The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple

Chapter 495 The Prince is Injured

Huo Zixu stared at Xiao Mubei viciously and said, "Mu Chen, ignore those two and kill this man!"

Muchen immediately turned to Xiao Mubei. Chu Yunxi was terrified and ran towards Xiao Mubei while shouting, "Muchen, you can't. I will never forgive you for killing his sister."

Muchen paused for a moment, and Huo Zixu said sternly: "Muchen, don't you want to listen to your uncle? Have you forgotten what you promised your uncle?"

In the blink of an eye, Chu Yunxi had already run to Xiao Mubei's side and stood in front of him. Xiao Mubei hurriedly pulled her behind him. Chu Yunxi shouted, "Mu Chen, you can't keep killing people. What your uncle said was wrong. He even beat you. You listen to your sister. Isn't your sister good to you?"

Muchen was in a dilemma and looked at Huo Zixu timidly. Huo Zixu said angrily, "Useless thing!" Then he whistled. Xiao Mubei and Chu Yunxi were puzzled. Muchen murmured, "Master."

Xiao Mubei's face changed. Muchen's master? Wouldn't that mean he was even more skilled than Muchen? As he was thinking, a tall figure flew out from the Huo Mansion. He had a head full of white hair and looked crazy. When Xiao Mubei saw this person, he was shocked. "Crazy Taoist? He's still alive?"

Chu Yunxi was panicked and asked, "Who is the crazy Taoist?"

But Xiao Mubei had no time to answer him, because the crazy Taoist priest came straight towards him. He immediately pushed Chu Yunxi away with one hand, and used all his internal strength to fight against the crazy Taoist priest with the other hand. However, the difference was too great after all, and Xiao Mubei's body flew far away like a kite with a broken string, and he spat out a mouthful of blood after landing!

Chu Yunxi was filled with shock and anger, and immediately pounced on Xiao Mubei. The second palm of the crazy Taoist had already arrived. Chu Yunxi only felt that the wind coming from behind made her face feel like it was cut by a sharp blade. She closed her eyes tightly, ready to take the blow. Xiao Mubei's eyes were bloodshot, and he wanted to push Chu Yunxi away, but she held her tightly and he couldn't move.

It seemed like a long time had passed, but it also seemed like only a moment had passed. The expected fatal blow did not fall on her. Chu Yunxi opened her eyes and turned her head to see Mu Chen blocking the crazy Taoist priest. She said pitifully, "Master, my sister is a good person."

The crazy Taoist impatiently slapped Mu Chen away and said, "Go away."

Seeing that Mu Chen was still trying to stop him, Huo Zixu pointed at Bai Yu Heimu, who had just stood up and was about to rush over to stop the crazy Taoist priest, and said to Mu Chen, "Go and kill them both."

Muchen looked back at the crazy Taoist priest with some concern, and said again: "Master, my sister is a good person, don't hurt her." After that, he went to fight with Baiyu Heimu. Baiyu Heimu was on guard, and Mu Chen was worried about him, so he kept looking back at Chu Yunxi. The three of them fought to a standstill.

The Crazy Taoist seemed to be better to Mu Chen than Huo Zixu. He did not attack immediately, but said to Chu Yunxi: "Girl, get out of the way. I won't kill you."

Chu Yunxi stubbornly protected the seriously injured Xiao Mubei, wondering why her senior brother hadn't come yet, but she said, "I won't let you."

The crazy Taoist priest seemed to be impatient. He raised his thick eyebrows and said, "Mu Chen doesn't want me to kill you, but if you want to die, I don't mind fulfilling your wish."

"Then just kill me. Kill me and see if Mu Chen will blame you." Chu Yunxi stared at him fearlessly.

The crazy Taoist scratched his messy white hair and shouted, "You really won't let me?"

"No."

During the time the two of them were talking, the Crazy Taoist had completely lost his patience and raised his hand again. At this time, Xiao Mubei suddenly said with difficulty behind Chu Yunxi: "Crazy Taoist, you owe Empress Xian a debt, don't you plan to pay it back?"

The mad Taoist raised his hand in the air and paused there, and said blankly: "What did you say?"

Xiao Mubei pushed Chu Yunxi and said softly, "Yunxi, you get up first."

Seeing that the situation seemed to have changed, Chu Yunxi obediently moved aside and helped Xiao Mubei sit up. Xiao Mubei took out a jade hairpin from his arms and said, "This is my mother's relic. You should recognize it, right?"

The crazy Taoist slowly lowered his hand and said hesitantly, "Are you... the son of Empress Xian?"

Xiao Mubei said: "That's right, my mother saved your life back then, but now you want to kill her only son. Are you such a person who repays kindness with enmity?"

It turned out that after Empress Xian left the palace, she made friends with many strange people in the martial arts world. Because she was the daughter of a military general and had a cheerful personality, she got along well with them. Some people in the martial arts world also regarded Empress Xian's villa as a refuge. When they were desperate, they begged Empress Xian for protection. Empress Xian accepted all comers and saved many people. She recorded all of this and drew portraits of each person. Empress Xian's skillful brushwork made each person come alive, with the purpose of paving the way for Xiao Mubei's future. Later, after her death, Xiao Mubei got this record. Because it was his mother's relic, he read it over and over again. He also knew that Empress Xian used the jade hairpin as a token of trust, so Xiao Mubei always carried the jade hairpin with him in case of emergency.

This crazy Taoist was the one who had received favor from Empress Xian in the past. According to Empress Xian's records, he was seriously injured and dying, and Empress Xian saved him. However, according to Empress Xian's records, this crazy Taoist was already very old at that time, and after so many years, it was unexpected that he was still alive and staying with Huo Zixu.

The crazy Taoist scratched his head in annoyance and said in a rough voice: "Since you are Concubine Xian's son, I can't kill you. Go away."

Xiao Mubei covered his chest, forcibly suppressed the fishy smell rising from his throat, and said, "I can't leave. I came here to catch him." He pointed at Huo Zixu, "I will leave naturally after I catch him."

The crazy Taoist said: "I won't kill you, but I won't let you kill him either. I won't do anything to you, but the others have no favors to me. If one comes, I'll kill one. If two come, I'll kill a pair."

A long laugh came from above, and Wen Rulan's voice said, "Really? Let me see for myself."

Given the situation today, if the Crazy Taoist and Muchen were not dealt with, it seemed that there was no way to successfully take Huo Zixu away. Wen Rulan fell from above and landed beside Xiao Mubei, asking, "How is the injury?"

Xiao Mubei had difficulty standing up, so he shook his head and said nothing. Chu Yunxi said, "Brother, be careful. This guy is very powerful."

Wen Rulan smiled confidently, "It's okay, you go and help the prince treat him, I'll take care of this man."

Zi Han's voice came from the other side, "Your Majesty, I am late."

Chu Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Zi Han, help Baiyu and Heimu capture Muchen. The rest of you, capture Huo Zixu and search the Huo Mansion." After saying that, she leaned over, helped Xiao Mubei up and put him on the carriage, and began to treat him.
