Quick cure: After the yandere boss turns black

Chapter 308: The Ascetic Priest: The soft and cute cat, the demon’s beloved (18)

Shangguan Ning was usually approachable and had never shown such a ferocious face.

The butler stopped, looked back at Shangguan Ning, sighed helplessly, and shook his head in disappointment.

Shangguan Ning's heart tightened, "Auntie! Give me another chance!"

Only this time the butler left without looking back.

"Okay, Seventh Princess, the Empress has said that you are not allowed to leave the Demon Suppression Department unless there is anything important. Also, you have violated a taboo of our Demon Slayer. The high priest has ordered you to be detained for seven days. These seven days of confinement are It’s not over yet, please go back first.”

Shangguan Ning refused to give up.

The guard became impatient and pulled her shoulders left and right, dragging her back to the cell.

"boom--"

The cell door slammed shut.

Shangguan Ning fell to the ground with stars in her eyes. When she realized it, the guards had left. She got up and came to the door. Regardless of her appearance, she kicked and beat the cell door.

"Let me out, let me out!"

"My mother-in-law didn't even allow me to be imprisoned, why should she, Mu Qing, imprison me?!"

"Let me out now!"

Perhaps because they couldn't stand her noise, the two guards came back again.

Shangguan Ning twitched the corners of her lips.

She thought these two people knew each other and were ready to let her out.

Seeing them opening the door, he said arrogantly: "Even if you are sensible, you don't even care about my identity, yet you dare to lock me up..."

"Snapped!"

A loud slap echoed through the cell.

There was a red slap mark on Shangguan Ning's face, half of his face instantly swelled up, and his whole body became sluggish.

"Bah, what is your identity? You are a prisoner! How dare you show off in front of us!"

"We in the Demon Suppression Department only listen to the high priest. Who do you think you are?"

"Stay well! If you dare to make trouble again, I'll beat you up!"

The guard threatened venomously.

Shangguan Ning reacted, her face flushed with anger, and she rushed over without hesitation, "You dare to hit me, you are seeking death!"

The fight started like that.

Shangguan Ning is indeed very powerful, but with a small number of enemies, it is naturally difficult to defeat him.

The two guards were also covered in paint, like wild beasts feeling pain, only to be angered and their eyes were red.

The two of them pressed Shangguan Ning to the ground, and landed on her with punches and kicks.

"puff--"

Shangguan Ning couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

The two guards paused for a moment before giving up.

They took a few steps back and Shangguan Ning was already lying on the ground unconscious.

"Hey!"

I kicked the person on the ground, but nothing happened.

"She seemed to have fainted..."

"Tsk, let's send her to the doctor first."

The two of them lifted Shangguan Ning up and walked to the doctor.

When they came to a place with light, Shangguan Ning's body was covered in blood, which was shocking.

"...If the high priest finds out, will he punish us?"

"Probably not..."

...

late at night.

Shangguan was awakened by the sound of ghosts crying and howling.

The slightest movement hurts all over.

hiss--

Slowly opening his eyes, he saw darkness in front of him. It took him a while to get used to the light.

There was a weak oil lamp burning next to him, and there was a hard bed underneath him. There was a wooden shelf next to the wall with various medicine jars on it.

Shangguan Ning knows this place.

There will be a pharmacy on each floor of the Monster Suppression Tower, and some monsters that are about to be killed will be sent here for treatment.

Shangguan Ning supported the bed board and slowly sat up.

The doctor was lying on a soft bed not far away, sound asleep.

Shangguan Ning glanced at her with a cold expression on her face.

"Woooo-"

She frowned slightly, what was that sound?

Only then did she remember that she had just been awakened by such a sound.

Like some kind of animal whining.

It seems, from underground?

A trace of suspicion flashed in Shangguan Ning's eyes.

This is already one floor, and there are no floors below.

Shangguan Ning was suddenly very curious about what the sound was, so she walked quietly and came out of the pharmacy.

She followed the sound to the end of the corridor. She had never been to this place before. When she came to the end, she found a small iron door that was rusty and wrapped with layers of chains.

There was also rust on the chain, as if it had never been opened.

The strange sound also disappeared...

The mystery was still in Shangguan Ning's mind. She stood there for a while and didn't hear the sound again. She was about to leave, but she suddenly noticed the chains out of the corner of her eye.

Not right.

Look carefully, the lock cylinder is loose.

She stretched out her hand tentatively and moved it slightly.

Click.

The lock is open.

Shangguan Ning stiffened for a moment and glanced around furtively.

It was late at night, and if she hadn't happened to be in the pharmacy and woke up in the middle of the night, she probably wouldn't have noticed it.

Of course there is no one else now.

Shangguan Ning opened the door and saw invisible darkness in front of her. She took off the oil lamp next to her and illuminated the path under her feet, which was the downward steps. She bit her lip and went down slowly.

After walking up the stairs for a long time, the air gets colder as we go down.

The pitch-black darkness, the cold wind, and the ethereal sound of dripping water all created a gloomy and depressing atmosphere.

Shangguan Ning hugged her arms and wanted to go back several times, but an inexplicable attraction brought her to the bottom.

There was a faint light ahead. Shangguan Ning turned off the oil lamp and walked some distance. When he turned a corner, a white figure appeared in his sight.

She was shocked and immediately stepped back, covering her mouth.

The whimpering sound reached my ears again, and the person who made the sound seemed to be experiencing severe pain, feeling hoarse and exhausted.

Shangguan Ning cautiously poked her head out.

It was a space that was so big that it had no boundaries. Where there was a light source, you could see cages containing all kinds of monsters and people.

In a circle of orange candlelight, there was a narrow bed. There was a person lying on the bed, with his hands and feet tied in the iron circle. Even if he struggled, it would be useless.

The white figure stood beside the bed with his back to her, his silver hair hanging down to his waist, exuding snowy light like moonlight, his back was unparalleled and cold and shining.

...It’s the high priest, what is she doing here?

What is this place?

Shangguan Ning was extremely confused at this time.

Then, she stretched out her hand to the side. Her long, white hand had clear joints and delicate and clean nails. That beautiful hand picked up a knife.

That knife was very special. It was silver in color, about the size of a palm, and had an extremely thin blade.

Mu Qing bent down slightly, her beautiful black eyes extremely focused, completely immersed in what she was doing at the moment.

The naked person on the bed had scales growing from the waist down.

The blade was inserted in and the scales were carefully dug out, and traces of bright red blood flowed downwards along the line of the man's waist.

Such pain seemed unbearable for ordinary people, and she was shaking violently.

Mu Qing threw the blood-stained scales on the plate, frowned slightly, took out a clean and transparent syringe, injected half a tube of potion into her body, waved her hand and said, "Throw it in."

A voice came from the darkness, "Yes."
