Chapter 397: Chapter 397: Master Mu Arrives

Wan Qing now regretted it was too late.

She gritted her teeth, got up, and took out the medical kit, "Let’s deal with the wounds first; we’ll talk when Master Mu arrives."

Fu Yuxing nodded, sat down by the bed, and let Wan Qing treat his wounds as best as she could.

Elsewhere.

In the night.

An old man dressed in traditional Tang attire, holding a string of prayer beads, walked out of an alley and solemnly got into a car, informing the driver of the Fu Family’s address.

Once in the car, his expression was still not good; he kept fiddling with the prayer beads in his hands, concealing his unease.

He was Master Mu.

Receiving Fu Yuxing’s phone call, he had felt that something wasn’t quite right.

His formations, although not exquisitely matchless, were definitely adequate in today’s world.

In theory, there shouldn’t have been any trouble.

But Fu Yuxing’s sudden call couldn’t have been without reason.

Could it be that he had made a slight oversight, letting Liao Qianqian find an opportunity to escape?

No matter how Master Mu thought about it, he couldn’t imagine that anyone in the world could break his formation.

Moreover, the Fu Family had not invited anyone else to examine it, so there was no chance that someone from the Xuanmen had disrupted his own formation.

After much thought, the only possibility he could imagine was...

That there had been a lapse when he set up the formation.

To the extent that Liao Qianqian might have had a chance to escape.

With this thought, Master Mu’s face darkened as he hurried to the Fu Family’s place in the car.

As soon as he stepped out of the car at the Fu Family’s doorstep, Master Mu’s complexion changed.

Being close to the Fu Family home, he immediately sensed the pervasive yin energy within it and the marks of the broken formation.

Master Mu’s expression grew even more troubled as he promptly rang the doorbell.

Inside the Fu Family home, everyone else was dining.

Wan Qing, accompanied by a properly taken care of Fu Yuxing, came downstairs, only to hear the doorbell ring.

As the nanny was about to say, "I’ll go open the door,"

"There’s no need," Wan Qing immediately interrupted, "I’ll open the door myself."

Having said that, she gave Fu Yuxing a meaningful glance, and they both went out to open the door.

Jiangli caught a glimpse of their actions, looking out the window.

There was a large French window in the dining room, offering a clear view of everything outside in the courtyard.

As Wan Qing and Fu Yuxing left the house, they headed straight for the main gate, both visibly tense.

When Wan Qing opened the door, she saw Master Mu standing there.

"Master Mu, you’ve finally arrived!"

Seeing Master Mu, Fu Yuxing rushed over as if he had seen a savior, nearly overcome with tears of joy.

Before Master Mu could speak, he noticed the yin energy clinging to Fu Yuxing and the treated wounds; his face grew darker, "Did Liao Qianqian really come here?"

The look of relief on Fu Yuxing’s face disappeared instantly as he nodded heavily, "Yes, she said she wanted to kill me for revenge. Luckily, my sister came knocking at the door, and she ran away."

Master Mu suddenly felt that something was amiss, frowning, "She wanted to kill you, yet she gave up because Miss Fu knocked on the door?"

Fu Yuxing nodded, puzzled, "Is there something wrong?"

Master Mu found it all very strange.

If Liao Qianqian was an evil ghost and really wanted to take revenge on Fu Yuxing, why would she fear being discovered?

If she hadn’t wanted to give up, she could have killed Fu Yuxing right then and there, and even Fu Xinyue as well.

Why did she suddenly give up upon hearing Fu Xinyue knocking on the door?

Master Mu had an intuition that something had gone wrong.

But he couldn’t quite put his finger on it just then.

"Master Mu, let’s go inside and talk," Wan Qing glanced at the French window leading to the dining room, not wanting others to notice their anomaly, and whispered, "We’ll have to trouble you with this matter."
