"A place that they shouldn't go? Where is that?" Nalan Lan asked.
"A place fraught with danger." Li Mu said, "At that time, I was not yet twenty years old when I came here. On the third day that I was here, I landed up in that place in my bewitched state."
"Then did anything happen to you that time?" Nalan Lan was shocked.
"Nothing." Li Mu said, "Because I was still not old enough, my Master always kept an eye on me the moment I came here. Seeing that I had left in the middle of the night, he followed after me and saw that I went to that place, so he quickly used a spirit tool to drag me back. Even speaking about it is weird. At that time, I was not lucid at all. However, after my Master dragged me back, I regained consciousness and did not even know why I went to that place at all."
"What is so dangerous about that place?" Nalan Lan asked.
"It's not just dangerous, it's absolutely devastating." Li Mu said, "After I regained consciousness, it was like I suddenly felt the aura of death. It was extremely scary. It was like just standing there would kill me. On the way back, I heard my Master say that there was a year in which ten men who were peak Spirit Paragons had gone down, but not a single one returned."
"Sss-"
Nalan Lan and her servant girl sucked in a breath. Ten peak Spirit Paragons had faced total annihilation. What kind of place was that!
"That's why I'm saying. No matter who that person is, as long as we get him there, it will have nothing to do with us. We will even be able to take revenge for you." Li Mu said.
"I" Nalan Lan hesitated again, as if she still didn't want to say it.
"Miss, that Sima You Yue has already done this kind of thing to you, what are you still hesitating for!" The servant girl spoke too quickly and accidentally revealed Sima You Yue's name.
"Sima You Yue? He was the one who violated you?" Li Mu asked.
Nalan Lan glared at the servant girl, as if she was blaming her for speaking too much.
Li Mu saw her glare at the servant girl and said, "Lan, don't be angry. She did not do it intentionally. However, is he really the one who violated you?"
Nalan Lan nodded, and her tears that she had fought so hard to hold back came flowing down again. She sobbed, "Since you already know, I won't keep it from you anymore. Do you know that he was from the Dong Chen kingdom?"
"I do." Lu Mu nodded.
"Actually, I'm from there as well. I've know him since we were young, but our relationship had always been bad." Nalan Lan said.
Li Mu never thought that Nalan Lan came from that land of exile, but it still did not affect the way he felt about her.
"In the Dong Chen kingdom, the Sima clan and the Nalan Lan have always been at odds. He was the one who killed my younger brother, and till now, I still haven't even seen his corpse." Nalan Lan cried, "I never thought that I would meet him again in Saint City. It was fine before, but today, he said that I was to look for him alone if I wanted to know what happened to my younger brother."
"You went to look for him alone?" Li Mu asked.
"Mm." Nalan Lan nodded, "I wanted too desperately to know what happened to my brother, so I went. I did not expect that he he would actually do this to me. Sob sob sob, if it was not for my servant girl who was worried about me and secretly followed after me, I'm afraid that I would"
