Chapter 32
After the Empress Dowager died, the Host lost her value to Mo Jinyu. When he became the Crown Prince, he revealed his true colors. Many times, he had insulted the Host who pined after the warmth he had given her when she was young.
After the Host accidentally lost her virginity and became pregnant with another man’s child, Mo Jinyu started to insult her even more.
What was even more disgusting was that after Mo Jinyu became the Crown Prince, he actually got together with Yun Qingqing.
How could the Host not be sad to see the person she liked with her own sister?
In order to make Mo Jinyu happy, she did many stupid things. Yun Ran felt uncomfortable just thinking about it.
Seeing that she was stopped in front, Thunderbolt quickly brought people over to ask what was going on.
“Miss Yun, what happened?”
Yun Ran picked at her lower lip. “They say this is the Crown Prince’s domain. They won’t let us go any farther.”
“The Crown Prince’s domain?”
If it were other mercenary groups, there was a high chance that they would just give in. No one would want to become enemies with the East Continent’s Crown Prince.
However, in the eyes of Thunderbolt, the Crown Prince should be the one giving way to his master when his master went against the Crown Prince.
“Do you know who she is?”
“I don’t care who this woman is. No matter how noble her status is, can she compare to the East Continent’s Crown Prince?”
That person glanced at Thunderbolt arrogantly without even looking at him.
He only treated them as a small mercenary group that had come to the forest to do a mission.
Before Thunderbolt could reveal his identity, Mo Beiyuan had already walked over with the Sweetcake.
He said calmly, “Go back and ask Mo Jinyu if he dares to stop my people.”
The night was dark, and Mo Beiyuan was far away earlier, so this group of people did not see Mo Beiyuan’s other pupils just now.
But now they could see clearly. They also immediately recognized him. There was only one person in this world who had the Other Pupil. There was no mistaking it.
“Y-Your Highness… Y-You… Why are you here?”
As arrogant as those people were previously, they were now as cowardly. Even their voices had softened.
“Your Highness, we’re working for the Crown Prince. We have no intention of offending you.”
“It’s like this. Miss Yun is about to participate in the sect meeting. The Crown Prince wants to give her a personal weapon, but there aren’t enough materials for refining. Therefore, we’re here to help her gather materials. Do you think it’s convenient…”
If it were anyone else, they would probably do him a favor. But when had Mo Beiyuan ever done anyone a favor?
His thin lips twitched and his eyes turned cold. “What does his woman’s weapon have to do with me?”
As soon as he said that, Yun Ran understood why he had so many enemies. However, his words were quite pleasing to her ears.
After saying that, Mo Beiyuan walked forward, probably too lazy to bother with these people.
Yun Ran paused for a moment and asked, “By the way, what are you looking for here?”
When the mercenaries heard her question, they thought she was easy to talk to. Things had changed.
He hurriedly replied, “It’s the reverse scale of the eight-star demonic beast, the Jade Phosphorus Snake. The Crown Prince is preparing to embed it on Miss Yun’s personal weapon to please her.”
“Oh,” Yun Ran said, pretending to be serious.
She asked again, “Is that thing you’re talking about precious?”
The other party replied, “Of course. That eight-star demonic beast, the Jade Phosphorus Snake, is rare, to begin with. Its entire body is covered in jade-green scales, but only its reverse scale is blood-red. Not only is that reverse scale more beautiful than rubies, but it also has a miraculous effect of resisting the poisonous fog.”
Yun Ran nodded seriously. “That’s indeed quite precious and special.”
