'Bang-'


The sound of Mu Yunjin slamming the door behind her was heard.


Qin Tai Fei collapsed on the bed, in a daze she looked towards the ceiling, as tears flowed out.


"It's a sin ah..."


Then, Qin Tai Fei supported her ailing body up, wore her shoes, and slowly stepped into the antique shelves on the side. In a white jade porcelain bottle, she took out an old yellowish paper. She spread out the paper and an impressive and powerful calligraphy writing came into view--


"Mu family's Yunjin, is not Mu family's flesh and blood, can be used."


(TL: Ouch! so that is the real reason she was used. At least she was not able to tell that to Yunjin, I think that is more painful although pain is pain and it won't hurt less either way.)


......


Mu Yunjin had a cold face when she went out of the Plum Garden, her whole body emits a cold air, her set of eyes concealed a black whirlpool, causing one to shiver.


Zi Xiang had never seen Mu Yunjin show this kind look, she can only look from the sidelines and did not dare to speak.


Mu Yunjin pursed her lips, her unmatched face coldly hardened, in her mind appeared all that happened when she first came here in this time period.


As it turned out, the person she thought was genuinely nice to her, treated her nothing more than a p.a.w.n.


Heh...


It's truly ridiculous.


Coming out of the Palace Gate, Mu Yunjin once again met with Rong w.a.n.gfei.


When Rong w.a.n.gfei saw Mu Yunjin's steady face, she covered her mouth to smile.


"Oh, little niece-in-law did you suffer a grievance?"


Mu Yunjin acted as if she had not heard, brushing her sleeves, she stepped into the Fu's carriage.


Rong w.a.n.gfei looked at this scene and gave a long sigh.


"Qin Tai Fei that old woman will not live long, maybe she already told that matter to Mu Yunjin ..."


In the carriage, Mu Yunjin drooped down her eyes, her heart seems to have difficulty in calming down. She looked outside and saw the time is still early. Mu Yunjin inwardly made a decision.


Since the beginning was wrong in the first place, it has to end before it's too late.


(TL: I think we all agree that it is already too late for you and your heart.)


Back to the Fu, Mu Yunjin came back to her room to pack a few clothes, prepared some silver then went out.


"Xiaojie, where are you going?"


Zi Xiang's face looked surprised as she looked at Mu Yunjin.


Mu Yunjin pinched Zi Xiang's face and pulled out a smile.


"I want to go to River Moon City to find Chu Li, you should stay in the Fu and wait for me to come back."


"En."


Mu Yunjin went to the Fu's stable and pulled along the Red wind horse from that day, and went out of the backdoor riding all the way to the direction of the River Moon City......


Mu Yunjin rushed to River Moon City and arrived before nightfall. Following her memory, she walked through the alley and arrived in the front door of Chu Li's private house.


At this time, the house's door is tightly closed, and the inner room is not lit with any candlesticks.


"Could it be that he isn't here?"


Mu Yunjin slightly frowned, pursed her lips and changed direction, going to where Chu Li took her before, to the direction of the mountain.


By the time Mu Yunjin arrived at the foot of the mountain, the sky is completely dark.


Mu Yunjin looked at the sky outside the outskirts of the suburbs, it is almost pitch-black, she indescribably thought of Chu Li's bird blindness. Previously he said that only her and Ding Xian knows of this matter, then what about Qin Muyue?


Thinking about it, Mu Yunjin took a breath, walked a few steps, remembering that this mountain is under Chu Li's seal. At this time Mu Yunjin is standing at the entrance, she gently reached forward to touch.


Originally, she thought that there will be a barrier blocking the outside, but she only felt a stream of flowing Qi, Mu Yunjin is surprised, and walked a few steps.


Seeing that she easily pa.s.sing through that barrier, Mu Yunjin's heart is delighted, she walked halfway into the mountain and walked into the cave.


Mu Yunjin was especially careful during her journey, deliberately using light steps, quietly moving forward, inexplicably her heart flashed a hint of guilt.


Then thought, she clearly came to find Chu Li to speak of matters, why does she have to be so sneaky.


She sighed helplessly.


At night, the mountain has a cold breeze, in the summer, the mountains are covered with the sound of cicadas, Mu Yunjin is in the dark, she brushed the weeds on the cave door, and saw at this time the cave faintly has candlelight.


As she was about to enter, there was a peal of startled shout that sounded--


"Li gege, look, the black lotus bloomed!"


Hearing Qin Muyue's voice, Mu Yunjin's heart sank, her footsteps stayed in place, and then she retreated a few steps, standing at the mouth of the cave, listening to the movements inside.


"Your Highness, the Black Lotus opened early, we can try it, if successful, we can crack the formation and the rescue of Rong Fei Niangniang is within reach."


Ding Xian on the side excitedly spoke.


Mu Yunjin slightly furrowed her eyebrows, she carefully took in Ding Xian's words, Chu Li prepared these Black Lotus for three years to be used in saving Rong Fei?


"Take the Blood."


Chu Li's indifferent voice came from inside the cave.


"Wait a minute."


Qin Muyue's voice came through.


Immediately afterward, Qin Muyue paused before continuing.


"Li gege, if my blood reacts to the Black Lotus, and is able to break the imprisonment of Rong Fei, then what can you give me?"


The cave turned silent.


Mu Yunjin leaning on the mountain rocks outside heard Qin Muyue's question. She tightly pursed her lips and quietly waited for Chu Li's answer.


"Li gege? Why aren't you talking? Do you remember your promise, you will grant me a wish?"


"En."


Qin Muyue smiled. "Then now, I will come to you to make a wish."


"I want ..."


Not waiting for Qin Muyue to finish, Chu Li's voice interrupted.


"Test your blood first."


(TL: Nice one Chu Li, no deal until everything is clear. I wonder how you can escape that dratted promise of yours. As of now, Chu Li seems to be the type that won't be forced if he does not want to do it, he might create a loophole if Qin Muyue demanded the impossible.)


......


At this time, Mu Yunjin is sitting crossed legged outside the cave, her mind is completely inside the cave. Her mind has countless of things and at the moment it is densely packed.


(TL: I wonder, are the shadow guards still doing their job of shadowing Yunjin? Why is it that they are not aware nor report to Chu Li the whereabouts of their w.a.n.gfei. I hope it is because she has absolute trust in Mu Yunjin and does not bother the details, but still I don't see any hint that things are being reported to Chu Li especially the times Yunjin's life was in danger.)


Those Black Lotus, unexpectedly match the blood of Qin Muyue and it has the ability to break the formation.


Is it related to Qin Muyue's body of a Phoenix?


Mu Yunjin bit her lip, her heart inexplicably a little uncomfortable, and pulled a weed, breaking it off with her hand.


After a long time, Qin Muyue's astonished cry came from the cave.


"Why did it not work?!”


(TL: Hah! serves you right! No deal with Chu Li hahaha.)


"Indeed it is strange, Old Daoist definitely said that this Black Lotus is a mysterious thing, once it blooms and mixed with the blood of the Phoenix daughter, it can easily break the air release formation. Why is Qin Xiaojie's blood, unable to blend with the Black Lotus?"


Ding Xian spoke what he thought.


"Li gege, could it be that this Old Daoist is lying to you? This black Lotus is just a normal lotus flower after all?"


(TL: Nope, he is not lying, you are just not special after all. Yunjin is a Phoenix Body too, she literally has the Phoenix Pavilion Mark within her.)


Qin Muyue asked in dismay.


Mu Yunjin heard it, and having knowledge of hearing these, she should not stay in this place, so with a tiptoe, she used Qinggong, to rapidly go back to the foot of the mountain.


At this time, inside the cave Chu Li, heard the strange sounds outside, his eyebrow furrowed and in a flash went out of the cave.


"Li gege ..."


"Your highness ..."


Chu Li had just gone out of the cave, and looked at the vast darkness outside, he stopped his footsteps and swept a look behind him towards Qin Muyue.


"You go back first."


"Li gege ..."


Qin Muyue looked at Chu Li, she wants to say something but hesitated then she stopped talking and nodded, and went down the foot of the mountain alone.


Mountain cave entrance, Ding Xian looked at Chu Li.


"Your Highness, the Phoenix Blood is unable to integrate with the Black Lotus, therefore the formation cannot be broken, then, what should we do next?"


"Do we need to find the Old Daoist?"


Ding Xian asked.


Chu Li faintly shook her head, his body emits cold air, as he looked at the bright moon on the night sky.


"Again, we wait.."


......


Mu Yunjin came to the foot of the mountain, perceiving behind her someone is coming to her own direction, so she turned and hid in a rock.


Moments later, she saw Qin Muyue using Qinggong coming out of the mountain alone.


Qin Muyue stood there and turned her head back, she seems to be a little annoyed, and slightly stamped her foot and clenched her fist, before walking away.


Seeing Qin Muyue had left, Mu Yunjin again looked at the entrance, after looking for a moment, she did not see Chu Li and Ding Xian's figure.


Although the heart is a bit suspicious, Mu Yunjin had better leave away from the mountain as soon as possible and went toward the direction of the market.


Arriving in the street covered with lanterns, there were pedestrians in the street who were strolling around during the evening and did not appear desolate.


Mu Yunjin found an inn, walking to the front desk before she can open her mouth, behind her came two voices.


"Hey, on the third floor there is a Qin guniang, asking for a late supper, you quickly to prepare."


"All right, All right, will immediately prepare."


Hearing the words Qin guniang, Mu Yunjin frowned, after getting a room she then went upstairs.


Qin guniang, Qin Muyue?


She doesn't live in Chu Li's house?


Mu Yunjin thought of these and instantly felt a little speechless, these days she doesn't know if she'll start ventilating, in this world, there are many that are surnamed Qin, she cannot distinguish based on hearsay.


Coming to the third floor, Mu Yunjin went to her room, through a closed door, she heard a familiar voice-


"Truly infuriating, I managed with great difficulty to find a method to let the Black Lotus open ahead of time and the result is unexpected: That my blood cannot fuse with it."


Hearing this voice, Mu Yunjin's footsteps stopped, it's really Qin Muyue?


Mu Yunjin again looked at her door number plate, it turns out that Qin Muyue is just next door.


After Qin Muyue's words, an extremely low voice sounded again.


"You, shifting and hastening the blooming of the Black Lotus, and having your blood unable to fuse, Chu Li might think that it is because the Black Lotus bloomed early that is why it affected the fusion. There will be no other meaning."


"En, that's the best ..."


Mu Yunjin at her room, quietly leaned against the door, this day a lot of things has happened, almost everything is difficult to digest.


Qin Muyue's words just now is a confirmation of what exactly ...


Mu Yunjin's head ached a little, and threw the burden aside, her whole body laid laboriously on the bed, she does not want to move.


This one, each and every secret she knows, involved many people and things, if she can calculate over, just for today's account, it is still better they separate so she can live a free and unfettered life.


(TL: Agreed! And let Chu Li break a sweat running after you.)


......


The next day, Mu Yunjin, at Si Geng (between 1:00 - 3:00 am) got up early, freshened up a bit, and quietly went downstairs.


After the completion of account, Mu Yunjin went from the backyard and led the Red Wind horse, all the way to Chu Li's house.


A moment later, Mu Yunjin is standing in front of the house, just as she wants to use Qinggong to fly into the yard, there was an invisible barrier that blocked her, for a moment she failed to react, she fell to the ground.


"Aiyo--"


Mu Yunjin, who fell to the ground, howled.


"Who's there?!"


The door of the house was opened by a gust of wind, and then a dark shadow flew out, his palm is directed straight to Mu Yunjin.


Mu Yunjin saw the fast approaching palm, immediately rolled to avoid being hit head-on by the palm strike and shouted:


"Ding Xian, it's me!"
