Enchantress Amongst Alchemists Ghost King's Wife

Chapter 865 -Xiao Yue and Xiao Bai's Disappearance Part 2

"Oh?"

Mu Ru Yue's eyebrow raised.

'It is natural for her as a Spiritual Master to be sought by people.'

"Elder Wen Wu of the Martial Sect fancied her power so he used every means possible to plead her to enter the sect. An Xi agreed in the end. She told me before she left that she wanted to enter deep into the Martial Sect in order to obtain the power of the Martial Sect and give it to you."

"…"

Mu Ru Yue rubbed her nose speechlessly as she commented, "But I'm not in the slightest interested in the Martial Sect."

Shu Ning seemed to have already guessed her response as she smiled and replied, "I told her that as well. But An Xi said that you are her Master but also her friend, and that if it wasn't for you, she wouldn't be able to make up her mind to battle. Hence, she planned to be your shield, giving you the Martial Sext as your Cannon fodder."

Actually, Mu Ru Yue indeed had an ulterior motive in helping An Xi at the start.

'An Xi will definitely be a significant existent in the future as a rare Spiritual Master. If she is under me at that time, I will have a much stable footing in the Eastern Island…

'It is for this purpose that I've taken in Qiancheng Yan as well.

'I didn't expect that my help has made An Xi commit to such a great decision…'

"Oh right, Yue Er, why are you here for?" Glimmer danced in Shu Ning's eyes as she asked with an elegant smile.

"I'm here for my uncle."

"Your uncle?" Shu Ning was stunned.

'I've not heard Mu Ru Yue mentioned about her uncle after interacting with for such a long time.'

"My uncle is Dou Yi Jun of the Dou family."

Swish!

Shu Ning's expression changed completely after she heard what Mu Ru Yue said. She revealed, "Is your uncle really Dou Yi Jun of the Dou family from the Devil City?"

Mu Ru Yue's brow raised as she looked curiously at Shu Ning and asked, "What's the matter?"

Shu Ning replied with a serious expression, "Dou Yi Jun was ambushed by assassins recently. He is currently severely injured and in a critical condition. The head of the Dou family Dou Lin is currently sending invitations, inviting for alchemists to head forth and treat him. If you head there too late, I'm afraid…"

Mu Ru Yue clenched her fist tightly with flames of fury blazing in her eyes.

'I've already head here as quickly as I could. I didn't expect that I will still be a step too late. What happened to Xiao Yue and Xiao Bai? I've let Xiao Yue and Xiao Bai protect uncle so they certainly wouldn't leave him behind and left!

'This suggested that something has similarly happened to Xiao Yue and Xiao Bai!'

Mu Ru Yue hated herself greatly at this moment.

'If I didn't choose to make Xiao Yue and Xiao Bai protect uncle and chose Bai Ze instead, perhaps such a matter wouldn't have occurred…'

Mu Ru Yue shifted her gaze toward Ye Wu Chen. With sinister, cold killing intent in her eyes, she said, "Wu Chen, let's go!"

'I will make everyone that dares to hurt uncle and the two beasts die without a burial!'

✶

An elder was sitting beside a bed while tightly holding onto the hand of the man that was currently lying in bed in the Dou family. "Jun Er, don't worry. Father will definitely get someone to treat you!"

Dou Yi Jun opened his eyes weakly. His gaze shifted to Liu Lu who was by Dou Lin's side. He parted his lips but couldn't voice out a single word.

"Head," Liu Lu wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes as she said, choked with her emotion, "It seems that Jun Er… will not be able to make it!"

"No!" Dou Lin's eyes were bloodshot red as he said with gritted teeth, "I am willing to pay any price in order to maintain my Dou family's sole bloodline!"

Liu Lu's heart jolted with a trace of coldness that flashed past her eyes. But she didn't express it on her face as she continued to look mournfully at the middle-aged man that was on the bed…

'Die!

'Once he dies, I will quickly be able to make Kui Er the successor! Moreover, he should thank me for sending him to hell, reuniting with his mother…'
