Master's Chief Disciple

Chapter 258: They are just a few rats that can’t make any big waves!

Mu Qing and Mu Huayan looked at each other and used their spiritual power to remove the hidden weapon. Suddenly, the hidden weapon turned into a lotus and emitted poisonous green smoke.

"The man just now came to deliver a letter. His cultivation is at least not lower than the Extreme Desolation Realm!" Mu Huayan said calmly and opened a blue barrier to cover the poisonous fog.

After a moment, a few lines of blood-red words floated in the air, "This is just a small gift, not a token of respect!"

"I advise you not to wade into this muddy water again!"

"Because you are just a few rats who can't make any big waves!"

The last sentence made Mu Huayan so angry that she wanted to release her own restraints, "How dare you threaten and humiliate me, Mu Huayan, if it weren't for me..."

Mu Qing hugged her from behind and covered her mouth and said a lot of words until Mu Huayan gradually calmed down. Then Mu Qing immediately took out a bag of fairy fruit and handed it to her.

She had just forgotten what her enemy had said and started to eat the fairy fruit. She sat on the windowsill with one leg slightly bent, enjoying the spring scenery comfortably.

Mu Huayan suddenly thought of something and stood up abruptly, frowning slightly, "How did they know that we were the ones who waded into the muddy water!"

The others were also very surprised when they heard this. Even though their aura and appearance had been exposed in the previous fight, their positions could not be locked down so quickly.

"There are only three ways to lock our position. The first is the tracking technique, the second is that there is an enemy inside Marquis An's Mansion, and the third is that the person controlling everything behind the scenes must be a quasi-Immortal Emperor. Everything that happens in the Metaverse is visible to him." Mu Huayan analyzed carefully.

Mu Qing was somewhat confused and asked, "Then how did they find our trace?"

"The three methods Miss Mu mentioned can all help us find our whereabouts. Since our position has been exposed, why don't we find the enemies in the mansion first?" Xin Ce said.

Mu Huayan nodded and continued, "The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. This situation is the most disadvantageous for us."

Mu Huayan hated the person who destroyed her antidote. She continued to mutter, "I originally wanted to give the antidote I developed to Han Qixi and others who were out there, but they ended up destroying it."

Mu Qing hugged her and handed her a fairy fruit, "But this mansion is so big, and there are more than ten thousand people. How can we find out the enemy's accomplices?" Mu Qing leaned on Mu Huayan's shoulder weakly.

She put her hand on Mu Qing's shoulder with a serious look on her face, "Mu Qing, your sister really wants to be lazy right now, how about leaving this matter to you guys to investigate?"

Mu Qing pushed her arm away and said seriously: "Senior Sister, why don't you just use it directly...right?"

Mu Huayan rejected her outright, "No! The time has not come yet, and many people's lives are in the hands of the person behind the scenes."

She glanced at Mu Qing and the others, her eyes revealing a hint of worry, "Let's not talk about these, once the two sides really start fighting..."

She did not continue to speak but changed her words, "How can I be the kind of strong person who does not care about the lives of others!"

Mu Qing smiled and put his arms around her waist. He laid his face on her shoulder and said all kinds of coquettish words to praise Mu Huayan. The two began to bicker and play as usual.

Although Xin Ce didn't spend much time with Mu Huayan and the others, and couldn't say that he knew them very well, he seemed to understand why Feng Yichen fell in love with this girl.

At this moment, he felt deeply in his heart that Huan Wuyun was indeed inferior to Mu Huayan in every aspect. Even so, he still loved Huan Wuyun.

Tolerate everything about her, accept everything about her, maybe one day I will love her enough to give up my life for her...

On the morning of the second day, Mu Huayan and her friends discussed a plan to lure out the insider. They were just discussing in the mansion that they had developed an antidote for the yellow pill.

But within a few minutes, the person hiding in the mansion was exposed. He first tiptoed into the side hall where the antidote was being developed, and then stole a medicine bottle with a tracking spell.

Judging from the aura released by this person, he is just a low-level cultivator. Mu Huayan and the others don't understand where he got the courage to risk his life for others.

Mu Huayan and the others also took the opportunity to check if there were any monsters lurking in the mansion, but the result was none, which was beyond their expectations.

Mu Huayan and Xin Ce followed this person all the way to a dilapidated temple, where they saw him take out the antidote and hand it to a young man sitting on the ground.

"Brother, this is the antidote developed by our people in the Marquis' Mansion. Take it quickly."

The visitors had taken the antidote but there was no reaction, so Xin Ce cast a spell to make them obediently answer questions.

It turns out that this person stole the antidote just to save his demonized brother, which means he was not the so-called insider. But things soon took a turn for the worse.

When they left with a look of disappointment, they found a dark shadow retreating from the forest in front of them. Mu Huayan and the others found it too late and it escaped.

When he came back to his senses, he heard a scream. It was the guards who had just come out of the Marquis' Mansion. When they arrived at the scene, the man who had already turned into a monster was killed by the guards.

They had no choice but to return to the mansion. It seemed that the insider was very smart and knew how to use others to test the truth. Mu Huayan told Su Yu to gather all the people with skills in the mansion to the martial arts training ground.

They claimed that the enemy's traitor was among them, and the purpose of gathering them was to catch the person who fled in the face of the enemy. Of course, they didn't know who the traitor was, so it depended on the other party's psychological quality.

However, Mu Huayan had made all the preparations. She went to the martial arts training ground with Xin Ce and the others, while her clone transformed into another appearance and lurked in the mansion, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

Su Yu followed Mu Huayan's instructions and gave some words to encourage morale at the scene. In the end, he deliberately pointed out that he had indeed developed an antidote.

However, Mu Huayan had never expected that the enemy would be so cunning, and their mentality was very calm. No one showed their true colors, let alone escape from the battlefield.

In this case, Mu Huayan really went to develop an antidote, but found that the yellow pill had no antidote at all. She crushed everything including the alchemy furnace, "You are so cruel and vicious, you like to be a rat digging holes, right? Then I will force you out!"

Mu Huayan came alone to a central location in Huayu County and set up a Soul-Sorrowing Formation. This formation was extremely energy-consuming and any mistake would harm one's own consciousness.

What she wanted was the person who secretly came here to deliver the message that day to show up, and the black shadow in the ruined temple. Now the entire Huayu County is in the formation.

As soon as the cultivators step into the formation, their memories of the past few days will be retrieved. The person who set up the formation can instantly read the corresponding memories from the formation, and finally the formation will track and lock the location.

In a house called Linglong Pavilion somewhere in Huayu County, one of them sensed that someone had set up a soul-sorrowing formation in Huayu County, and the wine glass holding the tea was a little unstable.

This formation can affect people no matter where they are. Even if you are in a secret room, you cannot escape the scanning of the formation.

This man had delicate features and a handsome face, and he exuded an air of arrogance. He poured a glass of wine and drank it. "Interesting, even if you activated the Soul Sorrow Formation, so what?"

But just as he finished speaking, Mu Huayan's voice came, quite mockingly, "Yeah, so what if you activated the Soul Sorrow Array!"

The man was so frightened that he dropped the jade cup in his hand. He stood up, took out his magic weapon and scanned the surroundings, but he didn't see her figure.

Mu Huayan's clone leaned against a pillar with his hands on his hips, took the bottle of wine from the table and shook it, "Are you looking for me?"

The man came to his senses and quickly threw the short blade in his hand at her. Mu Huayan grabbed the short blade and cast a spell mark on him. The man realized something was wrong and overturned the table and fled.

One of the guards in the Marquis' Mansion who had been dismissed by Mu Huayan earlier, seeing that his memory was about to be extracted, came up with the idea of ​​erasing his own memory.

But just as he was about to circulate his spiritual power, he was interrupted by a spell. He looked back and saw that it was Mu Qing. As soon as she received the message from Mu Huayan, she rushed to the man's location.

In a mansion in the southeast of Huayu County, a female cultivator who was developing a yellow pill noticed something was wrong. Before she could react, a figure ran up to her and kissed her on the lips.

But the Soul-Sorrowing Formation was extremely demanding, and it didn't last long. After just a quarter of an hour, the formation gradually dissipated. Mu Huayan fell into deep thought, "Xiaoyao Mansion..."

A faint smile appeared on her lips: "The hunting game begins!"

Mu Huayan and others in An Hou's Mansion looked at a certain guard captain who was tied up. He looked quite handsome and his cultivation level was not bad at the Golden Immortal Realm.

But she couldn't figure out why he would work for others. Mu Qing sealed his meridians and blocked his mouth to prevent him from committing suicide. After a lot of questioning, he refused to say anything.

Mu Huayan didn't believe that she couldn't pry open his mouth, so she stretched out her hand and said, "Mu Qing, give me the yellow pill!"

Sure enough, just as I was about to put the pill into his mouth, he started shaking his head, with rejection written all over his face. After struggling for a moment, a look of surrender appeared in his eyes.

Mu Huayan untied his restraints and placed the short blade against his neck.

"Why did you work for the Blood Demon Sect and provide them with our whereabouts?"
