Chapter 219: The Traitor 2
Sang Chu and Sang Jing Wen fell silent. Mu Xue looked at them, puzzled, “Are you doubting Brother Yi and Min Feng? But what reason would they have to do that?”
Sang Jing Wen: “Min Feng took his parents away from the meeting room at the time, and A Yi also left.”
Mu Xue was not familiar with the situation at the time. Hearing them say this, she unconsciously fell silent. Although she didn’t believe Brother Yi and Lu Min Feng would do such a thing, she listened to Sang Jing Wen and Sang Chu.
“Xiao Xue, although the inner demon in your body can be controlled, it still needs to be suppressed. I’ll have Tu You take you back to the hovercar first. Have Twin Flowers come out to guard you, and you should rest well for a while.”
Mu Xue looked at Sang Chu and nodded slightly, “Sang Sang, the scene I saw just now should be related to mutated plants. I always feel like something has been overlooked by us.”
“It’s okay, we’ll handle things one by one. You suppress the inner demon first, but don’t overdo it. Too much rigidity leads to breakage. Just go with the flow, treat it like a nap. Just remember, I’m fine, Big Brother, Grandmother, and I are all alive. We are living people.”
“Mhm, I remember. I won’t forget again.” Mu Xue looked at Sang Chu and nodded seriously. Suddenly, she remembered something: “Sang Sang, do you remember when I said I saw you raising zombies on the Magic Continent?”
“What’s wrong?”
Sang Jing Wen: “Do you still see it now?”
Mu Xue shook her head, but said with a face full of confusion: “I always felt that the feeling at the time was very strange, as if someone was psychologically suggesting to me, and a voice kept saying in my brain that Sang Sang was the murderer of those people. That’s why I was so upset. While I didn’t believe Sang Sang did it, I also felt that if Sang Sang killed them, they deserved to die. These two thoughts made me very uncomfortable. Moreover, in my opinion, even if Sang Sang did it, so what? I wouldn’t care. But at that time, I actually wanted to kill Sang Sang to eliminate harm for the people.”
This was a thought she would absolutely never have, but at that time, she genuinely wondered what she would do if Sang Chu had done all this. Should she kill Sang Chu on the Magic Continent to stop her from doing bad things?
Sang Jing Wen: “Xiao Xue?”
“Really, that feeling was very strange. I still feel scared thinking about it now. If Sang Sang hadn’t said she was infected with the zombie virus at the time, and I was afraid Sang Sang would be in trouble, I’m afraid I would have been brainwashed by that voice and actually killed Sang Sang. I don’t know why it was like this, but I don’t think it has anything to do with my inner demon.”
Sang Jing Wen had also noticed the killing intent that occasionally emanated from Mu Xue at the time, which was why he had kept a slight distance from her. Even Xiao Yi Fei had noticed it.
Tu You, let alone, was very sensitive to people’s emotions.
Sang Chu: “Rabbit, you said you were called away by Bai Yu Qi, right?”
“Yes.”
Tu You didn’t understand why the topic had suddenly shifted here, so he could only nod in response to her question.
Sang Jing Wen: “Little Sister, are you suspecting Bai Yu Qi?”
“The person who wants to kill me is either Bai Yu Qi or our neighbor. And the one who can subtly influence Xiao Xue without anyone noticing should be the supernatural ability of mutated plants. Do you remember that big tree in Qing Liu City?”
Mu Xue: “That big tree seemed to be able to influence people’s thoughts too, but, but I haven’t had any contact with the neighbor?”
“But Bai Yu Qi had contact with it. We ruined Bai Yu Qi’s cultivation path. Although we compensated him in other aspects, we can’t guarantee he wouldn’t cooperate with the neighbor. As long as they kill me, they can find ways to possess all the means I have. If I die in the Otherworld, you won’t be able to return either, and everything in the Base will belong to them.”
Sang Jing Wen: “How cruel. If that’s the case, then isn’t the Base very dangerous?”
Sang Chu, however, smiled: “It’s okay. Since he wants to do this, then he can’t blame me.”
Mu Xue looked at Sang Chu’s smile and instantly felt much more at ease, at least confirming who the traitor was: “Sang Sang, I’ll go back to the formation then. That old thing is probably fused with the mutated plants too. If you find him, remember to wake me up. I want to kill him myself again!”
“Okay, release Twin Flowers. Let them guard you to prevent any more accidents.”
Speaking of this, Mu Xue felt a little annoyed: “I should have bought more if I had known. Do you know, I lost so much! I was so tempted when I saw you buying magic beasts, but there was always a voice telling me it was wrong, that I couldn’t do it. I was going crazy!”
Sang Jing Wen was amused by her regretful look and took out the card in his hand: “Then these are for you?”
“Forget it, Brother. You keep them yourself. You still need them. Sang Sang, next time, next time, after I’m better, take me there again. I lost too much!”
“Alright. After your inner demon is suppressed, I’ll have Lin Shao Qing examine your body. I suspect you might have the potent poison of mutated plants in your body, just like me.”
Sang Jing Wen: “Then check me too, just in case.”
“Mhm, we’ll arrange all that later. These mutated plants are insidious.”
Mu Xue: “I’ll be going then. You must be careful.”
“Mhm.”
Although Sang Chu’s hovercar could still be used, it lacked light energy and could only be parked in place. Therefore, Sang Chu left Liao Tian, Yu Fei, and Meng Wei An with her, along with the Twin Flowers sisters she had bought herself. With so many people guarding, at least no one would be able to quietly take someone out of the formation again.
Sang Jing Wen looked at Sang Chu, who had an unhappy expression: “Sang Sang, what do we do now?”
“Brother, I’m afraid we’ll need a large number of magic card slaves and high-level magic beasts. Here, I’ll give you the Hellhound. You help me patrol this area. Directly build the high walls under the cover of night. Brother, it’s better to kill ten by mistake than to let one go.”
This time, Sang Chu did not hide her killing intent from Sang Jing Wen. These mutated plants were too dangerous, and she didn’t know how many people they had controlled, nor how many people were unknowingly being led by them while feeling smug.
All she could do now was to build her own safe haven as much as possible. Within her haven, mutated plants would not dare to come near!
Sang Jing Wen patted Sang Chu’s head: “Okay, Brother understands. You go do what you need to do.”
“Mhm, I’ll go find Qin Si Feng first. Brother, let’s split up.”
“Okay.”
Sang Jing Wen left with the Hellhound. Sang Chu stared menacingly at the location of the mutated big tree: “Rabbit, here are the cards. Go turn Bai Yu Qi into a card slave for me.”
Tu You was stunned for a moment: “He really is?”
“Whether he is or not, deal with the problem first. I don’t want to waste my energy on him. My transaction with the mutated big tree was always facilitated by him. He is the most likely person to have made a move. If you can’t bear to do it, I’ll do it myself.”
“I’ll go. If you go, he might become suspicious. Let’s go!”
