302: A helpless move

"But if we die, you will never be able to find Baiyi Luo's Tomb," Nan Qingyue asked tentatively.

However, upon hearing this, Mu Changan remained calm, without showing the slightest hint of disappointment.

Nan Qingyue looked up; witnessing this scene, she became even more curious.

What exactly was going on?

Could it be that Mu Changan wouldn't feel disappointed?

If such an important matter wasn't achieved, would this person not feel any sadness?

"For me, I have already waited for twenty years. Twenty years have passed, and sometimes I truly have let it go. However, being able to find Baiyi Luo's Tomb would still be a good thing. But if I can't find it, I will simply stay in Dongxiang Thirteenth Long Street forever and never leave, because this place still holds the memories between her and me," Mu Changan sighed deeply.

As Mu Changan said this, his eyes actually grew moist.

But in just an instant, the moisture vanished without a trace.

"So, if this matter doesn't have a good outcome, it's all your fault! You all must die." Mu Changan's face darkened, and a cold glint burst from his eyes.

Then, Mu Changan looked up at Nan Qingyue.

"What is your answer now? Will you take me there or not?"

Mu Changan sneered as he reached out and hoisted Physician Chen into the air.

Physician Chen was unable to move and could only leave himself at Mu Changan's mercy.

Faced with this situation, Nan Qingyue could do nothing. She stood there blankly, feeling utterly helpless.

"Master, if it were you, what would you do? What should I do now!" Nan Qingyue clenched her fists tightly, a cold light flashing in her eyes.

Nan Qingyue was extremely conflicted; she didn't want anyone to die, yet she had no way to prevent it.

As a result, Nan Qingyue fell into a deadlock, completely without recourse.

Confronting this situation...

Nan Qingyue felt even more helpless. She felt she was powerless and couldn't save anyone. Moreover, it seemed everyone was stuck in this deadlock because of her!

"Nan Qingyue! Listen to me! Even if I die, I won't let this fellow find Mr. Li!" Physician Chen coughed several times.

Then, using all his strength, Physician Chen shouted, "Mu Changan, don't even think about succeeding! I won't let you find Mr. Li even if I die!"

However, these words from Physician Chen directly enraged Mu Changan.

Mu Changan's brow furrowed, and a fierce Evil Qi erupted from his body.

Sensing this, Nan Qingyue's pupils shrank violently, and she immediately felt something was wrong. But she had no way to do anything.

"Physician Chen!" Nan Qingyue cried out.

Immediately, Mu Changan gave a cold snort, his body brimming with Killing Intent. At that very moment...

Nan Qingyue lunged forward, heading straight for Physician Chen.

But acting now was already too late; Nan Qingyue found that she simply couldn't do anything at all.

"Die, then! You brought this on yourself!" Mu Changan exerted force suddenly, and a spray of blood light shot through the air.

Physician Chen fell heavily to the ground from the air and breathed his last!

Mu Changan had directly snapped Physician Chen's neck. After dealing the lethal blow, he remained perfectly calm.

Killing was such a common occurrence for Mu Changan.

"Physician Chen!" Nan Qingyue roared, watching as Physician Chen died before her eyes.

Yet, Nan Qingyue could do nothing as Physician Chen's body gradually grew cold, leaving this world.

"Mu Changan! What are you doing! Why did you kill him!" Nan Qingyue looked up and questioned him coldly.

"I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it. I didn't want to kill anyone at first, but this situation is your own doing." After saying this, Mu Changan flicked his sleeves, looking quite nonchalant.

Mu Changan stepped directly over Physician Chen's body without even glancing at it.

Seeing Mu Changan like this, Nan Qingyue grew afraid, and a deep sense of dread sprouted in her heart.

Mu Changan felt he had no choice in doing this; if Nan Qingyue had been willing to lead the way, he wouldn't have killed anyone.

This scene wouldn't have even happened.

"Mu Changan, aren't you afraid I won't take you there now!" Nan Qingyue snorted coldly.

"I advise you not to say that. You've already paid the price for those words just now. Aren't you afraid that even the kid lying on the ground will die here too?" Mu Changan said with a smile.

Although Mu Changan meant it as a joke, Nan Qingyue knew in her heart that if he turned ruthless, Mu Changan truly would do it.

Mu Changan was a man of great strength, and one had to deal with such a person carefully, otherwise the result would be... "I will take you," Nan Qingyue compromised. She didn't want Situ Jiu to die here as well.

Then, Nan Qingyue turned her head and looked at Physician Chen lying on the ground, finally unable to hold out any longer.

In truth, Nan Qingyue wasn't afraid of death, but she was worried about one thing: if Mu Changan really acted, Situ Jiu might die too!

"Wouldn't it have been better to do this earlier? That man wouldn't have had to die. Speaking of which, you're the one who caused his death; I didn't kill him." Mu Changan was such a rogue that he actually said such words.

Leaving those words behind, Mu Changan walked away, heading straight out of Dongxiang Thirteenth Long Street.

As for Situ Jiu lying on the ground, Mu Changan didn't even spare him a glance, simply passing him by.

Seeing this, Nan Qingyue's brow furrowed. Mu Changan's words were like a needle piercing her heart.

"Yes, if I had just taken Mu Changan there from the start, Physician Chen wouldn't have died."

"It's all my fault."

"And Master—if it weren't for me, Master wouldn't have been injured either."

"I've become a burden!"

Nan Qingyue was filled with self-reproach. She clenched her fists, her eyes vacant, lost in her thoughts.

Mu Changan stepped forward and stood right beside Nan Qingyue.

At that moment, Mu Changan reached out and grabbed Nan Qingyue.

"What are you still waiting for? I've said my patience is limited. If you keep delaying like this, I'll have no choice." Mu Changan's face was dark. "I think you know my methods."

"Senior, I understand. But... must my friend stay here?" Nan Qingyue was a bit worried as she glanced at Situ Jiu.

"As long as you take me there, Situ Jiu won't die. Of course, he will have to stay in Dongxiang Thirteenth Long Street for a while." Mu Changan stepped out.
