There Would Come a Time When She Beat Him Until He Cried

Such a man was as noble and elegant as a snow lotus on the Heavenly Mountains!

He was also like the radiant moon descending upon the world, making all things bow before him, yet at this moment, he merely gazed earnestly at the person in his arms.

As though she were the most precious treasure of his life!

After Jun Ling had cleaned Mu Yunxi up, dressed her, and walked out of the cave.

His already jade-like skin was even paler, and his aura was so weak that he looked as though he might collapse at any moment.

"Master, are you all right?"

Mo Li stepped forward, looking at Jun Ling with a face full of worry. He wanted to help support him, but remembered his master's aversion to being touched and forcibly held himself back.

"I'm fine!"

Jun Ling spoke mildly, an air of cold detachment surrounding him.

"Master, you know perfectly well what condition your body is in, yet you still..." This time, Mo Yan was somewhat displeased as well.

Looking at Jun Ling's deathly pale face, he was worried.

His master's condition was already dangerous. An episode struck almost every full moon, and that was when his body was at its weakest.

Previously, he had still had the Heavenly Demon Pearl, but now both the Heavenly Demon Pearl and the Ten-Thousand-Year Azure Dragon Ginseng were gone!

He had even helped the young madam assimilate the power released by the Heavenly Demon Pearl inside her, bringing on an episode ahead of time.

Mo Yan was truly worried that one day, his master might even throw away his life for the young madam!

"Mo Yan, take me away. Mo Li, guard her. Once she wakes up, stay close and protect her!"

Jun Ling gave Mo Li his orders coldly.

"Yes, your subordinate obeys!"

Mo Li nodded.

"After she wakes up, tell her there is no Demon Emperor Grass or blood of a hundred poisons in the Mystic Heaven Demon Forest. Have her go to the Ghost Market, and tell Mo Huang to receive her properly!"

"But Master, the Ghost Market doesn't have any Demon Emperor Grass or blood of a hundred poisons either!"

Startled, Mo Li could not help frowning.

"If I say it does, then it does!"

Jun Ling cast Mo Li a cold glance, then let Mo Yan take him away.

The following day, Mu Yunxi woke up ravenous.

She moved her aching body, which felt as though it had been crushed beneath something. Her expression instantly sharpened, and she abruptly sat up from the ground.

Looking down, she let out a small breath of relief. Fortunately, her clothes had been put neatly in order, but apart from herself, there was no sign of Jun Ling in the cave.

Mu Yunxi's gaze instantly darkened. That damned bastard had devoured her whole, yet he had actually run away!

The next instant, a furious roar erupted from the cave, startling Mo Li, who was hiding in a tree, so badly that he nearly fell out.

"You damned pervert! I'll never coexist with you!"

With a bang, the furious Mu Yunxi suddenly lashed out with a palm strike at the cave's stone wall.

The entire stone wall actually came crashing down just like that, leaving Mu Yunxi momentarily stunned.

Then wild delight surged through her heart. Ignoring her aching body, she struck out with another palm.

Boom-!

Another tremendous crash rang out, and Mu Yunxi's eyes were filled with disbelief.

Initial-stage Grand Martial Master!

She had woken up an initial-stage Grand Martial Master?

Mu Yunxi looked utterly dumbfounded!

After tidying herself up and leaving the cave, she swept her icy gaze coolly toward a certain large tree and barked in a low voice.

"Get the hell out here already!"

Suddenly hearing Mu Yunxi's voice, Mo Li froze. He had apparently not expected this woman to be so perceptive that she would detect his presence the moment she left the cave.

His figure flashed, and Mo Li landed respectfully before Mu Yunxi.

Before he could steady himself, a dark blur suddenly shot toward him. Unable to dodge in time, he took a solid punch.

"That punch was for your master. You'd better tell him he'd best never show his face before me again, or there'll come a time when I beat him until he cries!"

Radiating an overbearing air, Mu Yunxi looked at Mo Li and coldly vented her anger.

Poor Mo Li had taken the blame for his master just like that. Not only had he taken a solid punch, but he had also ended up with a panda eye and a battered face. Truly miserable!

"This subordinate greets the young madam. I will be sure to convey your words!"

Nevertheless, Mo Li still bowed respectfully to Mu Yunxi.

That address of "young madam" made Mu Yunxi's foot slip, and she nearly missed her step.

Young madam? What the hell was that!

"Then get lost!"

"Master ordered this subordinate to ensure the young madam's safety!"

"What else did your master tell you to do?"

Mu Yunxi looked coldly at the icy-faced Mo Li.

"Master said there is no Demon Emperor Grass or blood of a hundred poisons in the Mystic Heaven Demon Forest, but the Ghost Market in the capital has them!"

The moment Mo Li spoke, Mu Yunxi burst out cursing!

"Fuck! If there's no Demon Emperor Grass or blood of a hundred poisons in the Mystic Heaven Demon Forest, why didn't that damned pervert say so earlier!"

He had made her wander aimlessly around here for nothing!

Mo Li pressed his lips together. He had originally wanted to tell Mu Yunxi that it was because his master had feared the Heavenly Demon Pearl's aura spilling out on the night of the full moon would attract unnecessary trouble!

But on second thought, he kept his mouth shut!

Mu Yunxi gave Mo Li a cold glance, could not be bothered with him, and headed out of the Mystic Heaven Demon Forest.

Since the Demon Emperor Grass and blood of a hundred poisons were at the Ghost Market, she could simply go straight there!

"Young madam, wait!"

"What is it?"

Mu Yunxi frowned in displeasure at the way Mo Li addressed her and asked coldly.

"How does the young madam intend to dispose of those two scumbags' corpses?"

"Mu Yunkai and Mu Yunyi?"

Only now did Mu Yunxi remember that she had been fighting Mu Yunkai before her episode struck.

"Yes. Master had us chop them up!"

"So be it. I never intended to let them live anyway. Throw them into the rooms of the Mu Clan's eldest and third masters for me!"

Mu Yunxi smiled coldly, a gust-like sneer flashing in the depths of her icy eyes.

She wondered what expressions Mu Zhenxiang and Mu Zhenhong would wear when they saw that their most beloved sons had been chopped up!

"Yes, your subordinate obeys!"

With that, Mo Li's entire figure vanished from sight.

The Ghost Market.

The largest underground trading and auction center in the Eastern Tomb Kingdom's capital.

It contained all manner of rare treasures, great and small, pills, magical artifacts, and martial techniques. As long as you had money, you could buy them all here.

Yet precisely because of this, prices in the Ghost Market rose like boats on a rising tide, reaching terrifying heights.

Because alchemists were so scarce, a single heaven-defying pill could sell for tens of thousands of gold coins!

After leaving the Mystic Heaven Demon Forest, Mu Yunxi headed straight for the Ghost Market. She had only just reached its entrance when someone stopped her.

"Stop! Who are you? You can't enter without a token!"
