184 Zuo Shangchen's Fury 4

Suddenly, Moyu halted her steps and tightened her hold on Bai Chuan’s hand. Her eyes were wary as she looked at the elderly man who was blocking their way.

The Elder wore white robes and he was standing with his arms clasped behind his back. His aura felt like an immortal’s and his stance was like a Taoist. However, his eyes were clouded with arrogance and cruelty.

"Who are you?" Moyu asked with her pretty brows scrunched up in worry. She cautiously pulled Bai Chuan behind her.

The Elder watched the two coldly. He asked, "Are you from the Hundred Herb Hall? Who is Gu Ruoyun to you?"

Master?

Moyu was stunned. Was this old man here for her Master? At this thought, her heart plummeted. "Why are you asking about her?"

"It would seem that I’ve made the right choice." The Elder chuckled before he continued, his voice cutting, "Since that’s the case, I’ll ask you two to be guests at the Dark Yin Palace!"

Bai Chuan bit his lips as his soft body leaned into Moyu’s back. His determined, wide eyes showed some panic. Evidently, even he felt that this old man has ulterior motives.

"Be a guest at the Dark Yin Palace?" Mo Yu laughed coldly. "What if I say no?"

No matter what, Moyu would not allow this old man to use herself as a pawn to threaten her Master!

As to why she had not denied her relationship with Gu Ruoyun, that was because the Dark Yin Palace would most definitely have done a detailed investigation since they have come directly to their doorstep. Even if she had denied it, they would never believe her.

"Hahaha, that’s not up to you to decide! Today, regardless of your wishes, you will come with me!"

The Elder laughed loudly before an endless stream of power rushed towards Moyu and pushed her down. The Martial King’s coercion pressed on her body heavily like a huge boulder and her fair face paled dramatically under the pressure.

"Little lady, a wise person always submit to their circumstances. No harm will come to you as long as you follow me!"

Moyu’s face was as white as a sheet but her eyes showed disdain, as if the person before her was only an ordinary pathetic person.

"You want to use me to threaten her? That’s a huge mistake. Xiao Chuan, run quickly and inform our Master that the Dark Yin Palace has come!"

Since they had become followers of their Master, they had secretly made a vow to repay her with everything they have learned in their lives. How could they allow others to use them as blackmail material?

Also, after her sacrifice, her Master and fellow members of the Devil Sect will surely avenge her.

When that happens, the pitiful one would be this old fellow.

When she thought of that, Moyu’s lips lifted to form a sarcastic smile and the disdain in her eyes was apparent.

"Stay right there!"

The old man’s face was cold and he transformed into a gust of wind to chase after Bai Chuan. With a wham, a punch landed on Bai Chuan’s spine and sent that small body crashing into a stall on the street.

The little lord’s face was pale and blood dripped from the edge of his lips. However, his eyes were still trained on the old man, fierce and unyielding.

"You old b*stard, are you so useless that you would assault a child?" Moyu was furious and her body shook with rage, "Is this what the Dark Yin Palace practices nowadays? You won’t even show mercy to such a young child?"

Elder Liu laughed chillingly, "You tried to deceive me, huh? This young boy seems to be someone who is close to Gu Ruoyun and she had a conflict with the Crown Prince of Azure Dragon Country because of him. That incident confirms that this little fellow means a lot to her. I can’t be sure if Gu Ruoyun will show up if I only have you but if I’ve also brought him along, I believe that she will definitely show up!"

"You-"

Moyu’s body quaked with anger. Now, she could only hope that the others who had witnessed this scene would inform Gu Ruoyun of the situation.
