Chapter Forty-Five Yun'er Gets Caught

  Both plans unfolded simultaneously, and He's representative was the entire He family, so his resources and manpower were extremely rich. Soon, this suburban warehouse was set up as a trap, with no signs of it on the outside.

  On the other hand, Huo Yan and others also started their own actions. Huo Yan did not appear in person, nor did other young masters of the Huo family. Because they were worried that if they appeared in person, it would lead to some bad things.

  These days, the family's surveillance of these people has become increasingly strict. Yesterday, they still spent a lot of effort and only a few people managed to sneak out and contact He Yao with Huo Yan. Now, in order for the plan to proceed smoothly, no one is taking personal action. The people who are acting are just mercenaries on the surface.

  The next day at noon, Huo Yun'er indeed sneaked out of the family again. These days, Huo Yun'er often did this kind of thing, and as time went on, with nothing much happening, the higher-ups in the family temporarily didn't have time to bother with her either.

  They didn't think anyone would dare to lay a hand on Huo Yun'er. With the current strength of the Huo family, none of the other families dared to make any rash moves. Huo Yun'er simply brought her personal maid and came out onto the main street.

  "Miss, miss, slow down. Is this not a bit too much? Always sneaking out to play without telling the master of the house, won't we get scolded when we go back?" As a maid, she couldn't help but worry about this. Maybe Ho Yun'er wouldn't mind, but if something happened and she hadn't taken good care of the miss, then she would have to take responsibility herself.

  A few days ago, because of He Yun'er secretly running out, these servants were not spared from being lectured by Huo Kai. If it weren't for He Yun'er speaking up for them, they would still be doing odd jobs somewhere else.

  Huo Yun'er had an indifferent expression: "Xiao Cui, what are you afraid of? It's not like we haven't been discovered before. At most, they'll just scold me a couple of times, it's nothing." Huo Yun'er didn't care about these things at all, and Xiao Cui's face showed an even heavier look of helplessness.

  No choice, he could only follow Huo Yun'er, after all, she was the personal maid. As the eldest miss, of course, there wouldn't be any substantial punishment. With the upcoming enrollment in the Imperial City Academy, the family would not dare to do anything to her, but it was different for these lower-ranking servants. The young misses and masters were treated differently; if it were a master, things wouldn't have been so arbitrary.

  At this moment, Huo Yun'er suddenly came to a stall, and there was only one box on the stall. Inside the box, there was a butterfly. The butterfly was very beautiful and still alive. In an instant, it attracted Huo Yun'er's gaze.

  "Wow, it's a psychedelic butterfly. I didn't expect to see such a rare species here." The psychedelic butterfly is a renowned species of butterfly that possesses the spiritual power of a spiritual beast, but has no attacking ability whatsoever.

  The only ability of the Illusory Butterfly is to release spiritual power and create illusions. However, as a bug-type spirit beast, its spiritual power is not very strong, so at most it can only create some special environments for people to play with. Even ordinary people are not afraid of the Illusory Butterfly. On the contrary, due to its beautiful and elegant appearance, once discovered, it will be caught by humans.

  Therefore, the Illusory Butterfly was said to be very common in the past, but now it is rarely seen. This one Illusory Butterfly was also the first one that Huo Yun'er had ever seen. At a glance, she felt that it was exceptionally beautiful.

  A large number of illusions surrounded him, all of which were inadvertently created by the spiritual release of the Illusory Butterfly. Most of them were related to flowers and were exceptionally beautiful. Not to mention Huo Yun'er, but many girls around her were also attracted. The lethal power of the Illusory Butterfly on girls was so great. If they waited a little longer, even more people would be attracted over.

  "What a beautiful butterfly, vendor, how much does this butterfly cost?" At this time, a woman who couldn't help but ask first spoke up. Whoever it was, they all hoped to own such a beautiful butterfly.

  The stall owner said calmly, "One hundred spirit stones, non-negotiable." One sentence was enough to shut everyone up. One hundred spirit stones were nothing for a large family, but for ordinary people like them, it was a different story.

  The crowd showed disappointed eyes, pitifully looking at the stall owner: "You'd better be kind and cheaper, one hundred spirit stones, we really can't afford it. How about one spirit stone, or two?" Everyone surrounded the stall owner, constantly begging, but unfortunately, the stall owner ignored them. If it were placed elsewhere, not to mention one hundred spirit stones, even a thousand would have buyers.

  At this moment, Huo Yun'er suddenly said: "One hundred spiritual stones? I'll buy them from you." As she spoke, Huo Yun'er casually pulled out a receipt, the price on which was exactly one hundred spiritual stones.

  These vouchers were specially made using special means, the purpose is to prevent a large number of spirit stones from being placed on the body. For Huo Yun'er, a mere hundred spirit stones are nothing. After paying the bill, Huo Yun'er picked up the box and was about to leave.

  Others looked at Huo Yun'er with envy, thinking to themselves that they wished they were the ones holding the box. Unfortunately, the rare butterfly had been bought by someone else just like that. Who knew, but at this moment, the stall owner suddenly spoke up and said: "Miss, please wait a minute, I have something to say to you."

  Huo Yun'er stopped with a strange expression, wanting to hear what he had to say. The man beckoned him to follow and changed to a deserted place, saying in a low voice: "This young lady is very generous, I don't know if you like insects, it's a special and rare kind of insect."

  Upon hearing this, Huo Yun'er's eyes lit up: "Is that insect good-looking? Is it really very rare?" During this time spent with Huo Hai, Huo Yun'er's aversion to insects had been decreasing, and she even showed a tendency to like beautiful insects.

  That person smiled in his heart: "Hmph, the news was indeed correct. These two siblings have an unusual fondness for insects." But on the surface, he didn't slow down at all: "Of course, of course. If it weren't rare and valuable, I wouldn't be able to take it out to sell. I'm also looking at Miss's rough hands being generous, that's why I told you. If it were someone else, I wouldn't have this idea."

  "This is quite normal," said Huo Yun'er, nodding her head and asking, "Is the insect on you? Take it out and let me see. If it's good-looking, I'll buy it. The spirit stone isn't a problem." To Huo Yun'er, a few spirit stones were truly nothing.

  The man in black lowered his voice: "I don't have the thing on me, there are too many people here, it's not safe. Please come with me, miss, we'll change locations to make the transaction. Don't worry, miss, with your identity, someone like me wouldn't dare do anything to you."

  Huo Yun'er's vigilance dissipated a lot, and then followed the man in black to move forward. Behind her, Xiao Cui had an anxious face, pulling Huo Yun'er's clothes, and said in a low voice: "Miss, let's go back, it's just a bug, what if something happens to you." Xiao Cui began to secretly scold her young master for teaching the miss like this.

  Xiao Cui knew that Yun'er Miss was very afraid of insects before, and she was afraid of all kinds of insects. Since Mr. Huo Hai raised many insects, the miss didn't fear them as much anymore, and even had some liking for them. Sometimes she would even catch them herself.

  Often caught a small insect with a nice cry, and then raised in Huo Hai's grass cage. It can be said that Huo Hai's yard has raised a large number of insects, and now Huo Yun'er's yard also raises many small insects.

  "It's nothing, we're just going shopping, it doesn't matter... Hmm, why is my head so dizzy? Little Cui, how did you fall down?" Huo Yun'er felt a wave of dizziness and turned her head to see that Little Cui had actually fainted. Unfortunately, everything went black before she could react, and she also passed out. The man in black turned his head around, still holding a smoking bamboo tube in his hand.

  "Hmm, the plan is a success. Hurry up, don't waste any more time. Are you guys ready on your end? We need to go report back now." The man in black said one sentence, and immediately several other people dressed in the same black attire appeared beside him.

  The first one whispered, "Don't worry, everything is ready. You can go and report now. Hmph, if you're discovered, you'll be the ones to suffer." The people behind them had already taken out ropes and tied up the two of them. Then they put sacks over their heads and carried them away. Their movements were extremely swift, without any hesitation or delay. It was as if they had done this many times before.

  "It's all right, we won't have any problems on our end. I hope you people don't make any mistakes either. Otherwise... humph, you won't be having a good time." He put away the bamboo tube and said in a cold voice, the mysterious smoke inside this tube is not cheap at all.

  The crowd dispersed quickly, and soon they went their separate ways. Not long after, a black-clad figure appeared outside the courtyard of Huo Hai's residence. The figure slowly waited while keeping an eye on the patrolling experts of the Huo family outside.

  Huo Hai's courtyard was originally close to the outside street, making it easier to approach. There were not a few patrolling personnel here, but after all, it was a big street, and they didn't dare to be too blatant. These people still had gaps between each other.

  When everyone disappeared in the realization of an instant, the man in black knew his chance had come. He quickly ran to the outside of the courtyard and casually threw something over the wall. Then he turned around and ran into the darkness. At the same time, another patrol team slowly walked out from the side. If the man in black had left a little later, he would have been discovered by them.

  These days, Huo Hai's life has been extremely quiet, to the point of being too quiet. To protect Huo Hai, no one is allowed to approach his courtyard half a step. Even food is delivered by special personnel.

  Such days, Huo Hai felt a bit bored, but there was no way about it. Now he just thought that he would soon arrive at the Imperial City Academy, so that he could be freer. These past few days, even Yun'er sister couldn't come in. Under helplessness, Huo Hai had no choice but to raise insects and cultivate Gu. Xing Gu had already been manufactured into several jars, it was unknown how many would be born this time.
