After returning to the Mu family, Mu Li was troubled. She couldn't understand why her master, who always cared for her, would appear in the Mu family's ancestral land.
"Host, he is a stranger to you! Why are you so worried?" the system reminded.
Mu Li woke up in shock. "Yeah, he just took the modern little Mu Li home and raised her until she was three years old. She really has nothing to do with her now!"
"You're right. If he really is a bad guy and wants to harm the Mu family, I won't show mercy." Mu Li stopped hesitating and said with determination.
"But host, you seem unable to defeat him!" The system couldn't help but remind.
"You are so unlovable!" Mu Li suddenly felt like a deflated ball, feeling extremely frustrated. She secretly vowed in her heart that she must practice hard!
Meanwhile, the unconscious old abbot was placed in a secret room. Mu Bai stood guard beside him, keeping an eye on him.
"Dad, what on earth is going on?" Mu Bai asked Grandpa Mu with a puzzled look on his face.
Old Master Mu shook his head: "When he wakes up, everything will have its own answer."
Two days later, the old monk finally woke up. He looked at his surroundings, a trace of panic flashing in his eyes.
"Master, you're awake." Mu Bai said.
The old abbot remained silent.
"Tell me, why did you attack my Mu family's ancestor?" Old Master Mu walked in and asked coldly.
The old abbot sighed and said, "I was forced to do so."
"Being forced? Who can force you?" Mu Li also rushed in and looked at him in confusion.
The old abbot looked at Mu Li, his eyes full of guilt: "Li'er, Master is sorry for you."
It turned out that the old abbot had a brother who had been lost for many years and was captured by the bad guys, who used this as a threat to attack the ancestors of the Mu family.
"Then why didn't you tell us?" Mu Li asked.
The old abbot said helplessly, "The other party is powerful, I'm afraid of getting you into trouble."
Mr. Mu pondered for a moment: "Then do you know what their purpose is?"
The old abbot shook his head: "I don't know, I only know that they asked me to destroy the feng shui of the Mu family's ancestral land."
Mu Li frowned: "It seems that things are not that simple."
Just then, there was a commotion outside.
"Oh no, Master, Miss, a group of strangers came to our house and said they were looking for the old abbot."
Mr. Mu's face darkened: "Go out and take a look."
When everyone arrived in the yard, they saw a group of people in black suits standing there.
"Hand him over!" said the leading man.
Mu Bai snorted coldly: "Who are you? Why do you ask us to hand over someone?"
The man sneered and said, "You are in big trouble. The person behind this is not someone you can contend with."
Old Master Mu shouted angrily: "I want to see how capable you are!"
The two sides are on the verge of a war.
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, the man suddenly waved his hand and the people behind him took out their weapons.
Mu Li's eyes flashed, and she formed seals with her hands. A ray of light instantly enveloped everyone in the Mu family.
"Hmph, a mere trifle!" the man said disdainfully, a ball of black mist appeared in his hand and rushed towards the light.
At this moment, Taotie rushed out from Mu Li's sea of consciousness, transformed into a huge beast, opened its bloody mouth, and pounced on the enemy.
Those men in black were frightened by Taotie's momentum and retreated one after another.
"Hurry, let's go together!" the man shouted.
The men in black rushed towards Taotie with gritted teeth, but Taotie was agile and powerful. After a few rounds, the men in black fell to the ground one after another.
Seeing this, the man's face turned gloomy. He took out a black bell from his arms and shook it gently.
A strange sound was heard, and Mu Li felt a sense of uneasiness in her heart, and her head began to hurt violently, as if her soul was about to be torn apart.
"Oh no, this is the evil soul-capturing bell! Li'er, be careful." The old temple master shouted.
Mu Li endured the discomfort, concentrated her mind, and muttered something. A rune flew towards the man's arm, causing a sharp pain in his arm. The bell instantly fell to the ground. Seeing this, Taotie sucked the bell into his mouth.
"If we are not allowed to eat people, it's not too much to eat some food, right?" Taotie thought silently in his heart.
"Ah!" the man screamed.
"Catch him now!" shouted Mr. Mu.
The Mu family's guards rushed forward and subdued the man.
"Tell me, who sent you here?" Mu Bai asked.
The man kept his lips tightly closed, looking as if he would rather die than surrender.
Mu Li snorted coldly, pointed her finger, and a ray of light penetrated into the man's brow.
The man immediately struggled in pain, and soon he foamed at the mouth and passed out.
"This..." Mu Bai looked at Mu Li in surprise.
"Don't worry, Daddy, I just read some of his memories." Mu Li said.
It turns out that the mastermind behind this is a mysterious organization that has always coveted some mysterious power of the Mu family.
"Mysterious power?" Old Master Mu frowned.
"I don't know exactly what it is, but from his memory I feel that this power is very strong." Mu Li said.
"No matter what, we must be prepared." said Mr. Mu.
At this moment, the unconscious old monk suddenly woke up. He said in pain, "Oh no! My relatives are in danger!"
Mu Li said, "Master, don't worry, we will work together to find a way to save them."
After some discussion, Mu Li decided to go with the old abbot to find the whereabouts of his relatives, while the Mu family strengthened their defenses to prevent the enemy from attacking again.
