Enchantress Amongst Alchemists: Ghost King's Wife
chapter-469

She raised her head to look at the black robed man charging toward her. She then gently raised the Heavenly Dragon Flame Sword. A red glow was emitted from the Flame Dragon on the sword at that moment. It suddenly left the sword and widened its jaws as it charged toward the black robed man.

“Not good!”

The black robed man’s expression finally changed.

He retreated rapidly and a long dragging imprint was left on the ground. He managed to dodge the flaming dragon made from flames.

“Damn it! Where did this girl come from?”

The black robed man wiped his cold sweat. Traces of terror slowly infiltrated his eyes after as he saw the girl brandishing the sword again. The flaming dragon obviously looked much larger as it charged toward him with its mouth wide open.

“No!”

A heart-wrenching shriek filled the horizon, but it was quickly extinguished by the boundless flames. Shock filled his eyes at his last moments.

Even Xiao Yun that year wasn’t able to kill Mystic realm experts when he was nineteen, no matter how he used his famous killing technique. He was only able to fight practitioners in the Yellow realm and not experts from the Mystic realm…

But she did it!

The black robed man chuckled bitterly. Yao Yun Qing was too lucky to be acquainted to such a talent. It would be much harder for the Lord to kill her in the future…

The gale gradually vanished, leaving a breeze that grazed Mu Ru Yue’s face and made her hair flutter in the wind.

Mu Ru Yue slowly turned around and looked at the paled man that had collapsed on the ground. With a slight frown, she commented, “It seems that eldest brother’s injuries are severe and will require quite some time to recover.”

At this instant, hurried steps were heard behind her.

“Xiao Feng! Xiao Feng!”

Yao Yun Qing walked briskly toward Xiao Feng. She crouched down as she caressed his pale-white face. Her heart clenched and boiling tear drops welled out from her eyes.

Drip!

It landed on the man’s dried lips.

“Xiao Feng, I am sorry. I had implicated you…”

As though he felt something, Xiao Feng frowned and gradually opened his eyes. When he saw Yao Yun Qing, he was slightly startled.

“Why have you returned?”

“Idiot!” Yao Yun Qing wiped the tears from her face and glared at him as she continued, “You tossed me so far away, making me spend so much time to return.”

“I am asking you again, why have you returned?”

Hearing the man yell with slight anger, Yao Yun Qing was stunned before she said in grief, “I just don’t want to implicate you. Why must you be so fierce toward me…”

The man’s finger jolted slightly, but he didn’t say anything to Yao Yun Qing and looked toward Mu Ru Yue and said, “Sister, I…”

“Eldest brother, you don’t need to say further.” Mu Ru Yue shook her head and continued, “Yun Qing is my friend and you are my eldest brother so none of you must be in danger. But what happened here?”

Mu Ru Yue looked toward Yao Yun Qing as she said that.

Yao Yun Qing bit her lips before she explained, “It is for power.”

“Power?”

“That’s right.” Yao Yun Qing nodded and explained, “I previously left the academy to head home due to the summoning from my grandfather. He had passed the writ tablet that symbolizes the head of the family to me. This made my Second Uncle displeased and thus, he dispatched assassins to kill me. If it wasn’t for Elder Zhang, I probably would have died multiple times already. Second Uncle unexpectedly dispatched an Earth realm expert this time. Elder Zhang, he…”

She said until here and couldn’t say any further as tears poured out like spring water.
