"But the Tiance Mansion is the most powerful in the country. I know it very well. You can escape for a while, but you can't escape forever."

Ren Suo went back home to continue playing the game, feeling as if his 12 points of merit (-1 for plucking a feather from a passing goose) had been wasted - how come even Master Mu himself didn't have a way to escape?

In fact, even Ren Suo couldn't think of a way to escape.

The Tiance Mansion is surrounded on all sides, and there is a high-end combat force like the sloppy Taoist to hold him back. It can be said that as long as Master Mu leaves this room, he will almost inevitably be involved in a life-and-death battle, and in the end he will either become evil or be defeated.

Master Mu: "Now I have been framed by a villain. If I don't clear my name, I will be in constant fear and abandoned by all living beings. I will be homeless and homeless. In the end, I will have to rely on resentment and blood as my food, using the blood of all living beings to relieve my endless loneliness... Why not kill them now and stain the sky with my devil's blood!"

System prompt: "Mr. Mu's camp tends to lean towards Xiée's camp!"

Seeing that Master Mu was about to go extreme and evil again, the maid Xiaosuo clasped her hands together, her eyes emitting endless starlight. She looked at Master Mu like starry eyes and said with admiration, "Master! I believe that you will have a way to turn the tide! Let's let them go temporarily, and when your magical power is perfect, we will find out the murderer behind the scenes, fry the skin, debone the person, steam and stew him, wrap him in breadcrumbs and throw him into the frying pan, so that we can vent your hatred!

The devil is seeking revenge from morning till night!"

The maid Xiaosuo's remarks seemed to be in line with Master Mu's thoughts. He nodded slowly: "Xiaosuo, you silly girl, do have some truth in what you say."

At this time, Ren Suo saw a skill light up in the skill bar:

"Devil's Eyes: By tracing the clues and grasping more clues, the Demon Lord can discover more details of the incident, and can even directly perceive the source of cause and effect through the thread of fate, and see the truth of everything."

This is indeed the most all-round protagonist Ren Suo has ever seen. He can do everything from combat, healing, and investigation. Even tracking down the murderer is no problem for him. He can be called a true protagonist template.

Ren Suo estimated that apart from the elementary school student who went to Hawaii in a detective comic, there would be no one more versatile than this protagonist.

System prompt: "After Xiaosuo's persuasion, Master Mu is in a good mood and the deviation has been corrected."

However, Master Mu sighed again: "This master is indeed able to see through the heavens and the earth, understand worldly affairs, and know the world from a single leaf. But even if I kill the mastermind to vent my hatred, I have already shouldered thousands of resentments, and have been accused by the six major sects. I cannot return to a peaceful life, and can only roam the world in the name of the Demon Lord... Then let the people of Tiance Mansion know that the Demon Lord cannot be insulted lightly!"

However, Mr. Mu still had some concerns.

Even if he killed the mastermind behind the incident, he will always be labeled as the descendant of the Demon Lord and will eventually be discriminated against and feared.

In this way, he still has to use the name of Demon Lord to fight against the world. What's the difference from now?

therefore--

System prompt: "Mr. Mu's camp tends to lean towards Xiée's camp!"

At this time, the maid Xiaosuo shook her head heavily, held Master Mu's hand tightly and said, "Master, since you don't want to follow the path of the Demon Lord, bring terror to the world, and hold the powerless scepter, why don't you wash away all the makeup, show your pure body to the world, confront the six major factions head-on, and make the rumors self-defeating? You can also hide in the court, and from now on, hide in the right path as the Demon Lord, roam the world freely, and play with the world. It's perfect for you!"

Master Mu blinked his eyes and nodded slightly: "Debunking rumors, proving one's innocence, slapping the faces of the six major sects, and hiding in the righteous path again... It is indeed very interesting to do this. Xiaosuo, you are not stupid today."

In the skill column, another skill lights up:

"The Demon is One Foot Higher: The Demon Lord can purify and absorb the resentment he carries, turning it into his own cultivation, but will not be blinded by the resentment. When the resentment is completely purified, the Demon Lord can disguise himself as an ordinary person to deceive the world, hiding behind the scenes and living a carefree life. Current resentment power: 346241"

At the same time, the system prompted: "After Xiaosuo's persuasion, Mr. Mu felt very comfortable and the deviation was corrected."

In the right corner of the game screen, two task prompts popped up at the same time:

"The Demon Lord cannot be insulted: While on the run, find clues about the mastermind, find out who is behind it, and kill him!"

"Devil's Life: While on the run, try to absorb the power of resentment as safely as possible, and finally confront the six major factions with an unsullied body to clear your name!"

In addition to the health bar and the energy bar, there is also a new "grudge" bar in the left corner. When Ren Suo moves the mouse, a game prompt appears:

"Resentment: The Demon Lord carries a lot of filthy resentment. Once the situation deteriorates, he will be easily eroded by the resentment and his camp will tilt to the west.

The more resentment there is, the more powerful any martial arts the Demon Lord uses will be.

Consuming resentment can be used to restore physical strength, speed up the learning of other martial arts, or greatly enhance the power of martial arts.

Current Filthy Grudge: 346241.

Purified resentment: 5322.

After playing for so long, Ren Suo finally understood how to play this game: when Master Mu was escaping, he had to track down clues to the mastermind while purifying the filth and hatred in his body.

The ultimate goal is of course to kill the mastermind behind the scenes, and then confront the six major factions openly, slap the six major factions in the face and clear his name.

The relationship between "filthy resentment" and "purifying resentment" should be similar to the relationship between fertilizer and rice. Fertilizer is naturally inedible, but after being used to grow crops and turning into rice through multiple processes, it can become nutrients that can be absorbed by humans.

Just now, Master Mu directly consumed Filthy Resentment to recover health and mana during the battle. In theory, this is no different from eating shit while fighting. No wonder the camps all tilted towards the xiéè - if anyone had to eat shit to recover health and mana during a fight, their mentality would be terrible.

Therefore, "The Upside-Down World" is a very classic martial arts game plot: an awesome protagonist, powerful enemies, a detective-like plot, and a pretentious reversal at the end...

This time, Master Mu was finally convinced: "That's right... I will never let that mastermind go. I will use the hatred he made me bear to become stronger, and then find him and crush him completely. Then I will prove my innocence in front of the six major sects and let the whole world know that these fools in the six major sects have been deceived!"

Master Mu looked at Ling'er and said, "Ling'er, I have nowhere to go now, can you help me?"

The maid Xiaosuo also said: "Sister Ling'er, you are the reincarnation of 'The God of Speed'. Can you help the young master escape thousands of miles away from the siege of Tiance Mansion and the Holy Hall?"

Why!?

It turns out that this Sister Ling and Sister Xiaojie is not only responsible for welfare, but also has an important function as an NPC?

Ling'er nodded slowly: "Yes, Ling'er has made some progress in martial arts recently. This is the 'divine travel talisman' made by Ling'er. As long as Ling'er uses her magical powers, the end of the world will be just a stone's throw away for you. You can cross a thousand miles in one step. So, where are you going, young master?"

Master Mu took the 'God Travel Talisman' and said, "This time, I will go to the place where the natural disaster occurred to track down the whereabouts of the mastermind behind it. At the same time, I have to hide my identity and act in secret to increase the difficulty for the six major sects to find me... After thinking about it, Yingzhou may be a good choice."

Ling'er: "I've been to Yingzhou twice before, so this shouldn't be difficult."

The maid Xiaosuo looked at the window and said urgently, "The people from Tiance Mansion are here, Master, hurry up and leave!"

"good."

"I want to go with you, too!"

Ling'er seemed very surprised: "Xiaosuo, why do you want to go with Master Mu? Tiance Mansion acts fairly and will never implicate you. Besides, Xiaosuo, you are weak. Following Master Mu will distract him from taking care of you."

The maid Xiaosuo shook her head heavily: "No, the young master's trip is extremely dangerous. Xiaosuo must stay by his side to take care of him! Miss Ling'er, the young master needs me!"

Two options popped up on the game screen, namely 'Let Xiaosuo follow' and 'Don't let Xiaosuo follow'.

The option of 'Don't let Xiaosuo follow' is not a big deal, but when Ren Suo hovered the mouse over the dialogue bubble of 'Let Xiaosuo follow', a line of prompts popped up next to it:

"If the maid Xiaosuo follows Master Mu, the following game content may be triggered:

Xiaosuo's persuasion (to prevent Mr. Mu's camp from leaning towards Xiéè);

The help of Xiaosuo (although Xiaosuo is weak, stupid and cute, she is proficient in healing techniques, defensive martial arts and some strange abilities, and can act on behalf of Mr. Mu);

Xiaosuo's secret information (Xiaosuo can provide help when making important game decisions);

If the maid Xiaosuo follows Mr. Mu, the following game content will be triggered forcibly:

Xiaosuo's assistance in the battle (You can equip Xiaosuo with abilities and items in the 'equipment interface', so that Xiaosuo can become a usable combat force and fight with Master Mu)."

The game's tendency is very obvious: there are a lot of benefits to letting Xiaosuo follow, but there are no benefits at all if Xiaosuo is not allowed to follow.

The only problem is that if Xiaosuo follows, the game character 'Mr. Mu' in the "Equipment Interface" will be replaced by 'Xiaosuo', and Ren Suo can only equip the maid with ability props.

However, there was no problem - Ren Suo estimated that Master Mu's skills almost covered all the prop abilities he possessed.

If I have to say, maybe Master Mu is only inferior to him in terms of healing. In addition, Ren Suo also has some strange bonding abilities.

But equipping Master Mu with these abilities is just icing on the cake, like chicken ribs; on the contrary, equipping the maid Xiaosuo with ability props is equivalent to adding an extra combat force, which is like providing charcoal in the snow.

Not to mention that Xiaosuo also knows some defensive martial arts and healing skills. If she is equipped with a few skills, it would be great to let her be cannon fodder when Mr. Mu is in danger.

On ordinary days, it is not bad to let the maid Xiaosuo warm the bed for the protagonist, and there may even be some plots and scenes that are not suitable for minors.

However, Ren Suo glanced at Xiaosuo and noticed that she had a flat chest. He felt that she probably didn't have any benefits to give...

Hey, why not a busty maid? Mr. Mu, what is your vision?

So Ren Suo clicked 'Let Xiaosuo follow'.

However, Master Mu was thinking, "Do I really want Xiaosuo to come with me? I might never come back. If Xiaosuo follows me, she will be implicated. She has nothing to do with this matter... Perhaps, letting her stay here is the best thing for her."

Ren Suo clicks 'Let Xiaosuo follow' again.

Ling'er said to Master Mu at this time: "Xiaosuo has never left the house. She is a shy girl and has never experienced the hardships of the martial arts world. Can you protect her?"

Ren Suo clicked 'Let Xiaosuo follow' for the third time.

Master Mu said to the maid Xiaosuo, "Xiaosuo, do you really want to follow me? I am a fugitive wanted by the six major sects, accused of countless crimes, and hated by the world. Do you still want to follow me and escape?"

The maid Xiaosuo asked, "So, did you do those things, sir?"

Three options pop up on the screen: 'Yes, I did it', 'Guess?', 'I didn't'.

The first option is arrogant, the second option is asking for a beating, so Ren Suo of course chose the third option.

Mr. Mu: "I didn't do it. I am innocent."

Maid Xiaosuo: "Since you said it wasn't you, Xiaosuo will cover her ears and close her eyes. She won't look at the accusations of the six major sects, and won't listen to the hatred of the world. She will help you find the mastermind and clear your name!"

System prompt: "Having gained Xiaosuo's trust, Master Mu is in a very good mood, and the deviation has been greatly corrected! Because Master Mu is in a very good mood, the speed of purifying the power of resentment has increased!"

Why……

Ren Suo felt as if he had been fed a mouthful of dog food...

But why does this dog food seem to have a familiar taste, as if I have eaten it somewhere before.

Ren Suo recalled that the couples around him seemed to be Yu Kuangtu and Qin Lian, as well as Zhao Huo and his harem ABc.

Have they ever distributed dog food like this?

Not being able to recall the specific brand of the dog food, Ren Suo stopped worrying about it and clicked 'Let Xiaosuo follow' for the fourth time.

Seeing the words 'Because Mr. Mu is in a very good mood, the speed of purifying the power of resentment has increased', it is even more impossible for Ren Suo to let Xiaosuo go - it turns out that you are a human buff!

This time, there were no more obstacles.

Ling'er: "In that case... Ling'er wishes you a safe journey. When the time comes, Ling'er will say she knows nothing and will never reveal the whereabouts of the young master. As for you, Xiaosuo, I said you are staying at Sister Bai's place, and I'm sure that Tiance Mansion will not care about your whereabouts."

The maid Xiaosuo and Master Mu said at the same time: "Then please help Miss Ling'er."

Ling'er: "There's no need to use the word 'trouble' between us. Xiaosuo believes in you, sir, and so does Ling'er."

"Well, I wish you a safe journey and a safe return."

Two rectangular talismans lit up around the maid Xiaosuo and Master Mu, and then they turned into light and fled into the distance.

Ling'er, who was chanting and casting spells, was so tired that she collapsed on the spot. At this time, the people from Tiance Mansion broke in through the door and window, but did not see the maid Xiaosuo and Master Mu leave.

——————————

Less than a hundred meters away from Ren Suo, at Dong Chengling's home.

Even in broad daylight, Dong Chengling pulled down all the curtains, leaving the house in darkness.

Dong Chengling, who was sitting upright on the table, was breathing steadily, without a trace of sweat on his body, and his clothes were clean and fragrant. He did not look like he was studying "Xuan Jun Secret Records" - studying this thing would be even more tiring than running 10 kilometers quickly.

Suddenly, Dong Chengling disappeared out of thin air in Pútuán.

Three seconds later, Dong Chengling appeared in the hall again, but he was already sweating profusely and lying on the ground exhausted, not wanting to move a finger.

"3,000 kilometers solo round trip... success." Dong Chengling took a deep breath, pulled himself together, sat up and began to practice "Xuan Jun Secret Records".

"Using the awakening spell to knock on the door of the fourth rank... it's feasible! And if I can be promoted to the fourth rank with this, not only will my strength increase greatly, but the awakening spell will also be further deepened!"

"By then, even without help from others, I can... be close yet far away!"
