Chapter 125 - Chapter 42 Lady_2

He paused, then said,

"As for why so many masters failed to discover this pair of Mother-Child Evils, it is because these Mother-Child Evils carried a special Magic Artifact that concealed their presence. Based on Gu's speculation, it must have been some fortuitous encounter that allowed them to obtain this object unintentionally, hence why they remained undetected..."

After pondering for a moment, he added,

"If Sixth Master Huang still has doubts, why not invite an expert to take another look at the feng shui of the mansion? According to Gu's estimate, the remains of that pair of Mother-Child Evils should be right within your residence..."

He hesitated briefly before adding another sentence,

"Sixth Master might want to recall, going back many years, whether there has ever been a young pregnant woman who died in this residence!"

"A young pregnant woman!"

Sixth Master Huang's expression shifted, and after a moment of silence, as if he suddenly remembered something, his complexion gradually darkened. Gu Shi Yi could tell from his changing expressions that Sixth Master Huang had recalled something. Thus, he cupped his hands and said,

"Sixth Master, Gu has urgent matters to attend to. I would appreciate if you could arrange for a coach to send me on my way. As for the matters of your residence... I believe Sixth Master will make a decisive judgment!"

Regaining his senses, Sixth Master Huang hurriedly cupped his hands and said,

"Important matters should take precedence. I will arrange for a coach to take the lady out of the residence, and after the lady has taken care of her affairs, I must properly thank the lady!"

Gu Shi Yi let out a bitter chuckle,

"There's no need for such courtesy, Sixth Master!"

Let's talk about gratitude if she could safely return!

Sixth Master Huang hurriedly called for his steward to arrange a coach and personally escorted Gu Shi Yi to the entrance of the residence. After watching her board the coach, he turned and went back inside. It wasn't long before his steward went out to invite a Taoist Sect expert into the residence. Indeed, they found a body in the back garden of the Huang Residence. The corpse was so decayed it was almost unrecognizable, but they could still make out several small bones in the abdomen of the body. Upon seeing this, the Taoist Sect expert said,

"It is indeed the Mother-Child Evils. Had they cultivated for another five years, I'm afraid no one in this mansion would have been spared from their clutches. It seems Sixth Master Huang has encountered a true master!"

Sixth Master Huang quickly asked,

"Then will my offspring no longer suffer harm in the future?"

"From now on, there will be no harm. Sixth Master may freely multiply and add descendants to the Huang Family!"

"Thank you very much!"

Overjoyed, Sixth Master Huang generously rewarded the expert. He sat for a long while in his study, and finally stood up with a slam, indignantly heading to the inner quarters. Not to mention the quarrel between Sixth Master Huang and his wife, let's turn back to Gu Shi Yi, who was sitting in the coach heading towards a small alley indicated by the middle-aged man. Once she arrived at the entrance of the small alley, she asked the coachman to stop. After getting off the coach, she handed the coachman some copper coins,

"This is the place. Please go back, Coachman Brother!"

The coachman hurriedly said,

"Miss, Sixth Master ordered me to escort you and then take you back as well. I dare not leave and will wait for you right here!"

Gu Shi Yi thought for a moment and nodded,

"I am not sure when I will return after running my errand. You may wait for me in a nearby teahouse!"

"Understood!"

Having left the coach, she headed towards the small alley. The place indicated by the middle-aged man was situated in East City of Blue Moon City. From the outside, it appeared to be nothing more than a secluded little alley, completely ordinary and indistinguishable from the surrounding streets.

Gu Shi Yi walked just a hundred steps into the alley before reaching its end. She looked around to ensure no one was around, then pressed her left hand against the wall in front of her. As soon as her left hand touched it, the blue-brick wall rippled away like water. Gu Shi Yi looked around in surprise, assessing for danger. After determining it was safe, she cautiously stepped forward, passing through the wall. In the blink of an eye, she found herself on another street.

This street didn't seem much different from the one outside, except the passersby appeared a bit odd. There were people whose faces were covered by hats, people wearing plain robes and carrying Giant Swords on their backs, someone walking a ferocious dog with wings, and even a beautiful woman carrying a Three-Tailed cat, who passing by Gu Shi Yi, looked at her curiously,

"Eh... How did you, a mortal, come here?"

Gu Shi Yi quickly bowed and said with an apologetic smile,

"I mean no offense to the esteemed ones. I am merely carrying out a task on behalf of someone and have intruded without permission!"

The beautiful woman nodded, then kindly asked,

"Where are you heading to?"

"To the lady, I am going to Hundred Herbs Pavilion..."

"Oh... So you're from the Wonder Medicine Sect..."

The woman turned and pointed in a certain direction,
