Chapter 22 Faerie City Lord
Being in it, I naturally know how difficult it is for a demon with good intentions to be feared by mortals in this world.

Looking at the girl's eyes that were bloodshot and wide open, she felt like something had chiseled her heart.

Don't rest your eyes!

Maybe it will be her fate in the future.

Mu Yishang put her hands over the girl's eyes, and gently closed her eyelids.

She drew a spell on the girl's forehead, and then closed her eyes.

Reminiscing about the life of the dead soul, Mu Yishang entered the space of the girl's quarter of an hour before her death.

There is darkness in front of my eyes, the blackness of night, and the quietness is daunting.

After a long time, a creak broke the silence in the room.

The window was slowly opened, and a human figure whose whole body was completely dark came in.

Yes, it's not a black mask, but a black that can't even see the skin and flesh with the eyes and hands.

Mu Yishang frowned, not knowing what it was.

She watched the black figure slowly approaching the couch.

It was probably because the figure knew that the monk living next door had deliberately used the magic of silence, and crept closer just in case.

Not long after, the figure had arrived in front of the bed.

The girl on the couch seemed to sense someone approaching, and the moment she opened her eyes, her mouth was covered by that black hand.

The girl couldn't make any sound. She wanted to struggle, but her body seemed to be controlled by a spell, and she couldn't move at all.

She could only look at the black figure in front of her in horror, her pupils trembling violently.

The next second, the black shadow let go of his hand, but the girl still couldn't make any sound, but stared at the black shadow with wide eyes in panic.

The black shadow's hand landed on the girl's abdomen, piercing the girl's flesh accurately.

The girl's pupils constricted because of the severe pain.

But even so, she was still unable to make a sound, nor could she resist.

She almost watched her internal organs being taken out, the pain became more and more intense, until her eyes gradually lost focus in the weakness.

The black shadow seemed to be looking for something, and just after the girl died, he still tore out her internal organs and threw them aside.

After a long time, the black shadow finally stopped, probably because he found what he wanted.

The black hand took out the thing tightly and held it in the palm.

Mu Yishang tried her best to look at it, but she could only faintly see a little red.

However, Hei Ying's hands were covered with blood, and Mu Yishang couldn't even tell whether the red color was blood or something else.

After getting what he wanted, Soi Ying used spells to clean up the blood on his body, and he opened the window again and left the inn without hesitation.

The window was closed by the black shadow, and Mu Yishang's detection ability couldn't leave the inn, so he couldn't catch up.

She could only withdraw from the death chasing technique, and slowly opened her eyes.

The death of the girl in front of her was no different from what she saw, the only difference was that the girl's frightened eyes were closed by Mu Yishang.

"Sister?" Mu Yihan, who had been waiting for a long time, called out to her.

Mu Yishang turned her head and said to him, "He is a person with profound cultivation."

Mu Yihan frowned, as if she was thinking about something.

Yes, he should have thought of it.

The burly man yesterday was an ordinary mortal, not to mention a high level of cultivation, even the slightest level of cultivation is not enough.

So, this means that the girl's death was not done by that person.

Mu Yihan was silent for a long time, and said, "Did that person talk about it yesterday?"

Mu Yishang was startled, "What?"

The boy gritted his teeth and said, "He said, he can't deal with you, he will find someone to deal with you."

Mu Yishang never cared about such cruel words, but he didn't care at all. She didn't expect Mu Yihan to remember all of them in her heart.

Mu Yihan said: "In my opinion, there must be a powerful character behind that bastard to back him up. Maybe the person with advanced cultivation that my sister mentioned is the person behind that bastard!"

Mu Yishang: "It's not impossible, but I always feel that maybe..."

She was silent for a moment after speaking halfway, as if hesitating whether to speak or not.

Under Mu Yihan's suspicious gaze, she shook her head and said, "Maybe I made a mistake, I'll go out with you to find that man yesterday, then the truth will come to light."

Mu Yihan nodded, "Okay."

When Gu Liushang heard the conversation between the two, he immediately left the door and stood a little further away.

After the two came out, Gu Liushang asked, "How's the situation, did Master find anything?"

Sure enough, as he thought, Mu Yishang didn't want him to participate in it, but smiled softly and said: "It's nothing, Yihan and I are going out for a while, and Ah Shang is waiting for us to come back in the inn alright."

But Gu Liushang quickly grabbed her sleeve, and said nervously: "But Master, I...I'm scared. That girl... is dead, right? I dare not stay here alone, if Master comes back , what should I do if the murderer is back?"

Mu Yishang felt that what he said made sense, so she changed her words, "Forget it, you'd better follow us."

Gu Liushang nodded contentedly.

Although his cultivation base is not high, he is a descendant of the god race after all, how can ordinary people kill him?

If it weren't for this, after the death of his previous master, he wouldn't have been seeking death for many years before he finally got his wish.

However, this time the situation was weird, and he felt a faint uneasiness in his heart. He felt that all this might be aimed at the master, and he had to follow him to check the situation in case of emergency.

As soon as the three of them walked down the stairs, the shopkeeper who was knocking on the abacus looked over.

There seemed to be some strangeness in his eyes, as if he was wary of the three of them.

Gu Liushang held Mu Yishang's hand, whispered into her ear, "Master, it seems that what happened last night has spread."

Mu Yishang's eyes sank, a little surprised.

Although she was indeed standing up for the demon yesterday, she was not so vigilant.

What surprised her even more was that the news in this fairy city seemed to be transmitted too quickly.

But overnight, even the shopkeeper of the inn knew about it?
No, it's not just that.

Mu Yishang's eyes fell on the diners sitting in the lobby.

Everyone's eyes seemed to be on her, and some even lowered their heads hastily when she looked over.

As the lord of Shuiyue Palace, she has irradiated Xianling City for many years, and there are many people in the city who don't know her.

But now she just sheltered the former between the good monster and the wicked, so she quickly became the target of public criticism?
Mu Yishang sighed in her heart, but she could only say to Gu Liushang: "It's okay, we just don't care."

Even though he pretended to be nonchalant on the surface, Gu Liushang knew better than anyone else how much Mu Yishang cared about the opinions of the world.

His eyes sank and he remained silent.

Walking out of the inn, passers-by on the street also cast strange looks at the three of them.

Mu Yihan has a violent temper, how could he bear it, he immediately became angry, pointed at the passers-by around, and said angrily: "I said you, what are you looking at? Have you never seen Grandpa?"

He roared so imposingly that the passersby scattered in fright.

Mu Yihan spat angrily, "It's all a group of bastards, even among the monsters, it's rare to see such a thing!"

Compared with mortals, monsters follow their nature. Even evil monsters are only for their own benefit, and they do evil straightforwardly. They are never like the mortals in this fairy city, who follow the wind and sway when the wind blows!
Mu Yishang shook his head at him, and said: "Yihan, don't be angry, these people are just afraid of power, we just don't have the same experience as them."

Mu Yihan snorted sullenly, and said: "I always thought that you were a palace master in the Shuanghuamen, which was a respected position that no one else could shake, so I was worried that you would be arrogant and would not recognize me. Now It seems that your life in this Shuanghuamen is not satisfactory, you are trembling like walking on thin ice!"

He glanced at Mu Yishang, and said again: "If I had known this, I should have taken you out of Shuanghua Gate earlier. The world is so big, there is always a place where you can be free and easy, unlike this ghost place, where there is no distinction between right and wrong. Can't tell right from wrong!"

Mu Yishang smiled and said: "Where there are people, there will be rules. It is very difficult to pursue absolute freedom, besides..."

She suppressed her smile, her eyes darkened, "Besides, I have been domesticated like this for so many years, and I have long since lost the hope of pursuing equality and freedom. As for right and wrong, black and white are blended with each other, it is impossible You can tell the difference completely. Yihan, you don’t understand these things now, but you will understand them in the future.”

Of course Mu Yihan didn't understand, and couldn't understand.

He snorted and said, "You can do whatever you want, I don't bother to care about you."

The boy will not be happy if his good intentions are betrayed.

When he gets angry, he will inevitably be awkward.

Mu Yishang is also a good-natured person, she just said: "Don't worry about me, these things don't matter to me at all, I am much stronger than Yihan imagined."

However, right now it is in a predicament.

Wherever the three of them went, the people were very vigilant and did not provide them with any clues at all.

After wandering around in Fairy City, I still didn't get any information in the end.

There was really no other way, so Mu Yishang had no choice but to take the two of them to the City Lord's Mansion.

The city lord of Xianling City is a disciple of Shuanghua Sect, so he can be regarded as Mu Yishang's younger brother, but he is not the disciple of Mu Yishang's master Yongcheng Xianzun, but the disciple of other palace lords.

That person's name was Fang Dongyu, and Mu Yishang had met him several times, but they were not close.

Most of the time, he would report disasters in Fairy Spirit City to Shuanghuamen, write to the head of the Sect, Bai Qingzhu, and then Bai Qingzhu would assign personnel to go down the mountain to deal with them.

Fortunately, in the early years, the senior brother who was in charge of the sect took her to the City Lord's Mansion once, otherwise, according to the current situation, it would be impossible to inquire about it.

After about half an hour, the three finally found the City Lord's Mansion.

Mu Yihan put her arms around her chest and said angrily, "After going around for so long, you still have the nerve to say that you know the way?"

Before Mu Yishang could argue, Gu Liushang spoke first, "If it wasn't for someone's impulsiveness, we could ask him for directions now!"

"You!!" Mu Yihan was left speechless by him.

Mu Yishang tugged at the sleeves of the two of them, and said helplessly, "Stop arguing, we've already found it anyway, huh?"

Gu Liuzhang and Mu Yihan looked at each other, and then looked away.

Really hate each other!
There were two guards standing outside the gate of the City Lord's Mansion. They looked very tall and powerful.

After approaching, Mu Yishang sensed something was wrong.

Those two guards were not ordinary people, but tiger demons.

The tiger demon seemed to have used some kind of medicine, and all the demonic aura on his body had subsided. Not to mention ordinary people, even monks or demons with cultivation bases could hardly detect it.

If it wasn't for Mu Yishang's advanced cultivation, being one of the best among demon cultivators, she probably wouldn't have noticed it.

"Who is coming?"

The two tiger demons said these four words in unison.

What is surprising is that not only the speech is synchronized, but the voices of the two demons are exactly the same.

Taking a closer look at the two demons, it seems that even their appearance is not much different.

Mu Yishang cupped her hands and said, "Mu Yishang, the Mistress of Shuanghuamen Shuiyue Palace, asks to see the City Lord, please report to me."

The tiger demons looked at each other, one of them nodded, and the other entered the mansion gate.

Gu Liushang quietly pulled Mu Yishang's little finger, and Mu Yishang took a few steps back to distance herself from the gate of the mansion.

"Master, these two people look a little weird, and there seems to be something wrong with their expressionless faces." Gu Liuzhang said in a low voice.

Mu Yihan also listened with his ears, a little puzzled, "What's so strange about this?"

Gu Liushang gave him a sideways glance, and was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he continued to say to Mu Yishang: "Master, I think this city lord's mansion also has a very depressing feeling. I just felt very uncomfortable when I approached the door. I can't tell. Why, but...it feels bad."

Mu Yishang turned her eyes to look in the direction of the mansion gate and the tiger demon.

She closed her eyes and put two fingers on her eyelids.

After a while, when he opened his eyes again, a red light flashed in them.

In an instant, the world in Mu Yishang's eyes changed.

This is the spiritual detection technique, which can perceive the distribution of spiritual power, demon power and even devil energy around it.

The strange thing is that there doesn't seem to be any monster power in the City Lord's Mansion, nor does it have any spiritual power or magic energy.

She put away her spells and shook her head, "There is only the distribution of aura that belongs to the fairy city here, and there is no spiritual power and monster power of those who practice it, but... those two guards are not ordinary people, but tiger demons. That's it." It's strange, it's clearly a demon, but it has no demon power. If you say that you can use medicine to get rid of the demon energy, but the demon power must exist in the demon cultivator's body, it is impossible to be completely undetectable."

Mu Yihan was a little puzzled, "The two at the door are demons? But I didn't feel it at all!"

Mu Yishang nodded and said: "It seems that it is really like what Ah Shang said, there must be something weird in it, we'd better be careful."

Not long after, the city lord Fang Dongyu came out to greet Mu Yishang in person.

Mu Yishang has met this person several times, he is a very polite man, he looks upright, he looks like a very decent person.

When Fang Dongyu was still in Shuanghuamen, he was famous.
