Suzie is injured

Mu Yunxuan had been chasing Su Qi's figure, flying through the air. After flying far outside the city, suddenly, a dozen black-clothed figures descended from the sky, filled with murderous intent, and immediately attacked Mu Yunxuan.

Instantly, the glimmers of blades and swords filled the air, each move aimed at taking a life, and the killing intent surged towards Mu Yunxuan's heart!

The sudden appearance of the black-clothed figures caused a faint blue light of anger to flicker in Mu Yunxuan's eyes. In the dark night, it resembled two dazzling sapphires.

Mu Yunxuan's eyes were filled with killing intent, and he almost fatally struck the approaching shadows with a single move.

On a nearby mountain road, Su Qi was being held by a man, his hands locked by mysterious energy, riding on the back of a Northshore Corner Demon Beast.

"Are you fucking stupid? With so many people in Veikou City, you didn't catch anyone, but you specifically came to catch me. Aren't you just looking for death?" Su Qi glanced back, muttering in his mouth, preparing to find an opportunity to escape at any moment. He had always been afraid, thinking it was some kind of monster with three heads and six arms. It turned out to be a person who could use invisibility technique to kidnap him. With his current situation, as long as he found a way to release the mysterious energy binding his hands, he would be able to escape.

"Shut up, you brat! If you keep blabbering, I'll kill you right now." The rough voice of the black-clothed figure carried a stern warning.

Su Qi pouted his small mouth, thinking, "If I don't show my power, do you think I'm just a little kitten? I don't need the Devouring Soul Bell. I can still deal with you."

Su Qi lightly activated his mysterious energy, emitting a fragrant scent from his body.

The black-clothed figure wrinkled his nose when he smelled the fragrance, feeling that something was off. Before he could react, drowsiness overwhelmed him.

"You little brat...," he couldn't finish his sentence before falling from the sky.

The demon beast, seeing its master in trouble, began shaking its body forcefully, disregarding Su Qi's life and attempting to save its master.

"Hiss...!" Su Qi couldn't dodge in time, his hands locked by the mysterious energy, unable to grab onto anything. As the demon beast went berserk, his chest was struck by the sharp horn on the beast's head, accompanied by the sound of flesh being pierced. Su Qi took a sharp intake of breath, damn, it hurt.

The Northshore Corner Demon Beast abruptly flipped its body, extracting its body from the horn. Blood spurted from Su Qi's wound as he fell. The excruciating pain in his chest felt like being burned by fire and enveloped in ice. Fire and ice, the two sensations alternated, corroding Su Qi's body. It was truly fucking painful. That horn of the Northshore Corner Demon Beast was poisonous.

Suffering from piercing pain, Su Qi gritted his teeth. His sweat soaked his clothes repeatedly, and his complexion alternated between pale and bloodless and flushed and red. He felt that this was the most painful experience he had ever had in his life. Damn it, once he returned this time, he would make them taste the consequences of offending him, Su Qi.

"Daddy, please release the mysterious energy on Qi'er's hands first. Qi'er has some pills on him," said Su Qi weakly, leaning softly in Mu Yunxuan's arms.

"Qi'er, Daddy arrived late, and let Qi'er get hurt," Mu Yunxuan said with a guilty expression, looking at his son's pale face.

"Daddy, you don't need to feel guilty. Those people truly wanted to capture me, and they must have sent someone to stop you on the way to save me. It's not your fault for not arriving on time, Daddy. What I'm worried about now is Mother. She won't obediently sit in the tavern waiting for us to return. She will definitely come out to save me," Su Qi reassured his father while leaning weakly in Mu Yunxuan's arms.

Su Qi had always cared deeply for his mother, despite her frequent scolding and complaints about his disobedience and tendency to cause trouble. However, he didn't want his mother to take risks for his sake.

"Qi'er, let Daddy take you back first. If your mother is not here, Daddy will come back for her. We have undercover guards following us, so you don't need to worry," Mu Yunxuan said with concern, gently brushing aside the sweat-drenched hair on Su Qi's forehead. He blamed himself for not arriving sooner, as then Su Qi wouldn't have ended up in this situation.

As Su Qi had suspected, when they returned to the tavern, they didn't find Su Zimo and Su Li.

Seeing Su Qi injured, everyone felt a deep sense of distress.

Su Zimo wiped away her tears as she helped clean Su Qi's body. "Such a young child, and his wounds are so deep. It must be so painful."

"Nian'er, don't be sad. This is a lesson learned. But he's fine now," Sutu Ruoyan consoled, feeling a great deal of sympathy for her grandson. However, in this world, if you don't kill others, they will kill you!

Nalan Wenhao and Mu Yunxuan explained what had happened.

Mu Yunxuan asked them to take care of Su Qi while he had to go out again.

"Your Excellency."

Just as Mu Yunxuan was about to leave, he heard a deep voice behind him.

Mu Yunxuan turned around, his brows furrowed in a handsome face.

"Your Excellency, how about the City Lord accompanies you? I have been trying to catch them for several nights, and tonight, we finally have a lead," said Li Qiao, a man in his late twenties, wearing a black robe. He had a handsome face with determined features and a tall and slender figure, giving off a serious aura.

Mu Yunxuan nodded without saying anything. He then swiftly flew out, with Li Qiao following closely behind him.

Coincidentally, as soon as Mu Yunxuan left, his undercover guard sent him a signal.

Mu Yunxuan glanced at it, his gaze sharpening. The signal came from outside the city. He summoned the Nine-Winged Golden Dragon and rushed towards the location.

"You truly live up to your title as the Holy Lord. Your speed is impressive," Li Qiao, a Saint Xuan Stage expert of the Second Stage, struggled to keep up with Mu Yunxuan.

Su Zimo and Su Li followed Jin Die and arrived at a forest outside the city. Jin Die lost Su Qi's scent here. Su Zimo thought that Mu Yunxuan must have rescued Qi'er because there were traces of battle with demonic beasts. She and Su Li initially wanted to go back, but the four-color brocade on her body emitted a red light inexplicably, making her suspect that the answer she sought was nearby.

She had to personally find the answer hidden in the four-color brocade, and she also wanted to know the secret within it. She had a vague feeling that her master must know something. After returning from Li Xia Kingdom this time, she must visit Mingyue Valley.

Mother and daughter continued to follow the guidance of the four-color brocade.

"Mother, the road ahead is becoming more difficult, and you're injured. Shall we wait until morning before proceeding?" Su Li expressed concern for his mother's injuries and her fear of the dark. However, tonight, his mother surprisingly didn't have a seizure, which puzzled him.

"Li'er, don't worry about me. I've taken a pill, so I'm fine now. Look, the light on the four-color brocade is getting brighter and brighter. Maybe the answer you've been looking for is just ahead," Su Zimo's eyes sparkled with excitement. She couldn't let anything happen to Su Li. Miracles and good luck like meeting Mu Yunxuan were not something everyone could encounter. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, she wouldn't let it slip away.

"Mother, please be careful," Su Li raised the jade bead in his hand, looking up suddenly and seeing a dark figure not far ahead.

Su Li immediately halted his steps, and his delicate face showed a vigilant expression as he stared at the figure. Su Zimo also froze upon seeing the figure, and her heart raced for a few moments. In the middle of the night, she thought she had encountered a ghost.

"Who are you? Scaring people like this on the road in the middle of the night. Aren't you afraid of not having any descendants with such despicable behavior?" Su Zimo couldn't help but scold a few words, although she found it strange. Why would this person appear at this time to stop her? Could it be that they knew what she was looking for? Recently, there had been frequent appearances of members from the Witch Clan, and she wondered if there was a connection between the curse of the Mu family and the Witch Clan. She had pondered over these questions, but she hadn't been able to find any clues.

"Hmph! I advise Madam not to continue forward if you don't want to die," the woman said. Su Zimo cursed her for being wicked and spoke out of line, but her appearance didn't match her words.

As soon as the man spoke, Su Zimo recognized him. "You're from Biquan Town, right?"
