Chapter 99.1: Trapped (1/2)

The look of the figure was rather familiar as well.

Tang Doudou dropped the silver needles in her hand and was about to walk over to get a better look when she saw that the person seemed to have sensed her gaze and looked her way.

She hastily jumped into the small hollow in the hill to hide. For the person to have such keen senses, it was likely that he was another martial arts expert!

For better or for worse, she had also been within the Jianghu for quite a while so she understood the basic common sense.

However, no one had even heard her when she cried out loudly earlier, so where did this person come from?

As she thought about that, she felt that it had probably been long enough so she slowly lifted her head and looked over. Unexpectedly, she didn’t see that person’s figure. It seemed like the person had already left.

This place was not a good place to stay for long. It was better for her to find the road back to the sea of flowers and then head back to the carriage to wait for Baili Yu.

However, right after she turned around, she saw Mu Ye’s grim face. His warmth-less pupils shocked her so much she involuntarily shivered. She immediately reacted, taking a large step back as she stared guardedly at Mu Ye. “You, why are you here!?”

“Alliance Head Li, I trust you’ve been well since we last met!” Mu Ye’s cold pupils reflected the familiar features of the person in front of him. When he heard the familiar voice as well, he instantly recognized the person in front of him as Li Xueyi, that guy who has messed with him multiple times.

However, when he saw Li Xueyi’s attire, a trace of unnaturalness flashed through his expressionless eyes. Why did he dress up this way?

Or was it that she was like this from the beginning!?

Mu Ye was an astute person and figured out the complication in just a few moments. She was actually a girl. No wonder she lustily stroked his face the first time they met and even… His eyes had multiple strange expressions when he recalled that incident. He was the only one who knew how complicated his emotions were though, because throughout this entire process, his face was still calm and emotionless.

“What Alliance Head Li? You’ve got the wrong person!” Tang Doudou snapped back to her senses as well and immediately denied it. F*ck! It’s all cause she was too nervous earlier. She shouldn’t have taken the initiative to speak!

“Were you the one crying for help earlier?” Mu Ye asked coldly. He was thinking about other matters so he didn’t bother arguing with her over this topic.

Eh? He heard someone cry out ‘save me’ so he came to save her?

This big demon is that good-hearted?

Tang Doudou expressed extreme doubt towards this but she still nodded while stroking her chin. “It was me.”

After she said this, Mu Ye swept a cold gaze over her before turning and leaping out of the hollow. He strode away with large steps, seeming to be leaving in a rush.
