Yin Yi's smug expression froze for a moment as he stared blankly at Mu Huan. He looked so easy to fool! Why did he feel even more cunning than that woman?!
"That woman must have given you something and asked you to protect me!" Mu Huan said in an almost affirmative tone. She had always known that the woman disliked her, but she never expected that she would be so considerate and actually found her a half-demon brother.
"You!" How do you know everything? Yin Yi didn't say it out loud. After all, he also wanted to save face! He couldn't let others know that he gave in just because someone gave him something.
"I guessed it right!" Mu Huan's face was full of pride, "Then you should just follow me from now on. Don't worry, I will take you to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks." She stood on tiptoe again and touched Yin Yi's furry head.
Yin Yi didn't want to argue with her. Others had told him that women and villains were the hardest to raise in this world! So he didn't bother with this delicate little girl. Suddenly, Yin Yi felt that his image had become great.
"Oh, right!" Mu Huan slapped his head fiercely. "I came out for business!" He looked up at the sky. It was almost daybreak. "Ah! It's dawn so soon." He sighed and turned to walk towards the inn. As he left, he didn't forget to drag Yin Yi with him, which made Yin Yi very dissatisfied.
Mu Huan didn't walk far and soon returned to the inn. He looked everywhere but couldn't find Mu Qing and the others. "Strange, didn't they say they would be back at dawn?"
Mu Huan came to the manager and asked, "Boss, are those people who were with me before back?"
"Are you referring to that generous young man from before?" Mu Huan was embarrassed. As expected, he only remembered the money! "That's right! It's them!"
The manager thought for a moment and said, "No, I didn't see it this morning."
"Okay, thank you!" He casually took out a few crystals and gave them to the manager, and the shopkeeper's face instantly turned into a smile.
Mu Huan's expression gradually became serious. Could something really have happened?
"What's wrong? What happened?" Looking at Mu Huan's expression, Yin Yi also started to get nervous.
"We went out separately last night, hoping to find out about the current situation in Yunxue City. We agreed to reunite at the inn at dawn. But until now, none of them have returned!" Mu Huan scratched his hair, furious! Something might have really happened to them.
"Why are you guys trying to find out about Yunxue City?" Yin Yi was a little confused. Please forgive his brain for not being able to think.
"That's right. Forget it. I can't explain it to you right away." Mu Huan was very anxious now. Suddenly, a ball of paper was thrown in from outside the door. The person came quickly and left even faster. It was impossible to see his whereabouts clearly.
Mu Huan didn't have time to think about it and quickly opened the paper ball.
"They are in the hands of the Lord of Yunxue City, and they are preparing to perform a sacrifice tonight!" The "they" on the paper were self-evident; they were Mu Qing and his group. But, a sacrifice? What on earth did the Lord of Yunxue City want to do?
Suddenly thinking of something, Mu Huan looked at Yin Yi with a puzzled look, "Why did you suddenly appear in front of me last night?" Mu Huan's intuition told him that their meeting last night was definitely not an accident.
"The aura from you attracted my newly made puppet." Yin Yi also felt it was strange. This situation had never happened before when he made puppets.
"My scent?" Mu Huan raised his hand and sniffed the clothes carefully, "There is no smell!" Looking at Yin Yi, Mu Huan had a silly and cute face.
Silver Wing held his forehead and said, "I don't mean the taste on the surface! Are you stupid?" How could this human be so stupid? The more Silver Wing looked at him, the more disgusted he became.
"What's with that expression on your face?" Mu Huan was very angry. This half-demon actually laughed at her?
"The smell I'm referring to is the unique human breath, or the breath of your spiritual power, or the breath of your natal spirit beast. Puppets are different from humans. They are talents given by humans and have abilities that you can't imagine." Yin Yi's tone was full of praise for the puppet.
"So strong? Could it be that my friend was also targeted by the puppet because of this aura?" Mu Huan felt dizzy at the thought, and felt that things were becoming more and more complicated. She had to stay calm, and now she was the only one who could rely on her.
"Maybe!" Yin Yi shrugged, indicating that he was not quite sure.
"What on earth does this Yunxue City Lord want to do?" Mu Huan fell into deep thought. Making puppets, capturing people, and performing sacrifices, could it be that he wants to...
"Could it be that the Lord of Yunxue City wants to use my friend as a puppet?" Mu Huan was so angry that he wanted to curse, "But why would he target my friend? Could it be that the encounter with Gu Sheng and the others was a conspiracy from the beginning?" The thought was terrifying, and Mu Huan slapped his head in annoyance.
"A good puppet needs to be made by a talented person. That's why I chose you to make my puppet!" Yin Yi's words woke the dreamer up.
"Looks like I'll have to meet the legendary Lord of Yunxue City." Mu Huan narrowed his eyes, already making a plan. "By the way, what's your relationship with this Lord of Yunxue City?"
Mu Huan looked at Yin Yi, and the more he looked, the more he felt that they must have been in the same group before.
"He came to me and asked me to help make the puppet, but I didn't agree!" Yin Yi said with a bit of arrogance.
"What? You look down on me?" Mu Huan thought it was funny. Didn't he really like being a puppet? Why did he refuse the opportunity when it came?
"His materials are too poor!" Yin Yi's tone was full of disgust. The strength and talent of the people that the Lord of Yunxue City could give to him were too mixed and too poor.
"No wonder they targeted Brother Mu and the others." Mu Huan rubbed her smooth chin with her fingers. No wonder puppetry was considered a forbidden technique. The materials used in its refining were of the highest quality and very selective. She had always thought puppets weren't picky.
"The sacrifice will be held in the evening. It seems I have to act in advance." Mu Huan's eyes were a little solemn. This was not a small matter. She had to be adequately prepared. After all, it all depended on her now.
Glancing at Yin Yi who was standing beside him, Mu Huan raised a smile full of calculation and conspiracy, and even his eyes when he looked at Yin Yi were different.
"Hey, aren't you going to protect me? Then you have to cooperate with me fully!" To protect her, you have to help her. After all, she is so "weak" and she will die if she is not careful.
She didn't want to refuse the help she got for free. Only then did she feel that the woman had finally done something good. Who made that woman leave a mess for her to clean up every time she acted arrogantly?
"How, how can I cooperate with you?" Yin Yi felt a chill down his spine as Mu Huan looked at him. He shuddered all over. Why did this woman seem to be just as bad as that one?!
"Just cooperate with me, why are you talking so much nonsense!" Mu Huan's attitude towards Yin Yi was not very good. After all, he was the one who almost took her life, and she always held a grudge.
"......!!!" Yin Yi couldn't believe that there was such a rude woman in this world. Even the women of the Orcs were not as barbaric as her!
