Chapter 1008: Chapter 619: Greed
Mu Yunbo, who had just come down, noticed Dong Sa was about to lose his temper. He immediately smiled as he walked to the middle of the room, then looked at Dong Sa somewhat surprised and asked, “Xiao Sa, what’s wrong?”
“I… I’m fine.” Dong Sa was about to complain, but after thinking about it, he realized he was the one who started it, so he eventually decided to swallow the matter down.
In his opinion, even if Liu Hun had a master by his side, so what? Once he returns later, he will surely make Liu Hun look bad.
Moreover, no matter how you say it, Liu Hun is considered a guest invited by Mu Yunbo, so if he tells the truth, wouldn’t that be disrespectful to Mu Yunbo?
Although he is usually arrogant in the entire City of Death, he knows where to draw the line with such foolishness.
“Alright then, if nothing’s wrong, let’s have some tea, and we’ll all have dinner together tonight.” Mu Yunbo said with a smile, without asking further.
Some things are understood by everyone; there’s really no need to speak it out loud.
“Uncle Mu, I still have some matters to attend to today, so I won’t keep you company much longer. Another day, Xiao Sa will certainly visit to sincerely apologize.” At this moment, Dong Sa looked somewhat uncomfortable, forcing a slight smile as he spoke to Mu Yunbo.
Upon hearing this, Mu Yunbo nodded and did not say much.
As soon as Dong Sa left, Mu Xiaoqian brought up the tea, and the few people drank tea in the courtyard, appearing rather leisurely and carefree.
“This must be the famous Old Ghost of Yin Mountain, right? I’ve heard the famous name of Old Ghost Brother for a long time. Meeting today, you are indeed extraordinary.” Mu Yunbo said with a slight smile after taking a sip of tea.
For Mu Yunbo to name him immediately, Old Ghost showed no sign of surprise, shook his head, and said to himself, “It’s not like before anymore. I’m just a wandering old thing, luckily being appreciated by the boss, willing to give me food. That’s why I follow the boss around.”
Although Old Ghost’s words seemed self-deprecating, they indirectly indicated his relationship with Liu Hun. Both Liu Hun and Mu Yunbo were slightly surprised by this revelation.
However, no one mentioned it directly.
“Come, since we’re not strangers anymore, come, taste this tea and see how it is.” Mu Yunbo said with a smile.
In an afternoon’s time, there was laughter and conversation among the people. Although during the process, Mu Yunbo tried several times to probe into Liu Hun’s identity, Liu Hun never revealed a word about it.
As for why the Ghost Doctor Clan hadn’t sent anyone yet, Liu Hun was a bit worried at first, but then he dismissed it.
If this time the Ghost Doctor Clan doesn’t send someone, then he wouldn’t mind stirring up some trouble. At that time, the Ghost Doctor Clan would definitely send someone to cause trouble.
In this way, Liu Hun’s purpose would also be achieved.
At dusk, Mu Yunbo treated Liu Hun and Old Ghost to a nice meal and drink. After dinner, Mu Yunbo smiled at Liu Hun and said, “Liu Hun, why don’t you stay here tonight since you’ve just arrived in the City of Death? As your uncle, I should be a good host.”
“Then I’m afraid I’ll be imposing on Uncle Mu.” Liu Hun seemed eager to accept Mu Yunbo’s invitation. If he couldn’t get the support of the Ghost Doctor Clan, making a good connection with Mu Yunbo would not be a bad outcome for the upcoming matters.
“What kind of imposition is that? If Liu Hun is willing, you can stay here as long as you want. Uncle Mu is absolutely delighted to have you. But Uncle Mu still has some matters to handle, so I won’t be able to keep you company much longer.” Mu Yunbo said apologetically to Liu Hun.
“It’s fine, Uncle Mu just go about your business, don’t mind us.” Liu Hun replied with a smile.
After Mu Yunbo left, Mu Xiaoqian directly spoke to Old Ghost, “Senior, I’ll get you a room.”
“That’s alright. I have a friend coming over tonight to invite me for drinks, so you two rest early. I probably won’t be back tonight,” Old Ghost laughed, his eyes carried a mischievous glint as he glanced at the two of them.
Soon after, Old Ghost turned and walked out of the house, intending to handle the matter with Dong Sa. Otherwise, it might disrupt Liu Hun’s itinerary and plans.
Once Old Ghost left, only Liu Hun and Mu Xiaoqian were left. Remembering her father’s words from noon, asking Liu Hun to sleep in her room seemed hard for her to say as a girl.
“Miss Mu, where should I sleep tonight?” Liu Hun blinked and curiously asked Mu Xiaoqian.
If Liu Hun still didn’t understand Mu Yunbo and his daughter’s intentions after their deliberate departures, he really would be a fool.
“You can sleep wherever you want.” Mu Xiaoqian bit her lip gently, hesitated, and then said to Liu Hun in a low voice.
“How about I sleep in your room?” Liu Hun suddenly said to Mu Xiaoqian.
“You…” Mu Xiaoqian was stunned for a moment upon hearing Liu Hun’s words.
“Your father left the time and room for us, didn’t he want to see the two of us, you know, do something? This is perfect. Anyway, I have time tonight, and if I miss tonight, I might leave the City of Death.” Liu Hun said softly, squinting at Mu Xiaoqian.
Seeing Mu Xiaoqian’s face looking somewhat pale, Liu Hun ignored everything else and went straight upstairs, opening rooms one by one to look. Finally, he stepped into a room decorated in pink, washed up briefly, and lay under the covers.
As Mu Xiaoqian entered the room and saw Liu Hun lying boldly on her bed, the thought of killing him surged in her mind.
But her father’s orders, she had no choice but to obey.
“Xiaoqian, although last time we had a brief romantic encounter, I fell for you at first sight. Besides, isn’t your father pleased with this outcome? So what are we waiting for?” Liu Hun looked at Mu Xiaoqian standing at the door hesitating to come in, walked over barefoot, gently grabbed her small hand, and said with a mischievous smile.
In the instant Liu Hun grabbed her hand, Mu Xiaoqian shivered all over. Just as she was about to get angry, she suddenly found her body unable to move.
“You… what did you do to me?” Mu Xiaoqian’s beautiful eyes carried a hint of shock as she stared at Liu Hun and questioned him.
“Nothing, just tapped your acupoints so you wouldn’t feel awkward.” With that, Liu Hun directly lifted Mu Xiaoqian horizontally and gently placed her on the bed.
As Liu Hun pressed his body gently on hers at close range, Mu Xiaoqian shut her eyes lightly as if accepting fate.
Faced with Mu Xiaoqian’s acceptance, Liu Hun wouldn’t hesitate. Such a good opportunity was something he wouldn’t miss, especially because it also allowed him to enhance his strength; why wouldn’t he seize it?
Soon, Liu Hun peeled off Mu Xiaoqian’s clothes layer by layer. Looking at her exquisite and perfectly proportioned body, Liu Hun couldn’t help but swallow hard.
At this moment, Mu Xiaoqian was different from last time, when she was under the influence of Hehuan Powder, losing herself in desire. But this time, she was completely conscious, which made her feel particularly ashamed. However, she clearly knew her destiny; even if Liu Hun hadn’t appeared this time, she would eventually marry Dong Sa—though she felt nothing for either of them, Liu Hun had saved her life before.
Moreover, they had a brief romantic encounter; at this moment, Mu Xiaoqian could only comfort herself like this.
As a faint sigh escaped from Mu Xiaoqian’s nostrils, soon the room was filled with deep and melodious sounds.
Two hours later, Liu Hun lay covered in sweat beside Mu Xiaoqian, and the acupoint restriction on her was already undone.
Mu Xiaoqian turned her back to Liu Hun while Liu Hun gently embraced her, his hands roaming over her skin as white as jade.
“Xiaoqian, I sometimes don’t quite understand why your dad values me so highly? Though we have a brief romantic encounter, would your father really give you to me so easily?” Liu Hun teased Mu Xiaoqian softly as he whispered to her.
“Do you really know Dual Cultivation Technique?” With Liu Hun’s words still hanging in the air, Mu Xiaoqian suddenly turned around and looked seriously at him.
“Yes, is that surprising?” Liu Hun nodded, holding nothing back.
Considering Dual Cultivation Technique, even if Liu Hun wanted to hide it, he couldn’t; Mu Xiaoqian could feel the changes in her body.
“Since that’s the case, let’s do it again.” Mu Xiaoqian said, flipping over onto Liu Hun.
Facing Mu Xiaoqian exuding endless charm, Liu Hun was dumbfounded; he never expected Mu Xiaoqian to have such a wild side.
For Mu Xiaoqian, if something couldn’t be avoided, she might as well gain some benefits from it. If she could enhance her cultivation, it wouldn’t be a bad thing.
Another hour later, Mu Xiaoqian appeared somewhat exhausted, then lay on Liu Hun, gently closing her eyes.
“Xiaoqian, do you think I’m really bad?” Liu Hun suddenly asked Mu Xiaoqian.
“Compared with Dong Sa, at least your wickedness is apparent. If it weren’t for you this time, I would have been destined to marry Dong Sa. So towards you, I don’t feel too repulsed.” Mu Xiaoqian responded honestly to Liu Hun.
Upon hearing Mu Xiaoqian’s words, Liu Hun couldn’t help but show a bitter smile, shook his head, and said to himself, “He is a young master, naturally. But I’m different; wanting something means working hard for it. Although our meeting was coincidental, I would still choose without hesitation again. With the Mu Family’s support, perhaps my upcoming plans would be much easier.”
“What… what are you planning exactly?” At this moment, Mu Xiaoqian suddenly looked up, glaring coldly at Liu Hun.
If Liu Hun dared to make plans against the Mu Family, she definitely wouldn’t let him off.
“If I can later resolve matters with the Ghost Doctor Clan and gain their recognition, I will tell you about certain things. You can rest assured I don’t intend harm to the Mu Family because this concerns your family’s and the entire City of Death’s future fate!” Liu Hun spoke with a serious expression.
Mu Xiaoqian stared fixedly at Liu Hun’s expression for a long while before once again resting her head on his chest, not speaking anymore.
She believed Liu Hun neither had the courage nor the strength to confront the Mu Family, but the matter concerning the Ghost Doctor Clan piqued her interest.
