CHAPTER 304: CHAPTER 304

With lightning speed, he stepped back swiftly and reached out to grip Granny Fang’s neck. Just moments ago, Granny Fang, who was as still as a statue, took a deep breath as if she had been resurrected from the dead.

Soon after, her face was filled with terror, her revival quickly turning back to death as she clawed at Master Yin’s hand that was grasping her neck, evidently having difficulty breathing, "Help... help me... Miss Xiaohua..."

Chen Muxue watched it all with a mocking smile, arms crossed.

Master Yin seemed to have seized a crucial point, threatening, "You wouldn’t want Xiaohua to lose her wet nurse, would you? I advise you to mind your own business, only then might she survive!"

Chen Muxue shrugged, "Mm, and then what?"

Master Yin chuckled triumphantly, "I knew you women are all... uh?" It was then that he realized Chen Muxue did not appear to be threatened at all, instead looking utterly indifferent.

This seemed completely beyond Master Yin’s expectations, and he frowned, "How can you be so heartless? This woman is Xiaohua’s wet nurse. Xiaohua has already lost her mother; if she loses her wet nurse too, how sad will she be?"

Chen Muxue said nonchalantly, "The wet nurse has nothing to do with me. I only want Xiaohua back, quickly return Xiaohua to me, or suffer the consequences."

This wet nurse, when she first brought Xiaohua back to the Yin family, she thought she was under Master Yin’s control or something. Yet, just now, when Master Yin seized her, her first reaction was to call out to Xiaohua for help. Isn’t that laughable?

How could a child like Xiaohua save her? Would any normal adult first seek help from a child? If Xiaohua were the only one she acknowledged as her master now, it wouldn’t be impossible, but judging by Granny Fang’s revealed personality, she wouldn’t want Xiaohua to be in any danger even if she were to die. How could someone like that first seek help from Xiaohua?

Although the possibility that Granny Fang’s mind was still under Master Yin’s control couldn’t be entirely ruled out, this sort of awakening reaction was already likely beyond mere control. Coupled with Granny Fang spitting out a massive centipede earlier, Chen Muxue reasonably suspected that Granny Fang was already gone.

This person whether occupying Granny Fang’s body or Granny Fang’s original mind being altered, was no longer the wet nurse Xiaohua knew.

Seeing Chen Muxue seemingly unconcerned, Master Yin let out a sneer, and casually tossed Granny Fang aside. She fell to the ground and lay there, showing no intent of standing or moving, just sitting there half-fallen.

"Very well, you choose to drink a forfeit instead of a toast, do you think I can’t handle you?" Master Yin said, with green spiritual energy beginning to flow through his hands. Such green immediately associated with poison.

Master Yin was quite confident, standing at Fifth Rank Nascent Soul Realm, could he not defeat a woman at Golden Core Stage?

Having just advanced to Nascent Soul Realm, Chen Muxue did not feel a strong oppressive force, so she shook her head with a sigh. Compared to Chu Wuxin, who was possessed by black qi, Master Yin was far inferior.

In Master Yin’s eyes, her actions seemed like the helpless sigh and sorrowful headshake of a weakling forced to fight. Rightly so. Was she already regretful? Just for someone else’s child, she’d risk her life for it. However, it was already too late to turn back.

A woman was like that, weak but emotional!

Master Yin raised his hand...
