Chapter 313: Once You're Here, Don't Even Think of Leaving

At the entrance of the ancient building, at the foot of the steps.

A crowd stood densely around Yunmu, surrounding her tightly.

"Get out of my way; you are no match for me!" Yunmu's voice was icy and merciless.

At this moment, a path opened up in the crowd. A man in a black trench coat walked forward slowly. The bodyguards beside him held an umbrella for him, keeping him completely dry.

Under the umbrella, half of the man’s handsome face looked refined and elegant, but his lips curled into a sinister smile. The other half of his face, hidden in the shadows, bore a hideous scar.

Yunmu's pupils suddenly constricted, and a coldness flashed in her eyes.

Uncle Nanming Yun, Yun Chengsen.

He had also been one of the stumbling blocks within the Yun family who had opposed her countless times. She suspected that he might have played a part in her murder back then.

He glanced at Yunmu and the sealed box in her hand and laughed, "Why are you sneaking around when you came home to fetch something?"

Yunmu was startled and looked at Yun Chengsen in disbelief. Did he recognize her?

Yun Chengsen laughed heartily, "Yunmu, I've been observing you for a long time. I thought you wouldn’t return in this lifetime, but here we are, meeting so soon."

Indeed, he knew who she was!

"Were the people monitoring me in the capital yours?" Yunmu asked coldly.

Back then, she always felt someone was following her in secret, but they never showed themselves. She initially thought it was someone from the END organization, but now, hearing him speak, it must have been Yun Chengsen's men.

Yun Chengsen admitted openly, "Of course it was me. Otherwise, how could I confirm that you were my niece?"

Yunmu narrowed her beautiful eyes, "Since you know who I am, you should realize you can't stop me. I don't want to harm my own family, so step aside!"

Yun Chengsen laughed again, then shouted—

"Yunmu! You betrayed the Yun family long ago! It was your luck that you didn’t die in that chaos before, but now you dare to steal our family’s treasures to save the Yi family, who have been our sworn enemies for generations! This is another betrayal of the Yun family!"

"You keep making grave mistakes!"

"Today, I will take action on behalf of the Yun family and your father to get rid of you once and for all!"

As he spoke, a thunderous boom echoed.

At the same time, with a gesture, everyone attacked Yunmu together.

If she were still the Yunmu of old, he would not be confident in eliminating her.

But unfortunately, she was now trapped in a weak body, and her skills were far inferior to what they used to be. Moreover, she had even sent away Ji Ming, that obedient dog. She was truly courting death!

However, he had to thank Yunzhe.

That boy had secretly helped Yunmu divert the Yun family members, making it easier for her to retrieve the medicine. Little did he know that while the mantis was catching the cicada, the oriole was watching behind. Yun Chengsen could take advantage of the situation and eliminate her before anyone else knew she had returned.

Yunzhe thought too simply!

He wanted both the position of the Yun family head and to protect Yunmu. How could that be possible?

So he would help him get rid of this trouble!

All the men Yun Chengsen brought to besiege Yunmu in the ancient building were carefully selected experts.

Even at her peak, Yunmu might not have been able to escape unscathed, let alone now, when her skills were far below her former level.

After barely holding on for fifteen minutes, she was already wounded in several places!

At this rate, she would lose eventually!

Just then, a helicopter flew overhead.

Ji Ming sat in the helicopter, his handsome face unusually cold.

He looked down at the crowd and lowered a ladder from the sky.

Two bodyguards beside him quickly cleared the area around Yunmu with their guns.

"Come up!"

Ji Ming shouted to Yunmu!

Yunmu knew better than to delay. The best strategy was to leave!

As soon as Yunmu climbed aboard, Ji Ming swiftly piloted the helicopter, disappearing into the rain.

"My lord, what should we do?"

"Once you’re here, don’t even think of leaving!"

Yun Chengsen reached out, and someone immediately handed him a gun.

He aimed and pulled the trigger lightly.

In the next instant, Ji Ming grunted from the pilot’s seat.

Yunmu’s expression changed, "Ji Ming!"

Ji Ming pressed his hand against his waist and signaled his subordinate to take over the controls.

Yunmu immediately took out a first-aid kit and stopped the bleeding, her face grim. "We need to find a safe place to remove the bullet quickly. The location of the wound isn’t good!"

Ji Ming's face turned pale with pain, but his tone remained unusually calm. "It’s fine, I won’t die."

Normally, he would complain endlessly over a minor scratch or bruise, yet now, after being shot, he was still so composed and even tried to comfort Yun Mu, making her feel even more guilty.

"Aren't you supposed to wait for me at the highway exit? Why did you come back?"

Ji Ming turned around, his blue eyes piercing into hers as he sneered, "You planned this all along, didn’t you? You wanted to fight the Yun family alone, which is why you sent me away!"

Yun Mu’s brows furrowed slightly, but she did not deny it.

Ji Ming huffed and pulled his shirt up. "I brought you back to the Southern Abyss Continent, and I will be responsible for you until the end! You can never get rid of me in this life!"

Yun Mu opened her mouth in exasperation. "Why do you have to do this? The Yun family is not under my control anymore. Your actions today will surely anger them and bring trouble to your Ji family. Haven’t you thought about your own clan?"

"This is my business; you don’t need to worry about it!" Ji Ming said sternly.

At that moment, the alarm system in their helicopter went off.

Yun Mu quickly took out a pair of binoculars and looked behind them. "There’s a helicopter chasing us."

Ji Ming curled his lips coldly. "Then let’s take it down!"

As he spoke, dozens of bullets rained down on the approaching helicopter. A massive metal ball slammed into it, causing it to explode mid-air, flames shooting towards the gloomy sky.

Their own helicopter also came under attack, showing signs of crashing.

"Parachutes, jump!"

Yun Mu and Ji Ming, along with two bodyguards, immediately jumped, landing in the dense forest.

When Ji Ming landed, he scraped against a tree, causing his gunshot wound to reopen and bleed profusely.

Yun Mu’s brows furrowed as she squatted down to examine the wound on his abdomen. "No, you can’t follow me anymore. You two must take your Young Master away immediately!"

"I can’t leave you alone!" Ji Ming’s face had lost all color, and he could barely speak.

Yun Mu softened her voice, seeing his blue eyes dimming. "They will send more people after us. It’s not safe for me if you stay. Listen to me, go back to the Ji family and treat your wounds, then send someone to rescue me. Don’t worry, I won’t die."

She chose to parachute into the jungle precisely to prevent ambushes.

In the jungle, she had a better chance of escaping.

Ji Ming knew she was right, but he couldn’t bear to leave her.

The two were at an impasse when Yun Mu sensed someone approaching. Two blue beams began scanning her and Ji Ming...

"A Mu, run!"
