Chapter 228: A Battle Alone

The small hotel in the capital was the cheapest place to stay. There were all kinds of people living here. Yunbao and Lily, the two children in exquisite dresses, were especially eye-catching.
When the hotel owner saw the two of them run out, he wondered if his eyes were playing tricks on him. Why would two children appear in his shop?
Yunbao and Lily had always been in and out of the Gu family’s car, so they did not know the road to the capital. They could only run forward aimlessly.
The amethyst bracelet was currently in a deep sleep. This was destined to be Yunbao’s battle alone.
Lily was older than Yunbao, after all. She knew what to do when she got lost. She said, “We have to run to a crowded place first, then get the adults to call the police and send us home.”
Yunbao nodded and looked up to find a crowded place However, such small hotels were on the edge of the city. During the day, these people who stayed in small hotels went out to earn a living. The streets looked empty.
The two children had no sense of direction and could only run forward without any clue. At this moment, Mao Feng returned to the hotel.
Chen Yue rushed over and said, “Those two brats haven’t been out for long.
You should be able to catch them.”
Mao Feng did not speak to her. He focused on sensing the operation of the array formation at the door. He wanted to rely on the energy fluctuation left behind by Yunbao to find her.
Mao Feng was extremely fast. In almost an instant, he finished sensing and ran out. He had to capture the two children before they were discovered.
The Gu family had joined forces with the other two aristocratic clans to set up a trap. If the whereabouts of the two kids were exposed, he would not be able to escape even if he could take Yunbao as a hostage.
Yunbao and Lily ran on their short legs. Neither of them knew where to go, but neither of them dared to stop.
Just as Lily could not run anymore and stopped to rest, Mao Feng’s energy covered the two of them. Yunbao took out her wand and was about to counterattack, but under the powerful energy, her magic attack power was greatly reduced. It was like scratching an itch for Mao Feng.
Mao Feng walked up to Yunbao and Lily and said, “I underestimated your learning ability. You can solve my array formation so quickly. As expected of Gu Teng’s daughter.”
Yunbao used her energy to protect herself and Lily. She looked at Mao Feng stubbornly and said, “You’re a bad person who wants to take me and Lily away.”
“I’m not a bad person.” Mao Feng sighed. “When your mother comes back to me, I can bring you overseas to live.”
Mao Feng knew how much Gu Teng loved her daughter, so he could also accept Yunbao generously, provided that Gu Teng was willing to stay by his side.
Yunbao widened her eyes and said, “Of course my mother has to be with Dad. She won’t be by your side.”
When Mao Feng heard this, he said angrily, “Your father snatched Gu Teng away from me. I’m just taking back my own things!’
Yunbao stood in front of Lily to protect her. She did not give in to Mao Feng’s anger. “My mother chose my father. You’re the one who wants to snatch my mother away now.”
Mao Feng had never interacted with children before. He did not know that children all had their own logic and reasoning. It was definitely impossible to reason with them, even if it was a smart child like Yunbao.
He only felt a headache when he heard Yunbao’s words. He did not want to argue with her about these things anymore and directly attacked to break Yunbao’s energy shield.
Lily saw this and transferred her energy to Yunbao. Although she was not very good at spells, she had inherited the bloodline of the wizard. Moreover, the energy that had been taken away had returned to her body. Now, Lily did not lack energy at all.
With Lily’s help, Mao Feng felt a hindrance. He did not expect Devon’s daughter to be so powerful. If she had learned magic from Devon from the beginning, she would have achieved a lot.
However, Mao Feng’s spell was not something Yunbao could compare to. Soon, Yunbao’s energy shield was broken. Lily subconsciously hugged Yunbao to protect her.
Yunbao took out her wand and attacked Mao Feng, but Mao Feng resolved them one by one. Just when Yunbao did not know what to do, Lily said,
“Yunbao, if you can’t hold on, let’s surrender. I don’t want to see you get hurt.”
Lily’s tears fell. She did not want to be brought back to see her father. She knew that she would be beaten up when she returned, but this wizard’s spells were too high. If she continued to resist, Yunbao would definitely be injured..
