Enchantress Amongst Alchemists: Ghost King's Wife
chapter-1217-30041322

Perhaps the woman realised something wasn’t right with Mu Ru Yue. She turned her head to look at her and with a concerned gaze, she asked, “What’s wrong?”

Mu Ru Yue gradually came back to her senses. She shook her head and looked at the woman with an absent-minded gaze.

“May I know the identity of that man?”

The woman was a little stunned but she laughed after. “From everyone’s point of view, he is a devil. But in my heart, he is a hero! He is a hero that is willing to do anything to rescue his wife and even massacred several people! Perhaps it can be described as the so-called being enraged due to love. Furthermore, everyone knows his name. That man is the peerless expert a thousand years ago—— Wu Wang!”

Mu Ru Yue’s heart shuddered.

‘So he and the dean had such a relationship…’

But Mu Ru Yue’s heart was filled with admiration toward the woman before her.

‘No matter if her beloved man has married another woman, she still chose to silently invest in their relationship and protect him from a distance. When everyone was against him, only she treated him as a hero.

‘How I not be impressed by such a devoted woman?

Mu Ru Yue wasn’t sure if she should tell her of her identity at that instant…

“Dean, d-do you regret after investing so much effort on him?”

“Regret?” The woman shook her head smiling as she explained, “When you love someone, you won’t regret no matter how much effort you have put in the relationship. It is my own choice for loving him! Even if I am lonely my entire life due to that, I similarly don’t regret it.

“Little fella, you will meet your beloved man one day. You will then understand what I am feeling right now. I’ve already sought him for a thousand years. I definitely won’t give up until I find him…”

Mu Ru Yue had mixed feelings when she looked at the smiling woman before her at a loss for words…

‘I’m lucky my beloved man loves me…’

“Dean…”

Just when Mu Ru Yue wanted to say something, she was interrupted by the woman’s gentle voice.

“The reason why I say so much to you is that you are just like him no matter if it is your indifferent personality or your grandeur. Since we can click with each other so well, don’t call me by my title as the dean. If you don’t mind, call me Aunt Yu (speech) instead.”

Lin Ruo Yu (forest like speech) giggled and slowly said that with a gentle voice.

It was unknown to Mu Ru Yue why the woman’s word gave her a cordial feeling.

She called out with a gentle smile, “Aunt Yu.”

Lin Ruo Yu’s gaze became increasingly gentle. With a smile, she said, “I don’t have a daughter nor a disciple. I’ve finally come across you little fella after so many years. You must come and accompany me in the future. I am generally recuperating here for now.”

“Alright.”

Mu Ru Yue smiled gently.

‘No matter if it was the relationship between Lin Ruo Yu and Wu Wang or she being the dean of the academy, I will always come and visit her…’

“That’s right.”

Perhaps Lin Ruo Yu thought of something as her gaze focused momentarily. She asked with a frown, “Lu Zhen told me something went wrong with the magic array during your exam, leading in you being trapped within it for a month. You had to defeat all the demon beasts before leaving the magic array.”

Mu Ru Yue nodded slightly and replied, “It was the case…”

“How can something suddenly went wrong with the magic array?”

Lin Ruo Yu sniggered. With a sharp glow that flashed past her eyes, she commented, “That old man Tian Zhen is too useless. I must teach him a lesson next time! Little girl, don’t worry. Aunt Yu will seek justice for you regarding this matter!”
