The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood - Chapter 416

Chapter 416

Xiao Yue stared at the man clad in red wedding attire, her eyes sparkling . She could not believe that the man sitting atop the horse was Ye Mo . However, it took a mere glance for her to confirm that the man was indeed Ye Mo . More than a year of separation and day after day of missing him had etched Ye Mo deeply onto Xiao Yue’s heart . His appearance might have still been the same, but his expression and his aura were completely different .

“Why? Why? He has already reached the True Energy Realm and can leave the Tianwu Kingdom . Why didn’t he come for me? Why is he marrying another woman? Did he have a change of heart?” Xiao Yue shook her head as tears welled up in her eyes .

“No, I have to clarify things with him . No, what right do I have to question him? The Xiao Family already owes him so much, how can I expect him to care about someone like me? Seeing how happy his smile looks, he must love that Lady Mu . Why should I make life difficult for him?” Xiao Yue shook her head weakly as she shut the window and sat on the couch, her body powerless and her eyes lifeless . She felt as if her heart had been dug out from her body . Not wanting to make life difficult for Ye Mo, she chose to retreat .

It was only when Chen Ling and the rest returned did Xiao Yue come back to her senses .

“Sister Xiao Yue, you have no idea how crowded it is outside . Who would’ve thought that getting married would be this fun? I wonder what my future other half would be like . Even though this groom is only in the intermediate stage of the True Energy Realm, he’s decent . However, looking at that Mu Family’s bride, tsk tsk, even Liu Ying and I can’t help but feel a bit jealous . I’m afraid only you would be able to compete with her,” Chen Ling said as she entered the room .

Liu Ying continued saying, “Sister Chen Ling, I think those two are truly a match made in heaven . ”

Hearing that, Xiao Yue’s body trembled as she asked with a pale expression, “You all think so?”

“Naturally . I heard that the groom is called Ye Mo . He lent the Mu Family a helping hand and asked to marry the daughter of the family . Seeing that Ye Mo is young and powerful, the Mu Family’s head agreed to the wedding . ”

“Oh . ” Xiao Yue replied weakly before she said, “If there’s nothing else, let’s return to the Sky Bane Temple today . I don’t want to stay here anymore, especially in the Cloudsea City . ”

“What’s wrong, Sister Xiao Yue?”

“There must have been some problems with her training . She has the Sky Phoenix Poison Curse Body – it would be difficult to control the Sky Phoenix Poison Curse even if you master the techniques of the Sky Bane Temple . Now that we are in the midst of a battle between the Sky Bane Temple and the Holy Poison Palace, Sister Xiao Yue is the Sky Bane Temple’s biggest trump card . ”

“Don’t worry . This time, we Sky Bane Temple will destroy the Holy Poison Palace . When that happens, we will become one of the strongest clans in Mo Lo City . Even the Zone of Desolation’s Door of Desolation will be nothing compared to us . ” Yang Yao muttered .

“The Door of Desolation is not as easy as you all think it is,” Xiao Yue said calmly, “In the Zone of Desolation, the Door of Desolation is a giant clan that is a bane for strong fighters . Even the Master is extremely wary of the Door of Desolation’s head . Let’s return now . ”

Ye Mo was naturally unaware of what was happening – he was already in the same room as Mu Qing .

“Lady Mu Qing, you lied to me?” With the two of them sent to the room to consummate their marriage, Ye Mo asked, slightly angered .

What happened in the day already told Ye Mo that this wasn’t a fake wedding ceremony, but a real one . Mu Feng’s expression today was not something that could have been acted out .

“Yes, Mister Ye Mo, I lied to you,” Mu Qing said calmly . “I didn’t have a mother since I was young, so my father has been extremely protective of me . If he were to know about this, there was no way that he would’ve agreed to let me sacrifice my eternal happiness for you to gain more training resources . That’s why I lied to my father and told him that we like each other and that you would like to marry into the family . I also told him how you singlehandedly knocked out the monster swamp and slaughtered the Desert Eagles . Given his extremely hard-to-please taste, even he was happy to agree to our marriage . ”

“Why did you do that?” Ye Mo’s tone was calmer now .

“I don’t have any other motives – and don’t think that I would like you . Our marriage is nothing more than cooperation – the Mu Family will help you successfully enter the Luosha Blood Pool . I just need you to help me with something,” Mu Qing said .

Ye Mo replied, “As long as it is within my abilities, I will help you accomplish the task, no matter how tough it is . ”

Mu Qing said, “My mother left my father after giving birth to me . My mother is an extremely gifted fighter . My father told me that after she had given birth to me, she participated in the annual Luosha Kingdom fall trials and successfully won a Luosha Token . The token represents a transportation seal into the Door of Desolation . However, my mother has been missing ever since then . My father says that she has passed away but I’ve never believed that . I feel that she is still alive . If you enter the Door of Desolation, I hope you can find my mother . No matter whether she’s dead or alive, I just hope that you can get to the bottom of it . ”

“What is your mother’s name?” Ye Mo asked .

Mu Qing shared a rather similar fate to him . Also, with Mu Qing having helped him, Ye Mo nodded his head and accepted the request .

“My mother is called Lan Xin . If she is still alive, she should be 40 years old already . My father said that I look like Mother . ” Mu Qing sighed in relief and looked at Ye Mo with a smile-filled expression, the iciness in her voice melted away .

“Lan Xin!!” Ye Mo muttered the name inside his heart, firmly remembering it .

“Alright, don’t train today . Let’s go to sleep . My father is a fighter in the Transcendence Realm, don’t let him suspect anything . I will bring you to the southern region of the sub-palace tomorrow morning where you can enter the Luosha Blood Pool . ”

After that, Mu Qing hid behind the curtain and changed out of her bridal attire . Ye Mo turned around, not looking at her, only turning back after she crawled into bed .

“What a stubborn old man, this Mu Feng . ” Ye Mo could detect a hint of a True Energy presence locked tightly onto the room .

Ye Mo also removed his top and slept beside Mu Qing . Even though they were sleeping together, Ye Mo did not try anything funny, instead of falling asleep as he lay in bed . Mu Qing looked at Ye Mo and relaxed as she also fell asleep .

“Finally sleeping together . You two must give me a big, fat boy . I, Mu Feng, want a grandson to hold . ”

Just like that, the night where the marriage was supposed to be consummated went by! The next day, Mu Qing woke up and slashed her wrist, staining the bed sheet red before leaving the room . Witnessing that, Ye Mo was almost scared to death . Having experienced it twice, he naturally understood what the red represented . However, knowing Mu Qing, this must have been done intentionally .

Mu Family Hall!

“Ye Mo, Qing’er, did you two sleep well last night?” Mu Feng laughed wildly .

“Father, we slept well last night . However, I was rather exhausted because of Ye Mo,” Mu Qing said, blushing .

“Haha!” Mu Feng laughed wildly once again as he immediately turned to Ye Mo and said, “Ye Mo, now that you’ve married into our family, you are now a resident of the Luosha Kingdom . Today, Qing’er shall bring you to the Luosha Sub-Palace for you to submerge yourself in the Luosha Blood Pool and train your Luosha Mark . With your gifted talent, you should make good use of this Luosha Blood Pool . How much you will be able to absorb will still depend on your caliber .

“Understood!”
