Chapter 295

Along the way, she thought of many things.

She knew she had to tell her father what had happened at Mount Yandang.

Su Yang is not someone to be trifled with; it's said he is highly valued by Qin Qin Pengcheng.

Just thinking about it gave Liu Liu Mengyun a headache.

But she believed that with her father's connections in the Southwest Military Department, there must be a way to resolve this!

"Young Lady, Changwu City is almost here!"

"Mm!"

Near the entrance to Changwu City, Liu Mengyun forced herself to stand, struggling to slide off the Lei Yunniao's wing.

"Young Lady, do you need me to help you?"

"Thank you, no, I can still walk!"

Liu Mengyun staggered toward the entrance of Changwu City; the star-rank beast tamer sighed helplessly and followed beside her.

If Liu Liu Mengyun collapsed, he could at least support her slightly.

Liu Liu Mengyun is the most beloved daughter of Seeing Liu Long; if he could win her favor,

his rise to glory would come in an instant!

After walking a few steps toward the main gate of Changwu City, Liu Mengyun noticed the soldiers on guard staring at her.

Liu Mengyun is highly known in Changwu City.

Add to that her status, position, strength, and beauty—wherever she went, she drew constant attention.

She had long grown used to it!

But she sharply noticed—the soldiers' gazes at her… were wrong.

"Young Lady, what's wrong? Do you need me to help you?"

"Summon the Lei Yunniao, take me away—something's wrong!"

If something's wrong, the first thing to do is retreat.

"What's wrong?" The star-rank beast tamer glanced at the city gate, then at the civilians coming and going, sensing nothing amiss. "Young Lady, let's go to the Precious Pavilion—once we're there, you can be treated!"

Liu Liu Mengyun insisted: "Hurry, take me away!"

The star-rank beast tamer was utterly confused—he didn't know what had gotten into his Young Lady!

At that moment, three platinum-rank flying beast companions appeared above them.

"None of you are leaving!"

From the city gate, a tall, thin officer with a grotesque scar on his face walked out slowly.

The moment Liu Liu Mengyun saw him, her escape plan vanished.

Zhou Wu, a captain-rank officer, star-rank beast tamer, formerly of the Emergency Unit, now assigned to the City Guard.

Fully responsible for defense and public order in the northern district of Changwu City.

Of the four star-rank beast tamers stationed to guard the four outer districts of Changwu City, Zhou Wu is the strongest!

Because they face Mount Yandang!

"You're Liu Liu Mengyun, right? And you, beside her—put on shackles and go straight to prison!"

Ordinary star-rank beast tamers don't deserve names!

Two ordinary soldiers ran over dragging shackles.

Liu Liu Mengyun had never suffered such humiliation; she took a deep breath and said: "Captain Zhou, do you know if my father is aware of your arrest of me?"

"I'm taking you to see your father!"

"What do you mean?"

Liu Liu Mengyun understood the implication in Zhou Wu's words.

But she couldn't believe her father had been arrested!

Zhou Wu turned and walked slowly toward the gate—he was too lazy to waste words on Liu Liu Mengyun.

"You can resist arrest—I don't care much for catching people anyway…"

Two soldiers armed with crystal rifles stepped nervously toward Liu Liu Mengyun and the other star-rank beast tamer.

Liu Liu Mengyun stared at Zhou Wu's back, then extended her hands and submitted quietly to being shackled.

"Young Lady!"

The star-rank beast tamer cried out in frustration.

"Do you dare to run?"

The Precious Pavilion star-rank beast tamer glanced at the sky and fell silent.

He had no confidence at all against Zhou Wu.

Among star-rank beast tamers, there is still a vast gap in strength.

"Go inside and behave—military won't kill people randomly."

"Mm!"

They were loaded onto a military truck, guarded by a squad of armed soldiers.

The vehicle lurched toward the prison.

Not long after, Liu Liu Mengyun saw the grand, luxurious building of the Precious Pavilion.

When the Precious Pavilion chose its location, it targeted the northern district of Changwu City's outer walls—beast tamers returning from Mount Yandang could reach the Precious Pavilion building quickly after entering through Beimen.

When Liu Liu Mengyun saw the Precious Pavilion building, her pupils contracted sharply.

She gripped the truck's railing tightly, staring at the ruined, bomb-blasted structure before her, unable to believe her eyes.

"How is this possible!"

Even the Star-Rank Beast Tamer beside him was stunned.

Soon, they saw roadblocks, seals, and soldiers and Beast Tamers stationed beyond the cordon.

When she saw the members of the Emergency Unit, Liu Mengyun felt an inexplicable sense of guilt.

"Big brother, could you tell me what happened with the Treasure Pavilion?"

The soldier beside her was in excellent spirits at such a humble question from her.

Liu Mengyun, after all, was a famous beauty from Wucheng, and most of these soldiers knew her.

Besides, the origin of this matter wasn't a secret—it was known to everyone in Wucheng!

Soon, the entire southwest might know as well.

"This is your Treasure Pavilion's fault!" the soldier said sternly. "Your Treasure Pavilion members attempted to murder members of the Emergency Unit on Yandang, which is why they were arrested!"

Speaking of this, the soldier also thought the Treasure Pavilion deserved it.

The military handled this beautifully!

Hearing the soldier's words, Liu Mengyun turned ashen.

So, the entire Treasure Pavilion had been dragged down by her.

Tears swirled in her eyes.

But they never fell.

When Liu Mengyun was brought back to Wucheng, the Storm Eagle assigned to nearby reconnaissance also spotted her.

"She's been brought back?"

Standing high above, Su Yang gazed down at the military truck on the street, no bigger than a matchbox.

He stroked the Storm Eagle's feathers and said, "Come to think of it, I'm curious about the ice-type beast companion she carries."

"Will she be executed by firing squad? Should I suggest cannon execution instead? That'd be more thrilling!" Su Yang lay back on the Storm Eagle's back. "Maybe I could even temporarily serve as the executioner!"

At this point, Su Yang's hatred for the woman had dwindled to little.

Either way the military decided, Su Yang was satisfied—his anger had mostly dissipated.
