I Have A Demon God Simulator - Chapter 22
Chapter 22 The Underground Palace And The Leading Party
“Mu? Is… Is that you?”
The mother and daughter, who had been crying in each other’s arms, raised their heads carefully when they heard the commotion outside.
Then, they saw a familiar figure.
When they saw the three black-clothed martial artists either die or escape, Du Wanrong finally mustered up the courage to ask.
Du Wanrong was still trembling with fear, and she could not calm down.
It had been a most difficult time!
Just now, she had thought that everything would end here.
She didn’t expect to be saved by someone at the moment of death.
From his voice, he sounded very similar to her adopted nephew.
This gave Du Wanrong a glimmer of hope!
“It’s me! Auntie, are you all okay?”
Su Mu asked as he walked toward them.
“Wuu… Brother!”
After confirming that it was Su Mu, Xu Qingxue, who had been crying, suddenly sobbed and ran into his arms, sobbing softly.
This was not something a 13-year-old girl like her could bear.
After walking on the line between life and death, it was already a wonder that she had not yet collapsed from the trauma.
“Alright, alright. It’s fine now. It’s all over.
“You’re safe now. I’ll protect you.”
Su Mu gently patted the girl’s back, comforting her in a soft voice.
After some comforting, Du Wanrong and Xu Qingxue gradually calmed down.
After that, Su Mu sent them to the mortuary where Xu Congwu was hiding.
The mortuary was in the north of the city, not far away.
Soon, the family was reunited.
The moment he saw his wife and daughter, Xu Congwu’s excitement could not be described in words!
After the family of three confided in each other, Xu Congwu’s gaze fell on Su Mu. His eyes were extremely complicated.
He had never thought that Su Mu, who had always been hiding under his wings, would actually grow to such a level.
After such a great disaster, Su Mu had single-handedly held up the sky for them!
“Mu, you’ve really grown up. You’re even more outstanding than your father and myself!”
Xu Congwu was very pleased.
But soon, he asked with some worry, “Since our family has been reunited, why don’t we leave Yanjing at the first opportunity?”
Su Mu shook his head and said with a serious face, “It has been heavily fortified and guarded recently. It’ll be hard to leave.”
“Please hide here for a while longer. I’m going to try something. Maybe I can find a way to leave.”
Hearing this, Xu Congwu didn’t ask much and just nodded.
He chose to believe in Su Mu unconditionally.
Under the worried and reluctant gazes of Xu Congwu’s family, Su Mu left the mortuary.
Su Mu had already saved everyone he could.
However, things were far from over!
Su Mu and the others were being charged of a groundless crime.
More importantly, Su Mu had to find out who was behind this.
Moreover, this person even wanted to exterminate them at the root. He was not willing to even let the wife and daughter off!
How could he let such an enemy off?
“Wait. Just you wait for me to find you!”
Su Mu’s killing intent was so dense that it almost materialized.
After leaving the mortuary, he blended into the darkness and rushed in a certain direction.
It was where the fleeing black-clothed martial artist had stopped.
It should be the base of their organization.
No matter how minor it was, it had to at least be a small nest.
On the other side, Lin Cheng’an, who had been escaping for his life, was running madly.
He was the black-clothed warrior that Su Mu had let go on purpose.
After a mad scramble, Lin Cheng’an escaped into a small alley in the south of the city.
The alleys were complicated like a maze.
He arrived at a courtyard after taking several turns.
In the courtyard, there was a seemingly ordinary well.
Lin Cheng’an jumped into the well and went through a secret door at the bottom of the well, arriving at a hidden palace deep underground.
If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, who would have thought that there would be such a large underground palace beneath this ordinary courtyard?
It was obvious that the owner of this underground palace had astonishing power and wealth.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible to build such a structure.
In order to make sure no one was following him, Lin Cheng’an circled outside for a long time.
Now that he had finally returned to the underground palace safely, he could not help but let out a long sigh of relief. He leaned against the wall and gasped for breath.
“Eh? Lin Cheng’an, why are you back already? Have you completed all the missions?”.
An old man walking out of the underground palace saw Lin Cheng’an and couldn’t help but ask in surprise.
Judging from the old man’s posture, he should be one of the higher-ups of this mysterious organization.
Lin Cheng’an shook his head and panted,”
“Something … Something has happened! We were just about to take care of the two targets when a strange person jumped out.
“His strength is profound, and his methods are ruthless! He killed the Wang brothers in an instant.
“I ran for my life, so I could come back and report to you.”
The old man frowned and said with some doubt, “That’s weird! Recently, the Crown Prince has been punished and locked up, and the Eldest Princess is being held captive by us. Who still dares to oppose us?
“Also, you claim that this man killed the Wang brothers in a single move. He must be at least a top warrior among the first-rate warriors. He might even be a post-limitary warrior!”
“If such an expert is involved, what right do you have to escape unscathed?”
Lin Cheng’an was afraid that the old man would misunderstand, so he quickly explained, “He may have only acted to save those two people, so he didn’t come after me.
“By the way, I don’t know what kind of evil arts that person practiced. There was no flesh on his hands, only blood-red bones. It was very strange!” “Wait, what did you say in the second half?”
The old man seemed to have realized something and asked urgently.
“I said, that person’s hands have no flesh and blood, only blood-colored bones.”
After listening to his words, the old man’s face revealed a look of horror!
He stumbled back a few steps, pointed at Lin Cheng’an’s shoulder, and asked in a trembling voice, “Is… Is that the type of bone?”
“Ah? What?”
Lin Cheng’an turned his head and looked at his shoulder in confusion.
With just a glance, his pupils shrank, and his expression was filled with fear!
On his shoulder, there was a blood-red little finger bone!
It was wriggling as if it was alive!
It climbed onto Lin Cheng’an’s shoulder and was discovered by the old man.
This little finger bone seemed to have a mind of its own, and it immediately exploded when it was discovered!
With a “whoosh,” a ray of blood-red light shot toward the old man.
Although this old man’s status was higher than Lin Cheng’an’s, he was a civilian and had no martial arts skills.
He was terrified, but there was nothing he could do.
In the next moment, there was a bloody hole between his eyebrows!
The little finger bone had shot through his head like a bullet.
“Elder Zheng!!!”
Lin Cheng’an’s face turned pale, and he wailed. His heart turned cold.
He seemed to have… Brought the enemy to the underground palace!
