Ouyang Ye glanced at the figures of those people leaving in a hurry, then turned and blocked the fake Mu Long who was pulling Sister-in-law Mu Xiang to leave, saying coldly, "Sit down." As he spoke, he glanced at Sister-in-law Mu Xiang.
Ouyang Ye's eyes held no trace of tenderness, only coldness.
Sister-in-law Mu Xiang trembled at the sight of Ouyang Ye like this, then looked up at the fake Mu Long who was about to resist, "Listen to him." Her voice was trembling.
Seeing Sister-in-law Mu Xiang's frightened expression and thinking of his suddenly lost demonic arts, the fake Mu Long had no choice but to compromise. He deliberately glanced at Mu Anxiao's face, meaning to ask for her help.
Mu Anxiao sensed the meaning behind fake Mu Long's (Mu Xi's) look, but to avoid Ouyang Ye seeing through her, she dodged his gaze and then let out a light laugh.
This time, Ouyang Ye heard Mu Anxiao's laughter and immediately fixed his gaze on her face, "What are you laughing at?"
Mu Anxiao did not hide her smile. Instead, she calmly looked at Ouyang Ye, who was deeply puzzled by her laughter, and deliberately remained silent.
The fake Mu Long and Sister-in-law Mu Xiang returned to their chairs and dared not say a word.
Ouyang Ye: "Why aren't you speaking?" he frowned.
Mu Anxiao: "Do you want them to know your business too?" She glanced at the terrified Sister-in-law Mu Xiang and the fake Mu Long waiting for her help.
Immediately, Ouyang Ye glanced at Sister-in-law Mu Xiang and the fake Mu Long, and snorted, "You speak."
"I won't speak unless you let them go," Mu Anxiao widened her eyes.
Ouyang Ye scanned Mu Anxiao from head to toe and said, "Do you think you are qualified to reason with me?"
Mu Anxiao: "No," she said, looking up and meeting Ouyang Ye's eyes firmly, "but I know that what you said was all to scare them. You wouldn't kill anyone."
"How do you know? Do you know me well?" Ouyang Ye retorted.
Mu Anxiao was momentarily speechless at Ouyang Ye's words, then continued, "I don't know you, but this is the rule for those in higher positions. If you dare to harm them in the slightest, those above will know immediately. And when they know, your master must have told you the consequences, right?"
The "those above" Mu Anxiao spoke of were the 'Immortals'. She had only just confirmed Ouyang Ye was an Immortal, but she didn't know his specific celestial position.
Upon hearing Mu Anxiao's words, Ouyang Ye smiled, "My identity has been seen through by you."
"What do you think?" Mu Anxiao said, glancing at the fake Mu Long and Sister-in-law Mu Xiang again, "Let them go."
"What if I say no?" Ouyang Ye looked at Mu Anxiao with interest.
Mu Anxiao pursed her lips and clenched her fists slightly, "Then I won't be polite."
"You, a cultivator, still want to..."
"My name is Mu Anxiao. Do you know me?" Mu Anxiao interrupted, tilting her chin.
In this world, Mu Anxiao was not a well-known person, but in the Heavenly Realm, she was a 'fraudster' despised by various Immortals. Therefore, she did not believe that this person would not recognize her.
Of course, she had not intended to reveal her identity so overtly. She had only wanted to lift her veil before the wedding ceremony to startle them, and then use some words to dissuade him before he sent people to find Mu Xiang. Who knew that he had planned everything in advance? Since that was the case, she saw no need to follow her original plan.
"Mu Anxiao." Ouyang Ye repeated, thought for a moment, and his eyes widened, "It's you."
"You know me," Mu Anxiao's lips curved, "It seems I am quite famous after all."
However, after Mu Anxiao said this, Ouyang Ye laughed, "I was looking for you. This is truly fate between us." He continued to laugh.
Mu Anxiao was stunned, "You were looking for me?" she pointed at herself.
Ouyang Ye: "Yes, I've been looking for you for several years. It's precisely because I couldn't find you that I decided to marry any kind woman. I didn't expect..." He reached out and placed a hand on Mu Anxiao's shoulder, "you to reveal your identity yourself."
"..." Mu Anxiao let out a dry laugh, completely bewildered by everything.
Outside, the servants had already gone to see off the other guests, leaving only Feng Qishi. At this moment, he clearly heard Ouyang Ye's words from inside and felt a sense of crisis. "She has no fate with you. Stop talking nonsense." As he spoke, he crossed the threshold and walked towards them.
Hearing this, Ouyang Ye shifted his gaze from Mu Anxiao's face to Feng Qishi, "Who are you?"
Feng Qishi: "I," he said, stopping beside Mu Anxiao and grabbing Ouyang Ye's wrist, "am her partner." With that, he flung Ouyang Ye's hand away and immediately took Mu Anxiao's arm.
Mu Anxiao was startled, "Shen Fengzi, what are you doing?"
Feng Qishi: "Don't talk to him." As he spoke, he casually pulled Mu Anxiao behind him, blocking Ouyang Ye. xxs壹贰
Ouyang Ye laughed, "You like her."
Feng Qishi firmly stated, "Yes, I like her."
"Jealousy," Ouyang Ye added.
Feng Qishi believed that by making things clear to Ouyang Ye, he would no longer have improper thoughts about Mu Anxiao, so he continued, "Yes, I am jealous. Why are you looking for her?"
Ouyang Ye: "She has potential."
"Potential?" Feng Qishi was confused.
Mu Anxiao was startled, casually pushed away the hand Feng Qishi was holding her wrist with, and moved forward to stand beside Feng Qishi, looking up at Ouyang Ye, "What do you mean by that?"
Feng Qishi looked down at his hand, saying nothing.
Ouyang Ye smiled and shifted his gaze to Mu Anxiao's face, "Marry me, and I'll tell you."
"What are you talking about?" Mu Anxiao was disdainful.
Ouyang Ye was not angry and continued to smile, "As long as you marry me, I will not only tell you this, but I will also let Mu Xiang go. What do you say?"
Mu Anxiao had only just begun to understand a bit about emotions, and she had also suppressed her feelings for Feng Qishi, deciding to focus on her work.
Now, with Ouyang Ye speaking like this, she found it infuriating, "Don't make demands of me. I will never marry you."
"You are unwilling?" Ouyang Ye's face turned cold.
"Why would I be willing? Besides, weren't you going to marry Mu Xiang to that idiot? Why... are you marrying someone else? Speaking of which," Mu Anxiao couldn't understand Ouyang Ye, "what exactly do you mean? And aren't you afraid of your superiors causing trouble for you by doing this?"
"Marry me, and I'll tell you," Ouyang Ye smiled.
Mu Anxiao was startled, "..." She turned to look at Feng Qishi, indicating she was at a loss with Ouyang Ye.
Feng Qishi glanced at Mu Anxiao, then looked up at Ouyang Ye, who was staring at Mu Anxiao, and said coldly, "Ouyang Ye, what exactly do you want?"
Hearing this, Ouyang Ye did not look at Feng Qishi, but continued to stare at Mu Anxiao, who deliberately lowered her head, unwilling to communicate with him, "I see, it's because of him that you disagree with me, right?"
Having lived this long, Mu Anxiao had met all sorts of strange people, but she had never encountered someone like Ouyang Ye, an 'Immortal' who couldn't understand what people were saying. Slowly raising her head, she took a deep breath and said, "I don't know you. You ask me to marry you. Don't you think that's ridiculous?"
"This dress suits you very well," Ouyang Ye interjected.
Mu Anxiao was momentarily speechless, looked down at the wedding dress on herself, and said disdainfully, "What are you talking about? What am I supposed to say to you?" She did not show impatience for the time being.
Feng Qishi looked at Mu Anxiao, who was communicating with Ouyang Ye reasonably well, and then at Ouyang Ye, who was deliberately playing dumb and no longer speaking, and deliberately asked, "Mu Shazi, why are you saying so much to him? You're not really captivated by his looks, are you?"
He knew that Mu Anxiao particularly hated others guessing her thoughts, and he knew even better that Mu Anxiao was someone who liked to deliberate on such matters, as she was accustomed to discerning the other party's intentions in conversation.
However, facing someone like Ouyang Ye, he felt Mu Anxiao had no need to waste more words, because based on his understanding of Ouyang Ye's hidden intentions, he knew... Ouyang Ye's stalling tactics were definitely above Mu Anxiao's.
And by saying this, he intended to make Mu Anxiao shut up and cooperate with him. He believed that with their understanding, she would surely grasp his meaning!
Mu Anxiao knew that Feng Qishi would not usually speak like this, so she stared at Ouyang Ye while processing Feng Qishi's words in her mind. Then, she turned to Feng Qishi and said, "I'm not that shallow." She feigned anger, but in reality, she understood Feng Qishi's meaning.
Feng Qishi: "Still saying you're not shallow. You're too lazy to listen when I talk to you. Before, when I confessed to you, you didn't even bother to reply and just walked away. Now, this guy says he wants to marry you, and you're chatting with him. You're really shallow." As he spoke, he began to back away.
Seeing this, Mu Anxiao followed Feng Qishi's steps, backing away as she spoke, "I just want him to let Mu Xiang go. You..."
"Your master doesn't allow you to fall for anyone. You're actually falling for him now. Fine, I'll go report you."
Upon hearing this, Mu Anxiao cooperated with Feng Qishi and grabbed his arm, "Don't talk nonsense." She became agitated.
"You're the one who abandoned me," Feng Qishi said, pulling Mu Anxiao towards the door.
Mu Anxiao followed Feng Qishi, continuing to back away as she said, "We don't have the same master anyway. What right do you have to report me, you bastard."
"You're cursing me."
"So what if I curse you?" Mu Anxiao retorted, turning to look at the door that was getting closer to them, and asked with her mind, "What do you want to do?" She turned back to stare at Feng Qishi, slowing her steps.
Feng Qishi winked, meaning he just wanted Mu Anxiao to stay away from Ouyang Ye.
Upon seeing this, Mu Anxiao understood Feng Qishi's intention and immediately stopped at the door with Feng Qishi. Then, she let go and turned to look at Ouyang Ye, who was still standing in the center of the reception hall.
Ouyang Ye: "Your relationship is truly unusual." As he spoke, he waved his arm, and a gust of wind came, and the door slammed shut.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, Feng Qishi and Mu Anxiao felt nothing, as they had no intention of escaping.
Therefore, Feng Qishi believed that the distance between Mu Anxiao and Ouyang Ye was just right.
Mu Anxiao was indifferent.
Ouyang Ye: "Now, marry me."
"Marry my head," Mu Anxiao heard Feng Qishi's words and decided she had no need to waste any more words with Ouyang Ye. She began to untie her sash, "I've never met such a domineering Immortal like you." With that, her sash was completely untied.
Beside her, Feng Qishi looked at Mu Anxiao's actions with astonishment, his eyes wide. He quickly moved to face Mu Anxiao and grabbed her hand, "What are you doing?" he said, not daring to look down.
Mu Anxiao: "Let go."
"I know you're angry that he's forcing you to marry him, but you can't do this. I'll protect you. Hurry up and tie it." Feng Qishi's eyes darted around, unable to find a place to rest.
Mu Anxiao looked up at Feng Qishi's nervous expression and said, "Since you don't want me to do this, then turn into clothes for me."
Every time Mu Anxiao wanted Feng Qishi to magically change into clothes for her, he would drag his feet and eventually refuse.
Because of past experiences, she was worried that if she made this request, he might say something about her in front of Mu Xi and the others, which would ruin her reputation.
Therefore, Mu Anxiao wanted to take off the troublesome and obstructive wedding dress, and then, wearing the black inner garment, use her magic to break Ouyang Ye's improper intentions towards her.
Now that Feng Qishi was like this, she thought that if she proposed it herself, Feng Qishi wouldn't be able to say anything, right?
"Okay," Feng Qishi readily agreed, released his single hand, and began to cast his spell.
Ouyang Ye's eyes widened as he saw Feng Qishi's hand gestures.
In contrast, the fake Mu Long looked at Feng Qishi casting his spell and seemed to have found hope, a smile appearing on his lips.
Sister-in-law Mu Xiang was stunned.
Over there, Mu Anxiao's wedding dress fell to the ground. Then, she was enveloped by a blue light and transformed into men's attire.
Feng Qishi looked at Mu Anxiao dressed like this and breathed a sigh of relief.
As the blue light dispersed, Mu Anxiao looked down at her clothes, then raised her hand, took off the hairpin, threw it on the ground, and said, "Move aside."
"I'll protect you," Feng Qishi said, turning towards Ouyang Ye.
Ouyang Ye's lips curved, "You were not affected by my magic."
"Your magic can only interfere with demonic arts, not me," Feng Qishi said coldly.
Ouyang Ye: "It seems I overestimated myself." As he spoke, he turned to look at the fake Mu Long, "Come here."
The fake Mu Long frowned.
Mu Anxiao, while pinning up her hair with a rope, said, "Ouyang Ye, if you dare to touch a single finger of a mortal, you... should know your consequences." As she spoke, she walked to Feng Qishi's side.
This time, Feng Qishi merely turned his head to glance at Mu Anxiao, saying nothing.
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Ye turned back to look at Mu Anxiao, "You are mine."
Mu Anxiao sneered, "Stop talking nonsense. You're an Immortal, you'd better control your mouth." As she spoke, she spread her palm, glanced at the fake Mu Long behind him, "If you dare to touch a single finger of him, you'd better wait."
