The villain and I have eight hundred minds combined

Chapter 171: Strange Things in the Theater (19)

Cui Ren and Guangsheng widened their eyes, unable to believe it. This was simply using human lives to test other people's way of survival!

"Is your method reliable?" Cui Ren didn't believe Mu Hanxing at all.

Mu Hanxing glanced at him, the anger in her heart rising, but she still held it back. She was too lazy to curse or explain, so she simply walked out of Ziyun Inn with a bold step!

The group of people's eyes were shocked, their hearts suddenly hung in the air for a moment, and they jumped up from their stools in fear. But after a while, they saw her standing under the light at the door of the inn, safe and sound, and their faces showed disbelief and surprise again.

"So I can really go out at night!?" Lin Yifeng looked Mu Hanxing up and down and found that not a single hair had fallen from her head.

Mu Hanxing believes in her own judgment and also believes in the counselors around her. The new idea was also proposed by her, so if they need to try and make mistakes, it is natural for her to go first.

"Master Cui, do you believe me now?" Mu Hanxing asked Cui Ren while standing at the door.

Cui Ren was stunned for a moment, then sat back down unwillingly, saying stubbornly and arrogantly, "Humph, you're just lucky."

"Master, have you had enough?" Lin Yifeng finally couldn't help it and shouted at the top of his voice.

Cui Ren's eyes widened, and he looked at Lin Yifeng, who was always well-behaved and obedient, in disbelief.

"It's been so many days since we received the mission. Not only have we failed to solve the dilemma here, you also failed to take me and my junior brother out safely! Now others are trying their best to find a solution, at least they really want to take everyone out, but you keep denying it! Denying it! Fearing that others will take away your credit! Today, you yelled at me and my junior brother to fly out first while the city gates are wide open. Was it because you wanted us to escape first, or because you wanted to test us to see if the guards would let the second person out of the city!"

"You!" Cui Ren was so angry that he was shaking, and he slapped Lin Yifeng hard on the face.

There was a loud "pop" sound.

Lin Yifeng covered his face, stared at Cui Ren with red eyes, and said with gritted teeth: "Junior brother... was killed by you! How can you be someone else's master!"

The others looked at the master and disciple in silence, and they all knew what happened in the morning. The fortune teller sitting on the side had a darkening look in his eyes and looked at Cui Ren with a meaningful look.

Gong Yu looked down on the people from the Wenxin Sect, and didn't care about their master-disciple conflict. He changed the topic to serious matters: "Now stop blaming each other. If you agree, come with us. If you don't agree, stay at the inn and continue to wait."

"Why should we go with you? If you find the center of the formation and destroy it, won't everyone be able to get out?" Guangsheng asked again.

Mu Hanxing added: "I now suspect that the entire city might be a huge fantasy city. If we can find an exit to escape the fantasy city after breaking through the array, and you are still staying in the inn, I am afraid I will not have time to take you all away. It is best to follow me under the candlelight closest to the stage. This way you will be safe and I can take you away as soon as I find the exit."

This is the best solution she could think of so far.

She really couldn't guarantee that after breaking the core of the formation, the entire city would disappear or there would be an exit left for people to escape.

This theory was thought of in line with Jingchen's thinking. If they are all shadow puppets on the stage now, then the whole city may be a huge stage. This can also explain the strange weather here. There is no sun, moon, or clouds, only those weird and extremely unnatural colors. These are the daytime shadow play scenes and night shadow play scenes created by ghosts.

"Make your own decision, whether to go with us or stay here and wait." Gong Yu asked after looking around at the people in the inn.

Unexpectedly, the usually taciturn fortune teller stood up and said, "I'll go with you."

After saying this, he stepped out of the inn and stood steadily with Mu Hanxing under the candlelight.

Guangsheng originally planned to stay in the inn with Guan Erye and not move, but when he saw the two men were safe and sound under the candlelight, and even the mysterious fortune teller chose to go with them, he hesitated for a moment.

He rolled his eyes and looked at Su Miaoying in the inn again, seeing that her eyes were still determined and calm. She was also the first person who decided to leave the inn at night. He thought that if he stayed here, maybe no one would come back to rescue him.

Su Miaoying got up without saying anything and left the inn, standing next to Mu Hanxing.

At this time, Lin Yifeng walked forward with a cold and resolute look, looked at Mu Hanxing outside the inn and said, "I'll go with you."

Cui Ren clenched his fists and yelled at Lin Yifeng: "Lin Yifeng! You actually... you are betraying your master!"

Lin Yifeng's eyes were cold, and he said calmly with his back to Cui Ren: "I'm not sure whether she is a demon-possessed person, but at this moment, I would rather go with her."

"You... okay, then go! From today on, the relationship between you and me as master and disciple ends here!" Cui Ren roared, shaking with anger.

Lin Yifeng stepped out of Ziyun Inn without hesitation and stood under the candlelight with Mu Hanxing.

Cui Ren angrily lifted up his clothes and sat back at the table without moving a muscle. It seemed that he had no intention of leaving and wanted to completely break up with his apprentice and not walk the same path anymore.

Although she let them make their own choice, if it was really as she expected and the exit of the Fantasy City was around the stage, and she was the only one who failed to save Cui Ren, then her mission would have failed.

She thought quickly and used a trick to provoke the opponent.

She sneered and said to Cui Ren who was sitting in the inn: "Why, Master Cui, even your apprentice... Oh, no, he has broken up with you. Anyway, now Lin Yifeng is willing to temporarily put aside the past grudges and turn to me, and try to break in at night with me. Although you are not his master, your courage is not as good as that of a teenager, right?"

Cui Ren glared at her, then flew out and landed steadily in the light. He was still stubborn: "Okay, I want to see how capable you are in getting everyone out!"

Such a simple provocation can lure him out. I guess he is just waiting for a way out.

This guy is so boring.

It’s not so much that Mu Hanxing has hatred towards this person, but rather he is disgusted with him to the point of losing interest in him.

Everyone came out of the inn one after another and stood in the candlelight.

Seeing that Guangsheng was the only one left in the inn, looking worried and troubled, she did not force him. She finally asked, "If you don't want to leave, then stay here. I hope I can come back in time to save you."

After she finished speaking, she was about to lead the way and leave. At this moment, she heard a voice: "Wait for me!"

In this situation, staying alone in one place would be tantamount to a mental breakdown. He was unwilling to do so and would rather follow the decision of the majority, so he was forced to come out.
