The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl

Chapter 1347: Chapter 1341

Mu Chen thought it over again and again, and still felt it was safer to leave Xin Lin here. At least with Nolan Zhuyun by her side, he could keep an eye on her.

"Master Mu, have you really thought this through? You really want to leave me here? What if I slip up again and stir up some more trouble..."

Xin Lin said awkwardly.

"Hold on, you’d better come with me to see the Old Family Master."

As soon as Mu Chen heard himself, he immediately changed his mind; it was more reassuring to watch over her himself.

"Mu San, you’re going to see the Family Head, what are you bringing an outsider for?"

Second Madam Mu’s eyes were red as she glared at Murong Ziyue and Xin Lin.

She had already heard from the various young masters and ladies that the one who laid hands on Mu Feng was Xin Lin.

An outsider actually dared to act so recklessly in Fengdong.

"Second Aunt, she’s my student. This time she came to Fengdong to help out."

Mu Chen thought for a moment and casually made up an excuse.

"Mu San, the older you get, the more you’re regressing. Since when has our Fengdong needed outsiders’ help?"

Second Madam Mu sneered.

"Once we see the Family Head, everything will be clear."

Mu Chen waved his hand, and the few of them passed through several corridors.

Inside the East Court, there were quite a lot of corridors, and each one looked very similar. Xin Lin followed Mu Chen for a quarter of an hour and only felt the paths around them were intricate and complex, clearly arranged with some care.

In many corners and dark spots, she noticed gleams of cold light. It seemed that without someone leading the way, once you entered the East Court it would be very hard to walk out alive.

They arrived in front of an imposing courtyard. The courtyard was perfectly square, and there were no stone carvings or the like at the entrance; outside the gate stood only eight tall guards.

The guards were covered head to toe in pitch-black armor, their faces also tightly concealed.

As soon as Xin Lin arrived, her gaze was drawn to these special towering guards.

"Ghost soldiers."

Xin Lin only glanced a few times at those suits of armor and already noticed something.

These guards were different from the other guards inside the East Court, and different from the Corpse Soldiers outside.

They were actually ghost soldiers.

Similar to those ghost soldiers previously at Chu Mansion, none of them had the aura of living people on them, and their strength was not weak.

Xin Lin could be sure that in life, these people’s cultivation definitely would not have been below the Blood Realm.

Although she didn’t exactly understand ghost soldiers, because of Gui Hu, Xin Lin knew a bit about them.

Ghost soldiers and Corpse Soldiers were different.

Those Corpse Soldiers outside were all refined using corpses.

To refine a corpse, as long as the body was intact and the time of death had not exceeded 24 hours, it would do. They could be ordinary people or Martial Artists, but most of them wouldn’t have very high cultivation.

As for ghost soldiers, they had to be Martial Artists with extremely strong blood and qi in life to be refined, and the higher the cultivation, the harder the refining.

Using Martial Artists at the Blood Realm as ghost soldiers, the difficulty could be imagined. It showed that this Old Family Master of Fengdong indeed had some skills.

"Xin Lin, you actually didn’t have to come with me."

Murong Ziyue said in a low voice.

She also knew Xin Lin had done this because she was worried about her.

"It’s fine. I happened to want to meet this Old Family Master of Fengdong too. I heard he can command a hundred ghosts under Heaven."

Xin Lin was very curious whether this Old Family Master, if he encountered Gui Hu, could Control the Arrogant Corpse. Eight or nine times out of ten, he wouldn’t be able to.

"Family Head, Fifth and Ziyue had a bit of a conflict. Fifth was bitten back by a little ghost."

At the entrance of the courtyard, Mu Chen bowed and stood to the side.

That Second Madam who had been making a scene also became very docile.

Murong Ziyue stood there without speaking, only Mu Feng was still there sobbing and wailing.
