Chapter 147: See You Again
At night, Xie Yuan lay on the floor outside with his eyes open, unable to sleep for a long time.
Thinking of the secret stories he heard during the day, he had an indescribable feeling in his chest and just sighed slightly.
"Beauties are ill-fated... It's a bit unlucky to say this. It's just that these two girls, one has a more noble family background than the other, and one has a more miserable life experience than the other..."
Xie Yuan shook his head, thinking in his heart Feel some compassion.
Situ Qin's background is so profound and his identity is so complicated, I'm afraid there's no one else in the court, and the pressure on him is extremely heavy. His father died unjustly and his mother went crazy. Although he still had the emperor's uncle as a relative and a great supporter, he was the one who personally ordered his father to be killed...
There are eight aristocratic families outside who are interested in the blood of King Ping Xi. Looking at him with eager eyes, I am afraid that if it were another person, he would not be able to withstand such pressure, or he would have a perverse temper, or give up on himself.
But when Xie Yuan got along with Situ Qin, he only found her to be sunny, charming, generous and even a little playful. He could not tell that she had such a tragic life experience, and only occasionally revealed her love for people in the family. of resentment and disdain.
So strong... Xie Yuan was touched in his heart and heaved a sigh of relief.
As for the other one, before the accident, Mu Chaoyun probably only heard about peace and happiness and saw no worries.
As a spiritual genius from a large family, he grows flowers and grass, reads and practices every day, and lives a life of contentment and family reunion in the quiet depths of Beidu Mountain.
Then inexplicably, overnight, the world changed dramatically, and all his relatives died. He was the only one to escape. He didn't even know how all this happened, so he could only run for his life in panic.
“After getting rid of the enemy, I ventured back to the clan to collect the corpses of the clan members. I happened to bump into a caravan that had been cooperating to transport supplies and was trying to make money from the dead... I would have been furious.”
Xie Yuan shook his head, recalling what Mu Chaoyun said about how he was hunted down by the Grandmaster again.
Seeing that the enemy had not moved for a long time, she guessed that the enemy was no longer behind. She couldn't bear the loss of her family, and her family's corpses were exposed in the mountains, so she was willing to take a big risk to go back and collect the corpses - although it was irrational, it was understandable.
As a result, the extremely powerful enemy did not hit them, but they saw that the caravan that had been transporting supplies to the mountains took advantage of the formation to be broken and entered the Mu family's ancestral land, plundering and looting even the belongings of the dead.
When Mu Chaoyun saw that many tribesmen were even stripped of their clothes and were left without any dignity even after death, he became furious and took action.
However, the caravan is owned by Jinlong Trading Company, a large trading company on the border of Yanzhou, with extremely strong force. This time, there are also masters to suppress the formation, and the secret of the Black Heavenly Book was discovered from the clues of the ancestral land.
Although Mu Chaoyun took action with anger and barely managed to seriously injure the master of the trading company, he had already made a temporary breakthrough when the disaster struck, and now his injuries worsened, so he had to run for his life.
Jinlong Trading Company travels between the Central Plains, the border and the Western Regions, and may have connections with Lu Laosan. Mu Chaoyun speculated that it was the Malaysian bandit who was good at tracking who was contacted by the master. He chased and killed him all the way, making many detours. Until today.
Although those two people wanted to monopolize the Black Sky Book, they did not spread the news for the time being. But as time goes by, the news of the destruction of the Mu family will eventually spread, and then I'm afraid these two people will not be the only ones chasing them. And the powerful enemy that suddenly appeared and disappeared suddenly was more like a thick shadow hanging over the head.
Mu Chaoyun didn't know who the enemy was. Although she came with the caravan, her intuition was that she was not from the trading company. If Jinlong Trading Company had such strength, it would probably have become the top trading bank in the entire Dali Dynasty.
But this is still a clue. Mu Chaoyun said that after she leaves, she will go to Yanzhou and start investigating from Jinlong Trading Company.
Xie Yuan sighed secretly again, finally fully understanding why Mu Chaoyun spoke and did things that were sometimes extreme and cold.
Looking at her behavior, she originally had a calm temperament, but after such a big change, she has not completely changed into a different person, but she is already tough-minded. He tried to persuade her to act without others' suffering, and the two of them even got angry because of it... Oh, that's not what it should be.
He glanced at the screen quietly, and vaguely saw a slim shadow sitting cross-legged inside through the screen, and he felt a little gentle in his heart.
Go find her something delicious tomorrow.
In the next few days, Mu Chaoyun urged Xie Yuan to practice Kung Fu, but he was even more attentive.
I wonder if the two of them had talked about their respective family backgrounds - Xie Yuan listened to Mu Chaoyun's story, and whether out of politeness or not, in his spare time, he and his eldest brother depended on each other, and Zhang The hatred between the brothers and Yu Chunsheng was revealed.
Mu Chaoyun listened quietly, not showing any impatience at the trivial and insignificant love and hatred in the mountain village for a master of a wealthy family like her, and listened particularly carefully.
The two of them had never said these words to others in such detail - although Xie Yuan had talked a lot with Situ Qin, many of their deep hatreds were only mentioned briefly, and they did not spoil the scenery of the exquisite waterside pavilion and the sound of the piano in Situ's mansion.
We know each other a little better, and for a while we feel like we are in the same room as real family members.
As for Mu Chaoyun, he guided Xie Yuan to practice martial arts, not only from morning to night in the past few days, but also often started directly, either correcting him, or directly giving him a long memory, making Xie Yuan grin, knowing that the master His vision and requirements are really high.
It’s just a female master and a male disciple who are often close to each other. Xie Yuan often feels strange in his heart. But seeing Mu Chaoyun’s serious expression and calm expression, he doesn’t dare to blaspheme this peace too much. Practice well.

“Drink!”
Xie Yuan chopped down with an axe, like splitting a mountain, The sharp energy directly hit the courtyard wall from a long distance away, leaving a deep mark.
He raised his ax up, slammed it on the ground, took a long breath, and looked contentedly.
The moon-cutting ax technique has also broken through to a new level!
Although this ax power is not very powerful, it can initially be regarded as a long-distance attack, which is unprecedented!
"The posture is precise, the force is precise, and one ax can produce such power. This ax technique seems to have reached the next stage. You have gained something from your practice these days."
Mu Chaoyun stood quietly beside him and commented lightly. "Master's teachings are still good!"
Xie Yuan laughed.
Xie Yuan has been jokingly calling Mu Chaoyun his master these days, but Mu Chaoyun would always correct him seriously:
"I am not your master."
She shook her head Shaking his head, he looked at the ax marks on the wall again. There was a trace of strange color in the wave:
"The strength of the blade leaves the body, and even the blade light and sword gang behind it should be the characteristics of the Qi and Blood Transformation Realm. You can initially master it now, the talent... indeed Not bad.”
Mu Chaoyun has been particularly strict recently. When he heard her praising him, Xie Yuan felt happy and said with a smile:
"Thanks to 'Master'!"
Mu Chaoyun frowned slightly. , said with some dissatisfaction and embarrassment:
“Don’t call me master!”
However, she did not deny it, but just watched Xie Yuan consolidate the ax technique he had just broken through for a while, and suddenly Speaking out:
"I should leave tomorrow."
Xie Yuan's ax suddenly stopped in the air.
"That's it."
Xie Yuan sighed, put the ax away, and said with a smile:
"Every feast in the world must come to an end..."
"See you in the future."
Mu Chaoyun interrupted directly.
“Eh?”
Xie Yuan was stunned for a moment.
Mu Chaoyun said lightly:
"You ate the azure fruits I planted. This matter is not over yet... We will meet again."
Xie Yuan nodded silently and asked tentatively:
"How about staying for another two days? ?"
Mu Chaoyun was startled and frowned:
"There is no point in staying for two more days. I have to leave after all. Why should I act like a child?"
Listening to the beauty master's instructions and reprimands, Xie Yuan felt a little embarrassed:
"I feel like I have almost gained some understanding after reading the Black Sky Book..."
Hearing what he said, Mu Chaoyun fell into silence. , said coldly:
“If it had been before, I would have definitely thought that you had another agenda.
“The Black Sky Book is very mysterious, and no one has ever dared to claim that it will be understood. Even if you have a bright idea and think you will gain something in the next second, you will probably feel the same throughout your life. Countless people in the history of our race have proven this. ”
She looked at Xie Yuan's regretful expression, her eyes moved, and she said lightly:
"It's a waste of time... stay for one day at most." Get up, stretch out your hand and ask for Bagualian.
Mu Chaoyun threw the Bagua Lian to him casually and was stunned for a moment when he saw him running directly into the room to meditate without caring about himself.
Until evening, Xie Yuan remained motionless.
Mu Chaoyun was hungry and looked at the figure in the room with a faint look in his eyes.
He... really just wants to understand the Black Sky Book?
Mu Chaoyun pursed his lips tightly and his face became tense.
Early the next morning.
Mu Chaoyun put on the black burqa for the first time in a long time, but packed the skirt Xie Yuan purchased for her into her luggage and took back the Black Heaven Book.
"See you later."
Mu Chaoyun said four words stiffly, and left the small courtyard without looking back, walking further and further away as everyone in the escort agency turned a blind eye.
Xie Yuan had dark circles under his eyes and said after realizing it:
“Why don’t you look so happy? You didn’t even give me a chance to save you.”
[Black Sky Book] : (96/100)】
He looked at the progress in front of him and sighed. After all, he was almost there.
The speed of the day and night was already unprecedented, and his mind was throbbing. Unfortunately, Mu Chaoyun was very determined to leave, even more determined than yesterday, and he couldn't explain it.
He was about to take a good rest to regain his energy from studying the Black Sky Book. He accidentally glanced at the flower garden outside the window and was slightly startled.
This small garden is much prettier than before she came. He didn't care about these things before, he just let the handymen do it casually, and he didn't pay close attention in the past few days.
After Mu Chaoyun left, he discovered that this flowerbed was full of neat branches and bright flowers, vying for brilliance. It was pleasant to look at, and it was no longer a useless decoration.
Xie Yuan smiled, turned around and finally lay back on his couch after a long time, as if there was still warmth and fragrance left.
Even if there is no breakthrough in the Black Sky Book, it is still good to stay for one more day.
