"I've seen my mother."
When the words of Mu Qingyue were completely spoken, Lu Jin'an couldn't help but sit up a bit straighter.
Seen Huang Ningshang?
What did she say?
"Did she help you?" Lu Jin'an asked nonchalantly.
"I'm her only daughter." Mu Qingyue continued to weave her tale: "As long as I ask her, she'll naturally help ... She wouldn't want to always be your slave."
Listening to her voice, Lu Jin'an couldn't help but ponder, what thoughts passed through Huang Ningshang's mind when she said those words?
He remained silent, while Mu Qingyue continued to speak: "If you don't agree, with my mother's skill, she'd be able to tell the people who ought to know about your disgraceful affairs with her imdiately; with your current strength, can you stop her?"
If that were the case, it would indeed be troubleso.
After all, he was confident enough to confront Divine Concealnt, but if Huang Ningshang, who had long transcended, personally helped Mu Qingyue, there really wasn't a good solution.
But...
"When did you et Senior Huang?" Lu Jin'an stared at Mu Qingyue, suddenly standing up and bending over to look directly into her eyes: "You're deceiving ."
"You can try." Mu Qingyue did not flinch.
Lu Jin'an's gaze deepened, slowly raising his right hand: "Since you're so confident, I should see whether she'll really appear."
As soon as the words fell, he picked up the cross buckle on the table that could bind hands and feet together.
Mu Qingyue forcefully suppressed the joy in her heart, but her expression didn't waver, though the mist in her eyes welled up uncontrollably.
Yet she wasn't worried at all; she even thought her almost crying expression might further provoke negative emotions in Junior Brother.
Moreover...
"Wait, wait!"
Xiao Yinruo hurriedly stood up at this mont, grabbing Lu Jin'an's wrist, eyebrows furrowed with worry while stealing a glance at Mu Qingyue.
This girl lightly kicked her under the table, so she quickly stood up to cooperate.
"Jin'an, don't be impulsive..." Xiao Yinruo took a deep breath, pretending to be worried: "Don't escalate the impact of this issue."
Lu Jin'an glanced at Xiao Yinruo: "Aunt Ruo, one concession leads to many. Even if we compromise now, she'll continue to threaten later.
In the future, the number of tis she ets Senior Huang will only increase. Are you sure you want to show patience now? Leave the people to , and as for the world... I'd like to see who dares to speak up!"
Xiao Yinruo tightened his grip on his wrist more and with pleading in her eyes: "Aunt doesn't want anyone to know about this... Can you?"
Before Lu Jin'an could speak, Mu Qingyue mocked: "Junior Brother, Aunt Ruo is more sensible than you.
You aren't afraid of gossip, but what about her? She may be your kept Golden Canary, but that only further highlights the old tradition of multiple wives, and with her identity, how would others talk about her?"
Mu Qingyue stood up and looked at Lu Jin'an: "Shaless woman, seducing a disciple's man, not adhering to moral..."
She intentionally spoke harshly, but Lu Jin'an, with a swift motion, pinned her directly to the table: "Mu Qingyue, do you think having your mother as a shield makes you invincible?"
"Jin, Jin'an..." Xiao Yinruo hurriedly went beside him: "Don't..."
"Aunt Ruo, let handle this matter." Lu Jin'an clamped Mu Qingyue's wrists: "You think you're the only one with help? My sister is also in Taichu Hall; whether your mother can cause a ripple is a different matter."
With that, Lu Jin'an once more sealed all the key acupoints in Mu Qingyue's body, rendering her spiritual energy and demon energy completely incapable of circulating.
"Junior Brother Lu, since you ntioned Lu Yunzhu, aren't you worried she'll find out about your affair with Aunt Ruo... mmm mmm mmm..."
Before the words were finished, she was rendered speechless.
Watching this, Xiao Yinruo's eyes widened, especially seeing Lu Jin'an's fingers as he nestled the buckle into Mu Qingyue's hair, her lips parted a little wider.
Wasn't all that Mu Qingyue's stuff?
You little rascal, you're this proficient with it?
So that's how that thing is used...
Curious.
Xiao Yinruo secretly swallowed, but then, feeling Mu Qingyue's gaze, she quickly urged Lu Jin'an.
According to Mu Qingyue's prearranged plan, the more frightened and pleading Aunt Ruo seed, the higher the likelihood of success.
"Jin'an, don't be like this..." Xiao Yinruo extended her hands to grab his arms: "Consider it for Aunt's sake, don't pressure her like this, what if, if..."
"Aunt Ruo!" Lu Jin'an intensified his tone: "You are the dignified Palace Master of Qingmiao Palace, a powerful cultivator of the Divine Concealing Realm, how can you be scared by her?
If you don't properly teach her, she'll never understand what is wrong, what is fear!"
"Yes, yes..."
"Just stay there and watch quietly." Lu Jin'an withdrew his gaze: "Leave the rest to ."
Xiao Yinruo glanced at Mu Qingyue, who was struggling fiercely, as if to say, "We've gone this far, isn't that enough?"
Mu Qingyue struggled with muffled cries, knocking many things off the table onto the floor, while drool slid from her chin like a young fish about to feast.
Xiao Yinruo didn't get any eye signal from Mu Qingyue, so her expression remained tentative, not realizing she was already part of Mu Qingyue's calculation.
The more Aunt Ruo hesitated, the angrier Junior Brother would beco.
And indeed, Mu Qingyue clearly felt Junior Brother's grip tightening.
"Aunt Ruo, step aside!"
Lu Jin'an said this and bent over to whisper in Mu Qingyue's ear: "Senior Sister, have I treated you too well recently? Have you forgotten how I counteracted you before?"
Aunt Ruo isn't too bad to you either, why would you dare threaten her?"
"Today you dare threaten her, are you going to dare threaten your little aunt soday, hmm?"
Mu Qingyue struggled more on the table, but her heart was beating faster.
This is the tone of Junior Brother she loved hearing most~
Though Mu Qingyue spoke of resisting, in her unclear speech she conveyed a stance of not letting them off.
Lu Jin'an observed her movents and slightly frowned, yet continued selecting items from the table nonchalantly: "Didn't you say your mother would help you? We've gone this far, why hasn't she appeared, hmm?"
Mu Qingyue naturally couldn't refute him through speech, rely kept pinching and kicking Lu Jin'an.
Lu Jin'an took a half step forward, bending his knee to press down her rebellious legs, about to speak more when he suddenly turned to look towards the window.
A flash of demon energy appeared and vanished; it wasn't Master's, but sowhat resembled Huang Ningshang's.
Is Senior Sister serious?
Lu Jin'an squinted slightly; Xiao Yinruo's expression froze too. Was this girl Qingyue really serious when she said she was acting???
But why did this demon energy disappear so quickly... was it really Lu Yunzhu?
At this mont Mu Qingyue's struggle paused, though unclear of the happening, she wouldn't miss this chance.
With an eerie laugh, she suddenly tilted her head backwards, hitting Lu Jin'an's chin with the back of her head, unable to hide her smugness.
Lu Jin'an frowned slightly and imdiately slapped down: "I've said even if Senior Huang ca, there wouldn't be any trouble. What's there to be smug about?!"
Mu Qingyue simply glared at him 'harshly,' as if showing she would succeed one day.
Lu Jin'an tugged at the corner of his mouth: "Senior Sister, you brought this on yourself!"
Inside the room, Mu Qingyue's ankle she had curled up touched her hands tied behind her back.
Xiao Yinruo widened her eyes at this scene, completely not daring to speak.
Now several things made sense to her, like Qingyue's threats were all for this mont, but...
Why?
Why would this girl be willing to go this far for this purpose?
Is she... really happy?
The candlelight inside flickered hauntingly.
Xiao Yinruo stood in the corner like a wronged girl, her expression constantly changing, clearly shocked.
Outside.
Pei Wanyu leaned against the bridge corridor over the lake, her eyes mysteriously observing the shadows reflected from the window.
Everyone had things they liked doing, hmm, that's nice.
Retracting her gaze, she looked to the side, Lu Yunzhu was still educating Zhiyu, allowing Qingyue to enjoy herself.
If it were discovered that Yinruo was also present, it might not be good.
Pei Wanyu let out a small sigh, the demon energy from Huang Ningshang gradually dissipating at her fingertips.
She extracted it from the Parasol Tree, and it was conveniently useful.
She could hear how happy Qingyue was.
