Being in it myself, I naturally know how difficult it is for a demon with good intentions in this world and amid the fear of mortals.
Looking at the girl's bloodshot and widened eyes, she felt like something had struck her heart.
Die with your eyes open!
Maybe this will be her fate in the future.
Mu Yichang put her hands on the girl's eyes and gently closed her eyelids.
She drew a charm on the girl's forehead and closed her eyes.
Recalling the life of the dead soul, Mu Yichang entered the space a quarter of an hour before the girl's death.
There was darkness in front of him, the darkness of night, so quiet and intimidating.
After a long time, a creak broke the silence in the room.
The window was slowly opened, and a human figure whose whole body was covered in pitch black got in.
Yes, it's not that he's covered in black, but that his skin is so black that even his eyes and hands can't be seen.
Mu Yichang frowned, not knowing what this was.
She watched the black figure slowly approach the couch.
It was probably because the figure knew that the monk living next door was a monk, so he deliberately used the silent spell and even sneaked closer just in case.
Not long after, the figure had arrived in front of the bed.
The girl on the bed seemed to feel someone approaching. The moment she opened her eyes, her mouth was covered by the black hand.
The girl couldn't make any sound. She wanted to struggle, but her body seemed to be controlled by a spell and she couldn't move at all.
She could only look at the black shadow in front of her in horror, her pupils shaking violently.
The next second, the black shadow let go of his hand, but the girl still couldn't make any sound. She just widened her eyes and looked at the black shadow in panic and fear.
The shadow's hand fell on the girl's abdomen, piercing the girl's flesh accurately.
The girl's pupils were constricted due to severe pain.
But even so, she still couldn't speak out or resist.
She almost watched as her internal organs were taken out, and the pain became more and more intense, until her eyes gradually lost focus in her weakness.
The black shadow seemed to be looking for something. Even after the girl died, he still pulled out her internal organs and threw them aside.
After a long time, the black shadow finally stopped, probably because he found what he wanted.
The black hand took out the thing tightly and held it in the palm of his hand.
Mu Yichang tried her best to get closer, but she could only faintly see a little red.
However, Heiying's hands were covered in blood, and Mu Yichang couldn't even tell whether the red color was blood or something else.
After getting what he wanted, Heiying used magic to clean up the blood on his body, and then climbed out of the window again and left the inn without hesitation.
The window was closed by the black shadow, and Mu Yichang couldn't leave the inn with her investigative ability, so she couldn't catch up.
She could only withdraw from the death-hunting spell and slowly opened her eyes.
The death of the girl in front of her was the same as what she saw. The only difference was that the girl's frightened eyes were closed by Mu Yichang.
"Sister?" Mu Yihan, who had been waiting for a long time, called her.
Mu Yichang turned around and said to him, "He is a man of advanced cultivation."
Mu Yihan's brows tightened, as if she was thinking about something.
Yes, he should have thought of it.
The strong man yesterday was an ordinary mortal. He didn't have even the slightest bit of cultivation, let alone advanced cultivation.
So, this means that the girl’s death was not caused by that person.
Mu Yihan was silent for a long time and said, "Did that person say it yesterday?"
Mu Yichang was startled, "What?"
The young man gritted his teeth and said, "He said that he can't deal with you and will find someone to deal with you."
Mu Yishang never took such harsh words to heart, but she didn't care at all. Unexpectedly, Mu Yihan actually remembered them all.
Mu Yihan said: "In my opinion, there must be a powerful person behind that bastard to support him. Maybe the person with advanced cultivation that sister mentioned is the person behind that bastard!"
Mu Yichang: "It's not impossible, but I always feel that maybe..."
Halfway through her words, she was silent for a moment, as if hesitating whether to say something or not.
Under Mu Yihan's confused gaze, she shook her head and said, "Maybe I made a mistake. I'll accompany you out to find the man from yesterday. Then the truth will come to light."
Mu Yihan nodded, "Okay."
When Gu Liushang heard the conversation between the two, he immediately left the door and stood a little further away.
After the two came out, Gu Liushang asked: "How is the situation? Has Master discovered anything?"
Sure enough, as he thought, Mu Yichang did not want him to participate in it, but smiled softly and said: "It's okay, Yihan and I are going out for a while, and Ah Zhan is waiting for us to come back at the inn. alright."
But Gu Liushang quickly grabbed her sleeve and said nervously: "But Master, I...I'm afraid. That girl...is she dead? I don't dare to stay here alone. If Master comes back, , what should I do if the murderous maniac is back again?"
Mu Yichang felt that what he said made sense, so she changed her mind and said, "Well, you'd better follow us."
Gu Liushang nodded with satisfaction.
Although his cultivation level is not high, he is a descendant of the God Clan after all. How can he be killed by ordinary people?
If this were not the case, after the death of his previous master, he would not have sought death for many years before finally achieving his wish.
However, this situation was strange, and he felt vaguely uneasy in his heart. He felt that all this might be directed at his master, and he had to follow him to check on the situation in case of emergency.
As soon as the three of them walked down the stairs, the shopkeeper who was tapping the abacus looked over.
There seemed to be something strange in his eyes, as if he was wary of the three of them.
Gu Liushang held Mu Yichang's hand, lowered his voice and said in her ear: "Master, it seems that what happened last night has been spread."
Mu Yichang's eyes darkened, a little surprised.
Although she did stand up for the demon yesterday, she was not so wary.
What surprised her even more was that the news in Fairy City seemed to be transmitted too fast.
But overnight, even the innkeeper knew about it?
No, it's not just that.
Mu Yichang's eyes fell on the diners sitting in the lobby.
Everyone's eyes seemed to be on her, and some even lowered their heads quickly when she looked over.
As the master of Shuiyue Palace, she has irradiated Fairy City for many years. There are many people in the city who don't know her.
But now she just protected the former between the good demon and the evil guy, and quickly became the target of public criticism?
Mu Yichang sighed in her heart, but she could only say to Gu Liushang: "It doesn't matter, we just don't care."
Even if she pretends to be nonchalant on the surface, Gu Liushang knows better than anyone how much Mu Yichang cares about the opinions of the people in the world.
His eyes darkened and he remained silent.
After walking out of the inn, passers-by on the street also gave the three people strange looks.
Mu Yihan had a bad temper. He couldn't stand it anymore. He immediately got angry, pointed at a circle of passers-by around him, and said angrily: "I told you, what are you looking at? Have you never seen grandpa?"
He roared so powerfully that the passers-by were frightened and dispersed.
Mu Yihan spat angrily, "They are all the bastards of a group of forces. Even among the monsters, such things are rare!"
Compared with mortals, demons follow their nature. Even evil demons only do it for their own interests, and their evil deeds are straightforward. They are never like the mortals in this fairy city, who can rudder according to the wind and sway in the wind!
Mu Yichang shook her head at him and said: "Yihan, don't be angry. These people are just afraid of power. We just don't have the same understanding as them."
Mu Yihan snorted and said: "I always thought that you had a respected position as the palace master in Shuanghua Sect, which could not be shaken by others, so I was worried that you would be arrogant and would not recognize me. Now. It seems that you are not living a satisfactory life in this Shuanghua Sect, you are walking on thin ice with fear!"
He glanced at Mu Yichang, and then said: "If I had known this, I should have taken you away from Shuanghua Gate earlier. The world is so big, there is always a place where you can be free and at ease, unlike this ghost place, where there is no distinction between right and wrong. Don’t know right from wrong!”
Mu Yichang smiled and said: "Wherever there are people, there will be rules. It is difficult to pursue absolute freedom. Besides..."
She stopped her smile and her eyes darkened a little, "Besides, after so many years, I have been domesticated like this, and I have long lost the hope of pursuing equality and freedom. As for right and wrong, they are inherently intertwined, so it is impossible. You can tell them apart completely. Yihan, you don’t understand this now, but you will understand it in the future.”
Of course Mu Yihan didn't understand and couldn't understand it.
He snorted and said, "It's up to you, I don't care about you."
Naturally, the young man would not be happy if his good intentions were betrayed.
When he is angry, he will inevitably become awkward.
Mu Yichang was also good-tempered, and just said: "Don't worry about me, these are nothing to me. I am much stronger than Yihan imagined."
However, it is currently in trouble.
Wherever the three men went, the people were very vigilant and did not provide them with any clues at all.
After walking around Fairy City, I still didn't get any information.
There was really no other way, so Mu Yichang had no choice but to take the two of them to the City Lord's Mansion.
The city lord of Fairy City is a disciple of Shuanghua Sect. He can be regarded as Mu Yichang's junior brother. However, he is not a disciple of Mu Yichang's master Yongcheng Immortal Lord, but a disciple of other palace lords.
The man's name was Fang Dongyu. Mu Yichang had met him several times, but they didn't have close contact with him.
Most of the time, he would report misfortunes in Fairy City to Shuanghua Sect, writing letters to the head Bai Qingzhu, and then Bai Qingzhu would assign personnel to go down the mountain to deal with them.
Fortunately, in the early years, the head brother had taken her to the City Lord's Mansion once, otherwise under the current situation, it would have been impossible to inquire.
About half an hour later, the three finally found the city lord's mansion.
Mu Yihan crossed her arms in front of her chest and said angrily: "After taking such a long detour, you still have the nerve to say that you know the way?"
Before Mu Yichang could argue, Gu Liushang spoke first, "If it weren't for someone's impulse, we could have asked for directions now!"
"You!!" Mu Yihan was speechless by his rebuke.
Mu Yichang tugged on their sleeves and said helplessly: "Stop arguing, we have found it anyway, eh?"
Gu Liushang and Mu Yihan looked at each other and then looked away.
We really hate each other!
There were two guards standing outside the gate of the city lord's palace. They looked very tall and powerful.
After getting closer, Mu Yichang noticed something was wrong.
The two guards were not mortals, but tiger monsters.
The tiger demon seemed to have used some kind of medicine, and all the demonic aura on his body was restrained. It was difficult for even a monk or demon with cultivation level to detect it, let alone a mortal.
If Mu Yichang hadn't been a highly skilled person, one of the best among demon cultivators, he probably wouldn't have been able to notice it.
"Who is coming?"
The two tiger monsters said these four words in unison.
What's surprising is that not only do they speak in sync, but their voices are exactly the same.
Taking a closer look at the two demons, it seems that even their appearance is similar.
Mu Yichang cupped her hands and said: "Mu Yichang, the master of Shuiyue Palace of Shuanghua Gate, wants to see the city lord. Please report."
The tiger monsters looked at each other, one of them nodded, and the other monster entered the house.
Gu Liushang quietly pulled Mu Yichang's little finger, and Mu Yichang took a few steps back, keeping some distance from the door.
"Master, these two people look a little weird, and there seems to be something wrong with their expressionless faces." Gu Liushang said in a low voice.
Mu Yihan also listened, a little confused, "What's so strange about this?"
Gu Liushang glanced at him sideways and was too lazy to talk nonsense with him. He continued to say to Mu Yichang: "Master, I think this City Lord's Mansion also has a very depressing feeling. Just now I felt very uncomfortable as soon as I approached the door. I can't tell. Why, but…it feels bad.”
Mu Yichang turned her eyes and glanced in the direction of the mansion gate and the tiger demon.
She closed her eyes and pointed her eyelids with two fingers.
In a moment, when he opened his eyes again, a red light flashed in his eyes.
In an instant, the world in Mu Yichang's eyes changed.
This is a spiritual detection technique, which can sense the distribution of spiritual power, demonic power and even evil energy around you.
The strange thing is that there does not seem to be any demonic power in the city lord's mansion, nor is there any spiritual power or demonic energy.
She put away her spells and shook her head, "There is only the distribution of spiritual energy here that is unique to Fairy City, and there is no spiritual power or demonic power of practitioners. It's just that...the two guards are not ordinary people, but tiger monsters. This is It’s strange. He is clearly a demon, but he has no demonic power. If the demonic aura can be eliminated with medicine, the demonic power must be present in the demon cultivator’s body, so it cannot be completely undetectable.”
Mu Yihan was a little confused, "Are those two at the door demons? But I didn't feel it at all!"
Mu Yichang nodded and said: "It seems that it is true as Ah Zhan said, there must be something weird here, we'd better be careful."
Not long after, the city lord Fang Dongyu came out to greet Mu Yichang in person.
Mu Yichang had met this man several times. He was a very polite man with a decent appearance, and he looked like a very decent person.
When Fang Dongyu was still at Shuanghua Sect, he was quite famous.
