Gao Mansion.
Located on the west side of Taoyuan Town, its red walls and green tiles are enough to highlight the difference between it and other surrounding houses.
Three years of severe drought have caused Taoyuan Town to become what it is today, and the once prosperous Gao Mansion has also become desolate and dilapidated.
But even so, Gao Junran was still very generous in helping the people of Taoyuan Town, which made his image in the eyes of everyone become extremely glorious and majestic, and also raised the status of the Gao family in everyone's hearts.
The fox girl and the black bear man walked quickly into Gao's house and stopped at a deserted garden.
The two demons looked around and after making sure no one was paying attention, the fox girl made a strange gesture with her hands and muttered something.
Suddenly,
A vortex-shaped portal suddenly appeared on the flat ground. They walked straight into it, and then the portal disappeared, and everything was as if nothing had happened.
In just a moment, the fox girl and the black bear man appeared in a secret room.
This secret room is extremely spacious and is made entirely of black stones. These stones are covered with dense runes, making them look extremely mysterious.
The secret room was very dark, with only the faint light from the demonic fire embedded in the wall.
What's even more bizarre is that there is a red coffin in the center of the secret room, which looks extremely creepy.
At this moment, in the north of the secret room, a man in a black robe stood with his hands behind his back.
The fox girl and the black bear man walked behind the black-robed man and half-knelt respectfully.
"Owner."
"Well, get up."
The man in black robe slowly turned around, and the extremely familiar face was none other than Gao Junran, the patriarch of the Gao family!
At this moment, Gao Junran's face still had that gentle expression, but unlike before, there was a hint of coldness on his face.
"How's it going?"
Gao Junran asked.
The fox girl did not dare to hide anything and quickly said with a smile:
"Everything is done, Master. You asked me to find a chance to test the depth of that foreign man, and I have tried it."
"Oh? How?"
"Master, you're worrying too much. I effortlessly bewitched him with my charm. He offered no resistance at all, proving he's just an ordinary mortal. There's no need for you to worry."
Gao Junran heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes and asked:
"Really?"
The fox girl played with her black hair in her hands and said with a smug smile:
"Of course, Lao Hei was there at the time. If you don't believe me, just ask Lao Hei."
Before Gao Junran could speak, the black bear man hurriedly said:
"Yes, that's right."
Gao Junran nodded, thought for a moment and then said:
"Am I really overthinking it? But I always have a bad feeling when I face that foreign man. Why is that?"
But after thinking for a while, Gao Junran couldn't find any reason, which made him hesitant for a while.
However, when he hesitated and looked at the red coffin in the center of the secret room, he suddenly made a decision in his heart, and then said in a firm tone:
"In that case, you should act tonight."
"yes!"
"Also, remember to be careful and as silent as possible. Most importantly, don't hurt that foreign woman. You must return her to me unharmed, or you know the consequences."
When Gao Junran said this, a cold look flashed in his eyes, which made the fox girl and the black bear man tremble in their hearts.
"Yes! I will remember this, Master, please rest assured!"
Gao Junran didn't say anything else, but made a gesture, and the fox girl and the black bear man walked out tactfully.
At this moment, Gao Junran was the only one left in the empty secret room.
Gao Junran slowly walked towards the red coffin in the center of the secret room, only to see that there was a beautiful woman in the coffin.
The woman was not wearing any clothes. She was very fair and had shiny skin with a rosy complexion. She looked like an eighteen-year-old girl who had fallen asleep, with her eyes quietly closed.
All this seems normal, but if you look closely you will find that there is something wrong with this woman!
There were bloody wounds on her neck, arms, base of legs, temples and many other places, and they were covered with faintly visible needle and thread holes, as if her whole body was sewn together with silk thread!
Gao Junran slowly bent down and gently stroked the face of the woman in the coffin with his big hands.
At this moment, the expression on his face was filled with infinite tenderness.
"Yunniang, God has truly blessed me. He has allowed me to find a woman who is suitable to replace your body. You can rest assured. I know you loved beauty when you were alive, so the one I chose is very beautiful. You will definitely like it."
Gao Junran said this with a smile, but his smile was three parts miserable and seven parts morbid.
…
In the inn room.
Mu Qingxue looked at Ning Jie in surprise and asked in disbelief:
"You said those two people were demons?"
Ning Jie nodded with an affirmative look in his eyes.
Just now, in order to appease Mu Qingxue, he told her about his discovery.
"But why don't I detect any demonic energy in them?"
"I'm not sure about the details. Maybe it's because they have something that can conceal their aura, but I'm sure they are demons."
This time, Mu Qingxue understood why Ning Jie pretended to be bewitched by the magic. It turned out that he had a purpose.
