Chapter 444: Chapter 446 I Will Take Responsibility for You (Part 4)
Mu Ruyue gave a bitter smile and shook her head. She had been too sensitive lately; the child hadn’t even been born yet, how could it possess such strength?
She must have been overthinking it…
Two days later.
Third Young Master Xiao stood outside the cave, sneering at the sealed entrance, “It’s been two days. That girl is definitely gone, her body decayed. She was weaker, and no one else is to blame. Come, open this cave for me!”
This time, it was her own doing; even Xiao Feng couldn’t blame him.
As if he could see the despair in Xiao Feng’s eyes, Third Young Master Xiao raised his head and burst into arrogant laughter. As he laughed wildly, the entrance slowly opened…
Just then, a voice tinged with laughter emanated from within the cave, eerily resounding through the quiet hinterland…
“What? Is it time yet?”
A figure in white, ghostly in appearance, appeared before Third Young Master Xiao.
His gaze gradually moved upward, and at that moment, he was struck by the stunning beauty of the woman’s face. Her lips curved into a smile as she gazed calmly at him, but to Third Young Master Xiao, her smile seemed ominously cold, like that of a vengeful spirit coming to claim a life.
“Ahhhh!!!”
The piercing scream echoed throughout the cave, the reverberation as if responding to him…
“You… are you human or a ghost?” Third Young Master Xiao’s eyes widened in terror as he quickly stepped back, his voice trembling, wishing he could pass out right then.
Mu Ruyue’s eyes twinkled with amusement as she softly asked, “What do you think?”
“No!!! It’s impossible, you’re supposed to be dead!”
Having lived with the Fierce Beast for two days, why, why was this woman still alive…
“Did I pass the test?” Mu Ruyue glanced at him indifferently, “But this test was indeed very difficult. I almost lost my life, so I will remember today’s events and will definitely repay you in the future. You don’t need to thank me, I never like owing favors to others.”
In fact, in that critical moment, Mu Ruyue had intended to hide inside the Dan Book, but before she could use it, the Taotie had already fled in terror…
Third Young Master Xiao swallowed hard, trembling and unable to utter a word.
He had been sure that Mu Ruyue would surely die; who could have predicted that her life would be spared to such an extent…
Mu Ruyue said no more, simply walked past him…
“Yue!”
In the courtyard, as the maple leaves gently fell, Xiao Feng spotted the swiftly approaching Mu Ruyue and hurried over, anxiously asking, “Are you all right?”
“I’m fine.” Mu Ruyue shook her head, smiling as she spoke.
Hearing this, Xiao Feng visibly relaxed.
Ever since the old man returned, he hadn’t stayed long before leaving again, otherwise, even if Third Master Xiao had a hundred times the courage, he wouldn’t dare to act this way.
He was really afraid he would lose control and kill that bastard.
“It’s good that you’re fine,” Xiao Feng affectionately touched Mu Ruyue’s head, his handsome face lit up with a smile, “You must be tired; I’ll take you to rest.”
“Okay.”
Mu Ruyue nodded slightly, thus she did not see the cold glint that flashed through the man’s eyes the moment she turned around.
Third Young Master Xiao!
Xiao Feng curled his lips into a chilling smile. He had previously refrained from dealing with him for two reasons: he did not consider him a threat, and out of respect for Xiao Baixuan.
But since he dared to harm Yue, this time, he would no longer hold back…
