After raising a cub, I won by doing nothing

Chapter 757 Please, Master, Save Me
"Then you get up from the ground first and we'll talk slowly." Mu Wanxi said.

Seeing Mu Wanxi was so insistent, Zuo Xiaodie had no choice but to get up from the ground and sit back on the chair.

"Since you are a mermaid, how did you end up here?" Mu Wanxi asked.

"It was Chu Xiang'er. Chu Xiang'er sent people to capture my whole family." Zuo Xiaodie said with red eyes, "My whole family hid our identity as mermaids and dared not show our true faces to others. We lived in the imperial capital for decades pretending to be ordinary people. I don't know how Chu Xiang'er found us. One night five years ago, she brought dozens of spiritual practitioners with high martial arts skills to capture our whole family. My sister was presented to her master by Chu Xiang'er, and my parents, eldest brother and second brother were taken to her black market by Chu Xiang'er, where they were killed alive and sold for blood and flesh."

When mentioning Chu Xiang'er, Zuo Xiaodie's tone was filled with hatred.

"Did Chu Xiang'er mention the black market to you?" Mu Wanxi asked.

She felt that Chu Xiang'er should not tell Zuo Xiaodie about such an important matter.

Zuo Xiaodie took a deep breath, trying to suppress the hatred boiling in her chest, and said to Mu Wanxi: "She didn't mention the black market, but before my parents passed away, they used their last breath and used all their strength to empathize with me. I watched them being bled dry by Chu Xianger's men. It was then that I realized that she had brought my parents and brothers to the black market."

After saying this, Zuo Xiaodie's eyes turned red.

"What about your sister? Where is she now?" Mu Wanxi asked.

"I don't know how my sister is doing now. Chu Xiang'er never told me where my family is. She only told me that if I don't obey, she will kill all my family members." Zuo Xiaodie said in a trembling voice, "Master, I really can't stand it anymore. I want to leave here. Chu Xiang'er plans to present me to the emperor of Liuhuo Country. I don't want to be at her mercy anymore. Please, Master, save me."

When Mu Wanxi heard the words "Emperor of Liuhuo Kingdom", the corners of his lips twitched.

Chu Xianger's ambition is really huge.

"Who is Chu Xiang'er's master?" Mu Wanxi asked. Zuo Xiaodie shook her head and said, "She only mentioned her master a few times by chance, and I don't know who it is."

Mu Wanxi could probably guess that Chu Xiang'er must have her own cleverness to have been able to hide in the imperial capital for so long, so there was nothing to say about not telling Zuo Xiaodie the secret.

"Sir, I have a portrait of my sister." Zuo Xiaodie suddenly thought of this, "Sir, you can see if you have seen her."

Mu Wanxi nodded and said, "Bring the portrait here."

Zuo Xiaodie stood up, walked to the wooden cabinet, opened it and took out a scroll from it, then turned back to Mu Wanxi and opened the scroll to her.

The scroll depicted a woman in a lake blue dress. She didn’t look much like Zuo Xiaodie, but she looked very familiar to Mu Wanxi.

The face of Jiu Niang, the owner of Yanluo Inn, flashed through my mind and miraculously overlapped with the face of the woman in the painting.

"How is it? Sir, have you met my sister?" Zuo Xiaodie asked impatiently.

Mu Wanxi narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "I seem to have seen it, but I'm not sure. I have to confirm it before I can give you an answer."

"You mean you've seen someone who looks very similar to my sister?" Zuo Xiaodie asked excitedly, "Then tell me if she's doing well?"
