~ MU YUNYAO WHO IS SUDDENLY ENLIGHTENED ~ 

“I promise you, who do you want to kill?”

Yue Wang’s cold voice resounded within the room, causing Mu Yunyao to raise her head abruptly.

“Fourth Master, have you thought about it?”

“It’s hard to catch a word when it comes out. When I promised you, I naturally made up my mind. Who do you want to kill?” Yue Wang’s gaze was clear. After being together for such a long time, he understood that Mu Yunyao definitely wasn’t a person who recklessly killed innocents. The person who could make her kill him must have done something unforgivable.

Although according to the normal reason, Mu Yunyao would never have any intersection with his subordinates. But since she had already spoken, he was willing to believe her.

The tight bowstring in Mu Yunyao’s heart snapped with a clanging sound as if a small hole had been torn in the haze, and blinding sunlight shone in: “I don’t know these people’s names, but I can draw their faces. There are five people in total....”

“Yunyao, what’s the matter?” After Mu Yunyao finished speaking, Yue Wang saw that her face quickly turned pale, and his heart tensed up. Just what exactly happened to her to be in such a terrible state just thinking about it?

“I’m fine. Your Highness should have a brush and ink here. Can you lend me some?” Mu Yunyao gritted her teeth and did her best to calm herself down. Even though she knew that these happened in her previous life and there was still room for recovery in this life, some of her fear was like a maggot attached to a bone. As long as they aren’t completely removed, it would be like a shadow following her all the time.

Although Mu Yunyao’s expression was currently unsightly, the aura around her was exceptionally resolute. Yue Wang nodded his head when he saw this. He got up and walked over to the table to help her grind the ink.

Mu Yunyao doesn’t know why she was so impulsive today. She even takes the initiative to disrupt her plan, but she has no reason to take it back. If Yue Wang really killed those five people as she wished, maybe this change will be in a good direction...

Mu Yunyao picked up her brush and sucked in a breath of air before putting it down. She closed her eyes and forced herself to calm down before quickly drawing something on the paper.

In her previous life, she was not good at painting, but in order to create Ni Yun Fang, she practiced drawing many flower patterns and gradually mastered it. Not long after, she finished writing the portrait of the first person.

Yue Wang furrowed his brows and carefully examined the person on the portrait. He did not say anything but signaled Mu Yunyao to continue.

It took nearly two hours before Mu Yunyao finally put down the brush. Looking at the five figures on the table, the hatred and hostility in her eyes practically condensed into reality: “It’s these five people. Is Fourth Master still determined to kill them?”

Yue Wang took out the one in the middle and slowly said: “Yunyao, of these five people, only this one is the only one I’ve seen. As for the others, I don’t recognize them at all.”

Mu Yunyao abruptly raised her head and looked at Yue Wang in surprise, “Are you sure?”

Yue Wang did not evade the slightest, nodded, and said: “Of course. I won’t lie to you. Only this person in the middle is my subordinate, Liu Nan, a deputy general who was just promoted. He has performed many meritorious deeds in Western Guangdong. He is smart, and his skills are not bad, so I brought him to the capital this time. Currently, he is in my residence.”

Mu Yunyao’s face became paler and paler, her gaze fixed on the several people on the table. “If they’re not your subordinates, then whose people are they?”

In her previous life, she was muddle-headed when Jin Wang treated her as an item and sent her to Yue Wang’s residence. After her rebirth, she did not want to think about the tragedy that happened right before her death and had never thought about the strange things that happened. Now that she thought about it, those five people’s movements did seem a little sneaky, as though they were afraid of being found out.

Mu Yunyao widened her eyes slightly as she turned her head and carefully looked at Yue Wang, “If you find out that thereis a woman as a spy in your residence, how will you punish her?”

Yue Wang frowned: “I have people who are proficient at torture under my command. They will investigate and torture them to find out their origins and get to the bottom of it.”

Mu Yunyao fiercely sucked in a breath as her chest rose and fell non-stop. “You … Would you let someone humiliate her to death?”

“How could that be?” Yue Wang’s eyebrows were tighter. “Even though I am not a good person, I would not use such a cruel method. Yunyao, what’s wrong with you?”

Mu Yunyao supported herself with both hands on the table as the hatred in her eyes kept churning. In an instant, tears started to fall. “If it wasn’t you, then who was it?”

On that day, the horse carriage rolled over for no reason, and she fell down from the carriage, landing at the feet of Yue Wang. After that, she was brought to Yue Wang’s residence in a daze, and when she saw Yue Wang in the room, he gave her a look, but he did not seem to have any ill intentions, as if he was in an emotional state too. She was too agitated, and before she could say anything, she fainted. After waking up, she was treated as a spy...

For such a long time, she had always thought that Yue Wang ordered the execution of herself like that, but if it wasn’t him, then the answer was already obvious …

Jin Wang! It was Jin Wang!

Jin Wang had long feared Yue Wang for controlling the defense in the Capital, so he thought of many ways to pull him down. But none of them was succeeded. In the end, he thought of such a despicable and shameless scheme, sending herself to Yue Wang’s residence, then torturing herself to death and framing herself on Yue Wang’s body!

Conspiracy to taking your brother’s concubine, then cruelly tortured and killed her. Once the infamy was spread, it would never be washed away. Moreover, Jin Wang had always been good at controlling his speech, and the people he made friends with were all literary officials, so it could be said that he was using a pen as a knife and a knife to kill his enemies!

In this way, he would use his insignificant self to pull Yue Wang into a pool of muddy water.…

Jin Wang, what a great prince!

The aura around Mu Yunyao’s body was in chaos, and her tears fell even more violently. Her lower lip had already been bitten off by Mu Yunyao, and blood was seeping out.

Yue Wang was frightened. He wanted to reach out and support her, but he was afraid of offending her, so he could only call out to her: “Yunyao, what’s wrong?”

Mu Yunyao regained her senses and carefully wiped the tears off her face, “Fourth Master, Liu Nan doesn’t want his life anymore. It’s best if you let someone carefully watch him, even though some people are extremely loyal on the surface, in reality, no one knows what kind of thoughts they have. As for the other four, since they are not Fourth Master’s men, then can you help me check their identities?”

“Okay, as long as we can find traces of these four people, I will definitely tie them up and deliver them to you.”

“No need. When Fourth Master find out, just let me know.”

Yue Wang nodded his head and looked at her worriedly: “Yunyao, what’s wrong with you?”

Mu Yunyao had already dried her tears. At this moment, all of the coldness and hatred on her body had been completely retracted. Only leaving a slight tinge of red in her eyes, and she looked extremely pitiful. “I’ve thought of a few things, and I’ve understand a few people.” She knew what she had to do next.

“Yunyao ….”

Mu Yunyao raised her head to look at Yue Wang. The grudge in her heart has mostly disappeared. When she looked at him, his aura was as cold as a blade, and she only felt that he was expressly clear and transparent. She gently lifted the corner of her lips as her smile slowly seeped into the corners of her eyes: “Then I’ll need Fourth Master to take care of me in the future.”

~ I WANT TO KILL A FEW PEOPLE ~ 

The imperial physician had just come to take a look at his injury. He couldn’t wear too heavy clothes because of the burns on his back. So, Yue Wang only wore a light silk shirt over his body to avoid airtightness and aggravate the injury. At this moment, the clothes on his back were lifted, and a dense chill could be felt coming up from the inside, causing Yue Wang’s heart to tremble uncontrollably.

“Yunyao, this injury isn’t serious. I just need to rest for a few days.”

Mu Yunyao’s emotions were in turmoil. Last time, Yue Wang had personally led a group of people to cut off the salt ship and seriously injured. Back then, she had personally bandaged his injury and didn’t feel any special feelings. But this time, she felt a little distressed...

Mu Yunyao extended her finger and lightly touched the edge of his wound, causing Yue Wang to take in a deep breath unconsciously. She was so shocked that she promptly took back her finger. “Fourth Master, is it very painful?”

Yue Wang’s fingers on the brocade quilt are slightly clenched into a fist, and his ears covered by hair are red: “Pain!”

“I’ve brought some medicine to help you apply, but the wound is scalded and cannot be bandaged. Fortunately, the weather is cool these days, so the wound will heal faster.” As Mu Yunyao spoke, she gently and quickly helped Yue Wang to treat his wounds.

Yue Wang didn’t care about the wound on his body at all. Instead, he focused all of his attention on Mu Yunyao’s fingertip. Her movements were very gentle, as though a gentle breeze had brushed past and brought about a slightly numbing itch. That feeling seemed to be able to pierce through his heart, causing his expression to become even tenser.

After taking care of the wound, Mu Yunyao let out a breath of relief and gently helped Yue Wang to straighten his shirt, “Fourth Master, please be patient in the next few days and don’t let your wound get wet. It should be fine before the Autumn Hunt in September.”

“Cough....” Yue Wang suppressed his coughing twice, a hint of red appearing on his pale face.

Mu Yunyao’s heart tightened, and she couldn’t help but reach out to touch his forehead. “Could it be that Fourth Master has a fever?” Feeling the intense heat on his forehead, she immediately grabbed his wrist to check his pulse.

“It should be a fever due to injuries. I’ll write down the prescription and have Yu Heng prepare the medicinal ingredients. After drinking two sets of medicine, you should be fine.”

Yue Wang remained calm and collected as he nodded his head, trying his best to suppress the unease in his eyes. “How is Madam Su? Are her injuries serious?”

Thinking about Su Qing’s injury, a trace of gloominess flashed through Mu Yunyao’s heart. “The sprained wound on her leg is not serious, but her throat was choked by the thick smoke. I think she’ll need to rest for a while.”

“I’ve asked Yu Heng to investigate the room where the fire broke out, but he didn’t find any clues. However, if it’s an accident, then it’s a bit too much of a coincidence.”

“It’s Su Yuyi and Qi Mama.”

Thinking about how the Su family had allowed Meng Yanran to make things difficult for her, Yue Wang’s aura turned cold, “Yunyao, why did the Su family make things difficult for you? This time they are even trying to kill you. Do you notice anything strange?”

“I’m also surprisingly curious. It seems like the Su family has a deep grudge against Mother and me.” Mu Yunyao’s heart became heavier, “Right now, we can only use force to deal with the situation. The Su family wants to harm Mother and me, so I naturally will not sit here and wait to die. Let’s see who has the best methods.”

“Do you need my help?”

Mu Yunyao’s aura froze, and she lifted her eyes to look at Yue Wang. His gaze was no longer as cold as when they first met. Instead, it was filled with traces of gentleness and worry, causing her to feel a little uncomfortable unconsciously.

Yue Wang’s thoughts towards her have been so obvious. Previously, she could tell herself to keep her distance, but now that he had just saved her mother. If she was still like before, she would be ungrateful to him.

At this moment, Yue Wang was leaning on the head of the bed, while Mu Yunyao was sitting on the edge of the bed for convenience’s sake. At such a close distance, Yue Wang could clearly hear Mu Yunyao’s breathing. It was softly and shallowly as if feathers were brushing against his heart, causing his heart to feel warmth and itch.

Mu Yunyao slightly raised her head. Her clear eyes contained a trace of bewilderment and helplessness, causing others to be unable to stop their heart from feeling pity for her.

Yue Wang seemed to be bewitched. He slowly raised his hand and placed it on the side of her face, and gently rubbed his thumb across her eyes. His warm and exquisite touch had a heavy temptation, which tempted him to place his palm on her.

The warmth of her face made Mu Yunyao slightly stiff. When she came to her senses, she tried to avoid it. But in the next moment, she forcefully restrained her movements.

However, Yue Wang quickly retracted his hand, and his smile contained an unspeakable astringency, “Yunyao, you … You don’t have to be like this. I saved Madam Su voluntarily and did not rely on this favor to exchange for something from you.”

Mu Yunyao lowered her eyes, the light in her eyes rapidly changing. All sorts of complex emotions surged as if they could knock people down., However, in the next moment, she suppressed them all. “Fourth Master, you don’t plan on returning to Western Guangdong, do you?”

Yue Wang was unable to guess Mu Yunyao’s intentions and replied truthfully: “That’s right. This time, I come to the Capital, and I do not plan to go back.”

“Then... Is the Fourth Master have enough manpower in the Capital?” Mu Yunyao raised her head and looked directly into the eyes of Yue Wang. There was nervousness, caution, and even more carefully probing him.

Yue Wang’s heart tightened. At this moment, Mu Yunyao was like a mandarin duck cat that had been hurt by someone. She carefully tested her front paw and wanted to see if she could get a kind response.

Yue Wang’s suddenly turned emotionally, as his heart pounded like a drum. He deliberately lowered his voice, hoping to make himself more gentle. He did not want to scare the claws that she had just probed out away. “It’s still lacked a bit.”

Mu Yunyao sucked in a small breath as if she had made up her mind with determination. “Then does Fourth Master need a person that can help you earn silver? You must have your own plans for coming to the Capital, but you have to use silver to pave the way for every move. Those silver taels that you earned in Jingling City, if not as expected, should have cost a lot. I can help Fourth Master earn a lot of silver to support you, so that you can fulfill your wish. How about that?”

“What do you want in return?”

“When my mother and I returned to the Su family, I thought that we had found our loved ones, but in reality, the Su family viewed us as their enemies, like thorns in their eyes, thorns in their flesh, and they even tried to get rid of us. My mother and I are on our own and alone. I will help Fourth Master earn some silver taels, and Fourth Master will protect Mother and me. How about that?”

Yue Wang shook his head slightly. “Even if you don’t help me earn silver taels, I will still ensure the safety of you and Madam Su. You can also make another request.”

Mu Yunyao bit her tongue lightly, the frost in her eyes gradually spreading out. After a moment of silence, she coldly said, “I want to kill a few people, and those people are Fourth Master’s subordinates. Can you agree to that?”

Yue Wang frowned and asked in shock: “My subordinates?”

“That’s right, will Fourth Master agree?” Mu Yunyao looked at Yue Wang, the temperature in her eyes becoming colder and colder.

The time she spent together this time really made her treat Yue Wang differently. However, in her previous life, she had died a miserable death in Yue Wang’s residence, and the grudge she had with him still lingered in her heart. Although her death was not directly related to Yue Wang, it was actually done by his subordinates.

Right now, she wanted to give herself a chance, just like her mother had said. Even if she knew that there would be hardships in the future, she was still willing to give it a try. As long as Yue Wang agrees, she will try to forget the past life and have a try. However, with Yue Wang’s personality, why would he agree to such an unreasonable request just because of a single sentence…

~ I WANT TO PROTECT HER EVEN MORE ~ 

In the side room, Grand Princess Yi De waved the doctor back and let him retreat. She looked at Yue Wang, who sat on the chair. Her voice was quite serious when she speaks: "You are very brave. The fire is burning to such a degree, and you dare to rush into the fire to save people. If you are a little late, you can't escape from the fire even if you have the ability to reach the sky.”

Yue Wang said apologetically, “I’ve made Imperial Aunt worry. Am I not fine now?”

“You still dare to say? When I hear the report, I feel a lingering fear.” The Grand Princess stared at him with her phoenix-like eyes, and her tone was more worried than reproachful.

“Yunyao’s mother is trapped in the fire, and no matter what, I can’t stand idly by.”

Grand Princess Yi De looked at him for a while and couldn’t help but sigh. “With your personality, who did you followed? For that Mu Yunyao, did you not even care about your own life?”

Hearing this, Yue Wang became anxious, “Imperial Aunt, don’t get angry with Yunyao because of this matter. I was the one who volunteered to save her, and after I marry Yunyao in the future, Madam Su will be my mother-in-law. If I have the ability to save her, I will definitely do my best.”

The Grand Princess Yi De looked at him. “Am I the kind of person who would release her anger at will? I just want you to pay attention to the fact that the Capital is different from Western Guangdong. The situation here is changeable and unpredictable. Any kind of danger could happen here. Since you have taken a fancy to Mu Yunyao, you can’t just blindly protect her. Let her face what she should face it. Otherwise, the two of you won’t be able to do it in the long run.”

From this incident, it could be seen that Jun Yue already had deep roots of affection in his heart with Mu Yunyao. If someone were to pinch Mu Yunyao, then there might be more troubles in the future …

There was a trace of a warm smile on the edge of Yue Wang’s lips, “Many thanks for Imperial Aunt’s reminder. Yunyao is very powerful. It’s just that this time, it happened too suddenly, so she wasn’t prepared for it.”

“Coming to the Capital and entering this deep pool of water, you have to lift your heart up to your throat constantly. If you neglect it slightly, the consequences would be unimaginable. This time, she has you to save her. But the next time or later, don’t tell me that you can always appear in such a timely manner every time?! If Mu Yunyao does not have a way to face these dangers herself, it would not be appropriate for her to stand by your side.”

Yue Wang shook his head, and there was no looseness in his expression: “I understand what you mean, Imperial Aunt. But I care about Yunyao only because she is her, not because she is suitable or not and whether it is good for me to use in the future. If possible, I wish I could protect her and let her be safe.”

The expression on Grand Princess Yi De’s face stiffened, and after seeing Yue Wang’s resolute expression, the worry in her heart grew even more intense. “You …. I only hope that your deep love will not let you down....”

Qu Mama walked in. “Reporting to Her Royal Highness Grand Princess, Miss Mu Yunyao has come to request an audience with Her Highness. She wants to see His Royal Highness Yue Wang, and she’s now standing at the door.”

Yue Wang’s eyes lit up, his body grew even straighter, and the color of his entire body seemed to be much brighter than before.

Seeing him in such a state, Grand Princess Yi De sighed, “Since she has come to visit you, I will not disturb you here. Take a good rest, and don’t drag the wound into it. In a few days, it will be the Autumn Hunt. After you recuperate, you will go to the paddock to hunt some good furs for me. I plan to stay in the Capital for the new year. I will make some cloaks from it and wear them when that time comes.”

Yue Wang stood up and bowed, “Imperial Aunt, Yunyao’s craftsmanship skills are excellent. No matter what clothes she makes, if you wears it on your body, it would be like looking at the angels.”

Grand Princess Yi De glanced at him. “We’ll talk about it when the time comes.” With that, she held on to Qu Mama’s hand and walked out.

Mu Yunyao waited at the door for the time it took to brew a cup of tea before she saw Yu Heng walked out.

“Greetings to Miss Mu. Master has just awoken and is extremely happy to hear that you have come. Please follow me.”

“Thank you.”

Yu Heng brought Mu Yunyao to the door, and after pushing it open, he stopped in his tracks. “Miss, please come in.”

Mu Yunyao’s footsteps paused for a moment before she took the food box from the Si Shu’s hand, who had followed behind her. She said, “Wait for me at the door, and there’s no need to follow me in.”

“Yes, Miss.”

Mu Yunyao walked into the room and saw Yue Wang, who rested on the bed with his eyes closed and her breathing slightly slowed down.

He tilted his head and leaned on his side as if he was in an uncomfortable situation. There was a crease between his eyebrows, and the black clothes made his complexion look even paler. The brocade quilt covered his legs, and his long arms rested on the brocade quilt. His fingers were long, and his bones were distinct...

“Yunyao, you’re here?” Hearing her footsteps, Yue Wang opened his eyes. A faint light flashed through his eyes as if it was the first light of dawn. The brilliance was particularly gorgeous.

Mu Yunyao didn’t know how to face him. Although the two had worked together before, she was still quite cautious towards Yue Wang in private. After all, in her previous life, she had died in the residence of Yue Wang. Even though she now realized that her previous life was completely different, she could not let go of this grudge.

After spending so much time with her, Yue Wang had gradually occupied different positions in her heart. Sometimes, it would even affect her judgment and making it even harder for her to accept this feeling of losing control.

She hoped that she could do her best to keep everything under control. This way, she could protect her mother and fight against the Su family can go on smoothly. However, she can’t figure out and control such a big variable as Yue Wang.

Seeing Mu Yunyao looking at him without saying a word, Yue Wanf slightly blinked his eyes, “What’s wrong? Are you still afraid because of last night’s fire?”

Mu Yunyao regained her senses. “Thank you for your help yesterday, His Royal Highness. Otherwise, my mother would have....”

Yue Wang said with a smile: “Back then, during the new year in Jingling City, Madam Su had taken care of me in every possible way . Now that she’s in danger, I tried my best to save her from dangerously.”

“How is His Royal Highness’s injury?” Being gently looked at by Yue Yang, Mu Yunyao was a little nervous, and her hands were slightly dripping with sweat.

Yue Wang lowered his eyes slightly, and his face seemed even paler: “Nothing, it just some superficial wounds. After resting for two days, everything will be fine. It’s just that there is a lack of medicine on the mountain, and it’s rather inconvenient.”

Mu Yunyao hesitated for a moment before walking towards Yue Wang. “If Fourth Master doesn’t mind, how about you let me take a look at you?”

Hearing that Mu Yunyao suddenly changed the name he was addressed, Yue Wang’s heart shook, but he still felt helpless. Previously, he had wanted Mu Yunyao to address him as Fourth Master. But Mu Yunyao had said that there was only His Royal Highness Yue Wang in the Capital. It made him feel extremely uncomfortable in his heart.

But now that Mu Yunyao had suddenly changed her words, he felt the same discomfort in his heart. He wanted to get close to Mu Yunyao, but he did not want to get close to her because he had saved Su Qing’s life.

Yue Wang turned slightly to the side: “It was injured on my back. When I escaped, a piece of wood fell and hit me just in time.”

Mu Yunyao slightly bit the tip of her tongue. She stepped forward to pinch Yue Wang’s collar and gently took off his clothes. “Fourth Master, I apologize for my offense.”

The clothes went down, and the smell of blood became more intense. On Yue Wang’s back, there was a thick and severe burn wound. The wound emitted a unique smell from the burn wound, and the edges of the wound were black and purple. There were tiny blisters on the wound, making it look it was covered in blood and flesh. Mu Yunyao’s fingertip lightly trembled. Her heart seemed it had been pierced by a needle, causing her to feel slight pain. It was so serious...

~ FULL OF LOOPHOLES ~ 

Su Qingwu carefully observed Mu Yunyao, and only after a while did he retract his gaze. “The Baohua Temple has suddenly been set ablaze, and Yuyi is also injured, so this prayer will end today. Pack up your things, and we will head back to the residence later.”

Mu Yunyao shook her head slightly, “I’ve not finished copying the Buddhist scriptures that I copied for Grand Princess Yi De, so I need to stay for two more days. Cousin, you should bring Elder Sister Yuyi back first. Once I’ve finished copied the Buddhist scriptures, Mother and I will naturally return to the Su family.”

Su Qingwu was silent for a moment, then turned around.

Mu Yunyao sneered: I didn’t expect that Su Qingwu would just leave after saying a few words. Such a light and casual action is not like the style of the Su family, or is it better to just wait for her to return home and settle the score together?

Si Hua brought the medicine bowl over. “Miss, madam’s medicine is ready.”

Mu Yunyao withdrew her gaze, “Give it to me.”

Su Qing woke up as soon as she walked into the room. She was slowly sitting up, and when she saw Mu Yunyao wanting to speak to her, she realized that her throat was hurting so badly that she couldn’t make a sound.

“Mother, don’t move. Your throat has been choked with smoke and needs some time to recover. Don’t be in such a hurry to speak. Drink your medicine first.”

Su Qing caressed her throat and nodded. After which, she took the medicine bowl and slowly drank it up.

Mu Yunyao took the medicine bowl and placed it on the table. When she turned around, she saw Su Qing pointing outside with her finger. She couldn’t help but smile and say, “Mother, did you hear what I said to Cousin just now?”

Su Qing nodded.

“Elder Sister Yuyi was injured. Eldest Cousin wanted to take her back to the residence first and ask if we should go back with her. I thought about the Buddhist scripture that Grand Princess Yi De want me to copied had not finished, so I refused.”

Injured? Su Qing tried to recall carefully. Last night, she seemed to have seen Su Yuyi’s figure, and the other party seemed to have suffered some sort of injury.

Mu Yunyao helped Su Qing lie down and said, “Mother, you should sleep a little longer. I’ll have Si Qin bring some porridge over later. Before your throat recovers, you can only eat light food.”

Su Qing held Mu Yunyao’s hand and squeezed it slightly. She mouthed three words of Young Master Ning.

Mu Yunyao nodded: “It was dark last night. It was not convenient for me to visit him. I will take something to thank him later.”

Only then did Su Qing relax. She laid on the bed and pulled up the quilt. Not long after, she fell asleep again.

At this time, Su Yuyi was angrily tossing a medicine bowl on the ground, and her entire person seemed to have gone insane. When he saw Su Qingwu walk in with large strides, she hurriedly got up from the bed and moved to the side on the bed: “Elder Brother, where is that bitch Mu Yunyao?”

“Yuyi, don’t be so blunt.”

“What’s the point. Nothing to hide? Right now, I have the heart to hack her to death with one slash. Where’s Mu Yunyao? Why didn’t you tie her up and bring her over!” Su Yuyi was so emotional that she accidentally pulled on her arm and her face turned pale because of the pain.

“I’ll arrange for a carriage to take you back to the residence. Once we return, Mother will find the imperial physician to treat your wounds.”

 
“Elder Brother, did you hear what I said? Mu Yunyao broke my arm and even placed a dagger on my neck to kill me! Why didn’t you arrest that bitch and help me vent my anger?” Su Yuyi had nearly lost her mind. When she woke up, Qi Mama just so happened to be pressing down on her broken arm. The heart-wrenching pain caused her to be filled with terror, and what made it even more difficult for her to face it was the mess on the bed. She actually lost control of her mind due to fright…

Su Yuyi bit her lips tightly. Her heart was filled with dark clouds, lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled. Thinking of this matter, she wanted to immediately die, but her brother did not tie Mu Yunyao to avenge her, but instead wanted to send her back home!

Su Qingwu frowned. “Yuyi, this matter isn’t as simple as you think. We still need to consider long-term considerations.”

“Long-term considerations? Mu Yunyao broke my hand and even knocked out Qi Mama. Can’t you trust the words of the two of us? She was only a lowly bitch. Why did I have to be so afraid of her? Fine, if you don’t help me, I will go back to find Mother. She will definitely believe my words and help me to uphold justice!”

“There was a fire in the room. Aunt was almost trapped in it and burnt to death inside. Did you do it?” Su Qingwu asked in a low voice.

Su Yuyi’s body stiffened, then she denied anxiously: “It has nothing to do with me. It was Mu Yunyao who framed me. I was obediently resting in my room, and I didn’t even know why the fire was ignited.”

“Yuyi, don’t you feel that your words are full of loopholes?” Su Qingwu stared at her, his expression extremely cold.

Su Yuyi’s pupils shrank, but her tone was extremely unyielding. The fire from yesterday had left no evidence at all. So who could prove that it has something to do with her: “How come I am full of loopholes? Do you not trust your own sister?”

“You said that you smelled the smoke while you were sleeping, and then you saw the fire in the room, so you took advantage of the fire not strong to escape. Then why didn’t you call someone to put out the fire in the first place and inform Aunt Su Qing who was in the room, telling them to flee?”
“I… I didn’t know that Aunt Su Qing was also in the room.”

“If you really don’t know, why did you say that you didn’t see her escape when Mu Yunyao asked you?”

Su Yuyi was flustered: “Are you helping Mu Yunyao to interrogate me?”

“If I really were to help Mu Yunyao, then I wouldn’t help you hide the evidence!” Su Qingwu’s expression froze. “Although I said that the fire burnt those rooms clean, in the end, there are still some things that are left behind. For example, a metal piece that fixed the door and the window so that people can’t be opened from the inside.”

Su Yuyi’s face turned pale. She bit her lips and took two steps back.

 
Su Qingwu stared at her in disappointment. “Mother has always doted on you, and no matter what you want, she’ll bring the best to you. She slowly spoils you so that you can talk and do whatever you want regardless of propriety! No matter how famous Mu Yunyao was, she couldn’t compare to you in her background. Even if she was highly regarded by Grand Princess Yi De, she has limited influence on you. To kill Aunt Su Qing, other than provoking her insane revenge, what other benefits do you have?”

Su Yuyi was originally a little guilty, but after hearing Su Qingwu speak up for Mu Yunyao again and again, she immediately became so angry that she lost all reason: “Why am I spoiled? I want to seek justice for myself. Is it wrong too? Su Qing was fine in the end, yet you still scolded me? Is Mu Yunyao your little sister, or I’m your sister? My arm was broken by Mu Yunyao. Not only did you not help me vent my anger, you even scolded me here. What kind of bewitching soup did Mu Yunyao give you? Did you like that bitch?”

“Shut up!” Su Qingwu coldly snorted, and a suppressed pressure burst out from his body, causing Su Yuyi to be startled.

“I guessed it right....” Su Yuyi’s eyes flowed with hatred, and she didn’t dare to believe it, “Elder Brother, this is the first time I’ve seen you like this. I’ve guessed your thoughts, right? That’s why you’re so angry? That’s why you protect Mu Yunyao, and don’t help me vent my anger!”

“Think what you want. If you are willing to blow up this matter, then it will be a big deal. If you are unable to end this matter in the end, don’t blame me, your Elder Brother, for not warning you!” 

“An Elder Brother who only cares about outsiders. I don’t care. If you want to send me back to home, then I will go back.”  Su Yuyi smiled coldly, “If Mu Yunyao dares to enter the Su family’s gate, I will break her arms and break both her legs, making her life but unable to beg for death!”

Chapter 28 (2/2)

“Junior Brother... Qianxiu?”

Mu Wan was not sure she had heard correctly.

She glanced back at Liu Qianxiu. His expression was calm as always. He set down the suitcase and crouched beside the little novice.

“Qingchan, when did Master leave?” Liu Qianxiu asked.

Qingchan looked up at Mu Wan. Seeing a stranger, he grew shy and looked away.

“He just left. Shifu said you’d be here soon and told me to wait for you.”

The abbot of Qingyuan Temple, Xuan Qingzi, had gone to a Taoist temple in Jingcheng to visit a friend. He would not return until Sunday, which was why Liu Qianxiu had come early this month.

After answering, Qingchan sneaked another curious glance at Mu Wan.

Mu Wan smiled and crouched down as well.

“Hello, Qingchan. My name is Mu Wan.”

Mu Wan was beautiful, and her voice was pleasant too. To Qingchan, she seemed like a marvelous person. He put aside his curiosity and shyness and smiled back, showing two small tiger teeth.

“So you’re Sister.”

The little novice’s voice lifted like a bird in flight, full and sweet like ripe fruit.

Mu Wan’s heart melted.

She reached out and gently pinched Qingchan’s little cheek, then turned and smiled at Liu Qianxiu.

“Liu Qianxiu, your Senior Brother called me Sister.”

Liu Qianxiu looked back at her. Her shoulders were straight, her chin slightly raised, and teasing laughter danced in her eyes. He lowered his gaze, picked up her suitcase, and took it into the side room on the left.

“You’ll stay here.”

Watching his tall, upright figure from behind, Mu Wan’s smile deepened.

Beside her, Qingchan was still looking at his shidi. Then he turned back to Mu Wan and explained, “I grew up in the temple and spent more time with Master, so I’m the Senior Brother. Senior Brother and Junior Brother are based on generation, not age.”

After saying that, Qingchan slapped his little forehead.

“Oh, right. I need to tell Master that Junior Brother has arrived.”

Then he ran off to the main hall to call his master.

Mu Wan got up and walked over to Liu Qianxiu, who was opening the door to the side room.

This used to be the room Liu Qianxiu stayed in.

Once she got there, she asked him, “Then if I become a disciple too, would I have to call you Senior Brother?”

His hand paused slightly.

Liu Qianxiu turned to look at her.

Mu Wan smiled in a way that was vivid and a little wicked, her red lips moist, the corners of her eyes tinged red.

“I won’t call you Senior Brother. I’ll call you Brother instead. It sounds nicer.”

His fingers tightened a fraction, the knuckles straightening as the door swung open.

Liu Qianxiu withdrew his gaze and said, “Go in.”

Incurable Chapter 28 Part 1

Chapter 28 (1/2)

Mu Wan fell asleep.

It was as if her ears had been submerged in water. By the time Liu Qianxiu’s final sentence reached her, it had turned into only a few blurred words. She did not hear it clearly. Her consciousness kept sinking, and she drifted off.

When she woke, it was already morning.

Mu Wan came out of the bedroom to find the apartment empty. There was not even a single meow. Liu Qianxiu’s bedroom door was shut. She looked up at the time. It was already eight in the morning. He had probably gone to work.

The cats had been sent to Xu Xingkong’s place yesterday, so once again, she was the only one left in the apartment.

She walked into the kitchen and saw breakfast laid out on the table, along with a glass of orange juice.

Everything was just like the first time she had spent the night at Liu Qianxiu’s place. He had prepared breakfast for her, then gone to work, leaving her alone in the house.

And yet, something felt different.

Mu Wan’s mind was still a little hazy, as if her memory had been covered with a thin sheet of paper. She could make out only the outline of it, not the details.

Sitting on the high stool at the dining counter, she listened to the patter of rain outside and tried to remember the last thing Liu Qianxiu had said before she fell asleep the night before.

She took a bite of her sandwich and set her phone on the cool marble tabletop beside her.

He had worked so late yesterday, and this morning he had gone straight back to work. He was probably busy now. Instead of calling, Mu Wan sent him a text.

Mu Wan: Liu Qianxiu.

Unexpectedly, he replied almost at once.

Taoist Liu: Mm.

A smile curved at her lips against the rim of the glass.

Resting one arm on the marble counter, feeling its cool smoothness seep into her fingertips, she listened to the rain and called him.

He picked up quickly.

There was the sound of papers being turned on the other end. Mu Wan asked, “Are you busy?”

The rustle of papers stopped abruptly.

“Not too bad,” Liu Qianxiu said.

“Oh.”

She paused, then asked, “Are we going to the Taoist temple this afternoon? Do I need to prepare anything? I’m free today, so I can go buy it first.”

Someone knocked on the door. Xiao Tan entered in response. Liu Qianxiu lifted his eyes to look at him, then lowered them again to the papers in front of him.

“Buy a few books you like,” he said. “The signal there is bad. You won’t be able to go online on your phone.”

“I don’t have any books I like,” Mu Wan said after thinking for a while. “I’ll just watch you read.”

Liu Qianxiu pressed his lips together and said nothing.

As expected, silence fell on the other end of the line.

Almost every time she said something like that, Liu Qianxiu responded with silence.

Mu Wan rubbed her fingertip against the marble tabletop, the chill of the stone soaking into the whorls of her fingerprints.

“Last night, you said something to me,” she said. “But then I fell asleep, and I can’t remember what it was. What did you say?”

Liu Qianxiu looked up at Xiao Tan. Xiao Tan pointed at his watch. They had to go to a meeting.

“It wasn’t anything important,” Liu Qianxiu said. “I’ll be back at one this afternoon. Eat something on your own. Once I’m back, we’ll go straight to the temple. I have to go to a meeting now.”

“Mm.” Her voice dipped with obvious disappointment.

His gaze lowered slightly.

Liu Qianxiu ended the call, gathered the materials at hand, stood up, and said to Xiao Tan, “Let’s go.”

“Miss Mu?” Xiao Tan asked as he opened the door.

The two of them headed for the conference room. Nurses and patients they passed greeted them along the way. Liu Qianxiu nodded in acknowledgment one by one, then finally answered Xiao Tan’s question.

“Yes.”

Xiao Tan had heard enough of the call just now to understand. Once he confirmed it was Mu Wan, he was not exactly surprised.

Liu Qianxiu was cool and clear as water. Mu Wan’s warmth and brightness suited him quite well.

Even so, he still found it a little unexpected. Looking at Liu Qianxiu, he smiled and said, “I didn’t expect you’d take her to the Taoist temple.”

“Mm.” Liu Qianxiu answered lightly. “She wanted to go, so I’m taking her.”

After hanging up, Mu Wan did not believe it had been something unimportant.

After hanging up, she thought about it for a while longer. The outline of the memory grew clearer and clearer, but she still could not pierce that thin sheet over it.

Since she could not make sense of it, she gave up for now.

After finishing breakfast and tidying the kitchen, she left Liu Qianxiu’s apartment and went home first to get her luggage.

He had said that once he got back from work, they would head straight to the temple. That probably meant they were pressed for time. So Mu Wan decided to get her suitcase from home and bring it over first so that they could leave directly from his place later.

When she left Liu Qianxiu’s apartment, the rain was still light. By the time she got home, it had already turned into a downpour. In rain like that, even with an umbrella, she would end up half-soaked, especially while dragging luggage.

There was still time, so she was not in a hurry. She stayed home waiting for the rain to ease up and, while she was at it, looked up Qingyuan Temple online.

Xiacheng had Taoist temples and Buddhist temples, and because the city was prosperous, incense offerings were strong there. But she had never heard of Qingyuan Temple before.

She searched for it on the map but found only Qingyuan Mountain.

Xiacheng’s terrain was the northern mountains and the southern sea. Qingyuan Mountain was in the northern district. The entire northern district was mountainous, part of the Sushan range. A river called the Su River cut through the middle of it.

The scenery there was beautiful—layer upon layer of mountains, a river running across them, the landscape especially striking.

Xiacheng had developed rapidly and extensively, but the Sushan area had remained unchanged. Apart from a few resorts, the deeper parts remained undeveloped.

Qingyuan Mountain was located in the innermost part along the Su River, untouched by development. The mountain itself was not high. At its base was a small town. The town should have internet access, but the signal on the mountain itself was probably weak.

Mu Wan had grown up in Xiacheng, yet this was the first time she had realized such a place existed.

Given Liu Qianxiu’s temperament, it made sense. He did not really count as a Taoist priest, at most a man of the secular world engaged in quiet cultivation. He was not chasing immortality. He was only seeking peace of mind.

“Peace of mind…”

Mu Wan murmured the words to herself, catching onto the key phrase. A flash of realization lit her mind. Last night, what Liu Qianxiu had said had seemed to be related to peace of mind—

Just as she was about to piece it together, her phone rang. Her train of thought was cut off. She gave a regretful sigh and picked up the phone.

It was Gao Mei.

Gao Mei had been out of town filming the past two days, not working at the Xiacheng studio lot. She had returned last night, and today they were both supposed to be on the same production again—but when she got to set, Mu Wan was nowhere to be found.

“They cut your scenes?” Gao Mei sounded incredulous. “Your part was pretty important. They just cut it like that?”

“Mm.” Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Mu Wan watched the rain outside begin to ease. “I don’t have any filming this week. As for next week, Li Nan still hasn’t told me anything.”

By then, Gao Mei also sensed that something was off. But her thinking was similar to Li Nan’s. Mu Wan had always kept her head down in the industry. Because she usually played supporting roles, she had never stirred up trouble. No director or lead actor had ever had reason to target her. So why would she suddenly have no scenes all week?

“Do you know what’s going on?” Gao Mei asked. “You must have some idea.”

“Mm,” Mu Wan said.

Hearing that, Gao Mei became anxious. “Then what are you going to do? No scenes this week—and maybe none next week either. If you keep not working, how are you supposed to survive?”

“I’ll deal with it after I get back next week.”

Mu Wan already had a plan, but since it involved family matters rather than something inside the industry, she did not say more.

She was the type who had always found ways to resolve things on her own. Otherwise, with a face like hers, there was no way she could have spent so many years working in the industry without incident.

“ You’re going somewhere this week?” Gao Mei asked.

“Yeah. To a Taoist temple, to cultivate my body and mind.”

Mu Wan said it, then asked, “Do you have any good novels to recommend?”

Gao Mei loved reading novels. In recent years, online novel adaptations have become a huge trend, and Gao Mei has even landed roles in a few adaptations of books she loves. She had been thrilled.

“Of course I do,” Gao Mei said. Then she froze. “Wait. You’re going to a Taoist temple to read romance novels? Are you going there to cultivate yourself or to fall in love?”

That question hit dead center.

Mu Wan laughed.

She really was going there to fall in love.

Though it was a rather one-sided love.

After getting a reading list from Gao Mei, Mu Wan went out and bought a few books, then packed them into her suitcase.

Once that was done, it was already noon. Mu Wan ate something simple outside, then dragged her luggage over to Liu Qianxiu’s apartment to wait for him.

The surgery took longer than expected, so he got home later than planned.

When he returned, Mu Wan was sitting at the low table reading. Of course, she was not reading the Dao De Jing. The book in her hands had a much lighter-colored cover. It was clearly a novel.

The moment Liu Qianxiu stepped inside, Mu Wan looked up. She closed the book, got up from the rug, and asked, “You’re back. Do you want to rest for a while?”

He had just come out of surgery. Mentally and physically, he had to be tired.

But after she asked, he only shook his head.

“No. We’ll leave now.”

Mu Wan had little with her—just a small suitcase and the book in her hand. Liu Qianxiu had even less, only a black backpack.

The two of them carried their things to the car, and Liu Qianxiu drove toward the Sushan range in the northern district.

It was only one in the afternoon, and traffic was smooth. It had rained in the morning, then cleared for a while, but now the sky had clouded over again.

Mu Wan had checked the map. It would probably take about two hours to drive to Qingyuan Town at the foot of the mountain, and then another climb up the mountain to reach the temple. They should arrive around four or five.

The road stretched out wide ahead of them. The car was quiet.

Mu Wan had not put her novel away. After glancing at it, she raised her head and asked, “Is your shixiong easy to get along with?”

The last time she had asked, Liu Qianxiu had said that his shixiong was the only one there at the temple.

His shixiong had probably been cultivating there all along and was surely far more Taoist in temperament than Liu Qianxiu. Mu Wan was following Liu Qianxiu there, not to cultivate at all, and was even bringing romance novels to read. She suspected his shixiong might not think much of her.

“More or less,” Liu Qianxiu said.

They were stopped at a red light. Liu Qianxiu glanced at the book in her hand.

“Even if he isn’t easy to get along with, it’s fine,” Mu Wan said. She looked at Liu Qianxiu and added, “Once we get there, I’ll just stay with you. As long as I’m only dealing with you, I’ll be fine.”

The light turned green. Liu Qianxiu looked back at the road.

“Mm.”

By three in the afternoon, they arrived in Qingyuan Town. Liu Qianxiu drove for another half hour before finally reaching Qingyuan Mountain.

He parked beside a small thatched hut at the foot of the mountain. Then the two of them got out and prepared to hike up.

The sky was still overcast, but the mountain air was far cooler and cleaner than the air in the city.

At the foot of Qingyuan Mountain was a path paved with blue stone slabs. Their surfaces were rough, showing that few people walked there. The path wound all the way upward like steps leading into the heavens.

The climb took them an hour.

At the top stood a Taoist temple.

In front of the temple was a flat patch of ground, packed hard with earth. It had just rained, so the ground was damp, littered with scattered leaves. To the left of the temple stood an old pine tree, its crown broad and dense, its shadow sheltering the stone table and benches beneath it.

Mu Wan’s breathing was uneven from the climb.

She turned and looked out below. The entire Sushan range spread before her eyes, and the Su River wound on and on toward the east.

Distant mountains. Flowing water.

The view cleared the heart.

She had not even stepped inside yet, and already she felt much calmer.

Compared with her, Liu Qianxiu seemed perfectly at ease. His expression had barely changed, and even his breathing remained steady. He had carried her suitcase the whole way up.

Tall and straight, he stood before the temple doors and pushed them open.

Mu Wan came back to herself and followed him inside.

Qingyuan Temple was not large.

The courtyard was paved with uneven flagstones. In the center stood an incense burner. Facing the gate was the main hall. Inside were the statues of the deities, and beside them a low table and prayer cushions.

On both the left and right sides of the main hall were side halls. There were four rooms in total, two of them with doors and windows tightly shut. Those were probably the rooms for resting.

A narrow path ran beside the main hall and led toward the rear.

Ordinary Taoist temples usually had three levels, each dedicated to different Taoist patriarchs. But Qingyuan Temple was small and simple. There was only one main hall, and the three patriarchs were all enshrined together there.

As soon as they stepped through the gate, a little novice ran out of the main hall.

He looked only seven or eight years old, with long hair twisted into a bun and secured with a wooden pin. His small face was clean and delicate. Dressed in a water-blue Taoist robe and black cloth shoes, he looked as if he had been painted directly into the landscape of the temple.

When he saw who had arrived, he hurried toward them. Once he reached Liu Qianxiu’s side, he tipped his head back and called out in a bright, crisp voice,

“Junior Brother Qianxiu.”

~ SU YUYI’S SOUL DISPERSED ~ 

Feeling that the time is almost up, Si Shu and Si Hua lifted the quilt and put their hands on Su Yuyi’s neck, “Miss, Miss Su passed out and...” As the two spoke, they covered Su Yuyi’s legs with the quilt to cover the water stains on her body, which had a strange smell.

If others were to see the current appearance of the Eldest Miss of the Su family, they would probably laugh for three months without eating.

Mu Yunyao nodded, and her gaze landed on the tightly tied-up Qi Mama. She walked over and squatted down, “Elder Sister Yuyi came in a hurry to this place. Eldest Aunt has always pampered her so she won’t come into contact with too many dirty tricks. But you’re different. You follow Eldest Aunt for a long time. It’s all your idea, isn’t it, to lead my mother back to the side room and set it on fire?”

Qi Mama shook her head crazily, trembling with fear. “Ugh …”

“There is also the powder that stuns my mother and Si Qi, which Eldest Aunt told you to bring it, didn’t she? As for what she wanted to do, let me think about it ... Eldest Aunt had people buy over ten hooligans. Those people are born crafty and commit all sorts of crimes … Hm, Eldest Aunt should have told you two plans. First, If my mother and I will always be together, you should find a chance to use the medicinal powder on us and then throw us into the hands of those hooligans. I’m afraid that my mother and I will suffer a fate worse than death. Second, you should separate my mother and me so that you can take care of us one by one ... Just like this fire. An unexpected fire would could cause people to not even have a trace of their bones left. It’s really a vicious mind.”

The expression in Qi Mama’s eyes when she looked at Mu Yunyao grew more and more alarmed.

Mu Yunyao looked at Si Hua and motioned for her to move the cloth away that had been stuffed in Qi Mama’s mouth.

 
Qi Mama subconsciously opened her mouth to scream, but she was slashed at her throat with a hand knife by Si Shu.

The intense pain made Qi Mama immediately bend down, unable to make a single sound.

“Qi Mama, you’ve been by Eldest Aunt’s side for a long time, so you should be a smart person. Do you think I’ll give you the chance to yell out?”

Qi Mama kept bending down to beg for mercy to Mu Yunyao. Her face was covered in cold sweat and tears, making her look especially miserable. If she had known earlier that Mu Yunyao was such a vicious and wicked person, she would have thought twice about it. Terrifying, too terrifying!

“Answer my question honestly, and I’ll spare your life. How about it?”

Qi Mama quickly nodded her head. Mu Yunyao was an evil spirit. She could even harm Eldest Miss so she wouldn’t hold back on the life of a servant. As long as she could survive, she would agree to anything Mu Yunyao asked her to do.

“Was my guess right?”

Qi Mama nodded her head. Although there was some discrepancy, Eldest Madam was like what Mu Yunyao had guessed and wanted to deal with Su Qing and her in this way.

Mu Yunyao sneered, and the aura around her body became even colder, “Other than Eldest Aunt hiring those hooligans, did she also let any of the two inner sect experts to make a move?”

Inner sect expert? Qi Mama was taken aback for a moment and quickly shook her head. Most experts are not willing to be involved in the Imperial Court. If they really were here, why would they take such a huge risk and deal with Mu Yunyao after a few twists and turns?

If it wasn’t the Eldest Madam, then who was the culprit?

Mu Yunyao’s eyebrows twitched. The sky had already begun to light up, so she couldn’t afford to delay any longer. “Si Shu, Si Hua, let’s do it.”

“Yes, Miss.” Si Shu walked forward and knocked out Qi Mama, then pulled her to the bedside, making the appearance that she had crushed Su Yuyi’s arm and quickly left with Mu Yunyao.

When Mu Yunyao returned to the room, Su Qing was still deeply asleep. She sat on the side for a while to guard. After hearing Si Qin’s reminder, she then went to bathe and change her clothes.

After staying up all night, the anger in her heart also radiated. Soaking in the warm water, Mu Yunyao felt waves of drowsiness invade her, causing her to yawn uncontrollably. Her eyes were filled with a watery light as she forced herself to stand up and wear good clothes. She slightly stretched her arms and felt her entire body ache.

Si Qi stepped forward to support her, “Miss, are you alright?”

“Nothing’s wrong, I think...” Mu Yunyao thought back to what her mother had said. She had said that Yue Wang had injured himself in order to save her. Now she wanted to visit him, but she didn’t know where he lived...

“Si Qin, remember carefully what that monk who came to inform you of my accident looks like. Then, draw a portrait and look for the monk in charge of of Baohua Temple to confirm it.” Although she felt that she couldn’t find him, she still had to try her luck.

“Yes, this servant will go down now to draw him.”

“Good, and ... Forget it, I’ll go and look for it myself. “

Si Shu probed from the side, “Miss, do you want to inquire about Fourth Master’s residence?”

Mu Yunyao paused for a moment before nodding, “Do you know where he is?”

“In the easternmost side room of Baohua Temple, those rooms are usually not open to pilgrims. Grand Princess Yi De lives there as well, so Fourth Master lives in the courtyard next door.”

Mu Yunyao slightly bit her lower lip. She unconsciously extended her hand to wipe the hair by her ear. “I understand. When Mother wakes up in a bit, I’ll say a word to her and then go visit Fourth Master.”

Before Su Qing woke up, there was already a ruckus outside.

Mu Yunyao slightly raised her eyes, a faint smile on her lips. After a while, Su Qingwu arrived and knocked on the door.

“Miss?” Si Shu was a bit worried. They didn’t kill Su Yuyi and Qi Mama to silence them, and now the two of them must have told Su Qingwu about what had happened. They might have come to cause trouble.

“Mother is still sleeping, and it’s not good to be disturbed. I’ll go out and see him.”

When Mu Yunyao walked out of the room, she saw Su Qingwu, with a cold complexion, standing at the door. He wore a light blue robe, his posture was straight, and his face was handsome, but the aura around him was so cold, with an indescribable pressure.

“Greetings, Cousin.”

Su Qingwu seriously sized up Mu Yunyao, not letting go of even the slightest emotion from her face. However, other than a faint smile, he couldn’t see anything else. “Yuyi’s hand is broken. She was frightened, and she’s even sick now.”

Mu Yunyao raised her eyes in surprise, “Wasn’t it fine yesterday? How can he break his hand after only one night?”

Su Qingwu frowned tightly, her eyes filled with shock and bewilderment. “She said that it was you who broke her hand, and you threatened to kill her too?”

Mu Yunyao blinked, her expression seeming to have some lingering fear. “I haven’t come out rom the room for the entire night and have concentrated on taking care of my mother. Did Cousin just get so scared that she was confused. Is she just grabbed me so casually?”

“Even Qi Mama said it was you!”

“Then I said it was her. She didn’t take good care of Elder Sister Yuyi and was afraid that Eldest Aunt would scold her when they go back, so she came up with some rotten ideas like this!”

Su Qingwu looked at Mu Yunyao for a long time, but he could not identify anything. “Mu Yunyao, you are also a member of the Su family, so you should understand that the truth that everyone is prosperous and everyone is damaged.”

“Cousin is joking. My surname is Mu, not Su!” She has never regarded herself as Su’s family member!

~VENGEANCE MUST BE AVENGED WITH ONE'S OWN HANDS, AND HATRED MUST BE PAID FACE TO FACE! ~ 

The darkness of the night gradually grew thinner. The light of dawn had already begun to appear on the skyline.

Mu Yunyao stood up and gently tidied up her dress. The clothes drenched in cold sweat earlier were now completely dry by themselves and made her feel extremely uncomfortable because they stick to her body, but she didn’t plan to change them. She strode towards the door. “Si Shu, Si Hua, you follow me to see Elder Sister Yuyi.”

Liu Liang stepped forward: “Mistress, I will go with you.”

“How about your injury?”

“It doesn’t matter for the time being.”

“Alright.” Seeing his resolute attitude, Mu Yunyao didn’t force him away. The things she had prepared earlier were all burnt in the room. Fortunately, she still had some left on her body just in case.

Su Yuyi had been sleeping very restlessly. In her dreams, she would always remember the moment when Mu Yunyao was looking at her with a ruthless gaze. Just as she was half asleep, she suddenly discovered a figure sitting beside the bed, causing her shocked and hurriedly wake up. She opened her mouth to cry out in alarm but was stopped by a dagger embedded with a gem and forcefully swallowed that cry of surprise as she gulped it down.

Su Yuyi’s eyes widened, borrowing the light from outside the window, she was finally able to clearly see the figure in front of her: “Mu Yunyao?”

“Cousin, are you curious to see me?” Mu Yunyao slightly turned her head with a slight smile on her face, but it didn’t seem to be warm at all, causing others who saw it to feel a chill in their hearts.

“What are you going to do?” Su Yuyi couldn’t help trembling as she looked outside with a slight gaze. She wanted to find Qi Mama, who had been keeping watch for her. But she found that she was being tied up and thrown onto the ground, unable to utter a single word with a cloth blocking her mouth.

Mu Yunyao’s smile became even wider, “Cousin’s words are surprisingly strange. If I come to see you at this time, what else can I do? Naturally, it’s to avenge my mother.”

“What revenge? Why did you come to me? I didn’t do anything sorry to your mother.”

“Cousin, why are you lying to me now? You’re the one who did harm to my mother, and you set the fire as well. Why did you forget what you did so quickly?”

“You’re lying!” Su Yuyi quickly denied it. “I’ve been resting in my room and didn’t know anything when I fell asleep. When I woke up, the fire had already started. This had nothing to do with me.”

Mu Yunyao chuckled. “Cousin’s appearance of not admitting to the debt at all is really disgusting. Before, I asked you if you saw my mother. Do you remember how you answered?”

“What?” Su Yuyi quickly thought about it, and then her face turned pale.

“You remember now?” Mu Yunyao held the dagger and gently moved it forward. The sharp dagger carried a ghastly chill and immediately left a thin line of blood on Su Yuyi’s neck. “You said that you didn’t notice, but you asked if my mother didn’t escape?”

Su Yuyi felt pain in her neck, and her whole body trembled more and more. Her voice trembled, “I don’t understand what you’re saying. Who remembered what they said in that moment of panic?”

“It’s because of this panic that people can’t lie.” Mu Yunyao’s eyes filled with murderousness. “You came back earlier than my mother. If you had been sleeping, you probably wouldn’t have known that my mother had returned to the side room and wouldn’t have known that she had escaped or not!”

Su Yuyi wanted to shake her head, but the dagger was tightly pressed against her neck, causing her not dare to move at all: “Don’t speak nonsense, I don’t know anything! Mu Yunyao, I’m your cousin. The legitimate daughter of the Su family and the Eldest Miss of the Su family. If you dare to even touch a single hair on my head, Grandmother and Mother will definitely not let you off!”

Mu Yunyao laughed lightly, her eyes filled with hostility. “Are you threatening me?”

Su Yuyi thought that Mu Yunyao was afraid and couldn’t help but sneer: “What I said was the truth. Although your mother is Grandmother’s biological daughter, she has been living out for so many years, so Grandmother has no feelings at all for you. Furthermore, your father is born in the countryside, and his status is low, so Grandmother doesn’t like you at all. If you dare touch me, I will definitely complain to Grandmother when I go back. Do you think she’s helping me or helping you, the cheap granddaughter who depends on others! “

Mu Yunyao clicked her tongue, “You did remind me. I will say that I accidentally cut your neck with a dagger. It seems like you hold a grudge against me in your heart. When you return to the Su family, you will definitely sue me. Since that was the case, I might as well just kill you right here and now. The dead won’t say a word, won’t you?”

Su Yuyi’s eyes widened in fear. She wanted to see the meaning of this joke from Mu Yunyao’s expression, but her clear eyes filled with killing intent. It was so cold that it seemed to be mixed with ice and snow. “You....”

Mu Yunyao raised her head and looked towards the window. The sky was already gradually getting brighter. “Elder Sister Yuyi, the sky is about to brighter, so I don’t have much time to talked with you.”

“What are you going to do?”

“I don’t like to drag my feet the most and dislikes procrastination. After all, grudges are a form of suppression. If you accumulate too much, you will inevitably crush people. So if I have any hatred, I usually avenge it face to face. You dared to reach your hand to my mother’s side and almost killed her. If I don’t get revenge, I will toss and turn, so....”

As soon as Mu Yunyao finished speaking, she pulled over the quilt from the side and covered Su Yuyi’s face. Then, she placed half of her hand on the bed and let her forearm hang in the air. Then, presses her knee against the hanging little arm.

“Ka Cha!” A bone-cracking sound was heard.

“Ugh …” Su Yuyi struggled violently. She wanted to scream, but her mouth and nose were blocked by the quilt.

She struggled too hard, causing Mu Yunyao to be thrown to the side due to her lack of strength. Si Shu and Si Hua stepped forward and held Su Yu Shi down, not allowing her to move.

Mu Yunyao took out a handkerchief and lightly wiped off the blood on the dagger. After tying it back to her leg, she patted her hands and looked towards Su Yuyi with a smile as she said, “Elder Sister Yuyi, you extended your hand towards my mother today,so I broke your hand. It’s especially fair, right?”

Su Yuyi was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat. Her eyes widened in fear as her face contorted slightly. “Ugh … Devil.” Mu Yunyao was a Devil!

Mu Yunyao sat on the bedside and lowered her eyes to looked at Su Yuyi, “Many things have one and two. Why are there two if they are one. You harmed my mother once, so you must want to harm her a second time. Furthermore, I broke your hand today. This new hatred and old grievances are superimposed, and I really can’t rest assured that your life will be right. Si Shu, Si Hua, send Eldest Miss Su to the streets on the road. She is a legitimate daughter of the Su family, so don’t let her die disgracefully, leave her with an intact corpse...”

“Oh... Oh...Ugh…” Su Yuyi’s eyes widened as her face contorted in fear. She struggled to beg for mercy, but her mouth was tightly sealed, and she was unable to make a sound.

Si Shu and Si Hua took the brocade quilt from the side and placed it on Su Yu Yi’s head. No matter how much she struggled, she did not relax.

After a long while, Su Yuyi’s struggling became weaker and weaker...

~ UNDERSTAND THE CAUSE AND EFFECT ~ 

Su Qingwu had already made up his mind to send Su Yuyi back to the residence first, but seeing Mu Yunyao like this, he didn’t dare to take the risk. He was afraid that Mu Yunyao would get angry and make a move on the road in anger.

Su Yuyi felt that Yunyao’s words were pressing down on her internally and externally. She felt panicked in her heart for no reason, “If I’m not going back, then I won’t trouble little sister Yunyao to take care of me. You should take care of Aunt first.”

“Judging from Eldest Brother’s expression, he probably doesn’t plan to bring Eldest Sister back to the residence first. So, I can go back and take care of mother without worry.” After Mu Yunyao finished speaking, she turned around and went forward to support Su Qing. She then followed the Monk of Baohua Temple to the newly arranged room.

When they arrived at the newly arranged room, Mu Yunyao helped Su Qing to sit down. She then turned her head and instructed Si Shu at the side, “Go take a look where did Eldest Brother arrange Su Yuyi to rest?”

Su Qing hurriedly held onto Mu Yunyao’s hand. “Yao’er?”

Mu Yunyao raised her head with a smile on her face, but it didn’t have the usual pure warmth. Instead, it emitted an indescribable baleful aura. “Mother, you don’t need to worry. I know what I’m doing.”

Si Shu hurriedly nodded her head, got up, and walked outside.

Su Qing’s ankle was only slightly sprained, and it wasn’t that severe. It would be better to recuperate slowly for a while. What was more troublesome was her throat, which was burned by the smoke. She would probably have to suffer a little bit before she recovered.

Jin Wang sent a doctor to come over and sent someone to comfort her. Mu Yunyao didn’t refuse the doctor’s offer to help Su Qing treat her injuries. She waited until he had finished prescribing the medicine before she added a few more herbs. Then, she let Si Qin boil the medicine. Mu Yunyao purposely added some sleeping aid to the medicine, so Su Qing fell asleep not long after. Seeing that Su Qing was sleeping soundly, Mu Yunyao stood up and went to the outer room to sit down. Si Qin and Si Qin hurriedly went forward to kneel on the ground. Their faces were full of shame as they quietly waited for their punishment.

After a long time, Mu Yunyao finally spoke. “Tell me everything what happened tonight in full detail.”

“Yes, Miss.” Si Qin opened her mouth first. “After Miss went to help Grand Princess Yi copy the Buddhist scriptures, I accompanied Madam to drink some tea and snacks in the room. Afterward, she went to the prayer hall to chant the Buddhist scriptures and pray according to yesterday’s time. After a while, Miss Su said that her leg hurt, so Young Master asked her to go back. After about an hour later, while Si Cha and I were guarding outside, a monk suddenly appeared. He said that Miss was accidentally hurt by a bookcase in the Scripture Pavilion and asked me to help him. When the servant thought of Si Qi guarding Madam, I immediately rushed to the Scripture Pavilion. Afterward, Miss knew all about it.”

Mu Yunyao’s eyes seemed to be filled with ice crystals, the light in her eyes rippling yet filled with chilliness. “What about Liuliang? Isn’t he protecting you from the shadows?”

“This servant doesn’t know.”

Mu Yunyao remained silent, and the room immediately quietened down. After about a cup of tea, footsteps could be heard at the door. Si Hua went up to open the door and saw Liu Liang standing at the door.

Mu Yunyao raised her eyes, her gaze her eyes deep and unwavering. “Liu Liang, where have you been?”

Liu Liang walked into the room and knelt down, “Reporting to Mistress, I have been lured away and have fallen into an ambush. Cough cough....” As he said this, he couldn’t help but cough twice, and a small trickle of blood seeped out from the corner of his lips.

“With your skill, how many people’s ambush could injure you to such an extent?”

“A dozen or so lackeys, plus three inner sect experts.”

“What about those people?”

“Dead.”

Mu Yunyao’s eyes moved, “Have you cleaned up the corpses? Did you find any clues?”

“I’ve interrogated them to find out who they were. They told me that they were bribed, but they didn’t know who it was. They only said that the person had a mole on his brow. After being injured by me, those two experts from the inner sect experts saw that they had no way to escape, so they directly killed themselves without giving an explanation, and there was no obvious mark on their bodies....” As he said this, he couldn’t help but cough twice, and his face turned even paler. “Please punish me, Mistress.”

“Two inner sect experts....” Mu Yunyao slightly frowned. Those ten or so hooligans might have been ordered to be found by the Eldest Madam. But what about those two inner sect experts? Was he driven by the Eldest Madam, or was there someone else secretly interfering?

Si Shu also rushed back, “Reporting to Miss, this servant has found out where Eldest Miss Su is.”

Mu Yunyao nodded as she looked at the three people kneeling on the ground. “You three can stand up.”

Si Qin and Si Qi looked at each other, bit their lips, and kneeled on the ground without making a sound. Liu Liang did not have the slightest reaction and continued kneeling with his head down. Mu Yunyao looked at the three of them and spoke once again, “I believe that the three of you are loyal to Mother and me. I also know that this matter happened so suddenly and that you all did not intentionally cause this situation. Fortunately, Mother was fine and was only slightly injured. It’s just that a deliberate calculation of unintentional consequences. I just blame those enemies for being too mean.”

“Miss, please punish this servant. If you don’t punish this servant, then this servant’s heart will never be at peace.”

Mu Yunyao’s eyebrows moved as she lowered her eyes slightly, “Since that’s the case, then I’ll punish you with three months of wages. With this lesson, I believe that you won’t make the same mistake the next time. Liu Liang, your injuries are quite severe, go and take care of yourself, don’t leave any root of illness.”

Liu Liang raised his head and said with an uneasy look, “Mistress, Liu Liang should be punished...”

“What, all of you are starting to feel uneasy even though I’m not punishing you all?” Mu Yunyao let out a faint sigh as she faced him and said, “This is Baohua Temple. After listening to the Buddhist scriptures for the past few days, my heart is unavoidably a little bit more lenient. Your punishment is three months’ worth of wages, and also, if you don’t chase after them and kill them, those people may have tried to kill Mothe. You haven’t really done anything wrong. I can still tell the difference between right and wrong.”

“... Liu Liang thanks Mistress. “

“Get up. The smell of blood on your body is too strong. Go down and bandage your wound first. I will prescribe some medicine to restore internal strength and heal the wound. Someone will send it over to you later.”

“Thank you, Mistress.” He looked at Mu Yunyao and saw that she was safe and sound. Only then did the fear in his heart slowly dissipate.

He heard that in Baohua Temple, there was a big fire, and it was in Mu Yunyao’s room at that. He was flustered and was injured by someone while the enemy looked for an opening. He rushed back all the way, and his heart trembled with cold. When he confirmed that Mu Yunyao was safe, it gradually stabilized. This time, those people were targeting Madam, and some were secretly trying to save her. What if the next time those people attacked Madam, and no one happened to protect them? Just thinking of this result made him unable to accept it. It was as if his heart had returned to its previous empty state. Liu Liang gritted his teeth secretly and suppressed the blood in his chest several times. This was enough to teach him a lesson. He would never make the same mistake again!

~ YUE WANG SAVES PEOPLE ~ 

Mu Yunyao quietly stood there, trying her best to open her eyes wide so that she could clearly see the situation within the great fire. Her entire body was surrounded by a heavy wave of grief. At this time, she didn’t shed tears, but it suddenly occurred to people that there were words of Great Compassion and Silence. “Miss, please don’t do this. It’s all my fault. Iit’s all this servant’s fault....” Si Qin raised her hand and slapped herself twice. Previously, Miss clearly warned her that she couldn’t leave Madam’s side, but she was still too careless. She didn’t expect that such a thing happened just after she left for a short time.

Su Qingwu quickly walks to Mu Yunyao. As soon as he wants to say something, he sees Su Yuyi being helped by Qi Mama. She is pale, with tears on her face, and her skirt is dirty. She looks a little embarrassed: “Elder Brother.”

“Yuyi, are you injured?”

Su Yuyi shook her head, her tears falling non-stop: “My body isn’t feeling well, I wanted to rest in my room for a while, but when I was falling asleep, I smelled smoke. Luckily I woke up in time, and escaped while the fire was not getting bigger. Otherwise…… I won’t have a chance to see you, Elder Brother. “

“What about Aunt? Did you see her?”

“I didn’t notice. Did Aunt not escape?”

Mu Yunyao suddenly turned around, her cold gaze locked onto Su Yuyi’s body. The dense hostility in her gaze was like the edge of a blade, capable of cutting a person into a bloody mess.

After meeting Mu Yunyao’s gaze, Su Yuyi abruptly took two steps back. Just now, she almost thought that Mu Yunyao would cut open her throat, but after reacting, she became even more furious in her heart, “Cousin Yunyao, you must be sosad.”

“When did you leave the prayer hall?” Mu Yunyao’s voice was hoarse, and she spoke extremely slowly as if every word was squeezed out of her throat.

“I had not recovered from my previous illness. But today, I’ve knelt for another day. At night, I can’t bear it anymore, so Elder Brother, since he doted on me, asked me to come back early.”

“How long have you been back?”

“Cousin Yunyao, what is the meaning of this? Are you questioning me? “ Su Yuyi frowned.

The baleful aura around Mu Yunyao grew even stronger, “Answer me! How long have you been back?”

Su Yuyi originally didn’t want to answer, but under Mu Yunyao’s forceful gaze, his heart couldn’t help but tremble: “It’s been more than an hour. Is there a problem with that?”

Mu Yunyao tightly clenched her fist. Her palm was pierced through by a fingernail, and blood quickly flowed out. “Damn you....”

“Miss, look!” Si Qin and the others exclaimed. They hurriedly pulled Mu Yunyao to look to the west, “It’s Madam!”

Mu Yunyao suddenly trembled, and her lips couldn’t help but tremble. She tried twice before finally turning around and following the direction that Si Qin indicated. Her tears fell down.

Mother. It’s Mother!

The pressure around her body suddenly receded, and all kinds of noisy voices once again drifted to her ears. The moment she saw Su Qing, she felt that she had come back to life.

Si Qin hurriedly supported Mu Yunyao as they walked up to welcome her. “That’s great. Madam is fine!” As long as Madam was there, Miss would not reveal that frightening expression. Miss had always been serene and beautiful in front of Madam. They had always thought that this was the real appearance of Miss. However, just now, upon hearing the news that Madam might lose her life in the sea of fire, the aura around Miss suddenly changed. She was gloomy, cold, and angry, as if that the Shura hall is spreading out slowly...

Mu Yunyao rushed forward and suddenly hugged Su Qing. She opened her mouth a few times before hoarsely shouting out two words, “Mother....”

Su Qing hurriedly reached out to support her, but her body couldn’t help but sway for a bit. Fortunately, Si Qin has supported her from the side, so she didn’t fall to the ground. “Yao’er, cough cough .... It’s okay. Mother is fine. Don’t worry, cough....”

After a long while, Mu Yunyao finally relaxed. She anxiously looked at Su Qing and asked, “Mother, are you injured?”

Su Qing’s appearance was somewhat miserable. Her sleeves and skirt had traces of being burnt. Her arms were also wounded, and her feet were unsteady. “Don’t worry, cough cough … It isn’t a problem. I just accidentally sprained my leg. Cough cough.... I choked on two mouthfuls of smoke....”

“Mother, don’t say anything. I’ll hel you to sit down and rest for a while.”

“I am fine… But Young Master Ning... cough cough, he was injured … You...”

Mu Yunyao’s eyes trembled: “Yue... Fourth Master Ning, did he save Mother?”

“Ahem... Si Qi and I were trapped in the fire... The surrounding smoke was billowing, and the fire was too strong, so we can’t escape... Seeing that the house was about to burn down, it was Young Master Ning who rushed in and rescued Si Qi and me... He was accidentally injured when we came out. Now...” Su Qing throat was thick.

She choked the smoke badly. In the end, her voice was hoarse, and she could not make a sound.

Mu Yunyao hurriedly stepped forward to support her. “Mother, you don’t need to worry. Once we’ve settled you in, I’ll go visit Fourth Master Ning.”

At this moment, there were too many people around, so Mu Yunyao couldn’t afford to visit Yue Wang immediately. She could only wait for the others to disperse before doing so.

When Su Yuyi saw that Su Qing was okay, she opened her eyes wide, and a trace of resentment flashed across her heart: How could Su Qing escape with her life intact when the fire was already in such a state? How could she be so lucky?

When Su Qingwu previously heard Mu Yunyao interrogates Su Yuyi, she felt that something wasn’t right. Now that she had such an expression, his eyes suddenly turned cold: “Yuyi, you....”

Su Yuyi quickly came back to her senses. When she saw Su Qingwu’s gaze, she suddenly felt guilty. “Why is Elder Brother looking at me like that?”

“Since you are not feeling well, there is no need to continue praying. I will have someone prepare a carriage for you, so you can return home overnight.”

“Why?” Su Yuyi quickly shook her head, “There is still one more day tomorrow. I can still hold on.” The Grand Princess Yi De was still here. She hadn’t even seen anyone, so how could she be willing to return?

“Let’s head back to the residence first. There’s no need to ask so much.” Just now, Mu Yunyao’s expression was too frightening, causing Su Qingwu to feel unsettled. It was best if she sent Yuyi away first.

However, Su Yuyi was unwilling: “Elder Brother, look at my dirty skirt. It’s already so dark, and the way home is not easy. What if something happens to me? Isn’t Elder Brother worried?”

“I’ll have someone escort you. Nothing will happen.” Su Qingwu’s attitude was firm.

“Eldest Brother, why must you be in such a hurry?” Mu Yunyao walked over there at an unknown time, her pitch-black eyes glowing with a faint red light. In the darkness of the night, she gave off an indescribable feeling that made people feel somewhat demonic, her lips slightly raised upwards, but her smile didn’t reach the bottom of her eyes. “ It’s already so late. I heard those wild beasts would occasionally appear from time to time and hurt people in the vicinity. Even if there were no wild beasts, people’s hearts are unpredictable. Currently, everyone knew Eldest Sister’s reputation. If there was someone on the way … that’s hard to explain.”

Hearing Mu Yunyao’s words, Su Yuyi felt a chill in her heart, “Elder Brother, I’m not going back!”

“Qi Mama, Baohua Temple will arrange another place to live. You can take the Eldest Miss over to rest first.” Su Qing Wu looked at Mu Yunyao, and the light in his eyes became extremely profound. “Yunyao, Aunt and you were both frightened, so you should go back and rest at this time. If you have anything to say, you can talk about it in the future.”

“Thank you for your concern, Eldest Brother. Is Eldest Sister still going back?” Her gaze lightly landed on Su Yuyi’s body. Mu Yunyao blinked her eyes at an expressly quick speed. The curve of her lips deepened, but it was filled with a cold chill.

~ UNPRECEDENTED FEAR ~ 

Seeing that Yue Wang didn’t say anything, Mu Yunyao didn’t bother with him anymore. She lightly flexed her wrist and continued to write the Buddhist scriptures.

The Scripture Pavilion was completely silent. Occasionally, there would be the sound of lights exploding, and a faint crackling sound could be heard.

Yue Wang sat to the side and looked at Mu Yunyao as she quietly copied down Buddhist scriptures. Her eyes were bright and clear, and her breath was calm. The strokes in her hands were especially meticulous, giving people a sense of safety as they watched from the side.

Mu Yunyao’s mind was completely immersed in the Buddhist scriptures, completely ignoring Yue Wang. She was in the middle of writing seriously when her heart suddenly skipped a beat. A burst of panic caused the brush in her hands to become unsteady, and a droplet of ink dripped onto the paper.

“Yunyao, what’s the matter with you?”

Mu Yunyao’s forehead wrinkled, and her fingers unconsciously touched her chest. “What time is it now?”

“It’s not that late yet, just around....”

Before Yue Wang could finish speaking, the door of the Scripture Pavilion was suddenly pushed open. Si Qin, whose head was covered with sweat, ran in quickly. Seeing that Mu Yunyao and Yue Wang were safe and sound, her face turned white: “Miss, are you alright?”

Hearing this, Mu Yunyao’s pupils constricted, and she fiercely stood up from the table. The brush in her hand landed on her pure white clothes and drew a long black ink mark, but she didn’t pay it any heed as she stumbled towards the entrance of the Scripture Pavilion.

Yue Wang’s expression froze as he quickly rushed over to Mu Yunyao and supported her shoulders. “Don’t be afraid!” Mu Yunyao didn’t even have time to react before he wrapped his arm around her waist, hugged her in his arms, and made his way quickly to the prayer hall.

Mu Yunyao tightly held onto the clothes covering Yue Wang’s chest, and her entire body slightly trembled as if it was a bowstring that had been pulled taut to the extreme and would break in the next second.

Just now, Si Qin came over in such a hurry and asked if she had anything wrong. Someone must have told her in advance that something had happened to her. She rushed over to check and realized that nothing had happened to her. It made her suddenly remember that this was a way to lure a tiger out of the mountain.

Some people wanted to move Si Qin and Si Qi away from Mother. Once Mother was alone, then...

Mu Yunyao’s fingers tightened. Because she had used too much strength, her fingers were covered in a blue-white glow.

As Yue Wang hurried over, he looked down at her. Seeing her this way, he felt as if his heart was being squeezed tight by someone.

As they approached the prayer hall, Yue Wang placed Mu Yunyao down.

Si Qin, who had followed her, quickly supported her and rushed into the hall. But only Su Qingwu, Su Yaxian, and the others were left in the hall. Su Yuyi and Su Qing were nowhere to be seen.

“Where’s my mother?”

Su Qingwu stood up. When he saw Yue Wang, who was following closely behind, his pupils shrank. Why would Yunyao be together with Yue Wang? “Why are you here in such a hurry?”

Mu Yunyao’s heart was in a complete panic as she grabbed onto Su Qingwu’s clothes, “Where’s my mother?”

“Aunt just returned to the room....” Su Qingwu furrowed his brows, noticing that there was something wrong with her expression. He was a little worried in his heart, “Yunyao, what happened?”

Mu Yunyao ignored him and turned around to walk out. Just as she walked out of the hall door, she heard the sound of a gong being knocked. The faint sounds of clamoring could be heard: “Find water!”

Mu Yunyao lost her balance, her legs went weak, and almost falling to the ground. Luckily, Si Qin had a quick reaction and supported her, “Miss!”

Mu Yunyao wants to run to the side room, but she feels that her legs are out of control. The more anxious she was, the more she couldn’t even take a step forward. Don’t panic, don’t panic, something might not happen, so after she tried to console herself several times in her heart, she turned her head to look for the figure of the Yue Wang, only to see that Yue Wang had already quickly moved towards the direction of the side room.

“Si Qin... Quick …”

Seeing Mu Yunyao’s expression, Su Qingwu suddenly reacted, “Yunyao, I’m going over to take a look now. It might not be aunty’s side.”

Si Qin holds Mu Yunyao to walk towards the side room quickly. While walking, she secretly scolded herself, “Blame it all on this servant. After hearing that Miss was in accident, I become flustered. Thinking that Madam would not be in any major incidents with Si Qi by her side, but I didn’t expect that this would be a diversion.”

Mu Yunyao didn’t pay any attention to Si Qin. At this time, all the sounds in her ears had already disappeared. She only wants to return to the room quickly. Perhaps all her guesses had been a false alarm, and her mother was fine. She is sitting in the side room waiting for her to come back with a smile.

A fiery light soared into the sky, dyeing half of the night sky red!

At this time of the year, the Capital was already dry and dusty. In addition, the wind at the Baohua Temple was so strong. With the help of wind, the fire flared, and sparks flew in all directions.

Many monks and pilgrims came to save the fire after hearing the news, but the fire was too big, so the water would not have much effect.

Looking at the room was surrounded by raging flames, Mu Yunyao tried her best to widen her eyes. Her voice was so hoarse that it could not be described, “Mother!”

Mu Yunyao pushed Si Qin away, her face devoid of blood. Her entire body was trembling like a sieve, but her steps were firm as she charged towards the burning room.

Su Qingwu hurriedly pulled her back. “I’ll send someone to put out the fire, but don’t be rash. Perhaps Aunt is not in the room.”

Mu Yunyao suddenly turned her head. The hatred in her eyes was like a tide, surging downwards as if it could drown someone out, “Let go of me!”

Su Qingwu’s heart trembled. It was just that the hatred in her eyes was too astonishing, as though she was an enemy that wouldn’t rest until he died. With just a glance, she was able to make him tremble, “Yunyao, calm down!”

Mu Yunyao reached out to pull off Su Qingwu’s hand, but she couldn’t find enough strength. In a state of emotional breakdown, she directly lifted her hand and fiercely bit onto the back of Su Qingwu’s hand. She mustered all her strength, and immediately after taking a bite, the smell of blood gushed out, causing her to be unable to suppress her urge to vomit.

Su Qingwu subconsciously loosened his grip. Her forehead furrowed, and he didn’t seem to care about his injuries at all. “Don’t move. I’ll go in and help you find someone.”

Mu Yunyao completely ignored him. After struggling free, she immediately rushed into the room.
“Miss!” Si Qin followed closely. Just as the two of them arrived at the door, the main beam of the side room burned and collapsed suddenly, which was red and roaring.

The house collapsed, there would be no more survivors!

Si Qin stepped forward to block Mu Yunyao’s path. “Miss, the house has collapsed, and we can’t enter!”
Mu Yunyao tried her best to open her eyes wide, and her pitch-black pupils covered in layers of blood-red light from the flames.

Si Qin quickly pulled her back and spoke with an uncontrollably trembling voice, “Miss, don’t scare me. Perhaps Madam isn’t inside. Maybe she is looking for you right everywhere now?”

Mu Yunyao didn’t have the slightest reaction. At this time, she couldn’t hear anything. She only feels that the whole figure has been immersed in an ice-cold pond and was unceasingly sinking. The ice-cold water poured into her mouth and nose, blocking all her breathing. No matter how hard she struggles, she will never see the sun again......
