Chapter 57 - Massacre at the Inn (1/2)

Later that evening, the convoy passed by that very inn and decided to rest there for the night.

The carriages were parked in front of the inn and were guarded by two guards. The rest of the guards went into the inn to have dinner.

“Oh, my fellow guests, welcome! Please, come on in.”

A waiter greeted them warmly as soon they stepped into the inn.

“Waiter, get us three jars of good wine and serve us all of your signature dishes.”

The fourth Mu elder said. They had been here many times.

“Alright. Elder Mu, please wait for a while.”

The waiter replied and passed the order to the kitchen. Then, he went downstairs to get three jars of wine from the cellar, secretly adding a packet of powder to the wine before he brought it up.

A sly grin spread across the waiter’s face as he swirled the jars of wine. He then went back upstairs and served the three jars of wine on the table.

The fourth Mu elder and the others immediately poured out the wine.

“Cheers!”

All of them covered their faces and drank up, but they indeed drank the wine.

After drinking, they started to chat.

A wide smile spread across the waiter’s face after he confirmed that they drank the wine.

After a while, dinner was served.

“Eh? What’s going on? I-I feel so dizzy suddenly…”

One of the Zi Fu level Mu disciples suddenly felt dizzy and blacked out instantly.

“Hey, wake up, what’s wrong with you?”

The others were shocked at first, but they also felt dizzy after a while. Soon, all of them blacked out.

“Hahahaha, well done, waiter.”

At this moment, a laugh rang out from upstairs and a group of men dressed in black robes walked down the stairs.

One of them tossed a gold card to the waiter, and the waiter accepted it gratefully.

The group of men in black walked down the stairs and looked at the Mu family members who were passed out on the table. A trace of coldness and disdain flashed across their faces.

“Well, well, well. Look who it is, the Mu family. This is all your fault for protecting somebody who shouldn’t have been protected.”

One of the men dressed in black muttered. With a wave of his hand, he said coldly: “Kill them all.”

The others pulled out their swords and started approaching the Mu family members.

One of the men who held a long knife in his hand struck down at the fourth Mu elder’s neck.

Just as he was about to be beheaded, the fourth Mu elder suddenly opened his eyes and punched towards his attacker’s head.

At the same time, the fourth Mu elder surrounded himself with a gush of yellow-colored Meta-power — it was a Gang Qi Defense Shield.

Clang!

The strike from the sword was bounced back when it hit the shield, and at the same time, the punch landed directly on the attacker’s head.

Bang!

The attacker’s head instantly burst, splattering his cerebrospinal fluid all over the ground.

All of a sudden, the other Mu disciples, who had supposedly blacked out, stood up, grabbed their weapons, and charged at the remaining men in black.

“What the hell?!”

The leader of the men was shocked. He looked around, trying to find the waiter, but the waiter was nowhere to be seen.

The fifth Mu elder looked at the group of men in black and said coldly: “Lord Huang, why don’t you take off your masks?”

Upon hearing his words, the middle-aged man’s heart sank and he said coldly: “Fifth Mu elder, you knew that we planned to ambush you?”

The middle-aged man took off his mask — he was Huang Tai.

“Hmph, do you think we would fall for the same trick twice? Well, it seems that my Lord and Little Lord Feng were right. You were indeed the mastermind behind the robbery last time.”

The fifth Mu elder sneered coldly.

“Hmph, even if you find out that I was the mastermind behind all of this, what difference does it make? There’s only a few of you here, do you really think that you could make it out of here alive?”

Huang Tai said with a cold smile. Among his group of men, there were four Ning Gang level cultivators and 30 Zi Fu level cultivators.
