Qing Yuan set out determined, all alone. Simply no one could stop him.

"Sigh… will I meet him again in my life?" Fifth Elder sighed deeply.

"He has someone he wants to be with. Perhaps, as long as he stays by her side, even if it is just a grave, he is actually happier than going back to Fengyun Manor," Hong Yu said with a faint smile.

She knew that Qing Yuan was seeking forgiveness from the woman, Yun"er, in his own way. Hence, she did not stop him.

"However, Qing Yuan is too soft-hearted. Although he killed Ziyan, he let her die too easily. Even the lady of Talon"s Gate was more ruthless than him." Hong Yu"s eyes fell on Ziyan slowly. She narrowed her eyes as she said, "That is Qing Yuan. He can never be ruthless to anyone."

Cough… cough…

"Hong Yu, are we going to Liu Yun Kingdom? Would the manor lady meet me? What if she chases me out of the kingdom?" Fifth Elder coughed, seemingly awkward.

"The manor lady is very gentle."

Feng Ruqing was very gentle, especially to the ladies.

"If you are really afraid of her, put some fake freckles on your face. She will never be mad at you if you do that."

"That"s a good idea." Fifth Elder pondered for a while.

"Alright, I will do that."

In order to seek forgiveness from Feng Ruqing, he did not even care for his reputation, let alone his dignity.

***

At the courtyard of the Mu family.

A sorrowful voice came from outside the courtyard. Hearing this, Mu Ling who was comforting Chen Qingyan frowned. His face turned icy cold. 

"Young Manor Master, please avenge me." Mu Yong stumbled into the courtyard, his pale face was dejected, his eyes were swimming in tears.

"Where is the black dragon?" Seeing Mu Yong rush into the courtyard, Mu Ling face darkened a few shades.

"Young Manor Master, the black dragon can speak. Nan Xian knows that I am getting the black dragon for Lady Qingyan. Hence, he took the black dragon away. He has even crippled my cultivation because of a lady. He has gone too far! You must avenge me!" Mu Yong"s face was contorted with rage.

"Your cultivation is crippled? Although you are my second uncle, you must know that cultivation and strength are of utmost importance in the Mu family. Moreover, you can"t even bring the black dragon home." Mu Ling frowned.

"But… but I am no match for Nan Xian," Mu Yong said, aggrieved. Since he was no match for Nan Xian, how could he bring the black dragon back to the Mu family?

"You can"t beat Nan Xian?" Mu Ling"s eyes turned icy cold.

It was widely known that Nan Xian was a great talent. However, was he actually at the stage where even Mu Yong was no match for him?

"Brother Ling, if Nan Xian wants the black dragon, he can just take it. Xian"er only has a green snake by his side all these years. It"s natural if he wants to pet a dragon. My health… there is another way to improve my health…" Qingyan glimpsed at Mu Yong who was standing by the side as she said with a faint smile on her face.


What Qingyan truly meant was that Nan Xian had actually disregarded Qingyan"s health and took the dragon away to be his pet.

Sure enough, as soon as Mu Ling heard Chen Qingyan"s words, he was burning with anger. He clenched his fist tightly. Veins could be seen bulging on his temples.

"You have always cared for him, but what has he done? He knows that your health has been declining from caring for the old master, yet he takes your nourishment away. He cares for us!"
