“So?” Su Ruoxi asked, feeling speechless.
“Mother, we were incredible! That old man was poisoned by me!” Her baby boasted as she counted the treasures.
“Cough, Master, I lost that thing!” Su Su admitted, feeling a little embarrassed.
“See what I said!” Su Ruoxi commented as she blinked toward Xuemo.
“I say, Su Su, you are so done for! You actually lost the token!” Ling Xuemo looked towards Su Su and commented in disbelief.
“Beautiful Xuemo, I didn’t do it on purpose! Don’t worry, I will go and find that old man tomorrow and get your token back from him ok?” Su Su wheedled as she pulled on Ling Xuemo’s sleeves.
“Just forget about it! Hurry back with me, and deal with your problems tomorrow by yourself! Ling Xuemo barked as she rolled her eyes surly.
Maybe this rascal did it on purpose. She kept losing the token that symbolized her identity as a member of the Pavilion of the Assassins so easily, and she kept getting into trouble so easily too…
She did enjoy playing with the people who sought trouble for themselves when she was bored. But now, she really wanted to stay beside Master…
“Enough, you two, hurry back! Go and make sure that the Pavilion of the Assassins is not already torn down by others, or I will deduct your wages!” Su Ruoxi warned as she looked towards the two of them.
“Deduct all you want! Anyway, we are not planning to marry so we don’t need a dowry!” The two beauties declared in unison.
“Aunty Su, Aunty Mo, it can’t be that you two are lesbians, right?” Baby Su raised her head from the pile of treasures, looked towards the two of them, and asked inquisitively.
“Baby, we are definitely not lesbians! Master, don’t miseducate little children!” Ling Xuemo responded as she looked at Su Ruoxi in disbelief.
If it wasn’t for the fact that they had been with Su Ruoxi for so long already, they really would have no idea what a lesbian was. Because of Su Ruoxi, they had learned many modern phrases, and lesbian was one of them…
The two of them continued playing with her baby for a while before leaving the inn with much reluctance…
A silent night.
The next day, after Su Ruoxi brought her baby to eat their breakfast, both Mo Lian and Mo Ye appeared in their room…
“Not bad, the two of you. Your skills have improved!” Su Ruoxi looked towards the two of them and praised them.
“Master, please don’t make fun of us! If it wasn’t for your elixirs, we would have been so much weaker than now!” Mo Lian said as she looked at Su Ruoxi with gratitude.
Mo Lian, female, 28 years old, at Purple Mystique Beginner Level…
Mo Ye, male, 35 years old, at Purple Mystique Intermediate Level…
The two of them were married. Three years ago, when they were chased after by enemies, they were rescued by Su Ruoxi, who was just passing by. The two of them had no background, no family, and no power. In contrast, their enemies were too formidable. The two of them ended up asking if they could stay beside Su Ruoxi…
Upon seeing their persistence, Su Ruoxi could only let them stay beside her and observe them in the meantime. She did not expect that afterward, the poison in Mo Ye’s body would suddenly be triggered, resulting in his meridians being blocked, turning him into a handicapped person…
The two of them did not want to be a burden to Su Ruoxi. Hence, when Su Ruoxi was not taking notice, both of them attempted suicide by consuming poison…
Who knew that three days later, the two of them who should have been dead, were not only alive once more, but the poison in their body was also cleared, and they had become more powerful as well…
Since then, the two of them made up their minds to forget about revenge, swore full allegiance to Su Ruoxi, and recognized Su Ruoxi as their master. Normally, when there were no missions, they would both be cultivating in the Pavilion of the Assassins…
Mo Lian was dressed in a long blue dress adorned with floral designs. Even though she was not a peerless beauty, she was still modestly beautiful. Her hair was loosely pinned up at the top of her head, making her seem a little like a personal handmaiden…
Whereas Mo Ye only had to stand aside for people to recognize him as a competent guard! Dressed in a black cloth, the expression on his handsome face was stern, if not a little cold. Only when he was looking at Mo Lian or Su Ruoxi, would his eyes flash with a little emotions…
Even Mo Lian and Su Ruoxi were a little taken aback upon witnessing Mo Ye’s unusually gentle expression when he first saw Su Ruoxi’s baby! They could only admit that her baby was capable of melting the heart of anyone regardless of their gender or age…
In fact, what they didn’t know was that Mo Ye had always wished for Mo Lian to bear him a child! However, because Mo Lian was too heavily injured when they were running from their enemies, she was no longer fertile…
With regards to this, even if Su Ruoxi was a Master Physician, there was nothing she could do to help them…
In the past, Mo Lian was once saddened by this for a period of time. Fortunately, she was strong. She had once told Mo Ye that if he ever wished to have a child in the future, he could take another wife, and she would not blame him for it. As such, Mo Ye swore an oath right in front of Mo Lian that if he ever married another woman, he shall be reduced to ashes…
In this world, the oaths were protected by the Rules of Heaven and Earth. If one was unable to fulfill what he swore, he would have to bear the consequences as mentioned in his oath. This meant that once Mo Ye showed interest in another woman, or married another woman, even if Mo Lian was fine with it, the Rules of Heaven and Earth would erase Mo Ye from this world…
Upon knowing the deal with oaths in this world, Su Ruoxi secretly felt that if only oaths in the modern world were also so powerful, then there would be much fewer pining lovers…
“Uncle Ye, have you been to the Prince’s mansion?” Her baby asked while sitting on Mo Ye’s shoulders.
“I haven’t!” Mo Ye tried to make his tone as gentle as possible.
“Let me tell you a secret. The people in the Prince’s mansion used to bully Mother. I am going to take revenge for Mother!” Her baby whispered quietly beside Mo Ye’s ears.
Behind them, Su Ruoxi and Mo Lian felt like laughing upon seeing this scene.
“Master, there is something that I forgot to tell you. I heard that the Emperor issued a decree to bestow a marriage on the Second Miss of Mo’s mansion. She is to become the crown princess. The Prince’s mansion should be in chaos right now! After all, Su Ruolin is a prodigy, how can she marry that fool of a Crown Prince?” Mo Lian said.
“Bestow a marriage? Why would he suddenly bestow a marriage on the Crown Prince?” Su Ruoxi asked curiously.
The Crown Prince of the Kingdom of the Heavenly Phoenix, Su Feng, was born a fool. However, as he was the legitimate son of the Empress, and was backed by a power—the Empress Dowager’s cognates, he was able to secure his position as the Crown Prince…
Anyway, since the people in this world could cultivate, as long as their capability kept leveling up, it would be easy for them to live up to hundreds, or even thousands of years. Basically, all the emperors in the imperial family abdicated in favor of the next in line for the throne and went to cultivate in seclusion, hidden from the rest of the world…
The matter of when the Crown Prince could succeed the throne was not important at all. Hence, even if the Crown Prince was a fool, nobody commented on it! At most, the Emperor could refuse to abdicate until a suitable successor was found…
“I’m not sure. It was said that some noble figures offered the Empress some guidance in her dream—that the Crown Prince’s foolishness may be cured if he was married. Hence, the Emperor issued a decree to bestow a marriage on the Second Miss of the Prince’s mansion, Su Ruolin!” Mo Lian answered truthfully.
“Haha, this is a little interesting! Letting Su Ruolin marry a fool is not enough for her!” Su Ruoxi said, feeling that it was somewhat a pity.
“Master, this time when we return, shall we make them…” Mo Lian’s eye flashed with coldness as she motioned her finger across her neck.
“We’ll see then! No matter what, I will not let any of them get away with this!” Su Ruoxi replied without any expression. She was not a kind and weak girl. None of those that owed her should expect an easy life…
