Li Muge curled her lips into a smile: "It's too late for you to realize this now."
Little Peony was keeping watch for Li Muge at the alley entrance when she heard a scream, but it was over in an instant.
Then there was no more sound.
"Done." Li Muge dispelled the formation, and in the alley, those scoundrels lay on the ground.
His head was twisted off, and he was no longer breathing.
Little Peony wasn't afraid at all; instead, she smiled so broadly that her eyes crinkled into crescent moons: "Mu Ge, you're amazing."
Li Muge's left hand was trembling incessantly, trying to hide his unease. He didn't know why, when he was killing someone.
She suddenly found herself unable to control herself.
The woman she was just moments ago, the woman she was when she committed murder, was someone even Li Muge herself felt unfamiliar with.
"Mu Ge, what's wrong?" Xiao Shaoyao asked with concern. She took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped away the bloodstains from Li Mu Ge's hand.
"It's alright, let's go quickly." To avoid attracting attention, Li Muge and Xiao Shaoyao separated and walked away.
They agreed to meet at an inn in the city.
Just ahead was the bustling downtown area, teeming with people. Li Muge was about to leave.
Suddenly, a five- or six-year-old girl fell down in front of her.
"How are you, little girl?" Li Muge smelled the little girl's scent as she helped her up.
It has an extremely strong scent of rouge and face powder.
This fragrance is not strange on an adult woman, but it seems rather odd on a five or six-year-old girl.
When the little girl looked up, her childlike face combined with extremely heavy makeup stunned Li Mu.
"Get away." The little girl's eyes were wary as she walked past Li Muge and ran away.
"You brat, don't run! You're going to die no matter where you run." Several adult men who looked like thugs chased after the little girl, brandishing sticks.
Li Muge sensed something was wrong.
An idea arose in her mind.
How could a little girl of only five or six years old outrun several adult men? In this way, the little girl was knocked unconscious by one of the thugs with a stick and taken back.
The little girl was hanging upside down, and drops of blood fell to the ground.
With people watching nearby, all they could say was, "What a terrible thing to do."
"What sins have you committed?" Li Muge asked instinctively, but those people avoided his gaze and remained silent.
Li Muge seemed to understand something.
She secretly followed the thugs and discovered that they had brought the unconscious little girl to a place resembling a brothel.
"Beast." Li Muge gritted his teeth, about to draw his sword and go inside, when he suddenly realized that he was outside the brothel.
There was actually a feng shui formation set up there.
If she rashly takes action inside, she is easily restricted by magic. What Li Muge fears even more is that if she manages to rescue the child, she might alert the enemy.
After much deliberation.
Li Muge sent a telepathic message to Yun Qi, informing him of what had happened and hoping that he could discuss the matter with others and coordinate an attack from within and without.
Upon hearing the word "male prostitute," Li Muge could clearly sense that Yun Qi had instantly turned sinister.
It's frightening, it sends chills down your spine.
"Mu Ge, come back first. Someone who can do something like this is definitely not an ordinary person."
Yun Qi suppressed the gloom in his eyes and gently comforted Li Muge.
"No, the Regent and his ilk are beasts. I'm afraid this little girl will run away, and they'll beat her to death."
"I'll figure out a way to sneak in first, and then you can come and help me from the inside."
Before Yun Qi could speak, Li Muge sealed the communication ring.
She went into the shadows and transformed into a chubby and adorable four-year-old girl.
In order to make others completely believe that she was a child, Li Muge deliberately made her hands, feet and face extremely dirty.
"Father, Father, where are you, Father?" Li Muge transformed into a child and cried as she walked in front of the brothel.
Anyone with a conscience can't bear to see this. This little girl is so young; this is a living hell.
Those beasts who cry out then will suffer more than if they were dead.
Thinking of this, a woman prepared to step forward and pull Li Muge away.
But the manager of this brothel had already come out, and as soon as he came out, he set his sights on the dumpling-like Li Muge.
If this were in their building, many guests would definitely like it.
"Go away, go away! Where did this kidnapper come from? This is one of our Fengyue Tower's kids, how dare you kidnap him?"
The manager of the brothel, Guan, would turn the tables and blame the victim.
Seeing that the steward had already taken a liking to Li Muge, the woman hesitated for a long time before finally leaving.
She also has children at home; if she were to lose her life, her children would likely suffer the same fate.
Thinking of this, the woman walked away and couldn't help but "cry".
Although there are many zombies outside.
But what's even more terrifying is that these are the same races of humankind that we should be wary of.
"Little sister, where are you from? Where is your father?"
The manager of the brothel had a pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks.
“My father said he would find me something to eat, but he has disappeared. Uncle, could you help me find my father?”
"Oh dear, stop crying, little sister. Why don't you come to your uncle's house for a while? Your uncle will send someone to find your father."
The manager gave his subordinate a wink, and the subordinate immediately understood, leading Li Muge, who had turned into a child, inside.
Upon entering the building, the subordinate who had been holding Li Muge immediately changed his attitude, dragged Li Muge, and locked him in a dark room.
"Give this new girl a bath tonight. If she gets the attention of a powerful person, it will be her good fortune, and you'll get your share of the benefits too."
The manager gave instructions to an old woman.
"Yes, yes, yes, this old woman doesn't want any benefits. I'm only alive because you gentlemen have given me food."
This old woman is called Granny Wang.
Before the apocalypse, she was a human slave trader, so she felt no unease about doing such a despicable thing.
Instead, he happily locked the door and went out.
After Granny Wang left, Li Muge opened her eyes and felt that the place was unusually quiet.
She took out the luminous beads and emitted a faint light.
Only then did I realize that the small room was filled with countless cages.
Each cage contained a boy or a girl, mostly between three and ten years old.
Upon seeing the light, the children huddled in a corner, too afraid to make a sound.
Li Muge's eyes stung with tears. These beasts were the ones who deserved to go to hell.
Don't they have children of their own?
Treating other people's children like this, aren't you afraid that one day the retribution will fall on your own children?
"Squeak, squeak, squeak." Li Muge heard the mouse squeak and raised the luminous bead in her hand.
The rats were surrounding the little girl who had just run away, seemingly without anything else, but probably biting at the six-year-old girl's flesh.
Li Muge hurriedly stepped forward and used the light to drive away the rats.
"Little girl." Li Muge raised her hand and touched the little girl's head, where blood was still flowing continuously.
No matter how she called out, there was no response. Li Muge quickly poured out a life-saving pill and fed it to the little girl.
The sound of footsteps indicated that Granny Wang had returned, and Li Muge quickly put away the beads.
