Chapter 90 Reluctant Parting

Murong Ziyan and the other two quickly reached the alley outside the east wall of Muyun Mansion. Hearing a terrified scream coming

from , they jumped over the wall into the backyard and peered in from among the flowering bushes.

They saw a soldier screaming and running frantically out of the Muyu Tower, followed by a series of incoherent

ghostly cries!

Murong Ziyan was greatly surprised. In broad daylight, Yun'er could actually pretend to be a ghost and scare this man

like ? She wasn't in a hurry to show herself, wanting to see what Yun'er was up to.

After the soldiers had fled the backyard in fright and they had finally managed to subdue the terrified soldier, the three of

them emerged from the flowering bushes and entered the Muyu Tower. Just as they were about to go up the stairs after passing through the main hall, a white-clad female ghost suddenly pounced down from

the stairwell !

Upon seeing her, Fei Shuang and Cai Hong, though knowing it was the young lady causing trouble, were still startled!

The young lady's ghostly appearance was truly terrifying; her extremely twisted and bizarre body was a masterpiece in the history of

ghost-playing , unforgettable at first sight. The exceptionally terrifying visual impact

could easily cause long-term psychological trauma!

Without a doubt, the young lady's portrayal of a vengeful ghost had reached its pinnacle! Almost no witness could

escape the lingering terrifying aftereffects, unable to break free from that nightmarish imagery,

demonstrating just how realistic the young lady's ghostly disguise was!

It was entirely justified that the soldier was driven mad by fear!

"What are you doing here?" Zhou Yun said irritably, her tone quite unfriendly. A series of cracking sounds came from her body

as she turned her head back to the front, and her broken right leg joint returned to normal.

"I've come to find you! Yun'er, you've been causing trouble for so long, haven't you had enough?" Murong Ziyan

was both amused and exasperated by her daughter's horrifying attire!

She herself had been quite wild in her youth, engaging in fights and committing all sorts of evil deeds, but she was nowhere near as

creative as her daughter, whose bizarre ideas and behaviors were endless!

"I was having so much fun! Mother, you've come to ruin it again, what a spoilsport!" Zhou Yun said, her face full of displeasure.

Then Zhenwen also appeared, dressed like a female ghost, just like the young lady, only not as frightening,

but she was covered in blood, with bits of flesh on her hands, and the strong smell of blood was nauseating, as if she had just come from

a slaughterhouse !

Seeing the madam's arrival, she hurriedly stepped forward to pay her respects.

Murong Ziyan frowned slightly. "Zhenwen, you're supposed to be the adjutant to the commander of the Tyrannosaurus Army now.

How can you look like this?!"

Zhenwen looked at the young lady and stammered, "This servant... I..."

Zhou Yun said casually, "It's alright, I was having her study human body sculpting art... Zhenwen,

are ?"

Zhenwen said tremblingly, "Um... that one's hollowed out, the flesh hasn't been completely removed yet..."

"That'll do, let's go get it and hang it up!" Zhou Yun leaped towards the garden, Zhenwen quickly

following .

They hung the five corpses, their internal organs emptied and their bodies mutilated, from the main hall beams, then scattered

their internal organs on the ground. Only the brains and five human hearts were smashed to a pulp, buried in a pit in the garden,

creating a horrifying scene of ghosts devouring people!

While cooperating, Zhenwen asked, "If Miss does this, naturally no one will dare to stay at Muyu Tower. But if Miss wants to come back to live here

in the future , aren't you afraid these people will turn into vengeful ghosts and come after you?

" Zhou Yun calmly replied, "I ask you, which is more terrifying, evil ghosts or me?"

Zhenwen truthfully said, "Miss is more terrifying!"

Zhou Yun said, "Then that settles it. Even evil ghosts are afraid of me, why should I be afraid of ghosts?"

Murong Ziyan, Feishuang, and Caihong stood aside, neither helping nor stopping her. For some reason,

she felt a deep sense of powerlessness towards her crazy daughter. She really didn't know what terrifying

things her daughter wouldn't dare to do!

She couldn't help but think to herself, "Could it be that I've killed too many people, and I'm being haunted by wandering ghosts, resulting in this

strange and monstrous fetus?"

However, in her heart, she still loved this daughter very much. Her daughter had too many

shadows , as if she were a continuation of her own life.

After dealing with the five mutilated corpses, Zhou Yun and Zhenwen quickly removed their ghostly costumes and

donned full armor and helmets, resembling the attire of a Tyrannosaurus Rex knight.

Although this armor was state-of-the-art plate armor, significantly lighter than the older iron plate armor

, a full set still weighed at least thirty or forty pounds. Unless charged on horseback, it was still somewhat

cumbersome for infantry, even making Zhenwen move with limited agility. However, it seemed to have little effect on Yun'er, who darted about the

house, leaping and bounding with incredible speed! She kept urging Zhenwen to hurry, seemingly busy with something.

Murong Ziyan felt a pang of guilt; she was truly unaware of Yun'er's various peculiar hobbies. Zhenwen's

armor was smooth and shiny, without a single flaw, while Yun'er's breastplate had three or four circular dents scattered across it, seemingly caused by impacts

from arrows or something similar. She couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Yun'er, what happened to these dents on your breastplate?"

Such a set of fine armor for the Tyrannosaurus Army was no cheap affair, and her and Yun'er's armor was even more expensive. Because Yun'er was prone to causing

trouble, in addition to her highly protective fine armor, she was specially made to wear a layer of soft metal wire armor underneath,

the same kind she and Wuyue wore. It would be one thing if such expensive equipment was damaged in battle, but to

have it damaged truly heartbreaking!

"It's those useless bunch! Their crossbows can't hit the government troops, but they keep shooting bolts at me!" Zhou Yun

turned to Zhenwen and said, "I've scared all the government troops outside away. I doubt anyone will dare come back. Call those men

out and keep firing the Zhuge crossbows!"

Zhenwen agreed, opened the cellar door under the stairwell, and shouted inside, "The government troops are gone! You

can come out now. Remember to take your things and get to your assigned positions!"

Dozens of ragged beggars filed out, each carrying a crossbow and several bags of bolts

. They bowed and scraped before Zhenwen, as if she were a god of wealth! They then entered the courtyard

and took their positions .

Murong Ziyan saw these ragged men in groups of three, some hiding behind trees, others lying prone behind rocks...

Two of them held repeating crossbows, clumsily pulling the handles to string the bowstrings and loading several bolts. Because

they weren't skilled enough, they often misloaded, and bolts frequently fell from the crossbow mounts, injuring their hands and feet, causing

them to cry out in pain – it was a complete mess!

Once they finally managed to load one, they handed it to the other person, taking the empty crossbow from them to load again, and that

person was responsible for firing it outwards with a "whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."

Each time it was fired, someone would call out a name; for example, the guy in the corner had

shouted

Zhenwen, who had a notebook, immediately drew a line under Wang Lu's name!

Then Wang Lu muttered, "Sigh~ Miss Zhenwen, this thing takes so long to load,

it takes forever to fire even once. Otherwise, we could earn so much more silver!"

Zhenwen scolded, "Why would we need you if it weren't troublesome? Hurry up and load the arrow, stop nagging!"

Yun'er wasn't idle either, running around in front of these people, pointing out that this posture was wrong, that movement was too slow.

Once the amount accumulated in Zhenwen's notebook reached a whole number, Yun'er took out a silver note to pay. The group's firing speed

couldn't keep up with her light-footed movements. Even though they were firing at the air, the arrows would occasionally accidentally bounce off her. Sigh~

another pitfall!

Murong Ziyan was both distressed and puzzled: "Yun'er, what are these people doing? There's not

a soul in sight outside right now, who are you telling them to shoot at?"

Zhou Yun said to her mother with great interest: "I told them to shoot at whatever they wanted into the sky, making a huge

commotion over Muyun Mansion, the bigger the commotion the better, so that Wuyue can see them more easily! These people are all

beggars . I promised them ten taels of silver for every shot they fired, regardless of whether they hit anyone or not. They heard

they could earn so much money, so they risked their lives to come in with me!"

It turned out that after Zhou Yun and her servant sneaked back into the manor that night, although the main force of the government troops had been transferred to the

vicinity , there were still about a hundred government troops left in the manor. Most of them lived in the Jingwei barracks in the front yard,

and there were also twenty or thirty people stationed in the back yard. Zhou Yun then resorted to trickery. Her exceptional lightness skill allowed her to move swiftly like the wind, and she used props

to create an air of mystery, making her act convincing

. She killed the government troops stationed in the inner courtyard one by one with her finger-flicking magic, making it appear as if she were sucking their souls.

That night, when the Tyrannosaurus Army raided the government troops on the streets outside the compound, they had already captured a large number of repeating crossbows and arrows, which were

hidden in the cellar of Muyu Tower. Zhou Yun was familiar with the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow, having captured quite a few in the Battle of Luokou,

and had learned how to fire it. She asked Zhenwen to load the arrows for her, intending to play around with firing them.

However, she lost interest after only one shot. Impatient by nature, she couldn't wait for Zhenwen to load

each ! So she had Zhenwen sneak out and call in the beggars waiting on the street outside, whom she had arranged to meet

beforehand, to help her fire the crossbows.

Murong Ziyan patiently watched for a while. Yun'er was very trustworthy in business,

always paying cash on delivery and treating everyone fairly. In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, another thousand-tael silver note was taken and divided among the beggars. Yun'er then turned around and

took another ten-thousand-tael silver note from her pocket.

She felt a pang of regret. Yun'er really didn't know the value of money until she was in charge of the household. She had to spend money to purchase equipment for the Tyrannosaurus Army and the Elite Guard.

Not only was there no income from the fiefdom outside the Great Wall, but she also had to contribute money to encourage childbirth. She

needed . In just a short while, fifty sets of full-body, high-quality plate armor, including the riders and horses, were gone, and

it looked like there were more. She had to advise, "Yun'er, stop playing! Elsa and the others are still waiting at Lishan, and the main force

is still waiting for us at Lingyan Temple!"

Zhou Yun said, "Let's wait a little longer! I want to wait here for Wuyue to find us. Why don't you take the others and leave first, and I'll go back when

I'm done playing !"

Murong Ziyan frowned and said, "I've been looking for him too. But from midnight last night until now, there's been no news of Wuyue

! You've been making a scene here for so long; if he could find us, he would have come long ago. Why wait until now?

Let's go Master Jing has planted some spies nearby. If Wuyue shows up in Jinan, we'll definitely find

him." Her face was filled with worry, a deep sorrow hanging over her beautiful features.

Because of the prior agreement, Zhou Yun dared not disobey her mother too much. Although extremely unwilling, she had no choice but

to send the beggars away, carry the repeating crossbow and bolts back to the cellar and hide them, and follow her mother away

, looking back every step of the way.
