Chapter 918 Found The Secret Path (Part Two)

    Chapter 918 Found The Secret Path (Part Two)


    "Yes, everything is ready. We will leave soon."


    "You can rest assured. I will order people to pretend that you are still in the army to confuse the


    enemy," Wanda Murong added. Although she had a weak body, she had a sophisticated mind. That


    was a blessing in disguise.


    After dressing up to cover their true identities, Harper and Kile quietly left and headed for their


    destination. On the other side, Matthew was looking at the map and investigating the road he had


    found.


    "Your Highness, we''ve been wandering around here for a long time. Wouldn''t it be toote for us to go


    back to Dragon Pass?" Barry asked with a worried face. "Emperor Rndo has reached Dragon Pass.


    If we can''t go back there, I''m afraid that Marquis Shawn will not be able to hold on."


    "Don''t worry. Felton is still there. He will take care of that," Matthew replied in a t tone. He didn''t


    worry about Dragon Pass at all. He was now focusing on studying the very path. It was recorded that it


    led straight to Dragon Pass, but this fact was rarely known. Harper once read the record about this path


    and shared this information with him. If he could find this secret path, it would be very beneficial to him.


    "Mister Felton?" Barry repeated. On hearing this, he remembered Felton who was weak in body yet


    cunning in mind. Then he fell into silence. Yes, Felton was still at Dragon Pass. What was more, he


    trusted that his emperor would never allow Dragon Pass to be controlled by Rndo. The emperor


    surely had already sent people to support Dragon Pass. Even though Rndo led the army to attack in


    person, it would not be an easy job to take over Dragon Pass.


    "Send someone to search for this path again. We must find it!" Matthew immediately gave an order to


    his men. If they found the very path, they could use this shortcut and arrive at Dragon Pass quickly.


    That way, they would strike Rndo off guard all of a sudden. Now, Matthew was very angry. He would


    do whatever he could to Rndo after what Rndo had done to him and Harper.


    "Yes, Your Highness."


    The secret guards continued to go deep into the mountains, searching for the legendary shortcut. They


    had already searched for five or six days here, but still couldn''t find any trace. They were afraid that


    they could not afford to waste time searching for that path anymore. Things might go worse.


    "What''s wrong with His Highness? Why does he have to find this path?" Jack asked in confusion. If it


    were not for the fact that they were ordered to search for this path, they could have arrived at Dragon


    Pass long ago.


    "He must have his own reason for this. We don''t need to guess it. All we need to do is follow his


    orders," Barry replied as he continued his search. This path should be very important. That was why


    Matthew had worked so hard to find it.


    Jack pressed his lips. "I''m so envious of Fred. It must be very fun to stay with Lady Harper."


    "What? Fun?" When Barry heard hisments, the corners of his eyes twitched a bit. He didn''t think it


    was fun to follow Harper all the time. He had heard that the twelve secret guards had been tricked into


    the Labyrinth Swamp by her once. Although everyone''s strength had been improved since then, they


    all looked frightened when speaking of what happened in the swamp as if they didn''t want to go there


    again. It could be seen that it might be very fun to stay with Harper, but it sometimes meant risking


    one''s life to follow her.


    At the moment, Jack was bing bored and began to beat the weeds with a stick impatiently. "Of


    course it''s fun staying with her. There are always various interesting things happening around her, both


    dangerous and exciting. That is just so... Ouch!"


    Jack cried out miserably as hegged behind. Hearing that, Barry turned his head but did not see any


    trace of Jack. He couldn''t help but feel a chill in his heart. Could it be an enemy who was attacking


    him? "Jack, Jack, where are you?"


    It turned out that Jack identally slipped down and fell directly into the dense grass. He rolled down


    along the slope for a long time until he finally stopped and felt dizzy.


    "Barry, try to pull me up," Jack cried out as he rubbed his head with his hand. But after waiting for a


    long time, he did not receive any response. He immediately grew alert and began to check his


    surroundings. Then, he noticed that he had fallen into a strange valley. Both the two sides were


    mountains, except for a narrow and hidden path in the middle. The path was covered by weeds. As a


    result, people rarely noticed it.


    "Oh! This is it! This should be the path His Highness is searching for!" Jack murmured joyfully. He then


    immediately went back. After he pulled away the thick weeds, he saw Barry was looking for him


    everywhere.


    "Barry! I found it! I found the secret passage His Highness mentioned! Go inform him now!" shouted


    Jack with excitement.


    At first, Barry had been worried about the safety of Jack. When he saw that Jack popped out from


    nowhere with a dirty face and told him excitedly that he had found the shortcut mentioned by Matthew,


    he was both surprised and delighted. Then he immediately went back and reported the news to


    Matthew.


    When Matthew came with his men, he noticed the path that had been covered in the grass. He finally


    understood that no wonder they hadn''t found it. If it hadn''t been for Jack''s reckless behavior, he would


    never have thought that this path was a downward one even after they had searched the whole ce


    thoroughly.


    "Let''s go down to explore the way," Matthew ordered at once.


    "Yes, Your Highness."


    They pulled apart the grass and went down one by one. Looking at the man-made path, they could not


    help but feel happy. It seemed that this was exactly the path they had been looking for.


    All of a sudden, Matthew noticed a stone tablet by the roadside, and read the words carefully. After he


    finished reading it, he was relieved. "This is indeed the path we are looking for. It''s time for us to go to


    Dragon Pass."


    Hearing that, everybody heaved a sigh of relief. They then turned around and were about to climb up.


    However, when they were halfway through the climbing, Matthew asked,


    "What are you doing?"


    "We are going up so we can go to Dragon Pass," one of the secret guards answered in a careful tone.

    "The path leading to Dragon Pass is here!" We should go along this way," Matthew said slowly, pointing


    to the winding path in the valley.
