Enchantress Amongst Alchemists: Ghost King's Wife
chapter-323

“Qing Er!” Mu Ru Yue glanced at Yao Yun Qing. She frowned slightly, but didn’t say anything further.

She didn’t see any adoration in the youth’s eyes. It was just deep-seated reliance. It was the type of feeling that appeared between a son to his mother.

“Let’s go. Zi Qian Jing, if you want to come then, just follow us.”

Zi Qian Jing gave a lazy smile. He continued to stare dazedly at the face of the young girl with an age similar to his own.

“Can you call me Jing Er?”

Mu Ru Yue wanted to rebuke him, but her heart softened when she saw his bright eyes. “Jing Er, come with me.”

Zi Qian Jing smiled with satisfaction. ‘It will be great if I get to see her like this even a thousand years later…’

When Zang Qing Xue saw the youth’s gaze lock onto Mu Ru Yue, she stomped her feet in slight frustration. At this time, her heart appeared to have something called jealousy.

She was indeed really jealous of Mu Ru Yue.

That silver-robed youth was too handsome. His aura was noble and languid, his perfection able to make people exclaim in wonder. Yet, this youth’s eyes could only hold one person.

How could it not make people jealous?

“Mu Ru Yue, you are already wedded and are still attracting bees and butterflies to yourself. If your man knows about this, will he dump you?” Zang Qing Xue smiled coldly.

That son-in-law of the Xiao family was the most handsome man she had ever seen in her life. It was like looking at a divine man. There would probably only be one who was as powerful and charming as an Asura like he.

Zang Qing Xue really didn’t have any thoughts on him as that man already had a wife and their statuses were too different. She didn’t want to be a concubine and was thus much less willing to seduce a wedded man.

Currently, this youth, Zi Qian Jing, was incredibly handsome and outstanding. Comparing him with the son-in-law of the Xiao family wasn’t too much of a difference in apperance. He was also much more perfect than Xiao Feng. If she were to marry this youth, she would have no regrets in her life.

As for Mu Ru Yue… she had a husband already so she wasn’t worthy to be her match. If Zi Qian Jing knew she was seducing him even though she was already wedded, he would disdain that woman’s personality.

On the other hand, even though she herself didn’t have a devastating appearance nor outstanding talent, didn’t men usually love a gentle and pure woman that was good at understanding people? Moreover, she was now the young mistress of the Zang family…

Zang Qing Xue gradually withdrew her thoughts as she looked at the departing group, a flicker of light dwelling in her eyes.

If one wanted to be exact, the cultivation room was closer to a chamber. The energy within this chamber was much more dense than the energy outside. Cultivating in this room would be half the effort for twice the effect. No furniture lay in this room except for a bed to sleep in.

It was night, a period as tranquil as water.

Mu Ru Yue sat silently on the bed. Energy was gradually entering her body. Suddenly, an aura charged over. She abruptly opened her eyes and struck out two fingers like a gale toward the oncomer.

She, however, stopped before her fingers reached the other person’s eyes.

Beneath the light of the moon, the youth revealed a faint smile. His silver robe fluttered gently in the night breeze that came in through the door. The youth stood upright against the night wind. His lean figure was like an exiled immortal stood framed against the moonlight. Nothing could be more beautiful.

The youth’s face made Mu Ru Yue absent-minded. An unknown, familiar feeling rose in her heart and couldn’t be suppressed…
