Chapter 243: Lady Hu

After listening to the village chief’s story, Mu Yucheng fell into deep thought. After a moment of silence, he looked at the village chief and asked, "Why don’t you agree to use the blood of the fox demons to restore the soil?"

The village chief smiled at Mu Yucheng and said, "That is because fox demons have protected our village for more than two thousand years. Without their protection, we would not be where we are today. Unfortunately, not all people know how to be grateful and are blind by greed.

After finishing speaking, the village chief shook his head again and sighed in disappointment.

Mu Yucheng looked at the villagers and the village chief, and then said, "Thank you for answering my question. I will take my leave first."

Before the village chief and the villagers could react, Mu Yucheng had disappeared from there. Everyone was surprised and searched for Mu Yucheng for a while, but they didn’t even see his shadow. The old man exchanged a glance with his wife, and then took a few steps towards the village chief.

He looked at the village chief and politely asked, "Village chief, should we tell Lady Hu about him?"

The village chief thought for a while, turned to look at his grandson, and said, "A Niu, go tell the fox demons about that Young Master Mu."

A boy nodded to the village chief and said, "Yes. Grandpa, I will go immediately."

"Go and come back quickly." The village chief said calmly.

After A Niu went to find the fox demons, the village chief looked at the villagers and said, "Go back and do what you should do."

The villagers looked at each other for a while, and said in unison: "Yes, Village Chief."

The villagers then dispersed and went to work, while the village chief stood there, looking at the sky from the hole. He sighed and muttered: "It seems that something big will happen in the near future."

After Mu Yucheng left the Shi Wu village, he went to find the innkeeper. Now that he found out that the humans who lived here were willing, there was no need for him to interfere with their lives. But the innkeeper’s matter still needs to be clarified.

In the process of looking for the innkeeper, he saw Xiao Shao was fighting with the innkeeper. Mu Yucheng was quite surprised to see that Xiao Shao could fight on par with a fox demon at the Nascent Soul Realm. He landed lightly on the roof of a pavilion not far from them, calmly watching their fight.

As soon as Mu Yucheng landed on the roof of the pavilion, Xiao Shao and Hu Meiniang noticed him, but they were too busy to care about him. At this moment, Hu Meiniang felt that her intestines had turned green from regret.

If she knew that this mortal was not so easy to mess with, even if someone gave her a dragon’s courage, she would not plot against him because she covets his body and his handsome face. Beauty is indeed a source of trouble!

Just when Hu Meiniang was distracted, Xiao Shao’s flickered coldly and he aimed his sword at her neck. In a split second, Xiao Shao’s sword energy rushed towards Hu Meiniang at an extremely fast speed. Since it was too late for her to dodge, Hu Meiniang was forced to unsealed her real power. Otherwise, when the sword energy hits her, she will lose at least half of her life.

When making hand seals, she scolded Xiao Shao for being ruthless countless times in her heart. In an instant, seven tails came out from her coccyx, and a barrier appeared then wrapped her body like a cocoon.

Bang!

Xiao Shao’s sword energy collided with the barrier, creating a huge explosion, destroying half of the cave and the buildings. Standing on the roof of the pavilion, Mu Yucheng waved his hand, and an invisible barrier appeared in front of him, blocking stone debris and dust.

When the dust settled, Xiao Shao’s sword was already on Hu Meiniang’s neck. Seeing that the battle was settled, Mu Yucheng came down from the roof and landed not far from them. Seeing him approaching, Hu Meiniang panicked.

If it is already difficult for her to win against Xiao Shao, then it is impossible for her to win against Mu Yucheng. Hu Meiniang looked at the two handsome men in front of her calmly, trying to conceal the fear hidden in her eyes.

Xiao Shao glanced at Mu Yucheng and said, "Young Master Mu came very late."

Mu Yucheng nodded, but his eyes still stayed on Hu Meiniang. After a few seconds of silence, Mu Yucheng said, "I am investigating this place and found an underground village under this cave. The village chief also told me an interesting story."

Hearing what he said, Xiao Shao raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Oh? What kind of story? Why don’t Young Master Mu share it with me so that I can broaden my horizons."

"It’s about a fox demon who saved the villagers’ lives from some villains." Mu Yucheng said while observing Hu Meiniang’s reaction.

As he expected, when he mentioned the villagers and Shi Wu Village, Hu Meiniang’s expression changed slightly. Judging from Hu Meiniang’s reaction, Mu Yucheng has already confirmed that she is Lady Hu.

After getting the answer he wanted, he turned his head to look at Xiao Shao and asked, "Young Master Xiao, what are you going to do to this fox demon?"

Hearing Mu Yucheng’s question, Xiao Shao sneered. Xiao Shao looked at Hu Meiniang with eyes full of disgust, and coldly said, "I won’t let her die easily, because she must pay for everything she did to me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Yucheng and Hu Meiniang felt the murderous aura gushing out of him like a tsunami. Seeing Xiao Shao’s cold expression, Mu Yucheng curiously glanced at Hu Meiniang, and wanted to know what she did to Xiao Shao, which made him want to skin her alive.
