He Was Here

In mere moments, news of the Eastern Tomb Kingdom's fourth prince being impotent had spread through every street and alley.

Inside the Fourth Prince's residence.

Xuanyuan Jin looked at the letter of divorce Qing Pu had retrieved, his face turning livid with rage. With a bang, he slammed it down on the table.

"Damn you, Mu Yunxi! You dared ruin my reputation. You're courting death!"

Xuanyuan Jin's eyes brimmed with malice and fury, dark and sinister.

"Fourth Prince, shall I go kill that shameless woman?" Qing Pu asked grimly.

"Wouldn't killing her only confirm that this prince is impotent? I'd like to see what else that trash can pull off. What about the treasure pavilion? Have you checked it? Did she really take nothing?"

Xuanyuan Jin raised his head and asked coldly.

"That trash did come out empty-handed, but I've already ordered the guards to check again. We should hear something soon."

No sooner had Qing Pu finished speaking than a guard rushed in through the doorway, his face deathly pale.

"F-Fourth Prince, s-something terrible has happened! The treasure pavilion-the treasure pavilion is empty!"

"What?"

At the guard's words, Xuanyuan Jin's expression grew terrifyingly dark. With a sweep of his sleeve, he strode out of the reception hall toward the treasure pavilion at the rear.

When he saw the utterly empty treasure pavilion, even Xuanyuan Jin could not help the twitch at the corner of his mouth. Veins bulged on his furious face!

All gone?

A whole roomful of things, all gone? How was that possible? Hadn't they said that trash was empty-handed? Damn it, that trash had actually played him!

"How could this happen?"

Even Qing Pu, who had hurried after him, was startled at the sight of the empty treasure pavilion, his face full of disbelief.

How could that little trash possibly have emptied the entire treasure pavilion? This was far too frightening!

"It's all my fault. Please punish me, Fourth Prince!" Knowing that things had gone terribly wrong, Qing Pu immediately dropped to his knees and begged for mercy.

"Damn you, Mu Yunxi!"

This time, Xuanyuan Jin was utterly driven mad with rage, letting out a furious roar through gritted teeth.

That trash had not only made him the laughingstock of all East Ling, but had emptied his treasure pavilion too. Good. Very good indeed!

Having already returned to the General's residence, Mu Yunxi was in an exceptionally good mood. After having the maids prepare her bathwater, she settled in for a comfortable soak.

Thinking of how thoroughly she had screwed over that damned stone-faced man today, and how he was probably stamping his feet in fury because of her right now, she could not stop smiling.

Amid the curling steam, Mu Yunxi felt so thoroughly at ease that she could not help closing her eyes for a light doze.

Suddenly, something in the air stirred faintly. Mu Yunxi's cold eyes snapped open, a keen blade's gleam shooting from them!

"Who's there? Get out here!"

Mu Yunxi barked sharply.

Her entire body leaped out of the water, the splashes she sent flying scattering to conceal her shapely figure. In the next instant, a loose outer robe was already draped over her.

When Mu Yunxi looked again, an icy, unrestrained silver figure, domineering and dangerous, had appeared in the room at some unknown moment, descending from above like a specter from the netherworld. Those dark, unfathomable black eyes were fixed on her.

A suffocating sense of extreme danger emanated silently from him!

At the sight of that silver figure and that silver mask she could not have known more intimately, Mu Yunxi felt the frenzied fury and savage killing intent within her entire body pour out in an instant!
