Reincarnated! My Parents and Brothers Beg for My Forgiveness

Chapter 990: Buying Time
Editor: Atlas Studios

The purpose of going up the mountain this time was to find traces of Sacred Blood and investigate Kong Chen, the Daoist priest. It would be even better if they could find evidence of Kong Chen selling contraband.

However, now that they had entered the mountain, their plan had to change. The matter on Mount Zhongnan had disrupted their plan. If they continued to be delayed, they did not know when they would be able to complete their plan.

The few of them sat in the room. Wen Chuan had also returned, his gaze thoughtful.

Yu Su shook her head. “It’s fine. Don’t worry, everything is going according to plan.”

“Then are we really going to help the people of Mount Zhongnan lift the curse?” Leng Yan thought for a moment and asked.

Yu Su said, “Let nature take its course, if they’re worth it.” If they deserved it, she naturally wouldn’t make a move.

The few of them returned to their rooms to sleep. As there were not enough rooms on the mountain, Yu Su and Leng Yan slept in the same room while the other three slept together.

Throughout the night, the wails on the mountain did not stop. The miserable cries were so noisy that the merchants in the room were about to die. They could not sleep at all.

Fortunately, Yu Su and the others had spiritual artifacts in their rooms. After setting up a silent barrier, they could isolate those voices. Leng Yan was worried about everyone’s safety, so she sat in front of the window and kept watch. Her mission was to assist Yu Su in her actions and preserve the evidence of the crime.

After dawn, the businessmen also woke up. Yu Su’s room was patted pn loudly. Leng Yan opened the door and realized that it was An Ran.

Leng Yan asked, “Ms. An, what’s the matter?”

An Ran looked into the room and said in an unfriendly tone, “Do you really have a way to remove the curse, or are you stalling for time?”

“So what if we aree stalling for time?” Yu Su walked out of the room and said coldly.

An Ran pulled out a sword and pointed it at Yu Su. “If you dare to lie to us, I naturally have a way to make you wish you were dead. Do you understand?” Last night, she was really afraid of the tumor. She did not sleep the entire night and rushed over at dawn today, wishing that Yu Su could find a way now.

An Ran had two things in mind today. First, she wanted to scare Yu Su into taking this seriously. Second, she was testing Yu Su, seeing if she was really as capable as she hoped. She didn’t want to get her hopes up for nothing..

Yu Su smiled and looked behind An Ran. “Steward Mo, is this how Mount Zhongnan entertains guests? I don’t dare to help you find the source of the curse. If I anger Ms. An, won’t I die without a corpse?”

If you want someone to do something for you, you should at least have a decent attitude. Coming here so early in the morning to threaten her, the people of Zhongnan Mountain are really too arrogant.

Mo Ting rushed over and frowned when he heard Yu Su’s words. “An Ran, stand down. If you anger Ms. Yu, you can see if I report this to the elders.”

“I…” An Ran stomped her feet in anger and glared at Yu Su before putting away the sword in her hand. She had decided to guard Yu Su today. She wanted to see what tricks Yu Su was up to.

Mo Ting looked at Yu Su. “Ms. Yu, we have already prepared breakfast for the guests. Shall we go over and eat now?”

“There’s no hurry.” Yu Su’s expression was calm. “Why don’t we talk about the unicorn yesterday?”

“Ah? Ms. Yu, what do you mean?” Mo Ting forced himself to remain calm, but his expression was visibly panicked. Could it be that this person in front of him knew the secret of the unicorn?

Yu Su smiled. “Steward Mo, do you still want to hide it for that person?” If she did not pursue the matter, the people of Mount Zhongnan would really pretend that nothing had happened.

Mo Ting wiped his sweat and hesitated for a moment. “Ms. Yu, you can see the current situation. There are more and more people with strange illnesses on our mountain. Why don’t I apologize to you when this matter is over?”

As time passed, more and more people gathered around. The merchants also got up one after another.

“Wasn’t it a coincidence that the ferocious beasts barged into the hall yesterday?”

“Ms. Yu, what do you mean?”

“Is there something elsewe don’t know?”

“Steward Mo looks very nervous. Could it be that the unicorns didn’t go crazy, but there’s another special reason?”

“What exactly is going on!”

Listening to the discussion around her, Yu Su raised her voice and said, “Those unicorns didn’t go crazy at all.We were deliberately fed with herbs and placed in a living hall, and we were used as baits.”

“What?”

“Outrageous!”

“What’s their motive?”

“So, those ferocious beasts were deliberately let in by the people of Mount Zhongnan yesterday?”

“Why are you people from Mount Zhongnan doing this? My leg still hurts. Three middle-aged men even lost their lives yesterday. You’re committing murder.”

The surrounding merchants said indignantly.
