After Xia Zhibai finished speaking, her legs felt weak, but she still took out her jade pendant and threw it into the air, exchanging the merits she had just gained from the salvation for spiritual power.
The barrier expanded the moment she fell.
"It's over. I worked so hard to save up my spiritual energy, but after all this trouble last night, it's all gone."
It's not worth it...
This was what Xia Zhibai was thinking before he fell down.
In the middle of the night, Mo Nanyun's private phone rang.
"Failed."
Mo Nanyun stared at the message intently, his knuckles turned white with anger and his face turned ashen.
I've been planning for so long, just waiting for this day, but in the end all the people I trained were lost!
Even the faceless one is gone.
"These trash!" Mo Nanyun was extremely angry, but it was late at night and everyone was asleep, so he could only swallow his anger and dissatisfaction.
But there is no way to do anything else now. The old man has already asked the eldest and second sons to come back, and he has to take care of the household chores tomorrow.
Don't show your true colors.
In a villa in the wealthy eastern district of the imperial capital, a Taoist monk in yellow clothes closed his eyes, opened his mouth and screamed, then spat out a mouthful of blood on the ground.
The three people who were guarding nearby stepped forward immediately, and two of them helped him up.
"Master, what's going on?"
"Old Four, dead."
"Master, this is impossible." The young and pretty woman shook her head and muttered to herself, unable to believe it.
"Third Brother, what you saw yourself means that his life and death incense is extinguished. That Xia guy should not be underestimated!"
"Master, I will go kill that woman now."
"Come back!" the Taoist in yellow robe shouted, telling her not to rush forward.
The other two also looked at him with grief and anger. If the person in front of them had not been injured, they would have killed that person.
"You three, don't go out recently. Now that the Mo family man is back, he won't be able to escape."
The Taoist in yellow robe wiped the blood from the corner of his lips, took a deep breath, and whispered to them not to seek revenge.
He swayed his body and continued, "If that Xia girl dares to ruin our plans again, I will settle the score with her."
After saying that, he raised his hands twice, signaling them to go down first.
"Master, you are injured, but was it that bitch who caused you to be injured?"
"She broke my magic circle and suffered backlash. She just needs to rest for a while. Third brother, remember, don't seek revenge on her. That person's magic power is unfathomable. Even with my divine eyes, I can't see clearly the fight between her and your fourth brother."
The old Taoist once again whispered a warning, hoping that the person in front of him would not cause trouble.
"Okay, I'll listen to you, Master."
Xu Mei was very unwilling, but her master would not allow her, so she had to stay here.
Xia Zhibai was unconscious at the moment, but Mo Nanfeng, who was haunted by the aura of death, was safe and sound all night thanks to her protection.
He was worried about Mo Shiyi and wanted to call Mo Nanyun, but when he remembered that it was night time and the people who hurt him were all dead, and there was no one to ask, he had to stop.
Xia Zhibai only felt that she was surrounded by a warm current at this moment, and her loss of consciousness made her slowly wake up.
But not in reality, but in a dream.
In her dream, she once again returned to the day of her ascension. She left a jade pendant for her master and infused it with spiritual power.
When she was struck by lightning again, she twitched in pain and slowly opened her eyes.
"You're awake. But are you hungry? Do you want something to eat?"
As soon as Xia Zhibai woke up, he heard Mo Nanfeng's voice.
"How long have I slept?" Xia Zhibai looked around. He was not in the living room, but in an unfamiliar room.
The curtains were drawn and she couldn't see anything outside.
"It's still early, just after eight o'clock." Mo Nanfeng was surprised that she woke up so early. He had been guarding her all night. If it weren't for her special physique, she would have probably fallen asleep by now.
"Steamed buns, soy milk, tea eggs, and a basket of steamed dumplings." Xia Zhibai listed a series of orders. Mo Nanfeng nodded and took note of them, then picked up his phone and made a call.
Hearing the repeated yeses from the other side, Xia Zhibai was slightly stunned: "Your friend?"
"Yeah, good friends since childhood."
Because of Xia Zhibai's intervention yesterday, the deathly aura in Mo Nanfeng was controlled.
There are fewer days than usual.
There is a faint sign of purple counterattack.
This made Xia Zhibai stare at his forehead in a daze, and for a moment he didn't notice the obscurity that flashed across Mo Nanfeng's eyes.
"Mo Nanfeng, let's cooperate."
"The person who wanted to harm you yesterday did it, and he will do it again today, or later."
Xia Zhibai suddenly spoke, which made Mo Nanfeng, who was avoiding looking, slightly stunned.
He had originally intended to do so, but he didn't expect her to bring it up first.
"Okay, what do you need me to do?" Mo Nanfeng asked in a low voice.
"The person who cast the curse on you would be someone close to you. From yesterday until now, I have only seen your grandfather and your third cousin, so these two people are suspects."
Xia Zhibai paused as he spoke, as if he had thought of something, and then continued: "Mo Shiyi is still alive, but he has left the imperial capital and returned to City A."
"How did he get back?"
"You can call and ask." Xia Zhibai had calculated Mo Shiyi's location in his mind and was busy now.
Mo Nanfeng immediately called Mo Shiyi.
The moment the phone was connected, his heart almost jumped into his throat.
But when he heard Mo Shiyi's voice from the other end, and he looked excited and worried, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why did you go back?"
"Didn't the young master ask me to go back?"
Mo Shiyi looked puzzled, but still asked nervously: "Master, has something happened?"
What's up?
Xia Zhibai immediately thought of the faceless man.
She stood up, patted Mo Nanfeng, and whispered, "The man who drove us here last night was the faceless man. His magic is ever-changing."
