Chapter 159: Magic Continent Fear
“I, I understand.”
Mu Xue lowered her head, her eyes slightly red. Sang Jing Wen gently stroked her long hair by her side, and Lu Min Feng also fell silent.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Xiao Yi Fei also shut his mouth and sat on the head of the Flying Eagle. He looked at the map on the optical computer, searched for a long time for the Corpse Spirit that Sang Chu mentioned, but did not see any trace of it nearby.
Finally, he couldn’t help but break the stifling atmosphere: “The map doesn’t mark the location of the Corpse Spirit, how are we going to find it?”
Sang Jing Wen glanced at his optical computer and opened the map. It marked many nests and even monster gathering points, but indeed, there was no Corpse Spirit.
Lu Min Feng: “I noticed this before and didn’t have time to say it. The Cold Attack in the wilderness is terrifying. After every Cold Attack, there are many monster corpses on the road, and many are frozen to death in those nests. So, my plan is this: after we arrive at the Mole Rat Nest, we will hide inside first. Everyone can cultivate during this time. When the Cold Attack comes, we will go out in the hovercar. We will scavenge for bargains before they fully recover.”
Sang Jing Wen: “That’s good. Let’s split into two groups then. A Yi and I will go to a farther place. Min Feng, you take Mu Xue to search near the Mole Rat Nest. Safety is the top priority. If you are discovered, you must return to the Mole Rat Nest before the Cold Attack ends to avoid the monsters discovering the hovercar and causing unnecessary trouble.”
Lu Min Feng: “Okay, let’s do that. We’re almost there, let’s go down.”
Mu Xue still looked listless, but she wasn’t hindering them for the moment. Sang Jing Wen no longer paid attention to her.
Many things need to be figured out by oneself. Talking too much from others can only be counterproductive.
After Xiao Yi Fei and Sang Jing Wen entered the Mole Rat Nest, they took their Crystal Cores and Spirit Stone Jade and went to meditate and cultivate. Lu Min Feng glanced at Lin Mu Xue, who was lost in thought, and didn’t say much. He just handed her a Crystal Core and then walked to the side.
Only Mu Xue sat there blankly, watching them cultivate, and couldn’t help but think of what she had seen in the cultivation room.
When she was cultivating her Mental Power in that Formation, she saw Sang Chu raising zombies in the Base, using the corpses of dead Spirit Birds from the Base for now. She wasn’t scared at the time, just thinking that Sang Chu must have her reasons for doing so.
But she didn’t expect that after Sang Chu returned from the Magic World, she brought all the ordinary people from Qing Liu City back to the Base, and from then on, people would disappear from the Base every day.
She didn’t know why this was happening, but she had a small guess in her heart. However, she thought Sang Chu wouldn’t do this. No matter what happened, Sang Chu was a friend she grew up with, a sister, a relative. She thought she knew Sang Chu very well.
But Yun Na’s matter made her fall into deep thought again. Did she really know Sang Chu?
Would the people who disappeared from the Base be used by her to raise zombies?
Also, what role did Lu Min Feng play in all of this?
She didn’t know, and she didn’t even dare to say these things. These were just fragmented pieces she saw during her cultivation. She didn’t know if they were true or false. She wanted to believe Sang Chu, but her brain told her that all of this was true, and even things that would happen in the future.
Mu Xue curled up in a corner fearfully. Seeing her like this, Lu Min Feng couldn’t help but walk over and hug her: “Did something happen that scared you?”
Everyone didn’t know Mu Xue’s Supernatural Ability very well, but he knew that Mu Xue wouldn’t easily doubt Sang Chu like this. Something must have happened, but she just didn’t dare to say it.
She hesitated for a long time, not knowing how to say it. Her mind was completely unable to think. She needed someone to give her an answer.
“If, if one day you find out that I’m different from who you know, what will you do?”
Lu Min Feng’s voice was gentle as he spoke into her ear: “Everyone has many faces. Even if you are different from who I know, it doesn’t matter. Knowing that you are you is enough for me. No one is unchanging, but you must believe that I will always be on your side. This will not change.”
Mu Xue’s clenched hand slowly opened. She carefully clutched the clothes behind Lu Min Feng, lowered her head, and pressed it against his chest, her voice trembling slightly as she said, “I understand.”
“Don’t put such a heavy moral burden on yourself, it will be very tiring and difficult.”
“Mhm.”
Mu Xue responded softly. Lu Min Feng just held her with concern, but said nothing more.
Witch Hospital Laboratory
“Dean, can we really trust Sang Chu?”
Facing the subordinate’s question, Wu Qi just smiled coldly, like a venomous snake lurking and preparing to hunt, making people afraid: “It doesn’t matter, as long as the person is kept in the hospital. What did Liu Sang say? Are those people really dead?”
“Currently, it seems so. However, Sang Chu previously purchased a large number of Magic Rings from Madam Mino’s shop. It’s hard to say if these people are a smokescreen they created.”
The corpses had been collected and restoration potions were used to restore their appearance, but everyone didn’t quite believe that it was the group from Rose City.
Wu Qi: “It doesn’t matter. Since Sang Chu said she doesn’t like these people, then send these people’s corpses to her. Consider it a grand gift for her joining the hospital.”
Looking at Wu Qi’s sinister smile, Meng Lin lowered his head and said: “Yes, Dean, I’ll do it now.”
“Mhm, also, have people strengthen the defenses around the area. Sang Chu cannot leave the Witch Hospital even a step. She wants to join, doesn’t she? Then let her join. You give the order, no matter what she wants to see, let her see it. There’s only one condition: tell her she cannot leave.”
“Yes, your subordinate will do it now.”
After Meng Lin left, Mino walked out from the shadows. Wu Qi looked at her: “Why are you here? You’ve always disliked my laboratory, haven’t you?”
Mino’s delicate and elegant face showed a hint of anger: “This is imprisonment!”
“She came to me herself, what does it have to do with me? Besides, didn’t you ask her to come find me?”
Mino was speechless for a moment. She asked Sang Chu to find Wu Qi because she felt that Sang Chu, alone with this group of naive young ladies and masters, couldn’t survive in Flower Town. But she had value and Wu Qi’s protection. As long as she didn’t act out, living a stable life wouldn’t be a problem.
But she didn’t expect that she would misjudge someone one day!
She thought that Sang Chu, who brought a Mermaid in for medical treatment, was at least a good person!
But she didn’t expect, didn’t expect that she was also a person with ambition!
“You’re right, I asked her to come find you, so I want to take her away!”
