Enchantress Amongst Alchemists: Ghost King's Wife
chapter-862

Then, the crowd saw that a flash of silver quickly penetrated someone’s chest. As a man, Xiao Bai naturally didn’t want to be seen as weak. He used dragon’s breath to instantly combust a person’s body…

Mu Ru Yue looked up and said with a smile, “Let’s head inside for a chat.”

Wei Zi Fang suppressed his curiosity and nodded. He turned to the slightly stunned Wei Yue, “Grandfather, this is Lady Mu, I met her in the competition. She has saved my life before so she can be trusted!”

Wei Yue curiously looked at Mu Ru Yue, but quickly withdrew his gaze. “Lady, please come in. Let’s have a chat in the study room!”

They didn’t look back at the crowd of people begging for their lives to be spared behind them…

The interior of the study room was unadorned but tranquil.

Wei Yue made people prepare seats for Mu Ru Yue and Ye Wu Chen before sitting down with Wei Zi Fang and Dou Yi Jun. With a hint of curiosity in his eyes, he asked, “Lady, may I know why you have come to my Wei family?”

Mu Ru Yue lowered her gaze slightly. With a slight smile, she replied, “I don’t know if you can still remember the eldest young mistress of the Dou family that went missing, Dou Yu!”

Wei Yue sucked in a deep breath as he stared at Mu Ru Yue.

“What did you say?” out of haste Dou Yi Jun wanted to grab onto Mu Ru Yue’s shoulder, but before he could touch her a pair of hands extended from Mu Ru Yue’s side, pulling Mu Ru Yue into their embrace.

Dou Yi Jun was stunned for a moment. A pair of sinister cold purple eyes met his gaze when Dou Yi Jun looked up, warning him to watch his actions…

“I’m sorry. I was just too stirred up because I want to know where my younger sister is.” Embarrassed, Dou Yi asked, “May I know if you happen to know the current location of my younger sister?”

Mu Ru Yue was smiling but her expression was exceptionally serious as she replied, “She is my Mother!”

A bolt of lightning seemed to have struck heavily on their hearts. Wei Yue raised his head in astonishment, looking at Mu Ru Yue’s indifferent expression.

“Are… are you speaking the truth?”

‘Is my pitiful niece really still existing in the world?’

“This is the proof!”

Mu Ru Yue raised her hand, passing a yellowed white cloth to Wei Yue. That piece of cloth was covered in words, which were written in blood…

“Grandmother’s maidservant Liu Lu (willow green) killed Grandmother many years ago. She then used a disguising technique to take on Grandmother’s appearance, becoming her. On the other hand, my Mother had been given to a person. That person is currently my Mother’s Master. This piece of cloth is the evidence left behind from that year!”

Boom!

A bolt of lightning struck Dou Yi Jun’s heart, making him stumble a little. His handsome face momentarily turned gravely pale, void of any colour.

‘I just can’t believe that my Mother is dead. What’s more, the Mother whom I’ve been with for so many years is actually my Mother’s killer. ’

“No! This is certainly impossible!”

Dou Yi Jun closed his eyes in sorrow.

‘Mother has been cold to me for so many years. I no longer feel any mother-son connection to her. But I still can’t accept this matter.

‘More importantly, I can’t accept the truth that my Mother is dead!’

“Yi Jun, what she said is the truth!” Wei Yue’s fingers trembled. With tears of sorrow flowing from his eyes, he revealed the truth, “Your maternal Grandfather was actually secretly poisoned by her subordinate when he discovered that she wasn’t your genuine mother. He didn’t die from being angered to death! I was the only person he told. For the sake of everyone’s safety, I have never told this matter to anyone for all these years!”

When Wei Yue saw the blood-written words on the white cloth, his heart throbbed with intense pain.
