Chaos Systems
Chapters. 69 - Mysterious Man
"Oh, so you're trying to be his patron, huh?" Asked the man after he was in the presence of the current Mu Chen Xiao.
Mu Chen Xiao grinned and replied, "You chose to kill a child first than the adults around you?" He said as he continued to hold onto Zhang Xiuzhen to keep him behind him.
"Just calm down, I won't kill you." Said the man with a grin that made everyone around him feel suspicious.
”Does this guy still want to hide his identity? This system did not even want to tell me who this man was.” Inner Mu Chen Xiao who kept paying attention to a man who was looking at him coldly. "... Who are you? Why not show your true form in front of people who might die at your hands? At least it'll make their curiosity disappear." Mu Chen Xiao said, referring to the headscarf of the man who was not separated from him.
"You think I'll open it for you?"
Not long after their conversation was over, they, from behind the back of the man appeared Ye Xing with a sword in his right hand and prepared to attack Zhang Xiuzhen who was now behind Mu Chen Xiao.
Realizing that, Mu Chen Xiao immediately pushed back Zhang Xiuzhen along with himself however, the man instead held his hand so that he could not protect Zhang Xiuzhen behind him.
"You won't be able to protect her." Said the man who immediately strangled Mu Chen Xiao's neck with one hand and slammed him to the ground.
”Ck! Why is it that every day I am always in danger like this?!” inner Mu Chen Xiao who tried to let go of this male hand that kept strangling his neck to make it hard to breathe.
Mu Chen Xiao glanced to the right and he felt very calm when he saw Hao Shu who moved to protect Zhang Xiuzhen when he was in another matter. ”... It's good that the rat moves on its own to protect His Majesty. And right now, I'm in other trouble and no one can do anything to me.” Inner Mu Chen Xiao who could not turn his eyes on a man who was now trying to kill him.
"You're really making me tired! Why not just die?!" The snapping of that man continued to make Mu Chen Xiao even more unable to breathe.
"S~ who are you?! I don't know you at all!" Mu Chen Xiao replied in a loud voice that made the man feel surprised after hearing it.
He also loosened his grip and made room for Mu Chen Xiao to breathe however, he still did not also let go of his dirty hands from Mu Chen Xiao's neck.
When he tried to stay still for a moment, he suddenly felt the poison in his body start to burn and make it feel like it was burning and pierced by hundreds of swords. Because of the blood that was clumping in his throat, Mu Chen Xiao was forced to spit it out before his opponent so that it made him look helpless.
”Cih! This must be because of that stray arrow! I could die in this place!” inner Mu Chen Xiao who coughed and spat out blood containing poison within.
"In your blood, there is a very dangerous poison from a Youdu spider from Luoyang city. The poison will gnaw all your organs and poison all your bloodstream so that the chances of you living are only fifteen minutes away." Clearly the man after he saw the helpless Mu Chen Xiao for the first time.
”Actually, he's talking about what?” inner Mu Chen Xiao was still speechless as the man continued to overlap his body.
"But lucky I have the antidote." He said as he took out a red pill that was previously in a small bottle and stored behind his clothes. "... Just this time you're the reason why I can be kind to you because, I don't want you to die sooner than I thought." The man said back while putting the red pill into Mu Chen Xiao's mouth to make him swallow it.
When he managed to get Mu Chen Xiao to swallow it, the man then placed the small bottle over Mu Chen Xiao's palm. He put his mouth in front of Mu Chen Xiao's ear and whispered, "... If you're curious about me, I'm a person very close to you beyond your own great master. You'll know in a few years."
Mu Chen Xiao was speechless after the man whispered something to him. He let her go along with Ye Xing, leaving the Jinya mountains that had been chaotic and partially destroyed. And after that, everything returned to normal as usual and the night would remain even though everyone who was in Jinya's residence was severely injured.
Due to the spider poison Youdu that was still spreading within his veins and the antidote to the poison that was working so slowly, made Mu Chen Xiao unconscious for days.
Then, after three days had passed. Mu Chen Xiao finally regained his senses however, he still felt puzzled by the incident that happened a few days ago. He felt very confident that he had an archery wound in his right abdomen. However, he still did not remember who did that to him.
”I've been dead how many years? What kind of place is this?" Asked Mu Chen Xiao who was confused while staring around who seemed familiar with him.
Mu Chen Xiao who felt pain in his stomach, immediately opened half of his clothes and saw a pile of bandages that had wrapped around his stomach and also red patches that appeared from behind his bandages.
”This is not a former cesarean section or kidney stone removal, is it?”
