She'd rather die than go back?
Han Yunxi was just thinking about the familiar voice when Long Fei Ye spoke up, "It's her again!"
Yes, it's her again, Mu Ling 'er.
Long Fei Ye's tone made it clear that he didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but Han Yunxi was a bit worried about this girl.
Moreover, Mu Ling 'er was a genius pharmacist, and Pill Fiend Pharmacy needed her.
She smiled and said, "Long Fei Ye, why don't you climb the wall and take a look?"
Climb the wall …
When had he, Long Fei Ye, ever climbed a wall?
With Han Yunxi in his arms, he silently flew up to a tree in the neighboring courtyard. From where he stood, he could see everything clearly.
Han Yunxi suddenly felt that it would be great if she had a personal bodyguard like Long Fei Ye!
Actually, she already had one, didn't she?
The person in the courtyard was indeed Mu Ling 'er. At this moment, she was holding a dagger to her neck. The young man standing in front of her was dressed in bright clothes and had the appearance of a hedonistic son of a wealthy family. Behind him were a dozen or so sword-wielding bodyguards. His aura was fierce and overbearing.
"Stinking girl, do you think this young master can't do anything to you if you threaten me with death?" The young man's insufferably arrogant attitude could only be described with his nose in the air.
"I'm not joking with you. If I die, do you think Father will spare you?" Mu Ling 'er questioned loudly.
At this point, Han Yunxi more or less understood what was going on.
Mu Ling 'er had offended the entire Medicine City because of the empress dowager's birthday banquet and had been pursued by them for over a year now. In the past year, her father, Mu Ling'er, probably helped her block a lot of things. However, when Han Yunxi heard that Mu Ling'er was short of money, she knew that her father couldn't withstand the pressure and wanted her to go back.
If Han Yunxi guessed correctly, Mu Yingdong must have created the illusion of Mu Ling 'er's death, and then secretly imprisoned Mu Ling' er for the rest of her life so that she could continue to be loyal to the Mu Family.
Han Yunxi couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Being born in a big family, if one was too useless, one would be discriminated against. If one was too dazzling, there would be all kinds of thoughts.
"Hahaha, do you think this young master will let my father know?"
The young man's laughter pulled Han Yunxi back from her thoughts. She saw Mu Ling'er's dagger was really going to stab her neck.
"Miss Jiu!"
A guard shouted, but unfortunately, the young man slapped him and angrily said, "What are you stopping me for? If you want to die, then die with her! "
As he spoke, he dragged the guard out and kicked him to Mu Ling'er's side.
The guard was angry, but he didn't dare to say anything. He got up and resentfully stood to the side, not daring to make a sound.
"Mu Chaoran, don't go too far!" Mu Ling'er angrily said.
Mu Chaoran?
Han Yunxi was stunned at first, but then she almost laughed out loud. What a coincidence!
They had just made an appointment with the three medicine clans to discuss the sale of low quality ingredients at Pill Fiend Pharmacy when this guy showed up, right next to it. After all, most of the shady dealings between Medicine City and the black market were done by this young master of the Mu Family!
If they wanted to have a smooth negotiation with Medicine City, especially the Mu Family, they naturally had to first... have a good talk with this young master.
"Your Highness, this matter is none of our business, shouldn't we..."
Before Han Yunxi could finish speaking, Long Fei Ye coldly declared, "We're definitely going to interfere!"
"Guards, what are you waiting for?!" Mu Chaoran waved his hand in a particularly arrogant manner.
Who would've thought that Mu Ling'er would actually raise her head and cut her neck with the dagger, leaving a bloody mark? All of the guards stopped in their tracks. Han Yunxi was shocked. "Stupid girl, Mu Chaoran is stupid, but you're even stupider than him! You're a pig!"
Without Mu Ling'er, the Mu Family could've faked Mu Ling'er's medicine to create a genius. If Mu Yingdong hadn't been imprisoned by Mu Ling'er, he would've definitely made the first young master into the second genius of the Mu Family!
If Mu Ling'er died, Mu Chaoran would suffer the greatest loss!
How could Mu Chaoran think so deeply? Ever since he was young, he'd wanted nothing more than for Mu Ling'er to die. As long as she was dead, there would be no one to compete with him for the position of House Head. As long as she was dead, he would be able to unscrupulously search through her belongings and find the thirty-eight medicinal notes.
"What are you all standing there for? Don't you want to mingle in the Mu Family anymore? "He roared.
The guards listened to Mu Ling'er in the end. Even if the tip of the dagger had already pierced into her flesh and could take her life at any time, they still went forward to capture her.
Mu Ling'er suddenly smiled. Her smile was filled with despair. She really wanted to die.
Returning to the Mu Family was a fate worse than death for her. As for Qi Brother … … When she woke up at the inn and found out that Qi Brother had poisoned her to get rid of her, she suddenly realized how much Qi Brother disliked her.
Up until now, there were only two things in her life. One was to create medicine for the Mu Family, and the other was Gu!
Now, there was nothing left for her.
The guards were already in front of her. She could either stab her with the dagger or be captured by them.
Mu Ling'er closed her eyes. Just as she was about to vent her anger, a clang was suddenly heard and the dagger fell to the ground.
"Who's there?!" Mu Chaoran was the first to react.
Two quick-witted guards wanted to seize the chance to capture Mu Ling'er, but they suddenly collapsed to the ground with bloody wounds on their necks.
Now all of the guards were afraid and backed away.
Mu Chaoran was the most frightened of them all. He hid behind the guards and shouted, "You dare to provoke my Medicine City's Mu Family? Do you want to die?"
"Who's there? Come out! "
Long Fei Ye slowly landed with Han Yunxi in his arms. Mu Chaoran didn't recognize the Long Fei Ye, but felt that Han Yunxi's face was very familiar.
"Han Yunxi!" Mu Ling'er exclaimed.
Why did she run into this woman again? Why did she run into her when she was at her most wretched?
Mu Chaoran finally realized why he felt so familiar. This was the woman the Duke of Qin had once put a bounty on all of Cloud Realm Continent, Qin Wangfei!
So the man holding her waist so domineeringly was …
"Duke … of Qin," Mu Chaoran muttered.
Mu Chaoran had spent the past few months searching for Mu Ling'er, so he had no idea that Zhangsun Zelin had already surrendered to the Duke of Qin's estate. Although he feared Long Fei Ye in his heart, he still acted like the eldest young master of the Mu Clan and said, "Your Highness Duke of Qin, these are my Mu Clan's internal affairs. I ask that you make things easy for us."
Mu Chaoran was polite enough, but Long Fei Ye wasn't the least bit courteous. He … gave Mu Chaoran a Cold look without replying.
Feeling awkward, Mu Chaoran hardened his tone. "Someone … someone come and take Ninth Young Miss back!"
Although the Duke of Qin wasn't someone to be trifled with, neither was the head of Medicine City's Mu Clan. He'd heard of how Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi had teamed up with Gu Qi Sha to open Pill Fiend Pharmacy.
No matter what those two did, anyone who had anything to do with Pill Fiend Pharmacy was an enemy of Medical City and Medicine City.
Based on this alone, Mu Chaoran felt that he had no reason to be afraid of them!
Before the guards could move, Han Yunxi had already stepped in front of Mu Linger to block their path. She crossed her arms over her chest and smiled at Mu Chaoran, her smile completely harmless.
Mu Ling'er lowered her head and remained silent.
Seeing this, Mu Chaoran sneered. "Esteemed wangfei, it seems that esteemed wangfei is determined to meddle in my Mu Clan's internal affairs?"
Han Yunxi smiled and nodded.
Mu Chaoran didn't hold back and pointed at Han Yunxi. "Very good! You'd better not regret this! "
Then he turned to leave. He might be stupid, but he wasn't stupid enough to try and fight the Duke of Qin with just a few people.
He'd only taken two steps when he unwillingly turned back. "Making an enemy of Medicine City is the same as making an enemy of Medical City. There won't be a good ending!"
Han Yunxi had a very good temper. She smiled and waved goodbye.
Mu Chaoran was infuriated to death.
"Crazy woman!" He spat. Just as he was about to turn around, a sharp wind blade suddenly scraped past his neck.
It hurts!
He touched his hand and found it covered in blood. When he focused, he saw a bloodstained leaf on the ground in front of him.
He was scared out of his wits and turned to Long Fei Ye, only to see Long Fei Ye playing with a few leaves in his hand. He then looked at Han Yunxi and saw that she was still smiling and waving at him.
Mu Chaoran felt a chill run down his spine. He had a very bad premonition.
"Go on, why aren't you leaving?" Han Yunxi finally spoke in a very friendly tone.
"You … what do you want? This young master is the eldest young master of the Mu Clan. If you dare do anything to me, Medicine City won't let you off! "Mu Chaoran warned.
"Mu Ling'er, your brother is leaving. Aren't you going to send him off?" Han Yunxi asked.
Mu Ling'er finally raised her head and looked at Han Yunxi's straight back. She didn't know what possessed her, but she felt a sense of security. She didn't feel like she was alone anymore.
She walked out with her chin held high. "Of course I have to send him off properly!"
"Mu Ling'er! You dare! "Mu Chaoran roared.
"See if I dare or not!"
Mu Ling'er sneered and walked step by step towards Mu Chaoran.
Mu Chaoran turned to run, but Long Fei Ye immediately presented him with a leaf. He abruptly stopped, but Mu Ling'er kicked him from behind, just like how he'd kicked the guard. "Go on, didn't you want to leave?"
"Guards! Guards! "
No matter how Mu Chaoran shouted, it was all in vain. Who didn't fear the Duke of Qin's leaf?
Mu Ling'er crouched down and asked seriously, "You're not leaving?"
"I'm your brother!" Mu Chaoran emphasized.
"I have plenty of brothers. You're not the only one." Mu Ling'er smiled coldly.
"What are you thinking?" Mu Chaoran was scared.
Mu Ling'er smiled as innocently as Han Yunxi, but she suddenly threw a punch at Mu Chaoran's face. "This old lady has wanted to do you for a long time!"
"Mu Ling'er, you … ah … ah …"
Mu Chaoran couldn't speak because Mu Ling'er used both her hands, punching left and right to vent her anger. In the end, Mu Chaoran was knocked unconscious.
Long Fei Ye raised his eyebrows, but Han Yunxi was stunned. She didn't expect this girl's fists to be so hard.
She asked suspiciously, "Hey, doesn't your hand hurt?"
Mu Ling'er stood up, not caring about the blood on her fist. She said Coldly, "Han Yunxi, I didn't ask you to save me. I don't care what your motive is. You want my life and nothing else! "
Han Yunxi probably liked Mu Ling'er's stubbornness.
Although it was all because of a motive, it was indeed a motive. She took a step forward and whispered in Mu Ling'er's ear.
She didn't know what she said, but Mu Ling'er's cold and arrogant expression instantly softened.
"Really?" She asked seriously.
"If I lie to you, I'll die a horrible death. However, you better pretend that you don't know anything." Han Yunxi whispered.
