Although Munin's plan was good, he found that the Family Shen's people were closely watching him. They even used both hard and soft tactics to invite him to the Family Shen to wait for the result.
In fact, no one could stop him if he wanted to leave now, but Lu Qin and his people were secretly watching him, so it was a rare opportunity. The defense in other places of the City Lord's Mansion was bound to be weak, which was extremely advantageous for him to steal the jade pendant.
Therefore, he quickly agreed to go to the Family Shen and wait, but he proposed to sit in the same sedan chair as the Family Shen.
Shen Quxin and the others were stunned at first, then felt that Munin was indeed very naive. At this time, he still wanted to save face, so they couldn't help but look down on him.
Therefore, they specially prepared a sedan chair for Munin and carried him to the Family Shen.
As soon as he walked out of the City Lord's Mansion, Lu Qin indeed brought a lot of people and quietly followed him.
After walking two streets, people came and went, and it was very prosperous, which was very useful for hiding. Munin immediately used a trick to escape, leaving Zhen Mowu's painted skin in the sedan chair, firmly attracting the attention of the Family Shen, Lu Qin, and the others.
His original appearance of Lingdou quietly left the sedan chair, carefully avoiding Lu Qin and the others in the City Lord's Mansion, and quietly circled back to the City Lord's Mansion.
Along the way, he used the Floating Cloud Technique to speed up. He had limited time to attack, so of course he had to end the battle quickly.
It didn't take long for him to return to the City Lord's Mansion. He completely unfolded his Divine Sense, avoiding the many open and hidden sentries. Finally, in a secret room, he sensed that the jade pendant was tightly guarded and protected by countless mechanisms.
Seeing this array, he finally understood why Quan Zhen didn't bring the jade pendant with him. With such strict measures, it was impossible to get the jade pendant without at least five First Rated Warriors joining forces.
If Quan Zhen had the jade pendant with him, as long as he was targeted by a slightly stronger First Rated Warrior, it would be possible to snatch the jade pendant.
Although the jade pendant was very tightly guarded, it was only for ordinary warriors. It was useless for cultivators like Munin who could use Divine Sense and accurately know the location of the jade pendant. He only used a few more tricks, but he stole the jade pendant without anyone noticing. Then, he sped back, quietly returned to the sedan chair, and put the painted skin on it, without any flaws.
As soon as he entered the Family Shen, Munin, he asked to talk to Zhen Xianshu alone.
As expected, Lu Qin brought people all the way.
As soon as he entered the living room, he wanted to talk to Zhen Xianshu and Shen.
Shen Quxin and Shen and Shen Shen agreed.
The two of them, one in front and one behind, came to the small courtyard again. Munin calmly used a little trick to completely deceive the surrounding people.
After a little hesitation, Zhen Xianshu handed over the many treasures of the Zhen family that she took back from the City Lord's Mansion. At the same time, she said, "Seventh Brother, take these things. I'll send you out of the backyard. Don't come back to Green Rock City in the future. You can't take back the family heirloom."
Munin was slightly stunned. He didn't expect Zhen Xianshu to do this. However, it also showed that the Family Shen did have some ulterior motives for him. He had already promised to give her two Sacred Medicine Prescriptions, but she was still insatiably greedy.
After understanding the reason, he didn't take those things because he had already memorized everything when he used Divine Sense. He said, "Third Sister, keep these things. Otherwise, what will you do? I'll write the two Sacred Medicine Prescriptions of the Zhen family for you now. It's up to you whether to give them to the Family Shen or not." “
Zhen Xianshu said anxiously, "Listen to me, quickly take the things and leave." “
While the two were arguing, Munin took the opportunity to condense a needle with his Dharmic powers. He pierced Zhen Xianshu's wrist and secretly took a drop of blood. The reason why he came to the Family Shen and did so much was for this drop of blood.
After getting what he wanted, Munin naturally didn't want to stay any longer. He directly went to the main hall to say goodbye to Shen Quxin and his son.
Although he knew that they might have ulterior motives, in order to save Zhen Xianshu from trouble, he had to leave the Family Shen openly.
In the main hall, after Munin said goodbye, Shen Quxin and his son's expressions kept changing. It seemed like they were ready to make a move.
At this moment, Zhen Xianshu quickly came out and took out the two Sacred Medicine Prescriptions and the other treasures of the Zhen family. She placed them in front of Shen Quxin and his son. Then, she pulled Munin and walked out. At the same time, she said, "Linjun, take a look at these things with father. Seventh Brother is in a hurry to leave. I'll send him out."
Shen Quxin and his son were already hesitant. After receiving the treasures of the Zhen family, especially the two Sacred Medicine Prescriptions, they became even more hesitant. At this moment, Zhen Xianshu had already pulled Munin out of the main hall.
When they arrived at the entrance of the Family Shen, Zhen Xianshu was very reluctant. After repeatedly reminding Munin, she couldn't help but hug Munin. Yu Laopan, who was at the entrance, was dumbfounded and almost stumbled to the ground.
"Third Sister, take care." Munin originally wanted to say some words of comfort, but he knew that after Zhen Mowu left, he probably wouldn't see Zhen Xianshu again. The words that reached his mouth could only become "take care."
Zhen Xianshu's eyes were filled with tears, but she still let go of Munin. Her expression was very sad.
Munin was a bit moved, but he didn't hesitate to turn and leave the Family Shen.
Not long after, although there were only Shen Quxin and Shen Linjun and Zhen Xianshu in the main hall of the Family Shen, the atmosphere was a bit strange.
"Xianshu, why did you let Seventh Brother leave so quickly? Do you not trust us?" Shen Linjun questioned, but he didn't completely point it out. As for the matter of Zhen Xianshu hugging Munin, he already knew before Zhen Xianshu came back, but he didn't take it to heart. He was mainly angry that Zhen Xianshu, as the Young Madam of the Family Shen, was still decisively protecting her family.
Shen Quxin's expression was dignified, but he sat on the main seat and also looked at Zhen Xianshu.
Zhen Xianshu pondered for a moment and said, "Father, I did this to save the Family Shen. If you guys made a move just now, I'm afraid it would bring disaster to the Family Shen."
"Xianshu, how can you be so impudent? In order to protect your cousin, you spoke without thinking in front of Father." Shen Linjun said with a reproachful tone.
Zhen Xianshu solemnly said, "Father, husband, do you really think that the person just now was my Seventh Brother? I'm 90% sure that the person just now was the person at the bottom of the lake, and not my Seventh Brother. “
Shen Linjun didn't believe her at all and said, "Zhen Xianshu, don't go too far."
Shen Quxin, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "Xianshu, go back to your room and rest first."
After Zhen Xianshu left, Shen Linjun was even more furious. "Father, do you believe her ridiculous words? “
"Jun 'er, I've recalled the person just now's every move in the past few days. He might really be the person at the bottom of the lake. Even if it's not the person himself, I'm afraid he's being controlled." Shen Quxin said with certainty.
Shen Linjun thought for a moment and felt that it was indeed very suspicious, so he believed his father's words. But on second thought, his face became livid and he said in exasperation, "This bitch, since he's not her Seventh Brother, she still acted so intimately and hugged him in public. This is really outrageous. I'm going to divorce her." “
"Don't be impatient. Xianshu wasn't sure. She probably guessed it from her expression and behavior. She said that to protect her seventh brother so that we wouldn't chase after him. Those intimate actions were purely because she couldn't bear to leave her family. Shen Quxin said with a calm expression.
Shen Linjun couldn't calm down. "Father, how can you be sure? As long as there's a possibility that she's unfaithful, I'm going to divorce her. In the past, the Zhen Family might have some scruples, but now what are we afraid of?"
"Stupid. How can I rest assured to leave the Family Shen to you in the future? I'll say it again. Xianshu is definitely not unfaithful to you. Don't be so narrow-minded." "Also, do you know what I'm afraid of? It's the person at the bottom of the lake. Since he's related to Xianshu, if we still make things difficult for Xianshu, he'll come out and destroy our Family Shen. Isn't that asking for it?" Shen Quxin reprimanded.
Shen Linjun was a little confused and didn't say anything.
Shen Quxin saw that he didn't completely change Shen Linjun's mind, so he continued earnestly, "For the Family Shen, you have to treat Xianshu better in the future. Don't even mention divorcing her. Our Family Shen can't afford to offend the person at the bottom of the lake." "Besides, Xianshu's alchemy skills are very good. She's also an expert in managing internal affairs. She's definitely a good wife. Don't say those words just because of a little suspicion." "Also, go and ask around in Green Rock City. Ever since the person at the bottom of the lake appeared in the mirage, Swordsman Mu's name spread out. Many young ladies and young wives secretly admire him. Don't tell me those people don't want to live anymore?" “
"Father, I understand." Shen Linjun finally felt relieved.
At this moment, a maid walked into the main hall. She was hesitant and seemed to be hiding something in her sleeve.
"Xiao Xi, if you have something to say, say it quickly. Don't dilly-dally." Shen Quxin was impatient.
"Master, I found this in the Seventh Madam's brazier." The maid hesitated and took out a small piece of paper that wasn't completely burned.
Shen Quxin took the paper and looked at it. Although it was incomplete, it was his Seventh Madam's painting. However, the portrait on it almost made him vomit blood. It was actually the image of Munin that appeared in the mirage.
Looking at these lifelike portraits, it must have left a deep impression. Furthermore, it must have taken a lot of effort to draw it.
"What a shameless person. He actually dares to call himself a hero …" Shen Quxin couldn't help but curse.
Shen Linjun hurriedly said, "Father, be careful with your words. We can't afford to offend that person. You have to be more open-minded. After all, Seventh Madam is a few years younger than Xianshu …"
