Enchantress Amongst Alchemists: Ghost King's Wife
chapter-544

Nevertheless, this was the realmless!

She had just come here and didn’t know anyone. Why would this youth get close to her on purpose? Hence, she didn’t suspect that he was just pretending.

“What is your name?”

Mu Ru Yue turned around to look at the youth. The iciness in her eyes was gradually melting.

The youth pursed his lips and replied timidly, “Mo Xi.”

‘Mo Xi?’

Mu Ru Yue frowned. He shouldn’t be a person from the four large family clans.

“There are several bad guys out there. Do you want to follow me?” Mu Ru Yue raised her gaze to look at Mo Xi and asked seriously.

The youth blinked his eyes and raised his fine and long eyelashes. The girl’s lucid and elegant figure was then reflected in his water-like black eyes.

He had seen too many humans after being tossed out of the house by his grandfather. Those humans had boundless greed in their eyes, but her eyes were as peaceful as water without a slightest trace of impurity.

“Alright, I will follow you. But you haven’t tell me your name.”

Mu Ru Yue smiled and replied, “Mu Ru Yue.”

“Mu Ru Yue? Can I call you Little Yue from now on?” The youth smiled.

That smile of his was like thousands of trees and flowers blossoming. Mu Ru Yue felt as though the initial gloomy sky had become clear for thousands of miles as warm sunlight seemed to have enveloped his candid smile.

“Alright.”

Mu Ru Yue slightly raised her eyes to shift her gaze toward Mo Xi. A trace of smile then subconsciously started to appear on her face.

She originally was just finding a way to earn money. She instead didn’t expect to pick up a submissive, handsome youth back. However, what was on her mind was the youth’s identity.

✶

“Yi Shao Chen, do you know of a Mo family in this continent?” Mu Ru Yue frowned as she looked at the man’s warm jade-like face and asked in a heavy tone.

“Mo? Why are you asking this for?” Yi SHao Chen focused his eyes slightly. His eyes that should have smiles was covered in a layer of coldness instead.

He clearly looked as though he was looking at you, but if you paid close attention, you would discover that your figure didn’t in the slightest appear in his black pupils…

Mu Ru Yue smiled slightly as she replied, “You just have to tell me if there is.”

Yi Shao Chen kept his handheld fan with his gaze increasingly turning grim. He then suddenly laughed, but his smile didn’t reach his eyes. He replied, “Can it be that the youth that you have picked up has the surname Mo?”

“That’s right.” Mu Ru Yue didn’t deny and instead admitted it openly.

“From what Ben Wang knows, this continent indeed have a family with the surname Mo. But it is clear that he isn’t from there. The Mo family isn’t a human family clan, but a beast’s family clan. Its territory has taken up the beast’s mountain range and its power is above the four large families.”

‘Beast?’

Mu Ru Yue’s brows rose. She didn’t sense any beast aura from Mo Xi’s body so he shouldn’t belong to that so called beast’s family clan…

“Other than that family?”

Yi Shao Chen remained silent for a while before shaking his head slightly and replied, “Ben Wang knows about only that Mo family. But my knowledge does not include some weaker martial practitioner families.”

“I understand.”

Mu Ru Yue didn’t say further, but she believed that Mo Xi’s identity certainly wouldn’t be that simple. With him being oblivious of the world, he wouldn’t come from those small families…

“Lady Mu, there will be a flower gazing banquet in the palace in a couple of days. I wonder if the lady will be able to accompany Ben Wang to attend that banquet?” A ray of light flickered in Yi Shao Chen’s eyes. His lips then curled up into a warm smile as he continued, “The Ouyang family will also be participating in it.”

‘Ouyang family?’

A ray of light flashed past Mu Ru Yue’s eyes as she smiled.
