The Cangyuan Marquis was stunned for a while before he reacted.
The Earth Corpse Pill that should have been swallowed by Cang Yinyue had actually already entered his own mouth.
Now it was his turn to be filled with terror, utterly horrified.
But at this moment, all the meridians and acupoints throughout his body were sealed, and he couldn't move at all. He couldn't circulate even a trace of true qi.
He could only watch helplessly as the Earth Corpse Pill dissolved upon entering his mouth, turning into an extremely cold corpse water that flowed into his abdomen.
The Cangyuan Marquis was filled with shock and rage in his heart, not knowing who had actually ambushed him at this critical moment.
At this time, a mocking voice rang out behind him, "You've been cuckolded, yet you still won't take revenge yourself. What exactly are you thinking?"
Hearing this, Cang Yinyue's gaze shifted. She broke free from the Cangyuan Marquis's grip and tilted her head to look behind him, "It's you!"
She never expected in any way that Li Musheng would appear here, and moreover, save her at this critical juncture.
"Miss Cang, this time you owe me a huge favor. Otherwise, you would have been badly tricked by this father of yours."
Li Musheng walked out from behind. He glanced at the current Cangyuan Marquis with a face full of disgust, "Look at this, the smell is way too foul!"
After swallowing the Earth Corpse Pill, the Cangyuan Marquis's entire skin tone began to visibly turn a dark yellow, and his whole body emitted a stench even worse than rotten eggs.
Cang Yinyue naturally also smelled the odor. Her delicate brows immediately furrowed tightly as she turned her head to look at the Cangyuan Marquis with angry eyes.
Setting aside what other harmful effects that Earth Corpse Pill might have, if she had just swallowed that thing and her whole person emitted this kind of stench, for her that would simply be a fate worse than death!
"Can't stand it anymore. This place really can't be stayed in."
Li Musheng waved his hand, glanced disdainfully at the Cangyuan Marquis whose foul smell was becoming increasingly intense, and said to Cang Yinyue, "Let's go outside first before talking."
Having said this, Li Musheng turned around without stopping and walked briskly toward the outside of the cave.
Seeing this, Cang Yinyue covered her nose and hurriedly followed.
However, just as she was about to enter the passageway, she still turned her head to glance at the Cangyuan Marquis who remained in place unable to move, seemingly somewhat hesitant.
"Don't look. Even a vicious tiger won't eat its cubs. What do you want with a father like this?"
Li Musheng's voice came from the other end of the passage.
He had arrived neither too early nor too late, so he had overheard a bit. He roughly knew what had happened in the cave.
Cang Yinyue sighed lightly, a trace of dejection flashing in her eyes, but ultimately she still left quickly, no longer paying attention to the Cangyuan Marquis.
"Thank you!"
Arriving outside in the study, Cang Yinyue looked at Li Musheng quite solemnly and cupped her fists in salute.
If the other party hadn't appeared in time, she would have already fallen victim to the Cangyuan Marquis's scheme. However, she was also somewhat curious at this moment, "Why are you always able to find me?"
"I already told you last time, I have my own methods."
Li Musheng raised his eyebrows slightly and waved his hand, "Don't worry about that for now. The acupoints on your father will soon open by themselves. Let's stay and watch a good show first."
Having said this, he led Cang Yinyue out of the study and came to a distant rooftop where they quietly concealed their forms.
Cang Yinyue occasionally glanced at Li Musheng with suspicion, guessing that the other party must have left some kind of method on her body.
But not only did the other party have no ill will toward her, he had also saved her repeatedly. So she didn't really care that much about it.
She was just thinking in her heart that she already owed Li Musheng one condition from before, and now she owed him such a great debt of gratitude. These were all solid debts of favor, and she didn't know how to repay them in the future.
Just at this time, an extremely angry roar came from within the study.
Before long, the Cangyuan Marquis, his entire body wreathed in wisps of corpse qi and reeking with foul odor, smashed the door and windows to smithereens with one punch and rushed out with a ferocious expression.
He swept his gaze around, but could no longer see any trace of Cang Yinyue and Li Musheng. His entire person immediately became furious, roaring repeatedly, "Damn it, all damn it! Years of planning ruined in one moment. I'll make you all be buried with me!"
The Cangyuan Marquis's eyes flickered with dark yellow ghostly light. His hair was withered, his skin yellowed and dry, and all his blood qi power was rapidly transforming into rolling corpse qi at an extremely fast speed.
But at the same time, his entire person's momentum was also rapidly climbing. The surrounding heaven and earth true qi continuously poured into his body, and his whole body emitted an extremely terrifying qi.
The Cangyuan Marquis surveyed his current appearance, neither human nor ghost, and laughed in extreme anger. Finally, he suddenly turned his head to look toward a certain place in the manor and said viciously, "Things have come to this. I'll first kill that bitch and the little bastard, then go find that damned thing for revenge!"
The next moment, the Cangyuan Marquis immediately transformed into rolling corpse qi and leaped up, leaving only a long-lasting foul odor in his original place as he killed his way toward the courtyard where Zhu Fenglan was located.
Seeing this scene in secret, Li Musheng exclaimed in wonder, turned his head to glance at Cang Yinyue, and shook his head, "Miss Cang, if you turned into this appearance, I'm afraid our friendship could only go this far."
Hearing this, veins bulged on Cang Yinyue's forehead. She rolled her eyes at Li Musheng, then looked with a gloomy gaze at the departing back of the Cangyuan Marquis, "I never thought he would be this kind of person, treating his own biological daughter this way. He's simply unfit to be a father!"
At the same time, Zhu Fenglan and the others, having already detected the abnormal disturbance in the manor, all rushed out from the room and came to the courtyard.
Looking at the Cangyuan Marquis wrapped in rolling corpse qi approaching from afar in the hazy moonlight, Zhu Fenglan narrowed her eyes and rebuked in a heavy voice, "You cur, what are you trying to do?"
"What am I doing? Of course, grinding you, this bitch, to dust and scattering your ashes!"
The Cangyuan Marquis roared eerily. Without another word, he threw a punch. Corpse qi condensed into a terrifying fist shadow about a zhang in circumference that descended from the sky, suddenly smashing down heavily toward Zhu Fenglan and the others.
Zhu Fenglan's eyes contracted. She immediately circulated the true qi in her body with full force, slapping both palms toward the sky. An extremely cold yin breath swept in all directions, suddenly raising a fierce yin wind capable of shaking mountains and stones.
Boom!
The howling yin wind and fist shadow collided. The terrifying aftermath was horrifyingly powerful, directly overturning and razing to the ground the courtyard where Zhu Fenglan was located, as well as a surrounding patch of ornamental trees.
Zhu Fenglan's feet sank several inches deep. Looking at the Cangyuan Marquis who had landed not far away wreathed in corpse qi, her expression was astonished and cold, "What kind of martial arts is this? When did you become so formidable?"
The Cangyuan Marquis stared straight at Zhu Fenglan, walking step by step as he said eerily, "Bitch, I should thank you for this. If you hadn't buried all the corpses in this courtyard over these years, how could I have used them to refine the Earth Corpse Pill?"
"Earth Corpse Pill?"
Zhu Fenglan's gaze changed, showing a shocked and doubtful expression, "When did you get involved with the 'Corpse God Sect'?"
The Cangyuan Marquis narrowed his eyes, his steps not stopping, "Bitch, what use is asking so much? Better think about how you're going to die next."
