Chapter 138 - 138 What Happened in the Imperial City?
138 What Happened in the Imperial City?
In less than three days, Bun had finished reading all the books in Huo Chanyi’s storage ring.
Huo Chanyi would explain to him what he didn’t understand.
After returning to the prince’s residence, the little packrat followed Huo Chanyi and began to make poison powder.
With a professional like Huo Chanyi watching over him, Yun Ran had nothing to worry about.
After Mo Beiyuan returned to the mansion, he disappeared for a few days.
Yun Ran guessed that he was busy dealing with the matters of the demonic cultivators.
Yun Ran was not interested in how Mo Beiyuan dealt with the demonic cultivators, but Huo Chanyi still asked Thunderbolt.
“What has your master been busy with recently? Has there been any progress on the matter of the demonic cultivators? Can you find out which group of people massacred the Myriad Poison Valley?”
Demonic cultivators were also divided into factions, just like the various large sects.
Each faction had its own leader and cultivation technique, as well as its own lair.
Between factions, they would also want to compete for who was the strongest in the demonic path.
Therefore, over the years, the demonic cultivators had not been peaceful. On one hand, they had to avoid the pursuit of the orthodox sects, but on the other hand, they had to fight to the death amongst themselves.
Thunderbolt’s expression did not look too good. When he looked at her, his eyes were also avoiding hers.
Yun Ran only glanced at him and knew that something was wrong. “Tell me, what is it? Did something happen to Mo Beiyuan?”
Thunderbolt clenched his fists. After a long struggle in his heart, he finally said, “Miss Yun, do you know that the Imperial City hasn’t been peaceful recently…”
Yun Ran shook her head. She had been staying in the Yuan Mansion since she returned and did not know what had happened outside.
“It’s not peaceful? What happened in the Imperial City?”
Thunderbolt said anxiously, “There are demonic cultivators causing trouble in the Imperial City and many people have died tragically… I don’t know where the rumors came from, but they said…”
“Say what?”
Seeing that he was about to say something, Yun Ran frowned unhappily and gestured for him to continue.
“They said that you’re that demonic cultivator. Your cultivation suddenly increased exponentially and you snatched a heaven-grade spiritual root from the eldest daughter of the Yun family. It’s all because you’re a demonic cultivator.”
Yun Ran did not expect the blame to fall on her.
Thunderbolt sighed heavily and continued, “The one who died tragically was the son of the general’s first wife. He caused a ruckus… he went in front of the wretched emperor and insisted that the murderer was you. His Majesty sent several waves of people over, but they were all blocked by Master.”
“Now, everyone says that Master has been bewitched by a demonic cultivator like you and doesn’t even care about His Majesty. They even say that the two little masters are also small demonic cultivators. At such a young age, they already know how to snatch someone else’s cultivation.”
“Because it concerns the innocence of you and the two young masters, Master has not slept for a few days. These days, he has been personally looking for the demonic cultivator who did evil in the Imperial City.”
Yun Ran only realized that she had misunderstood Mo Beiyuan after hearing Thunderbolt’s words.
He did not want to trap her and the children in the Yuan Mansion. Instead, he wanted to protect them from the rumors outside.
He shielded them from the storm outside, but he did not explain a word and let her misunderstand him.
“Where is he? Where is your master now? Take me to him.”
Since this matter involved her and the two children, Yun Ran naturally could not stay out of it and let Mo Beiyuan handle it alone.
