Chapter 18: 18

After Ming Xiu left, Lou Mu Yan looked around and spread her Mental Energy to investigate her surroundings. After confirming that there wasn’t any danger, she leapt up onto a tall, thick tree and hid herself entirely amongst the leaves to rest and recover her strength.

When the first ray of sunlight scattered on the Blazing Mountain Range early the next morning, Lou Mu Yan opened her eyes and stretched lazily, her tiny face no longer pale.

After taking the Spiritual Energy Replenishing Pill, she certainly felt energised and after a whole night of absorption, she actually felt she stored a trace of Spiritual Energy. It gave her another layer of guarantee for walking out of the outer ring safely.

“I wonder what happened to Ye Qing Han, I should go check the agreed location.” Lou Mu Yan stood up as she muttered to herself, then leapt off the branch and dashed in the northwest direction using her Flash Steps.

She had an agreement with Ye Qing Han that if they accidentally separated, they would wait for each other at one of their resting areas just outside of the outer ring. If there was no news after ten days, then they could return to the Imperial Capital themselves.

Until now, including the time she was trapped in the underground cave, it had only four days, so she believed that as long as Ye Qing Han wasn’t in danger, then he was probably already waiting in that area.

After every few sections she travelled, she stopped to check her map. She was glad she bought this map, otherwise she would really be lost.

In the afternoon, she approached the agreed place, but she didn’t appear immediately. Instead, she slowly crept over with vigilance.

When she arrived, she discovered that there was only Ye Jing and no shadow of Ye Qing Han and the others. She sneered, narrowed her eyes, then walked over.

Ye Jing was sitting beneath a tree and was very displeased. Because of that trash Lou Mu Yan, who fell into the crevices of the Flame Unicorn Beast’s lair, their return to the Imperial Capital was delayed.

Now the Young Lord was searching for Lou Mu Yan with the others and even told her to stay and wait. She had enough. A ferocity flashed in her eyes—if Lou Mu Yan dared to appear, she would kill her first.

“Lou Mu Yan.” Ye Jing was just thinking about how to kill Lou Mu Yan when she felt a presence walking towards her. When she glanced back, she discovered Lou Mu Yan exiting the forest not far away.

It wasn’t that Lou Mu Yan didn’t see the killing intent in Ye Jing’s eyes, but she didn’t pay attention to such a small character. She had never provoked this woman, but she discovered that Ye Jing had killing intent towards her early on.

She was a person who didn’t like to leave roots to grow into future trouble. Since the other person was so vicious, then she wouldn’t be merciful either.

“Where’s Ye Qing Han?” Lou Mu Yan ignored Ye Jing’s ferocious glare as if she wanted to gobble her up, and slowly walked over while asking.

Ye Jing sneered: “Isn’t it all because of you, trash. Just because you fell into that crack, Young Lord took the rest to look for you, and completely delayed our return to the Imperial Capital.”

Lou Mu Yan chuckled softly, but there wasn’t any warmth in her eyes. She folded her arms, raised her eyebrows, and asked: “Then what do you want to do?”

“Of course to kill you.” Ye Jing didn’t conceal it either, then sneered: “You delivered yourself here, trash.”

“You think you can kill me?” Lou Mu Yan’s lips overflowed with a devilish smile, “Let’s see who dies first.”

“Humph, you’re deliberately pretending to be mysterious.” Ye Jing knew that Lou Mu Yan had a very fast type of skill, so before she even finished her words, she drew her sword, channelled her Elemental Energy into it, raised her hand and slashed. Several sharp sword auras attacked Lou Mu Yan directly.

Lou Mu Yan was prepared for this, so she moved to the left nonchalantly, avoiding those sharp sword auras. Her eyes deepened, then she swiftly dodged to avoid each and every single one of the sword auras Ye Jing slashed towards her.

Then she took out a dagger and utilised her Flash Step to the fastest speed she could control, and with a flash, she arrived directly behind Ye Jing. Before the latter could even react, she pierced the dagger directly into her heart.

Lou Mu Yan’s movements were swift, clean, and neat. Only a short amount of time passed since their conversation to the fight, and Ye Jing, a Middle-Phase Great Sword Master, was instantly killed by her.

Ye Jing widened her eyes and turned her head in disbelief at the indifferent Lou Mu Yan. She never thought that this trash that she thought she could easily kill had such assassination skills.  

She miscalculated, but she was the one who first wanted to kill, so even if she regretted now it was useless.

Her pupils gradually lost focus and regret rose on Ye Jing’s face as she slowly slipped to the ground until she took her last breath.  

Lou Mu Yan took out a handkerchief and wiped the dagger in her hand. This was a Middle-Quality Spirit Tool gifted to her by her father. Using it enabled her to easily break Ye Jing’s defence. She didn’t like to kill, but she wouldn’t let go of those that wanted to kill her.

Just like people similar to Ye Jing. They didn’t actually have any deep hatred at all, yet the other party repeatedly violated her baseline. Then how could she be merciful?

After the dagger was wiped clean, Lou Mu Yan put it back in her interspatial ring. Her fingers loosened and the bloodied handkerchief floated on to Ye Jing’s corpse. Her eyes were cold as she glanced at the corpse indifferently, “You were too careless.”

Yes, Ye Jing was too careless—she wasn’t guarded against her at all, that’s why Lou Mu Yan succeeded so easily. If Ye Jing used all the strength of a Middle-Phase Great Sword Master, then with Lou Mu Yan’s current cultivation base, it would take a lot more effort to kill Ye Jing.

Lou Mu Yan retracted her gaze and went to sit beneath a large tree a little further away, closing her eyes to rest. She didn’t deal with Ye Jing’s corpse—to her, if she killed a person like her, then she killed them. There wasn’t anything to explain to Ye Qing Han.

Half a day later, the sound of urgent footsteps came from the forest. Lou Mu Yan could tell that it was the steps of Ye Qing Han and his subordinates. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Ye Qing Han standing not far away, looking at her with delight.

“Qing Han, you guys have come.” Lou Mu Yan said with a smile.

Ye Qing Han walked over to her quickly and sighed in relief, saying: “That’s great, you’re fine.”

“I said that Mu Yan was a lucky person with good fortune, and that she would definitely be fine. Young Lord, do you believe it now?” Seeing that Lou Mu Yan was fine, Old Lu’s hovering heart finally settled back in place.

They cared about Lou Mu Yan’s life and death not just because of the treatment, but also because they truly acknowledged Lou Mu Yan as a person after the time they spent together, so they didn’t want anything to happen to her.

Lou Mu Yan’s eyes were dyed with a layer of warmth. Ye Qing Han was the first genuine friend she made here, and Old Lu wasn’t that bad either. She could tell that their care for her wasn’t feigned, so she smiled like a flower: “I’m fine.”

“Huh? How’d Ye Jing die?” A young man under Ye Qing Han looked at Ye Jing’s body in surprise.

Lou Mu Yan glanced in that direction, lifted her eyes, and said indifferently to Ye Qing Han: “I killed her.”

Ye Qing Han frowned, then looked at Ye Jing in disgust. Even though he hadn’t spent a lot of time with Lou Mu Yan, but he knew the sort of temperament she had. It must’ve been Ye Jing who offended Lou Mu Yan first, so she suffered death.

“She attacked first?”

“Yeah. She wanted to kill me, so I killed her.” Lou Mu Yan shrugged. She was a little touched by Ye Qing Han’s trust—she definitely recognised him as a friend now.

Ye Qing Han revealed some coldness in his eyes. This Ye Jing sure was bold. Not only did she defy his orders, but she even wanted to kill Lou Mu Yan. It was unforgivable. Even if Lou Mu Yan didn’t kill her, when he returned, he would throw her to the Criminal Law Division and charge her for espionage.

“Let’s rest for the night and return to the Imperial Capital tomorrow.” Ye Qing Han said with weariness as he smiled at Lou Mu Yan.

Lou Mu Yan also knew that they had spent a lot of energy searching for her, so she nodded with a smile: “Sure!”
