Chapter 46
"Love Flower can you help me hide my breath, I need to see what's going on outside."
If she just continued sleeping then she'd just be meeting the King of Hell soon enough
Dongfang Minghui felt the outside of the carriage, there were at least two or more Great Spiritualists, two Spiritual Masters, and four or five other people.
With just herself as a little Spiritual Master, she definitely couldn't deal with them, she hung her head and found herself in quite a mess, tied up like a dumpling. Peeking out from the curtain of the wagon, she couldn't see anything but walls. Her eyes accidentally caught a glimpse of Bai Lu, and combined with what she had heard while she was unconscious, how could she not know what had happened?
This pest.
She kicked the other person hard.
"Ouch." Bai Lu was knocked unconscious during the argument, and now this kick directly woke her up.
Dongfang Minghui hurriedly tilted her head and closed her eyes, pretending that she didn't do anything.
The carriage curtain was quickly lifted and a head poked in from outside, snapping at Bai Lu.
"Why are you shouting? Do you still want to get beaten up? Don't think that just because you're a woman I won't dare to take care of you, if you scream again I'll make sure you'll never be able to speak."
Bai Lu immediately shut her mouth automatically, showing that she had already tried this tactic before and failed so she was afraid.
The man also took a deliberate look at Dongfang Minghui, seeing that the other person hadn't woken up yet, so he put his mind at ease and returned to his position.
The carriage continued to move forward, Dongfang Minghui was apprehensive, there was a man in the carriage and five strong enemies outside the carriage.
Who the person behind the scenes was, she was still unclear.
"Love Flower, do you think we'll be able to escape this time?" Dongfang Minghui felt her head hurt, since she left the Dongfang family, she was running into constant disasters everywhere.
Like the last time in Death Valley, she couldn't even die from a fall from a high place, it's as if her little life was as stubborn as a cockroach.
"I'll have no problem escaping at least."
Dongfang Minghui was stunned, only then did she realize that she had been disowned by Love Flower, "Love Flower don't be like this, you forgot what I promised you before, Blood Fiend Alliance."
At the mention of Blood Fiend Alliance, Love Flower remembered the counterfeit guy.
"I'll remind you when we get to a place where you can get Toothless to sneak out and get help."
After saying that, Love Flower continued to be silent again.
Dongfang Minghui felt happy hearing that and nodded, "Right."
After about another half an hour or so, Dongfang Minghui felt like she was being carried down.
Then just like throwing a dead pig, the men threw her to the ground like a rice sack, although she winced in pain, Dongfang Minghui gritted her teeth to endure, hmph, she'll remember this when she takes revenge
If Female Protagonist could still find her, she would definitely criticise them then let Female Protagonist take care of them.
Bai Lu was also very unceremoniously thrown to the ground, but she didn't have Dongfang Minghui's patience, "Ouch, you killers should die a death of a thousand cuts."
Dongfang Minghui secretly rolled her eyes, choosing the best moment to open them, hazy and looking as if she didn't know where she was.
"Bai Lu?"
The corner of her mouth curled up into a smile, Bai Lu this kind of person that wanted to harm others deserved to be tied up as well.
After seeing that she was able to still drag the culprit down with her, Dongfang Minghui felt a strange sense of superiority, even though she was also in a passive hostage situation at the moment.
Bai Lu snorted twice, looking at the brilliant smile on Dongfang Minghui's face she gritted her teeth wanting to just jump over and tear her apart.
Unfortunately, her hands and feet were also tied.
"Keep laughing, I'll see how you can laugh later."
Dongfang Minghui laughed because Toothless had escaped just now thanks to Love Flower and was now helping her bite the rope with his newfound baby teeth.
It also kept biting her finger every time, but the little tooth bite didn't hurt, it was just funny.
Her finger teased it gently, "Toothless, you need to go find Seventh sister."
Love Flower saw that it was still playing around so it just stuck out a small leaf from the space ring and gave it a good slap.
"If you keep playing, you'll lose your little life."
Toothless was slapped so hard on the head that when it came to, it probably tell east from west, but it still pouted and moved out just a little bit.
"Bai Lu, did you not think you'd be in this situation? Do you know what it means that Gods can do what they want but humans can't do what they want? You're stupid thinking you could get away scot-free."
In order to cover Toothless' departure, Dongfang Minghui automatically activated her poisonous tongue skills, and she'd figured out that since she couldn't show this woman a piece of her mind with her fists tied she could just piss her off with her mouth.
Too bad.
"If I'd known you were so useless, I would've simply asked for a new team member from the Dean before we left. So stupid, doing all this nonsense, what good has it done? When I tried to even help you you just caused even more trouble pft."
The more Dongfang Minghui kept talking the better she felt. She should have said that earlier and pissed the other party off, rather than being getting caught in this shithole.
"Love Flower, are you sure we're still in the city? Instead of being trafficked off to a ditch somewhere?"
Love Flower was silent.
Bai Lu was angry but no matter how much she squeaked or moaned out noises, it was hard to understand with her swolled face. Dongfang Minghui found her face to be quite funny with it being so red and swollen looking like a pig.
"What are you staring at huh, I'll gouge your eyes out if you keep staring." Dongfang Minghui's small face scrunched and she looked fierce.
Bai Lu glared directly at her face.
"Seeing that you're both arguing quite vigorously, you can both simply starve for another day or two." The door suddenly opened and a tall man walked in, he had a sword on his back and had Spiritual Energy on him, looking at his icy face, Dongfang Minghui guessed he was probably some kind of mercenary or something.
It was likely he was a seasoned warrior or Spiritual Master or even both.
"Hey, who are you and what do you want to do by kidnapping me?" Dongfang Minghui stared, this kidnapping incident simply baffled her.
The man saw that she was very energetic and couldn't help but laugh, his fingers gently hooked Dongfang Minghui's chin and teased, "This mouth is quite talkative, do you want me to seal it up for you?"
Dongfang Minghui opened her mouth to bite him, but he sensed it and quickly withdrew.
"You're quite smart-tongued, we'll let you enjoy these last two days of pleasure."
The man said and gave Dongfang Minghui a look full of meaning and bad intentions.
"What do you mean?" Bai Lu looked at Dongfang Minghui with a nervous face, "What did he mean by that just now?"
Dongfang Minghui rolled her eyes, she didn't want to pay any attention to her, but upholding the principle of not letting her feel good even if she didn't feel good herself, she smiled and explained to her, "It's to let you live for two more days, and after that send you to your death."
Bai Lu was about to go crazy, she looked at Dongfang Minghui with a fierce face, "How can this be!? It's obviously you, they obviously want you"
She didn't even know what Bai Lu was talking about, but it was still a pity to see the proud Bai Lu reduced to this.
"Hopefully Toothless can travel a thousand miles in a day and find Female Protagonist quickly, or we're going to die!"
Dongfang Minghui mused in her head as Love Flower snickered and corrected, "Actually you'd be the only one that's going to die heh."
She looked around and realized that they had actually been thrown into a dilapidated temple.
"Love Flower, you were able to create illusions for the humans before, so why don't we let them fall into the illusion and then sneak away." Dongfang Minghui suggested.
"I can't right now" Love Flower hesitated for a moment before saying.
"Why?"
Dongfang Minghui was befuddled, Love Flower's combat power was very strong, just a single illusion could screw a lot of people over.
But if the other party was unwilling, she wouldn't force it.
After Bai Lu calmed down for a moment, she suddenly lifted her swollen face and said to Dongfang Minghui, "Qian Minghui, let's work together."
"Cooperate?"
Dongfang Minghui looked at her with funny eyes, who would believe her now after the incident before? She shook her head, "Sorry, I don't believe you."
Bai Lu sneaked a glance at the outside and then zombie bounced towards Dongfang Minghui's side.
"Hey, Bai Lu, I'm warning you, stay right where you are or I'll just call someone in."
Even if she knew that Bai Lu was afraid of death, and probably really wanted to cooperate, but how could she trust someone who stabbed her in the back like that?
This sort of virulent woman, she'd just kick her to death later in the middle of the road.
She felt that the most dangerous place was still the safest place, stay here well for some time and pray Toothless' short legs could run a little faster.
Bai Lu saw that she didn't believe her and was anxious, "You don't believe me but can it be that you believe them?"
Dongfang Minghui also nodded her head as if nothing had happened, "I've been captured anyway, I don't plan to escape for now."
Guns you could see are easy to defend against, hidden arrows are hard to defend against, she would like to see who was the one that wanted to kidnap her.
Bai Lu saw her unmoved and was immediately depressed, weeping and sitting on the ground, "I didn't have any ill will towards you, I just wanted to teach you a lesson and scare you. I didn't expect them they didn't keep their word."
Dongfang Minghui's heart softened at the sight of her crying snotty tears, but she still had a very serious face, "Everyone has to pay for what they do, Bai Lu, I really won't work with you."
She wasn't stupid in the head, even with both of them, just two little pharmacists pft they weren't strong enough. If it was a spiritual sage or something, she'd have immediately tried to escape with that person.
Go with Bai Lu and get caught again before she even stepped foot out this door? She might be able to live for a few days if she didn't annoy them, but if she tried that they probably wouldn't let her live for even half a day more right?
Dongfang Minghui was trying to stall for time on this side while on the other side, there were already people searching like crazy in Yundu City.
Due to Situ Hongying's influence, the leading teacher reported the matter to the royal family of the White Moon Empire, Liu Qi even went to the Pharmacy Union with her junior pharmacist badge to ask for help, because the reputation of the Royal Academy was at stake, the Pharmacy Union directly issued a request for help, ordering people from Spiritual Emperor and above to come assist the search.
Li Yunan even used his family's power to search for Dongfang Minghui's whereabouts in the entire Yundu City.
Almost everyone had a piece of drawn-up paper in their hands, and the portrait on it was Dongfang Minghui.
Dongfang Wanyu didn't know about this yet, she deliberately chose a hidden place to release the dark energy she had absorbed, and practiced repeatedly so she had no idea about the recent events.
Her spiritual energy had been extremely unstable lately, and was already on the verge of breaking through, so she sat quietly in order to make her spiritual energy a little more stable before finding the right opportunity to break through.
However, she didn't expect to feel her clothes being torn just after sitting quietly for a moment.
"It's you Ninth Sister's Toothless," Qing Mo woke her up in the sea of souls.
He had a few doubts, but didn't say it directly.
Dongfang Wanyu immediately opened her eyes, a small beast that was supposed to be clean came out of nowhere, its hair and claws were dirty and disfigured, it looked quite pitiful.
"Toothless, where's Ninth Sister?"
Toothless was particularly possessive and would never voluntarily leave Ninth Sister. Even since it was born, the only time it left was that accident in the forbidden area of the Royal Academy.
She wasn't even sure why a newborn beast would be hostile to her, but Toothless did indeed have some animosity towards her. Dongfang Wanyu immediately stood up, she was certain something was wrong with Ninth Sister.
"Toothless, go."
Toothless ran extremely fast and dug everywhere, running wherever there was a shortcut.
Dongfang Wanyu almost lost it a few times, but as she walked she sensed something was wrong.
The place was getting more and more isolated, and there was a temple not far away that looked more like a monastery, with two men guarding it outside and people patrolling the area.
She saw Toothless' entire little body slumped on the ground, moving in small steps and wiggling his little buttocks.
It was considered an attack tactic among the beasts, which meant showing weakness first and giving the enemy a fatal blow when they were caught off guard.
"Good job."
Dongfang Wanyu understood, though she wasn't sure why Toothless was showing such a warning move, but most of the people here were enemies.
"Wanyu, there are five strong people here, just perfect targets for you to practice with." Qing Mo said with confidence.
Two Great Spiritualists, one more half-step to Great Spiritualist, and the remaining two were Spiritual Masters.
If she still had a few scruples before, then now with Qing Mo's confirmation she felt it really was suitable to practice her skills.
"Toothless, you stay right here for now."
Toothless was lying there motionless, people wouldn't even realise it was a living thing if they weren't looking closely.
Dongfang Wanyu pulled out her long whip and jumped on top of the roof, close to the location of the place where the five men were.
"Why did this task even need five of us to deal with? Just two weak dolls, even one person could have handled it. Hmph so annoying. I need to piss in the back keep watch here while I'm gone."
Weak dolls?
It seemed she was right, Ninth Sister was here.
She quietly jumped down the roof a touched down and covered the other person's mouth while he was in the middle of undoing his pants, her long whip shot out from behind and wrapped around his neck.
"N-no."
Dongfang Wanyu whispered, "What are you guarding? Let me guess, two freshmen from the Royal Academy?"
The man tried to struggle.
Dongfang Wanyu added, "How about this, when I ask a question, you nod or shake your head, and when I know what I want to know, I'll let you go, okay?"
The man nodded cautiously, only because the thorns of the Water Thunder Whip were thrusting deeply into his adam's apple, just one small move and it would pierce his neck easily.
"Did you guys capture someone named Qian Wanyu?"
The man pondered a little and immediately nodded his head.
Dongfang Wanyu laughed coldly, but her voice grew softer, "Did you do anything to her?"
The man shuddered in fear and shook his head.
"Very good, thank you, I've decided to leave you intact." Dongfang Wanyu said and simply snapped the man's neck.
"Uh-"
The man's pupils dilated and his hands covered his neck, to the point of death he probably had no idea what he did wrong.
Dongfang Wanyu peeled off his clothes and put them on, fixing them a little so it covered her face, she seemed to have transformed into the man lying dead on the ground.
"Ugh, I say why are you so slow in going to relieve yourself." The person next to him was rude and slapped the other person right on the face.
Dongfang Wanyu flicked her hand to avoid it and chuckled, "I just found a treasure over there, do you want to know about it?"
The other party's voice and appearance, she managed to imitate them so vividly that the other person couldn't tell the difference without examining closely. The person immediately leaned over and smiled, "What treasure, aren't we good buddies? C'mon take me there."
"Yeah, I'll show you"
Walking away later with a wry smile, Wanyu was quite pleased, she had easily managed to take out the two men outside the door.
With three tougher men left, Dongfang Wanyu took the other man's clothes and changed her face walking into the temple. It was divided into a front temple and a back temple, the two men before had just guarded the first entrance and as for the second entrance, a swordsman, had a sword stuck in the ground blocking the path.
"What is it?" There was a scar on the knifeman's face that spanned his entire face diagonally, making his face look particularly horrifying.
Dongfang Wanyu feigned shock and took a small step backwards, "Someone was killed while relieving himself"
The man's eyes widened, "Then what are you doing over here? Why don't you go to hell with him."
After saying that, the big sword was rudely about to greet her.
"Good eye."
Knowing she'd been exposed, Dongfang Wanyu ripped off the human skin mask off her face, threw it to the ground, and her whip lashed out in response.
Toothless kept moving like a turtle, wherever Dongfang Wanyu went, it lagged slightly behind her. Wherever Dongfang Wanyu retreated, he was also a little behind her. It's just that because his clean fur was full of dirt and the colour of soil, no one could tell the difference.
Dongfang Wanyu fought fiercely in mid-air, making so much noise that everyone inside could hear it, but the two men guarding the inner temple did not move.
It wasn't until they saw the other appear before them that they gave a slight reaction.
"You're alone?"
The man who was carrying a sword before stood up and asked curiously.
Dongfang Wanyu's body had been stained with blood, although that swordsman just now was also only a Spiritualist, but he was close to the Great Spiritualist, and he was also a warrior as well as a Spiritual Master, for him, killing people was the norm, the sword had no eye and this sort of person would wound a thousand enemies while injuring eight hundred of the same side. In other words, a reckless style of fighting.
She was certain now that the other party was not a mercenary, but a killer.
The two people outside the door would have been very difficult to deal with if she hadn't been able to sneak attack first.
"People from the Blood Fiend Alliance?" Dongfang Wanyu asked.
She remembered that they shouldn't have had a grudge against the Blood Fiend Alliance, no wait, that time in the Purple Demon Mountain Range, it could be that the Blood Fiend Alliance's people recognized the two of them.
"Wanyu, there's another scenario, they're assassins hired by another employer." The only thing that Qing Mo couldn't figure out was that if they were killers, why not kill the people cleanly, why leave behind a live person?
Of course, he didn't actually dare to mention that in front of Dongfang Wanyu, he always had the illusion that somehow Wanyu cared a lot about Dongfang Minghui.
"You guys who hired you?" Dongfang Wanyu looked at the two men warily.
The other man picked up a sword turns out he was also swordsman, he held pointed to her, "The one you just killed was my brother, so Mu Yang, this one is mine."
The person called Mu Yang smiled wickedly at Dongfang Wanyu, "I'll tell you some exciting news, the employer's request to us is that when whoever comes to save that woman in here arrives, we are to personally torture and kill her in front of whoever comes to save her."
Dongfang Wanyu's pupils immediately dilated and her hand tightened around the Water Thunder Whip, "If you hurt her in any way, I'll make you regret being born to this world."
Mu Yang tossed a light flying kiss at her, "We'll see what happens."
The door was rudely kicked open with a bang.
Bai Lu and Dongfang Minghui were both shocked.
Mu Yang's bloodthirsty smile looked at Dongfang Minghui with a look that was like the excitement that appeared when a hunter was looking for prey.
Dongfang Minghui gulped, good thing the ropes on her hands had already been untied by little Toothless.
Just moments ago, while Female Protagonist was outside talking to them, her Toothless had snuck back in.
"What are you doing?"
Mu Yang tilted his head and looked her up and down, "I really don't understand, how can you be worth such a high price?"
"Hey hey, what do you mean." Clearly hearing derogatory meanings from the other side, Dongfang Minghui was not happy.
What do you mean worth such a high price? She's not cargo.
"Someone offered you a high price for your life. I can give you this one condition, choose which way you want to die."
Dongfang Minghui looked at him like he was an idiot, hadn't she lived long enough? Death was death who the fuck cares how they die?!
"If I gave you a choice of which way to die, what would you choose?" She asked rhetorically.
Mu Yang smiled, Mu Yang had a masculine air about him, and when he smiled it was very sexy. But there was a trace of evil in this sexiness, and one couldn't help but be fascinated by it.
Dongfang Minghui, however, was secretly stalling for as long as she could.
"Wanyu, you have to hold steady, if you show your weakness, the other party will want not only your life, but also your Ninth Sister's life." Qing Mo felt that Dongfang Wanyu was a bit anxious as he saw Mu Yang walk into the temple just like that.
"Good."
Dongfang Minghui immediately started jumping backwards when she saw the other party move step by step towards her.
"Brother, how about this, how many gold coins did that person give you to buy my life, I'll pay you double the price, okay?"
Mu Yang shook his head, "Our Blood Fiend Alliance, once we take up a contract we never voluntarily retreat, unless that person withdraws the order."
Dongfang Minghui listened, backing away as she negotiated, "How about this, how about you tell me that person's name and I'll go talk to them?"
"Haha, I've never seen someone as interesting as you, to be honest, I'm suddenly a bit reluctant to kill you."
With that said, Mu Yang fished with one hand and caught Dongfang Minghui in his arms.
"Hey, didn't you just say that you were reluctant to kill me? What are you doing now?" Dongfang Minghui really wanted to find something lethal from her space ring to knock on the other person's head.
Mu Yang carried her like a chicken to the door and said to Dongfang Wanyu, "Hey, how would you like to see her die?"
Dongfang Wanyu was slashed right on her back by the opponent's large sword due to this distraction, and if she didn't immediately dodge, half of her body would have been sliced open by that sword.
"Seventh sister."
Dongfang Minghui stomped her foot in a hurry, she had never seen Female Protagonist in such a mess, covered in blood, it was simply frightening to see her this way. She couldn't care less and said loudly, "Leave this place, I'll be fine."
She stomped on Mu Yang, "You're too despicable."
Mu Yang spread his hands, "This is following the request of my employer, but I'm more curious as to why the other woman would want to use such a cruel method to take care of you, did you offend her somewhere?"
Dongfang Minghui snorted, her fingers felt around in her jade belt and suddenly touched a hidden bump in the band.
She remembered Seventh Sister had told her that there were many silver needles in it, and it wouldn't be a problem to use to save her life in a critical time.
"It really surprises me to see your sisterly love, but I've already chosen a way for you to die."
Mu Yang directly drew his sword, but the moment he drew it, he suddenly felt as if something had slipped into his body.
Then his body couldn't move.
Dongfang Minghui prevented her spiritual power from being too strong and shot out some more silver needles.
She used her spiritual power to make the three silver needles fly, "Go."
The silver needles shot off in the direction she was pointing.
"Seventh sister, get out of the way."
Dongfang Wanyu saw her silver needles and immediately dodged out of the way, all three silver needles just happened to go into the swordsman's body.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Dongfang Wanyu killed the opponent straight away.
As soon as she landed on the ground, she smiled and looked up to see Mu Yang, who was standing behind Dongfang Minghui, raise the corners of his mouth by one degree, as he bobbed his head left and right. Dongfang Minghui who was standing in front of him was completely unaware of him.
"Ninth Sister."
She watched as the other man raised his sword, took a half step back with his feet, and then a straight stab. Dongfang Wanyu watched as this oblivious Dongfang Minghui still smiled stupidly at her.
She took a quick step and pulled her aside, throwing her behind her back.
Pfft.
Dongfang Minghui heard two sounds as the sword pierced into flesh and then pulled out quickly.
Mu Yang's sword was very fast, he was an expert in the Blood Fiend Alliance. Every time he killed someone he had a habit of only using one sword strike, regardless of whether he succeeded or failed, he would stop.
Dongfang Wanyu sprayed a mouthful of blood directly onto her face, and Dongfang Minghui's slightly parted lips seemed to taste a warm and fishy sweet taste.
"Seventh sister."
The long whip in Dongfang Wanyu's hand flung towards Mu Yang, but Mu Yang easily avoided it.
"You're the toughest woman I've ever seen, but you were able to snatch someone from my hands. Very well, I'll remember you."
Before Mu Yang left, he winked at Dongfang Minghui again, smiling meaningfully.
Dongfang Minghui's reaction was half a beat slower, waiting until Mu Yang was gone before she was shocked to realize what had just happened.
The other party was so close to killing her! For real!
She knew that if the Female Protagonist hadn't saved her, she'd be in the netherworld right now.
"Seventh sister, don't scare me."
She touched her wound, which had pierced right through her lung, and there was blood everywhere on her hands, she felt like the Female Protagonist was bleeding out and might die!
Dongfang Wanyu reached out and touched her small face, gently wiping the blood off her face.
"Ninth Sister."
Dongfang Wanyu thought that her life would in danger, she didn't think that the assassins of the Blood Fiend Alliance were so difficult to deal with.
She was just thinking about what Ninth Sister would do if she couldn't kill Mu Yang. She hadn't expected the other party to give up of their own accord.
Dongfang Minghui suddenly remembered that there was still a Tonic Yuan Pill in her space that Lu Xing had given her, "Seventh sister, I have pills."
She shivered her hands several times before finding the small porcelain vial from those bottles and jars.
"Tonic Yuan Pill. Lu Xing said that one pill is enough for any serious injury, so you should eat it."
She was going to use it for research, but she didn't expect it to be used on Female Protagonist.
Dongfang Wanyu didn't refuse, she was afraid that someone else would come later, if she fell down here, who would protect this foolish fellow?
Dongfang Minghui wiped the blood from her face and still couldn't believe that the Female Protagonist would risk her life to save her.
Her head was full of questions why? Why? Why?
She kept to the side and watched as the Female Protagonist closed her eyes and practised, it took about four hours.
Dongfang Minghui sat directly inside the temple and watched Bai Lu screaming there, but Bai Lu's voice was so shrill that she simply took a piece of cloth and gagged her directly.
It was still thrilling to think back on it now, but if it wasn't for Seventh Sister, she would have really died.
Blood Fiend Alliance, but she had clearly heard the other party say their lady last time, could it be that the group of people who were out there were different from them?
Dongfang Minghui picked up a branch in boredom and wrote Blood Fiend Alliance, as well as our lady on the side.
"Is it true that they had kidnapped her just to torture her, as Mu Yang said?"
Dongfang Minghui couldn't guess and simply didn't think about it, as soon as she looked up she saw that Bai Lu was leaning on a pillar next to her. She was actually asleep, her anger immediately blew up and she kicked her twice with her foot lightly.
"Wake up, what are you sleeping for?"
Bai Lu's tense emotions relaxed after the group had left, so she felt tired and achy everywhere.
"Bai Lu, do you want me to let you go?" Dongfang Minghui looked at her with a smiling face.
Bai Lu nodded straight, she would never fight this person again, the worst that could happen was that she would just find a random village to become a pharmacist and never go back to the Royal Academy again
Although that place was her dream place, but, after experiencing so many things, she seemed to have gotten over it. Nothing was more important than her little life!
Dongfang Minghui saw her sad look and said, "It's not impossible to let you go, but you have to answer a few questions first."
Bai Lu nodded, the meaning was clear, go ahead and ask.
"The first one I would like to ask is, who exactly wanted to kidnap me, is it Mu Yang and the five of them?"
Bai Lu nodded and shook her head.
Dongfang Minghui simply removed the cloth from her mouth, "You give me a good explanation, and when I'm satisfied, I'll let you go."
Bai Lu had the strength to say, "It's not the same people, they're just people who took the request."
She was also scared, she had watched these five people, Mu Yang especially, kill with her own eyes, otherwise how could she have been so docile.
"I really didn't mean to tie you up, I was so angry that you wouldn't let me go to the match, I went to look for Liu Qi, but she said she was coming to look for you, so I ran out. Then I met a very strange woman, she asked me if I wanted to get back at you. I was still full of anger so I asked her how to get back at you."
What followed was a series of lies plus exploitation. Dongfang Minghui nodded thoughtfully.
"You mean that the person who tried to kidnap me and to kill me is among our group of freshmen?"
Dongfang Wanyu woke up just in time to hear that, she stood up and checked her injuries, feeling as if she was in even better spirits than before.
"Bring her back."
Dongfang Wanyu directly grabbed Bai Lu and picked her whole body up, when she thought about how the other party had actually planned to use a group of outsiders just to get back at her Ninth Sister, she was so angry she wanted to kill the person immediately.
Bai Lu smiled miserably, "I've said all that I need to say, but you should let me live, I'll be able to identify who that person is."
Dongfang Minghui also didn't approve of the Female Protagonist killing Bai Lu, she was narrow-minded and calculating, and had even done such a thing, but she was not guilty enough to die. After all, she was also used as well.
"Seventh sister, since she's from the Pharmacist's Academy, I think it's best to leave it to the Headmaster to deal with. There's your competition soon, I don't want you to be distracted anymore."
Dongfang Minghui was scared to death just now, if it was because she had messed up the whole scenario and the Female Protagonist couldn't get first place, how would she receive the Spiritual Englightenment? How would she breakthrough? Plus what would happen next?
This one wrong step and everything goes wrong, she almost became the biggest sinner of this world.
Dongfang Wanyu touched her little head and said, "Let's go, I'm sure they're all anxious that you've been missing for a day."
"Good."
Dongfang Minghui let out a sigh of relief, she was finally completely over this event, ever since she entered this world, she had no sense of belonging to this place, all she had done was to save her one little life, because she didn't want to die yet.
For all that has happened in the past, she stood as an outsider to everything, it felt like nothing really had anything to do with her, she couldn't make any friends and be as cheerful as she wanted to be.
Every step is a step forward on a set track, if you make one wrong step, you have to break it all to go back.
Now, Dongfang Minghui laughed.
"Seventh sister, I'm suddenly a little homesick."
Dongfang Wanyu looked up at her with a smile in her eyes, "After being out for two years, we should go back sometime."
"Mmhmm."
When the three of them got back, they realized that the city was full of Dongfang Minghui's picture, and Dongfang Minghui folded one of them up and put it into her space ring.
"I didn't expect to be missing for a day, but I'm sorry for making you guys so worried."
Dongfang Minghui gave them a grateful glance, in which Nan Nan and Liu Qi had red eyes, as well as Mu Sheng and Lu Xing and the others.
It was a wonderful feeling to be missed, and the time she was held hostage always made her wonder who the hell she was and how important was she to other people?
Dongfang Minghui?
It seems to be both, although she wasn't the real Dongfang Minghui, but if she dies, would anyone cry for her?
When she goes missing would they do everything they can to save her?
She asked herself many times until she felt Seventh Sister's warm blood.
"Seventh sister, you practice well, I will try my best to identify the ingredients of the potion you gave me in these two days."
Dongfang Minghui said with a smiling face.
With the tonic pills gone and some froth leftover, she proceeded with the identification of the ingredients that Nan Nan had analyzed earlier.
"Strange, how come the same medicinal plants appears on both of these pills? "Dongfang Minghui was curious.
She finally decided to go and ask Nan Nan for clarification, after all, he was the real alchemist and she was just a pharmacist, so she would inevitably be biased when analyzing the pills.
"Minghui, why don't you rest?" Nan Nan's face was also a little haggard, the person had disappeared under her nose, it would be hard for her to explain to her brother when she returned. Besides, she was also partly to blame for this, if she had been a little more attentive on that day, how could there be anything that could happen? While the other person had been missing, she hadn't had a single break trying to find her.
"Nan Nan, didn't I ask you to help me analyze two pills before, I just wanted to ask you why would these two pills have a common medicinal plant composition, was I wrong in my judgment?" Dongfang Minghui scratched her head puzzled, the ingredients of the two pills were directly opposite, yet there was a common medicinal plant among them, how could she not be confused.
"You didn't misjudge, I was just about to mention it to you one day, and you disappeared." Nan Nan laughed bitterly, "I identified the same result as you, there is a particular medicinal plant in common, as to what exactly it is, I'll have to go back to the academy and look up the information to tell you."
Dongfang Minghui was slightly relieved to hear an affirmative answer, "Okay, thanks."
"Do you still need me to continue to help you identify it?"
"Not for now, I want to research it myself."
Dongfang Minghui eventually walked out, Seventh sister trusted her so much to give her these pills, this Mixed Heaven Pill seemed to be a suppressing potion for Dark Spiritual energy, it wouldn't do to take too her time ah.
"It's water from a spirit spring."
Love Flower suddenly mentioned.
"Love Flower, you mean that the common point on both pills is that they both use water from a spirit spring, but what is this spirit spring?"
"You can ask that friend of yours, the one from the elves, about the spirit springs and the elves."
Love Flower was silent after saying that.
Dongfang Minghui was even more confused by what it said, "Hey, hey, Love Flower, don't play dead, where did you run off to before the Blood Fiend Alliance's killer showed up?"
She kept talking to herself but Love Flower didn't utter any more words.
She felt as if the other party had a really cunning mind, a medicinal plant with such a cunning mind was simply rarely seen under heaven. This world was way too weird, she didn't really understand it
She thought about when Love Flower's problems seemed to have started, seems when she brought up the illusion, Love Flower didn't want to talk about it.
Could it be that the creation of the illusion required a price to be paid by Love Flower?
