Good Luck When It Comes to Women

Mu Liu'er's expression was cold, and her beautiful eyes were fixed on the shabby room door.

After a moment, a figure slowly walked out.

The sun was bright at this time, and the room behind the youth looked dim and narrow. He was dressed in all black, and he gave off a cold, lonely aura. The inside and outside of the house seemed to be two different worlds and that youth came out in a slow and calm manner.

Mu Liu'er furrowed her brows slightly.

When she heard the news that Mu Ye had been injured and was dying, she was shocked and angry, and had immediately rushed over to see him.

The poison that Mu Ye intended to use on Mu Linghan the other day was terrifying. Once poisoned, the person would not be able to die immediately and would be forced to suffer through a lot of pain. The torture would go on for a month before the person would finally be allowed to die.

Mu Liu'er saw Mu Ye's swollen and purple body, as well as the greenish-blue veins popping out. His features were completely distorted, and it was impossible to tell what he originally looked like.

His voice was hoarse and weak when he spoke.

"Co… Cousin… Save me…" 

Mu Ye's eyes were almost sealed shut from the swelling and pus, and Mu Liu'er could still feel the endless resentment that burned in them!

So, without hesitation, she rushed over and kicked Mu Qinglan's door down.

Mu Qinglan looked at the fallen door and couldn't help but let out a sigh internally. It was better if she just forgot about how many times her door had been kicked down. How many times did this make?

As she thought about this, she straightened up and crossed her arms. Then, she leaned against the doorway and raised her head slightly.

Mu Liu'er froze. She didn't expect such a handsome youth to step out from the house.

Then, she saw the youth raise his dashing brows slightly and give her a passing glance. His lips curled up and he said with a smile, "At least it's a pretty girl today." 

His tone was teasing, and his smile was charming.

Mu Liu'er was stunned, then the fire in her heart burned even stronger instantly!

Her face was red from anger, and she pointed a slender finger at Mu Qinglan.

"You dog, you've got guts! How dare you? How dare you…"

'How dare you be so frivolous!'

The way the youth looked at her was as if he was looking at some object in general!

Mu Qinglan snorted. "Hmm… As expected, you're a sassy girl." 

Mu Liu'er trembled with rage.

Since she was a child, she had always been the center of attention with her outstanding talent and beautiful appearance. Many people liked her, and treated her carefully to get into her good graces. No one had teased her so publicly before!

The expressions of the two youths following behind Mu Liu'er darkened, and the tall, thin youth came forward and reprimand Mu Qinglan.

"You're really reckless! How dare you treat Sister Liu'er so casually!"

The other youth sneered. "Sister Liu'er, just leave this kind of person to us. He'd only dirty your hands!" 

They all liked Mu Liu'er in their hearts. Mu Liu'er was proud and haughty, and they never dared to treat her in such a way. Who would have thought this brat was actually looking for death?!

Mu Qinglan ignored those two as she studied Mu Liu'er from head to toe.

The gaze was fleeting, but Mu Liu'er felt as though she had been stripped naked, and she was standing before this youth with nothing on. The ambiguous smile on his face made it worse, and she felt extremely embarrassed and angry.

"Brothers and sister, if you want to kill someone, you should tell them the reason first." 

Although Mu Qinglan phrased her question that way, she could already guess who this young woman before her was.

Mu Qinglan had only been here for a few months and rarely interacted with others, but that didn't mean she didn't know anything around here.

On the contrary, she already knew Mu Mansion like the back of her hand.

This young woman looked fifteen or sixteen years old, and she had pretty features. She also dared to barge into his house in such an aggressive manner, so she must be quite valued in Mu Mansion.

The way she kicked down the door also displayed that she was quite strong. Among the people in Mu Mansion of the same age range, Mu Qinglan had not seen anyone more outstanding than the young woman in front of her.

What's more, the young woman was wearing the uniform of Biluo Academy.

The two youths standing behind her were also wearing the same green robes.

So, it would seem that this young woman was Mu Liu'er from Mu Mansion, who had been selected two years ago to be sent to Biluo Academy to study. 

Although the Imperial Capital's Mu family was flourishing, Mu Mansion in this remote Luo Xi City was in more dire straits. They had also not produced any outstanding talents in the past few years.

Biluo Academy was one of the several major academies in the Holy Yuan Empire, and those who were chosen to enter naturally had extraordinary talents. The academy students were also proud of their status and confident in themselves.

When Mu Qinglan had been in the main family, she didn't care much about this. She only vaguely knew that the Mu family would select people from the branches to enter these academies. The total number of people they chose usually came up to be about 200.

The Holy Yuan Empire was massive, and the Mu family had many branches. Although 200 people seemed a lot, they were in fact all outstanding geniuses among the branches that were extremely valued.

After Mu Liu'er and a few others had been selected in the past two years, no one else had been chosen to enter the academies.

Because of that, Mu Liu'er was naturally more arrogant.

"Hmph, you still dare to ask? You and Mu Ye both belong to the same family! How could you be so vicious towards him?!"

That tall, thin youth took a step forward, a righteous look on his face as he scolded Mu Qinglan.

Mu Qinglan gave him a strange look.

"Mu Ye was the one who challenged me to a duel. Was I supposed to thank him for it and let him beat me?" 

The youth that spoke previously choked.

The other youth frowned. "You could have just won the duel. You didn't have to kill him!" 

Mu Qinglan smiled, but it was cold.

"Not only was Mu Ye unable to beat me, but he also tried to poison me. I simply gave him a taste of his own medicine, that's all! Since you're all so compassionate, will you praise me for doing a good job if I stab each of you once?" 

"You!" The youth's face turned red with anger, and he seemed to want to argue further.

"Everyone in the mansion knows about this. Did you guys come here to avenge Mu Ye without knowing the whole story, and without being able to distinguish between right and wrong?"

Her words were facts and unpleasant to hear, and the two youths who had spoken out before could not refute it.

Mu Liu'er also hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

She was Mu Ye's cousin, and they shared a deep bond. Seeing him in that state, how could she think of asking questions? She had immediately rushed over without thinking about it.

She hadn't expected Mu Qinglan to put her in a difficult position.

"Even so, you can't say that you didn't use any underhanded tricks when fighting against Mu Ye! What's more, Mu Ye didn't really hurt you, yet you made him suffer a fate worse than death! I'll teach you how to be a decent human being today!" Mu Liu'er shouted, then disappeared from where she was standing!

Mu Qinglan turned slightly sideways and said with a laugh, "Are you so anxious to barge into a man's room?"

Mu Liu'er grew angrier. She had been using 50% of her powers, and in a flash, she increased it to 80%!

The atmosphere in the area instantly became heavier!

Mu Qinglan moved lightly on her feet and dashed out into the courtyard. She shook her head and said, "It's unfortunate, but I have little interest in you." 

Snap!

A long whip instantly lashed out!

Mu Qinglan's eyes were cold, and her smile deepened. Then, she suddenly moved!

Mu Liu'er couldn't see the figure anymore, and she knitted her brows.

She abruptly turned around in the next moment and was just about to send her whip out when a powerful force landed on her hand! It felt like a deadly steel clamp on her wrist!

At some point, Mu Qinglan had grabbed Mu Liu'er's wrist from behind, causing Mu Liu'er to be unable to move. Mu Qinglan stepped closer, and Mu Liu'er could feel the warm breath on her cheeks. She felt embarrassed and humiliated on the inside!

"This whip suits you. It really… shows that you don't know how to use things sparingly." 

Others watching couldn't hear what Mu Qinglan said clearly, but it looked like she was hugging Mu Liu'er from behind. They looked like a handsome couple, one affectionate while the other shy. They painted quite an ambiguous image.

Once Mu Qinglan was done mocking Mu Liu'er, she was about to back away. Suddenly, she heard a voice that reminded her of a stream on a snowy mountain hitting ice blocks, chilling to the extreme, speak.

"I didn't know that even though you've become a cripple, your days are still so carefree." 

Mu Qinglan felt her heart tremble slightly, and she twisted around to meet a pair of ink-colored eyes.

Yun Yi was dressed in all white, and he looked extremely eye-catching. The expression on his magnificent face was icy, and his tone sounded like it had been mixed with ice sludge. 

"Really, you have such good luck when it comes to women." 

Mu Qinglan suddenly felt a chill running down her spine.
