Mu Huan, on the other hand, was exhausted. He glanced at his spiritual beast, which had collapsed after only a few steps, and was furious. What a shady businessman!
There was no other way, I could only rely on my own legs. Ever since returning from the extremely cold land, I had been staying at the academy. If I went further, it would be to eat at Yujiang Tower or compete in the Youshan Mountains.
Looking at his legs, Mu Huan muttered, "You should show some courage. Luoluo might be suffering there right now." If he was caught, there would be nothing good to eat, and he probably wouldn't be able to sleep well.
So, thanks to Mu Huan's strong legs, it took him almost an entire afternoon to finally reach the gate of the temple.
Outside the door stood rows and rows of white guards holding spears. Mu Huan peeked in. There were a lot of people inside too! Was it to protect her from thieves? Or was it to protect her? Didn't they invite her? Why wasn't there a grand welcome ceremony? Well, she was just thinking about it.
Just when Mu Huan was thinking about how to sneak in safely, he was suddenly patted on the shoulder, and he trembled all over with fear.
Slowly turning his head, he saw Qingluo standing in an open space only one or two meters away from him.
"I've been waiting for Miss Mu for a long time!" Qingluo smiled, but the smile did not reach her eyes.
"What's your plan? You've tried so hard to lure me here, it's more than just a simple reunion!"
What a joke! How could I possibly reminisce about this Saint Lady Qingluo when I don't even know her? Only this idiotic Saint Lady could be so shameless as to come up with such an excuse, unafraid to make others laugh.
"Miss Mu, what are you talking about? What kind of conspiracy could a candidate saint like me have?" Qingluo just smiled, but the smile faded a lot, and there was some hostility in her eyes.
"Maybe it's because she's not a decent person, so she has a lot of evil ideas in her mind!" Mu Huan curled his lips. To be honest, he didn't want to be polite to this woman on the surface. After all, she had too many evil thoughts in her mind.
Now it was Qingluo's turn to be speechless. She hadn't expected Mu Huan to be so direct. She smiled awkwardly, "Ms. Mu, you're really as humorous as the rumors say!"
"I didn't expect I'm so famous!" Mu Huan pinched his chin, pretending to think.
"Miss Mu has been traveling for the entire afternoon and must be tired. Why don't Qingluo take Miss Mu to rest first?" The previous topic could not be continued because Mu Huan did not play by the rules at all.
"I am a little tired, but I don't need to rest. If you have anything to talk to me about, just tell me here. And please release my friend by the way." Mu Huan really didn't want to stay in a hypocritical place like the temple for even a moment longer.
"My business is not urgent, but Miss Mu may need a good rest." Qingluo never mentioned leaving, and her words showed a firm attitude that Mu Huan must stay.
"..." Fine, since you've begged me to stay, I can't refuse you. "Lead the way!" I want to see what you're up to.
"Please!" Qingluo stretched out her hand and made a "please" gesture, then led Mu Huan to the yard where she lived.
Walking along the quiet path, this green ivy yard is quite peaceful, with green ivy planted everywhere, lush and verdant.
Well! It's quite suitable for living here when you are old. That's it!
"Miss Mu, please stay in my humble abode today. We can talk about our business tomorrow." Hua Ling is back, and she can't let her have an easy first day after her return. She has to find some fault to make her uncomfortable.
Mu Huan glanced at Qingluo indifferently. What on earth was this woman up to? Well, just go along with her for now. After all, when the time comes, we can deal with it as soon as possible. There is no need to be afraid. "Yeah!"
"Then Qingluo will not disturb Miss Mu's rest." Qingluo went out and left the yard.
"You're quite generous. You left me here alone and aren't afraid that I'll raid your lair!" Mu Huan walked around. For some reason, the style of this courtyard looked more and more familiar. He felt as if he had seen it somewhere before.
Suddenly, he glanced and saw the green silk flower in the corner. He squatted down, looked at the delicate and beautiful flower, picked one, and carefully put it to his nose to smell it.
Yes, it was the variety she was familiar with, and also her favorite. What on earth was this Qingluo trying to do? It had designed to lead her here, and her favorite Qingsi flower was planted in the yard...
"Could it be that I am really the person in the portrait of the Palace Master?" It is really unbelievable. This Qingluo might want to use her to get to the top!
"I only took a quick glance last time, and that Palace Master does look quite decent!" He was just a bit less impressive than her beautiful Master. However, that appearance was enough to attract many women.
She clenched the green silk flower in her hand, determined to resolve all her doubts right here and now! Her master didn't like her associating with the temple or its master, so she had to obey him.
Walking along the cobblestone path, the courtyard was quiet, but it felt like a calm beneath the surface of a storm. Leaving the courtyard, the temple was magnificent, with crystal-inlaid pillars everywhere, and each pillar held a massive, luminous pearl.
After all, it was someone else's territory, so Mu Huan couldn't be so arrogant. He "sneaked" and held onto the wall, taking each step carefully.
"Qingluo, what do you mean?" Oh, it was Hua Ling's voice.
"It's nothing special!" Qingluo spread her hands, "I just came out specially to welcome our Lady Saint." No one knew what the Palace Master admired about this woman, but he actually promoted her to be a formal Saint and allowed her to stay by his side and serve him.
Qingluo clenched her hands, her fingertips whitening. She was about to go mad with jealousy. Why? They had entered the temple together, so why did Hua Ling deserve such favor from the temple master?
"Heh! You sound like you're quite resentful about my election as the official Saint." Hua Ling folded her arms and calmly watched Qingluo's expression gradually worsening.
"How dare I! After all, it's the Palace Master's decision. Qingluo is just giving her blessing." I've endured it for so many years, so there's no need to rush.
"Oh? Really?" Such a lame excuse to fool a child? Hua Ling didn't expose it. After all, they were in the same temple together, seeing each other all day long. Besides, she never said she was a good person. There are ten thousand ways to do it... Damn Qingluo.
Mu Huan, who was "hiding" behind the wall, eavesdropped on an exciting corner of the wall. She dared to say that this was definitely the most interesting corner of the wall she had ever heard of.
Her tongue licked her lips and then touched the back of her teeth. Mu Huan's eyes lit up. It had been a long time since she had seen such a thrilling dog-eat-dog drama and infighting. She had wanted to continue her pursuit of the corner, but it turned out that the other party had obviously stopped fighting.
How boring! Mu Huan curled her lips. It was a pity that she could only listen and couldn't see the angry expression on Hua Ling's face.
"Greetings, Palace Master!" Mu Huan paused as she was about to leave. She had been arguing peacefully, so why had it suddenly died down? It turned out that some important figure had arrived.
