Chapter 87: Chapter 85: Who Are You Going to Find?
Yun Ran tilted her head slightly and looked at him for a while, expressing confusion:
"What nonsense are you talking about? What does my marrying you have to do with Shen Mubai?"
"Wasn’t it your sweetheart who knocked you out and threw you into the bridal sedan?"
The man frowned upon hearing this and coldly corrected, "She’s not."
Yun Ran blinked her eyes, "Then... an old flame?"
"Lin, Wan, Yue!"
The man’s eyes narrowed, his voice full of danger. Yun Ran quickly leaned her head over and gently rubbed against his handsome face, "Okay, okay, I won’t say it anymore!"
The man’s expression eased slightly, yet he stubbornly wanted an answer.
"Then what happened later? You clearly had the ability to escape but chose to stay, why?"
"Why..."
Yun Ran tilted her head, seriously thinking, "Because I can’t leave now!"
In fact, on the third day after Yun Ran woke up, she once thought about returning to Tianyin Pavilion to find her master. But the bird told her that the two of them couldn’t leave Tianchu Capital right now. If they insisted, one would die and the other would fall back into a deep sleep.
Moreover, it told her that if she diligently completed tasks to accumulate Merit Points and frequently hugged Nangong Mo’s thigh to absorb Spiritual Energy to aid its cultivation, then in one year or six months at the earliest, they could regain their freedom. By then, the world would be vast, and they could go anywhere they wanted.
After hearing Yun Ran’s answer, Nangong Mo’s eyes narrowed dangerously, his handsome face seemed to be shrouded in a layer of frost, gloomy and terrifying.
"Can’t leave now, that means, will leave in the future? "
She will leave him!
The man darkened his face, hooked his finger under the girl’s chin, staring into her eyes, he sinisterly asked, "Where are you planning to go? Who will you look for?"
The girl blinked, looking innocent and confused, "Of course to find my master and senior brothers! Where else could I go?"
Senior brothers... them?
"You have many senior brothers?"
"Yes, yes! All my senior brothers are handsome and amazing!"
At this point, the girl’s eyes sparkled, bright as the stars in the sky, flashing with excitement and pride.
"The Eldest Senior Brother has the highest martial arts skills! He’s also the most steady, treating all of us junior brothers and sisters very well!"
"The Second Senior Brother is the best at alchemy! He often concocts some strange and wonderful pills, and I love sneaking into his alchemy room to steal medicine."
"The Third Senior Brother is best at poisoning, and he’s the most devilishly charming among all the senior brothers. Every time I go down the mountain with him, I’m almost burned to death by the jealous stares of those women!"
"But the master doesn’t allow me to go down the mountain alone, and the Third Senior Brother goes down more frequently than anyone else, not only flaunting around but also always pranking me, so I both love and hate him!"
"The Fourth Senior Brother is the gentlest! When I was young, I thought that if a girl were to marry someone, she should marry someone like the Fourth Senior Brother."
"And the Fifth... hmm!"
Before the girl could finish speaking, a domineering and forceful kiss descended like a storm, instantly swallowing all unfinished words.
The man with his handsome face darkened, his slightly narrowed black eyes burned with a faint fury, or perhaps it should be called jealousy.
He held the girl’s head with one hand and wrapped his other arm tightly around her slender waist, firmly securing her in his embrace. His domineering demand left no room for her to escape or refuse.
Yun Ran’s mind went blank, her ears filled only with the sound of the wind and his breathing.
Almost as a reflex, her beautiful fair fingers clutched at his clothes, her face slightly upturned, allowing him to do as he pleased.
