Unparalleled Evildoer

Chapter 305: Meeting a Girl
Yunchu said, "This soup has the effect of refreshing the spirit, nourishing the qi, replenishing the blood and strengthening the body. Even if Master is fine, he should drink it. This is the medicinal material that Yunchu spent a lot of time and effort to get from the disciples of Huangshan."

"How can something given by others be a good thing!" Qin Moyao said contemptuously as she walked into the room. An Emei disciple followed behind her, brought an exquisite box, placed it on the table, and then walked out.

Qin Moyao opened the box, which contained a bright red pill. She came to Wuzhan, took out the pill with her jade fingers, and placed it on Wuzhan's lips. She smiled and said, "This is my Emei Ice Heart Pill. Its effect is incomparable to that worthless medicine. It tastes great and warms the mind and heart. Open your mouth, Moyao will feed you, sir."

Yunchu said angrily, "You must have bad intentions. Master must not take it. It might be poison." What she didn't expect was that Wuzhan opened his mouth and ate it before she finished speaking. He chewed it and nodded, saying, "It tastes really good, refreshing and fragrant."

Yunchu was so angry that she sent the medicine to Zhulang and said, "Drink it! Otherwise, don't eat!"

Zhulang had to eat, so he drank it in one gulp.

Yunchu asked, "How does it taste?"

Zhulang recalled: "It has a bit of earthy smell, a bit astringent, and..."

"And you don't have to eat dinner!" After saying that, Yun Chu left angrily.

Zhulang followed him out with a somewhat innocent look, leaving only Wuzhan and the smug Qin Moyao in the room.

"Tell me, Master Qin, what else do you want from me?" Wuzhan said calmly.

"Why are you always like this to me? Can't you say something emotional to me?"

"I can't and I won't."

Qin Moyao sat at the head of the bed and sighed, "There are only eight people left now. Zhulang will meet Mu Lingxue from the ancient tomb, and one of Danpu and Bai Haotian. It goes without saying that Mu Lingxue is from the Nitian Sect, and Bai Haotian is your senior brother. You must have thought of the friendship between you and Zhulang and asked him not to fight."

Wuzhan got off the bed, stood up and asked, "What do you want?"

Qin Moyao said: "Since he is your senior brother, you should give way to him."

Wuzhan said: "You think that you can definitely beat Bai Haotian with your cultivation, so you win fair and square, and push the criticism to Bai Haotian. Bai Haotian will be surprised to win Zhulang, and he can't say anything. The current Sect Leader Qin really makes me look at him with new eyes."

Qin Moyao smiled sweetly and said, "I have always been like this, but no matter how I calculate, I still can't escape your eyes."

Wuzhan took out the Fire Feather and asked, "When can you tell me her whereabouts?"

Qin Moyao's expression changed from joy to anger. "If I told you now, why would you stay here? You would have been eager to see her. I don't understand, how is she better than me?"

Wuzhan did not answer but asked: "Then let me ask you, what is it about me that makes you like me? Why do you keep picking on me?"

Qin Moyao was speechless. She really didn't know why she liked Wuzhan. She restrained herself at first sight, felt sad for him, obsessed with him, heartbroken for him, heartless for him, and crazy for him. She never thought about why she liked him. The road a person walks is too long, and sometimes she forgets why she persisted along the way. "Is it really like he said that he likes my stubbornness and my obsession?" After a long time, he said, "Do I need a reason to like someone? Meeting was accidental, but it left a mark that I will never forget."

Wuzhan said: "Do you need a reason to dislike someone?"

Qin Moyao glared at Wuzhan and said angrily: "You are so heartless!"

"You are right. I am just that kind of person. I am not worthy of the favor of Sect Leader Qin."

Qin Moyao didn't want to continue talking because he was talking to a cold person and he couldn't win the argument.

When Qin Moyao walked out of the door, Yun Chu happened to come in. The two looked at each other like enemies and smiled contemptuously at each other.

Yunchu said to Wuzhan: "Mu Lingxue from the ancient tomb is here to look for Zhulang."

Wuzhan asked, "Did Zhulang go?"

"Mu Lingxue said she knows clues about the murderer and wants to take Zhulang to check it out."

……

In the afterglow of the setting sun, in the northern canyon of Huangshan, Mu Lingxue, dressed in black, floated down on an ancient pine tree. Her sleeves fluttered slightly, looking quiet and beautiful. Zhulang, also dressed in black, also floated down and asked in a low voice, "Master Mu, where are you taking me?"

Mu Lingxue chuckled and said, "You are a grown man, are you afraid of being kidnapped by a weak woman like me?"

Zhulang didn't say anything. He had followed Mu Lingxue over five mountains in a row. They had walked a long way from the house on Yuping Peak before arriving at this canyon. Along the way, Mu Lingxue never told him what they were there to see.

Seeing that Zhulang didn't say anything, Mu Lingxue leaped up and landed silently on the stone wall in the valley like a butterfly. She leaned over to look into the valley, and Zhulang had no choice but to follow her behind.

Zhu Lang said: "If Sect Master Mu doesn't say anything, then I will have no choice but to go back."

Mu Lingxue turned around, looked at Zhulang with her beautiful eyes and said, "Are you so impatient?"

"This is not a question of patience. It is not advisable to leave for too long without the master's permission."

"Is your master so important to you that everything needs his permission?"

"You shouldn't ask me this."

Mu Lingxue said, "I really don't understand you. Your sword skills are unmatched among these young people, even surpassing Ping Qingjue back then. Why would you lower your status and follow Mr. Li, who is younger than you?"

Zhu Lang said in a deep voice: "If Sect Master Mu came here just to say these words to me, then I can only say goodbye."

Mu Lingxue smiled and said, "I'm just asking out of curiosity. You don't have to be angry. Don't you want to know who killed the Songshan disciples?"

Zhulang didn't say anything and didn't leave.

Mu Lingxue turned around and walked quietly into the valley along the stone wall. It was already dark, so Zhulang had no choice but to follow behind. There was a large cemetery in the valley, and a group of stone tablets could be seen from afar. It must be the burial place of Huangshan disciples from all generations.

Mu Lingxue hid behind a huge rock and waved for Zhulang to come over. After Zhulang passed by, she whispered, "The murderer is likely hiding in there. Let's not alarm him first. When he comes out, we will find a chance to capture him."

Zhu Lang asked: "How do you know the murderer is hiding here?"

"Don't forget, I'm the leader of the Ancient Tomb Sect." She said this in a very soft and thin voice, and in the dim cemetery, there was indeed a cool breeze blowing through Zhulang's pores.

However, the coolness was soon dispelled by the faint body fragrance. Mu Lingxue's soft hair gently touched his face, making Zhulang realize that there was a person in front of him, a woman.

He didn't know how long it had passed, but there was still no movement from the direction of the cemetery. Wuzhan suspected that Mu Lingxue was lying to him, tricking him into visiting the cemetery at night.

Just as Zhulang was about to leave, Mu Lingxue suddenly screamed "Ah..." and hid her whole body in Zhulang's arms. She pointed at the big green caterpillar hanging from the leaf in front of her and said in fear, "Insect!"

The moonlight was like a veil, warm and fragrant. When the veil slipped off, Zhulang was also frightened because he saw a beautiful face and a pair of delicate and expressive eyes. Zhulang knew that this woman was definitely not so timid. How could a woman who was not afraid of even a corpse be afraid of a caterpillar? But those eyes were indeed afraid and shy, and it was definitely not fake.

Zhu Lang wanted to push her away, but found that she was hugged very tightly. Mu Lingxue raised her face, looked affectionate, and asked with a sweet breath: "Am I beautiful?"

Zhulang had never experienced this before, and he didn't know how to answer. He was a man of few words, and at this moment he couldn't say anything. He pushed with one hand, and Zhulang quickly retracted his hand, his face flushed. He turned away and said coldly, "Stay away from me!"

Mu Lingxue let go of her hand, covered her chest and said angrily: "You took advantage of me, and you won't apologize?"

Zhu Lang said: "I didn't mean to offend you, I hope Sect Master Mu won't blame me!"

Mu Lingxue said in a cold voice: "We have strict rules in our ancient tomb. If a man sees your appearance, you must either marry him or kill him."

Zhu Lang said: "This is your sect rule, not mine. If you want to kill me, I'm afraid you can't!"

Mu Lingxue said, "You are so stubborn. Of course I can't kill you, so..." She raised her neck and said softly, "Kill me."

"Why should I kill you?"

"You have to marry me if you don't kill me!"

"Hmph, what kind of logic is this!" Zhulang really regretted coming here with this woman.

Mu Lingxue said, "I know you can't bear to kill me." Suddenly she laughed and said, "I was lying to you, but you took it seriously. You really thought I was willing to marry you? You wish!"

Zhulang really couldn't figure out which words this woman said were true, and she changed her mind so quickly.

After a while, Mu Lingxue said, "We're making such a big noise here. If he was inside, he would have run away long ago. Let's go in and take a look." After saying that, she walked towards the cemetery.

The cemetery is often cleaned, so there are not many weeds. The tombstones are arranged neatly and have names engraved on them. The tombs of successive masters are all very large, and their tombstones are taller than those of other disciples. Against the backdrop of the night, the entire cemetery exudes a chilly atmosphere.

Zhulang looked around but didn't find any clues, let alone any trace of the murderer.

Mu Lingxue asked in confusion: "That's strange. I saw him coming here last night. Why didn't he come tonight?"

Zhulang asked, "What are you doing here at night?"

Mu Lingxue said: "Is there any need to ask? The yin energy in the cemetery is the heaviest at night, so of course I am here to absorb it and practice. What a stubborn person!"

Zhulang didn't want to think about that scene, so he asked, "Did you see that person clearly?"

"It was so dark at night, and the man was wearing a mask, so how could I see clearly? Besides, he was holding a sword, and his cultivation was unfathomable. If I were discovered, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to see me."

"What is he doing here?"

Mu Lingxue pointed at the tombstone in front of them and said, "He stood in front of this tombstone for a long time, laughing, crying, and mumbling. I couldn't hear what he was saying. At first I thought he was a lunatic who came here to talk to ghosts."

Zhulang looked at the tombstone, which was the tombstone of Lingsong, the previous head of Huangshan. He thought that this might really be an important clue, and he needed to go back and report to his master.

Zhulang said: "Thank you, Master Mu, goodbye!" and turned to leave.

Mu Lingxue shouted, "You are such a heartless person. I have traveled across mountains and rivers to bring you here. It's so late and you leave me alone in this gloomy place."

Zhulang asked, "Aren't you going to practice here?"

Mu Lingxue almost fainted from anger, and angrily said: "Who wants to practice here? Aren't you afraid that person will come back and kill me? You really have the heart to do that!"

"what do you want?"

Mu Lingxue jumped in front of him and said with a smile: "Of course you will escort me and send me back safely. I still have to compete with the stubborn guy tomorrow!"

Zhulang just remembered at this moment that he was going to compete with this woman tomorrow, and thought that she would make some demands, or even ask him to withdraw.

But Mu Lingxue didn't make any requests, which might be her brilliance.

Zhulang walked in front, and Mu Lingxue followed slowly behind him, intentionally or unintentionally. If they continued walking like this, they might not be able to return to their residence until midnight.

Zhulang turned back several times to wait for her, urged her several times, wanted to abandon her several times, but gave up the idea several times.
