Mo Chen frowned. "The people of the royal city are generally kind-hearted. This must be just rumors spread by outsiders."
Hua Yuxian frowned and looked coldly at Mo Chen. "A few days ago when I was drunk, are you sure you really didn't do anything to me?"
Mo Chen's lips twitched involuntarily. "Big sister, how could I dare!"
Hua Yuxian snorted coldly, "Hmph, I knew you wouldn't dare!"
Mo Chen sighed, "In that case, you should stay here with me for now and avoid trouble."
As he spoke, Mo Chen walked into the room and began packing his luggage. Seeing this, Hua Yuxian thought he was going to run away and stepped forward to stop him, saying, "Hey, do you really think you can just run away like this?"
"What do you mean, run away? Why would I need to run away? I just need to go out for a while!" Mo Chen rolled his eyes.
"That won't do! Leaving me here alone, what if I, a girl, run into bad people?" Hua Yuxian said sweetly.
"Good heavens! It's a miracle that bad guys can run away from you!" Mo Chen rolled his eyes. Hua Yuxian being bullied by bad guys? That's impossible!
Upon hearing Mo Chen's words, Hua Yuxian immediately became displeased. "Mo Chen! Are you even a man?!"
"What? You want to verify it?" Mo Chen almost burst out laughing.
"You..." Hua Yuxian's face flushed red, and she said, "Anyway, I don't care, you can't go anywhere until our relationship is clarified!"
"Hey, why are you blaming me? Even faking an accident wouldn't be like this!" Mo Chen had a headache.
Hua Yuxian frowned and pressed down hard on Mo Chen's bundle. "You're not going anywhere!"
Mo Chen frowned, looking at Hua Yuxian with a serious expression. "Since you're worried about your reputation being damaged, fine, I, Mo Chen, swear that if I come back alive, I will marry you!"
Hua Yuxian stood frozen in place, her whole body burning: What, what is this lecherous rogue saying? He was just asked to clarify their relationship, how could he say such a thing…
While Hua Yuxian was still in a daze, Mo Chen had already snatched the luggage and packed it up. He then turned and put on his backpack, glanced at Hua Yuxian, and said, "This trip is a matter of life and death. If I can't come back, you should leave the royal city and find another place!"
After saying that, he jumped out of the window and left.
Hua Yuxian hurriedly chased after him to the window, watching his dashing departing figure, her heart filled with mixed emotions: "Mo Chen, have I fallen for you...?"
Just as Hua Yuxian was wondering, she suddenly sensed a second person's presence in the room. Hua Yuxian's expression immediately turned cold. "What are you hiding for? Come out now!"
Habib knelt on one knee and respectfully said, "Captain Xian'er, the Grand Strategist has sent word that you are to return to Black Dragon Mountain."
Hua Yuxian squinted at the view outside the window, not knowing where she was going, and slowly said, "I understand..."
Habi was somewhat surprised and didn't dare to ask further. Instead, she said, "Captain Xian'er, I've been secretly following Qing'er recently and discovered that she..."
"Speak your mind! Hesitation is not the way of a man!" Having grown accustomed to speaking frankly with Mo Chen lately, Hua Yuxian was becoming increasingly disgusted with Habi.
Habibah frowned slightly, clearly displeased by Hua Yuxian's cold words, but still spoke respectfully, "Qing'er has already become Mo Han's disciple. Mo Han's identity can be confirmed as an enemy, so I suggest..."
Hua Yuxian's gaze suddenly turned cold. "So you think Qing'er betrayed us?"
Habiqa shuddered, "Yes, yes..."
“Qing’er did not betray us. I sent her undercover to gather intelligence on the enemy,” Hua Yuxian said, squinting her eyes.
Habija was taken aback. "But she..."
"If you doubt her, you're doubting me, understand?" Hua Yuxian turned around and looked coldly at Habi.
"Your subordinate dares not!" Habibah lowered his head.
"Go back and tell the Grand Strategist that Qing'er and I will rush back as soon as we finish assassinating Wang Qiankun!" Hua Yuxian said.
"yes!"
After Habien left, Hua Yuxian sat alone at the table, gazing at the bright moon that appeared outside the window. She took a sip of her wine and said, "It seems we have to take action..."
——
Early in the morning, Wang Qiankun got up and prepared to go find Hua Yue. For some reason, he had been feeling a little uneasy lately.
"Could it be that I'm feeling scared at this moment?" Wang Qiankun shook his head and gave a bitter smile. He had been on the battlefield since he was a child, so what could possibly frighten him?
If there is one available right now, it's only...
Looking at the somewhat dilapidated house, Wang Qiankun smiled slightly. This was exactly what he had been hoping for: a home that wasn't luxurious or noisy, but was filled with happiness.
"Little sleepyhead, are you up yet?" Wang Qiankun said with a smile. "I brought your favorite snacks, get up quickly..."
The moment he pushed open the door, Wang Qiankun froze on the spot. The bloodstains all over the floor made all his words futile!
Thud—
The pastries in his hand fell to the ground. Wang Qiankun rushed out the door, shouting, "Who did this? Who made this?! Come out here!"
Wang Qiankun's body trembled slightly, his fists were clenched so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh, and drops of blood flowed out.
No sooner had he finished speaking than a hidden weapon suddenly shot towards him. Wang Qiankun rolled away to dodge it, but no one was around him.
Turning his gaze, he noticed that the throwing knife was bound with a strip of cloth. Wang Qiankun immediately untied the cloth, revealing clearly written on it—
"The one I long for is in the middle of the water; dare you come to fight?"
"Hua Yue!" Wang Qiankun's gaze turned cold.
——
Hua Yue was tied to the river, the icy current crashing against her body. Her shoulder was cut by a knife and blood was still flowing, making her shiver uncontrollably.
The figure on the shore was Hua Yuxian herself, coldly watching Hua Yue, a hint of pleasure flashing in her eyes. "You little pheasant, let's see if you still dare to dream of flying up to the treetop!"
