Mu Nanqing continued to watch.
Then her expression kept changing.
Seeing Yue Zhilan with a male companion, that disciple from the Mu Family even asked about their relationship.
Yin Yang Demon Venerable was just reveling in a wicked smile.
Yue Zhilan’s face blushed, yet she insisted they were just ordinary friends.
That was what she said.
But the atmosphere between the two was obviously different.
Upon hearing Yue Zhilan’s words, the Mu Family disciple believed it.
He enthusiastically offered to show Yue Zhilan around.
Yue Zhilan, for reasons unknown, actually agreed.
The Mu Family disciple was extremely attentive, and Yue Zhilan was shy but engaging, both seeming to enjoy their conversation immensely.
The face of Yin Yang Demon Venerable grew uglier by the minute, occasionally casting cold glances their way.
Every time this happened, Yue Zhilan seemed to enjoy her interaction with the other man even more.
The Mu Family disciple, as if ensnared by a spell of stupidity, didn’t notice anything amiss and kept Yue Zhilan extremely pleased.
She only felt that, this world was very complicated.
So complicated that she couldn’t understand it at all!
The party gradually moved further away.
Mu Nanqing was about to ask in detail.
Shi Nian smiled, lightly waving her sleeve and a screen of water appeared in front of her, showing the live scene of the three people.
This water screen was obtained by Shi Nian for a hundred top-grade crystal stones, able to select a person and display live images of their next 24 hours.
But, each use rendered it obsolete.
Mu Nanqing knew Shi Nian meant for her to continue watching, so she suppressed her confusion and continued to watch.
What followed wasn’t much of interest.
It was simply two men vieing jealously and secretly competing over a woman.
Yue Zhilan also ingeniously phrased her questions, inquiring everything clearly about the Mu Family.
When they parted at last, Yue Zhilan even took the initiative to ask the Mu Family disciple to meet again the next day.
The face of Yin Yang Demon Venerable instantly turned even darker.
After the Mu Family disciple cheerfully bade farewell and left, Yin Yang Demon Venerable pulled Yue Zhilan over with a devilish smile: "Woman, were you deliberately provoking me just now?"
Yue Zhilan was very coy: "Did you get angry?"
Yin Yang Demon Venerable’s pupils darkened, pulling her into his arms, his voice deep: "You seemed very interested in his background. What, thinking of switching to someone better?"
Yue Zhilan pounded his chest lightly: "I just didn’t expect him to be from the Mu Family!"
"What’s so special about the Mu Family?" Yin Yang Demon Venerable squinted his eyes.
Yue Zhilan sighed: "I once stayed at the Divine Martial Sect for a few days. There’s a woman there named Mu Nanqing, who also has the surname Mu."
"Oh?" Yin Yang Demon Venerable still didn’t understand.
Yue Zhilan showed a distressed look: "I’m just a mortal who came to the Cultivation Sect, getting bullied was inevitable. Actually, I didn’t want to mention it."
Having heard it all, Mu Nanqing: "???"
What does this mortal mean?
I’ve never even met this person.
Yet her words imply that I bullied her?
This is utterly nonsensical.
Although Mu Nanqing is usually good-tempered, she couldn’t help feeling a hint of anger.
"That disciple just said, this Mu Nanqing, seems to be the most outstanding cultivator among the young generation of the Mu Family," Yin Yang Demon Venerable said darkly.
Yue Zhilan sighed, looking helpless: "She has the entire Divine Martial Sect as her backing and is a genius of the Mu Family. What can a mere mortal like me do even if I’m bullied? You shouldn’t trouble yourself over this, I was just making a casual remark."
The more Yue Zhilan said this, the darker the expression of Yin Yang Demon Venerable became.
He coldly said, "You are my woman, I will never allow you to suffer any grievance. Mu Nanqing... the Mu Family..."
A flicker of murderous intent crossed the eyes of Yin Yang Demon Venerable.
Yue Zhilan saw this and felt smug, but she pretended to be oblivious on the surface: "Alright, that’s all in the past now, I don’t care about it anymore."
Yin Yang Demon Venerable’s gaze darkened, gently stroking her long hair.
Yue Zhilan lowered her gaze, concealing the triumph in her eyes.
Mu Nanqing, you felt proud, didn’t you?
Didn’t you think that trampling me was as simple as stepping on an ant?
Have you ever considered!
Those words of yours would bring disaster upon your entire family!
Demon Lord, that is the topmost expert of the Demon World.
She has already seen the killing intent in the eyes of the Yin Yang Demon Venerable, the Mu Family is doomed!
Mu Nanqing stared at the scene in the water curtain, her expression suddenly turned cold!
She did not understand why this mortal woman would say these inexplicable words.
Neither did she understand where she got the confidence to believe that her male companion could actually contend with the entire Mu Family.
But she saw the killing intent in the eyes of the Yin Yang Demon Venerable.
This man, he plans to take action against the Mu Family!
Rather than letting him start, it’s better to eliminate him beforehand.
Mu Nanqing’s intent to kill arose, causing her sword to tremble continuously.
Seeing Mu Nanqing’s anger, Shi Nian softly said: "Senior sister, do you know who that man is?"
Mu Nanqing’s expression sharpened: "Who is it?"
Shi Nian in a gentle voice said: "The Demon World, Yin Yang Demon Venerable."
Mu Nanqing’s pupils suddenly contracted sharply.
She said incredulously: "Does that woman know the identity of this man?"
Mu Nanqing was even more shocked.
Knowing he’s from the Demon Clan, yet not hastening to distance herself and report it?
Mu Nanqing hurriedly said: "Shi Nian, with a Demon Venerable infiltrating the Human Realm, this matter is no small issue, we need to immediately report this to Lin Bai Sword Immortal!"
Shi Nian smiled: "It’s fine. Senior sister, there’s still a final act tonight, come and see with me."
Mu Nanqing’s face involuntarily underwent a slight change.
She forced herself to calm down, then asked with some complexity: "Does this mortal woman have any relation to me?"
Otherwise, Shi Nian wouldn’t keep bringing her to my attention.
"Greatly related." Shi Nian said meaningfully.
Mu Nanqing pursed her lips.
She was quite curious.
But since Shi Nian mentioned that tonight is the final act, it seems all puzzles will be solved tonight, and she continued to wait.
Shi Nian looked at the Yue Zhilan in the water curtain, a faint indifferent smile emerging at her lips.
Li Nanfeng is already dead.
In a blink of an eye, the Yin Yang Demon Venerable appeared.
At this moment, Yue Zhilan has utterly inflated with pride, thinking with a Demon Lord by her side, she is invincible in all under heaven.
What Shi Nian seeks to do is to plunge her into utter despair at the peak of her pride.
The heroine’s fortune can be wiped clean in the shortest time.
The Greedy Demon Venerable is also coming tonight.
Everything is arranged to conclude tonight.
The Yin Yang Demon Venerable secretly rose and left the room.
Yue Zhilan opened her eyes, a smug smile flickering in her eyes.
The Mu Family is about to be annihilated.
This time, can you still rise proudly?
Do you still dare say that you can crush me casually?
With the Demon Lord here, this time, after eliminating the Mu Family, next we will go to the Divine Martial Sect to capture Mu Nanqing, seizing her Spirit Root, her Nascent Soul, and everything she possesses.
Excitement flashed in Yue Zhilan’s eyes.
She felt nothing wrong with her thoughts, even felt that all this is natural!
She, Yue Zhilan, is the darling of this world.
Destined to be her stepping stone!
