The Chu Family, Chen Muxue took small, quick steps towards the woodshed, only to see Lin Qing tied up tightly by several servants, one of whom was attempting to stuff an unidentifiable rag into his mouth.
Shockingly, the esteemed disciple of the Sixth Elder of the Liuyun Sect had fallen to such a state!
"Chen—having witnessed the boundless sea, one can hardly accept mere water!" Lin Qing saw Chen Muxue and nearly shouted in excitement, catching himself just in time.
The servants were left bewildered by this, all turning their gaze to Chen Muxue. Could this be some secret signal? But wasn't he just a hostage?
It was said he was a servant of the Huo Family's eldest young master, yet both were servants. Why did he, a mere personal servant, deserve such an elegant appearance? It was infuriating, hence their decision to teach him a lesson.
Unexpectedly, the man was quite tenacious; though they managed to tie the ropes, they couldn't get the rag into his mouth.
