C73 (1/2)

In the cellar of the Princess's Mansion, twelve Night Pearls adorned the walls, making them very bright.

There were dozens of huge wine jars in the cellar, as if it were a wine cellar. However, the contents of the wine jars made it hard to believe that the other jars were purely brewing wine.

Without his hands and feet, without his ears, because of the cotton thread, his eyelids could not be opened. Only his lips were still moving, and only his nose could still breathe.

A woman appeared to be around forty years old, but her hands were wrinkled and dried up, proving that she was no longer a woman. She was old, and the blade in her hand still shone with a cold light under the light of the Night Pearls.

The blade was aimed at a child. He was sobbing unclearly, his eyes were wet, and he was cowering in front of the girl. The girl seemed to have turned a blind eye to the fear of the child.

Man is the product of cruelty.

The woman was cruelly making this kind of product.

Very quickly, the woman fell into a frenzy.

”Bitch, you stole my hands, who do you think you are?”

”You dare to ride on this princess' head with the seed that has smoothly emerged from your stomach?”

”In the end, didn't you, him, your precious son all fall into this princess' hands?”

”Hahaha …”

Outside the ventilation window of the cellar, Mu Hua's eyes were glaring at the scene inside. A violent aura surged from his body, and even his pupils had a tinge of blood. He was about to be unable to hide himself, but someone was covering his eyes from behind.

After an unknown period of time, the cries of the child could be heard. However, the aura of the painting had returned to its calm state.

Taking a deep breath, he said to the person behind him, ”Miss, I... I'm fine now. ”

Lu JinNian released his hand and walked in front of Mu's screen. Seeing that the color of his eyes didn't change, he sighed, ”Can you bear it?”

Mu Painting frowned. ”Miss, I can …”

”No,” Lu JinNian shook his head, ”Not yet.”

The painting was discouraged.

Seeing that he was just discouraged and not slapping him with a knife, Lu JinNian didn't know whether or not he should be happy about this change. He could only pat him and say, ”Let's meet up with Mu Shu first and deal with the hidden guards.”

Mu Shu found them before the two of them went to the rendezvous point. He pulled Mu Painting to make sure that he showed no signs of going crazy before he heaved a sigh of relief. With a cold expression, he asked Lu Jinsheng, ”You know what this place is like, it's purposely for Mu Painting to see it!”

Lu JinNian didn't feel that there was anything wrong with a subordinate speaking to her in such a manner. He said honestly, ”I only roughly know, I don't know for sure.”

Mu Shu's face turned sullen. ”My young mistress has always been scheming something, and the rough outline of the matter is not far from the truth. What if my painting is unable to control it!” His cultivation went berserk once again!

Before Mu Shu could finish his words, Mu Painting could not hear him. Lu JinNian knew what he was going to say, but he had no intention of reflecting on it. He simply stared straight into Mu Painting's eyes.

No matter how dazed Mu Painting was, he could feel that the atmosphere between the two of them wasn't right. With furrowed brows, he stood in front of Lu JinNian decisively. ”Mu Shu, how can you treat the Young Miss like this!”

”Mu Xi and I have been together for six years and we have long been like siblings. He, I, am not as light as him, but I can do things that you can't do, and furthermore, I definitely won't harm Mu Xi.”

The painting could not understand what they were trying to do and said matter-of-factly, ”Of course the Miss won't harm me.” He paused, then continued, ”It doesn't matter even if you harm me. Miss always has her own reasons.”

Mu Shuquan was infuriated, beginning to doubt if Mu Painting staying by Lu Jin Nian's side was a good decision. Lu Jin Nian looked at Mu Painting in amusement before saying, ”Alright, time to get back to business. Mu Shuwen should have already figured out the location of the princess' secret guard, so we can do our best to deal with it without making any sound.”
