Mu Xiao listened silently to the man's footsteps as a rough idea formed in his mind. This man landed steadily and was strong. Every step he took was similar in size, so he should have practiced martial arts.

Soon, she heard the sound of dripping water coming from outside. She knew that they had entered the fake mountain. It had rained last night, so the fake mountain wasn't a tight cave. Naturally, there would be raindrops.

Not long after, the sound of a stone door opening was heard, followed by an animal like roar.

Uncle Yu then asked, "What happened today?"

Another voice replied, "Eldest Young Master researched and created a new type of powder to counter the demonic energy. He gave it to these things and it became like this after."

"Nonsense!" Uncle Yu yelled and angrily walked back inside. The servants carrying the chests also quickened their pace, and after a while they stopped again and put all the chests on the ground.

Mu Xiaoling, who was in the box, heard Fu Wanwu's excited voice, "Uncle Yu, you've brought someone back for me. Are you the son of a noble family that you spoke of last time?"

Uncle Yu growled in anger, "That's right, but Eldest Young Master, if you are going to mess around like this, you might get into big trouble soon!"

Fu Wan disapproved, "What's there to be afraid of? My father is the current mayor, and I am the future mayor. Who would dare to do anything to our Fu Family?"

"Eldest Young Master!" Uncle Yu shouted.

"Alright, alright. Let me take a look at the experimental subjects you brought back this time." Fu Wan opened the chests one by one and said happily, "There are actually three of them! Not bad, not bad at all."

When the servant let the three out of the bag and laid on the bed, Fu Wanwu's eyes lit up, "Feng Jiuyang, it's actually Feng Jiuyang. Good, haha, this is truly great!"

Uncle Yu said: "I'm afraid that they'll make a move. If we use too much sedative, we won't be able to wake up for a while."

"I'll consider it your contribution. Next time, I'll give you a position in front of your father." Fu Wanwu didn't take his eyes off these three people as he casually said these words. He then picked up his tools and prepared to inject his demon energy into Feng Jiuyang's dantian.

However, just as he turned around, a thin zither string suddenly appeared and tied him up.

Fu Wan who originally had about seventy to eighty percent of his true essence scattered and was almost hit by the attack before he could even react. He raised his head in shock and coincidentally saw the three people who should have fainted on the bed all sat up. How could this be?! "

Feng Jiuyang slightly sighed: "Sorry for offending the young master."

Mu Xiaoling stood up and looked at them indifferently. "Just surrender."

"So you're pretending to be unconscious to deceive me." Fu Wan muttered to himself before his expression changed. He glared at the three people and said, "Do you really think that such a small trick would be able to do anything to me? Do you really think that all the research I've done these days has been for nothing?"

As he spoke, his entire body exuded a rich demonic energy. It actually corroded Feng Jiuyang's zither strings, turning them into puddles of water that dripped to the ground.

Fu Wan stood up again, shaking off the dirt on his body, "Waking up is also good. Only like this will it be fun."

With that, he took out a stone and crushed it. Countless poisonous bugs crawled out from the walls towards the three of them.

Gu Xiu stood in front of Mu Xiaoling. "Be careful Master, there are too many of them!"

"Allow me." Feng Jiuyang took off his jade zither and fiddled with it. The sound of the zither spread out, and it was as if countless knives were falling from the sky, shattering all the insects.

Mu Xiaoling and Gu Xiu were quick enough to clear the fish that had escaped the net.

However, this massive sound wave attack seemed to be a bit too much for Feng Jiuyang, but soon after, his breath began to become unstable. More and more poisonous insects began to penetrate through the sound barrier, and Mu Xiaoling and Gu Xiuhu immediately sped up their efforts to clean it out.

After cleaning up the last poisonous insect, Feng Jiuyang spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground, no longer having the strength to play the zither.

At this time, Fu Wanwu made his move. He brought a wave of demonic aura with him as he struck towards Feng Jiuyang.

With a flash, Mu Xiaoling appeared in front of Feng Jiuyang, blocking his attack. With a kick, she sent Fu Wanwu flying away. "You should rest well first. Leave the rest to us."

Feng Jiuyang really didn't have the strength to speak, and he only blinked his eyes to show that he knew. Then, he slowly absorbed the surrounding spirit energy to turn it into true essence.

Mu Xiaoling walked over to Fu Wanwu step by step. With a cold expression on his face, he said, "What other tricks do you have? Why don't you use it?"

Fu Wan looked at her in fear and retreated, "Don't come over here. I am the future mayor of this Immortal Yang City. You are acting like you are going to make an enemy out of my Fu family and the entire Immortal Yang City. You …" You're not afraid! "

Mu Xiaoling replied, "Why don't you understand? How could I, Mu Xiaoling, be afraid of you? If I had to blame you, I could only blame you for finding the wrong person. Even your family wanted to stop you."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Fu Wan pressed himself against the wall, "What I do has always been supported by my father. How could I be stopped? You, on the other hand, if you keep making things difficult for me like this, my father and Uncle Yu will definitely not forgive you!"

"What did you say!" Mu Xiaoling frowned as she placed the dagger on Fu Wanwu's neck. "You said that the things you've done have the support of your father?"

Fu Wan was afraid that the dagger would stab into his neck, his entire body shivering. He cherished his life, otherwise, he wouldn't have gone all out just because of the illness: "Of course, my father personally gave me the remnant scroll in my hands, and even asked Uncle Yu to help me. Otherwise, how could you think that I would achieve such a feat in just a short month!"

"This is bad!" Mu Xiaoling felt a chill in her heart. Just as she was about to turn around, she suddenly felt a blow on the back of her head and her entire body fell to the ground. In that moment of haziness, she could see that Uncle Yu did not seem to have pounced on her a few days ago.

"Be careful. If you kill him, it will be useless. With such a good talent, we cannot waste it." Someone said this as he walked out from behind Uncle Yu. It was none other than Immortal Yang City's City Lord, Fu Guansan.

However, at this moment, Feng Zhiling Mountain was no longer the kind and muddle-headed old man that Mu Xiaoling had first met. Even though he was smiling, there was a trace of wickedness hidden within that smile, making people feel apprehensive.

Uncle Yu smiled and replied: "Rest assured old master, this servant knows what I'm doing. I won't die."

Mu Xiaoling wasn't clear about what had happened after that. Fortunately, the darkness hadn't lasted for long. In less than an hour, she was able to wake up.

She was still in the stone room, still lying on the stone bed, her hands and feet chained.

She tried to use her true essence to shatter the chain, but there seemed to be some sort of special power within the chain. Once she condensed her true essence, it would scatter her true essence.

"This is the Divine Seal Chains. Rumor has it that even the ancient Martial Gods were unable to break free." Uncle Yu had long since noticed Mu Xiaoling's movements and said with a smile.

Mu Xiaoling didn't bother with him and turned her head to the side. There were two stone beds on her right side. Gu Xiuhu and Feng Jiuyang were also tied to them like her.
