Master's Chief Disciple

Chapter 248 This is clearly testing drugs on living people!!

Mu Huayan felt that this matter was questionable. Even the healing elixir could not heal the wound. Then why was this person dying? Now the only possible explanation was that he was a demon cultivator.

Isn't this a good opportunity? To get in close contact with the demon cultivator, I can also ask for information. "Miss Su, if we have enough time, why don't we go with this old man to take a look."

In fact, she had promised her family that she would go back within the stipulated date, and today was the last day. She was worried that she would be beaten and insulted by her family if she didn't make it in time.

She had no choice but to agree and accompany them to a village. There was a pungent and smelly smell in the village.

Several people with strange behavior climbed onto the roof and looked at them warily. One of them, a man in green, held a broken sword in his hand. Perhaps because he saw strangers, he smiled sinisterly and threw the sword at them.

When Xin Ce knocked him down, the old man immediately stepped forward to stop the man's behavior and scolded him. Then they came to a mud house.

A dying man lay motionless on a straw couch, his brows knitted tightly together and he was sweating profusely. At this time, the little fox said that there was a demon's aura on this man.

"Are you sure? But he is obviously a human, unless he is a demon cultivator!"

Mu Huayan thought for a moment and passed the red pill to the fox's nose. After sniffing it for a while, it said, "Where did you get this pill? It smells like demon blood and the smell of your human cultivators..."

"!!!"

The little fox was a little scared when he said the last sentence. Mu Huayan gently stroked its little head and said, "It seems that the origin of this pill must be investigated!"

"Then how can the monk who took this pill save him?"

The little fox just kept chirping, and its head drooped. She knew what it meant, but there was no answer...

"Who on earth has such a vicious heart! They are clearly testing drugs on living people!!"

The murderous intent in Mu Huayan's eyes grew stronger. Mu Qing shuddered and reached out to pull at the corner of her clothes. "Senior sister, are you okay?"

She shook her head and patted her hands before starting to treat the man lying on the couch. When her spiritual power touched his body, she noticed that the vitality in this man's body was being eaten away by the demonic power bit by bit.

This man was a cultivator at the Immortal Body Realm before taking the medicine, but after taking the medicine, his cultivation level skyrocketed to the Golden Body Realm. However, when he woke up, he was a living demon cultivator, which means he was still facing death...

Mu Huayan left the room and told the old man about his physical condition in detail. After all, it was the fate and calamity of mortals, and they, as immortals, could not interfere. When the old man came to his senses, Mu Huayan and the others had disappeared.

"Senior sister, why don't you remind the old man to stay away from him?"

"This is their fate, and even if I tell him, the old man won't believe it..."

From a distance, they heard a pale scream. Who on earth regarded life as worthless and fooled these ordinary people like this?

"I will definitely find out who is behind this and give you justice!" Mu Huayan thought to herself.

In the evening, several people arrived at the so-called Tianwen Marquis's Mansion. This green brick and green tile house was worthy of being an official's home. The furnishings in the inner room were also amazing. Not only were there various famous paintings on the walls, but even the furniture was of the highest quality.

Before they even had time to sit down in the hall, a fat butler came over. However, he did not come to greet Mu Huayan and the others but to question Su Yu, "Miss, why did you come back just now? The Marquis kept asking me about your whereabouts, and he got angry and killed several servants..."

The fat butler was also a sharp-eyed man. He watched people coming and his voice became lower and lower, fearing that outsiders would hear and spread the news, causing him to lose his head. However, Mu Huayan and the others were cultivators and it was difficult for them not to listen.

The fat butler Wenfu whispered to her before coming over to greet Mu Huayan and the others. Just as a maid brought the tea and was about to pour it, a majestic voice rang out, "Su Yu, are you so bold that you even dare to disobey the orders of your father, the Marquis?"

The maid stopped pouring water immediately and lowered her head, not daring to breathe, but her hand holding the kettle kept shaking.

Su Yu was very calm, but her face looked a little impatient. She turned around and said, "Father, the child has returned to the mansion as agreed."

But the strange thing is that the so-called Marquis never showed up. The man snorted dully and stopped talking. Su Yu looked disappointed.

Mu Huayan used her spiritual sense to explore the entire mansion, and surprisingly, she didn't find anything unusual, but she always felt that something was wrong but she couldn't figure it out.

However, since there was nothing unusual during the day, something must have happened at night. As long as Su Yu kept them, she could investigate the tricks in the mansion.

The fat butler hurriedly walked out of an alley, glanced at Mu Huayan and the others, and then walked straight to Su Yu and whispered something to her. After hearing this, Su Yu directly rejected it, "No, I don't agree. Besides, it's getting dark soon, they have to stay overnight!"

He clapped his hands and grimaced, "Oh my dear lady, aren't you making things difficult for me? If the Marquis blames me, I wouldn't dare to arrange this for you even if I had ten thousand heads."

Su Yu pushed him away and said, "I will take all the responsibility alone. It has nothing to do with you, Wenfu!"

Wenfu paced back and forth, not knowing what to do. Su Yu urged him to go back to his room and not come out again, because night was about to fall.

Wen Fu, who had already left, turned back and said with a worried look on his face, "Miss, there are no more guest rooms in the mansion for them to stay in."

Suddenly she thought of her own Canlan Courtyard, so she called the maid to arrange for Mu Huayan and the others to move in. Mu Huayan and the other two were also very surprised why she looked so flustered and even acted so hurriedly, as if she was afraid of something.

Sure enough, after Su Yu brought them into the room, she told them, just like last time, that they must not step out of the yard at any cost. Seeing that the little bit of rosy clouds was gradually swallowed up by the clouds, she became even more anxious.

"Sister Mu, you must remember that no matter what happens, you must not leave this yard. No matter who or what you see, do not panic."

Mu Huayan half-sat by the window while chewing on a fairy fruit and answered her perfunctorily. Mu Qing would occasionally reach out to take fairy fruit from her storage bag. She, Su Yu, was so nervous and uneasy, so why could they still be so calm?

Mu Huayan was able to figure out a little bit of the situation. There would be demon cultivators appearing at night, and those demon cultivators could not stand the light of day. Or they might lose control at night and hurt people at will.

"What? Is this Marquis' Mansion not safe?" Mu Huayan asked casually.

She nodded heavily but her eyes were fixed on the roof opposite. She didn't know whether she was speaking incoherently because she was nervous and afraid, or because there was something wrong with her expression. "Because we can't set up a formation to cover the entire mansion. Although I am a cultivator, it is difficult for me to protect everyone with my own strength."

"Protect everyone?" Mu Huayan didn't understand why.

But Su Yu seemed to be thinking about something with her head down, so she had to touch her shoulder. She was frightened and stepped back, her face showing fear and her chest heaving violently.

"what happened to you?"

After seeing that it was Mu Huayan, she took a deep breath and exhaled, then tried to calm herself down. But one could tell that she was trying to steady her trembling voice, "No, nothing. I just remembered something bad."

Su Yu's nervous expression further confirmed Mu Huayan's guess. There must be many secrets in this mansion. "What do you mean when you said you can't protect everyone? Are you the only cultivator in this mansion?"

Suddenly, there was a slight rustling sound, and there was also strange laughter. If you didn't know, you would think you had entered a haunted house. Su Yu held a sword tightly in both hands, "It, they are coming..."

Mu Huayan was a little speechless. He was just a demon cultivator. What was there to be afraid of? He was probably young and had little experience. He probably rarely went into battle to kill enemies. Mu Huayan noticed that there was no so-called formation set up in this place.

"Miss Su, did you miss something?"

But she was so frightened that she didn't hear what Mu Huayan said until she heard a scream. It was her maid who was attacked. Didn't she warn her to come to this courtyard after nightfall?

Two mutated human monks rushed towards them waving swords. Su Yu was awakened again. They had clearly set up a formation, but why were they able to walk in peacefully?

"The formation has been broken!"

Su Yu realized it later and dropped her sword to look for the center of the formation. Suddenly, an attack was about to fall on her back. Mu Huayan pushed her away and killed the demon cultivator with a sword. In the distance, the maid's cry for help was heard.

Mu Huayan found out that the entire mansion was actually filled with mutated demon cultivators. There were a large number of them and their cultivation was at least at the Golden Immortal Realm. She suddenly understood what Su Yu had said just now.

But they had to save the maid first, after all, she was a life. Su Yu held her back and said that if she was gone, she was gone, and she could find another maid because many of the maids around her had died.

They were attacked by the demon cultivators because they were disobedient. It was no wonder that Su Yu was cold and ruthless. After all, she alone could not save so many people.

"It doesn't matter."

She saw the words "reliable" and "reassuring" in Mu Huayan's eyes, and suddenly felt the restlessness and uneasiness in her heart disappear. Before she left, she set up a formation to cover them all.
