At this moment.
The sound of panicked guards came from outside the door.
What's all this noise about?
The head of the Mu family frowned deeply.
"The warehouse...the warehouse is on fire!"
"What!"
The Mu family.
Everyone ran towards the warehouse, and even Mu Nan, the head of the Mu family, couldn't hold back any longer.
The most important thing is not the warehouse, but what's inside the warehouse's hidden door.
When Mu Nan arrived, the fire in the warehouse was raging even more fiercely, showing no signs of stopping.
"What are you all standing there for? Put out the fire!" the head of the Mu family roared.
He tried to rush into the warehouse, but the fire was too big, and he couldn't get close at all.
It took a long time before the fire was extinguished.
"The house, the head of the family... everything in the storeroom is gone!"
The guard limped over to report that his leg had been hit by a beam while he was putting out the fire.
Bang! Mu Nan kicked the guard in the chest. "All gone?! What were you doing? How could it have caught fire?!"
Mu Nan was so angry he almost fainted. He rushed over, only to find the warehouse burned down to an empty shell.
When Mu Nan saw that his secret room had been opened and was completely empty, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Who, who is it! Damn it!" If Mu Qing hadn't been supporting him, the head of the Mu family would have already collapsed to the ground.
It's all gone.
All his hard work over the years is gone!
Even the treasures in the dark room are all gone, and most importantly, the Netherworld Karmic Fire is gone!
That was his most treasured possession. He had refused Mu Shen's request to see it back then.
That's the karmic fire of the underworld!
But now... the place where the Netherworld Karmic Fire was stored is empty, nothing is left.
Even the contents of the warehouse were completely swept away.
"No, it's all gone, all gone. Who was it?!"
Mu Nan roared angrily, his eyes glaring fiercely at the warehouse that had been burned down to its bare frame.
"Seal off the Mu family compound! Don't let even a fly out!!!"
Mu Nan roared.
The Mu family's defenses were extremely tight, especially the storeroom. Mu Nan was very confident in the defenses of the mansion, but reality gave him a harsh slap in the face.
At this time.
The person who started this whole thing had long since left the Mu residence.
Indeed, it was Liu Yue who did it. Surprisingly, the Mu family is truly wealthy; they have countless Earth-rank magic artifacts alone.
Not to mention the Netherworld Karmic Fire, but her palm was burned in order to contract with it.
It still hurts like hotcakes.
"Ouch, you woman! Who wants to make a contract with you? Let me go!"
The Netherworld Flames danced wildly in Liuyue's soul sea, howling in a childish voice.
"Let me out! Let me out! You shameless woman!" the Netherworld Flame roared.
"Give it to me." Yin Ming's eyes were dark and unreadable as he saw the burns on Liu Yue's palm.
"good."
Liu Yue handed the Netherworld Karmic Fire to Yin Ming.
"Ha, don't even think about making a contract with me! I don't want to be contracted by you mortals... Demons!!!" The childish voice suddenly screamed, even cracking.
"Let me go, waaaaah, let me go! I'm just a child! Woman, how can you be so cruel! Waaaaah..."
The Netherworld Flame was held captive in Yin Ming's palm and unable to move. Sensing the man's terrifying aura, it instantly became docile.
Liu Yue didn't understand why the Netherworld Karmic Fire suddenly screamed. Was this man that scary? But then she thought about how this guy had burned her.
"Ah Ming, don't hold back."
“Okay.” Yin Ming said succinctly, throwing the Netherworld Karmic Fire into the Sea of Souls, and then grasped Liu Yue’s hand.
Jun Liuyue was stunned for a moment, looking at him with a puzzled expression, "I'm not in much pain, it's just a minor injury."
"It's not a minor injury."
Yin Ming stubbornly held her hand.
Before Liuyue could respond, a cool sensation enveloped her burning hand.
The wound is healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Jun Liuyue was slightly taken aback. This kind of injury was indeed not a big deal for her, and there was no need to use her soul power to heal it.
Soul power consumes a great deal of mental energy for cultivators.
"Wait for me to come back."
Yin Ming released her hand and left with the Netherworld Karmic Fire.
Looking at the man's back, Liu Yue was reminded of some unpleasant memories.
"Jun Liuyue, Jun Liuyue, what are you thinking?" The girl's lips twitched slightly. "He is the Demon Lord!"
Besides, she has no interest in men, not even if a perfect man stood in front of her.
But Yin Ming... is just too handsome!
The next morning, news spread that the Mu family had been robbed. First, the Crown Prince was assassinated, and now the Mu family had been robbed, with even the storeroom burned down!
The Mu family searched almost the entire imperial city, but found not a single clue.
That petty thief seemed to have vanished into thin air.
The head of the Mu family was so angry that he fainted several times and vomited blood several times.
This news also reached Sikong Yu's ears, because his dantian had been miraculously repaired thanks to the Spirit Gathering Elixir!
Sikong Yu sent several invitations to the Qilin Pavilion, hoping to request an audience with the Ghost Doctor, but was refused each time.
At this moment.
"Your Highness, someone from the Jun residence has arrived."
"The Jun family?" Sikong Yu frowned. He had almost forgotten that he still owed Jun Liuyue 30 million spirit stones.
Can--
He spent all his money on Spirit Gathering Elixir, and even owed the Ghost Doctor ten million spirit stones. Naturally, he wouldn't dare to repay someone like the Ghost Doctor.
"Your Highness, you don't mean you don't want to pay back the money, do you?"
Long Zhen cut to the chase, "My young lady said that if you refuse to give it, then don't blame me for offending you!"
"Insolence!" Sikong Yu rebuked.
"Whether or not you act presumptuously is not up to His Highness to decide," Long Zhen said with a smile. "Men, search! Take away everything of value."
"presumptuous!!"
"Guards, get these people out of here right now!"
"Cough cough cough."
Sikong Yu's injuries hadn't fully healed, and he was coughing so hard his lungs felt like they were going to explode. "Long Zhen, if you continue to be so insolent, I, the Crown Prince, will exterminate your entire family!"
“Your Highness, what a coincidence, of my nine generations of relatives, only I remain.”
Long Zhen said with a smile, "Continue searching! His Highness the Crown Prince is not feeling well, it would be better if he sat down."
As soon as he finished speaking, Sikong Yu was forced into a chair.
Sikong Yuqi coughed up blood, but Long Zhen was the commander of the Xuanwu Army, and every guard he brought was well-trained.
The incompetent officials of the Crown Prince's residence were no match for the Xuanwu Army.
