Not following the expected path? Reborn and unexpectedly married to a demon.
Chapter 178 Unexpected
“I’m asking you,” Jin Wuchen said, looking at Xiao Ying.
Xiao Ying had never seen anyone like this before. As if possessed, he confessed everything: "I'm here to deliver a message to Master Fei on behalf of a young lady."
Jin Wuchen wondered what kind of trouble Fei Zhiyou had gotten himself into this time, sending such an honest man to deliver the message.
Fei Zhiyou said he had something to attend to and wouldn't be coming over right now.
Jin Wuchen looked at Xiao Ying's expression and thought that if Chu Luo were here, she would probably soften and try to find a solution for him. So he said, "Give me the letter."
The apprentice hesitated for a moment, "But..."
Xiao Ying hesitated upon seeing the medicine boy's appearance.
Just then, the shopkeeper came up and, knowing that Jin Wuchen had asked for the letter, nodded to the hesitant Xiao Ying.
Xiao Ying took the letter out of her bosom and presented it with both hands to the table where Jin Wuchen was sitting.
Jin Wuchen had no intention of reading such an ordinary letter. Xiao Ying also noticed his expression and thought that he probably wouldn't read the letter and would lose it once he left.
With a mix of trepidation and uncertainty, he considered whether to reveal that it was a letter from Miss Chu. However, recalling the young apprentice's expression, he realized that this person was probably not the head of the Fei family, but rather someone of similar status.
Although Jin Wuchen didn't care about the letter, since he had kept it, he would naturally hand it over to Fei Zhiyou.
Manager Chang knew this man quite well; he either wouldn't get involved, or if he was interested in doing so, he would definitely do it well.
Manager Chang told Xiao Ying, "Don't worry, this letter will definitely reach our master, and he will see it."
Xiao Ying hesitated, wondering whether or not to tell them about Miss Chu's whereabouts.
"What else do you want to say?" Jin Wuchen glanced at him and noticed the strangeness in his expression.
"No...no, I'm leaving now," Xiao Ying wiped the sweat from her forehead and turned to go downstairs.
Manager Chang offered him some silver as a thank you, but Xiao Ying refused it no matter what.
Jin Wuchen sensed something was wrong. He glanced at the envelope, his pupils constricted, and he instantly stood up.
"Stop right there! Who sent you to deliver this message?"
Xiao Ying didn't understand why he would react so strongly just by looking at the words "To be opened by Fei Zhiyou personally" on the envelope. "It's a girl surnamed Chu."
"Where is she?" Jin Wuchen asked Xiao Ying.
"I...I don't know, she only told me to come here to deliver a letter."
"Only this one letter?" Jin Wuchen wondered if Chu Luo had written any letters to him besides Fei Zhiyou.
Xiao Ying didn't know the relationship between the person in front of her and Miss Chu, or what they had said before.
He was worried that she might know they were keeping another letter, and he panicked. "She only asked me to deliver this one; I don't know anything else."
Jin Wuchen had seen countless people and could tell at a glance that there was definitely something wrong with this Xiao Ying.
He looked at the unsealed letter, opened it directly, and saw its contents.
The letter merely asked Fei Zhiyou to help the Ying family settle some matters; it was insignificant.
"Manager Chang, take a look at this. Get the work done."
Jin Wuchen immediately gave instructions, as there was no doubt that the letter was written by Chu Luo. It contained the marks that Fei Zhiyou had taught her, which were unique to her and there was no mistake.
Manager Chang glanced at it and made a note of it. He then said to Xiao Ying, "I can help your family resolve these matters quickly. From now on, just send the medicinal herbs you gather here. Don't worry about the price."
Xiao Ying wasn't too happy to hear this; she only felt guilty.
Jin Wuchen had just returned and hadn't had a chance to see Chu Luo yet, but he figured that with Shu Tong by her side, Chu Luo's safety shouldn't be a big problem.
However, based on his understanding of Chu Luo, since she had already disguised herself and left, she would not easily reappear in front of Fei Zhiyou and him.
She did not seek Fei Zhiyou's help even when her symptoms were most frequent and severe.
And she could do the things mentioned in the letter.
He glanced at Xiao Ying, who looked strange, and waved his hand in front of his eyes. Xiao Ying instantly fell to the ground.
"Young Master Jin, what's going on?" Manager Chang asked, puzzled.
"It won't kill him," Jin Wuchen replied to Manager Chang without even looking up.
He didn't have time to investigate slowly, so he used a bit of the mind-control tracking technique that interrogators use on Xiaoyong.
Xiao Ying was already nervous and had something on her mind, so she mechanically recited the words from Chu Luo's second letter.
When Jin Wuchen heard that Chu Luo had entered Pingyue Valley alone and had Fei Zhiyou help her with the preparations, his heart leaped into his throat.
"When did she enter Pingyue Valley?" Jin Wuchen asked anxiously.
Four days ago
When Manager Chang saw that Jin Wuchen's already pale face had become even paler, he knew without a doubt that this Miss Chu must be very important.
Jin Wuchen immediately got up and was about to leave.
"Young Master Jin, you lost too much blood earlier, you can't..."
Manager Chang looked at Jin Wuchen's still bleeding wrist and his unsteady gait. This wasn't the first time he had met Jin Wuchen, and he knew about his physical condition.
From the moment he first saw Jin Wuchen, he could tell that he urgently needed to replenish his energy and recuperate. His condition was much more serious than before, otherwise he wouldn't have needed to use the items in cabinet number three.
Moreover, given his current condition, he will probably need to use the items in cabinet number three for several days.
If it weren't for his superior martial arts skills and unique physique, he would probably have been unconscious long ago, wandering on the brink of death.
Before Manager Chang could react, Jin Wuchen grabbed the medicine and flew away.
Manager Chang sighed, "He's really courting death. If our master were here, he would definitely stop him."
Shu Tong was already covered in blood, some of it from the ghost armor, and some from her.
The Ghost Armor is much more lethal than the Half-Face.
Previously, when the Sensha Ghost Realm went out to kill people, the highest-level assassin missions only sent thirty Ghost Armorers. But this time, when they came out to kill her, one hundred and fifty Ghost Armorers came. This is a unique treatment in the Sensha Ghost Realm.
With the Ghost Armor now mostly destroyed, Shu Tong slowed down and fought the creatures more slowly.
I'm tired of watching from halfway through, but I'm still incredibly excited. "This is really tough to kill. Even at this point, the rhythm hasn't faltered at all!"
Half-faced sat leisurely on a tree branch, eating braised beef while watching the battle, until an eagle appeared, and half-faced noticed that her gaze was on that eagle.
After the eagle arrived, Banmian noticed that her moves were sharper than before.
Banmian had seen this kind of eagle many times in Sensha and thought it was nothing special.
If there was anything different about this eagle, it was the wound near its eye. She was strong, and her eagle was trained, so it shouldn't be a kind creature. How could anything have hurt it?
Shu Tong's only attachment is Chu Luo, but Chu Luo is probably in danger.
"Do you want to die or prolong your lives for a few more days?" Shu Tong pinched the neck of a ghost armor member. The sound of bones breaking and the ghost armor member's screams rang in everyone's ears. Her gaze swept over the ghost armor members and evil spirits present, and her tone was as cold as poisoned ice.
Despite claiming to be fearless and unafraid of death, the Ghost Armor has frightened many people after such a fierce battle, causing them to drag themselves to the side.
"You wicked fiends, if you don't retreat, then attack all at once!"
"Damn it, how could they be so crazy? They're actually asking the evil spirits and the ghost armor to attack together right now." Banmian couldn't understand it at all.
The evil spirit stood still, which was also quite strange.
“Your Highness, you have been fighting for a long time. We will not advance now,” said Evil Killer, who was standing in front.
Banmian picked at his ear, wondering if he had misheard.
The most arrogant and domineering demon in the demon realm, who dared to defy anyone, would actually utter such respectful and submissive words; it's as if the sun rose in the west.
"If you don't retreat, you'll just have to watch. Choose a way to die, it'll be quick." Shu Tong's eyes instantly turned red.
"No! Retreat! His Highness is about to commit massacre!" a vicious demon shouted.
“Your Highness, your injuries haven’t healed yet, why are you in this state? What happened? If you agree to return to Sensha as the leader of the evil demons, we can…” one of the evil demons shouted.
"Enough nonsense. No one can control me. It's either retreat or die." Shu Tong turned around and looked at the group of thugs.
Knowing the destructive power of Shu Tong's self-inflicted injury, the evil spirit dared not step forward, nor dared to say another word.
And those ghost armors had no idea what they were about to face...
