Chapter 231: Watching and Waiting
Hearing that the large black cat had gone missing, Hu Rui'an was not particularly worried, saying, "Miss Murong, there is no need to be overly concerned. That cat is a little unusual. It most likely left on its own. It should be fine."
Murong Xiaoya's expression became thoughtful. The large black cat did indeed seem extremely sharp and clever in its manner.
It was entirely possible that, sensing the imminent great battle between the Tianjin Guards and Falling God Peak, it had slipped away ahead of time.
"I will search a while longer. If I truly cannot find it, I will have no choice but to let it go for now."
Murong Xiaoya bowed lightly toward the two of them and then walked back into the trees.
And at that very moment, the sky in the distance suddenly brightened as a silver flame rose up in the night.
Even across the great distance between them, that brilliant silver light was clearly visible.
Both Hu Rui'an and Fu Qiwen saw it, and Fu Qiwen furrowed his brow slightly, saying, "If I am not mistaken, that should be in the direction of Hundred Refinements Peak. This flame signal is unusual and does not belong to the Tianjin Guards. It is likely from Falling God Peak itself. Could something have happened at Hundred Refinements Peak?"
Hearing this, a thoughtful look crossed Hu Rui'an's face, and then his expression shifted, saying, "Commander, surely you have not forgotten that the Eighth Prince went toward Hundred Refinements Peak. The way things look, His Highness has clearly begun to act."
