Be prepared for the worst.

Yang Muyun had always dealt with things from this point of view. Because only by doing this would he be able to avoid losing his cool and feeling grief at the worst possible moment.

However, he didn't want the worst to happen in this matter.

"Sigh …" Yang Muyun let out a long sigh. His steps didn't stop as he continued to walk towards the direction of the third ferry, dock 18.

After thinking so much just now, it was just a guess. No matter if Cui Cui was at the 18th boat or in the Black Armored Army, Yang Muyun swore in his heart that he would not let her receive any harm.

If something were to happen to Cui Cui, he would definitely make that person suffer a fate worse than death. Thinking of this, Yang Muyun tightened his grip on his sword and said in his heart.

No matter who it was, if something happened that he did not want to see the most, then the tip of his sword would surely cause a river of blood to flow.

However, in the face of reality, he still did not know where Cui Cui was. Therefore, he decided to just hope that he could get lucky and go to dock at Three Halls 18. He would rather believe that Cui Cui Cui had been taken away by Cui Rong.

He had fought with Hong Lei before, and Hong Lei's true energy was extremely tyrannical. He should be a straightforward man and would not use such dirty tricks. However, there was no guarantee that Hong Lei would go all out to deal with him.

This time, Yang Muyun chose to believe in his intuition. He felt that this time, his intuition would be accurate. He didn't know where his confidence came from, but he knew that he had to protect Cui Cui well and bring him back.

Even though Cui Cui was not his sister and they had not gotten along before, after spending more than a month together, he had gotten used to having a little girl sticking to him and calling him brother.

At the same time, Yang Muyun didn't know that Cui Cui had already gotten used to being with him. With an older brother by his side, he could enjoy protection and a sense of safety.

Wasn't the relationship between people built from nothing? From strangers to acquaintances, from acquaintances to acquaintances, what is born in this process is called affection. Perhaps it was kinship, or perhaps it was love.

Yang Muyun thought for a moment. He lowered his head with a dark expression as he shuttled back and forth within the Shattered Leaf City.

Actually, he was still not very familiar with the roads of Shattered Leaf City. But now, he had a map of Shattered Leaf City in his hands, one that was extremely detailed.

This was also given to him by Ye Ning, the young shop owner from three days ago. Although Ye Ning's appearance was average, the map he gave Yang Muyun was extremely detailed.

Not only was every street and alleyway of Shattered Leaf City marked on this map, but every place, big or small, was marked with iconic buildings and some big shops. They might be used as a reference to distinguish directions.

However, Yang Muyun didn't think the same way after he finished reading it, because he also discovered that on this map, there were even signs showing the locations of most of the martial arts sects' residences in Shattered Leaf City.

In order to protect their own development, some large sects would usually hide their headquarters from the public.

Of course, this was also one of the reasons why they did not have much confidence. True sects would not do something like this.

Three Boats and Eighteen Docks were obviously not on this list. Its headquarters was openly located in Shattered Leaf City, but there was no way around it. Yang Muyun couldn't find it, so he had to rely on this map. Luckily, he had this map.

However, this also aroused another thought in Yang Muyun's mind, which was that this map that was so well-prepared could be considered a treasure. Not to mention other things, just the locations of the headquarters of the various sects in the martial arts world was enough for many people to rush in like a flock of ducks.

Then, how could Ye Ning, who possessed this map and could casually give such things to others, be an ordinary person?

With Yang Muyun's development, he could not see Ye Ning clearly anymore.

Could he be just a small bartender, a tavern owner? Who knows.

Yang Muyun followed the map and quickly walked on the streets of Shattered Leaf City.

He initially wanted to say that it would be faster to fly over a wall, but he immediately denied such a notion. After all, this was the southeast gate of the Great Yu Dynasty, a city with an army.

In broad daylight, it was too eye-catching to use lightness techniques to fly through the sky of Shattered Leaf City. Although the imperial government did not specifically ban those who lived in the martial arts world from going through the walls, it was still prudent.

That was why Yang Muyun chose to walk without even riding. His goal was too big, he had many enemies in this Shattered Leaf City, and it was already chaotic enough, he didn't want to cause trouble.

After an unknown amount of time, Yang Muyun turned left and right according to the map, and arrived at a relatively lively place.

He did not know anything about this place, but according to the map, the headquarters of Three Boats and Eighteen Docks was set up here.

"But... "Where is it?" Yang Muyun stood in the middle of the street, not knowing what to do. He scratched his head.

Although the map was good, it was still a map. It could not bring you directly to the place. It could only serve as a rough guide.

Yang Muyun casually glanced over and then his gaze gathered on an old beggar. He immediately walked over.

The old beggar was dressed in rags and was lazily basking in the sunlight at the corner of the wall. He looked very relaxed.

In front of him was a broken bowl, and beside him was a bunch of Erhu. From the looks of it, these were the guys that he was eating with.

Yang Muyun walked up to the old beggar's side and asked, "Old man, can I ask you something?"

Yang Muyun's intention was very simple, he wanted to ask for directions.

However, after he finished speaking, the old beggar still maintained his original appearance and completely ignored Yang Muyun.

Yang Muyun smiled and then took out two coins. He gently placed them in the old beggar's broken bowl and let out a "ding ding" sound.

Seemingly attracted by the sound of a copper coin dropping into a bowl, the old beggar slowly opened his eyes, looked at Yang Muyun and closed his eyes, "Take the money away, don't open today …"

The old beggar stopped moving after he finished speaking.

Yang Muyun was so infuriated that he was laughing. There were all kinds of people in this Shattered Leaf City, yet there were even beggars who didn't want money.

"Old man, I just want to ask for directions." Yang Muyun repeated with a gentle tone.

"Hmph." The old beggar grunted impatiently. "I've already said that I won't open for business today, so let's open for business. Don't block the old man's way while I bask in the sun."

"Sigh …" Yang Muyun took a step back and shook his head. He wasn't stingy enough to get angry at an old beggar.

At this moment, when Yang Muyun didn't notice it at all, the old beggar narrowed his eyes and secretly sized Yang Muyun up.

Of course, Yang Muyun didn't notice.
