Hostage
Editor: Henyee Translations
Qiao Mu waded through the water toward Duan Yue.
"How did you get tied here? Where's Murong Xun?" Qiao Mu looked at Duan Yue with incomprehension. She reached for the rope around his wrist and lightly tugged.
It was quite comical actually. After Mentor Murong escaped from the Spirit Binding Rope, she tied Duan Yue to the tree…
It was heaven's will that Duan Yue was so unlucky.
Duan Yue: 'Don't think I can't see you rejoicing in my misfortune just because you have a stoic face.'
Qiao Mu untied Duan Yue. As soon as his hands regained their freedom, he quickly dragged Qiao Mu through the water toward the shore.
The tides from the waters rose very fast. It nearly surpassed Qiao Mu's shoulders in a few minutes.
However, because the city's terrain was fairly high, the water would not flood into the city no matter how much it rose.
The duo had no choice but to swim toward the shore after a minute of wading.
