Chapter 264: The Sect Leader Wakes Up Grumpy Every Day (12)

In the end, Shen Mubai still didn’t drink the bowl of porridge. She feared that if she did, she might never see Jun Jiuling again.

On the other hand, Wu Er, seeing her refusal to eat, glared at her for a full two minutes before angrily saying, “This was personally cooked by our Fire Lotus Sect’s Second Hall Master. If you don’t drink it, there’ll be others who will.”

Shen Mubai felt pity for the group of people.

After saying this, Wu Er gulped down the porridge and wiped his mouth with his sleeve. “You stay here for now. Don’t think about going anywhere. Our sect is heavily guarded. If you seek death, don’t blame anyone else.”

Shen Mubai looked at him with concern. “Are you okay?”

Wu Er clicked his tongue, muttering, “The Second Hall Master put too much salt in today.”

He then furrowed his brows, took out a bottle of pills from his pocket, swallowed a few, and then smoothly swallowed them down, as if it were a routine action.

Shen Mubai thought that this place might indeed end up killing someone.

After performing a series of actions, Wu Er frowned and said, “You better not touch anything in this room randomly. If you get poisoned, you’ll have to figure out how to survive on your own.”

Shen Mubai felt a warmth in her heart, unable to resist saying, “Chunhua…”

The response she got was the sound of Wu Er slamming and locking the door.

Okay.

Shen Mubai was almost fainting from hunger, but she dared not move from her seat, fearing she might accidentally touch something poisonous.

Originally, she wanted to exchange with the system for a chicken or something, but considering her current suspicions, she decided it was better to stay hungry for now.

Eventually, as she grew hungrier, she fell asleep.

Yes, Shen Mubai fell asleep on the table until she heard the sound of the door opening, slowly waking her up from her slumber.

However, the person who entered was not Wu Er, but a woman in red. This woman looked to be around thirty, with an enchanting appearance. She walked in gracefully, sat opposite Shen Mubai, and said with a smile, “You’re the little girl who was caught?”

Before Shen Mubai could respond, the woman reached out her soft hand, lightly pinched her chin, and chuckled. “I didn’t expect you to be such a beauty, but it’s a pity our master doesn’t fancy women.” There was a hint of coldness in her tone at the end.

The information was too much for Shen Mubai to digest for a moment. Finally, she stuttered, “Does your master fancy men then?”

The woman’s hand pinching her chin tightened slightly, and she smiled coldly. “You’re quite sharp-tongued.”

Shen Mubai felt some pain and said plaintively, “But you’re the one who caused the misunderstanding.”

The woman quickly pinched her jaw again, forced an unknown pill into her mouth, and made her swallow it. She then smiled smugly and said, “Do you know what I just gave you to eat?”

Shen Mubai bent over, coughing, unable to spit anything out.

She hadn’t even had breakfast.

Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but feel a bit angry. “You, a big demonic sect, actually do such things to a weak woman.”

The woman smiled smugly and said, “Since you know we’re a demonic sect, why ask such questions?”

Shen Mubai said helplessly, “You have a point. I’m speechless.”

But the woman’s eyes were full of interest. “You’re just a little girl with no skills, yet you have the ability to protect yourself in prison.”
