Chapter 139: Old Woman’s Dirty Scheme!
The young girl in his arms looked at Duan Lanruo with vigilance and hostility. She hugged Liu Yuan tightly, as if she was afraid that she would lose her Xuanyang Pearl again.
Speaking of which, has the Young Mistress of the Xuanyin family completely forgotten about her previous self-injury trick?
The moment she sensed Duan Lanruo’s arrival, she immediately pounced over.
She threw all the courage she had when she closed his eyes and hit the blade on the ground.
She could be said to be the fastest contestant.
Liu Yuan could not help but pinch Young Mistress Ye’s slightly flushed cheeks, which were filled with dignity. At this moment, the young girl had already blamed the ‘betrayal’ of her Xuanyang Pearl on Duan Lanruo. The disbelief that she had in her heart earlier had already become a definite fact. She felt that she had to pull Liu Yuan, who had become a bastard, back on the right path.
However, this woman was too scary. She was able to take off the clothes of the other women who had mocked her before and send them to Liu Yuan’s arms without changing her expression.
Could this be what she had been doing all this while?
The young girl remembered the two girls who were said to be about to get married to Liu Yuan.
However, her thoughts were quickly pulled back. She remembered that she was put into Liu Yuan’s arms and that she had tried to ask Xiu’er not to catch her before she fainted.
“Where’s Xiu’er?” Ye Cike suddenly realized.
Liu Yuan had cultivated for an entire night, so he naturally did not know what had happened. He could only turn to look at Duan Lanruo.
The City Lord had just opened a document, and she looked up from the desk and said indifferently, “The Young Mistress’s maidservant has been sent back to Lanfang Garden last night. As for the servant, because he attacked the City Lord, he has to be temporarily detained in the dungeon for investigation.”
Duan Lanruo, who had entered a working state, was very different from her usual gentle and charming self. At first glance, she had a cold and solemn temperament. It was not indifference, but majesty, and the words she said made people not have the courage to refute her.
In this study that had been completely restored by the array and the secret guards, the layers of bookshelves and files behind her complemented each other.
Although she described the study as a strange place, there was no such thing at all. After all, she had only been in contact with Liu Yuan for a few days.
If he really did as she said, Liu Yuan would have been as thin as a stick by now.
Hearing this, Ye Cike heaved a sigh of relief and continued to bury himself in Liu Yuan’s arms like an ostrich. Right now, she always felt awkward when facing Duan Lanruo.
Although she was hostile, she naturally knew that her words last night were too much. However, it was clearly Duan Lanruo who first said that her Xuanyang Pearl did not belong to her… and there was nothing more frightening than this.
If Liu Yuan was no longer hers, her entire world would be gone.
This was not an exaggeration. In terms of relationships, Ye Cike had not come into contact with many people in her life, so she had entrusted most of her feelings to Liu Yuan.
From a rational point of view, Ye Cike had already cut off all means of retreat by bringing the Skyring Sword with her. If she could not find Liu Yuan, her position in the family would be in jeopardy, and those who were on her side would most likely switch sides. By then, she might no longer be the Young Mistress.
She would not apologize…
Duan Lanruo clearly knew that she was looking for Liu Yuan. From her expression at that time, she must have already known.
However, this woman still cheated her of her things and played with her people behind her back.
Old woman’s dirty schemes!
Ye Cike remained silent.
Duan Lanruo could tell at a glance that this child was depressed, but what was the use of this? from the moment she came over and had her illness act up, the scales in Liu Yuan’s heart had already leaned towards Duan Lanruo.
The more people that came, the more stable her position would be.
This was the initiative!
The only thing she did not expect was that she would use the ruse of injuring herself to make Liu Yuan’s heart soften again.
However, this did not matter. The most worrying thing now was that after Shen Sifan urged her to go against Ye Cike, her reaction was indeed big, but then she disappeared without a trace. She did not know if Shen Sifan was angry and needed to calm down, or if she had already chosen to give up.
However, according to Green Lotus Swordsman’s hot temper, if she chose to give up, her next move would probably be to kill Liu Yuan at the foot of the City of Ten Thousand Swords.
It could be seen that a storm was brewing.
Duan Lanruo put down the brush in her hand and held her head. “The materials that can allow the spirit of the mountains and seas to evolve have almost been prepared. In the next few days, bring that child to the City Lord’s Mansion. Once you have done so, you can begin to reorganize the materials. It will take about three days.”
“I’ll go back to the inn later, so I’ll bring Zhizhi over.” Liu Yuan nodded.
Ye Cike did not know where the spirit of the mountains and seas came from, but when she heard the word ‘inn’, she immediately became alert and mumbled, “You don’t have to live in such a simple place. I’ll prepare a place for you to live. What are you still pretending for? We already know anyway.”
You all know… but others don’t.
Liu Yuan shook his head and said earnestly, “Since I’ve already disguised myself, I have to finish what I started. It’s too strange to suddenly say that I’ve always been using a fake identity… I still have a friend I just met there. I can’t just throw him away or tell him that I’ve been lying to him.”
Ye Cike knew that this friend was Cui Ting and wondered why he was such a hindrance.
It was the same outside the city gate at the beginning. He had messed up the situation and caused her to miss the opportunity to catch Liu Yuan.
However, Liu Yuan’s words made sense. Cui Ting was not a nobody, so she could not just ignore him. The girl changed the topic and said, “Then I want to go too!”
Liu Yuan lowered his head and saw the girl raise her hand with a serious expression.
“Why are you going to take a walk?”
“I can wear a bamboo hat,” Ye Cike said stubbornly.
Liu Yuan felt helpless. This was not a matter of wearing a bamboo hat or not. The key point was that her aura stood out even if she wore ordinary clothes and covered her face. However, no matter how he thought about it, she must be worried about the tension between him and Hu Jiuniang. After all, he had already been exposed.
As the saying goes, a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.
“Alright, just remember to hide your identity.”
Liu Yuan continued, “Also, I borrowed the Ten Thousand Sword Array that you modified. I used it to infiltrate the demon sect. We need to investigate.”
It just so happened that this formation still had its uses, and if he spoke, it could reduce Ye Cike’s hostile feelings towards Duan Lanruo a little.
“A spy from the demonic sect?” Ye Cike was taken aback. She thought Shen Sifan’s reason was simple and did not expect that someone from the demonic sect would really sneak in. She nodded reluctantly and said, “Alright.”
She had originally wanted to keep this formation as evidence of Duan Lanruo’s bullying, but since Liu Yuan had spoken, she had no choice but to agree.
After Liu Yuan and Duan Lanruo bade farewell, Ye Cike went to Lanfang Garden to find Xiu’er.
On the way, she did not forget to tell Liu Yuan how much she missed him and how hard it was to find him. She told Liu Yuan that she would take him to see her mother after the Tideviewing and Sword-listening.
Whenever Liu Yuan heard the word ‘mother’, he felt a little strange and quickly reminded himself that he could not have that.
When Ye Cike entered Lanfang Garden and called for Xiu’er, a beautiful servant girl immediately ran out and said with tears in her eyes, “Young Mistress!”
She was stunned when she saw Liu Yuan beside her.
Xiu’er suddenly felt sad. Young Mistress, how can you fall again so quickly…
