"Thank you for your kindness, owner of the village. But I have something important to do, so I will come to disturb you another day." Mu Lingtian had to be on guard, because this was probably a trap, so Mu Lingtian had to refuse the offer. An unexpected kindness.
The guard took out a letter from his arms: "Our village owner said that if you are unwilling to go, please read this letter first."
Mu Lingtian took the envelope, opened it, and said briefly: "I wonder if Young Master Tianling is interested in the Mu family's affairs?"
Seeing this sentence, Mu Lingtian showed a surprised expression and held the letter tightly in his hand. He had no choice. Even if there was a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of him, he had to go and take a look. Mu Lingtian looked at the guard: "Please." Lead the way!"
Mu Lingtian and Luo Xue got off their horses. The guards took the horses and led Mu Lingtian and Luo Xue towards Hupao Villa.
"Hurry and tell the master that Young Hero Tianling is here."
Having arrived at the gate of Hupao Villa, Mu Lingtian whispered to Luoxue: "Don't leave me even half a step!"
Luo Xue nodded, and the guards led Mu Lingtian and Luo Xue toward the hall.
Bai Yu looked listless in the hall. He was considered dead now, so he only thought about his wife and children, thinking to himself: "Madam, Lian'er, you should have arrived at Phoenix Villa by this time, right? "
A guard ran in: "Master, Young Hero Tianling is here!"
Hearing the guard's words, Bai Yu came back to his senses, looked outside the hall, and sighed: "What is supposed to come has finally come, let's get down!"
Bai Yu took a deep breath and walked out of the hall.
"Young hero Tianling, I'm Bai Yu, I've been admiring you for a long time!" Bai Yu clasped his hands in his fists, laughed, and greeted Mu Lingtian politely.
Mu Lingtian had been looking around since he entered Hupao Villa. Everything seemed to be normal and there was no danger. He didn't see any murderous intent in Bai Yu's eyes, but it was clear that he was lured up, so this made him come here. Mu Lingtian was even more surprised.
Mu Lingtian could not find either the voice or the person in his memory, but the other party seemed to know his identity, so Mu Lingtian could only be more careful.
Although Mu Lingtian only came to Huran Villa for one thing, he still needed to be polite. He clasped his fists in return and looked at Bai Yu carefully: "Master Bai!"
Bai Yu smiled politely: "You two, please come inside!"
Mu Lingtian had no choice but to use his plan to see what Bai Yu wanted to do.
Entering the hall, Bai Yu entertained Mu Lingtian as if he were a distinguished guest. The conversation was also very polite, and he said some polite words, just like a simple admiration, as if he had no purpose, and he was very polite about the affairs of the Mu family. Not a word was mentioned.
Whether it was tea or food, Mu Lingtian was extra careful, but there was no problem with any of them, which made Mu Lingtian a little confused.
This chat lasted for most of the day. Seeing that it was getting dark, Bai Yu entertained Mu Lingtian warmly again.
Of course, there was nothing wrong with all the food. Apart from being cautious, Mu Lingtian's only other course was to use tricks to see what Bai Yu wanted to do.
After dinner, Bai Yu sighed deeply, with a strange expression on his smiling face: "Young Master Tianling must want to know the reason why I lured you to Hupao Villa, right?"
Mu Lingtian didn't speak, just looked at Bai Yu. Bai Yu stood up and said, "It's a long story. Please come with me, Master Tianling, and you will understand everything!"
Mu Lingtian and Luoxue followed Bai Yu to Bai Yu's study!
Bai Yu rotated a box on the bookshelf, and a secret compartment opened. There were many things in the secret compartment, and there was a box at the bottom. Bai Yu took the box out, put it on the table, and looked at Mu Lingtian. Opened the box!
It looks like a black dress and a ghost mask with the word "tiger" written on the forehead of the mask!
Mu Lingtian's eyes widened in surprise, and he instantly became more cautious. As soon as Bai Yu made any movement, he would definitely draw his sword before Bai Yu.
"Young Master Tianling, don't worry. If I wanted to kill you, you wouldn't be like this now." Bai Yu took out the mask, put it in his hand and looked at it carefully: "Twelve zodiac signs, tiger!"
Bai Yu seemed to be laughing at himself and threw the mask back into the box.
Bai Yu was right. If he wanted to kill Mu Lingtian, then why would he show this to Mu Lingtian? However, Mu Lingtian still did not dare to let down his guard because he knew that only by being careful would he live longer.
Mu Lingtian looked at Bai Yu again at this moment, thinking that the previous tiger mask killer seemed a little too weak: "Are you the real tiger? Was the last one a fake?"
Bai Yu smiled and nodded: "Yes, I am the real tiger, that is just a scapegoat they found for me!"
"Why do you do this?"
"There's no reason, just because I'm already dead!" Bai Yu seemed very calm.
Mu Lingtian looked at Bai Yu in confusion: "Why?"
"If I can't kill you, I will die. If I can kill you, I will die too. It's just that the method of death is different and the price is different."
Mu Lingtian said nothing and looked at Bai Yu with puzzled eyes: "Then why did you do this?"
"Although I can't kill you, it doesn't mean that I don't want to kill you!" There was a trace of hatred in Bai Yu's eyes. He looked at Mu Lingtian, as if he was talking about his grudge against Mu Lingtian: "And I have to do all the tricks, right? How else can you hide it from me?"
"Who wants to kill me?"
"Shen Moyu, the Young Master of the Xiaoyao Clan!" Speaking of Shen Moyu, Bai Yu seemed to have infinite hatred in his eyes, and you could feel his anger from his tone!
"Shen Moyu! It is indeed him! So what happened back then was planned by him?"
"Yes, Shen Moyu planned the Mu family tragedy in order to avenge him for taking his wife." Bai Yu fell into memories: "Shen Moyu and Liu Juan had known each other since childhood, and Shen Moyu had always favored Liu Juan. Power is something that everyone yearns for. Due to various reasons, Liu Juan became a victim of power and married Mu Zili. Therefore, Shen Moyu vowed that no chicken or dog of the Mu family would be left in this life, so for that day, he worked hard It took three years of planning!”
"It turns out that's really why!"
Bai Yu nodded and smiled happily: "However, although he carefully planned for Liu Juan for three years, no one expected that in the end Liu Juan was inexplicably poisoned to death and was hit by several swords. So. He still failed to succeed, but instead went crazy for more than ten years! What retribution, haha!"
The truth seemed to come out, but Mu Lingtian didn't expect that things were really like this, and everything was Shen Moyu's revenge.
