609 It Is Too Beautiful to Look A (1/2)

Lin Mubai did not speak. His lips trembled slightly though no words came out of his mouth. He also had no intention to stop Cang Yue.

On the other hand, Fang Zhengzhi frowned.

He had no idea what happened between Ping Yang's mother and Lin Mubai. However, he had gotten one important information. Ping Yang's mother seemed to be Cang Yue's master.

Since she was Cang Yue's master, Cang Yue's attitude to Ping Yang was slightly over the top and unreasonable.

Why would Cang Yue, the disciple, want to kill Ping Yang?

Was it because Ping Yang's birth was a mistake? Or was it the legendary sob story of the unwanted bastard child? Both seemed to make sense, though they were far-fetched as well.

Most importantly, Cang Yue clearly came to fetch Ping Yang back to the place called Ling Yun. She was even here on Yu er's orders.

There were too many loopholes in the current story.

Cang Yue was here to fetch Ping Yang. Ping Yang's mother would definitely know about this. Cang Yue might very likely be acting on her orders. If so, no matter how much Cang Yue hated Ping Yang, she could not kill her. How then, was she doing this so brazenly.

This did not make sense.

However, from Cang Yue's expression and speech, she seemed to be unfazed by the fact that people know she wants to kill Ping Yang. She even agreed that she wanted Ping Yang dead in front of Fang Zhengzhi and everyone else.

However, after agreeing to those statements, she claimed to be the messenger to bring Ping Yang back to meet her mother!

This was clearly incoherent.

If Cang Yue had killed Ping Yang without hesitation previously and silenced her, this would have made sense. However, if she were to bring Ping Yang back alive, wouldn't Ping Yang report to her mother about Cang Yue's brazen acts?

After all, if Ping Yang were to meet her mother, there was no way her actions would go unnoticed.

Was she trying to kill Ping Yang along the way?

That was impossible as well.

There was a perfect chance to kill Ping Yang just now. Ping Yang had jumped right in front of Fang Zhengzhi. If Cang Yue had killed Ping Yang then, she could have declared it as an accident.

What exactly was going on?

This was exactly what Fang Zhengzhi thought. Ping Yang seemed to be thinking of the same thing as well.

”Even if I mean nothing to you, I still have the right to not go with you!” Ping Yang shouted with determination. Her eyes glimmered once again with fervor and seemed even more alluring than before, untainted and clear.

”You can reject me. However, I can also bring your corpse with me,” Cang Yue snickered as she stared condescendingly at Ping Yang, as though she was an ant that could be destroyed anytime.

It was truly shocking.

Everyone present, including Yan Qianli, was horrified at Cang Yue's words.

This was because Cang Yue had already revealed her identity.

he was a disciple or a servant of Ping Yang's mother. If that was so, then Ping Yang would still be her young master. How could a servant ever view her young master as an insignificant ant?

Wu Yuer was confused as well. She frowned as she stared at Cang Yue. There had been some instances when the servant was exceptionally rude to the young master.

But there were some conditions attached to it.

One example would be when the master did not actually have a high status in the family. Although this servant may seem to be working for the master on the surface, she was actually serving a higher authority.

However, Cang Yue did not seem like she was from such a family.

She represented Ling Yun.

Others might not know much about Ling Yun, but Wu Yuer was educated. She knew that Ling Yun was a completely different concept from a normal family. Hence, there was no way Cang Yue could have been serving another master.

This was because the servants in Ling Yun were not like the common servants you see in the palace. If Cang Yue had respect for Ping Yang's mother, it could only mean that Cang Yue was a disciple of Ping Yang's mother.

Only a disciple, and more specifically, a blood disciple who had gone through the blood ritual, was allowed to call their teachers as masters, serving alongside them.

In other words, this relationship was self-initiated and completely equal. It was accomplished at the consent of both the disciple and the master. Therefore, there were no grounds and reasons for betrayal.

A disciple that had the utmost respect and unwavering loyalty for her master was now treating the young master with a cold attitude. She had even threatened to kill her off.

This was something incredible no matter how one looked at it.

Fang Zhengzhi clenched his fists. Cang Yue was extremely strong, a lot stronger than what he imagined. She was even stronger than King Xieluo. This opponent was no longer someone he could take on.

However, how could he allow Ping Yang to suffer such humiliation?

”It seems like you want to go for another round?” Cang Yue seemed to have detected Fang Zhengzhi's emotions. She stared at him and said, ”If you truly wish to be dead, I do not mind helping you out. Even if Lin Mubai were to mobilize the entire country, I am not afraid!”

”The things I do have no connection to the Great Xia Dynasty!” Fang Zhengzhi shouted as he stared coldly at Cang Yue. The Traceless Sword appeared in his hands once again as the sinister purple light lit up.

”Fang Zhengzhi, no!” Lin Mubai's voice sounded once again. Following which, he pleaded, ”Cang Yue, even if you go now acknowledge me, Ping Yang is still your young master, you…”

”Shut Up!” Cang Yue interrupted Lin Mubai as she hissed, ”What young master? I have never once believed that I had a young master. If not for your insatiable appetite for power and wealth then, would this have happened?”

”I…” Lin Mubai paled as though he was reminded of a terrifying past. His chest heaved slightly and a mouthful of blood spilled from his lips.

”Your Majesty!” Chen Feihua stared at Lin Mubai with a worried expression as she went forward to support him. Following which, she stared at Cang Yue accusingly while remaining silent.
