Mo Jinyu

Chapter 505 - 505 The Reason for Being Unaffected by Erosion


Gu Xiyan hung up the phone, having learned some solutions from Mu Jinyu.


She hurriedly made another call to Mu Hongchen, asking her to prepare some weapons made of gold and then send them over here to deal with the demon minions in this area.


After hanging up the phone again, Gu Xiyan looked at Su Zijin and Mei Yinxue with a somewhat frightened gaze, fearing that they too had been demonized.


But remembering Mu Jinyu's instructions, she finally clenched her teeth and then said, "Everyone, follow me first."


Upon hearing Gu Xiyan's words, Su Zijin, and the other women didn't know what she intended to do and cast worried glances at the bodyguards contending in battle with the demons before following Gu Xiyan out of the courtyard to another safe courtyard.


During this time, Gu Xiyan deliberately avoided some of the Su Family's housemaids, and finally successfully led Su Zijin and the others to the room that Mu Jinyu had once lived in.


"Xiyan, what are you doing?"


Mei Yinxue stood at the door, recalling Gu Xiyan's recent actions. She understood that Xiyan was specifically avoiding others, probably fearing sudden demonization, but was still somewhat baffled as to why she had brought them here.


If they were seeking refuge, shouldn't they have run to the Dragon King Hall's headquarters?


Gu Xiyan didn't answer but found a box of Silver Needles that Mu Jinyu had left behind. Then, clenching her teeth, she pricked her own fingertip first, watching as the crimson blood oozed out, and she finally felt relieved.


She was actually quite afraid that she had been demonized and would suddenly start harming those around her like Little Zhang had.


Now that she had not been invaded by demons, she no longer had to be so anxious.


Of course, it didn't end with just herself being fine. Su Zijin and the others were still at risk and needed to be tested as well.


If there were problems with their blood, then, according to Mu Jinyu's words, they should separate from them for the time being.


As for whether there was a cure, neither Su Zijin nor Mu Jinyu knew.


"Wen Rou, extend your hand as well."


Thinking this, Gu Xiyan took a deep breath and called out to the most fragile among them, Wen Rou.


"What... what is it, Sister Xiyan?" Wen Rou's face was very pale. Hearing Gu Xiyan's words, she couldn't help but turn her head toward her and asked in a somewhat stammering voice.


Of course, as she asked, she obediently extended her fair, small hand toward Gu Xiyan.


Gu Xiyan said, "Let's check if anyone among us has a problem."


"Bear with it a moment!"


Saying that, Gu Xiyan grabbed Wen Rou's small hand and thrust a silver needle into her fingertip.


"Ah!"


Wen Rou, who had always been quite timid, couldn't help but cry out at Gu Xiyan's action.


Gu Xiyan pulled out the silver needle, looking at the crimson fresh blood oozing from Wen Rou's fingertip, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.


Then, she looked toward Mei Yinxue.


Mei Yinxue was clever. From Gu Xiyan's actions and their recent conversation, she knew that if someone was demonized, their blood should change, and Gu Xiyan was now checking if any of them had also been invaded by demons.


Thus, without asking further, she extended her hand to Gu Xiyan.


"Bear with it."


Gu Xiyan grabbed Mei Yinxue's hand and pricked her with the needle as well. It was also crimson and showed no issues.


Then, she looked toward Su Zijin.


Su Zijin didn't speak a word and handed her hand over. Gu Xiyan didn't waste words and pricked her as well.


After the checks, none of the four of them showed signs of demon invasion.


"Phew, we're relatively safe for now."


Gu Xiyan put away the silver needles, and her entire demeanor relaxed a bit.


However, she couldn't relax much, as she then thought of her parents and the many Gu family members, and her expression tensed up again.


Wen Rou and Mei Yinxue were relatively fine, given they had no relatives left anymore.


Su Zijin was the same, the people she cared about were now Mu Jinyu and those three little girls.


Gu Xiyan's eyebrows furrowed tightly, and she said with some agitation, "What should we do? My family is still in River City, and I don't know if anything has happened to them?"


Although Gu Xiyan had fallen out with the Gu family members for various reasons and had not gone back to the Gu family for a long time,


she would not really ignore her family in a life-threatening situation like this.


After all, no matter what, they were still bound by blood.


Anxious and worried, Gu Xiyan knew she couldn't possibly bring her whole family to Capital City. She could only take out her phone and call her parents, instructing them to be careful and constantly check their blood for any issues.


She also asked them to inform other relatives and friends to go out less and avoid crowded places.


After finishing the call with her parents, Gu Xiyan also called Yu Linglong, Lin Qiaoxia, Xu Qingya, and reminded them to be cautious.


She told them to stop worrying about the company's issues.


Indeed, with the panic of the disaster happening, Mu Jinyu had already known that the global economy would collapse; it was simply impossible to hide it.


Who would still care about their own beauty when at any moment, the people around could transform into attacking demons?


Gu Xiyan was making calls one after another, reporting the situation.


Suddenly, a shimmering green light suddenly lit up on her body.


"Ah!!"


"Sister Xiyan!!"


Wen Rou was already on edge, and seeing the green light appear on Gu Xiyan's body, she thought Gu Xiyan was going to demonize too, which made her scream in horror.


Mei Yinxue and Su Zijin also frowned deeply, very worried. Thıs text ıs hosted at novelfire(.)net


They thought that if Gu Xiyan really was invaded by a demon and turned into a horrible demon minion like before, what would they do?!


It was not possible that they would really have to kill her right there, was it?


Then how would they explain to Mu Jinyu when he returned?


"I..." Gu Xiyan was also frightened, standing there dumbly with her phone, thinking she was going to turn into one of those fierce and hideous demons as well.


But after waiting for a long time, she realized she was still unharmed.


The layer of shimmering green light on her body then gradually faded away.


Gu Xiyan didn't think too much, quickly took out a Silver Needle, and with trembling hands, gave herself another injection.


Yes, the blood was still bright red.


"I'm okay?"


Gu Xiyan cried out in surprise and joy.


At that moment, a shimmering green light suddenly lit up on Su Zijin's body as well.


Having witnessed Gu Xiyan's example, except for Wen Rou who was somewhat panicked, both Gu Xiyan and Mei Yinxue remained calm.


They felt that most likely nothing would happen to Su Zijin.


Sure enough, after the green light on Su Zijin's body disappeared, Gu Xiyan checked her again, and indeed, Su Zijin's blood was still normal.


"I think we must have been invaded by the demons of the panic disaster just now, but something protected us, keeping us safe,"


Gu Xiyan analyzed calmly.


"Something that protected us, and it should be the same thing..."


Su Zijin also analyzed calmly.


As they spoke, she and Gu Xiyan exchanged glances, their eyes brightening, they said, "The jade pendants that Jinyu gave us a while ago."
