Chapter 75 Opening "Your Highness, if you don't stop, aren't you afraid that Mu Qing will die...
Mu Xingchen looked at the back of the maid in front of him with a darker look in his eyes.
Xiao Qi was puzzled: "Why don't you leave? If you don't go now, the banquet will start."
Mu Xingchen rubbed her index finger slightly under her sleeve. She pursed her lips, her eyes full of complexity.
"I can't leave now. If I leave now, I'll be the first one to be suspected once I pass on the news of Li Jing's identity to that guest."
She had just come into contact with him when his identity was exposed. There was no such coincidence in the world.
Xiao Qi: "What should we do now?"
Mu Xingchen's lips curled up slightly: "What should I do? Of course I should divert the trouble away."
She raised her hand and looked at the poison thread on her wrist. She said in a deep voice, "Xiao Qi, help me suppress it for now."
"Okay." The next second, the pull of the poison on her wrist disappeared, and Mu Xingchen also disappeared from the spot in an instant.
In the cold spring, Li Jing was closing his eyes and forcibly suppressing the burning breath in his body.
"My Lord, I have sent Miss Mu back."
"Um."
The next second, Li Jing's eyes suddenly opened wide. He turned his head and looked outside the hall and said coldly, "You brought back a tail."
The maid immediately looked outside the hall in horror, she stood up and immediately chased after him.
Li Jing's face darkened, and he disappeared into the cold spring the next second.
In an instant.
Mu Xingchen's way was blocked outside the door, and in front of him was the palace wall where he could leave the palace, just one step away.
In front of her was Li Jing, and behind her was the maid.
Looking at Li Jing, who was full of murderous intent, Mu Xingchen raised his eyebrows and said fearlessly, "Your Highness, I know nothing."
The maid's face changed and she said anxiously, "Master, kill her!"
Li Jing narrowed his eyes and slapped Mu Xingchen with murderous intent.
Mu Xingchen faced the palm strike head-on without changing his smile.
"Bang!" The surrounding walls suddenly turned to ashes, and the maid was shaken several meters away. She knelt on the ground and spit out several mouthfuls of blood.
She raised her head in disbelief and said, "How is this possible? It's you! It's actually you! How did you appear in the palace? My Lord, she is that evil cultivator! Kill her!!"
Mu Xingchen turned her head and her eyes fixed, "She is Fengxue!" she said with certainty.
Xiao Qi sneered and said, "It seems that his injuries are almost healed, but he still wants to kill you."
Feng Xue, still determined, raised her sword and lunged at Mu Xingchen again, but the surrounding Shura Field's spiritual energy prevented her from getting through. She was directly thrown several meters away by the surrounding barriers. She half-knelt on the ground, and even thicker blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.
Mu Xingchen's breathing stopped when he saw this scene.
Xiao Qi reminded: "Xingchen, hurry up and finish it, someone is coming!"
Turning around, she saw Li Jing's murderous aura growing stronger. At this moment, a red evil aura in his hand attacked her directly. The next second, Mu Xingchen's eyes were as hot as a sea of magma and fire, and as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
The two evil spirits pulled to the extreme caused her chest to begin to ache.
What's even worse is that his evil spirit is devouring her spiritual power.
He was determined to kill her today.
As the dark fog in front of him grew larger, Mu Xingchen's face began to turn pale.
She hadn't practiced for a year, and compared to Li Jing, whose injuries were almost healed and making rapid progress, she felt a little overwhelmed.
Xiao Qi said anxiously: "Xingchen, he dare not release too much evil energy, otherwise people will notice his demonic power, kill him!"
Mu Xingchen's eyes narrowed.
The spiritual energy in the surroundings surged and blew, stirring up every flower and tree around and shattering them into pieces.
The next second, Mu Xingchen narrowed his eyes.
She suddenly laughed, a laugh that was extremely ostentatious. She raised her eyebrows and threatened provocatively: "Your Highness, if you don't stop, aren't you afraid that Mu Qing will die?"
Li Jing's eyes narrowed, "You dare!" His murderous aura instantly overwhelmed the sky, and the air around him was completely plundered in an instant. Feng Xue beside him spat out blood again.
But at the same time, Li Jing's situation was not much better. His breath became disordered for a second, and the spiritual power around him became more violent.
A purple light flashed in Mu Xingchen's pupils, and in an instant a huge mental pressure poured out from his body.
Li Jing's eyes went white for a second.
"Bang!" Two streams of spiritual power exploded instantly. Li Jing turned his head and a few strands of hair fell straight to his ears.
After a puff of dust, the person in front of him disappeared, leaving only a few drops of blood on the ground.
Feng Xue raised her head and said in shock, "Master! You can't let her go!"
Li Jing frowned, looked at the blood on the ground and said in a deep voice: "Check! See whose hand is injured." After that, he chose to return to the palace without any hesitation.
Fengxue closed her eyes and punched the ground hard, and the floor immediately shattered into pieces.
She took off the mask with difficulty, and her eyes were filled with endless hatred.
"Fengxue, are you okay?" Xu Cen rushed over from behind. He supported her and asked, "What happened?"
Feng Xue panted, "The master..." Her face was pale. "There's a risk of his identity being exposed. It's that evil cultivator. She's appeared in the palace. She must be killed, she must be killed!!!" She turned around and asked, "Where's the master? Did he go after that woman?"
Xu Cen pursed his lips and said hesitantly: "The master went to see Miss Mu."
Fengxue turned her head, her eyes were dark, and her palms were clenched tightly until blood came out.
"Kill her." She said secretly.
Xu Cen was stunned for a moment, then hesitated and asked, "Who did you kill?"
"Kill Mu Qing!" she said without hesitation.
Xu Cen's face changed, "No! Are you going to die, Fengxue!"
Feng Xue wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and stood up. Her eyes were bloodshot as she said, "Even if I die, I will kill her!" She turned around and said angrily, "At the beginning, the master said he wouldn't be influenced by anyone, but Xu Cen, I just saw it. When the master and that woman were fighting, his aura was disordered for a second, and that second gave that woman the opportunity to escape! Now he is even risking his identity to save Mu Qing."
She grabbed Xu Cen's sleeve tightly and said inwardly: "Xu Cen, what's the difference between what the Lord did and Kui Jun? Can you disregard the safety of your people for the sake of the one you like?"
Xu Cen's breathing stagnated, and he said in a deep voice: "Fengxue, believe in the Lord."
"I can't believe it!" Feng Xue said with bloodshot eyes, "I dare not think about what will happen if Mu Qing is not dead. As long as she is alive, she is the master's weakness. Once she falls into the hands of others..." She simply did not dare to think about what would happen.
"Xu Cen, do you know why the demon race ended up like that a thousand years ago? Zong Bei died that way. We must not repeat the same mistake. We must kill her!"
Xu Cen's eyes darkened, he moved his lips but in the end said nothing.
On the other side, Mu Xingchen looked at the burst blood vessels on his arm, gritted his teeth, took off his underwear and wrapped it around his arm.
She was shocked and said, "Xiao Qi! This injury..."
Xiao Qi immediately pinched the healing magic on her arm and said solemnly, "I will fall into a deep sleep during this period. I will wake up after you complete this mission."
As the wound was covered with a steady stream of spiritual power, it became smooth and there was no trace of injury at all.
Mu Xingchen panted and closed her eyes, "Don't worry." After that, she took off her underwear, cleaned up the bloodstains, and immediately returned to the bedroom next to where she had fainted.
Almost the second after she lay down, Li Jing came over.
Mu Xingchen was shocked when she heard the approaching footsteps. If she was a second late, she would be completely exposed.
But she really didn't expect that he would choose to come to her first instead of continuing to chase the so-called "evil cultivator".
The moment Li Jing saw Mu Xingchen, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. He slowly loosened his grip, squatted down tremblingly, and then carefully hugged her.
Then he began to check her injuries, and after checking to make sure she was not injured, he breathed a sigh of relief again.
"I'm sorry. I won't let you out of my sight again." He said hoarsely, pressing his forehead against hers.
The next second, the two of them disappeared into the hall together.
At the palace banquet.
Mu Qi asked Mu Qingtian with an ugly expression: "Where is the person? Have you found him?"
Mu Qingtian shook his head: "I didn't find it."
Mu Qi frowned and said anxiously, "It's okay if Mu Qing can't be found, but Xin'er must be found! Keep looking, and we must find her before the banquet starts."
"Yes, father." Mu Qingtian went to look for someone again with a cold face.
Just before the palace banquet began, Mu Xingchen returned quietly.
She looked at where Mu Lin was, then sat next to her.
Seeing this, Mu Qi quickly walked over and asked, "Mu Qing, where is Xin'er?"
Mu Xingchen looked up in confusion and asked, "Third sister isn't here? But I haven't seen her."
"Where did you go?"
"I went to a toilet and got lost."
Mu Qi's heart suddenly sank, and his face became even more anxious.
Mu Qinxin shined brightly on the stage today and attracted much attention. It would be disrespectful if she was discovered not attending the palace banquet at this time.
He sighed deeply and sat back in his seat.
"The Emperor and Empress have arrived! The Empress Dowager has arrived!"
…
The other side.
Southeast Palace.
Xu Cen reported solemnly, "Master, the banquet is about to begin, but the only person not present is the third young lady of the Mu family, Mu Qinxin."
Li Jing narrowed his eyes coldly: "Investigate."
"yes."
…….
"The palace banquet has begun!!!"
“Dong——”
"dance!!!"
In an instant, countless dancers in the hall danced to the accompaniment of string and bamboo music, creating a lively atmosphere.
Just when everyone was engrossed in the performance, Mu Qinxin came back.
She rushed back from the back hall door and sat back in her seat quietly. Fortunately, everyone's attention was on the singing and dancing, and no one noticed her.
Mu Qi on the opposite side was always worried, and only felt relieved when he saw Mu Qinxin coming back.
Mu Qinxin sat back in her seat, her brows furrowed, a murderous look in her eyes.
She turned her head to look at Mu Lin, then asked in a cold voice, "Second sister, you led me to the side hall, then had someone knock me unconscious and then injured my hand. Did you want me to come to the banquet so that His Majesty could punish me, or did you want to vent your brother's anger?"
Mu Lin immediately apologized softly, "I'm sorry, Third Sister. I did have something to ask you at the time, but my father called me back, so I didn't go. Although I missed my appointment, it was unintentional. As for what you said next, I really don't know what you meant. With your level of cultivation, who could knock you out? Let alone hurt you."
Mu Qinxin narrowed her eyes. She was also very confused. The man had such high cultivation level that she fainted without even seeing his face.
There is no such person in the Mu family.
Suddenly, she thought of something, and...she looked at Mu Xingchen with some fear.
Mu Qinxin picked up a glass of wine with her left hand tremblingly, and said in a cold voice: "In this way, it is unfair to big sister." After that, she moved her right hand calmly, her brows furrowed, and there was an unrelieved gloom in her heart.
Mu Lin smiled and said, "Just explain it clearly." After that, the smile on her lips cooled down, and she turned her head to look at Mu Xingchen sharply.
Mu Xingchen felt the gaze and turned around, wondering, "Why are you looking at me like that, Second Sister?"
Mu Lin turned her head and whispered, "Big sister, do you know that I received a note today?"
"What note?" Mu Xingchen asked puzzledly.
Mu Lin smiled and said, "Nothing." Her eyes were full of coldness.
Half an hour ago, she received a note asking her to lead Mu Qinxin to a side hall and threatening to kill the owner of the Gold Medal Forging Shop if she didn't.
She didn't know who sent the note, but she couldn't afford to take the risk.
But what she didn't expect was that Mu Qinxin was injured when she came back.
Mu Lin looked at Mu Xingchen with a complicated expression, the coldness in her eyes growing stronger and stronger.
