In the Crown Prince’s Residence, Jun Wu Xie was taking his pulse. The past few days of treatment had removed most of the toxins in his body and Mo Qian Yuan was feeling much better. His usually pale face now had more colour.

When the Second Prince visit was announced, his face showed a hint of impatience.

“Choosing this time to come, I’m sure he’s up to no good.” Mo Qian Yuan sneered.

The relationship between the two brothers were not harmonious. Mo Qian Yuan’s mother was the Queen while Mo Xuan Fei’s mother was a concubine. After the Queen had passed away, she took over the harem and also became Emperor’s favourite. The Emperor had doted heavily on this concubine although the Queen had passed away and this made Mo Qian Yuan’s heart chill.

Jun Wu Xie pulled her hand that was taking his pulse back as she said: “Now that your recovery is known, some people are afraid and cannot keep still.”

Mo Qian Yuan did not conceal his recovery and this was also specified specifically by Jun Wu Xie.

Who would support a stupid Prince and Lin Palace? He must first re-establish the reputation from the ground up, starting by gaining back the trust from the citizens and the other ministers.

This point was understood well by both Jun Wu Xie and Mo Xian Yuan.

“I’d like to see what he can do to me, the Crown Prince.” Mo Qian Yuan scoffed as his eyes flashed a hint of cold intent. Although the Crown Prince’s position was not stable, the Emperor still needed to ensure his own reputation. Hence he would not do anything radical and even Mo Qian Yuan wouldn’t dare do anything in front of others.

In a few moments, Mo Xuan Fei and Bai Yun Xian strode in leisurely.

In terms of appearance and temperament, Mo Xuan Fei had a high reputation in the whole country, Bai Yun Xian was dressed in white like a fairy, being by his side had complemented this couple as an air of elegance and pride could be felt.

“Imperial Brother, I’ve not seen you for so many days, your complexion looks much better.” Mo Xuan Fei spewed his words out smoothly as he entered and caught a glimpse of Jun Wu Xie which startled him slightly.

Mo Xuan Fei felt a discomfort in his chest, as unhappiness filled it. The number one reason which her looks were never emphasized in the past was because of her terrible temper that had surpassed and overshadowed her appearance.

She had always looked at him with eyes full of admiration and enthusiasm however now her eyes were cold and aloof and what’s more, she didn’t even look his way.

This change in temperament gave a feeling as if she was a totally different person, her ethereal beauty matched her ice cold personality as if she was a snow lotus – pristine,beautiful and unattainable.

Jun Wu Xie also was dressed in white today as she was seated casually on a chair with her bright eyes slightly downcast reading the book in her hands, with no intention to raise her head.

Both were dressed in white, both had cold personalities, both were gorgeous women, but somehow, Mo Xuan Fei actually felt that after seeing Jun Wu Xie, Bai Yun Xian seemed less elegant and stunning.

Jun Wu Xie’s indifference that she exuded was as if the mundane world had nothing to do with her as she sat there quietly, everything about it was so natural, even her sitting her posture was perfect. In contrast, Bai Yun Xian didn’t look that natural although her chin was raised up in an aloof manner, if directly compared with Jun Wu Xie, hers was simply intentional and made it seem less apealing.

Mo Xuan Fei felt that he must be crazy to actually feel more moved when he looked at Jun Wu Xie.

Impossible! This must be an illusion!

Mo Xuan Fei would never admit that his heart had such a thought!

“Thank you for your concern, dear second brother.” Mo Qian Yuan replied in a lukewarm manner. “May I know to what honour renders a visit from you?”

“Hahaha, I’m so happy to hear that you’ve been glowing lately and your whole body had improved recently, so I’m here to present you this Jade Dew Pill which was personally refined by Yun Xian. This can nourish the body, hope Imperial Brother can enjoy its benefits.”

Mo Xuan Fei politely replied with Bai Yun Xian sitting by his side, she placed the bottle of pills on the table.

Mo Xuan Fei said it articulately, but this ‘concern’ came a little late didn’t it?

Jun Wu Xie eyes were downcast all these while, she had not the slightest interest to waste her time with such a small character.

If it was in the past, perhaps Mo Qing Yuan might have felt a little moved to be able to get his hands on pills personally refined by Bai Yun Xian. However, with Jun Wu Xie personally overseeing his body’s conditioning, he could feel that his whole physique had been significantly improved in such a short time. The effectiveness was simply too astonishing! So now, if it was Bai Yun Xian’s pills, or even her Master’s personally refined pills, Mo Qian Yuan would not even waste his effort of giving a weak smile.

In Mo Qing Yuan’s heart, Jun Wu Xie was simply a saint! An unparalleled genius doctor!

“Then I’ll have to thank you.” Mo Qing Yuan however had not made any movement, as he just sat there with no intention of reaching out for the bottle.

Mo Xuan Fei’s face did not look good as he subconsciously looked to Bai Yun Xian, sure enough, his lack of interest in the pills had made Bai Yun Xian unhappy.

“Does his Highness despise this Jade Dew pill which I’ve refined?” Bai Yun Xian suddenly spoke coldly, although the identity of the other party was the Crown Prince, she did not have the slightest humility in her tone.

She is Qing Yun Clan Sovereign’s disciple. No matter where she went, people had always highly respected her and she had never given away anything so easily, usually it was others begging from her. However once she was in State of Qi’s Imperial City, again and again, she had been rebuffed a total of three times! The first time was at Lin Palace where she was rejected by Jun Wu Xie who had outright refused her offer to help. Second time was when they encountered in Ghost City, an ignorant old man showed disdain over her Master’s personally refined elixir and chose a nameless young boy’s medicine over hers! This hit of a series of two times was as if a nail had struck her twice. This had also led to Bai Yun Xian’s haughty self-esteem to be very dissatisfied, and now even the Crown Prince was behaving so perfunctory, as if he completely despised her Jade Dew pill.

This was simply intolerable to Bai Yun Xian, she had high qualifications in medicine, otherwise she would not be received as a disciple of the Sovereign, whether if it was in Qing Yun Clan or elsewhere, everyone had always fawned over her and highly regarded whatever she said.

Now, Jun Wu Xie and Mo Qian Yuan had both hit her sore spot with nails, it made her proud heart feel as though its been stabbed twice.

“Miss Bai, why do you say so? My body presently has no serious issues, I simply do not want to waste this treasure for nothing.” Although Mo Qing Yuan mouth was saying so, but his face had not the slightest expression of sincerity.

Bai Yun Xian gritted her teeth, she was not stupid, how could she not see that Mo Qing Yuan was simply stating a perfunctory remark?

Seeing Bai Yun Xian’s face getting blacker by the minute, Mo Xuan Fei immediately changed the subject, “Imperial Brother’s mood has been very good the past few days, but it’s my duty as your younger brother to remind you that too close contact with someone is not a good thing. All that glitters is not gold, Imperial Brother must not be confused.” When he said that, his gaze naturally fell on Jun Wu Xie.

From the time he has stepped in till now, Jun Wu Xie did not even given him a glance, which made Mo Xuan Fei express his displeasure.

He did not want Jun Wu Xie was one thing, he could not tolerate that haughty attitude she was adopting towards him. That was another matter altogether.

This was something the wretched human heart was like, when Jun Wu Xie’s affection towards him was as deep as the sea, she was completely smitten with him to the point of obsession, he even felt disgusted at one point.

But now that their souls have changed, the current Jun Wu Xie could not even bother putting Mo Xuan Fei in her eyes, the whole day he was thoroughly ignored, indeed, this made Mo Xuan Fei very unhappy.

Mo Xuan Fei thought that after he abandoned Jun Wu Xie, upon hooking up with his new love, she would be busy crying and may even attempt hanging herself, she would be brought to her knees while begging him. Who knew, she acted as though nothing had happened and even worse she treated him as if he was air. What’s more, she further entangled herself with the Crown Prince!

This was completely different from what he had thought!

When he had abandoned Jun Wu Xie, she should have been very heartbroken, how could she be so calm?

Mo Xuan Fei’s words made Mo Qian Yuan’s eyes flash a cold murderous intent.

“Whoever I choose to interact with, younger brother do not need to worry about it.”

Mo Xuan Fei eyes was staring at Jun Wu Xie the whole time, seeing that she had no response, his heart got more irritated as he brazenly retorted, “Imperial Brother has misunderstood, I was worried for Imperial Brother, as a prince, the Crown Prince of our State of Qi, whoever Imperial Brother chooses as a bride must also be able to be a mother to our Nation. Some people may be beautiful, but in reality are not very bright, Imperial Brother does not know her very well yet, I was really worried Imperial Brother would be fooled.”

Mo Qian Yuan was very unhappy, since when did Mo Xuan Fei had the right to come over to the Crown Prince residence and start finding fault at everything? Just as he was about to rebuke Mo Xuan Fei, he discovered that Jun Wu Xie who had kept her head down all these while had suddenly looked up.

A pair of cold eyes with a hint of smile, as if full of mockery looked towards Mo Xuan Fei.

“Is making a fool of oneself very fun?” Jun Wu Xie suddenly spoke up, as she casually glanced at Mo Xuan Fei and Bai Yun Xian.

“What did you say!” Mo Xuan Fei stared incredulously at Jun Wu Xie.

Jun Wu Xie glanced that Jade Dew pill.

“Meow”

Suddenly a black cat jumped on the table, it’s bushy tail inadvertently swept the bottle of pills off.

As the bottle fell, a shattering sound could be heard as a few white pills rolled onto the carpet.

“Jun Wu Xie! Look at what you have done!” Mo Xuan Fei bellowed angrily as he stared fiercely at Jun Wu Zie, Bai Yun Xian’s pills had been ruined!

Jun Wu Xie did not even cast a glance to him, just stared at the little black cat as in jumped onto the carpet. It went over to the exposed white Jade Dew pills and sniffed, but the next second, Jun Wu Xie pulled it back into her embrace.

“Do not eat, it’s dirty.”

Jun Wu Xie’s comment instantly made Bai Yun Xian and Mo Xuan Fei’s complexion turn green.

She actually said that Bai Yun Xian’s refined pills were dirty!

Bai Yun Xian’s face was completely black, she knew who Jun Wu Xie was and also knew the relationship between Mo Xuan Fei and Jun Wu Xie had before. This woman had previously stuck onto Mo Xuan Fei like glue, how dare she say such a thing?

Mo Xuan Fei was about to say something but Bai Yun Xian raised her hand, stopping him.

“Miss Jun.” Bai Yun Xian slowly spoke, her cold voice had a trace of pride and displeasure.

Jun Wu Xie ignored her as she continued fussing over the little black cat and even started brushing it’s fur.

“Although this Jade Dew pill is not a top tier medicine, but also very rare, and now that you’ve ruined the Crown Prince’s pills, don’t you feel that you are too rude?” Bai Yun Xian looked at Jun Wu Xie as though she was an eyesore, Jun Wu Xie was a Missy of Lin Palace, so what? Before her, compared to Qing Yun Clan, Jun Wu Xie was simply nothing!

In front of her, Qing Yun Clan Sovereign’s disciple, let’s see what kind of reply can she give, Bai Yun Xian sneered inwardly.

Jun Wu Xie looked at Bai Yun Xian in a condescending manner, “Rare?” She raised an eyebrow slightly, seemingly focusing on Bai Yun Xian’s Jade Dew pill as she felt a little ridiculous.

What was this attitude?! Bai Yun Xian frowned.

 

“Jun Wu Xie, if you do not understand, do not shamefully say such things! This Jade Dew pill is concocted with Qing Yun Clan’s secret recipe, how many people dream of obtaining it but not able to have it.” Mo Xuan Fei could not resist saying, somehow today’s Jun Wu Xie’s remarks had made him feel somewhat uneasy, even his manner of talking had become somewhat chaotic.

Even if he had abandoned her, she should also continue admiring him in her heart, ignoring him like just now, how could she!

Previously she had fawned all over him and was at his beck and call, she was love stricken and everytime she looked at him, her eyes were filled with admiration. That was all in the past, now she treats him like air, this new contrast made Mo Xuan Fei feel irritable.

“Dream of obtaining it but not able to have it?” Jun Wu Xie just made light of what Mo Xuan Fei had said, as her clear eyes were looking at the pair of adulterers hopping about.

That remark sounded very familiar, when they were in Ghost City, didn’t the crowd also use a similar phase, “many wanted but could not get their hands on” with the Qing Yun pill?

In the end, it was still rejected by other people, well, it was that old man who knew his stuff.

“Meow.” Little black cat nestled comfortably in Jun Wu Xie arms as it looked at the pair of adulterers with disdain.

[Really a disgrace, parading out here like fools when they treat such level of pills as rare pills. My Master makes much better quality pills and much better than that master of yours. So what are you even being so proud of? She can easily outdo your master not to mention you.] Little black cat scoffed as it raised it’s little nose in the air full of pride.

Bai Yun Xian had never been mocked by anyone so directly in her entire life and the other party was just a young missy who did not even have the right to hold her shoes?

“This is Miss Jun despises my pill? But this pill was not given to you, you have damaged the Crown Prince’s medicine, I’m afraid it is not appropriate.” Bai Yun Xian proudly glanced over at Mo Qian Yuan, Lin Palace in the country is certainly powerful, but if compared to Qing Yun Clan, they were like ants, if Mo Qing Yuan was not a fool, naturally he would know what to say.

If Jun Wu Xie were to offend Qing Yun Clan Sovereign’s disciple, this was not a wise choice.

Bai Yun Xian looked over at the couple as she started from Mo Qing Yuan and her gaze eventually rested on Jun Wu Xie.

Bai Yun Xian was right, whoever who had brains knew who to choose out of the two, Mo Xuan Fei was a classic example and he chose Bai Yun Xian.

But……

Mo Qian Yuan sneered, “My things are Wu Xie’s things, what she wants to do with it, I do not mind.” Then he looked at Jun Wu Xie warmly, full of affection in a doting manner.

So what if it’s Qing Yun Clan?

Bai Yun Xian and Mo Xuan Fei are close, this was a well known fact, even if this time he had chosen to support Bai Yun Xian, what could he have gained?

Mo Qing Yuan was not a fool, he knew Jun Wu Xie was his real ally.

Bai Yun Xian’s face appeared a hint of surprise, Mo Qing Yuan was obviously standing on Jun Wu Xie’s side.

Mo Xuan Fei secretly gnashed his teeth, he did not know how Jun Wu Xie and Mo Qing Yuan had hooked up together, they have only met each other a few times? If say love at first sight, it should have been at the instance they had first met. But when Jun Wu Xie and Mo Qian Yuan met was at Mo Qian Yuan’s birthday banquet and at that time she had clearly fancied Mo Xuan Fei, not the Crown Prince! This did not happen too long ago and now they are on such close terms?

First Jade Nectar wine was generously being given to Jun Wu Xie, and now he is directly opposing Bai Yun Xian to protect Jun Wu Xie.

Mo Qian Yuan’s brain is not working? To protect Jun Wu Xie, he was not even afraid of offending Qing Yun Clan ?

“It’s only some medicinal pills.” Jun Wu Xie retorted defiantly, she felt that Bai Yun Xian was very funny, she was making a mountain out of a molehill and kicking up such a fuss.

“It’s only some medicinal pills? The way you’ve put it sounds really easy, do you know how much time and effort Yun Xian had spent making those pills? You spoil your cat and pamper it without even doing anything to it. It was your cat that knocked them off the table and yet you don’t want to account for anything. Imperial Brother has already protected you and said not to pursue the matter any further, I naturally did not say anything, but since when could you make such irresponsible remarks? ” Mo Xuan Fei laughed coldly. Mo Qian Yuan looked at Jun Wu Xie’s indifferent expression face and found her dazzling.
