Chapter 178: Chapter 177 Princely Heir, Don’t Seek Death
Mu Xi did not know the extent of his fate, but at this mont, he was utterly enraged, cursing at the guards and the hidden guards kneeling before him.
“You are all so insolent, defying your superiors! When I get back, I’ll have my father replace you all. And you, just keep hiding in the shadows! Why co out? You even knelt down to apologize to that kid. You’ve completely humiliated !” Thinking of his loss of face in front of Qin Liuxi filled Mu Xi with such rage he wanted to dig into the earth.
He was the illustrious Heir Mu, always accustod to people begging for rcy in his presence. Today was the first ti his dignity was undercut in front of soone else. Ah! If this spreads to the capital, how can he face anyone?
He was furious to death!
The hidden guard knelt on the ground, solemnly said, “Young Master Heir, losing face is still better than losing your life.”
“Do you really think she would dare to kill ?” Mu Xi was unconvinced.
“She indeed pointed out Young Master Heir’s weakness,” the hidden guard said, looking at the peace charm hanging on his waist and the protective magical artifact he wore on his chest. “If she didn’t have any skills, how could she know about the talismans and magic artifacts on your body? If she really managed to remove your amulet and let evil forces close in, even if we had high martial arts skills, we wouldn’t be able to save you.”
They just had their martial arts, but not spells. To vanquish demons and subdue evil spirits—they couldn’t do such things!
Mu Xi choked, saying, “Are you stupid? Look at how young she is, she’s not even older than . How could she have such abilities?”
“People of the Mystic Sect are not judged by their age, Young Master Heir should understand this,” the hidden guard said with a wary expression. “Moreover, she does have the ability. Would the subordinate show himself from his hiding place if it weren’t for her coercion?”
He didn’t know what she had done to him, but he knew that people of the Mystic Sect had bizarre and unpredictable thods. Suddenly his hand felt a stabbing pain, cold and limp, but as soon as he decisively ca out to apologize, the pain in his hand disappeared after she left.
No hidden weapons, no poison, nor any obvious physical attacks, yet still, she managed to do sothing to him without him noticing when and what exactly.
The hidden guard was called so because he had undergone rigorous training. Those who could follow Heir Mu were even more elite. He considered his movents mysterious, yet she knew where he was hiding without looking and made her move.
And he, he didn’t even know when she made her move, because while she spoke, in the span of a single breath, his hand was affected. If she had intended to take his life, he would already be eting King Yan by now.
Thus, Qin Liuxi was very fearso.
No, people of the Mystic Sect are extraordinary and capricious. If she really were a Daoist, based on the skill she showed, she was certainly no god-stick seeking fa through deception.
Everyone was shocked by the hidden guard’s words. Was this top-notch hidden guard really forced out by Qin Liuxi?
When had she acted?
Mu Xi was montarily stunned too, and felt humiliated to be subdued, saying, “But we have more people. If we can’t win one-on-one, we can still win a fight all together, right?”
“Young Master Heir, they didn’t want to fight in the first place!” Shuangquan couldn’t help but interject.
Mu Xi: “I don’t care! We finally found the person, and before I could even ask for a na, you all ssed it up.”
“Then Young Master Heir, the other party also said they are from the Mystic Sect, not so people from another garden, they won’t tolerate your behavior,” another guard said.
Mu Xi: “!”
So, what should he do now? It’s not easy to co across soone interesting.
“Didn’t she say she was from Qingping Temple? If we block her at the temple, perhaps she will be touched by my effort and leave the secular life?” Mu Xi clapped his hands, feeling he had co up with an excellent idea.
Everyone: Shall we discuss, is it feasible to knock Heir Mu unconscious and carry him back to the capital? Insurrection must be better than watching him court death, right?
