C184 (1/2)
It was currently the beginning of winter. With a sweep of the cold air, plum trees were blossomed. The plum fragrance mixed with the winter mist was both delicate and ethereal.
In this jade fog, under the scattered shadows of the cold plum blossoms, there was a moon-white robe. Standing on the plum tree, there was a smile on his face as he looked at Mu Wan.
From afar, he looked like a plum petal falling to the ground.
However, his face was ghastly pale and devoid of blood. Although he was standing, Mu Wan Yun could see that he was completely holding on. If not for this plum tree, he would have fallen long ago.
”Ruan Chu!”
Mu Wan Yun shouted anxiously.
Rong Chu smiled apologetically and said, ”I'm sorry, but I knew that the Duke of Jin had become the Emperor of the Great Qin. I had provoked Shangguan Fei outside and had no way to hide from you.”
Even though he was injured so badly, he was still glib.
Mu Wan had always known that he had this kind of character. He was extremely angry, but there was nothing he could do about it. She went to him and held him. She wanted to pinch him.
She suddenly raised her eyes, only to see a look of tolerance in her eyes. She turned around and saw that it was Leaves!
Her face was covered with a black veil, and she was standing not far away. She was looking in this direction, and her gaze was fixated on the injuries on Rong Chu's body.
”Ye-zi!” Mu Wan's shout startled Ye Wen, so she slowly walked over.
As for Mu Wanyun, he felt the strange gazes from the two people beside him intersecting with each other.
There was a quiet and secluded palace near the pavilion. This palace was very close to the Mansion of Huanan Palace, which was the same as the garden at the back of the hall.
Mu Wan Yun lived here, so the others would stay far away. This place was relatively safer and quieter.
It's the best place to rest.
If it wasn't for his outstanding lightness skills, he would have long been chased down the path he came from. Perhaps he would have also died at the hands of the hidden guards in the morning.
When he saw Mu Wan and Ye Wen, he knew that he was safe. He relaxed in one breath and immediately fainted.
Mu Huanyun found the herbs and wrapped the wound together with Leaves. He lay down on the bed in peace.
Mu Wan Yun and Ye Wen were already exhausted and sweating profusely.
The two of them sat against the bed. Mu Huanyun wiped her forehead with the back of her hand and started to think rapidly. Did that mean she could hurt Chu Feng so badly?
Her and Rong Chu's friend of many years knew a lot about his cultivation and martial arts. In fact, there weren't many people in the entire Mystic Moon world that could hurt him. Even if he couldn't win, in terms of running, there was no one left who could outdo him.
It was definitely strange that he had sustained such heavy injuries.
She glanced over and saw Leaves seemed to be thinking the same thing.
They looked at each other, and Leaves revealed her thoughts, ”There's definitely more than one person chasing after him.”
This was something Murong Yun agreed to because there were many wounds on Chu's body, some light and some heavy. There were knife wounds and some sword wounds. The most fatal was the arrow that pierced his chest, almost piercing through his body. Mu Wanyun clearly saw that if this arrow had deviated by even a little bit, then Chu Feng's life would have definitely been lost on the spot!
Where would he be able to escape to here?
Although he said that he had offended the emperor, it was definitely impossible for him to do so. At the same time, he was also shocked by who exactly was it that was able to force Chu Tianxiong to hide within the Great Qin Imperial Palace.
Once, Jin Yu Lie had asked her if she knew of Chu Lian's true identity, but Mu Wanyun had said she didn't. He was friends with him, and even though they weren't normally close, they definitely had a life-or-death friendship at a critical moment.
It's not only men and men who have that kind of relationship. They had deep feelings for each other, but they were definitely not involved in any relationships between men and women.
Even though he often said that Mu Wanyun couldn't find anyone to marry, he was reluctant to have her marry him, and Mu Wanyun often used all sorts of insults to hit him.
However, if anyone was in danger, the remaining people would definitely risk their lives to save them.
It was even under this kind of relationship that Mu Yun never asked Rong Chu about his true identity. Everyone had their own secrets.
But when Jin Yu Lie brought it up, Mu Huanzhi paid more attention. Thinking of the past, she could guess his identity.
Leaves said, to be able to hurt Chu Feng like this, it was definitely a well-trained death soldier, and the number of them was huge.
Could it be them?
Mu Wan Yun looked at the unconscious Rong Chu and had some doubts. It seemed that there was a need to wait for him to wake up, so that he could get to the bottom of it.
However, Mu Yunji never expected that the arrival of Chu Feng would cause her to discover a small secret of Ye.
Ye Wen and Rong Chu had met before in the Kunlun Mountains. Once, they had eaten the food made by Ye Wen. The two men, one big and one small, expressed that they would rather go on a hunger strike than to eat the food made by Ye Wen.
But later, only Ammu was left to clamor. She silently cooked or put countless salty and putrid dishes on the leaves, or forgot to add salt and tasteless soup.
Mu Huanyun knew that he had always advocated among the tens of thousands of flowers. The appearance of the dead flowers seemed to have changed. His gaze would always, intentionally or unintentionally, stay on Leaves' body by a few points.
Mu Yunji secretly smiled, it turned out that he also had a time of enlightenment.
However, Leaves seemed to mind her dark and bloody past …
It took him ten days to get up from the bed. He's a little better. These days, Mu Wan Yun had taken care of him in every way possible.
Jin Yu Lie was still extremely busy.
Since she was almost done, she felt that she should give Leaves a chance.
