C585 Uncover (2/2)
”This …” The old man hesitated.
Black Martial Aunt also frowned.
”What is it? Is it inconvenient? ” White Mirrorjade continued to ask.
”It's not that it's inconvenient, it's just that we have a rule. The method to pass through the canyon can only be given to the people who contributed to our village. How many of you are there?” The black clothed girl glanced at Mu Ru Yue and then looked at the few people who had fainted.
”Then, how can I be considered to have rendered meritorious service?” White Mirrorjade asked.
”I have one thing. If any of you can help me recognize it, I will agree to your request.” The black aunt looked at Murong Yue and White Mirrorjade and said. White Mirrorjade was surprised. I thought it was something important.
In the end, it turned out to be a acknowledgement?
Isn't this a bit too hasty?
”Elder, is this alright?”
Black Martial Aunt asked the elder for his opinion. The elder let out a helpless sigh: ”You little girl, you always use the matters of our stronghold to decide on your own. As the Holy Maiden, how can an old skeleton like me be at ease to hand over the stronghold to you?”
”Elder, this is the time.” The woman looked at the elder expectantly.
The Elder nodded, and then said to White Mirrorjade and Murong Yue, ”As long as you can recognize what Black Aunt is carrying and agree to three conditions, we will bring you out.” Otherwise... This young lady and the rest of you, don't even think about leaving that easily.
”Although your acting is quite good, it's still impossible to deceive an old bone like me.”
The Elder's words caused Murong Yue and White Mirrorjade to look at each other in dismay. Seeing that she was exposed, Mu Ru Yue moved further away from White Mirrorjade. She didn't look like the little white flower victim just now. She stood up and looked calmly at the elder as she said to the girl, ”To be honest, we aren't really together. But, it is also true that I have a husband.
Just now, I was only worried that you would leave me here to marry someone. ”It's not my intention to make such a move.”
”How would this old man care about such small matters?” ”However, if you can't help Aunt Black, you won't be able to get out of the stronghold.” The elder said.
”In that case, Lady Black, please speak.” Mu Ru Yue asked.
”You were lying to me just now?” Black Nun looked at Mu Ru Yue in shock. She didn't know how to react to Mu Ru Yue's sudden change in expression. She was even slightly angry. Mu Ru Yue just smiled and didn't say anything.
”Girl, you can't even see such a basic level of deceit. It's all thanks to our tribe's Holy Maiden. If I were to die, wouldn't this stronghold be sold by you?” The black-clothed old man said with a bit of disappointment.
The woman was unyielding. ”That's why I have to find him. When that happens, wouldn't that person just join us?”
As she spoke, Aunt Black took out a box. Inside this box was a jade pendant. After seeing this jade pendant, Murong Yue and White Mirrorjade glanced at each other, both of them speechless.
He saw that on the jade ornament, there was a word 'Phoenix' written on it. It was a jade ornament and the dragon carving was very lifelike. Other than the royal family, there was no one else in the world who could use this jade pendant.
”Princess, which one is this?” White Mirrorjade asked.
”He's not from our house.” Mu Ru Yue said decisively. White Mirrorjade only smiled. ”It seems that it really is a coincidence.”
”What are you talking about? You know the owner of this jade pendant? He had promised me he would marry me, but he did knock the rest of us out and ran away. This jade pendant, I was the one who pulled it down during the fight.
I'm going to find him and leave him here. ”
As the black aunt spoke, she looked at Murong Yue and White Mirrorjade with a burning gaze.
