"I understand, but Zhao Manyan is different; I don't care about him, but I can't risk putting you in danger!" Mo Fan immediately spilled the beans .
If Zhao Manyan in his bed heard those words, his missing soul would come straight away to teach Mo Fan a lesson . Why would he befriend such scum!?
"Let's not waste our time . Tell her, or else we're just a bunch of headless flies," said Mu Ningxue .
Mo Fan tried to convince Mu Ningxue, yet she insisted on doing do it her way . "I don't want anything to happen to you!" he blurted out .
"If you really think that, then do your best to help Zhao Manyan and I recover if anything happens, instead of saying that here," replied Mu Ningxue seriously .
Her gaze was determined and fearless; she had been mentally prepared since she first embarked on this journey . She had no intention of running away .
"Do you really trust me so much?" Mo Fan's gaze softened .
Mu Ningxue did not reply . She had no idea how to answer Mo Fan's question .
If she answered yes, Mo Fan would totally misunderstand her, yet the truth was, Mu Ningxue never doubted him . She believed if the same thing that happened to Zhao Manyan happened to her, he would give everything he had to help them recover .
What else could Mo Fan do after Mu Ningxue made her decision?
He returned to the slope where Miyata was still standing with her back toward them .
She turned around with the same innocent look . The truth was, Mo Fan was hoping that she would be wearing the rotten, terrifying face of a demon creature when she turned around . That way, Mo Fan could simply fight her instead of telling her Mu Ningxue's name!
Mo Fan never thought the situation would be this complicated . Not only was his friend in danger, he also had to place someone he cared a lot about in danger .
"Her name is Mu Ningxue," said Mo Fan .
For some reason, Mo Fan regretted as soon as he said the name .
He could sense Miyata smiling, it was an evil grin under her innocent look . It was most likely her true appearance .
However, Mo Fan knew it was meaningless to threaten her by saying something like, "If you dare harm her, I'll tear you into pieces . " Just saying it would not help in any way, it was more important to keep his promise .
"Alright, I'll look around at the back of the mountain . Perhaps I can find the cure to the strange disease," said Miyata with a faint smile . She even gave Mo Fan a slight bow .
"Wait, how am I going to… find you?" blurted out Mo Fan . Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
Miyata disappeared before Mo Fan could finish, leaving only the patches of wild chrysanthemums swaying slightly to the wind on the slope, releasing a fragrance similar to Miyata's into the air . . .
"Did she leave?" asked Mu Ningxue .
"Mm, I think she's the one," said Mo Fan worriedly .
He had to stick to Mu Ningxue closely from now onward . Zhao Manyan had most likely lost his soul since he was unable to see Miyata . However, since Mo Fan could see her, he could catch her red-handed if she tried to harm Mu Ningxue!
"It's useless to discuss it here, let's head back," said Mu Ningxue .
"Aren't you scared?" asked Mo Fan .
"I'm fine . . . "
"Is it because you believe that I definitely can save you?" asked Mo Fan .
"You're being annoying . "

Mu Ningxue and Mo Fan returned to the room where everyone was staying in to check out Zhao Manyan's condition .
Zhao Manyan was still the same, with Nan Rongni looking after him . The girl was using the Healing Element to maintain his body temperature, and prevent the cold from affecting his body .
Mo Fan touched Zhao Manyan's head and immediately felt the chill . It was below the acceptable body temperature for human . His life would be at risk if he was not a Magician .
"Nan Rongni, I'm sleeping with Mu Ningxue tonight," said Mo Fan .
Nan Rongni's eyes widened slightly before she nodded shyly and said, "Alright, I'll sleep with Nanyu . . . "
"Did you really have to say that?" snapped Mu Ningxue after hearing Mo Fan's words .
"I have to look after you!" Mo Fan did not think he had said anything wrong .
Everyone needed some rest . They had no choice but to leave everything until the next morning . Their best option was to look for the monks who had left for some kind of ritual . They would surely know something about Zhao Manyan's condition . Even if they could not find the monks, they could ask the nearby residents for more information . It was difficult to gather information when everyone was fast asleep .
"Nan Rongni, please don't take it wrongly . . . " Mu Ningxue knew Mo Fan would not leave her . She quickly explained the situation to Nan Rongni .
Nan Rongni agreed with Mu Ningxue's approach . If even she, a Healer had no clue how to deal with the strange disease, the only way left was to find its source .
"Why don't we all stay up for the night and look after Mu Ningxue?" suggested Nan Rongni .

A while later, everyone had gathered back in the room .
Jiang Shaoxu and Jiang Yu had returned too . It was quite late when they went down the mountain, thus they could not find the owner of the izakaya . They simply grabbed people on the streets, yet none of them knew anything about the temple . As such, they had no choice but to wait until tomorrow .
The other groups had already gone through the temple a few times, yet they had failed to find any clues . The only place left was the back of the mountain, but since the woods were currently pitch-black, they still had to wait until morning to investigate .
"You asshole, how could you place Mu Ningxue in danger? You're the reason all of this is happening!" Gong Yu went into a frenzy when he heard Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue's plan .
In Gong Yu's eyes, he was Mu Ningxue's escort . How could she risk her life without his permission?
"Just piss off if you don't want to help . No one needs to listen to your barking anyway," shot back Mo Fan .
Gong Yu was about to scold back when he was stopped by Ai Jiangtu .
"Enough! Mu Ningxue has already agreed with the plan . Let's wait for now . Mo Fan, you look after her . The rest should get some sleep . Everyone must be tired, too . We must rest up if we want to overcome this problem," said Ai Jiangtu .
"No way, I don't think Mo Fan alone can look after Mu Ningxue," said Gong Yu .
"Then you two will guard her tonight," said Ai Jiangtu .
