Mu Sheng's entire face turned pale as paper almost instantly.
In her cloudy and decadent eyes, she reflected the woman walking towards her step by step.
The darkness of the Martial Arts Temple's prison could not cover up the beauty of her features.
Mu Sheng was in utter disbelief. Even if she was beaten to death, she would not have thought that the master of the Martial Arts Temple would be Ye Chuyue, whom she hated so much that she cursed her every day!
Mu Sheng moved his body back, but his back was already pressed against the wall, reaching the point of no return.
"Palace Master, the criminal Mu Sheng is right here."
Ye Juechen said respectfully.
"Um."
Chu Yue looked at the embarrassed and miserable Mu Sheng with cold eyes from across the prison cell.
I still remember the majesty of Mu Sheng in front of the Wu Palace on Chang'an Avenue, which was completely different from the prisoners today.
"Open the cell door." Chu Yue said calmly.
Ye Juechen frowned: "Palace Master, the prison is too unlucky and dirty. This person is probably crazy and extreme, and is afraid of dirtying the palace master's clothes."
"It doesn't matter."
Chu Yue's eyes fell on Mu Sheng, as cold as tempered ice.
Seeing this, Ye Juechen had no choice but to respectfully open the cell door, bring a jade chair and place it inside the cell.
And he was always paying attention to Mu Sheng's movements, for fear that Mu Sheng would do something disrespectful to the palace master.
"Wait for me outside."
Chu Yue smiled slightly: "Although this person is a criminal, she was also my grandfather's adopted daughter and the daughter of the Mu family. I am talking to her now as the leader of the Mu family, so there is no need to worry."
Ye Juechen hesitated to speak, hesitated again and again, and decided to go out, leaving Chu Yue with a sufficiently quiet and private environment.
As the adopted son of the Martial Ancestor, although he sometimes lacks brains, if he thinks about it carefully, he knows that Chu Yue will never come to see Mu Sheng for no reason.
Mu Sheng's face distorted after hearing the words "Chief of the Mu Mansion", and his eyes widened with arcs of hatred and unwillingness.
She was like a ghost from the underworld, glaring angrily at the beautiful girl in front of her.
He even hates it so much that he wants to drink blood and eat flesh!
For so many years in Mu Mansion, she had worked conscientiously and worked hard, but she had never been greeted by the smiling faces of her father, brothers and others.
How come Ye Chuyue has only been to Mu Mansion in Beizhou for such a short period of time and has already become the leader of Mu Mansion with infinite glory!!!
"Priest Mu, I miss you so much after seeing you in the north."
Chu Yue sat elegantly on the jade chair, slowly crossed her legs, lazily played with a strand of black hair hanging in front of her shoulders, and looked at Mu Sheng with a half-smile.
It's like meeting old friends again after a long separation.
But every word she said made Mu Sheng scared to the core.
Mu Sheng prides himself on being the most ruthless person, but he has never been so afraid of a person that he has nightmares every night like now.
"Are you afraid of me?"
The corners of Chu Yue's lips raised a nice curve, her brows raised slightly, and she spoke like a nagging person: "You are the aloof Miss Mu Mansion, the Shenxuan Priest who looks down on others, how can you be afraid of me?"
Mu Sheng was confused. She didn't know what kind of medicine Ye Chuyue was selling when she suddenly came here. Could it be that she became the master of the Martial Arts Temple and the clan leader of the Mu Mansion just to show off?
"Priest of worship."
Chu Yue sighed: "I once really hated you and hated you for murdering my mother, but now, I feel that there is no one more pitiful than you in this world."
"You were originally a daughter of the Song family, but you became the pampered daughter of the Mu family."
"But you didn't know the truth when you were young. You thought you were born with golden branches and jade leaves, the pure apple of the Mu family's eyes."
"Until one day, a person appears. This person tells you that he is not the daughter of the Mu family, but a child of the Song family."
"From now on, you can no longer be carefree. In order to maintain your position, you are used to enjoying wealth and glory, and you don't want to return to the Song family."
"So, you have become this person's puppet. You have no opinion of your own. You can only live in this world cautiously and on thin ice."
Chu Yue spoke as if she were peeling off silk from a cocoon, her tone was smooth and without fluctuations, as if she was telling a long-lasting story.
But when Mu Sheng heard this, he suddenly collapsed.
The hatred, anger, unwillingness and fear in her eyes seemed to disappear in an instant, leaving only all kinds of pain.
It is indeed as Ye Chuyue said.
The appearance of a person broke the peace of her life.
Before that, she had a happy time in Mu Mansion.
"That person's name is Xu Huangyan, right?"
Chu Yue smiled slightly: "To be more precise, his current name is Xu Huangyan. He used to be just a guard of Mu Mansion."
Mu Sheng's eyes tightened, and the shock was like electric current flowing through his limbs. He looked at Ye Chuyue in astonishment as he told the truth about that year.
Why did Ye Chuyue know about this old incident?
Seeing Mu Sheng's expression, Chu Yue knew that she had guessed correctly and continued:
"Xu Huangyan, although he is just a guard of Mu Mansion, he is an ambitious man."
"He not only protects his mother in Mu Mansion, but also acts as Red Eagle Lord's man."
"Xu Huangyan said that he loves my mother, but he knows that he is just a little guard, so how can he marry the daughter of the Mu family."
"Therefore, he plans and plans."
"My mother ran away from home because Xu Huangyan and Xu Lei, the lord of Fengwu City, discovered the Shennong Scroll."
"Then a crisis arose, and I never returned to Mu Mansion again."
"And when my mother and Emperor Ye Tian were in love, Xu Huangyan found you, hoping that you would attract Emperor Ye's attention and destroy their relationship."
"You also love Ye Tiandi deeply, and you are willing to do this. Perhaps, back then, you had a romantic relationship caused by design. You thought it was Ye Tiandi, but in fact, now you know that it is not him, and Ye Xun'er is not his.
child."
"After Yunhuang died, everyone thought Yunhuang was dead, so Xu Huangyan took her to Chang'an."
"Even if my mother loses her memory, not only will she not be with him, she will also want to get married to someone else."
"Xu Huangyan had no choice but to find you again and wanted to use your life experience to threaten you."
"But he didn't expect that today is different from the past. He is already in such a state of decline. How can he threaten you who is growing in power and is willing to become Red Eagle Lord's pawn."
"So, you didn't help him win back his mother. You slowly waited for the opportunity, found an opportunity, and vented all the pain and anger that you feel as a daughter of the Song family on my mother."
"You broke her bones and watched her die. You could have killed me too, but you wanted to keep me here."
"Because you want to see the Mu family's bloodline live in the vassal kingdoms and suffer ruin, just like your daughter of the Song family who received glory in the Mu family."
"But you didn't expect that Xu Huangyan saved my mother."
"He will later stay in Shenxuan and become Mr. Xu Ge, probably because of your gift. If he doesn't voluntarily stay under your nose, he won't be able to survive."
