The Otherworldly God

Chapter 141

Yun Xiu quickly found the spies who tried to enter Fangyuan to investigate in the mezzanine of the barrier. There were about four of them, and they didn't look like they were in the same group. Yun Xiu didn't care who was the master behind them.

There were two guests here who came to attend the dinner. They were like lost lambs in the mezzanine. One of them almost cried, while the other was relatively calm.

"Are you taking advantage of the newcomers? Never mind, just open the door and let them out."

Soon, they reached the door. The calm one still wanted to go in, but the open door scared the crying girl. She called her brother and stopped him from going in, so he gave up.

The other two were both very skilled. Yun Xiu tested them and found that one of them was Le Zheng's man, and his skills were at most that of a beginner Taoist. Yun Xiu guessed whose disciple he was, and then she knocked him out with a snap of her fingers. Then Yun Xiu appeared at the door.

However, this time, Yun Xiu was dressed in black, with silver-white hair scattered around her body. A black veil on her head covered the upper half of her face, and she was leaning against an umbrella.

"Go back and tell your master that there won't be a next time."

The voice was not an ordinary voice, it was like a chill all over the body, which frightened the beginner Taoist so much that he opened his eyes wide, and finally stood up and ran away.

The other one was also kicked out, but she was not afraid. She just stared fiercely at the person who kicked her out.

She was wearing a bridal outfit with a veil on her head, and a red glow was emanating from her surroundings. She was in a half-hidden state, making it difficult to tell whether she was real or not.

She originally wanted to fight with her, but then she found out there was someone standing next to her whose aura made her difficult to deal with. She was also injured and could only use magic to escape.

Yunxiu folded the umbrella and held it without looking at her.

"Why did you come out?"

She didn't say anything, but lifted her veil a little, revealing half of her face and smiled strangely, then disappeared without a trace.

Yun Xiu could only smell a strange fragrance in the air and her laughter echoed in her ears, so she covered her mouth and nose.

Yun Xiu was a little angry. She opened her umbrella, turned around, and disappeared into the night. When she appeared again, she was in her original appearance, in Mu Xin's room.

He was busy with his own things and served a bowl of ginseng soup that Le Ying brought to Mu Xin.

"When did Honglian wake up? He won't cause any trouble again, will he?"

Mu Xin took a sip before answering, "She woke up that time, and was in a daze for a long time. She has only become more sober in the past few days. I don't think she will cause any trouble for the time being. Anyway, I'll put her in the barrier and let her be if there's nothing wrong."

"I hope so, otherwise I may not be able to control her."

Mu Xin noticed that Le Ying was in a daze, and thinking that Le Zhengfang was here, she asked, "Why don't we go meet her?"

Le Ying finally came to her senses and shook her head, saying, "No, it's still too early."

"Yinli was a little unhappy when I didn't see anyone last time. It's also my fault that I couldn't empathize with your feelings and thought that this was the best thing to do, so I..."

Le Ying knelt down and saluted Mu Xin.

"You saved Le Ying's life, young lady. Even if I don't have much time left, at least I'm back in Le Zheng. I've waited for seventeen years. In three years, Le Ying will get her real name back and take revenge on the culprits, so young lady, don't worry about us. Just follow the original plan."

"Then you can go and deliver some cakes to them for me. The ones on the table are for my aunt and Master Zhi. Please help me deliver them as well. I will leave Pavilion Master Nangong and Young Pavilion Master to your care."

Le Ying was still a little embarrassed. Looking at the wrapped pastries on the table, she knew that Mu Xin had planned it long ago, so she didn't refuse.

"Yes."

Yun Xiu spoke only after she left.

"Aren't you afraid that she won't be able to control herself?"

"She thought she only had twenty years, and it took her six years to become like this. I also asked her to go to the Shi family and follow the second young lady for eleven years. She was very anxious, but she also knew that things could not be rushed. If it weren't for my poor health and I had to recuperate in the Painting City for a long time, I wouldn't have waited until I was sixteen to find a husband. I thought that as long as one of them successfully married into the Lezheng family, she would come back with him, but it turned out to be me."

"The second young lady is still young. But it is true that we initially planned a marriage between the Shi family and Le Zheng, but ended up getting entangled with the Li family. I wonder what is going on with the second young lady and the two young masters of the Li family now."

"The Li family is generally fine, but I am not very satisfied with the temperament of the head of the Li family and the eldest son. The eldest daughter is introverted and soft-tempered, and I am afraid that she will suffer. I am relieved about the second daughter and the second son. Isn't there Mr. Shi watching them?"

"That's right. I think we've strayed off topic."

"Isn't it?" Mu Xin smiled and drank a sip of tea, then looked at Yun Xiu and asked, "Are you still worried that she can't control herself?"

"We've been suppressing her for seventeen years, and she's always thought she only has twenty years to live. How can she not be worried?"

"For her, the only twenty years she has the ability to take revenge are these twenty years. Whether she really only has twenty years to live or not doesn't make much difference."

"My lady, you are also thinking about her. It is the same as if she is living a new life, starting all over again with her magical powers. Without these seventeen years, she would undoubtedly be courting death if she came back to seek revenge. It is impossible for her to let go of her husband's revenge, her children's revenge, and her own revenge. Moreover, she is living on the strength of hatred."

"Revenge for a child? Yunxiu, I have some doubts. Le Ying's child may not be dead."

"Not dead? That's impossible. The child was thrown into the lake. I heard that there were many people who saw it with their own eyes... Oh no, I heard that Mr. Qi Ming's mother was the murderer who killed Le Ying's child. If Le Ying knew, she would not..."

Mu Xin stood up and put down the teacup, then walked to the window and sat down with his clothes on. He looked at Le Ying below and waited until they came out of the spell. Seeing that she could still hold back, he continued the previous topic.

"Last time I was looking for a bride, because of her, I was so weak that I needed your Qi to support me, so I didn't notice anything unusual. Although I feel tired today, my body feels much better, so I feel something is strange."

She took out the water mirror, and although it was in a brocade bag, it was still hanging around her neck. Yun Xiu sat down on the windowsill opposite her and looked at them below. Le Zhengfang also looked up, but fortunately they couldn't see anything.

"What's so strange about it?"

"Look at him. He is the young master of the East Sea Pavilion, named Nangong Lin. But I can sense the aura of Le Zheng on him, but not the slightest aura of Master Nangong."

"Pavilion Master Nangong is raising a child for Le Zheng? This is not surprising. Maybe Master Zhi asked him to do so?"

"Why did Ke Lezheng ask Donghai Pavilion to raise his child?"

"That's true. Even if his parents made a big mistake, it's not as bad as an innocent child. Moreover, he has good qualifications. Le Zheng shouldn't do this."

"Looking at their appearance, it seems that this child and auntie are particularly close. Look at the way auntie looks at him."

"Isn't he my aunt's child?"

Mu Xin was amused by her and burst out laughing.

"Now that Yaoyao is gone, you look a bit like her."

"Maybe I've been with her for so long that I don't realize it."

"It's unlikely. My aunt's lover, the one who gave her this fragrant garden, also has this beautiful magic. My aunt also stayed single for his whole life, so how could she give birth to another man's child?"

"I thought his father was him. After all, they are all from the East Sea, so it is possible that he handed it over to the East Sea Pavilion. This prince is really willing to give her the treasure of the East Sea... no, the Dragon Ball, which is the treasure of the dragon clan. He was so willing to give it all to her."

"The prince also has many difficulties. Yinuo's father abandoned the position of prince for love, which angered the Dragon King so much that he almost lost thousands of years of his life. Now that he has another child who is like this, I'm afraid he will die of old age. Moreover, Prince Xuanyi also had his considerations for placing the dragon ball here. The fact that the Changsheng Realm didn't touch the dragon clan before doesn't mean it won't in the future. The prince must have sensed the crisis and wanted to protect the lifeblood of the dragon clan."

"Will the Immortal Realm really take action against the Dragon Clan? I don't think the Immortal Realm has the strength to take action against the Dragon Clan."

"Of course, the Immortal Realm will not blatantly deal with the Dragon Clan, but the Dragon Clan refuses to bend. It is impossible for him to let such a powerful thorn in his side go forever. After all, immortality is a very long thing. It's okay to endure it for a while, but how can he endure it forever?"

"If the Immortal Realm really attacks the Dragon Clan, should we help?"

Mu Xin and Yun Xiu both knew very well that even if they wanted to help, they were powerless.

"Take a handful of sand from the East China Sea, pick a flower from there, and deliver a letter to the prince for me. Put another letter inside and ask the prince to give it to the Dragon King."

"What do you want to write, miss?"

"Write it down as you see fit. We can't take care of the Dragon Clan for now. Our primary mission right now is to find the master of the Heavenly Sword. We can't afford to fail to pull it out."

"Yeah, I'll go get ready then."

"Go."

As a result, the two of them turned the topic to the East China Sea and forgot about the matter about Le Ying's child that they talked about at the beginning. In addition, Mu Xin thought that now was not the right time, so he did not mention the matter again for a long time.
