Chapter 11: Not a single one can escape.
"Battle Master... You're a Battle Master!"
The once fierce-looking underlings were terrified when they saw Mu Zhan's aura-covered robe, and their voices trembled as they spoke.
You guessed right, but there's no reward.
Mu Zhan moved, instantly appearing beside the man. He flicked his finger at the man, sending him flying through the courtyard fence and crashing to the ground, where he died instantly.
Mu Zhan acted too fast, killing someone in the blink of an eye with just a finger.
"Run!"
The mercenaries who entered the courtyard realized what was happening and turned to run away. They crowded at the doorway, and the already flimsy door frame shattered under the pressure of the crowd.
"Those who have come in, don't leave."
Mu Zhan summoned a fifth-tier beast fire, flicking out several wisps of flame at the group. When the flames touched their bodies, the fire intensified, instantly reducing them to ashes.
Seeing the situation, Mu Li turned and ran. He wanted to go back to find his father, who was also a Battle Master. He would be safe once he saw his father, and his father could kill this kid.
But how could a mere fighter outrun Mu Zhan? Mu Zhan pushed off with his feet and arrived beside Mu Li in two steps, grabbing Mu Li's neck with his large hand.
Mu Li felt as if Mu Zhan's hand was like a pair of pliers, clamping tightly around his neck from behind, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free.
"Do you want to break my legs too?"
Mu Zhan lifted Mu Li up, and Mu Li grabbed Mu Zhan's hand, his dangling feet kicking wildly, his face turning red.
"You...can't...kill me, my...father is...Mu...Snake."
Mu Li was being choked by Mu Zhan. His face turned from red to purple from lack of air, and his eyes were about to bulge out. He desperately tried to say that his father was Mu She in order to save his life.
"Mu She? What is he anyway?"
Click!
With a slight exertion of force, Mu Zhan easily snapped Mu Li's neck as if he were squeezing a chick, and Mu Li immediately collapsed.
Mu Zhan threw the corpse on the ground and burned it to ashes.
Mu Zhan is now used to killing. As for a bad seed like Mu Li, it's fine if he doesn't provoke him, but if he does, he doesn't mind sending him to his death in advance. It's just a matter of a few words.
"Hey, there's another one here!"
After Mu Zhan killed Mu Li, he sensed that there were other people spying nearby, and he looked in the direction of that gaze.
"Oh no! We've been discovered!"
The woman had just witnessed the entire process of Mu Zhan killing someone and already knew how terrifying Mu Zhan was. When she saw Mu Zhan looking in her direction, she was so frightened that she wet herself and turned to run away.
But how could that person outrun Mu Zhan? Mu Zhan instantly appeared beside the person, grabbing the person's head with his large hand, preventing her from escaping.
The maid's head was held tightly, and she felt that the large hand holding her head was surprisingly strong.
She had no doubt that with just a little force, that hand would cause her head to explode like a watermelon.
"My lord, spare me! My lord!"
When it came to her own life, the maid began to beg for mercy, and Mu Zhan even smelled a stench of urine.
"So it was you."
Mu Zhan also saw the person's face clearly. It was the maid who had served him at Wan Yao Zhai earlier. Seeing her, Mu Zhan roughly understood the ins and outs of the matter.
"Little Fairy Doctor, look who I've brought you!"
He grabbed the maid's head with one hand and dragged her all the way to Little Fairy Doctor's courtyard.
At this moment, Little Fairy Doctor was still sitting on the stone bench in the courtyard, not yet recovered from the scene of Mu Zhan's great power.
"Are you...are you alright?"
When Little Fairy Doctor saw Mu Zhan return, she quickly came over to check if he was injured.
"It's nothing, just some small fish and shrimp, not worth mentioning."
"Look who I brought you."
Mu Zhan waved his hand to indicate that he was fine, and then threw the maid he was dragging with his left hand in front of Little Fairy Doctor.
"Lifie! What are you doing here?"
"Mu Zhan, you've got the wrong person. Li Fei is my assistant."
Little Fairy Doctor was also surprised to see Lifei, who was her assistant and also the person she trusted most at Wan Yao Zhai.
Little Fairy Doctor thought that Mu Zhan must have arrested the wrong person, and at the same time she breathed a sigh of relief that Mu Zhan had not mistakenly killed Lifei.
"It's not that simple. Listen to what she says herself."
Knowing the plot, Mu Zhan knew that Li Fei had already betrayed Xiao Yi Xian. Not only did she help Yao Zhaizhu monitor Xiao Yi Xian, but she also became Mu Li's plaything, revealing all of Xiao Yi Xian's secrets to Mu Li.
It's fair to say that this guy has taken double-dealing to the extreme; he's a complete scoundrel.
"Speak! Who sent you? If you tell me even half a lie, I'll make you understand the consequences of lying to me."
Mu Zhan toyed with the flame in his hand, his eyes filled with murderous intent as he looked at Li Fei.
"I'll tell you... I'll tell you! Master Yao sent me to Mu Li to tell him that Little Fairy Doctor wants to elope with the Master and wants to stir up conflict between the Master and the Wolf Head Mercenary Group."
"Master Yao has long coveted Little Fairy Doctor, sir. These were all things Master Yao ordered me to do; I was merely following orders!"
Lifi first kowtowed to Mu Zhan and begged for mercy. Then she placed her hopes on Xiao Yixian, crawled to Xiao Yixian's feet, and kowtowed to her.
"Lifie, you! You betrayed me! I even considered you a friend!"
Little Fairy Doctor never expected that her trusted assistant and best friend, with whom she could confide in no time, was actually one of Master Yao's people; it was simply unbelievable to her.
"I was forced to do all this by Master Yao! I was forced to!" Lifey pleaded.
Little Fairy Doctor has completely given up on Lifei; she no longer dares to believe a single word Lifei says.
"Mu Zhan, let's go."
Little Fairy Doctor then felt relieved. Anyway, she was going to leave with Mu Zhan, and this place was no longer related to her. Having figured it out, she walked out of the courtyard without looking back.
"Thank you, sir! Thank you, Little Fairy Doctor!"
As Lifei watched Little Fairy Doctor and Mu Zhan walk out of the courtyard, thinking she was spared from death, she quickly kowtowed in gratitude.
Just as she finished kowtowing and stood up to leave, a ball of flame shot in from outside the door like lightning, engulfing Liffie instantly.
Before she could even utter a sound, she was burned to ashes by the flames, becoming fertilizer for the small courtyard along with several other piles of ashes nearby.
After they left, Little Fairy Doctor knew nothing about what happened in the courtyard, and she probably didn't want to know.
"If you don't cut the weeds at the root, they will grow back in the spring breeze."
Adhering to the principle of eliminating enemies at all costs, Mu Zhan prepared to bring Little Fairy Doctor to their door to wipe out Mu She and Master Yao.
Little Fairy Doctor isn't some saint; she naturally understands this principle. Since she has chosen to follow Mu Zhan, everything must prioritize Mu Zhan.
Wanyaozhai.
"Why isn't Liffie back yet? Could something have happened to her?"
Master Yao sent Li Fei to gather information, but Li Fei has been gone for so long and hasn't returned yet. He's starting to get anxious. Could Li Fei have been arrested? If so, will she implicate him?
"Lify had something to do, so she asked me to come in her place."
