The great priest saw what happened just now. The great priest thought that Duguren's appearance could delay more time, but who knew that Duguren was so cowardly that the matter was over so easily.

However, this also gave the high priest an opportunity. Just now, Duguren and Murong Ningyue were completely incompatible with water and fire, and this could be taken advantage of. Thinking of this, the high priest couldn't help but smile a strange smile.

When the sky gradually became darker, Murong Ningyue stopped rushing to the road and took Ye Xiaobao and Ye Qingyun to find a dilapidated temple on the side of the road to rest for a while.

In order to rush back to Xuyang City as soon as possible, Murong Ningyue had not stopped passing by other cities before. Fortunately, she happened to pass by a dilapidated temple, otherwise they would have to sleep in the wilderness.

The high priest suddenly spoke: "Princess, you can rest here first. I still have some things to deal with. I will come to you tomorrow morning!"

After the high priest said this, he left in a hurry. Murong Ningyue couldn't help but frowned slightly when she saw this, and at the same time she started to think secretly in her heart.

The great priest followed him all the way, with the obvious purpose of the ferocious beast's corpse. However, there is still a long way to go from Xuyang City, but the great priest suddenly wants to leave. Could it be that he gave up the ferocious beast's corpse?

Murong Ningyue couldn't think of any reason for this for a while, but the existence of the high priest would not have much impact on Murong Ningyue's plan. Regardless of whether the high priest was in or not, Murong Ningyue would return to Xuyang City as soon as possible according to the original plan.

"You two should rest quickly! We will set off tomorrow morning!"

Murong Ningyue asked Ye Xiaobao and Ye Qingyun to go to bed quickly, and Murong Ningyue himself quickly entered sleep. This kind of long-distance travel still consumed a lot of physical strength. Even Murong Ningyue had to ensure that he had enough sleep.

Just when Murong Ningyue and others fell asleep, the high priest rushed to the inn where Duguren lived. When the high priest found Duguren, Duguren looked at the high priest with a look of alert.

Duguren did not know the identity of the high priest. When there was a dispute with Murong Ningyue, the high priest always stood at Murong Ningyue. Therefore, Duguren naturally regarded the high priest as Murong Ningyue's accomplice. At this time, Duguren would not have any good face when he saw Duguren appear.

"What are you doing when you come to find this young master? Did that woman Murong Ningyue ask you to come?"

Facing Duguren's questioning, the priest smiled and said, "Young Master, don't get me wrong! The relationship between me and Murong Ningyue is not as accurate as you imagine. Come on, I have a lot of hatred between me and Murong Ningyue!"

"Hmm? Do you think this young master is a fool? If you have a grudge against Murong Ningyue, you will always be with Murong Ningyue?"

The high priest quickly explained: "Young Master, you don't know anything. Murong Ningyue is now the eldest princess of Qingchi Country. My identity is quite special. Of course, I am not afraid of Murong Ningyue, but if she really does what she does, it will likely cause disputes between the two countries. Do you understand that?"
