Chapter 198 Mu Bai's Anger

"An elder I knew well passed away today!"

Mu Bai was still immersed in sorrow, looking a little dazed. Although Xu Fan and Mo Fan had asked him to help protect He Yu before they left, in his opinion, He Yu's current situation was not dangerous.

"Would you like us to come over and help?"

He Yu stood up and asked. Mu Bai subconsciously wanted to refuse, but seeing that He Yu looked worried, he didn't say it. Maybe it would be better for He Yu to be busy with other things now.

Mu Bai's shop was located in the Bocheng resettlement area that was originally set up. It was still some distance away from where they were now, but Mu Bai did not call a taxi. He just walked back to the shop step by step.

During this journey, Mu Bai walked very slowly and his steps were very heavy, but his sadness was also relieved a lot with each step.

Perhaps Mu Bai had already made the choice of life and death. A magician is a profession that walks on a tightrope. It is better to say that in the ancient capital, being able to leave behind a corpse is already a blessing.

Seeing Mu Bai's serious expression, Zhou Min remained silent along the way, but He Yu started chatting with Mu Bai, and the topic of their conversation was Mu Bai's uncle Di E.

"Thank you. I feel much better now. Uncle Di Crocodile has helped me a lot in the past three years!"

Mu Bai let out a long sigh and thanked He Yu, but what he didn't say in his heart was that this Uncle Di E always gave him the feeling of an uncle who loved him.

"You are welcome!"

He Yu told Mu Bai that she had already prepared for the worst. When Xu Fan and the others brought news about Zhang Xiaohou, no matter what the news was, her fear and sadness would end!

"Did Ning Xue go out with Xu Fan as well? I haven't seen her for a long time!"

Mu Bai suddenly asked. He remembered it very clearly, but when Xu Fan asked him to do it, he did say that Mu Ningxue would stay with him to protect He Yu.

"Not sure, Ning Xue left here early yesterday morning!"

Zhou Min shook her head. After Xu Fan and Mu Ningxue said something, Mu Ningxue became strange and then seemed to have disappeared suddenly. Until now, she didn't know what Mu Ningxue was doing.

Mu Bai nodded, and then concentrated on leading the way. After turning a street, the sign of Mu Bai's shop was already clearly visible. Next to Mu Bai's shop was a breakfast shop. Although it was clearly evening, the breakfast shop was surrounded by people.

"Is it really a coincidence?"

Mu Ningxue's figure slowly emerged from the shadows. She was wearing a cloak, which was a magic tool she had received as a reward from the military. Its only effect was to grant her a basic shadow magic of invisibility, which greatly improved her concealment.

It was not Mu Ningxue's fault for being too cautious. It was really that Xu Fan's words were too important. Mu He was the culprit who caused her and her father to fall from grace. If Mu He could be captured, perhaps the unjust accusation against the Mu family in Bo City could be cleared.

Mu Ningxue wanted to use this battle to announce to the world that their Bo City Mu family had absolutely not been in cahoots with the Black Church!

As for whether her father would be accepted by the Mu family in the imperial capital, Mu Ningxue no longer imagined such a thing. Her man once promised her that he would build a kingdom for her that belonged to them! "Boss Bai, you are finally here. This is the last thing that old man Di wants to say to you! It happened so suddenly. In just three or five minutes, old man Di used up his last bit of strength to leave you this paragraph of words!"

Zhao Kunsan rushed forward and stuffed a photo ball into Mu Bai's hand. Although Zhao Kunsan was also sad about the death of old man Di, he and old man Di did not have a very good relationship. His sadness was more because of Mu Bai.

Mu Bai walked through the crowd and looked into the breakfast shop. Old Man Di's body had been placed on the coffin, covered with a white cloth.

Old Man Di had no relatives, and the only person he had a good relationship with was Mu Bai, but the enthusiastic neighbors still helped him deal with his funeral.

Of course, this is just the beginning. If Mu Bai does not intervene, Old Man Di will be cremated tonight. This is an ancient capital, and no one dares to dump corpses randomly.

The fire mages from the crematorium were already waiting among the crowd.

Mu Bai did not open the photo stone directly to look at it. Instead, he held back his tears and gently lifted a corner of the white cloth. Old Man Di's face looked very peaceful, which made Mu Bai feel a little comforted. Fortunately, Old Man Di did not suffer too much pain in the end.

Mu Bai then took the initiative to take charge of Old Man Di's funeral arrangements, and Old Man Di's cremation was postponed to tomorrow morning, giving Mu Bai one night to keep vigil.

Zhou Min, He Yu, Zhao Kunsan and others also helped build the mourning hall under the guidance of some elderly people in Bo City, and Mu Bai personally changed clothes for old man Di, giving him the final dignity.

Everyone was busy until ten o'clock in the evening, and the rest of the time was left to Mu Bai, who had the best relationship with Old Man Di.

He Yu and Zhou Min said goodbye to Mu Bai and walked back to their residence along the same route. However, Mu Ningxue, who was secretly following them, suddenly discovered the trace of another person.

"Mu He! You finally showed up!"

A hint of murderous intent flashed in Mu Ningxue's eyes, and an ice bow slowly appeared under her wide cloak.

Mu Bai, who was left alone in the breakfast shop, gently put down the photo beads in his hand. Old Man Di's last words made him burst into tears, but after wiping away his tears, a hint of inextinguishable anger appeared in Mu Bai's eyes.

"Uncle Di Crocodile, you are dead! Died of a sudden heart attack!"

Mu Bai gritted his teeth and said this. He gently stroked the spirit bed with his hand. A layer of coldness bloomed from his fingertips, and the entire spirit bed was finally wrapped in a layer of ice.

Mu Bai used up all his ice magic power. He had already recognized that the dead man in front of him was indeed Di E, but not his uncle Di E.

Or, in other words, someone approached him by using the identity of Di E, and had been taking care of him as Uncle Di E. Mu Bai already had an idea of ​​who this person was. It was Uncle Mu He who treated him like his own son!
Although on the surface this Di E did not seem to have any flaws, Mu Bai had a hunch that this corpse was clearly a stranger.

When Mu Bai saw this person, he felt more fear for the corpse of his own kind than remembrance of his old friend.

In addition to Xu Fan's reminder, although Mu Bai didn't know how high Mu Ningxue's current cultivation level was, he was very clear about one thing, that is, adding another person to the people that Mu Ningxue couldn't protect would definitely not make any difference.

It was obvious that Xu Fan had other intentions in approaching him, and the only interaction between him and Xu Fan, apart from the minor conflicts caused by their youth and ignorance, was that man!
