Chapter 231: Serves You Right


Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios


The atmosphere became even colder.


It had begun to snow. Thin snowflakes fluttered down, sparkling like jade.


Murong Yong looked at Gu Yanfei without blinking. A storm seemed to be brewing in his dark eyes, and the stench of corpses seemed to have thickened.


Even the servants of the Murong family behind him subconsciously leaned closer to Murong Yong and sniffed with complicated expressions.


They all thought in the same direction in fear. In other words, Second Lady Gu was telling the truth. Old Madam Murong was really dead!!


There were even timid servants who were so frightened that their legs trembled and their hair stood on end. They recalled that their families had recently served Old Madam Murong.


In less than ten minutes, Shangqing Spiritual Master’s expression had changed a few times because of Gu Yanfei’s words. His eyes were indescribably complicated.


He could no longer maintain his sage-like appearance, and his face darkened.


He took two steps closer to Gu Yanfei and questioned word by word, “Who are you)”


At this moment, Shangqing Spiritual Master’s voice was no longer the usual emotionless voice. Instead, there was a hint of sharpness and a hint of unhappiness that someone had ruined things.


A straightforward person didn’t resort to insinuations. Since Shangqing Spiritual Master had said so much, it meant that he didn’t intend to hide anything stubbornly.


After thinking for a while, Shangqing Spiritual Master understood more and asked bluntly, ‘Did you tear the talisman on the window?”


Murong Hao and his wife insisted that the talisman had been blown away by the wind. At that time, Shangqing Spiritual Master didn’t believe them. He just couldn’t be bothered to dwell on this problem.


Not everyone could remove the talisman he had pasted on the window. Only those who were related to Old Madam Murong or cultivators like him could remove it.


At that time, Shangqing Zhenren guessed that perhaps Murong Hao or others had wavered and wanted to give up. However, in the end, they were still reluctant to part with their future, so they only used one talisman.


The human heart was ever-changing. Shangqing Spiritual Master was already used to such things, so he didn’t pay much attention to it.


He didn’t expect such a person to be hidden in the Dingyuan Marquis


Household.


Shangqing Spiritual Master sized up Gu Yanfei with some scrutiny, probing, and speculation.


Seeing that Shangqing Spiritual Master didn’t directly deny Gu Yanfei’s words, Murong Yong felt as if a big hole was missing in his heart. Cold wind roared and poured in.


To him, “rushing joy” was to resolve the fiendishness with joyous events. It was more for the sake of festivity. There was no harm in failure, but success was beneficial to the Murong family.


Wasn’t that what happened?


Could it be that Grandma had really...


Murong Yong felt a chill run down his spine. His heart sank as if it had been soaked in water.


At this moment, he suddenly felt a suffocating darkness. Even the scene of his family guarding his grandmother’s bed and not letting others see her taking the medicine became extremely ironic.


His parents had also changed beyond recognition...


Murong Yong wasn’t a young boy after all. His years of experience on the battlefield had made him far calmer than his peers. His heart was like a storm, but he still adjusted his emotions in the shortest time possible and barely maintained his composure.


He interrogated Shangqing Spiritual Master in a gloomy tone, “Is what she said


He stared intently at Shangqing Spiritual Master. His expression was solemn, and his words were clear. His eyes gradually became deep and ruthless, like a blade sc.r.a.ping across his face inch by inch.


Facing Murong Yong’s aggressive questioning, Shangqing Spiritual Master smiled casually.


He casually flicked his horsetail whisk and returned to his sage-like appearance. He didn’t directly answer yes or no. Instead, he said calmly, “The descendants of your family are filial. Your father couldn’t bear to see your mother die. I was grateful for their filial piety, so I helped.’


‘Everyone knows that rushing joy can resolve the evil of calamity and heal the seriously ill.


Shangqing Spiritual Master spoke righteously, but Murong Yong’s brows were tightly furrowed. He could tell that the other party was patronizing him.


“Hehe...” Gu Yanfei smiled brightly, but there was undisguised mockery in her smile as she interrupted Shangqing Spiritual Master.


‘Borrowing luck for the sake of rushing joy. Should I lend this luck to Old Madam Murong, or to you?” Gu Yanfei’s voice was also tainted with the coldness of snow. A hint of coldness seeped into one’s heart.


Shangqing Spiritual Master’s expression changed slightly again, and he was shocked.


When did such a person appear in the capital?!


‘You still want to enter the Tao after being tainted by the karma of life and death?” Gu Yanfei’s words were sharp as she bluntly stabbed into the other party’s heart. “You’re really thinking too much..”
