Chapter 181: Everyone has a unique identity at 181 Chapter 181: Everyone has a unique identity at 181 They hurried along the way, and with the people ahead intentionally waiting, Sikong Mo and Lin Qi soon met up with Ye Jiu and the others by a river at the edge of a forest.
At that moment, Ye Jiu was washing the makeup from her face with a solution given to her by Si Rong.
“Master, are you injured?” Si Bei asked as he stepped forward, looking worriedly at the bloodstains on Sikong Mo’s body.
“Just a minor injury, no harm done,” Sikong Mo replied.
“Shall I help you bandage it?” Si Bei inquired.
“I can handle it myself. Help Lin Qi first; his injuries are severe,” Sikong Mo replied.
Lin Qi indeed had severe wounds, slashed three times, with countless minor cuts.
Sikong Mo took a few steps forward, his gaze landing on Ye Jiu and unconsciously softening.
This girl was quite clever; not only had she escaped unscathed, she hadn’t even been injured.
He intended to approach her, but Prince Jing blocked his path.
“Amo, it was I who brought this upon you!” Prince Jing bowed to Sikong Mo.
“Prince Jing is too polite. Rescuing Prince Jing is the Emperor’s command and also my duty,” Sikong Mo said lightly, not really pleased that Prince Jing was obstructing his view of someone.
“No matter how you put it, you ultimately saved my life. I owe you one,” Prince Jing sighed.
Prince Jing and Sikong Mo were old acquaintances; when Sikong Mo first came to the capital city ten years ago, Prince Jing, who was a few years older, had even hosted him for a while.
After those incidents, which included the Royal Family’s indulgence, even if Prince Jing, then still a youth, knew nothing of the old Emperor’s actions, Sikong Mo still distanced himself from these people.
Prince Jing intended to be further polite, but then he noticed that Sikong Mo’s gaze had already moved beyond him, following behind him, so he looked back as well.
A young girl was washing her face; the same one who had looked quite nice before, but why did she appear like a totally different person after washing her face?
Moreover, she had become uglier, so much so that it was painful to look at!
However, the girl wiping the unattractive girl’s face was indeed pretty, though she still paled in comparison to Sikong Mo.
But in this world, it’s rare to find a girl who could catch Sikong Mo’s eye; others seemed less important.
Ignoring Prince Jing, Sikong Mo walked three steps away from Ye Jiu and stopped while Ying Luoxue, seeing him, immediately bowed, “Your servant greets…
Before she could finish, Sikong Mo raised his hand to interrupt her, “Leave!”
Ying Luoxue boldly met Sikong Mo’s eyes for a moment before quickly averting her gaze, briefly glancing at Ye Jiu with a puzzled look, then stepped aside.
At this moment, Ye Jiu’s mind was in turmoil.
Apparently, Ying Luoxue’s status was not ordinary!
Then, the man in front of her must hold an even higher official rank to command such respect from Ying Luoxue.
“Um… Sir, how should I address you?” Feeling rather awkward under his intense stare, Ye Jiu inquired.
Moreover, she still didn’t know the identity of the person in front of her.
“Sikong, you may continue to address me as Prince,” Sikong Mo spoke.
That surname is not common at all, and who knows what relation it has to the famous War Prince Residence.
“Then may I ask what Prince Sikong needs?” Ye Jiu asked.
Standing face to face, so unfamiliar, and especially with him covered in blood, feeling as if he just came through a battle, emitting a heavy aura of murder, Ye Jiu felt a considerable pressure.
