Chapter 32 Chapter 32 Mu Yang's servant was killed by evil...
The news that Mu Yang's servant was killed by the evildoer spread quietly throughout the Mu family.
Even though the Mu family's head father and head mother forcibly suppressed the news, they still couldn't stop the servants from discussing it in panic behind their backs. The usually peaceful Mu family suddenly became depressed and panicked, and there was no more laughter or joy.
Until late at night, the Mu family lit up countless lanterns, making the Mu family home as bright as day, but it was unable to dispel the fear in their hearts.
Mu Yang, sitting at the table making origami figures, looked at Li Yian, who was polishing her sword, with a worried look on his face. "Cousin, aren't you staying with me tonight?"
Li Yian paused, looked up at Li Xuan who was leaning against the beam, and muttered, "My throne has been taken, what am I waiting for?" She turned to look at Mu Yang, "I'm going to protect the master, the mistress, and Mu Yin. The evil will continue to appear tonight, you, take care of yourself, and don't run around."
She had a very ominous premonition about tonight. Martial artists are always extremely sensitive to potential dangers. Li Xuan stayed at the Mu family to protect Mu Yang, which also showed that her ominous premonition was not unique to her.
As the heir of God, Mu Yang's life is more important than anyone else's. In the future, eliminating evil and saving the world from danger will all depend on him. Although it sounds childish, it is indeed the truth.
She had been feeling uneasy the whole night, worried about Mu Yang and the Mu family, so when facing Mu Yang at this moment, she couldn't help but express a few more concerns.
While wiping his sword, Li Yian said to Mu Yang, "The High Priest will let you and the Prince Warrior go to the palace to study for a while. You will set off tomorrow. I will not go."
Although her tone was calm, the usually gentle Mu Yang frowned tightly, his eyes revealing worry and uneasiness.
He stood up and walked quickly to Li Yian. When Li Yian saw that he was less than five meters away from her, she hurriedly stopped him, "Stand there, don't come over."
But Mu Yang, who always listened to her obediently, did not stop. He walked towards her quickly. Li Yian hurriedly took a few steps back. Her back was already against the bookshelf. She looked around for a while, trying to find a place to hide, but the throne she always hid in was occupied by Li Xuan.
She quickly stretched out her hand to block her and Mu Yang, "Stop!"
Because her tone was a bit harsh, Mu Yang finally stopped, his eyes red. He lowered his eyes and whispered in a low voice, "I'm afraid you'll be in danger tonight."
Li Yian snorted, "You should worry about yourself." She wiped the clean sword back into the scabbard, turned around and walked out the door.
She could hear Mu Yang calling her name from behind, but she pretended not to hear it.
Li Xuan stayed at the Mu family tonight to guard Mu Yang. With Li Xuan's protection, Li Yian was not worried about Mu Yang's safety.
On the way to the courtyard of the Mu family's master and mistress, there were lanterns hanging along the way. Li Yian looked around and saw the warriors of the Theological Society lying in ambush nearby. She felt a little relieved.
When she walked into the courtyard of the Mu family's master and mistress, she saw the familiar environment and thought of how good the master and mistress had been to her, and she felt a little uncomfortable.
They welcomed her in warmly as usual, but she had no appetite to eat the tea and snacks they stuffed in her mouth.
At this moment, Li Yian stood before the Master and the Master's Mother, bowing his head and saying earnestly, "Master, Madam, you and Mu Yang and Mu Yin will go out tomorrow to avoid the limelight. I will stay at the Mu family to eradicate that evil. You can come back after this is over. Is that okay? I will protect the Mu family."
Li Yian had been adopted by the Mu family for nearly ten years. Although she never changed her mind and called them father and mother, she always treated them as family. Since the evil had cultivated into a human form, it meant that it could transform into the appearance of anyone to harm them.
She is worried about every servant of the Mu family now.
If she wanted to ensure the safety of her loved ones, she had no choice but to let them leave first. Since the High Priest had arranged for Mu Yang to study at the palace, given his kind nature, he wouldn't abandon his parents and brother. And with Li Xuan's protection, their safety could be guaranteed.
And she will stay and protect the Mu family with Qi Yang and others.
The Mu family's head father shook his head and smiled bitterly, "What about the lives of the hundreds of Mu family servants? We can't leave, we can't abandon them." He looked at his wife standing beside him and sighed, "We are old and don't want to travel anymore. Yi'an, you, Mu Yang, and Mu Yin should leave together."
"Master, Madam..." Li Yian lowered her eyes sadly. She knew that the Mu family's head father and head mother had always been gentle people, and Mu Yang's gentleness was almost entirely inherited from them.
But if they don't want to leave, how can she protect them?
In the shadows of a corner, a frail young man in splendid attire was watching them intently. The Mu family's father waved at the young man, "Ah Yin, would you like to go to the palace with Sister Yi'an and Brother?"
Mu Yin lowered his head and shook it gently.
Because Mu Yin's temperament was too dark and lifeless, Li Yian looked at him a few more times and felt very uneasy. Thinking back to the time when Mu Yin grabbed her sleeve and asked her to protect him that morning, Li Yian became even more confused.
Facing the frail and pale Mu Yin, her tone softened as she asked softly, "Mu Yin, have you seen anything strange?"
Mu Yin has always been in poor health and lacks energy. Generally speaking, the evil spirits do not target Mu Yin, but she cannot guarantee that Mu Yin will not be possessed by the evil spirits.
Mu Yin's frail body trembled slightly when he heard Li Yian's question. He raised his eyes and asked again, "Sister, can you protect me?"
Li Yian nodded and said, "I will protect you all tonight."
Mu Yin raised his pale lips slightly, reached out and held Li Yian's rough hand, and whispered, "Let's go find Brother Yang."
Mu Yin's hand was as cold as ice. Li Yian paused, but ultimately did not pull her hand away. She turned around and said to the Mu family's head father and head mother, "Let's go find Mu Yang. It will be safer if we stay together."
After the Mu family servants were killed that morning, Li Yian anticipated that the evil spirit would become even more powerful. During the day, he had already contacted Qi Yang and the others to quickly complete the demon-capturing formation to prevent the evil spirit from escaping the Mu family.
Mu Yang's paper puppets are almost finished and are now scattered around the corners of the demon-catching formation.
Mu Yang, now guarded by Li Xuan, might have reached a secret location. Even Li Yian didn't know his exact location. Li Yian wasn't sure if the Mu family's head father and mother, as well as Mu Yin, who were with her, were actually there, or if the evil had already taken hold of them.
This is also the reason why Li Yian is sad. She is very afraid that they have met with an accident, but she also hopes that all this is just her imagination.
Now, Li Yian needed to bring them to the center of the Demon Capture Formation, where Qi Yang was waiting for them. As long as the crowd could gather, fewer people would be injured.
As long as she can get through tonight, she will persuade the Mu family's head father, head mother, and Mu Yin to follow Mu Yang and leave here tomorrow.
Outside, lanterns hung from the branches of trees. The sky was overcast, starless, and without a breath of wind. Even though the Mu family's house was lit up like daylight by the lanterns, preventing anyone from falling asleep, the entire Mu family home lacked a single lively atmosphere. Instead, it felt cold and depressing, like a mourning hall.
Li Yian was led by the Mu family's head father and head mother, with Mu Yin in the middle and her at the rear. However, Mu Yin's cold hand held hers the entire time.
The thin fog outside gradually filled the entire Mu family. Li Yian saw that the Mu family's head father and head mother were walking faster and faster, and soon they were submerged in the fog.
She was shocked and hurriedly pulled Mu Yin to hurry up, shouting, "Master, Madam, slow down!" Their figures in front of her were getting smaller and smaller, but they seemed not to hear her words and did not even turn their heads.
Li Yian thought he was fast enough, but for some reason he couldn't catch up with the two middle-aged and elderly people, the Mu family's father and mother.
As she ran with Mu Yin, she felt more and more strange, as if she had thought of something, and she suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. How could such a sickly young man like Mu Yin keep up with her speed?
She could feel the hand she was holding on Mu Yin was like ice. She heard Mu Yin's slightly hoarse voice behind her, "Sister, let's go find Brother Yang."
