Peerless Heiress - Chapter 23
"No, no, how could that be? You must have seen wrong." Master's expression suddenly changed, as if someone had stepped on his tail. He jumped up abruptly, and the next second, his voice was already outside the door: "I'm leaving. Be careful."
I stared at the direction my master's figure disappeared in, grimacing.
snort-
You damned monster, one day I'll find out your true form. Let's see how long you can keep this up!
Far away on the road in the dark night, a sudden chill ran through him.
I was caught between laughter and tears.
Chapter 62 The Promise
Huaidu, the capital of Tianxing Kingdom, is a famous mountain city. Outside the city, lush greenery stretches as far as the eye can see, with continuous mountain ranges.
Qingyan and Moyu made their appointment to meet on Huai Mountain outside the city.
Early in the morning, Mo Yu and Lin Ye set off together, stepping through the fresh morning mist and dew, accompanied by the sounds of birdsong, to climb Huai Mountain. The mountain was steep, and it took them a long time to finally reach the summit.
"Young Master, look." Lin Ye suddenly stepped in front of him and said to Mo Yu in a deep voice.
Mo Yu looked up and saw a large group of people gathered on the mountaintop. They were all dressed in short clothes and looked quite skilled.
“These people are all skilled in martial arts.” Lin Ye’s expression turned serious.
So early in the morning, with the first rays of dawn, such a group of people suddenly appeared here, and they were gathered so tightly together, as if they were discussing or handling some important matter, and a secret one at that.
"Knights-errant use their martial arts to break the law"—these were not exactly well-liked by the court officials, as they often relied on their martial arts skills and disregarded the court's prohibitions and rules. They frequently committed illegal and disorderly acts. However, since the gangs near Huai Mountain were small and insignificant, the officials didn't bother to manage them.
However, the sudden appearance of such a large group of martial artists at this time and place immediately reminded the two court officials who had arrived early in the morning of the imminent marriage alliance between the two countries, as well as the recent rumors of gang mergers.
If someone were to use this opportunity to gather the martial arts forces near Huaicheng and deliberately try to sabotage the marriage alliance between Dawei and Tianxing, it would truly be a headache.
"Young Master?" Lin Ye looked at his master with concern.
Mo Yu's expression remained unchanged, then he suddenly smiled leisurely, snapped open his folding fan, and said calmly, "Lin Ye, it seems we're late."
His voice wasn't loud, but his tone was very calm and steady, making it especially noticeable on such a fresh and quiet mountain morning. The group of martial arts practitioners dressed in short clothes immediately raised their heads and turned to look at him.
Hearing the commotion, Qingyan peeked out from the crowd, dressed in a light green robe and waving at them with a smile: "Hey, you're here? Come on, come on, I have something good to show you!"
The crowd parted automatically, and she stood in the middle, her clear and lively smile and cheerful demeanor, her clothes blending seamlessly with the mountain colors, making her seem like an elf suddenly leaping out of a mountain stream. Mo Yu felt as if the sky before him had instantly brightened, and the dark mountains suddenly overflowed with beauty and vitality.
He strode over, smiling.
Qingyan was fiddling with a strange object, huge in size, white in color, with long, wide sides like bird wings. Below it was a huge bamboo basket, inside which was a comfortably furnished couch.
Lin Yeqing, his face pale, coldly said, "Hmph, what nonsense!"
She smiled, not angry at all, and continued with what she was doing.
After quickly tying the last few ropes, Qingyan clapped her hands, took a few steps back to admire her masterpiece, nodded, then winked at Lin Ye and smiled charmingly: "Hey, handsome, how about taking a flight with me?"
"Wh-what?" Lin Ye stammered, his face full of black lines.
Flying?!
What does 什﹏ mean?
———!!!
Chapter 63 Dare to Fly Together
Qingyan curled her lip in disdain and waved her hand: "Never mind, I wasn't planning on inviting you anyway. Even if you go up, I'll kick you down halfway."
"You!—" Lin Ye was so angry that his neck turned red, and his fists, hanging at his sides, trembled.
Qingyan ignored him and turned to his master, smiling brightly: "Young Master Moyu, Minister, what about you? Do you have the guts to fly around with me?"
Mo Yu raised an eyebrow and smiled: "Why not?"
Lin Ye's expression changed: "Young Master..."
What is this thing? It's strange, and besides, where in the world have you ever heard of someone being able to fly? Who knows what this girl is up to? Her origins are already suspicious. Perhaps this is a huge trap. As the Minister of War, the young master's safety is tied to the fate of the nation; how could he easily put himself in danger? If I had known, I shouldn't have let the young master come. He should have known that this girl was definitely not someone to be trifled with!
In that instant, countless thoughts raced through Lin Ye's mind.
Mo Yu simply looked at Qing Yan, his eyes full of smiles, without the slightest hesitation.
"Quite bold, not bad, not bad. As expected of Young Master Moyu." Qingyan smiled and waved her hand, and several of her subordinates stepped forward, lifted the strange giant bird, and placed it on the edge of the cliff.
Then I saw her climb in in a very ungraceful posture.
"Come in, we're leaving."
"Young Master!" Lin Ye was shocked, but he couldn't stop his master's actions. He watched helplessly as Mo Yu gave him a reassuring smile and then stepped inside.
The girl who started the incident crossed her arms, raised her chin, and looked at him with a mocking and provocative expression.
Lin Ye was trembling with anger, but he didn't say another word. He pursed his lips, followed closely behind his master, and strode in resolutely, squeezing himself between Young Master Mo Yu and her.
Once you've made your choice, even death is nothing to fear.
However, even in death, the young master must come after him.
This is--
