Enraged, the weasel transformed into a blur and sprang forward, heading straight for her face.
Caught off guard, Zhong Qin staggered backward a few steps, bumped into a tree trunk, twisted her waist, and was also hit in the body. When she tried to retaliate, she was already unable to move easily.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the weasel attacked and bit her hard: "Zhong Qin, you better behave yourself! Otherwise, I'll make sure you die here tonight."
As he spoke, he took a step back.
Wu Yang walked gracefully from behind him. When he saw Zhong Qin in such a disheveled state, a strange light flashed in his eyes. He had thought that the women of the Zhong family were so powerful, but now it seemed that they were nothing special.
only……
"Old Huang, who told you to treat Madam Zhong like that?"
"Didn't you say..." The weasel didn't have that many tricks up its sleeve, and instinctively wanted to shout back, but halfway through its sentence, it received his cold gaze and instantly fell silent.
This man is very capable.
Within just a few days, they found his hiding place and threatened him.
Seeing their interaction, Zhong Qin knew that this was the real person, and her expression changed slightly: "Are you from the Celestial Masters Sect? Since you're here, why hide yourself?"
Wu Yang shook his head, feigning helplessness: "Madam Zhong, we don't want to do this either, but we're forced into it. Who can blame us? The heir you chose is just too outstanding! He's ruined our plans time and time again, forcing me to be on guard."
Zhong Qin pursed her lips. She had heard Zhong Yan talk about what happened at school before, and now that he was bringing it up again, she almost instantly recalled the past.
Just as she said, it was a trap, and those people all had ulterior motives.
Damn it!
Looking at her expression, Wu Yang showed no fear whatsoever: "Madam Zhong, over the years, our two families have kept to themselves, maintaining a clear separation. Now, you're the ones who break down this door first..."
Zhong Qin sneered. "That sounds so high-sounding, but who broke down this door first? They all popped up one by one, causing trouble for my granddaughter. I haven't even gone to settle accounts with them yet, and they're already catching their breath."
"Stop with the nonsense, just tell me, what brought you here today!"
"Madam Zhong is so straightforward!" Wu Yang sighed dramatically. "My name is Wu Yang. I am the second disciple of the Celestial Master Sect. I am currently on my master's orders to find a soul and perform its salvation."
"Nonsense!" Zhong Qin gritted her teeth. "I've been in this business for so many years, how could I not know that to convert souls, one needs to set up an altar and put them inside to perform rituals?"
“Madam Zhong, there might be some misunderstanding.” Wu Yang said without blinking, seemingly frank, “We are all from respectable backgrounds, how could we do such a heinous thing?”
Zhong Qin narrowed her eyes, scrutinizing his expression. He looked like a hypocrite, dressed in a long robe, with a peaceful expression between his brows, unlike someone who would commit evil.
However, his eyes...
"Wu Yang, you don't need to say anything."
“Madam Zhong, you have been in this line of work for many years, so you should know that nowadays no soul can go to the underworld normally. My master’s actions are all to uphold the righteous path in this world. Otherwise, it would be too late to do it later.”
"Upholding the righteous path?" Zhong Qin's heart skipped a beat. Thinking of what Zhong Yan had said, she felt like crying. The Xuanming Token must really exist.
