Chapter 037: Devil
The person he wanted was already in his hands. Huang Shaotang glanced at Xu Lai and turned to walk out of the house. As for Wu Qingyang and Pei Ji, he didn't even pay attention to them.
Seeing that their heads had left, Cai Fei and Liao Huaixian immediately led their men to escort Pei Xueyi out.
In just a moment, the group of people retreated completely, as if they had never been there.
"Let's go too." Xu Lai greeted Gao Xiang and Sun Muyu, then walked out leisurely.
Gao Xiang and Sun Muyu woke up as if from a dream and hurriedly followed. Just as they reached the door, they heard a crackling sound from inside. Looking back, they saw that the old man Pei Ji had a livid face and was holding a half-broken cane in his hand. It seemed that he had broken the cane in a rage.
The two men were shocked and quickly took a few steps and fled from the house to prevent the old man from getting upset and directly recruiting people to fight with them.
It was not until he was several hundred meters away from the Pei family that Gao Xiang could not help but burst into laughter.
"What the hell are you laughing at!" Sun Muyu said unhappily.
"Hehehe... I'm laughing at that old guy Pei Ji, haha..." Gao Xiang couldn't help laughing.
"What are you laughing at? We worked in vain this time." Sun Muyu said sullenly. He had worked so hard to avenge Zhao Wenjun, but he didn't expect that after working for most of the night and almost losing his life, he ended up with such a result.
Not only has the real murderer not been found, but Pei Xueyi has also been taken away. How can we take revenge?
Gao Xiang thought so too, stopped laughing, and patted his brother on the shoulder to comfort him. In fact, he also understood Sun Muyu's thoughts, and his brother actually had some complaints about the great god.
If they had not listened to the great god's advice tonight and had sneaked in to arrest Pei Xueyi directly, things might not have been so complicated, and perhaps the murderer who killed Zhao Wenjun would have been found out long ago.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Xu say, "Everyone has worked hard. Go back and have a good rest. We have gained a lot tonight."
Gao Xiang and Sun Muyu were stunned.
Gain? What did they gain?
"If we hadn't caused this incident, how could we see the Pei family so clearly?" Xu Lai seemed to know what they were thinking and spoke as they walked.
The two of them thought about it carefully and it made sense. If they hadn't caused such a scene tonight, how could they have led Pei Ji out? How would they have known that Master Qingyang was also in Pei's house, and seemed to have a very close relationship with Pei Ji? Didn't they hear him calling Pei Xueyi "Xue Yi" all the time?
On the other hand, how did Pei Xueyi know the Yin-Yang Ghost Technique? Who taught him?
Gao Xiang and Sun Muyu were obsessed with magic and were extremely interested in everything related . They had never heard of where Pei Xueyi had gone to become a disciple.
In my impression, Pei Xueyi is an extremely solitary person, nothing special about him otherwise.
"Could it be Wu Qingyang?" Sun Muyu shouted.
"Are you overthinking it?" Gao Xiang disagreed. Wu Qingyang was almost as famous as his master. He had many disciples and students under him, but they never knew any Yin-Yang or ghost magic.
"Oh, if only we could capture Pei Xueyi and pry open his mouth, then everything would be clear!" Sun Muyu was still a little worried about this.
I only heard Xu Lai say: "I'm afraid it's not that easy . There's something wrong with Pei Xueyi."
The two were surprised: "What's the problem?"
Xu Lai said: "Did you notice that Pei Xueyi knew we were here, but he didn't hide and came out to defend his sister."
"Maybe it's because this kid thinks we can't recognize him, so he's so fearless." Sun Muyu said.
"Did you notice that this guy didn't show any intention of resisting from beginning to end and just let others do whatever they wanted?" Xu said.
The two of them recalled that this was indeed a very strange thing. Ever since the three of them arrived, Pei Xueyi had not shown any resistance except for a few arguments with them.
Even when Sun Muyu used the Yuyang Seal and the people from Section 9 came forward to capture him, he did not have any intense reaction.
This is definitely unreasonable. If they were in Pei Xueyi's shoes, as a master of Yin-Yang and ghost arts, there is no way he would surrender like this and hand over his life to others.
But Pei Xueyi is a weird kid, who knows what he is thinking .
"It's okay. Pei Xueyi was arrested and taken to the ninth department. We can find out what happened." Xu said.
When this was mentioned, Gao Xiang immediately approached and asked, "Master, how come you have had dealings with Section 9?"
"We have some friendship, I guess." Xu Lai said with a smile.
"Oh? How did the master get involved with them?" Gao Xiang gossiped. If he remembered correctly, the master had only been in Jiangning for a few days, so how did he get involved with the Ninth Section, which even they didn't know much about.
"We got to know each other after they took us back and questioned us once," said Xu.
Gao Xiang and Sun Muyu were shocked. So this is how friendship came about!
"Master, did you do anything to Pei Xueyi? Why did he suddenly become so evil?" Gao Xiang had been puzzled about this matter for a long time, and only now did he have the chance to ask.
But Xu said, "He didn't do anything. He was just pointed out by Sanyang when he was changing his face. The ghost energy was stuck in his body, and it became like this when the Yuyang Seal was activated."
Gao Xiang suddenly understood: "So that means that is not the evil flower gathering at all?"
"Well, no, it just looks a bit similar." Xu said.
Gao Xiang and Sun Muyu nodded repeatedly after hearing this. They learned something new this time.
The three of them were talking, and soon they returned to Sun Muyu's house.
Although they had heard from the master that Kang Lu was fine and was placed in the upstairs bedroom by him, they were still a little worried. After all, the three of them had gone to Pei's house, and Kang Lu was the only one left in the building. What if a bad guy got in?
Seeing that the door was not even closed, Sun Muyu quickly ran upstairs.
"Master, let's go up and take a look first!" Gao Xiang shouted to Xu Lai and hurriedly followed.
When he rushed to the second floor, he saw that the door of a bedroom was open. Sun Muyu had just entered. From this angle, he could just see Kang Lu lying on the bed.
Gao Xiang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and asked, "Is Kang Lu okay?" But Sun Muyu inside didn't respond.
At first he thought that Sun Muyu didn't hear it, but after watching for a while, he realized something was wrong. After Sun Muyu entered the room, he didn't go to see Kang Lu immediately. Instead, he stood there looking around, and he didn't know what he was doing.
"What are you doing?" Gao Xiang shouted into the house, but Sun Muyu didn't respond.
"Mu Yu!" Gao Xiang shouted again. He had already walked to the door at this time. The shouting was so loud that it was impossible for people in the room not to hear it. But the strange thing was that Sun Mu Yu still had no response. Instead, he walked around the room, and no one knew what he was doing.
Gao Xiang's heart suddenly hung in his throat, wondering if he had gone insane from the stress of the night?
He quickly walked into the house, reached out to pat Sun Muyu's shoulder, trying to wake him up, but at this moment, he suddenly discovered that Sun Muyu was missing.
To be more precise, not only Sun Muyu was missing, but even Kang Lu on the bed was missing!
I turned around and looked around, only to see an empty room. Apart from myself, there was no one else in sight.
What's going on? Is it me who is possessed by the devil?
Gao Xiang was startled and hurried towards the door. But after taking two steps, he suddenly found that the door that was so close to suddenly disappeared.
He quickly turned around and saw that the door was behind him!
Cold sweat streamed down Gao Xiang's forehead. He calmed himself down and hurried towards the door. But when he was about to step out of the door, the door disappeared and was replaced by a wall.
When he looked back again, the door was still behind him!
"Great God! Great God!" Gao Xiang had only one thought at this time, which was to call Xu Lai desperately.
In this situation, either he himself was possessed by the devil, or the room was possessed by the devil. Regardless of the former or the latter, there was a big problem. The best choice at this time was to quickly call Xu Lai over.
But after shouting for a long time, he felt that his voice was almost hoarse, but still did not hear any response. Not only did the master not come, even Sun Muyu was missing!
