Enchantress Amongst Alchemists: Ghost King's Wife
chapter-171

Mu Qing looked curiously at the couple. Could it be that he had guessed wrongly? They weren’t here as a payback for Mu Ru Yue beating up the young mistress of the Xiao family?

“My daughter?” Madam Sheng Yue lifted her brows. “I also don’t know what unfilial daughter you are talking about…”

Mu Qing only knew they were from the Xiao family. After hearing Madam Sheng Yue’s words, he immediately guessed her identity. He couldn’t help but be astonished and his eyes widened as he clarified, “You… you are Madam Sheng Yue from the Xiao family of Sheng Domain?”

Mu Qing still had some understanding of Sheng Domain, even though he wasn’t from there.

This Madam Sheng Yue undeniably held the most prestigious status in Sheng Domain. Her power to rally supporters was simply unparalleled. For the sacred spirit spring, who wouldn’t move to obey her orders?

“You think someone would be daring enough to impersonate me?” Madam Sheng Yue’s expression gradually darkened. “Immediately clarify what you said earlier!”

Mu Qing was so scared that he trembled. He didn’t dare to lie and told her what had happened on that day.

“Not long ago, a lady from the Xiao family came to the Kingdom of Zi Yue, saying that she was your honorable daughter. She came for a scenic tour and for some reasons took a fancy to the Ghost King Ye Wu Chen of the Kingdom of Zi Yue. She challenged my unfilial daughter Mu Ru Yue for Ye Wu Chen, and became severely wounded by that damnable Mu Ru Yue.

“Madam Sheng Yue, Mu Ru Yue is no longer a daughter of my Mu family. You can do whatever you want to her. I won’t say a word even if you kill her. However, I hope Madam would be merciful and let my Mu family’s innocent people off. They are different from that bitch Mu Ru Yue as they wouldn’t do such stupid acts.”

Madam Sheng Yue became enraged on hearing Mu Qing calling Mu Ru Yue a bitch and saying she was stupid.

But she had gotten the gist of what had happened from Mu Qing’s words…

It was no wonder why Xiao Min had been carried back with only half her life two months ago. Moreover, that old man had dared to lie to her. He had just said that his granddaughter had fancied a man but was hindered by another girl. Not only had she scrapped his granddaughter’s cultivation, she had also said she would annihilate the entire Xiao family.

Didn’t that old man know his own personality? It was obviously Xiao Min’s fault for being wounded. Could the forbidden technique of the Xiao family be used so casually? It was already a blessing she was still alive.

He wanted the Xiao family to avenge him? He was simply dreaming!

Why should she clean up Xiao Min’s mess? That arrogant and despotic girl probably wanted to snatch someone else’s man and got taught a lesson instead.

At that time, she had been unhappy. If it weren’t for the fact that she was an elder, she would have already mercilessly taught Xiao Min a lesson in order to let her know the immensity of heaven and earth.

Who knew that the man Xiao Min wanted to snatch was her precious daughter’s man?”

If she had known about this, she would have personally dealt with Xiao Min at the Xiao family.

When Mu Qing saw that Madam Sheng Yue was greatly shocked, he thought Madam Sheng Yue was angered due to Mu Ru Yue beating Xiao Min. He inwardly scolded Mu Ru Yue in his heart.

That girl only knew how to stir up trouble from morning to night!

“Madam Sheng Yue, don’t worry. I will definitely take revenge and wipe out the grudge for your daughter. I will dispatch people to call that bitch Mu Ru Yue here for Madam to punish. If Madam doesn’t want to dirty your hands, I can also arrange for someone to settle her on behalf of Madam. This time, I, Mu Qing, will definitely place righteousness before family. Someone—”

A jade hand viciously slapped his face before he could finish his order.
