Wuxia: The Super Slave Master

"My lord, take care! This old minister will return quickly!" After saying this, Zhao Gao left Hu Hai's room without looking back. Seeing Zhao Gao's departing figure, Hu Hai couldn't help but feel worried. As soon as Zhao Gao stepped out of Hu Hai's room, a smug smile spread across his face.

It landed on Zhao Gao's face. Meanwhile, Luo Chen was completely unaware that Zhao Gao and Hu Hai were plotting to kill him. When Luo Chen raised Xue Nu's loyalty to ten, he got off the bed, satisfied. Just as Luo Chen was about to rest, there was a rapid knocking at the door.

The sound startled the dust.

Upon hearing the noise outside the door, Luo Chen shouted at the outside with a hint of anger in his voice:

"What's wrong! Speak quickly, don't disturb my rest!"

When the soldier outside heard Luo Chen's voice from inside the room, he was startled and hurriedly shouted into the room:

"Your Majesty, according to our scouts, we have discovered traces of the Mohists thirty miles from our army's encampment!"

"what?!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Chen hurriedly put on his clothes, quickly opened the door to the room, and walked up to the Qin soldier, asking him:

"Are you sure it's the Mohists?"

When the Qin soldier heard Luo Chen's words, a determined look appeared on his face, and he nodded heavily. Upon receiving the soldier's reply, Luo Chen smiled and laughed heartily, saying:

"Very good. Pass on my order to prepare for the attack at noon tomorrow."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Upon hearing Luo Chen's words, the soldier disappeared from his sight without the slightest hesitation. Although the Qin soldier felt extremely tired, he dared not relax for a moment. In the lawful society of Qin, military matters were absolutely not to be neglected.

It caused a delay.

If the battle was delayed because of that messenger soldier, it wouldn't just be a simple matter of executing that soldier, but rather the extermination of his entire family. Thinking of this, the Qin soldier unconsciously quickened his pace. After seeing the Qin soldier leave, Luo Chen returned to his room. When he saw Duanmu Rong inside, a smile gradually appeared on his face. At this moment, Duanmu Rong, seeing Luo Chen watching her, felt a surge of joy in her heart, as if...

Like a little bird, she nestled in Luo Chen's arms and said gently to him:

"Master, do you want me to serve you again?"

As she said this, Duanmu Rong gave Luo Chen a mysterious look. Seeing this, Luo Chen placed his large, calloused hand on Duanmu Rong's chin and gently said to her:

"This time, I'm taking you somewhere!" As Luo Chen finished speaking, he forcefully waved his right hand towards the door. Instantly, the tightly closed door was flung open. Seeing this, Luo Chen smiled at the women and then quickly flew out the door. At this moment, everyone watched as Luo Chen left...

After they went there, they all followed closely behind.

Despite the long and arduous journey, Luo Chen didn't feel fatigued from the extended flight; on the contrary, she felt increasingly energetic. Gradually, she spotted the Qin army's camp in the air. Upon discovering their encampment, Luo Chen led the women down quickly. Because it was nighttime, the patrolling Qin soldiers didn't see Luo Chen descending from the sky. Only when they landed did the Qin soldiers vaguely notice her.

The few dark figures in front.

"who!"

Upon seeing the dark figure directly ahead, the Qin soldier leading the group quickly led his men toward Luo Chen and his companions. Hearing the sound behind him, Luo Chen also turned around.

As the Qin soldiers drew closer, Luo Chen's face was gradually revealed to them. When they saw that it was their emperor, they were greatly shocked and hurriedly knelt down before Luo Chen, saying in a panic:

"This servant deserves to die. I was unaware of Your Majesty's arrival and have offended you. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

When the Qin soldiers finished speaking, they hurriedly lowered their heads, awaiting Luo Chen's punishment. Luo Chen, upon hearing their words, showed no concern whatsoever, waved his hand, and calmly addressed them:

"Alright, it's alright, you can get up now!"

Upon hearing Luo Chen's words, the Qin soldiers felt as if they had been granted a pardon and gratefully said to Luo Chen:

"Thank you for your mercy, Your Majesty!"

After saying this, the Qin soldiers slowly stood up from the ground. Seeing them rise, Luo Chen slowly walked towards them. When Luo Chen reached the captain, he asked:

"Have those Mohist disciples ahead noticed your arrival?"

Upon hearing Luo Chen's words, the captain hurriedly and respectfully addressed him:

"Your Majesty, we have not yet discovered anything, as we have never seen any abnormalities in the disciples of the Mohist school."

Upon hearing this, Luo Chen was overjoyed and then said to Duanmu Rong beside him:

"Rong'er, you should be very familiar with the routes to this ghost village!"

Upon hearing Luo Chen's words, Duanmu Rong respectfully approached him and said, "I understand perfectly!"

Chapter 408 Infiltrating the Ghost Village

After hearing Duanmu Rong's words, Luo Chen nodded in satisfaction and said to Duanmu Rong:

"Very good. This time you will lead the way. Shao Siming and Chi Lian, you two will follow me in the Mo family's ghost village and be ready to act at any time. As for the main force, they will be ready to support us. Once we have destroyed all the traps in the Mo family's ghost village, we will launch a full-scale attack."

When Luo Chen finished speaking, everyone followed his orders and began to drive. Duanmu Rong, relying on her memory, carefully drove towards the ghost village.

"Although this place is called a ghost village, it is not actually haunted. It is just a claim made by the Mohists to deceive the public."

There were no guards outside the ghost village, but countless traps and mechanisms lay hidden within. Inside the village, sentries were stationed everywhere to keep watch. "Duanmu Rong explained in detail to everyone. As she finished speaking, she quickly blocked their way with her arm, then slowly walked forward alone, touching the trunks of nearby trees with her slender fingers. Just as Duanmu Rong touched the second tree, her face gradually..."

He gradually smiled and whispered to the crowd:

"That's it!" As soon as she said this, Duanmu Rong quickly used the silver needle in her hand to pierce the tree trunk. With a forceful flick, the bark instantly fell off, and then a handle resembling a mechanism appeared on Duanmu Rong's finger.

In front of Rong.

When Duanmu Rong pulled down the lever, she excitedly said to Luo Chen:

"Master, all the mechanisms inside have now been destroyed. Let's go in now!"

Upon hearing Duanmu Rong's words, Luo Chen didn't rush inside. Instead, he stood there, lost in thought. Seeing Luo Chen's expression, Shao Siming, Chi Lian, and the others also fell silent, waiting patiently.

Just then, a smile slowly appeared on Luo Chen's face, and then Luo Chen said to Duanmu Rong:

"Do not destroy any of the mechanisms. Also, this operation will be carried out by you alone. Remember, do not arouse any suspicion from the Mo family or the Xiang clan." Although Duanmu Rong was very doubtful after hearing Luo Chen's words, she nodded without hesitation and continued forward. Seeing this, Luo Chen hurriedly called Shao Siming and Chi Lian to his side, quickly dispelling their doubts.

Lost. Just after Duanmu Rong left Luochen, she swaggered towards the ghost village. As she was about to enter the village, a chilling ghostly wail suddenly rang out. At this moment, a smile gradually appeared on Duanmu Rong's face as she grinned towards the outhouse.

shouted:

"Uncle Yong, don't you stink in the outhouse?" Upon hearing the familiar voice, Uncle Yong, who was playing the ghost, slowly poked his head out of the outhouse. Seeing that it was Duanmu Rong, Uncle Yong laughed heartily and walked out of the outhouse, slowly approaching Duanmu Rong's side, happily...

He said to Duanmu Rong:

"Miss Rong'er, where have you been these past few days? Xiao Zhi has been talking about you all the time!"

After hearing Uncle Yong's words, Duanmu Rong calmly nodded and asked him with a puzzled look:

"Uncle Yong, where's Yue'er?"

Seeing that Duanmu Rong was deliberately changing the subject, Uncle Yong didn't press the matter further and said to her:

"Miss Moon is probably in her room right now!"

After hearing Uncle Yong's words, Duanmu Rong simply thanked him and quickly headed towards Gao Yue's room. Just as Uncle Yong was about to return to his post, a disgruntled voice suddenly came from behind him, scolding him:

"Uncle Yong, why are you coming out from the hidden sentry post again? Don't you know that your position is extremely well-hidden? If someone sees you, the safety of our Mo family will be ruined!"

After hearing Dongguo Zhi's words, Uncle Yong repeatedly apologized to Dongguo Zhi and explained:

"Xiao Zhi, this was indeed my oversight, but I only rushed out because I saw that Miss Rong'er had returned."

At that moment, after hearing what Uncle Yong said, Dong Guozhi grabbed Uncle Yong's shoulders with both hands and said excitedly to him:

"Uncle Yong, what did you say?! Rong'er is back?!"

Seeing Dong Guozhi's excited expression, Uncle Yong nodded blankly. Dong Guozhi, upon seeing Uncle Yong's reply, couldn't help but burst into laughter and happily asked Uncle Yong:

"Uncle Yong, where is Rong'er now?"

Seeing Dong Guozhi's current state, Uncle Yong hurriedly pointed towards Gao Yue's room. Upon seeing this, Dong Guozhi shouted and, without even saying goodbye, quickly ran in the direction Uncle Yong was pointing.

At this moment, Duanmu Rong slowly walked to Gao Yue's door. When she saw that the light inside had been turned off, she gently placed her hand on the door and began to knock.

"Clang clang clang."

Although Duanmu Rong used very little force, Gao Yue was still awakened by the noise outside the door, and called out in a drowsy voice:

"Who is it?"

When Duanmu Rong heard that Gao Yue had woken up, she whispered into the room:

"Yue'er, it's me." Upon hearing Duanmu Rong's voice outside, Gao Yue immediately sat up in surprise, quickly dressed, and hurriedly opened her bedroom door. When Gao Yue saw Duanmu Rong, she excitedly jumped down...

Duanmu Rong hugged it to her arms, and said to Duanmu Rong with concern:

"Sister Rong'er, where have you gone? You haven't contacted us for so long, I'm really worried about you."

After hearing Gao Yue's words, Duanmu Rong gently wiped away the tears from Gao Yue's eyes and comforted her, saying, "Silly girl, how could your sister be in danger!"

Chapter 409 Haunted Village

Although Duanmu Rong said that, a trace of worry could still be seen in Gao Yue's eyes.

"Rong'er? Rong'er! Where are you?" Dongguo Zhi's anxious voice echoed from afar. When Duanmu Rong and Gao Yue heard Dongguo Zhi's voice, they slowly looked in the direction it came from. Upon seeing Duanmu Rong, Dongguo Zhi was immediately overjoyed and eagerly rushed towards her.

Duanmu Rong ran over.

"Rong'er! Where have you been these past few days? You haven't even contacted us, I was so worried about you!"

As she spoke, she moved closer to Duanmu Rong. Seeing this, Duanmu Rong quickly hid behind Gao Yue, looking impatiently at Dong Guo Zhi, and coldly said to him:

"Okay, I understand. It's getting late, I need to go to rest."

After saying this, Duanmu Rong hurriedly pulled Gao Yue into the room. Gao Yue, seeing this, helplessly shrugged at Dongguo Zhi, playfully stuck out her tongue, and then went inside. Dongguo Zhi, seeing Rong'er's coldness towards him, didn't feel angry at all; after all, Duanmu Rong's attitude towards him had always been like this. Seeing Duanmu Rong and Gao Yue enter the room, Dongguo Zhi felt a slight disappointment, but was still very excited; at least Rong'er...

They're back safely.

"Chief, Miss Rong'er has already gone inside, but we still need to patrol!"

Upon hearing the voice behind him, Dong Guozhi impatiently turned around and said to the person:

"Okay! I understand."

After Dongguo Zhi finished speaking, he glanced reluctantly at Duanmu Rong and Gao Yue's room, then reprimanded the person:

"Go on patrol! I just wanted to come see Rong'er, why are you in such a hurry!"

At this moment, Duanmu Rong, who had been hiding behind the door, breathed a long sigh of relief after seeing Dongguo Zhi leave, and sat down on the edge of the bed. Gao Yue, seeing Duanmu Rong's tense expression, burst out laughing and said to her with a grin:

"Sister Rong, you know that Brother Zhi has always liked you, there's no need to make it so obvious!"

After hearing Gao Yue's words, Duanmu Rong couldn't help but start thinking:

"It seems Gao Yue thought I was acting that way to avoid Dong Guo Zhi. If that's the case..."

When Duanmu Rong thought of this, she covered her mouth with her hand, lazily yawned, and said wearily to Gao Yue:

"Yue'er, let's sleep. I'm a little tired from the long journey back!" After saying this, Duanmu Rong lay down on the bed. Seeing Duanmu Rong's expression, Gao Yue smiled helplessly and shook her head, then slowly lay down on the other side of the bed. After glancing at Duanmu Rong, she closed her eyes and began to sleep.

She woke up. About an hour later, Duanmu Rong slowly opened her eyes, carefully looked at Gao Xing, and then slowly took out a very thin incense stick from her clothes. She then took a lit kerosene lamp from the side and lit the incense stick in her hand.

It lit. Light white smoke gradually drifted from the incense. Seeing this, Duanmu Rong quickly covered her mouth and nose, then hurriedly placed the incense stick next to Gao Yue. Gao Yue gradually inhaled the white smoke.

Inside one's own body.

Gradually, Gao Yue's body went limp. Seeing this, Duanmu Rong slowly put down the incense she was holding and softly called out to Gao Yue:

"Yue'er? Yue'er?" When Duanmu Rong saw that Gao Yue didn't react at all, she gently pushed Gao Yue's body with her hand. Seeing that Gao Yue still didn't respond, a smile gradually appeared on Duanmu Rong's face. After quickly dressing Gao Yue, Duanmu...

Rong then carefully walked out of the room.

Along the way, Duanmu Rong carefully observed her surroundings. Without being noticed by anyone, she gradually made her way into a grove of trees in the ghost village. Then, she cautiously called out softly to her surroundings:

"Master? Master?"

Upon hearing Duanmu Rong's call, Luo Chen swiftly leaped from a large tree to her side. Seeing Luo Chen land before her, Duanmu Rong hurriedly bowed respectfully and said:

"Master, I've already bewitched Gao Yue. What should I do next?"

When Luo Chen heard this, a sinister smile gradually appeared on his face, and then he said cunningly to Duanmu Rong:

"Rong'er, can you make a drug that can induce hallucinations?" Upon hearing Luo Chen's question, Duanmu Rong hurriedly began to recall the possibilities in her mind. Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, Duanmu Rong excitedly nodded to Luo Chen. Seeing Duanmu Rong's answer, Luo Chen smiled and whispered in her ear...

They started talking.

After Luo Chen fully explained his plan to Duanmu Rong, Duanmu Rong flattered him, saying:

"Master, what a brilliant plan! I'll go prepare it now."

After saying this, Duanmu Rong hurriedly returned to her room. After handing the unconscious Gao Yue to Luo Chen, she made a huge mess of her room. Upon seeing the state of the room, she screamed loudly. Hearing the commotion coming from Duanmu Rong's room, the Mo family disciples patrolling the ghost village rushed towards it. When Dongguo Zhi entered the room, he saw Duanmu Rong huddled in a corner of the bed, trembling with fear.

Looking out the door.

Upon seeing this, Dongguo Zhi hurriedly walked over to Duanmu Rong and asked her with concern:

"Rong'er, what exactly happened? Where is Gao Yue?"

But Duanmu Rong seemed not to hear Dongguo Zhi's words, staring frantically at the door, muttering to herself repeatedly, "A ghost! A ghost! Yue'er has been taken away by a ghost!"
