No rumors had leaked even after such a huge incident occured, with Madam née Feng attempting to assasinate her disciple and killing two maidservants.
Fairy Huanghe said gloomily, “She really is amazing, settling everything already.”
Qiao Mu patted her head when she heard this. “Huanghe, don’t lose heart.”
She paused and then told her seriously, “But your master will get served her just deserts for all her ill-doing. If there comes a day when I will seek her out…”
Fairy Huanghe sighed with a drooping head. “I understand.”
Qiao Mu walked up to her and sat her down. “There’s something you probably still don’t know yet. The reason zombies are running amok in the world is not by chance but by design.
“The organization behind all of this is called Heavenly Fate. It is possible that the imbeciles in this organization are lying low throughout the world.” Qiao Mu held Huanghe’s hands and explained, “It is for certain that your master Madam née Feng, as well as Shuntian Prefecture’s Prefecture Lord Geng Pengcheng, are members of this Heavenly Fate organization.
“However, we have already replaced the present Prefecture Lord of the Shuntian Prefecture with one of our own people.”
Huanghe listened quietly, but she couldn’t help being taken aback. “Ah? Prefecture Lord Geng is one of your people?”
The little fellow nodded triumphantly. “Prefecture Lord Geng no longer exists in this world. That old geezer…”
Qiao Mu couldn’t help but knit her brows when she recalled how that darn guy refused to divulge the name of the mastermind in the Mu Clan.
“The prefecture lord of Shuntian Prefecture is one of our people. His name is Dunzhu.” Qiao Mu said, “I’m filling you in just so that you don’t get surprised by this prefecture lord’s strange actions.”
Fairy Huanghe silently shut her gaping mouth. She felt like there was something mystical about all of this.
Qiaoqiao and them truly possessed unusual powers to even be able to replace Shuntian Prefecture’s prefecture lord.
“Then, then does my master know?”
“No.” Qiao Mu shook her head, but then she added after some contemplation, “Actually I can’t be certain. Perhaps your master is astute, so it is possible that she had long seen through him.”
Huanghe nodded at this comment. She concurred, “Mhm, she indeed is quick-witted.”
After saying this, she smiled bitterly. “As her disciple, even I don’t know what she is thinking a lot of the time.”
“She could be so ruthless and turn her disciples into zombies…”
“Huanghe, perhaps she wanted to make you guys stronger for her purposes?”
Fairy Huanghe paused. She said with a nod, “She did indeed say that at the time. She even said that my senior sisters were useless! But how could she blame Senior Sister Lingfei for turning into a zombie and being useless after she manipulated her that way? What kind of logic is that!”
Qiao Mu snorted. “Heavenly Fate is a heretical organization that is intent on researching a drug that can alter people’s constitutions. At the beginning, this drug could only transform corpses. The fact that it can even transform living beings now shows that it has undergone significant improvements.”
Fairy Huanghe’s body shook. “I, I still don’t really understand.”
“Simply said, this kind of improved drug is transmitted through nightcaw birds. Once in contact with the human body, it will automatically enter your bloodstream.
“From the zombie mutation at the beginning to the live body mutation right now, it was all done to serve a single purpose—to produce superhumans. They would either succeed or die.”
Qiao Mu’s grip tightened around Huanghe’s hands.
