Chapter 208: Meeting Mu Hongxiu

Mo Family Mansion.

Mo Xiu introduced Xing Yuyan to Mo Ruyi, and then rearranged the destroyed protective array, and upgraded the Blood Demon Killing Array by the way.

When it was almost done, he returned to Mo Ruyi and Xing Yuyan.

In just a few moments, the two had become acquainted with each other.

"Sister Ruyi, I now know what senior brother's plans are. When I and him take down the Seraphic Sword Sect, you must come and play," Xing Yuyan said flatly.

"Good," Mo Ruyi nodded and agreed.

Then, she asked curiously, "How did you meet Mo Xiu? Is he close to any woman in the Seraphic Sword Sect?"

Xing Yuyan gave a general description of how she met Mo Xiu, and then said, "Yuan Rou is the one who is relatively close to him, but Yuan Rou seems to be a Sword Spirit. I only know that they have some secrets in common. I don't know the others very well."

"I heard that there is a person in the Seraphic Sword Sect named Song Shenxue, who is extremely talented in cultivation, and she also has a peerless appearance. How is she related to Mo Xiu?" Mo Ruyi asked again.

"Song Shenxue? Her relationship with him is not counted as good. Before, senior brother said that he would accept her as a disciple, but she refused. Maybe she hates him now."

After Xing Yuyan thought for a while, she seemed to understand Mo Ruyi's thoughts a little, so she gave Mo Ruyi a reassuring look, "Sister Ruyi, don't worry, those coquettish bitches dare not deliberately approach the senior brother. Even if they really dare to approach senior brother, I will definitely drive them away and won't let them affect senior brother's ambition and dominance."

"Really? Then I feel at ease."

Mo Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief, but what she thought in his heart was: "It seems that the only coquettish woman here is Xing Yuyan, it's good as long as she is guarded."

Mo Xiu never said that he had any ambitions for hegemony. He just wanted to control some of the forces in the Profound Sky Continent, to return to the Realm of Heaven, and to avenge his grievances.

He had never told anyone other than Yuan Rou about the Realm of Heaven. It was probably because of this that Xing Yuyan would misunderstand him.

He could guess some of Mo Ruyi's mind, but he didn't intend to reveal it or explain it.

When the topic of the two women came to an end, he called Mo Ruyi to come over and let Mo Ruyi go for a walk with him.

Mo Ruyi was naturally overjoyed.

Xing Yuyan didn't think too much, she only regarded Mo Ruyi and Mo Xiu as siblings, and never thought that there was no blood relationship between the two.

Leaving the mansion and walking on the streets of Sun Martial City, the familiar and unfamiliar scene reminded Mo Xiu of the days when his soul had just awakened.

A figure came from a distance, and when she saw Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi, she was stunned for a moment.

"Patriarch, Young Master Mo Xiu," the woman hurriedly saluted respectfully.

Mo Xiu recognized this person, Ning Fu, the second lady of the Ning Family.

In the beginning, Mo Xiu used the Pill Revolving Art to refine the Storm Pills in the Revolving Pill Pavilion, and Ning Fu happened to be there.

Ning Rujian, the head of the Ning Family, urgently dispatched people to deal with Mo Xiu because of Ning Fu's rhetoric.

Before the collapse of the five great families, Ning Rujian took the initiative to ask for death, hoping that Mo Xiu would give a way out for the Ning Family to preserve the blood of the Ning family. Mo Xiu agreed.

After that, Mo Xiu didn't pay attention to the Ning Family anymore. He never thought that he would run into Ning Fu on the streets of Sun Martial City at this time, and even more so that Ning Fu would call him and Mo Ruyi like this.

"The Ning Family no longer exists. The former enemies of the Ning Family went to deal with them. I went forward to save Ning Fu's life. Now, the Ning Family is working for our Mo Family," Mo Ruyi explained.

Mo Xiu nodded lightly, not caring very much.

Ning Fu lowered her head, looking very humble, not at all the aura of the second lady of the Ning Family that day.

She didn't leave silently until Mo Ruyi's eyes signaled.

After walking for a while, the two came outside the Revolving Pill Pavilion that day, but the Revolving Pill Pavilion that day had now become a tailor's shop.

Inside the shop, a middle-aged man found Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi and hurried out.

"Patriarch."

After he greeted Mo Ruyi, he looked at Mo Xiu again and said excitedly, "Young Master Mo Xiu, you are finally back."

"Shortly after Liu Xuan's death, Revolving Pill Pavilion closed down. After I thought about it, I simply bought this place, but our Mo Family has no talents in alchemy, so we had to change Revolving Pill Pavilion into a tailor shop," Mo Ruyi explained.

Mo Xiu was a little surprised but didn't make any comments. He just said to the middle-aged man, "I'm just walking around, you can go busy with your jobs."

"Good," the man smiled and turned back.

It could be seen that Mo Ruyi did spend a lot of time on the management of the Mo Family and Sun Martial City. No wonder that when the elders of the Alchemy League and Thousand Poison Sect came to the door, she would rather die than run away.

On the one hand, it was indeed because of Mo Xiu's entrustment, on the other hand, it was estimated that she had feelings for the Mo Family and this city.

He breathed out a foul breath and said to Mo Ruyi, "Anyway, your life is the most important thing. If someone comes to the door in the future, if you know that you can't with them, remember to evacuate as soon as possible."

Mo Ruyi was stunned for a moment, and said with a sweet smile, "I'm very happy."

"Huh?" Mo Xiu was a little confused by Mo Ruyi's thoughtless words.

Mo Ruyi didn't explain, and speeded up her pace to walk in front of Mo Xiu, turned her back to Mo Xiu, and said, "I will."

...

Yan Capital.

The former Alchemy League station had been taken away by Empress Yan Ran.

However, in order to maintain the relevant order, the assessments for pharmacists, physicians, and alchemists were not abolished, and they were even held in the same place. It was just that the people in charge of the assessment became physicians and alchemists selected by Yan Ran from all over the country.

The pharmacists were mainly evaluated by people from the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce. After all, the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce was mostly composed of pharmacists. And Su Qianqian, the Patriarch of the Su Family who was in charge of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce, had a special relationship with Yan Ran. Naturally, she could participate in the share of the pie.

Mu Hongxiu, who originally belonged to a disciple of the Alchemy League, was now also working for Yan Ran, and was regarded as the chief person in charge of the assessment of alchemist and pharmacist.

The pharmacist assessment was in full swing, but Mu Hongxiu, who was in charge of the assessment, suddenly received a message.

After checking the content of the message, her face changed.

"Sister Hongxiu, what's the matter?" A pharmacist of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce nearby asked in a low voice.

Mu Hongxiu didn't explain, but said, "I need to leave in an urgent matter. I'll leave the work to you for the time being."

After that, Mu Hongxiu left the former Alchemy League's station, left Yan Capital, and found one person in the wilderness.

"Master," Mu Hongxiu called out anxiously.

The man turned around and looked at Mu Hongxiu. It was Mu Hongxiu's master, Luo Hongchen who had just escaped from Sun Martial City Mo Family's mansion before.

"Your senior brothers and sisters are dead; how did you survive?" Luo Hongchen asked sternly.

A tinge of pain flashed across Mu Hongxiu's face, and she said in a sad tone, "At that time, all of us in the Alchemy League were killed by Mo Xiu. The brothers and sisters died tragically in his hands. This disciple originally thought that she could never escape. Unexpectedly, he didn't kill me in the end, but just cast a vicious curse on me, let me practice hard, and become his furnace in the future..."

Speaking of this, she almost burst into tears, "These days, this disciple life's worse than death, and often wants to commit suicide. But after suffering from the curse, I can't commit suicide at all even if I want to. Now that Master arrives, this disciple would have no face to meet Master, but..."

After speaking, she took a deep breath, "This disciple no longer expects Master's forgiveness, but only asks Master to grant her a death, so that she can be freed as soon as possible."

"This is what you said!"

Luo Hongchen snorted coldly, raised a palm, and patted Mu Hongxiu's forehead.

Mu Hongxiu didn't evade, just closed her eyes, and her face was calm and relieved at last.

However, this palm did not pat on Mu Hongxiu's head but stop about three inches from Mu Hongxiu's head.

"Master?"

Mu Hongxiu opened her eyes and looked a little puzzled.

Luo Hongchen retracted his hand, stood with his hand behind his back, and sighed, "You have suffered these days. Your teacher does not blame you, but..."

He was just worried that Mu Hongxiu had betrayed the Alchemy League.

Now, it seemed that the possibility of Mu Hongxiu's betrayal was almost zero. After all, a person who was not afraid of death would not be afraid of Mo Xiu's threat, and a person who wanted to die generally would not be lying.

He did not express his inner thoughts, but he instead said, "Don't worry, I have applied to the sect to send a strong person to come and kill Mo Xiu. As long as Mo Xiu is dead, that curse should be lifted, and you will not become his furnace in the future..."

Speaking of this, he suddenly realized, "I was wondering how Mo Xiu's strength could grow so fast. I didn't expect him to use a large number of human furnaces to cultivate. Such an evil person is intolerable by the laws of nature. If he is not killed, sooner or later, there will be natural disasters on the Profound Sky Continent."

Mu Hongxiu fell silent, seemingly at a loss for the change in Luo Hongchen's attitude.

Luo Hongchen stared at Mu Hongxiu for a while, and then said, "Don't worry, you are the most trusted and most optimistic apprentice for your teacher. Your teacher will definitely let you get out of the sea of ​​hardship without any problems. This time, I am looking for you mainly because I want you to inquire about some situations."

"Inquire about the situation?" Mu Hongxiu was very puzzled.

Luo Hongchen: "I have fought against Mo Xiu. Although I have applied to mobilize our sect's powerhouse to come and kill him, he is expected to have something to expect, so I need to kill a few people before he can react..."

To put it bluntly, he was worried that Mo Xiu would flee, so he needed to kill those related to Mo Xiu before Mo Xiu fled, and give him a tooth for a tooth. In this way, even if he really let Mo Xiu escape, that could still be regarded as an act of successful revenge.

Of course, he just said that he would kill Mo Xiu and help Mu Hongxiu escape from the sea of ​​suffering, so no matter what happened, Mo Xiu was likely to escape.

He just explained vaguely, and immediately said, "The Yan Kingdom has a big array. Although I can easily break through that big array, it will easily shock the snakes and let the people of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce and the royal family of Yan Kingdom escape. Therefore, I need you to bring me into Yan Capital quietly, or you can bring the people I want to kill out."
