Even without the report from Deacon Wei, Mo Wuji could already feel his spiritual will imprint approaching rapidly.
When Han Qingru heard these words, her face changed drastically. She immediately stood up and subconsciously muttered to herself, ”Didn’t I send him to Yong Ying Immortal Pier?”
She soon came to an understanding that now was not a time to be worried about such matters. She urgently turned to Ding Ding, ”Ding Ding, bring Dao Friend Mo upstairs to hide. Hurry.”
”Ah…” Ding Ding stuttered in astonishment. Before she could say anything, Han Qingru nudged her, ”Hurry.”
”Dao Friend Mo, I have to trouble you to hide for awhile. We will continue our talk later. I’m truly sorry,” Han QIngru apologized to Mo Wuji; anxiety could be seen in her eyes.
”No worries.” Mo Wuji smiled and followed Ding Ding upstairs.
He felt that this matter was not as simple as it seems. Even if this Manager He really wanted to control the Hundred Flowers Sect, he didn’t believe that Han Qingru would behave so anxiously in front of him. This Manager He was merely a Heavenly Immortal, but it’s still unknown whether he had already condensed his immortal lattice.
Because he felt that this matter wasn’t simple, Mo Wuji didn’t say anything much, but took the initiative to follow Ding Ding.
Just when Mo Wuji reached upstairs, Manager He walked in. He didn’t even pay any greetings as he entered. When he saw that Han Qingru was the only person in the room, he hurriedly gave a modest bow, ”Shufeng greets the manor lord.”
Han Qingru said indifferently, ”Manager He, you’re back from Yong Ying Immortal Pier?”
Manager He hurriedly said, ”Just when I left, I remembered that there was something that I had left undone. Thus, I hurried back here. At the same time, I wanted to tell the manor lord that I will be running the errand at Yong Ying Immortal Pier tomorrow.”
Han Qingru nodded, ”Since that’s the case, you can leave first.”
”Yes.” When Manager He left, his gaze landed on the teacup that Mo Wuji just drank from. A trace of malice flashed across his eyes.
After Manager He left, Han Qingru hurried upstairs.
…
Manager He walked quickly back to his house. Not long later, a grey robed servant walked in and asked, ”Manager, why didn't you drag that fella out?”
”Did you see him leave?” Manager He asked with a solemn expression.
The grey robed servant hurriedly said, ”No, I'm sure that Mo Wuji did not leave. The moment he entered, I sent you a message. Thereafter, I have always been observing from the outside. However, when you returned, that old b*stard, Wei Wu, reported it.”
Manager He nodded, ”I understand. He Tun, go back and keep watch outside of the manor lord's residences. The moment that Mo Wuji comes out, inform me immediately. I originally wanted to let him live for a few more days, but that fella is clearly looking for death, to think that he would dare enter the manor lord's room.”
”Should we inform the master?” When the grey robed servant heard those words, he hurriedly whispered.
Manager He snorted, ”You may not care about your life, but I do. Idiot, that Mo Wuji didn't leave, and my spiritual will was unable to find him. Clearly, he was hidden in the manor lord's room. We will wait till we kill that fella, then tell the master that this fella wanted to get close to the manor lord, which was why we killed him. Not only wouldn't we get in trouble, we would even be rewarded.”
The grey robed servant instantly understood. They definitely couldn't inform the master now. The master had instructed them to keep watch on the manor lord. If the master were to know that a man had entered the manor lord's room, that Mo Wuji would definitely die. They would also get into trouble.
At this moment, a red light descended on Manager He's hand. It was a flying messenger sword.
Manager He grabbed the flying messenger sword; his face changed drastically, even his legs were quivering slightly as he said, ”Master already knows that a man has entered the manor lord's room…”
”Ah…” Not just Manager He, even He Tun’s face turned pale.
”This b*stard, I knew I should have gotten rid of home a long time ago.” With that, Manager He charged out. He knew that he wouldn't be out of trouble if he were to kill Mo Wuji now, but if he didn't kill Mo Wuji, he would be the one who would be killed.
…
The moment Mo Wuji entered a room, he knew that it was Han Qingru’s boudoir. A faint fragrance filled the air, causing Mo Wuji's mind to wander. At this instant, he seemed to recall something from the past.
Shaking his head, he cast these unnecessary thoughts to the side. His spirit storage channel's spiritual will had already extended outwards; he wanted to know the exact role that Manager He played within Hundred Flowers Manor.
A faint outline of a flying sword flashed by the boundaries of Mo Wuji's spiritual will. This was a flying messenger sword? What left Mo Wuji doubtful was, the person who sent the flying messenger sword was the person who was by the manor lord's side, Ding Ding.
Moreover, Mo Wuji was sure that Ding Ding did not inform Han Qingru before sending the flying messenger sword. Not only that, she had sent the sword out while she was hiding in a corner.
Just when Mo Wuji was suspecting who Ding Ding was sending this flying messenger sword to, the restrictions on the room opened, and Han Qingru walked in. ”Sorry, Drug Master Mo. I have implicated you.”
”No worries, was that Manager He? At the most, I would just leave from this place, I’ve not been implicated,” Mo Wuji said calmly.
