It's been raining for three days straight. Luckily, this little vixen is keeping him company and keeping him entertained; otherwise, Tang Miao probably wouldn't have been able to stay a single day longer...

Although there hasn't been any real progress, we can at least be considered "friends".

"The rain has stopped, we can set off now," said A Li, the attendant, as he returned from outside the cave.

"What, you're still going to Hua Village?" the short man asked, looking at the group.

"I definitely have to go," Mo Fan said.

Asha Ruiya nodded as well.

Tang Miao, however, had lost interest, because he knew that he would eventually have to part ways with this little vixen. Since that was the case, there was no need to delve any deeper, and besides, the Ancient Capital probably wasn't very peaceful lately, was it?

Tang Miao said seriously, "I won't go. As long as you have this garlic, the journey shouldn't be too difficult. I have a bad feeling about what happened in these villages. I need to go back to the Ancient Capital."

Why save Zhang Xiaohou? He came here to get to know Asha Ruiya. They've met and talked, and it's almost time to part ways. There's no point in continuing.

Mo Fan really wanted Tang Miao to come along, but what did the Ancient Capital matter to him? He had no intention of being a hero, and he had initially thought Tang Miao was someone like him. Now it seemed that wasn't the case...

But Tang Miao was ultimately acting for the greater good, so he really couldn't say anything...

"Then be careful."

Tang Miao nodded, and just as she was about to leave, the short man, looking like he wanted to take her along, clearly didn't want to go any further. After all, who knew if it would rain or something in this awful weather?

Without Tang Miao as their damage dealer, what good are these people, even if they're quite strong? What good is Asha Ruiya's beauty if they can't put their ideas into practice?

Upon hearing that the short man wanted to run away, Mo Fan, with the shrewdness of a businessman, grabbed him and said, "You can leave, but give me your money back! Otherwise, you can keep coming with me!"

Asking the short man for a refund? That would be worse than death for him... It was something he absolutely could not accept. So in the end, they left together and headed towards Hua Village ahead.

As for Tang Miao, he returned to the Ancient Capital. Judging from the current situation, the Black Vatican had not yet made a move. At least the rain hadn't started yet. What Tang Miao needed to do was to find the Monk who causes rain. Once he found him, the crisis in the Ancient Capital could be resolved.

He had no way of telling the higher-ups here that Salang was also here, waiting to see her Coronation Ceremony. However, he could go and capture the monk who brought down the special rain.

Since it was daytime and there were no undead appearing, and with Little Black providing transportation, Tang Miao arrived at the outskirts of the city in half a day. He didn't intend to enter the city, but instead began searching the surrounding area. Of course, Tang Miao had taken precautions to disguise himself. He acted as if he were there for sightseeing, without showing any intention of looking for anyone.

However, as night fell, Tang Miao had not found anything. He hadn't encountered a single bald monk, let alone the one who brought rain to the Black Vatican. As night approached, he returned to the city.

Because of the recent rampage caused by the undead, the area outside the city at night is extremely dangerous. As the saying goes, even a strong tiger can't withstand a pack of wolves. Moreover, and most importantly, a large number of undead gather outside this Ancient Capital at night. Even the students in the academy here rely on killing a large number of these undead to earn points and acquire resources.

Tang Miao wasn't interested in such things, as these were just minor matters. He needed to conserve his strength to search for the bald monk who was preparing for the ceremony. Tang Miao then left and returned to the city.

As night fell, the outer city wall of the Ancient Capital was extremely lively. Various elemental magical energies were constantly being released. It has to be said that the humans living here must be quite exhausted... After wandering around all day, Tang Miao quickly covered his ears and fell asleep.

For the next few days, Tang Miao searched every day for the Monk who causes rain, but no matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find a trace of him...

It was as if the other party wasn't even nearby, or perhaps they had sensed it?

Although there were no results for three consecutive days, Tang Miao did not give up. However, when he was about to leave the city on the fourth day, he saw Mo Fan and the others returning...

This kid's return is clearly not a good thing.

Because, if I remember correctly, the night he returned was the night the Black Vatican made its move.

After seeing Tang Miao, Mo Fan walked over and asked, "Boss, what are you planning to do?"

Since the monks can't be found right now, there's only one way to reduce casualties!

That means they managed to bring Deacon Huzin out! However, he couldn't say any of this out loud... Zhang Xiaohou wasn't suffering from amnesia; he just wanted to find that Black Vatican lackey here.

Tang Miao didn't waste any words and went straight to the guy named Hong Jun. Although he hadn't seen him before, among these people, besides the monkey, the short man, and Mo Fan, he was the only magician!

"Among your group, there are lackeys of the Black Vatican."

As soon as she finished speaking, Tang Miao kicked him to the ground and stomped hard on his chest.

Upon seeing this, the old village chief hurriedly said, "It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding! Hong Jun couldn't possibly be a member of the Black Vatican!"

"I can't be wrong about this disgusting stench." Tang Miao, as if pretending to have a dog's nose, looked at Hong Jun at his feet and said, "Whether he's a dog of the Black Vatican or not, a quick investigation will tell."

After saying that, Tang Miao picked up the unconscious Hong Jun and looked at Zhang Xiaohou, Mo Fan, and a girl next to Zhang Xiaohou, saying, "Come with me."

He knew Zhang Xiaohou was faking it, and he remembered that the guy seemed to have been under some kind of evil spell. However, the amnesia was fake, but if he really remembered something, his life would be over in an instant.

"Shorty, I'll trouble you to take them to a safe place first," Tang Miao instructed before leaving.

After saying that, he led the group away.

They headed towards Han Ji, the highest commander here. When they arrived at a courtyard, Tang Miao and his companions were stopped by two powerful mages.

"Why is it you, you brat?"

Before Tang Miao could speak, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind her.

Upon hearing this, Tang Miao and the others all turned around and looked over. When they saw who it was, Tang Miao's eyes lit up.
