In the world of martial arts, I can invest in countless realms.

Chapter 30 Hurry Up

"Open the door! Open the door now!"

Following the footsteps of Butler Mu, Shen Che arrived at a garden, where Butler Mu casually picked up a stone and tapped it on the artificial hill in the garden.

Soon, an opening appeared inside the artificial hill, and through the opening, one could see flickering candlelight.

Under the cover of night, Shen Che followed behind Butler Mu, slipping inside like a fish.

As soon as you enter, you can hear the soft sobbing of a woman.

The voice was kept very low, as if afraid of being overheard.

Upon entering, Butler Mu's back straightened noticeably, and he exuded an air of arrogance.

"Sir!"

Upon seeing Butler Mu arrive, the guards who had been sitting together drinking in the dungeon all stood up, and the other guards who were standing immediately fawned over him.

"Do you know that the master is very unhappy today!"

Butler Mu's face was cold, revealing little other emotion, yet this very expression made everyone else uneasy.

"Sir, you can't blame me for this. Those two little wenches were able to open the cell door by themselves, and they even know martial arts."

"The brothers weren't paying attention, and that's why..."

"Alright!" Steward Mu waved his hand to stop their explanations, his eyes cold and his voice icy. "The master only cares about results. He won't listen to these explanations. If there's a next time, you know what will happen."

"I know, I know, don't worry, sir, it will never happen again!"

Among the guards, the one who was clearly in charge immediately stepped forward and said, "Sir, the newcomers are waiting for you to train them."

"Quickly, bring everyone out!"

Upon hearing this, several guards immediately stepped forward, opened the cell door, and roughly dragged the woman out.

The woman struggled and screamed desperately in the cell, but her resistance seemed so weak and powerless in the face of several strong men.

Their helpless pleas for help went unanswered, and they could only watch in despair as they were dragged away little by little. Those who cried out loudly were met with a brutal beating.

Moreover, they hit people at very precise angles, causing great pain without leaving any fatal wounds.

Finally, a dozen or so figures stood timidly together, being looked up and down like merchandise.

"Not bad, the newcomers all look young and seem like they're good at bearing children. Tell your people to work harder; Old Master He needs manpower, and he's very dissatisfied with your progress."

"Yes, don't worry, sir. I will make sure the brothers work hard and send more people over to Elder He's side."

"Also, the rules must be taught properly; we must never let them even consider running away again!"

His gaze lingered briefly on the two beautiful women before Manager Mu nodded in satisfaction and continued walking inside.

The head guard beside him immediately followed, while also quietly reminding the people behind him.

"What are you all standing there for? Clean up a room and take those two to the steward."

"Yes, yes!"

Shen Che, watching this scene cautiously from the shadows, knew that the strongest of these guards was only at the initial stage of the Acquired Realm, which was nothing to him.

However, it's always best to be cautious; who knows if the Mu family might have some hidden masters? Although the possibility is slim, he still has to be careful.

Manager Mu continued forward, with Shen Che following carefully behind him.

Upon reaching the innermost part, Shen Che was slightly taken aback.

The environment inside is much better than outside, but the eyes of those imprisoned inside are dull and lifeless, as if they have long lost all hope.

By the light of the candle, Shen Che could see that some of the people inside had slightly protruding bellies, while others were clearly pregnant. Even someone who didn't know anything about medicine could tell what was going on.

There are roughly a hundred women locked up inside.

The guards outside the prison gate were clearly more elite than those outside, and inside, an old man was sitting at a table, sipping wine.

The old man didn't even blink when he saw the wood steward arrive.

"It's not the appointed time yet, why are you here already?"

"Old Master He!" Upon seeing the old man, the originally straight back bent slightly. "Didn't two fools escape today? So the master sent me to check on them."

"What are you looking at? What could possibly go wrong here?" The old man snorted in dissatisfaction, then said calmly, "Rest assured, Master Mu, what he wants will be absolutely no problem."

"The Ultimate Realm of Acquired Inheritance?" Shen Che narrowed his eyes slightly. The sudden appearance of the old man made him pay a little more attention, but he did not pose any threat to him.

There is a huge gap between innate and acquired qualities, and Shen Che felt that he could kill him in just two moves.

"I heard that Miss Mu just brought a young man back with her?"

"I was fooled by the same thing back then. It's a pity that she ruined my lifelong reputation. And what's the result? She still goes out and seduces men!"

The old man downed the wine in one gulp, his face full of resentment, making his already wrinkled face appear even uglier.

This scene made Shen Che feel nauseous. Thinking of Miss Mu's lovely appearance, and then looking at this old man in front of him who had almost lost half of his teeth.

Miss Mu is a ruthless person, ruthless enough to herself. At her age, even her father would have to call her grandfather.

"Mr. He, please bear with me. Miss will definitely come to see you after this busy period!"

"Hmph!" The old man slammed his wine glass down on the table and let out a soft snort.

"It's fine if she doesn't come, but shouldn't I get an extra Worry-Free Pill? After all, I've gotten quite a few for you guys this month."

"Don't complain that I've ordered too much; this skill is one of a kind!"

"Yes, Elder He's medical skills are world-renowned. The master knows how fast and steady your hands are. However, the production of the Worry-Free Pill is limited."

Bowing slightly, the butler whispered reassuringly, "We have another new recruit recently. I've had my men train him and send him to you."

"Also, Miss said that she will definitely come over to comfort you after she finishes these busy days."

"Hmph!" There was no reply, only another soft hum, clearly indicating slight dissatisfaction.

I admire your young lady, but I admire that worry-free pill even more.

Seeing the old man's dissatisfaction written all over his face, Steward Mu quickly said, "Old Master He, could you please provide a little more? That way, the master can give you another Worry-Free Pill!"

"Extra?" The old man glanced at the butler and pointed to the women imprisoned in the cells.

"Take a look for yourself. I'd like to, but your supply can't keep up, so there's nothing I can do."

"But whether I do it or not, I can't afford to lose a single penny!"

"Yes, yes, don't worry, even if someone else is missing, yours will not be missing."

After fawning and smiling obsequiously for a while, he unleashed a torrent of abuse on the guards in the dungeon. Only then did Butler Mu emerge from the dungeon and return to his room into the night.

As for the two women, Butler Mu had no desire to go there anymore. Those old hags, they're taking advantage of my kindness and ruining my mood.

Only after seeing that the butler had completely returned to his room did Shen Che follow him back to his own room.

Lying in bed, Shen Che's mind was still filled with the scene he had seen in the dungeon, those numb eyes.

The flowers that grew from people, and the many abducted women in the dungeon—these things had become one in his mind.

Hundreds of women are just waiting for their bellies to show, otherwise they'll become waste.

Sitting up in bed, Shen Che contacted Liu Zhan to get some kerosene, and then prepared some medicine for himself using medicinal herbs.

The night was deep and the surroundings were quiet. Not long after Shen Che finished preparing the medicine, he heard a knock on the door.

"Open the door, open the door quickly!" When the door was opened, there stood Mu Qingshan, the eldest young master of the Mu family.

"Oh, it's Young Master Mu. What brings you here, Young Master Mu?"

"You, surnamed Shen, I'm here hoping you'll leave as soon as possible. The Mu family doesn't welcome you!"

"Hurry up, do you hear me!"
