Chapter 34: Don’t like him anymore, it’s not worth it, and there’s no possibility…

On the other side, the ice pool.

Feng Xue frowned, somewhat dissatisfied, and said, "Mu Qing has a fever. Ever since she disappeared from the prison, the Mu family has been searching all over Kyoto for her. They don't know that Mu Qing is actually in her own courtyard. The Mu family couldn't find her, so she's left alone in that courtyard. Now no one cares whether she lives or dies."

Li Jing's breath caught in his throat, and he repeated Feng Xue's words in a low, hoarse voice, "Fever?" He lowered his eyes to hide the emotions stirring in his eyes. "Cure her. It's just a small thing for you."

Feng Xue immediately retorted, "Yes, illness is a small matter. What about Xin? Who is responsible for her serious illness? Besides, the Mu family hasn't noticed her return yet. If they had, would they have sent someone to take care of her or would they have punished her? Prince Yan was seriously injured in that fight with us, so he's unable to look for Mu Qing now."

Li Jing frowned slightly and said hoarsely, "The Mu family is not so soft-hearted."

After Li Yan imprisoned Mu Xingchen in the dungeon, the Mu family went to Prince Yan to demand his release. When Li Yan refused to release him, the Mu family filed a petition impeaching him and dispatched forces to the dungeon to forcibly retrieve him. However, they unexpectedly encountered an accident while Li Yan was still inside.

Feng Xue was puzzled: "Doesn't the Mu family value her? Then why would they rather break up with Prince Yan to take her back?"

Li Jing said calmly, "Because Li Yan wants Mu Qing's life, and in this way. Who are the people imprisoned in the secret cell? If Mu Qing dies, it will be a disgrace to the Mu family. In this capital, the Mu family is extremely powerful. Mu Qi cannot allow himself to become a real laughing stock. Besides, the Mu family can be the emperor's dogs, but they can never be Li Yan's."

There was a hint of disgust in Fengxue's eyes. These people were truly hypocritical to the extreme. They did it for the sake of face and for those ridiculous suspicions. In short, they were not sincere.

"Master, have you really given up on Mu Qing?" Feng Xue asked with a complicated look.

Li Jing's brows furrowed even more. Giving up Mu Qing? There was nothing between him and Mu Qing originally. It was just her wishful thinking.

"Don't let the Mu family find her first." Li Jing said lightly.

Feng Xue's breath caught in her throat. She wanted to say something but couldn't. She frowned as she looked at Li Yan, and finally asked, "Master, won't you go and take a look?" The Master was still worried about Mu Qing. If Mu Qing was discovered by the Mu family, even if they didn't hand her over, she would still be punished.

Li Jing closed his eyes and said coldly, "Get out."

Fengxue pursed her lips and left the ice pool silently.

At nightfall.

Mu Xingchen woke up drowsily.

Xiao Qi noticed that she was awake and said happily, "You finally woke up, Xingchen. You slept for a whole day and night."

Mu Xingchen rubbed her forehead and said in a daze, "Yeah, I fell asleep." She hadn't slept for so long in a long time.

Xiao Qi: "Are you feeling better?"

Mu Xingchen yawned: "Much better."

She turned her head and looked outside at the sky, only to see that it was already completely dark outside.

"I don't know what the Mu family's reaction is now. I have been back for two days, and no one has come to this yard until now." Mu Xingchen frowned slightly.

Xiao Qi: "Now you are a missing person, I didn't expect you to be here, it's normal. However, considering Mu Qing's treatment in the Mu family, it is questionable whether they will find her. Maybe they will just let her disappear. Even if they find her, they will probably hand her over to Prince Yan." Xiao Qi suddenly realized that something was wrong, "Xingchen! How do you plan to end this matter?"

Mu Xingchen's lips curled slightly: "End? Why should it end? Isn't it over yet?"

Xiao Qi was silent. "You mean..."

The curve of Mu Xingchen's mouth became wider and wider. The mission centered around Li Yan had not just begun.

There's nothing wrong with her except that she has a strong desire for revenge. She dared to strangle her and put her in jail, haha.

Mu Xingchen's eyes gradually became dark and terrifying.

Xiaoqi suddenly felt a chill around her and she shivered in the bracelet.

"Why do I have a bad feeling?" As soon as the words fell.

Mu Xingchen suddenly looked out the door. She took a deep breath and gritted her teeth, "Xiao Qi! Are you a crow's mouth?"

Xiao Qi was speechless. She could also feel the undisguised aura outside the door through her bracelet.

"Who knows? Why is that man here again? Let me out, I'll scold him."

Mu Xingchen closed his eyes, took a deep breath and lay down.

The aura lingered outside the door and refused to leave, but also refused to come in.

As time passed, the figure was still hovering outside the door.

Xiao Qi said angrily, "What do you mean? Why aren't you leaving yet? Could it be that you regret not killing you that day and want to kill you again today?"

Mu Xingchen said calmly, "I didn't sense any killing intent."

Xiao Qi: "Then why did he come here? Could it be that he missed you? Did he regret what he did?"

Mu Xingchen: "...You can't ask a psychopath, oh no, demon, to do normal things."

The next second, the door was pushed open with a creak.

Li Jing saw the slightly arched figure on the bed through the screen. Her breathing was even and she seemed to be sleeping soundly.

He hesitated for a few seconds and then walked around the screen.

There were two candles burning in the room, one outside the screen and the other on a candlestick next to her.

In the candlelight, her face looked even paler, almost transparent. Her lips had lost their former color, and white, cracked dead skin hung on her mouth. She looked as weak as a seriously injured dying person.

Li Jing's breathing paused for a second.

Why did she become like this? Lying motionless on the bed, pale as if she would shatter in the next second.

Did he scare her too much?

Li Jing's eyelashes trembled slightly.

She was originally very timid and couldn't stand being scared, especially during these days when she was at her weakest.

Fengxue said that because of his actions, she was overly frightened and overly sad. She hadn't eaten or drunk anything in the past few days, and her heart was filled with despair.

Unable to bear these emotions, her body began to develop a fever and she passed out completely. While in the coma, she became increasingly weak due to fear and constant nightmares, and she was unable to wake up. No one cared about her, and she was left here to fend for herself.

She originally just liked him, and because of her love, she risked her life to save him twice and bravely expressed her feelings to him, but what about him?

He wanted to kill her, and it was clear that he had the intention to kill her.

A trace of bitterness flashed through Li Jing's heart, and his breathing became a little heavier.

In her sleep, her brows were still furrowed, and there were tears in the corners of her eyes. Was she thinking about his ruthlessness over and over again in her sleep?

Li Jing's breathing became heavier, and he turned his head away, unable to bear to look at her again.

The room was thick with the smell of blood. These past few days had always been her weakest, and after being hurt by him, she was even more fragile. Her health wasn't good to begin with, and as a human being unable to cultivate spirituality, the slightest wind and rain could have killed her.

Li Jing turned his head with a frown on his face. He wanted to take a step forward, but he stopped himself in the end.

After a moment of silence, he raised his hand and began to continuously transport spiritual power into her body.

Time passes by every second.

After a while, Li Jing slowly stopped. He coughed lightly, and blood spurted out of the corner of his mouth uncontrollably. Waves of pain in his chest came again. The silver hair draped over his shoulders turned increasingly white, almost transparent, and his face was as pale as paper.

The room was filled with Li Jing's rapid breathing. He covered his chest and forced himself to suppress the tearing pain.

After taking a few seconds to catch his breath, he slowly walked forward.

Mu Xingchen's complexion now looked much better than before, and his lips also had a little more color than before.

Li Jing pulled the corner of his mouth slightly and sighed helplessly.

He took a step further and subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, but he seemed to think of something, his hand froze in mid-air and then quickly withdrew.

A feeling of restlessness hit Li Jing's heart. His eyes sank and he looked indifferently at the shadow beside her that was flickering with the faint candlelight.

In the dim light, the shadow danced with a hint of joy, but the candle was almost burned out.

Don't like him anymore, it's not worth it and there is no possibility.

The next second, the figure in the room disappeared silently, leaving only the person pretending to sleep on the bed.

Mu Xingchen stood up suddenly, and she said with a complicated and annoyed expression: "No, he is sick!"

Running to treat her wounds in the middle of the night? What happened before that? What happened to pressing a leaf against her neck? Was it considered a hobby?

Xiao Qi laughed wildly: "Perverts have different styles, hahahahahaha..."

Mu Xingchen raised her hand and felt a warm current flowing in her body. This spiritual power was nourishing her body.

Her expression became more complicated. How could she not know how badly he was injured since she was the one who did it?

His demon pill was almost gone, and a medicine king-level pill saved him, but now he was attacked again.

Mu Xingchen suddenly laughed out loud, her eyes slightly curved, and she said in a cold tone: "It's not fishable like this, and I thought it was so amazing."

Xiao Qi said excitedly: "Xingchen, then do we still have hope? You can still be him."

Mu Xingchen's eyes moved, she leaned on the pillow, the curve of her mouth became wider and wider.

So the murderous intention was due to the uncontrollable beating of the heart?

When did it all start? No...I guess it was love at first sight.

Xiao Qi fantasized, "According to the way it's portrayed in TV dramas, he's definitely too deeply in love to restrain himself."

The curve of Mu Xingchen's mouth grew wider, and she said lazily, "If that were true, he wouldn't have the intention to kill. It's not easy to take over the management of a half-demon, but it was his bad luck that he ran into me."

Tsk, doesn't he have a grudge against Li Yan? Isn't he pretending not to care? She's here to stir up trouble in Kyoto and see if he'll show up again.
