Chapter 569: Chapter 569: The Charlatan
The space was filled with spiritual energy and bewitching fragrance, so much better than the outside air by countless tis.
Perhaps because of this, Xuexue regained consciousness after a while.
She sat up from the flower bed, looked around, and besides the sea of flowers, there was Xiao Taohong, floating in midair: “Huh, why am I here? Wasn’t I outside?”
“Master, you’re too careless. You were drugged with a bewitching fragrance by that old man. If it weren’t for
bringing you into the space, you wouldn’t know how long you would have passed out.”
“Bewitching fragrance?”
Xuexue rubbed her temples and finally understood why she had suddenly fainted.
It turns out she had fallen into soone’s trap. At the sa ti, she felt a secret sense of relief; thankfully, she had called out Xiao Taohong early. Although Xiao Taohong could sense danger to her life from inside the space, having the little ghost by her side always seed to provide an inexplicable sense of security.
“What about that charlatan?”
“I knocked him out, he’s still in the room,” said Xiao Taohong, floating in front of Xuexue.
“We can’t wait, I must go out imdiately.” As soon as Xuexue had finished speaking, she muttered silently and, with a whoosh, returned to the room,
Indeed, the charlatan was still passed out on the floor of the room.
Soon after, Xiao Taohong followed her out, holding a flower in her hand. She handed it to Xuexue, “Master, this flower has the effect of causing mory loss. Make him eat it, so he won’t go out and talk nonsense.”
Xuexue took the flower and looked at the beautiful little white bloom: “This flower, it really has such a miraculous effect?”
“Of course. The flowers in the space each have their own wonders. Master, you’ll know in the future.”
“Alright.”
Xuexue crushed the flower petals and rudely stuffed them into Ruan Xinzhi’s mouth, forcing him to swallow, forcibly prying his jaw and knocking it a few tis with force.
Xiao Taohong shook her head, “Master, as a young lady could you be a bit more refined? So rough, too rough!”
“Refined for such a charlatan? I’m already showing him a great kindness by not killing him,” Xuexue retorted.
Did he have the audacity to drug her with a bewitching fragrance?
There was an anger bubbling inside Xuexue, and she didn’t hold back in her actions.
After sorting all this out, Xuexue opened the door and went out.
Old Lady Mo and Madam Ruan were anxiously waiting in the courtyard.
They didn’t get Ruan Xinzhi to co out, but Xuexue did, to their utter surprise…
Madam Ruan stared hard behind her: “How… how co it’s you? Where is the mage?”
Madam Xie was quite pleased, however, pulling Xuexue forward eagerly: “How did you co back so quickly? Has the mage already driven out the evil spirits?”
“Mother, you’ve all been deceived by him. What kind of mage is he? He’s just a swindler.”
“Girl, don’t talk nonsense. The mage has profound Taoist magic, how could he be a swindler?” Madam Xie quietly tugged at the corner of her dress, hinting for her not to speak out of turn while Old Lady Mo was there.
Indeed, Old Lady Mo imdiately got angry upon hearing this: “You stupid girl, what nonsense are you spewing! The mage was invited by your grandmother; how could he be a swindler!” Old Lady Mo rebuked fiercely.
Xuexue: “If grandmother doesn’t believe , you can go into the room and see for yourself!”
“I will look, and if you, you damn girl, dare to talk nonsense, I’ll tear your mouth apart.”
Old Lady Mo was also anxious in her heart, not knowing if the mage had been successful.
Thus, she hurried with Madam Ruan into the room to investigate.
Just as they approached the door, they heard a commotion inside.
They stepped into the room and saw the mage standing in front of the altar, his back to them, fiddling with sothing.
