Mu Jingrui discovered that the person following him was actually a woman.
There was a layer of frost in his eyes, and he asked in a low voice: "Tell me, what do you want to do?"
The woman struggled desperately and beat Mu Jingrui's arm.
Seeing that she couldn't break free, she used her remaining consciousness and strength to stab Mu Jingrui fiercely with the silver needle between her fingers.
Mu Jingrui just dodged lightly, grabbed her pulse, grabbed the silver needle, and pushed her heavily to the ground.
The woman breathed violently, raised her head and glared at Mu Jingrui fiercely, full of malice and resentment.
"Mu Jingrui, you are ungrateful and will not die well."
Mu Jingrui frowned slightly.
He has never claimed to be a gentleman, but he is also not a villain who refuses to repay kindness.
"I never owe anyone anything."
After saying that, Mu Jingrui turned around and left.
"You never owe anyone, what about...the hall master?"
The woman's voice came from behind, no longer as sharp and tough as before, but with a bit of sadness and sadness.
"Mu Jingrui, you said that you never owe anyone anything, then do you still remember Chu Xiaolian, the master of the Soul Capturing Hall who sacrificed his life to save you?"
Some bad memories came to mind, and Mu Jingrui's frown deepened.
"Do you think...you can escape from the Hall of Souls because your useless men saved you? Not at all. If the hall master hadn't rescued you from the water prison, you would have died in Jiang Yi's hands. Poor hall master for
Save you... and you were ruined by that bastard Jiang Yi..."
Mu Jingrui felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart, and he turned to look at the woman.
"The hall master... after she was captured, she would rather die than reveal your whereabouts. Jiang Yi tried every means to torture her. She... was about to die..."
The woman struggled to get up and knelt in front of Mu Jingrui.
"Master Mu, please go and save the hall master. No one in this world can save her except you. Please..."
As the woman spoke, she kowtowed to Mu Jingrui and burst into tears.
Mu Jingrui couldn't help but think of the night the two were alone together after Chu Xiaolian took him out of the water prison.
When he woke up, he saw that Chu Xiaolian seemed to want to kiss him...
In an instant, Mu Jingrui was in a state of confusion.
"Mr. Mu, if you don't save the hall master, the hall master won't be able to survive. She will really die."
"Why should I trust you?"
Mu Jingrui's attitude was cold, with a chill everywhere.
The woman opened her mouth, as if she wanted to explain, but in the end, she said nothing and sat on the ground dejectedly.
The Hall of Souls is a killer organization, and it has attacked him more than once.
He had to guard against it.
Mu Jingrui turned around again and was about to leave, when he suddenly heard a strange noise coming from behind him.
When he looked back, the woman plunged a dagger into his abdomen.
"you……"
"Master Mu, there is no way I can convince you to believe me... I will use my life... I beg you, save the hall leader... She really wants to... see you again..."
After the woman finished speaking, she fell into a pool of blood.
Mu Jingrui's heart was touched.
He immediately called his men to take the woman away and cleaned up the scene before Shangguan Wan Ning found out.
Mu Jingrui immediately sent out his subordinates to investigate the Hall of Souls. Within two or three days, news came back one after another.
According to rumors in the world, the leader of the Hall of Souls has been replaced. As for where the original leader has gone and why he wanted to return the leader, there is no way to find out.
"Have you found out where the main altar of the Soul Resurrection Hall is?"
"Found it."
The subordinate spread out a map and displayed it in front of Mu Jingrui, pointed to a place on the ground and said, "This is it."
This is an inconspicuous town, but it is a prosperous and prosperous place where merchants come from north to south.
Mu Jingrui thought about it again and again and decided to take a look.
He owes nothing to anyone, especially not to women.
"Is there any official business that you must go to in person?" Shangguan Wanning felt vaguely uneasy when she learned that Mu Jingrui was going on a long trip.
"It's a last resort, don't worry, I'll be back as soon as possible."
Mu Jingrui caressed Shangguan Wan Ning's face. He was already reluctant to let go. "I promise that our wedding date will not be delayed."
"Then...will you not be able to come back in time for the opening of Deshan Hall?"
Shangguan Wan Ning changed the name of Jiyuan Hall to Deshan Hall and it will be reopened in three days.
"Yes, I'm sorry."
"It doesn't matter, the most important thing is that you come back safely."
Mu Jingrui pinched Shangguan Wan Ning's nose lovingly and took her into his arms.
The next day, Mu Jingrui asked for leave from the court and rushed to the main altar of the Soul Concubine Hall with a few of his confidants.
He pretended to be his employer and wanted to hire the killers from the Hall of Souls to perform a mission.
Since his bid was very high, he asked to see the new master of the Hall of Souls by name.
The night was slightly cool and the moon was bright in the sky. Mu Jingrui and his men came to the woods outside the town as promised.
They waited for about a stick of incense, and their men could no longer hold back.
"Sir, could it be that the people from the Hall of Souls regretted not coming at the moment?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of unknown birds jumped out of the grass in front of them. As if they were frightened by something, they fluttered their wings and fled in panic.
A sharp light flashed across Mu Jingrui's eyes, and he jumped up and flew towards the grass. A black figure was about to escape, but he grabbed it by the neck, pulled it out, and threw it heavily to the ground.
The man was wearing the mask of Soul Resurrection Hall. The moment he was thrown to the ground, he felt severe pain all over his body, and his internal organs seemed to be mixed together.
"Tell me, are you the hall master?"
Mu Jingrui's men pulled out their swords and put them on the killer's neck.
The killer was never afraid of death. Without saying a word, he leaned forward and the sword penetrated his throat.
At this time, Mu Jingrui heard the sound of soft footsteps approaching from all directions.
He pulled out his long sword and waved it gently, and several sword flowers flew towards the darkness.
Screams came one after another, and the two sides soon fought together.
Mu Jingrui looked around vigilantly. Suddenly, a huge black shadow came towards their direction, like a huge bat.
"Hahaha! Mu Jingrui, I asked you to run away last time, but this time you actually took the initiative to deliver it to my door."
Jiang Yi landed firmly in front of Mu Jingrui and looked at him contemptuously.
"I should settle the score with you."
Mu Jingrui's voice was very soft, but filled with murderous majesty. "Who hired you to kill me at that time?"
"Are you asking now? Huh, as long as you can break this Tiangang Yuanqi Formation, I will tell you."
Jiang Yi waved his arm lightly, and the killers who followed quickly formed their formation.
Waves of strong sword energy hit his face, like a bone-cutting steel knife slicing through his skin.
The four men who came with Mu Jingrui soon died in the sword formation.
Mu Jingrui fought fiercely with them, and the layers of sword energy made him breathless, and for a while he was unable to win.
