nce," the steward spoke at just the right moment.An Xue Tang nodded slightly, and bowed to this Qin Madam, "Madam Qin."Mrs. Qin nodded slightly, "Miss An, let's talk in the inner room."An Xue Tang nod...An Xuetang looked at Mo Junyi thoughtfully, as if asking him with her eyes if something had happened.

Mo Junyi shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't know anything!

An Xue Tang swallowed the fish in her bowl and then looked at Mo Yun Jing, probingly asking, "A-Jing, did you do something wrong It's okay, just tell me. As long as you haven't gotten involved with other women, no matter what you've done I can forgive you."

Mo Yunjing gave her a speechless glance, continued to clip meat for her, and said, "Just finish your meal first, and we can talk after that."

An Xuetang's little heart started beating fast when she heard him say that.

What What about Is there something serious going on between them that requires a sit-down conversation

Mo Junyi was also very curious. He looked at An Xuetang, who had a face full of grief, his eyes filled with confusion.

An Xuetang pursed her lips, then pretended to cry and said, "Ajing, have I done something wrong, so you're going to feed me well before slaughtering me"

Mo Yunjing chuckled softly and gave her a meaningful glance. "Hmm, perhaps!"

At this moment, a playful glint danced in his eyes. An Xuetang and Mo Jyunyi exchanged glances, realizing they weren't getting anywhere with their probing. So, they simply ate their meal in silence.

After eating, An Xuetang and Mo Junyi sat upright, their eyes fixed on each other. Every pore on their bodies exuded a strange, inky cloud of darkness.

Mo Yunjing tried his best not to be amused by the two people's uncanny synchronicity. He kept a straight face, maintaining an impassive expression as he looked at them.

An Xuetang nervously rubbed her small hands, "Ajing, you quickly say, what exactly happened"

"Why weren't you obedient yesterday"

"...An Xuetang pursed her lips. So that's what it was. She had already said so, because she couldn't bear to worry about him!"

"An Xuetang, you seem to have not yet realized your own problems."

"!" An Xuetang stared in disbelief. He actually called her by her full name

Before An Xue Tang could reply, Mo Yun Jing glared at Mo Jun Yi with a darkened face, “And you, why didn't you have the ability to stop your mother from taking such risks If it weren't for her finding me yesterday, if it weren't for those truly ruthless enemies having been defeated and routed by Yun... Lan Chu Xiao's people yesterday, your mother's life would likely be lost!”

Mo Jun Yi's face turned pale. He never expected that his mother was in such a dangerous situation last night.

His lips moved, but he couldn't find the words to say. Looking at her, he knew it was his fault. He hadn't taken good care of his mother, and he hadn't been able to stop it from happening. If something had truly happened to her last night, he wouldn't be able to forgive himself.

Seeing Mo Junyi's face turn completely dark, An Xuetang quickly spoke up, "Ajing, don't purposely scare Zi Ling. Wasn't everything fine last night Don't frighten him."

Mo Yunjing narrowed his eyes and looked at her, "Do you know in your heart whether I frightened him As for that man who pretended to be an old woman, do you know who he is"

"Who is it..."

To be honest, An Xuetang was also very curious. The person who inhaled the medicine powder she made didn't fall down immediately and could even use his internal energy to fly away. His martial arts must be pretty good!

"The number one master of the Blue Nation, Phoenix Call."

Mo Junyi heard this person's name and his eyes widened instantly. He looked at An Xuetang anxiously, "Mother, did you meet Feng Ming"

An Xuetang blinked, she didn't know who this person was at all. She just felt that this person's martial arts were not low. At this moment, she couldn't help but ask, "A Jing, Zi Ling, is this Feng Ming really that powerful"

"Indeed impressive!" Mo Junyi exclaimed, "Mother, it's said that with this Phoenix Cry, one person could lay waste to an entire city."

Can one person raze a city

Such a stretch!

"Ajing, then tell me, compared to Fengming, whose martial arts are more superior"

"My fifth uncle is probably about the same as him, but my fifth uncle doesn't have that ferociousness like Feng Ming."

"Then what am I afraid of" An Xuetang blinked. "A-Jing and he are evenly matched in martial arts, so wouldn't A-Jing and I be able to defeat him together if we teamed up"

Moyun Jing's inky black, profound eyes narrowed slightly, "Are we discussing how to defeat Feng Ming"

"Well... then what"

"An Xuetang, I see that you still don't know where you went wrong even now!"

An Xuetang pursed her lips and mumbled with her head down, "I really don't know where I went wrong!"

Mo Yunjing was almost amused by her nonchalant attitude. He sighed deeply, unable to hold back any longer, and reached out to pinch her cheek, "An Xuetang, remember this for me, this isn't Lingshui Village. Don't wander around at will in the future, understand"

An Xue Tang pursed her lips, though she was a little displeased, she could only reply, "Alright, alright, I understand!"

If she encountered such a situation again, she would still go to him. After all, he went out of the city without even telling her!

If he can worry about her, shouldn't she worry about him too

Mo Junyi, here listening, only felt like he had eaten a mouthful of dog food.

He fell silent again, then asked another question. "Mother, did you really see the phoenix call"

"I don't really know if he is or isn't. Firstly, I've never met this Feng Ming before. Secondly, the person I saw last night was disguised, and I couldn't recognize his true face."

"Mother, I heard that Phoenix-Calling Man is neither male nor female. He can be a glamorous woman or a fair-faced young man."

"..."

An Xuetang was stunned. She suddenly remembered that the man's Adam's apple was very small, not at all like a normal man's Adam's apple, but it wasn't like a woman's who had no Adam's apple either.

> To know that the Adam's apple is formed by an increase in male hormone secretion in boys, the anterior upper ends of the two sides of the thyroid cartilage rapidly enlarge and protrude forward.

What's wrong with that man!

Seeing her lost in thought, Mo Yunjing reached out and gently touched her head, saying softly, "What are you thinking about"

I wonder if that person is male or female.

"Don't worry about that right now, just tell me what he said to you"

Given Mo Yun Jing's understanding of that Feng Ming, such a cruel person, why would he let An Xue Tang go

"He...didn't say anything to me."

Actually, An Xue Tang's mind recalled that person saying: "I seem to be quite interested in you. Why don't you come with me..."

Now that I think about it, this person seemed pretty serious when they said that!!

This person who isn't male or female, could they really be interested in her

Was the dismembered body left at the city gate really meant to lure her out

What was his purpose in doing so

If not to lure her out of the city, why would he create that mangled corpse

Mo Yunjing frowned, his jawline tightening. "Tangtang, don't lie to me."

"..."g in at all.So, this wait stretched on until the darkest and windiest night arrived.At this time, the city gate was already closed. He avoided the watchful eyes on the city wall and tiptoed to the cit...
