"Ah Xuan," a woman's voice came, catching my attention.
She is... New female lead Su Yan.
I took two steps back, intentionally creating distance between me and Chu Xuan.
Su Yan walked up to Chu Xuan and casually linked her arm with his: "Ah Xuan, I've been looking for you everywhere. What are you doing here? And who is this?"
"I'm He Ming," I answered proactively.
"So you're Ah Xuan's master!" Su Yan looked me up and down, "After all these years, you haven't changed a bit, still young. I'm amazed..."
Su Yan didn't wait for Chu Xuan to continue speaking and turned around to leave.
"Hey, Ah Xuan, this is our first time meeting, it's not good to leave like this..."
I watched the two of them bickering as they walked further and further away. It seems like they don't need me to mediate.
Now, first find Miaosang, I don't know where she's been locked up, let's ask around.
...
Chu Xuan pulled Su Yan's hand out and asked, "What do you want with me?"
Su Yan once again grabbed Chu Xuan's arm and said, "Of course I came to find you, my husband."
Chu Xuan's gaze sent chills down one's spine. Su Yan honestly replied, "I heard that a dead person came back to life, so I came out of curiosity to take a look. I didn't expect it to be him."
"Oh, by the way, did you let him use my soul-binding lock?"
Chu Xuan's silence says it all," Su Yan sneered, "Things that are borrowed will eventually have to be returned. However..."
Su Yan reached out to touch Chu Xuan's face, but was promptly stopped by Chu Xuan. Su Yan continued nonchalantly, "No rush, after all, you are my husband~"
Chu Xuan glanced at Su Yan and said nothing, then left straight away.
Chu Xuan sat at the head, absent-minded, and the disciples below dared not ask too much, and the scene was quiet to the extreme.
Until a disciple ran in, timidly reporting to Chu Xuan: "...Your Excellency, no, the former Your Excellency, is inquiring about the whereabouts of Miao Sang..."
At these words, Chu Xuan immediately became alert, and with a "smack" on the table, the disciples below were frightened.
"Since you know his identity, stop wasting time and take him over there!"
"Yes, yes." The disciple turned around to leave.
"Wait," Chu Xuan called him back, "light all the candles for me, and also, bury the dead and half-dead ones somewhere, clean up the place."
"Yes, yes," the disciple wiped the sweat from his forehead and quickly walked away.
...
"Sorry for the wait, please follow me," the disciple walked ahead of me.
"Although he didn't say anything, I know that Miaosang must have been locked in the prison cell. It's just... this cell is surprisingly clean... 'Is this newly built?' I asked in puzzlement."
"Not really."
"Oh."
The disciple suddenly realized that his previous response had been too decisive and seemed rather perfunctory. He quickly bowed to me and said, "This wasn't newly built; it was probably constructed about three years ago."
I laughed at him and lightly patted his shoulder, saying, "Don't be so formal, I won't bite."
"No, no, please."
The disciple stopped in his tracks and reached to unlock the door.
The door had just opened when a figure pounced. The disciple's first reaction was to stand in front of me, and their arm was bitten hard, drawing blood. "My disciple," the voice made her pause for a moment.
"Don't be afraid, Master is here. Do you remember me?"
I looked at Miao Sang with anticipation, hoping she would recognize me.
Miao Sang opened her mouth, and I quickly pushed the disciple in front of me away, to prevent further injury.
Miao Sang's gaze slowly moved towards me, trembling as she spoke, "Master..."
Miao Sang moved closer, suddenly threw herself at me, and hugged me tightly, unable to help bursting into tears.
I comforted her in a soft voice, saying, "Don't cry, don't cry. Master is here to take you out."
After saying that, he helped Miao Sang to walk out.
