Chapter 58 lovey-dovey couple

"Madam, Madam, let’s go, let’s go back to our room. Should we consider making another little brother or sister for Han Yan and Han Feng?" Mu Rui’an said, his voice and expression dripping with playfulness.

"Tsk! You’re so indecent! Dream on! After making Han Yan cry like that, you’re out of luck," Yue Fanling scoffed, turning away.

Mu Rui’an hurriedly followed her, chagrined, "Oh, Madam, you know how much it hurt me, don’t you think I didn’t want it to be like that? I didn’t mean for it."

Yue Fanling gave Mu Rui’an a sideways glance and huffed coldly before walking away. Mu Rui’an quickly followed with a sycophantic smile, almost wagging his tail behind him.

...

After the two had gone far, Mu Hanfeng stepped out from the entrance of the courtyard.

He twitched the corner of his mouth. His father was always a big-tailed wolf in front of his mother. Oh, father, so weak, honestly. But his attitude towards Han Yan was truly terrible, disingenuous in his way of showing care, wasn’t it?

Mu Hanfeng snorted with disdain and turned to leave.

What Mu Hanfeng didn’t know was that at this moment, Mu Rui’an and Yue Fanling had stopped and turned to look towards Mu Hanyan’s courtyard.

"This little brat, growing some tough wings, huh? He even dares to spy on me from the shadows. Don’t think I didn’t see that disdainful look in his eyes. Let’s see how he manages when he gets a wife and keeps her well-behaved!" Mu Rui’an said through gritted teeth.

"What? What do you mean by keeping his wife well-behaved? Say that again." Yue Fanling didn’t like hearing that, her eyebrows cording as she glared at Mu Rui’an.

"Eh? What? My dear wife? What? Where am I? What happened to me? What just happened?" Mu Rui’an blinked his eyes in feigned confusion, outright denying everything.

Yue Fanling couldn’t help but burst into laughter at his act. She reached out and took his hand, their fingers intertwined, and they walked back to their courtyard.

On the way, servants who saw this loving couple couldn’t help but feel exasperated. Lord City Master and the City Lord’s wife were always flaunting their love, blinding everyone with their affection!

Meanwhile, Mu Hanyan had put away the Vessel Cutting Marrow Cleansing Pill and sat cross-legged on the bed, ready to practice cultivation. However, he suddenly smelled blood and then heard Mu Hanfeng’s clear voice, yet his tone was as harsh as ever.

"So now you decide to cultivate? Too late! With your weak self, someone could smack you into the air with a single slap. What were you doing earlier?" Mu Hanfeng stood in front of Mu Hanyan’s window, his face cold.

When Mu Hanyan got a clear look at Mu Hanfeng, he was stunned. Although Mu Hanfeng had deliberately worn black clothes, the blood stains on his body were still visible. He was injured! And severely!

"In two days, you have the match with Mu Feng, and with you like this, you’d just embarrass us. Take this, digest it tonight, so at least you won’t be such an embarrassment!" Mu Hanfeng said annoyedly and tossed a herb onto Mu Hanyan before turning to leave.

Mu Hanyan picked up the herb and froze. It was a Stone Lotus! Consuming it greatly benefits one’s cultivation, and its effects are fast and effective! This herb could only be found deep in the Longyan Mountain range, thousands of miles away from Heishi City. Longyan Mountain, rich in resources but always as dangerous as it is profitable. Without his past life’s experiences, Mu Hanyan wouldn’t have known the difficulties in obtaining the Stone Lotus.

Clearly, the injuries Mu Hanfeng suffered were due to obtaining this Stone Lotus for him! The Stone Lotus was found deep in the Longyan Mountain range, a journey likely fraught with encounters with high-level Exotic Beasts.

Mu Hanfeng had risked his life to get this Stone Lotus for him!
