Chapter 129: Meeting Under the Moon at Yao Tai

After hearing what Xue Mu meant, Zhuo Qingqing froze, but there was no discomfort in her heart, instead she was extremely interested. So, Demoness Demon, born to pile up, the heavens gave Gongzi to Star Moon Sect is really too good …… She thought about it, and excitedly provided ammo reference, “I heard that Mu Jianli’s recent days aren’t too pleasant either.”

Xue Mu came to be interested: “How so? Isn’t she very sought after?”

“The wind direction is a bit off, recently there are quite a few gossips, mainly saying that she looks down on her fellow disciples, such as saying that the rest of the Subterranean Dragon Ten are just drunkards fishing for fame, another example is saying that she stabbed an admirer with her sword at the drop of a hat, and also saying that she doesn’t respect the elders of her fellow disciples, and that she has her nose turned to the sky.”

Xue Mu was stunned, “Impossible, this isn’t like Mu Jianli’s character at all. Is someone smearing?”

“Obviously.” Zhuo Qingqing smiled faintly, “I think it’s possible that the root is coming from us.”

Xue Mu pondered for a moment and said indistinctly, “Back then, in that battle, Lin Wu Ya let our siblings go, those people hated Lin Wu Ya, and not being able to clash directly, they tripped up his disciple?”

“Mostly yes, and it can’t be ruled out that some people were already jealous and pushed the envelope even more.”

Xue Mu thought about Zhu Chen Yao’s performance in the beginning, and knew that it was indeed true, maybe this rumor maker had Zhu Chen Yao’s share, and there was more than just one Zhu Chen Yao in the world, and the people who were jealous of Mu Jian Li must have been a sea of people.

At this point, it’s still just smearing her character and isolating her. If it continues, I don’t know how many more unpleasant rumors will pop up. Xue Mu knew better than anyone else in this world that rumors were truly capable of killing, even if Mu Jian Li’s heart wasn’t preoccupied and wouldn’t be affected too much, it was inevitable that she would still be a bit disturbed, as human nature would have it.

No one would want to allow themselves to be hated by others, especially for a fairy like her who was accustomed to being praised, the sense of fallout was expected to be a bit great.

This is really a heaven-sent opportunity, the injury has not yet healed, the memory of obscene poison still remains, already in the weakest time of the mind, on the contrary, is still in a kind of four-sided plight, no wonder their own a little caring effect seems to be particularly good.

Mu Jian Li’s voice came from outside the door, “Is General Manager Xue available?”

Xue Mu didn’t care that he was naked and soaking in medicine, and even had the intention to tease Mu Jian Li once, so he directly said, “Please come in.”

Mu Jianli pushed the door in and saw Xue Mu soaking in the bath bucket, his bare shoulders exposed, looking at her in a somewhat stunned manner.

Mu Jianli didn’t have much of a reaction to that shoulder, she just didn’t go any further and stood still and calmly said, “Jianli has come here to give her thanks.”

Xue Mu froze and didn’t say anything. It is true that people rely on their clothes, before that, I could only think that Mu Jianli’s temperament was excellent, and in terms of looks alone, she was slightly inferior to Zhu Chenyao. But so wearing a look, and then with the door sprinkled with moonlight, the evening breeze, hair lightly raised, really is like the moon palace Chang’e, beauty is not like words. Even Zhuo Qingqing looked stunned, half speechless.

Martial arts talent is riding high, looks so beautiful, in the end do you want others to live?

Fortunately, there is a patriarch in front of him, otherwise Zhuo Qingqing is afraid to doubt life.

Xue Mu held back for a long time and came out with a sentence, “A big loss ……”

Mu Jianli froze, momentarily puzzled: “Does Chief Xue think Jianli has not repaid the favor?”

Xue Mu stroked his forehead and said, “How can it be so beautiful …… before pretending what saint ah, this is not eaten first, it is really a loss to the old man ……”

“……” Mu Jianli simply pretended not to hear and said, “The Chief Steward stopped my obscene poison, gave me a cure for my injuries, gave me auger meat, and returned the flying light. All of these, Jian Li remembered in my heart, in the future will be to go to the fire, pay off this favor.”

“What’s the point of going through fire and soup, is it bad to give your body in return?”

Mu Jian Li was silent, just when Xue Mu thought she was going to get angry, he heard her say, “Jian Li’s life is only about the sword, why should the Chief Executive make fun of it.”

Xue Mu sighed: “In fact, the sword hilt is really not as comfortable as the man’s thing ……”

Mu Jian Li: “????”

Zhuo Qingqing puffed out a laugh.

“Okay, okay, no more molesting you.” Xue Mu laughed: “Your injuries aren’t good, continue to nurse for a few days, otherwise if you go out and get caught, that would be a real loss.”

Although Mu Jian Li was sharp, she was not reckless, she knew that her current state was not suitable for wandering around in a place like Spirit State where fish and dragons were mixed up, the various sects of the righteous path were now somewhat unfriendly to her, and in isolation, she might have to fall into the hands of some demonic sects, and those people wouldn’t have Xue Mu’s demeanor.

So it was actually Xue Mu who was protecting her at a time when her fellow sects were all treating her poorly? Mu Jianli really didn’t know what kind of emotion this was, and just whispered, “I’m sorry to bother General Manager Xue.”

Returning to her room, Mu Jian Li suddenly felt that this thank you doesn’t make much sense, it’s not like she’s saying goodbye, she’s meeting again, so she’s purposely going to thank him? On the contrary, it seems to be a special past to him to see if the dress looks good, also don’t know what the devil.

Mu Jian Li some headache leaning on the edge of the bed, the bed is soft, very comfortable, the room has smoked incense, light, fresh and pleasant. The bedside is also set with a robe, touching it, I know that it is soft and silky.

Mu Jian Li knew that Luo Qian Xue was not wrong, love of beauty was human nature, the pursuit of comfort was also human instinct, no one would be excluded from this, including herself – she was not a sword after all.

Even to the extent that she would be vaguely affected by Xue Mu’s attention and care, it seemed that what she had lost in others had been made up for.

No matter how you look at it, it was human nature, but she vaguely felt that something wasn’t right, the sword heart alarm bells were ringing, and she always felt that if she continued like this, something would go wrong.

She had a mind to change back into her old clothes, but she didn’t know where. If she said to remove the bedding, it would seem pretentious again, which normal person does this ah.

Mu Jian Li was silent for a long time, finally shook her head, chose not to sleep, and simply went out for a walk.

Walking in the courtyard, the moonlight is like water, the breeze is gentle, surrounded by the fresh scent of flowers and grasses, making one’s mood much more relaxed. The smiling face of Xue Mu shook in her mind, and she was suddenly thinking, Xue Mu is naked and soaking medicine, Zhuo Qingqing is serving at the side, such a relationship …… He finished practicing should be doing that with Zhuo Qingqing, right? Very much in line with the behavior of the Star Moon Demon.

She took this for granted and didn’t think it was wrong, but in her heart she was vaguely curious – Xue Mu really didn’t seem like a lecherous person to her, and couldn’t be equated with the Demon Man of her previous knowledge, so maybe he had a different life at night? What would that be like?

Just as she was thinking this, she heard the door of her room squeak, and Xue Mu came out fully dressed. Seeing Mu Jian Li standing in the center of the courtyard, he seemed to be stunned for a moment, but soon laughed again and said, “The night is long and I have no intention to sleep, I thought that I am the only one who can’t sleep, but it turns out that Miss Mu can’t sleep either.”

Mu Jian Li completely did not understand such a stunt, only felt that it was an ordinary pick-up line, so she shook her head and said, “Jian Li has never had much sleep.”

Xue Mu smiled, seemingly guessing the reason why she didn’t sleep, strolled over and stood beside her, looking at the moon side by side for a while.

He didn’t speak, and Mu Jian Li couldn’t find a topic to open up. Standing side by side like this, let the evening wind blow, moonlight sprinkle, somehow Mu Jian Li slowly began to feel some discomfort.

Standing in the cold wind whistling on top of the snowy mountains can be a few days motionless her, actually stood less than half a tea time began to feel uncomfortable …… brain automatically flashed such words: flowers before the moon.

Just as she wanted to open her mouth to break this silence, Xue Mu spoke first: “You like the color of the moon?”

Mu Jianli was stunned and swallowed back the words she wanted to say, shaking her head, “No, I rarely enjoy the moon.”

“All practicing?”

“All practicing.”

“Tsk ……” Xue Mu sighed: “Road of this life only sword, hear people do not win the desire, but think carefully, that is ignored how much fun in life in exchange for.”

Mu Jian Li faintly said, “Other things, this is also uninteresting.”

“Really?” Xue Mu smiled, “I think you’ve overlooked too much.”

Mu Jianli inclined her head to look at him, and a thought suddenly flooded her mind: he’s discussing the Dao with me?

Is it like those master brothers who came together to talk about the concept of Sword Dao back then? No, it wasn’t the same, those people were throwing themselves at her, while he was the opposite, seemingly wanting to break something.
