Chapter 304: 304

“Mu Yi?”

Mo Ruyan looked at him as he entered and froze in place . She was worried about Mu Yi escapin, but she also knew that she wasn’t strong enough to help him, so she had committed herself to practice to get stronger .

She hoped for Mu Yi’s return every day but was disappointed again and again . She asked Qi Yu about him many times, but she was upset every time .

She never expected Mu Yi would come back by himself .

Before Mo Ruyan said anything, Big Slave rushed towards him . He could not speak, but his excited expression was enough to show his mood at the moment .

“Well, it’s good you haven’t gotten lazy!” Mu Yi patted Big Slave’s arm . It was hard to reach his shoulder with his height .

Hearing Mu Yi’s words, Big Slave grinned, but he looked at the Bamboo Tree of Life from time to time . Obviously, he wanted to see Nian Nuer .

“Nuer is closing herself off to cultivate . She can’t come out for a while . ” Mu Yi said .

He knew how Big Slave felt about her, so he had to lie otherwise he would be stubborn and become a terror .

“You’re back . ”

Mo Ruyan came forward gently . There were thousands of words she wanted to say, but she just stared at Mu Yi . It seemed like she wanted to see Mu Yi completely .

“Well, thanks for taking care of Big Slave . ” Mu Yi nodded to Mo Ruyan . He was very happy . He just looked into Mo Ruyan’s eyes . He didn’t know why he felt different, but the feeling was also fleeting .

“I don’t care about this trifle, but how about you? Are you hurt?” Mo Ruyan asked with concern .

“Although it was a bit awkward, it was nothing . ”

There was a puff behind him . Turning around, Qi Yu covered her mouth and chuckled . Her eyes lingered on Mu Yi and Mo Ruyan . When they looked at her, a faint smile was on her face .

“Interesting . It’s really interesting,” Qi Yu said vaguely .

“Sister . ” Mo Ruyan’s face turned red, and she looked at Qi Yu coyly . It was the first he’d ever seen her like this . He thought it was pretty .

Qi Yu was two months older than Mo Ruyan . They had gotten familiar with each other and gradually became friends . Qi Yu occasionally went shopping with Mo Ruyan .

Qi Yu understood Mo Ruyan’s mind, so she made fun of her .

“Well, I don’t want to talk about it,” Qi Yu said and looked at Mu Yi, as if she wanted to gain an insight into Mu Yi .

As for Mu Yi, Qi Yu had always been curious . Leng Yu gave her to Mu Yi . He’d rejected her . It was absolutely unacceptable to a woman who had always been confident . There was no hostility, but the impression would never get better .

However, Mu Yi, as the Envoy of the Vermilion Bird’s Flag, and what he did made Qi Yu curious, so she paid more attention to Mu Yi .

“Thank you very much, Miss Yu . ” Mu Yi was rather baffled at her attention, but thanked her .

“It’s okay . I’ll take care of Sister Ruyan since we have become so close . I won’t disturb you since you just came back . I will leave first . ”

Qi Yu whispered with Ruyan for a while before leaving .

Mu Yi went back to the house and saw that Big Slave was unhappy, but he couldn’t help him . Nian Nuer was sleeping, and Mu Yi couldn’t help her . He decided to go to the west suburb cemetery in the evening where there were many lonely souls, wild ghosts, and fierce ghosts . Hopefully, he got enough ghost Qi to wake Nian Nuer, so they could reunite .

Then, Mo Ruyan came into the house and asked Mu Yi what happened to him . Mu Yi didn’t tell her most of it . When she heard that Mu Yi was chased by Ning Wuque and eventually escaped . Mo Ruyan was shocked, and even more relieved that he had returned .

He had to leave again tomorrow to save the magistrate’s daughter, Mo Ruyan wanted to follow, but Mu Yi said no . He went to Yan Clan just to save his daughter . When this was finished, he would come back . There was no need to bring her and make her suffer from the rush .

If everything went to plan, he would stay in Cangzhou City for a while . He was still a bit weak . If he could open another one or two chakras before going to the south, the chance of successfully finishing the task would be greatly increased .

His status was different now . He would not hand in the Xin lamp, not only because the old Taoist Priest had given it to him, but because it worked .

Therefore, he could only take over the post of Envoy of the Vermilion Bird’s Flag . There would be troubles ahead if he wanted to become a real Envoy of the Vermilion Bird’s Flag, rather than a puppet . He would have to deal with the Envoy of the White Tiger’s Flag .

Leng Yu was at the peak of the second difficulty . The Envoy of the White Tiger’s Flag must not be much weaker than hers, so Mu Yi had to be careful .

In addition to that, he had to anticipate the trouble that would simply come to him regardless of how much he tried to avoid it .

Mo Ruyan also told Mu Yi about their fight with Qian Butong . Mu Yi was shocked into a cold sweat .

He hadn’t expected him to be dead, but it was surprising that his strength had increased greatly . According to Mo Ruyan, he seemed to be able to control a little bit of the power of heaven and earth, which was even more bizarre . Mu Yi thought about it and concluded that Qian Butong was dead and his body had been possessed, likely the entity that had been in the middle passage .

Although Qian Butong’s strength increased greatly, Mu Yi was not afraid even if Qian Butong returned for revenge .

Hell had disappeared at once, forgetting to take revenge for Ghost Nine and Ghost Four’s death . Mu Yi was relieved . He was not afraid of them, but worried about Mo Ruyan and Big Slave . It was hard enough avoiding their assasination attempts against the lower-tiered ghost operative . If he had to deal with the higher-tiered ones, he couldn’t be sure that he would win .

Ghost Four had been difficult to deal with . Even though he had grown a lot stronger, he wouldn’t underestimate them . Besides the ghost operative, there were the black and white devils and even the lord of hell .

Mu Yi was confident, but not arrogant . He didn’t think Hell would really swallow the insult and humiliation silently . Otherwise, the authority of Hell would collapse . They were likely waiting to attack .

After Mu Yi returned to Cangzhou City, he would have to keep a secret watch to prevent Hell from suddenly attacking them .

Cangzhou City had been quiet for a while, but it was just calm before the storm . Even Mo Ruyan, who didn’t care much about the world, could feel that the chaos was not far away .

Once the old Buddha in the Forbidden City did something, or some ambitious people came forward, chaos would erupt .

There was a saying that it was better to be a dog during peace than to be a homeless man during troubled times . It was the story of most people who were suffering from the chaos in the world .

Mu Yi stayed in the yard all day . From time to time, Mu Yi gave Big Slave advice . Mo Ruyan didn’t cultivate her spear . Her state was consolidated and it was hard to be promoted in a short time, so she didn’t worry and rested for the best results .

In the evening, Mu Yi made a deal then drifted out of the city like light smoke to the disordered cemetery .

At this moment, the waning moon shining, it was ghostly in the disordered cemetery . From time to time, the ghost fire rose and went out again . Later, it would burn in another place, just like a naughty child playing .

There was a cold wind blowing, making a whining sound as if there were ghosts crying . Ordinary people would be frightened of it and the flashes of ghost fire, but Mu Yi wasn’t .

He was there to kill a group of ghosts .

Mu Yi glanced at the disordered cemetery and used Yu’s Steps . When he reappeared, he was already deep in the cemetery . He stepped on a tombstone and stood high . He could feel that there were many eyes watching him in the dark, prepared to eat him .

“I know that you may have grievances and all kinds of tragedies before you died . You are ghosts . It is not easy for you . I don’t want to kill you . . As long as you are good enough to contribute half of your ghost Qi, I will leave and never disturb you again . ”

Although Mu Yi’s voice was not loud, it spread all over the messy graveyard . However, his words seemed to offend many of them .
