The villain and I have eight hundred minds combined

She thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure out the reason, so she continued to listen to them talking.

"The compass usually shows correct information, so Zhai Tian thought that the people wandering on the street were all ghosts, and he killed one of them on impulse. Unexpectedly, the man screamed, and fell to the ground with blood all over his body and died. Like an ordinary person, the body slowly stiffened... and then he died." Lin Yifeng added.

Lu Yusheng's face turned pale, and he continued, "The master was furious and scolded Zhai Tian for killing ordinary people at will. He violated the rules of cultivators and destroyed his Tao heart, so he punished him to reflect on his mistakes alone in an abandoned house in the city."

This is the rule of Wenxin Sect. The punished disciple needs to be locked up in a small dark room and reflect on his mistakes facing the wall for a few days.

Of course, a serious matter like murder could not be as simple as just reflecting on one's mistakes. It was probably because Cui Ren took the instructions of the compass into consideration that he allowed the disciple named Zhai Tian to accidentally kill someone, and therefore the punishment was so light.

"Then...we couldn't find any clues in the city, and we couldn't get out of the city. We didn't dare to kill people on the street, and we didn't find any ghosts. Master thought it was better not to disperse at this time, so he went to the abandoned house to look for Zhai Tian. Who, who knows..." Lu Yusheng's voice trembled with fear when he recalled this.

"What happened?" Mu Hanxing was impatient and asked with a frown.

Lin Yifeng seemed a little calmer, perhaps because he had long been numb to the fear here. He continued, "When we arrived, Zhai Tian was dead, his limbs were chopped off, and the whole room was covered in his blood. His eyes were open, his mouth was open, and his death was particularly miserable."

Mu Hanxing's eyes trembled, and even the usually calm Jingchen frowned. Feng Xiao felt a chill all over his body. When he came here before, he had never seen a corpse with chopped off limbs. If he had known earlier, he would have stayed longer and investigated more.

"Even the master was scared to death, but he recited a lot of mantras but failed to lure out the evil spirit that killed Zhai Tian. The two of us were too scared to stay in the house any longer, so we dragged the master away... Later, we didn't dare to see Zhai Tian's body again." Lu Yusheng thought of Zhai Tian's bloody body, heaved, turned around and vomited.

Mu Hanxing had a solemn expression on his face and fell into deep thought.

I'm afraid this is the second rule in the city, which does not allow the random killing of "civilians" wandering on the streets.

Zhai Tian died because he violated the rules, and as Xu Shan said just now, the big brother who came with him was probably killed by an evil spirit because he violated the first rule and came to watch the show uninvited. No one knows where the body is.

No wonder Cui Ren couldn’t come back. It seems that things are indeed a bit tricky.

"Where is the master?" Mu Hanxing asked again.

"Later, we met a fortune teller during the day. He said that there was a Guan Erye statue in Ziyun Inn that could protect the house, and ghosts could not enter the house and kill people. So we stayed in Ziyun Inn together, and Master is now in the inn." Lin Yifeng said.

Fortunately, this loser is not dead yet, otherwise if he died, all her subsequent plans would be in vain.

"It's getting late. Let's go back to Ziyun Inn first and meet up with the people from outside the city there." After Mu Hanxing said this, he took the lead and walked towards Ziyun Inn.

"Wait! Are you really here to save us? How can we get out of the city?" Lu Yusheng called her from behind.

She took a deep breath, resisting the urge to beat them up. Then she looked back at the two of them with cold eyes and asked, "You are disciples of the Heart-Searching Sect. You should exorcise demons, uphold justice, and help the people solve their problems. It's been so many days, and you haven't solved the weirdness here, but all you think about is leaving the city to save your life. Aren't you ashamed? Are you worthy of being disciples of the Heart-Searching Sect?"

Jingchen and Fengxiao also glanced at the two of them coldly.

The two of them felt hot, ashamed and embarrassed at this question. They pursed their lips in silence, not daring to confront her anymore, and followed her back to the inn silently.

On the way, Mu Hanxing asked Jingchen: "How did you communicate with the shopkeeper when you bought the orchid grass in the medicine shop? Is the shopkeeper a normal person?"

Jingchen said, "The names of the medicines and their corresponding prices were posted on the wall of the medicine shop. The shopkeeper pointed to me without saying anything. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I didn't ask him anything. I bought the medicine, looked around, and came back."

She nodded: "Let's go back first."

After walking for a while, they arrived at Ziyun Inn. When they arrived at the door of the inn, she looked up and saw that it had become completely dark in just a short while. There was no moon in the sky and no evening clouds. She could only see the surrounding scenery with the help of the two lanterns at the door of the inn.

With doubt, she pushed open the door and stepped into the inn.

As soon as they entered, they found that many people were sitting at the square tables on the first floor of the inn. When they heard the sound of the inn door, they shuddered all over, subconsciously grasped the weapons in their hands, and looked towards the door nervously. After seeing this... it was as if they had seen a ghost!

"Mu Hanxing! You are still alive!" The loudest voice came from Cui Ren who was sitting inside.

Cui Ren simply couldn't believe it. There were rumors in the martial arts world that the Lord of Fuyue City was reborn. He didn't believe it at first, but when he saw her with his own eyes this time, he couldn't help but spit blood and was so angry that his teeth were itching.

He drew his sword, stood up, glared at her and shouted, "Are you... a human or a ghost?!"

Just by looking at this man's attitude, tone, dress, age, and those two unattractive mustaches, you can tell that he is Cui Ren.

Mu Hanxing quickly got into character and taunted, "Hey, isn't this Sect Leader Cui? Long time no see. The new Sect Leader must be very busy, right?"

"You..." Cui Ren was so angry when he saw that she was a living person that his mustache flew up to the sky, and he was about to draw his sword.

"Master, don't be impulsive!" His group of disciples calmly dissuaded him.

But Mu Hanxing's survival was a blow to him. Lu Xin had finally died, and he had gone to great lengths to become the new leader, using the title of slaying the devil.

If she were still alive, wouldn't his position in the Wenxin Sect be in jeopardy? She was Lu Xin's favorite disciple in the past.

Cui Ren had probably been trapped for several days and had lost his mind. He was completely crazy. He somersaulted over with his sword in hand and stabbed her in mid-air!

Mu Hanxing looked at him coldly, too lazy to do anything. Sure enough, the two male favorites beside her stepped forward in time to protect her.

At the same time that Jing Chen pulled her back, an orange-red feather in Feng Xiao's hand flew out with a glowing spiritual light and hit Cui Ren's sword. With a "bang", the spiritual fire feather dissipated completely, but Cui Ren's sword was burned hot. His sword-holding hand suddenly felt the pain of the karma fire, and quickly let go of the sword, which fell to the ground from mid-air.

She sneered in her heart that the head of the sect was so reckless and disregarded his manners.
