Marry the Demon Sect Girl with No Bride Price-Chapter 193: Is Mo Xiaolan Underground?
"Xiaolan?!"
In the dungeon, the female prisoners were stunned, looking incredulously at the figure as graceful as an orchid.
The two jailers were taken aback, then angrily shouted, "Insolence!"
"Who do you think you are, Housekeeper Lu picks people; it’s not your place to speak!"
"Move aside!"
Despite the reprimand, Mo Xiaolan still stood at the cell door, with her arms spread wide open, unmoving.
Housekeeper Lu’s expression turned cold, and a jailer beside him understood and grabbed a God-piercing Whip, swinging it at Mo Xiaolan.
Snap!
The long whip with sharp barbs struck Mo Xiaolan’s body, causing blood to splatter, and Mo Xiaolan trembled slightly yet still blocked the cell with her arms open.
The jailer snorted coldly, swinging the whip like the wind.
Snap! Snap! Snap!
The sound of whipping continuously echoed through the dungeon, with blood splattering all around. The God-piercing Whip was stained red with Mo Xiaolan’s blood.
But Mo Xiaolan still stood straight, her face pale, her voice resolute:
"You cannot take the child away."
"Courting death!"
The two jailers each grabbed a God-piercing Whip, and suddenly three whips struck Mo Xiaolan simultaneously!
Mo Xiaolan’s body trembled violently, her teeth clenched tightly, her face growing paler, yet still, she did not move aside.
The blood drawn from her by the three whips increased, the hot blood even splashing on the stunned faces of the female prisoners nearby.
A female prisoner seemed to be awakened by the searing blood, suddenly standing up and joining Mo Xiaolan.
"Xiaolan, I’ll stand with you!"
The other female prisoners hesitated for a moment before another stood up to join Mo Xiaolan in blocking the cell.
"I’ll join you too!"
"And me!"
"And me too!"
Soon, more than ten female prisoners stood up one after another, joining Mo Xiaolan, glaring angrily at the three jailers holding the God-piercing Whips.
"Today, you shall not take the child away!"
"You’re seeking death!" The three jailers were furious, each drawing a long knife, ready to act when Housekeeper Lu finally spoke:
"Enough."
He walked to the cell door, looking Mo Xiaolan up and down, twirling his beard, and chuckled:
"The Patriarch instructed to keep those of your beauty for last. Don’t rush; your turn will come soon."
Finishing, he looked at the more than ten female prisoners standing alongside Mo Xiaolan, satisfied:
"Your essence is intact, making you excellent furnaces, suitable for the Patriarch’s most crucial breakthrough, today... it will be you."
Housekeeper Lu’s finger suddenly pointed to a female prisoner hiding in the corner.
She was about eighteen years old, a virgin, one of the first to be captured, and almost lifeless due to the torture endured.
The two jailers approached, lifting her and escorting her from the cell with Yue Ying.
Only then did Mo Xiaolan and the others move aside, with Li Yuan looking back gratefully at Mo Xiaolan:
"Xiaolan, my husband is Luo Wenzhi, living at the ninth house on Changming Street in Xingluo Town. If you manage to escape, please give the Yulan to my husband, and I will repay your kindness... in my next life!"
"Sister Yue Ying, if I don’t die, I will surely take the child out!"
Mo Xiaolan, holding a baby girl, nodded in agreement.
"Child, mommy is leaving, you... you must live well."
Yue Ying took one last look at her daughter, forced a smile, and then was taken away by Housekeeper Lu.
Once Housekeeper Lu led the two women away, Mo Xiaolan collapsed onto the ground, still holding the baby girl tightly.
Underneath her, the ground was stained red with her blood.
"Xiaolan!"
"Xiaolan is bleeding so much! Hey, hurry, get some medicine, she’s going to die!"
"Xiaolan, wake up!"
...
...
"My dear, can’t you find her?"
Yunling Town.
Qinhe Garden.
A large Array was drawn within the garden, its patterns intricate, indicating the great effort poured into creating it.
It also signified that this Array was no ordinary artifact.
At this moment, a "Divine Movement Talisman" was placed at the center of the Array, which emitted brilliant light that coalesced into a light curtain.
The Spirit Seeking Array required an item bearing the target’s aura to be placed inside.
Furthermore, the searcher’s cultivation must reach Foundation Establishment, and they must enter the Array with an Array Master to activate spiritual power for it to function.
The "Spirit Seeking Array" was quite complex, and its use was demanding, which is why it was not widely known.
In the Eastern Cultivation Region, only a few people in the Three Great Sects and several Demon Sects could craft it.
Currently, Qin Gengyun and Qiu Zhihe each stood at one corner of the Array, with a "Divine Movement Talisman" made by Mo Xiaolan placed in the center.
Following Qiu Zhihe’s instructions, Qin Gengyun merged his spiritual power with hers and the "Divine Movement Talisman," circling the Spirit Seeking Array to form a light curtain in the air that could reveal the target’s location.
However, when Qin Gengyun looked up, Mo Xiaolan was nowhere to be seen in the light curtain.
The scene displayed was an unfamiliar mansion, with a wall at the center.
"Miss, whenever we’ve used the Spirit Seeking Array before, even if something obscured the target, the center would still show their location. Why are we just seeing a wall now?"
Not only was Qin Gengyun puzzled, but even Liu Su, who was watching with her chin in her hand, couldn’t help but ask.
Could it be that the Saintess didn’t want her husband to find that Mo Xiaolan and intentionally meddled?
It makes sense; after all, Mo Xiaolan was the husband’s childhood sweetheart, while the Saintess came from above, so naturally, she should be wary of rekindling old flames.
Liu Su was mulling this over when Qiu Zhihe said, "Susu, add two more pieces of Spirit Marrow."
"Oh." Liu Su responded, picking up two pieces of Spirit Marrow and placing them into the Array, causing them to shatter as spiritual energy seeped into the complex patterns.
Qiu Zhihe, her right hand forming a sign, swiftly added several more complex patterns within the Array.
Her face grew pale, and she panted slightly, looking up at the air. The scene in the light curtain moved, quickly surveying the entire mansion.
Finally, it came to rest in front of two imposing vermilion doors, where the three saw the plaque hanging high above, displaying two large characters—
Chang Mansion.
Then the frame swiftly moved again, diminishing the mansion and gradually revealing the surrounding aerial view of the entire small town.
It then came to a town monument, inscribed with three characters:
Xingluo Town.
"Xingluo Town, Chang Family?!" 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
Liu Su exclaimed, "Could Mo Xiaolan be at the Chang Family?!"
She blinked, finding it hard to believe, "But didn’t Mo Xiaolan say to Landlord Lin she was going to Thunder Sword City? Why did she end up in Xingluo Town, at the Chang Family mansion?"
"Miss, could it be that the Spirit Seeking Array malfunctioned?"
Qin Gengyun looked at Qiu Zhihe, "My dear, what is happening?"
He had just reached Foundation Establishment, thinking he’d soon find Mo Xiaolan’s whereabouts, yet he was confronted with this situation instead.
"Calm down, don’t let your spiritual power riot," Qiu Zhihe said calmly, and Qin Gengyun hurriedly focused on maintaining the operation of his spiritual power.
Qiu Zhihe moved her jade fingers again, giving a light shout: "Spirit Seeking Fixation, go!"
The scene in the light curtain swiftly changed again, quickly returning to the Chang Mansion, to the courtyard by the wall.
This time the scene moved downward, seemingly trying to burrow underground along the wall, but soon the screen turned black, no longer changing.
It seemed to encounter some hindrance.
Qiu Zhihe closed her eyes, her spiritual power surging. After a while, she finally opened her eyes, her face pale, her voice icy:
"Mo Xiaolan is under the Chang Mansion. Her aura is unstable, indicating she’s severely injured."
