Mu Chenshuang planned to go to Yaoguang Residence to talk to Fu Junheng about providing her with morning dew water every day, since treating his illness required extremely rare spiritual herbs.
Mu Chenshuang left Linglong to guard the inner courtyard and did not take her with her. After all, with four pairs of eyes watching them, it was better to be cautious. She still needed to find a way to bring back someone she could trust.
However, she had not yet left the inner courtyard.
suddenly.
A soft whip, whipped by a fierce wind, hurtled straight toward her face; the whip sheath was already upon her.
Mu Chenshuang reacted quickly, grabbing the whip and looking up sharply at the young woman holding it.
She wore her hair in a high bun, had a pretty face and fair skin, and looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, with an arrogant and domineering air about her.
Xue Jiajia held the whip, looked at Mu Chenshuang with contempt and disdain, and said provocatively, "Miss Mu is indeed skilled. Today, I will have to learn from her."
No sooner said than done.
Xue Jiajia withdrew her whip and relentlessly attacked Mu Chenshuang, giving Mu Chenshuang no chance to speak.
"Take this!"
Mu Chenshuang stepped forward and dodged the attack, but the orchid pot placed next to her was directly whipped into pieces.
Xue Jiajia immediately lashed out with her whip again, but Mu Chenshuang grabbed her arm. Xue Jiajia tried to pull back the whip, but this time Mu Chenshuang was on guard and didn't give Xue Jiajia a chance.
Mu Chenshuang stared sharply at Xue Jiajia, "If you don't stop, don't blame me for being impolite."
Xue Jiajia looked up and met Mu Chenshuang's cold and terrifying eyes. Her heart skipped a beat, but she quickly recovered, her eyes narrowing and a sarcastic smile curving her lips. "I'm in a good mood today and would like to spar with you. What? Is Miss Mu afraid?"
Mu Chenshuang frowned and stared at the woman in front of her. According to her memory, she was the daughter of Princess Jinhua, a famously spoiled young lady in the capital. She was a disciple of Xu Changping, the top martial arts master in the palace, so her martial arts skills were naturally extraordinary.
"In that case, I will not be responsible for you if you get hurt."
Provoked by these words, Xue Jiajia gripped the whip with all her might, saying, "Let's see if you have the ability."
The words were spoken.
He forcefully pulled the whip back.
Having lost her internal energy, Mu Chenshuang could not resist Xue Jiajia, who had exhausted her internal energy. She immediately let go, quickly moved away, and picked up the stick that was placed to the side.
When Xue Jiajia lashed out with her whip again, her wrist was suddenly struck by something, instantly losing its strength. The whip in her hand was also entangled by Mu Chenshuang's stick. With a forceful movement, Mu Chenshuang sent the whip flying directly from her hand.
Before she could even react...
A gust of wind swept past her ears, a strand of hair was cut off from her earlobe, and the whip sheath was deeply embedded in the tree trunk behind her.
That moment.
Xue Jiajia felt only fear and dread; just now, the whip almost pierced her eye.
She froze on the spot, her face pale, still unable to recover.
"Sister, what are you doing?" Mu Yazhi's tense voice came from behind. She had seen the scene clearly just now. If there had been any mistake, Xue Jiajia would have been splattered with blood on the spot.
That moment.
She wished the whip sheath would pierce Xue Jiajia's eyes directly.
Even if she didn't, she already had a plan in mind. She was extremely pleased with herself, but on the surface, she still walked anxiously to Xue Jiajia and asked with concern, "Jiajia, are you alright?"
