CHAPTER 321: CHAPTER 321

Chen Muxue finally noticed the injuries on Xiaohua’s face, and was instantly heartbroken: "That old candlestick from the Yin Family, treating such a young child like this, and it’s still his own daughter!"

She lowered her voice, as if Xiaohua was not unconscious but merely asleep, afraid of waking her up.

"By the way, did you guys kill that old candlestick? I got hit by his move, and after being bitten by his centipede, I just passed out." As Chen Muxue spoke, she began to check the wound on her arm.

But to her surprise, her body seemed perfectly intact; there was no wound at all, let alone any marks from being bitten by Old Master Yin’s venomous centipede.

However, before she passed out, she clearly remembered being bitten in these places, right?

Cen Lizhui saw her bewildered look and frowned: "The head of the Yin Family should already be dead, and the Yin Family has also been burned down. When Lin Qing found you, you were lying a street away from the Yin Family. Why were you unconscious, and how did you get there?"

Chen Muxue was utterly confused: "Wow, was there a chivalrous hero who took action upon seeing injustice? I have to say, that old candlestick from the Yin Family deserved to die! Maybe it was the hero who found me and Xiaohua, took pity, and rescued us. Tsk, such a chivalrous spirit, I hope I can keep my eyes open to see him next time—maybe it could be a very dashing heroine?"

Seeing Chen Muxue getting more and more off track, Lin Qing made a sound of disapproval: "Stop! How come I haven’t heard of another righteous hero in this world? Do you honestly remember nothing?"

"From the time I entered the Yin Family to when I passed out, I hadn’t even seen Xiaohua’s face!" Chen Muxue said, unable to resist gently touching Xiaohua’s face, "This poor child..."

"If my information isn’t wrong, Old Master Yin was a Nascent Soul Fifth Stage cultivator, which in the mortal world would be considered quite a master, plus in the Yin Family, where poisonous insects were everywhere, with Chen Muxue’s power, it indeed seemed unlikely for her to kill him..." Cen Lizhui analyzed with a frown.

Although Chen Muxue felt like these words made her seem weak, she surprisingly couldn’t refute them for a moment...

Lin Qing rubbed his chin: "That is indeed strange... Could it be that the Yin Family provoked someone? Or perhaps a vendetta happened to catch up with them? By the way, what were you doing at the Yin Family?"

Everyone’s gaze swish swish swish turned to Chen Muxue, and Chen Muxue clicked her tongue: "Of course, I was there to rescue Xiaohua. Her wet nurse might have been affected by some Gu of Old Master Yin, abducting Xiaohua, and Old Master Yin definitely had some use for Xiaohua, constantly blocking me... cough, I originally had already knocked him down, but I just accidentally slipped and fell into a pile of centipedes."

Everyone’s eyes told her: if she told it so realistically, they might really believe it.

"Honestly, I’m just super amazing, you believe it or not." Chen Muxue reflexively extended her right hand, then realized she shouldn’t be showing off the black qi situation.

Seeing everyone’s gaze scatter, Chen Muxue suddenly frowned, her right hand seemed different?

The black qi that continuously spread earlier seemed... to have disappeared just like that?!

Chen Muxue astonishingly flipped her right hand back and forth, discovering that the layer of black mist had not only vanished, but the faint golden light that originally only belonged to her little finger had now entirely replaced the black qi, directly spreading to the area below her right elbow!

She couldn’t help but splash some water, the crystal-clear water told her that she had inexplicably recovered!

Lin Qing gazed at the little bamboo shoots sprouting from the water-splashed clothes, falling into deep thought.
