Chapter 201: Chapter 201: Bloodline Test (Part 1)
“Speak, who is the mastermind behind you?”
Mu Ruyue took light steps forward, her icy gaze falling on the man, looking at the face that bore no difference from Ye Wuchen’s, a hint of frost swept through the depths of her eyes.
The man snorted coldly and turned his head away, not even granting her a glance.
“Not talking?” Mu Ruyue’s lips curved slightly, but her eyes remained frigid, “Yan Jin, pry his mouth open for me! I want to hear the answers I’m looking for.”
Yan Jin arched his brows, rolling up his sleeves and advancing towards the man: “Should I dismember you limb from limb, or let your soul be burnt to ashes under my Netherworld Fire? It would be best if you relay what the little girl wants to know. Perhaps I’ll grant you a quick death!”
With a swish, black Flames ignited on Yan Jin’s body, his domineering eyes shimmering with a pair of flames.
His lips quirked up as he looked down at the man from his superior position, his dark hair fluttering in the flames below, arrogantly casting a sideways glance at the face identical to Ye Wuchen’s.
The man felt the threat Yan Jin could bring upon him and clenched his teeth in the dark, refusing to utter a word.
“Yan Jin, take a step back,” Mu Ruyue’s willow brows furrowed slightly as she walked lightly to Yan Jin’s side, opening her hand where a Truth Pill boldly rested in her palm, “Feed him this Elixir.”
Yan Jin didn’t utter a word, taking the Elixir from Mu Ruyue’s hand. With a wave of his palm, a streak of black light shot toward the man; seizing the moment when the man opened his mouth to shout, he flicked his finger, and the Truth Pill fell into the man’s mouth.
The man coughed twice, hurriedly reaching into his mouth wanting to dig out the ingested Elixir, but to no avail as the pill dissolved upon entry, now a trickle of Medicine Liquid flowing down his throat.
“Tell me, who sent you!”
Mu Ruyue stopped in front of the man, looking down on him from above.
At that moment, the man’s eyes were vacant as he answered dumbly, “It was my Family Head.”
“Who is your Family Head?”
“Our Family Head is the young miss of the Nangong Family, Nangong Zifeng.”
Mu Ruyue’s brows knit together, certain she had never heard the name before. Then why would she send someone to impersonate Ye Wuchen and come to her side?
“What is the reason for doing this?”
“I am not privy to the full details. The young miss never disclosed her motives. She merely instructed me to use this identity to ruin the relationship between you two, and to eliminate you given the opportunity. Beyond that, I know nothing.”
Mu Ruyue glanced at the man, feeling he wasn’t completely in the dark.
But what was Nangong Zifeng’s purpose in doing this?
“Yan Jin, take care of him,” Mu Ruyue said softly as she turned and walked towards the door.
The rest was left to Yan Jin to handle.
Stepping outside, Mu Ruyue took a deep breath; she now needed to prepare for tomorrow’s Bloodline Test…
The sky just began to reveal a white belly.
Mu Ruyue was still in her slumber when she was roused by Madam Sheng Yue, who brought her into the clan hall where Xiao Tianyu and Xiao Qingqing were already waiting for them. Upon seeing Mu Ruyue, Xiao Qingqing jumped out of Xiao Tianyu’s embrace and dashed into her arms with haste.
Xiao Qingqing hugged Mu Ruyue’s thigh, her smile adorable and her voice soft and endearing. With such beauty at a tender age, she was destined to be a heartbreaker when grown.
