Fu Shinan heard this and felt even more admiration for Ji Zan. When it came to Chang’an being captured, Ji Zan was undoubtedly the most anxious, but he didn’t rush out in haste, demonstrating his remarkable composure. With the enemy lurking in the shadows and themselves exposed in the light, any chaos could provide the High Priest with an opportunity. If they acted recklessly, they might not only fail to rescue Chang’an but also endanger more people.

It was at this moment that Fu Shinan heard a faint sound near her ear. Something had flown in from the outside and stuck to the door.

Sun Han rushed over, finding a flying needle with a note attached to it. He carefully removed it and handed it to Ji Zan.

Ji Zan took the note, his expression turning grim.

Fu Shinan leaned in to take a look. The note read: “Bring the woman who can control me to the Misty Forest! ”

Fu Shinan glanced at Ji Zan and said directly, “Let’s go.”

However, Ji Zan stopped Fu Shinan and said, “I’ll go alone.”

Fu Shinan stared at him and said, “They specifically named me to go. If I don’t, Chang’an will be in danger! Besides, he can suppress our abilities, so Chang’an won’t stand a chance. Right now, only my psychic power can compete with his.”

Sun Han immediately said, “I’ll go too!”

Fu Shinan held him back, saying, “Look after the rest of the people. Your abilities are essential for our defense. Everyone still needs your protection.”

Hearing this, Sun Han stopped in his tracks but kept a furrowed brow, clearly despising the High Priest.

Ji Zan walked with Fu Shinan and expressed his guilt, “I’m sorry for troubling you at a time like this.”

Fu Shinan didn’t take kindly to his words, “What do you mean by that? Are you treating me like an outsider? Aren’t we teammates? If it were me who was captured, don’t you plan on rescuing me?”

Ji Zan replied, “No… It’s just that I wanted you to have a good night’s sleep. You haven’t rested properly in a long time…”

Fu Shinan turned her head to look into the distance, her gaze cold. “We can talk about resting later, but this High Priest must die today!” She even thought that if she didn’t fight to the death today, she wouldn’t go back! Instead of waiting passively and not knowing when she would be killed, it was better to take action. According to the High Priest’s thinking, he might even catch up with them using his wind abilities even if they tried to escape.

Ji Zan nodded. Although they were talking, their steps didn’t slow down at all. They soon arrived at the Misty Forest.

Ji Zan pulled Fu Shinan behind him and shouted loudly into the woods, “We’re here, release the child!”

“Uncle!” Xiao Chang’an’s voice came from the Misty Forest.

Fu Shinan followed the voice, but the mist blocked her view, and she couldn’t see anything clearly.

Then, the High Priest’s voice sounded from inside, “Kneel there without moving, and let that woman strip naked and come over.”

A murderous intent welled up in Ji Zan’s eyes, and he was about to charge into the forest.

Fu Shinan quickly grabbed him and whispered in his ear, “I can’t control him without visibility! You need to be patient, lure him out, and we can negotiate.”

Ji Zan’s gaze darkened. He despised being threatened more than anything else in his life.

Perhaps seeing that they weren’t making a move, the High Priest threw something out directly.

Ji Zan leaned aside to dodge it, and the object on the ground turned out to be Xiao Chang’an’s shoe!

The High Priest shouted, “I don’t have that much patience. If you delay again, next time I’ll throw this brat’s foot! ”

Xiao Chang’an was immediately frightened and started crying, “Uncle, save me… Waaah…”

Hearing Xiao Chang’an’s crying, Ji Zan clenched his fist tightly, his wrist veins bulging, and then he knelt down.

Fu Shinan gritted her teeth and unzipped her tracksuit…

Ji Zan, kneeling on the ground, looked at the scattered clothes on the ground, and his anger was about to consume him.

The high priest laughed.” Hurry up and take off your clothes. Damn it, you’re still dawdling when you’re taking off your clothes! Strip naked and walk forward.”

Fu Shinan cursed the high priest in her heart. She stripped to her underwear and looked up.” This is not suitable for children. If you want me to go in naked,

I can but send the child out first.”

“Do you think you can negotiate with me now?” The high priest sneered.

“Why not?” Fu Shinan braced herself and asked. “I’m a woman. To you, I’m more useful than a child, right?”

“Stop pretending! Do you think I don’t know what you’re thinking? You’re just trying to lure me out and control me! I’ve already been deceived by you several times. Do you think I’m stupid to believe you? Hurry up and take it off!” As he spoke, he pinched Chang ‘an’s flesh. Xiao Chang’an was in pain and started crying again….
