Chapter 3579: 4.1179 Hard to Discern Intentions

Dan Yi Su, somewhat exasperated, pursued him, and without a second thought, she flung out a handful of medicinal powder, letting it drift directly into the stone door.

Prince Mo Lian was instantly enraged. Others were attacking him, and although he didn't know what kind of powder this woman was throwing, it clearly wasn't anything good.

So, Mo Lian simply raised a hand, and a surge of black flames shot out towards the stone door. As the stone door heavily fell into place, he only heard half a scream from Dan Yi Su. Immediately, the sound was completely muffled by the falling stone door.

This damned woman got off easy!

Mo Lian was seething with anger. He took a few steps back, then lowered his head to check his body. Fortunately, he was always cautious. The moment he saw the woman chasing him, he immediately activated his defensive spiritual artifact. With the defensive barrier in place, no matter what kind of poisonous powder that woman used, it would be useless against him.

Mo Lian turned and walked towards the top of the passage. Suddenly, he turned back, his phoenix eyes sharpening, and flung out two balls of black flames.

He heard two sharp "bangs," and saw that on the stone wall above, two small snakes were blasted into pieces by his black flames, their bloody remains splattering downwards. Mo Lian's gaze fell on the black blood flowing down the stone wall, a faint murderous aura rippling in his eyes.

You truly are tired of living!

The Mu Family in Longyan City

The commotion Qiao Mu caused at the Mu family's mountain gate had clearly alarmed everyone in the Mu family. Old Master Mu also rushed over upon hearing the news. After seeing his little granddaughter's expressionless, poker face, he acutely sensed that this little poker face's attitude seemed a bit different from before.

"The Mu Family Head sent me a letter asking me to come claim the Chaoyang Tower reward," Qiao Mu said coldly to Old Master Mu, nodding. "Sorry for the trouble."

Old Master Mu looked at her cold, indifferent expression, and his heart involuntarily skipped a beat. He seemed to feel that his little granddaughter was even more distant and aloof than when he had seen her previously. He remembered that on the day of the birthday banquet, his little granddaughter wasn't this icy. Back then, her gaze and tone when speaking to people weren't as sharp and cold as they were now. It was as if, overnight, everything had reverted to its original state. This little one seemed to have returned to her past self, with no warmth in her eyes when looking at the Mu family.

The Old Master felt a bit lost. But he quickly adjusted his mindset and nodded to Qiao Mu, saying, "I'll take you there."

Qiao Mu responded faintly. With a step, she followed the Old Master for a few steps, then stopped in front of Mrs. Hua, who was watching the commotion.

She took a debt note from her inner space and tossed it to the Fifth Mistress. The little Crown Princess said nothing, simply leaving with the Old Master.

"Fifth Sister-in-law, what did the Crown Princess give you?" Mu Dongni curiously leaned over and glanced. She then exclaimed in surprise, "A debt note for the Pink Pavilion!"

Mrs. Hua's lips also trembled. She suddenly looked up at the retreating back of the little Crown Princess. But by then, the little Crown Princess had already left with the Old Master, leaving only a glimpse of her moon-white sleeve as she turned the corner past the flower bushes.

Mu Dongni looked at Mrs. Hua with a complex expression, muttering, "Heh, what kind of person is this Crown Princess, anyway?"

She barely spoke two sentences to Fifth Sister-in-law Hua, yet she unexpectedly stepped forward to resolve such a huge problem for Mrs. Hua concerning the Pink Pavilion.

But if you say she truly cared about family...
