Chapter 423: Scheming Against Qiaoqiao
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xixia Valley’s Valley Master was taken aback after reading halfway through.
That day, he had also personally seen the little girl brazenly running over to trade numbers with someone else, all to directly confront a Daybreak Sect disciple called Mu Liangde in the arena.
However, today this was?
Duan Yue stared coldly at Mu Liangde.
Yet, Mu Liangde was still all smiles and pretended to not know why everyone was in an uproar.
“Mu Liangde, you weren’t number 82 from the very start, right.” Duan Yue asked coldly.
Without exception, everyone from the Daybreak Sect looked towards Mu Liangde himself in confusion.
The daughter of the sect master, Liang Qingqing, also knitted her brows immediately afterwards. “Mu Liangde, is what Senior Brother Duan Yue said the truth? The number you disclosed at the start was that of the Ghost Faction’s Chou An?”
“Junior Sister Qingqing, I’m not clear about this matter, either!” Mu Liangde smiled and continued to act dumb. He wouldn’t honestly admit that Chou An had looked for him before the feast to discuss this matter.
The two deliberated and thought that since the little girl had mentioned it before, then she would definitely tamper with the results of the draw to make herself Mu Liangde’s opponent.
Chou An wanted to give that little sl*t a surprise, so she secretly told Mu Liangde that she would signal him with her number when they were drawing lots.
If the little girl really came to ask him, he would disclose Chou An’s number to the little girl instead.
Mu Liangde naturally approved with both hands raised. Since he and the little girl were bound to battle, he was rather quite happy for someone to challenge the little girl before him so as to clearly figure out her abilities.
After all, he still slightly panicked on the inside when quite a few people around him looked at him with meaningful gazes.
If the little girl didn’t have some kind of exceptional ability, why would they all use that kind of strange gaze to stare at him one by one?
Chou An’s intentions really clicked with Mu Liangde when she came to look for him to scheme against the little girl. They each took what they needed to achieve their objective.
Qiao Mu was originally bright and intelligent, and after a bit of contemplating, she naturally also understood what Duan Yue could figure out.
Quite good! These jackals of the same lair even learned how to scheme against this miss.
She will let them know that all crafty plots and machinations were not worth a piece of shit before true strength!
Qiao Mu stood up from her seat. Mo Lian gazed frigidly at that Daybreak Sect disciple, Mu Liangde, who was immeasurably self-satisfied on the inside.
A refined and courteous smile still hung on the corner of Mu Liangde’s mouth. Only when his sight met the crown prince’s utterly freezing and intimidating gaze did he involuntarily avert his gaze hastily, while his body slightly shuddered inexplicably.
“Mu Liangde.” When the little girl walked up to the arena, she suddenly turned around and shot her gaze towards the Daybreak Sect’s seating area like lightning. She reprimanded coldly, “Since you want to first observe my abilities, then feel free! I hope that you will have the courage to accept my challenge in the next round. Don’t be such a coward! It’s unsightly!”
Everyone: “…”
Mu Liangde’s expression immediately turned very ugly, looking like it had been brushed over with a layer of green paint.
How was he a coward?
What was this, for even his own sect’s disciples to unexpectedly sweep that kind of slightly contemptuous gaze at him?
Duan Yue scoffed and said, “Mu Liangde, you are a Daybreak Sect disciple and should be very clear on the situation between the Three Sects and Five Factions. It’s not beneficial for you to get close to those from the Ghost Faction. You understand this!”
When Mu Liangde saw the same look from all of his fellow disciples, his heart was so stifled that he almost couldn’t bear it.
He and Chou An merely took what they each needed, but why did Duan Yue’s words make it sound like he had betrayed the sect to collude with the Ghost Faction?
