The Seven Princesses' Journey Across Time

Chapter 142 Young Man on White Horse Drunk in Spring Breeze 55

Mo Luyi stared at Ye Dingzhi, whose emotions were gradually losing control, and said slowly, "Dingzhi, calm down and listen to me."

Ye Dingzhi tried to calm himself down after hearing what Mo Luyi said. Mo Luyi continued, "Their search for Baili Dongjun this time isn't simply for revenge against Beili. There are probably two reasons for this. One is that they want to use Baili Dongjun to control the military power of the Zhenxi Marquisate. However, the more crucial point is the following..."

She paused for a moment, as if choosing her words, and then continued, "Their leader, Yue Fengcheng, has been practicing the Void Thoughts technique in seclusion since retreating to the Heavenly World, hoping to restore his country. He has been in seclusion for nearly fifteen years and has never been able to come out.

So his men hatched a plan: to capture a person born with a martial vein and send him to the Heavenly Outer Heavens to practice the Void Thoughts Technique. Once this person had mastered it, they would have Yuefeng City devour all the Void Thoughts power they had gained through their practice. In this way, Yuefeng City would be able to break through the bottleneck and reach the supreme realm. Then, they could lead them back and retake their territory, or even overthrow the dynasty. And Baili Dongjun happened to be that one in a million, born with a martial vein!

"And the person who came this time, the one named Zhuge Yun, is two of Yue Fengcheng's five former attendants! Back then, they followed Yue Fengcheng and experienced countless hardships. Today, they can be called peerless masters!"

Upon hearing this, Zhuo Yuean couldn't help but look a little puzzled. "Two of them? So, this so-called Zhuge Yun isn't just one person, but two?"

Yimo Lvyi nodded slightly and said, "They are twins, but usually they only travel as one person when they are outside, so that they can make a feint to the east and attack in the west."

At this moment, Ye Dingzhi suddenly recalled the words his former master had said to him: "I didn't expect you to be born with a martial vein! You are a rare martial arts prodigy!"

Thinking of this, he slowly raised his head, looked straight at Mo Luyi in front of him, and said softly: "Back then, my master also told me the same thing, saying that I was born with a martial vein."

Mo Luyi nodded slightly in agreement, then continued, "Indeed, that's why you must be extra cautious during this school exam. You must not let those with ulterior motives discover your special physique. If you encounter them, you must do everything you can to eradicate them and prevent future trouble. As the saying goes, 'You don't fear thieves stealing; you fear thieves thinking about it.' If they unfortunately discover your innate martial veins, you will probably have trouble in peace.

But don't worry too much. If we're accidentally exposed, we can just go to their lair together and capture them all and completely wipe them out! This time at the academy, Yue An will go to assist you, so just do your best."

Bai Hehuai: "If that little gambling king is not the real little gambling king, then is she also in cahoots with those people?"

Mo Luyi nodded and said, "Yes, they are indeed from the Heaven Beyond Heaven. Moreover, this one's real name is Yue Yao, the eldest daughter of their clan leader Yue Fengcheng. She was originally the eldest princess of Beique and is also the heir apparent."

"So that's how it is." Bai Hehuai suddenly realized.

Ye Dingzhi thought about how Baili Dongjun looked at Yue Yao differently from when he looked at others.

Ye Dingzhi pondered: Could it be that Dongjun knew Yueyao? Or was he simply attracted by her beauty? Why did he look like that? It seemed he had to find a chance to ask him.

Mo Luyi then warned, "Remember, don't take it lightly. The world is in turmoil, and people's hearts are unpredictable. You have to be on guard."

Bai Hehuai, Zhuo Yuean, Ye Dingzhi, and the others all nodded in agreement, indicating they understood what Mo Luyi had said. Mo Luyi then waved her hand, signaling they could leave. The three of them then departed and returned to their own quarters. Once back in their room, they immediately sat together and solemnly began to discuss how to deal with the mysterious group of people who had arrived.

Meanwhile, Mo Luyi sat alone in the room, pondering the next steps. Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind: Aside from Ye Dingzhi and a few others, everyone in Zhuge Yun's group had died tragically! Furthermore, the other two groups' treasure bags were now in their hands. While the plot didn't detail the other two groups' conditions, and perhaps they weren't seriously injured, the information available suggested that these people's wanton slaughter of innocent people had become a daily routine.

The more she thought about it, the more serious the situation seemed. Mo Luyi planned to go to Jixia Academy to remind Li Changsheng, but she thought that Li Changsheng seemed to know something, but perhaps he had lived alone for too long and didn't care much about some things. However, Xiao Ruofeng from Jixia Academy would never stand idly by and watch such a thing.

However, just as she was about to get up and leave, she heard a slight noise behind her. Turning, she saw Zhao Yuzhen, who had been soundly asleep inside, had woken up without her noticing and slowly opened the door and walked out. The little guy, bleary-eyed and a bit hazy, stood unsteadily at the door, trying to muster his energy.

Seeing this, Mo Luyi smiled slightly, waved gently towards Zhao Yuzhen, and called softly, "Yuzhen, come here."

Zhao Yuzhen heard Mo Luyi's words and walked briskly towards her. He rubbed his sleepy eyes as he walked, a look of confusion and curiosity on his face. He asked, "Junior Master, where are you going?"

Mo Luyi tenderly reached out her hand and gently touched Zhao Yuzhen's head. The corners of her mouth lifted slightly, revealing a smile as warm as the spring sun. She softly replied, "Originally, Junior Master, I was planning to go out and do something, but since you, Yuzhen, have woken up, but Mo Yan hasn't, how about this? You come and do this for Junior Master?"

Zhao Yuzhen blinked his bright and clear eyes, thought for a moment, then nodded and said obediently, "Okay! But, Junior Master, what do you want me to do?"

Mo Luyi smiled faintly, took Zhao Yuzhen's hand, and returned to the room together. Once inside, Mo Luyi carefully combed Zhao Yuzhen's slightly messy hair and then carefully straightened his clothes, ensuring the little guy looked neat and presentable. Then, she walked over to the desk, picked up a pen, dipped it in ink, and wrote a letter with flowing strokes.
