Chapter 141: Chapter 141 Shameless Mu Family Visits (Part 2)
Mu Ruyue leaned lazily against Ye Wuchen, her face showing signs of weariness. She stretched and said with a fake smile, “Let them come in. I want to see just how shameless they can be.”
Li Lu looked at Mu Ruyue in surprise, “Yes, Master,” he said.
After these words, he turned and left. Moments later, the figures of the father and daughter duo appeared before their eyes. Compared to the scheming face of Mu Qing, Mu Yixue’s eyes filled with intense love when she saw Ye Wuchen.
So he was the Ghost King, the fool from the past.
Unexpectedly, not only was the Ghost King handsome, but he had also endured humiliation and played the fool to survive. How could such an outstanding man not be loved by women?
Especially since Mu Yixue had fallen for him early on because of Wuchen’s striking appearance…
From the moment Mu Qing entered the Mu Residence, he felt numerous powerful presences flood in, causing a slight shock to his heart, but he assumed they were Wuchen’s people.
Little could he have guessed that these strong individuals belonged to the force Mu Ruyue had established—the Skybane Clan.
Ever since she attended the Alchemy Conference, Li Lu had gathered more powerful individuals. After countless elixir enhancements, their strength had grown stronger. Initially, these warriors did not stay at the Mu Residence, but after the incident with Dieyi happened, Mu Ruyue had called all of them back, and they usually cultivated within the residence.
“Yue’er.” Mu Qing looked at the girl sitting on Wuchen’s body, frowning slightly in discontent. In his view, such a gesture was unbecoming, even for a woman who was married.
However, remembering why he was there, Mu Qing suppressed all words of rebuke and forced a stiff smile, “It’s too lonely for you to live here by yourself. Let your sister Xue’er keep you company.”
It wasn’t a question, but a command that directly stated his intention.
Mu Ruyue scoffed coldly, her icy dark eyes turning towards Mu Qing, “Alone? Are you saying Wuchen isn’t a person, Li Lu isn’t a person? Aren’t other people here persons as well?”
Mu Qing gave a dry laugh, “After all, the Ghost King is your fiancé, and you can’t meet often. Li Lu recognizes you as his master, and his status is certainly different. That’s why I’m thinking of letting your sister accompany you.”
“Status?” Mu Ruyue sneered coldly, with a chill and mockery in her smile, “Could it be that in the eyes of the Mu Family Head, a Shi family daughter’s status can compare with mine?”
Mu Ruyue was right; she wasn’t just the Ghost Queen. She was also Master Wu Yu’s disciple and the owner of the Ghost Hall, each of her identities superior to Mu Yixue’s.
At this moment, Mu Yixue clenched her fists in hatred, her envious gaze fiercely fixed on Mu Ruyue.
“Muer, are you thirsty?” Ye Wuchen looked coldly at the Mu family duo and then with a devilish and gentle smile, turned to Mu Ruyue, “Shall I get you some tea?”
“The Big Red Robe that Elder Zhao brought last time was good, but make it light; I don’t like it too strong,” Mu Ruyue nodded and turned to say to Ye Wuchen.
Ye Wuchen gently stroked her hair, the smile in his eyes seemingly enough to drown someone.
The actions of the two completely ignited the jealousy raging in Mu Yixue’s heart. She glared hatefully at Mu Ruyue, her gaze like knives scraping viciously over that gorgeous face.
