Chapter 103

“I never thought you’d be so lucky to survive!”

Jimo Chen’s heart was in turmoil. He couldn’t believe he had failed to kill even a child. If he had known this earlier, he would have strangled him back then instead of showing a trace of mercy.

After Mu Ye escaped, Jimo Chen’s people couldn’t find him. Until the tri-nation competition, Mu Ye’s appearance aroused Jimo Chen’s suspicion.

Su Hua looked at him with an expression as if he were an idiot.

“You threw Ah Mu out of the palace when he was a child. He doesn’t even remember who he is. If you hadn’t suddenly appeared, it would have been very difficult for us to investigate what happened back then.”

The implication was that if Jimo Chen hadn’t acted desperately, they might have been able to rest easy and not expose themselves so quickly.

“Idiot,” Mu Ye added a ‘knife’ quietly.

Jimo Chen: “…”

F*ck, are these two mocking him right now?

Seeing the person he failed to kill appear before him again, his first instinct was to try and kill him again!

How could he be so stupid!

Seeing no movement outside, Jimo Chen’s heart sank even further.

“Now you can say your last words,” Su Hua said, finding a chair to sit on.

Mu Ye stood by her side, looking at Jimo Chen.

“Speak.”

“Mu Ye, if you let me go, I can give you the throne. I can leave the capital, even leave Baiqi. I can swear to it.”

Jimo Chen raised three fingers.

As long as Mu Ye agreed, he would swear immediately.

“No.”

Mu Ye’s eyes remained cold.

Su Hua dutifully translated for Mu Ye, “He doesn’t want this throne, and he killed you just because you killed that farmer’s family.”

“Hahaha, is there really someone in this world who doesn’t care about power?”

Mu Ye took Su Hua’s hand, his cold tone softening a bit.

“Only her.”

Jimo Chen looked at Su Hua with complex emotions. If it weren’t for this woman, he would have succeeded in assassinating Mu Ye.

“He means that all the lands and rivers are not as important as me,” Su Hua said smugly.

“I know,” Jimo Chen roared, feeling both furious and defeated.

I know that you are very important in Mu Ye’s heart! No more dog abuse!

“Do it.”

With Su Hua’s command, Jimo Chen’s tragic life came to an end.

After getting her revenge, Su Hua heard De’er’s delighted voice.

“The blackening value dropped to 20. If the host could have a few more intimate moments with him, it should reach zero.”

Su Hua heard this and silently clicked on the report.

[Host Su Hua has reported System 666 for inappropriate comments. Confirmed. System is locked for 6 hours.]

“… Host, you are quite assertive!”

Su Hua and Mu Ye quietly left the palace once again. The next day, the capital was abuzz with rumors.

Crown Prince Jimo Chen had been assassinated in the palace.

“I heard he died a horrible death. Many in the palace saw it. Even the emperor couldn’t cover it up.”

“I wonder who the Crown Prince offended.”

“People are guessing it was done by the Dongxu Kingdom or the Huanglan Kingdom. Could it be war?”

“The three kingdoms are evenly matched. If there’s a war, it would be disastrous for all.”

“Not necessarily. I heard there’s a new magic saint from the Xuanyun Academy, a sixteen-year-old magic saint!”

“Really? That would greatly enhance the strength of the Dongxu Kingdom!”

“Isn’t that something?”

“Aren’t magic saints prohibited from participating in wars?”

“That’s what they say, but who can control what happens in the shadows?”

Su Hua was eating breakfast, surrounded by people discussing the assassination of the Crown Prince. Most of the talk centered around conspiracy theories, with many fearing a war among the three kingdoms.

“What do you want to do next?”

Su Hua asked Mu Ye.

Mu Ye blinked his beautiful eyes and shook his head, a rare trace of confusion in his eyes. After getting his revenge, he had no particular place he wanted to go; he just wanted to be with her forever.

Seeing him like this, Su Hua couldn’t resist teasing him a bit.

“I have somewhere I need to go. Should we part ways here?”

Mu Ye quickly grabbed Su Hua’s hand, his eyes filled with stubbornness and fear.

“won’t part.”

At the same time, De’er’s voice echoed in her mind.

“Host, what did you do? Mu Ye’s blackening value just shot up to 120.”

Su Hua: “…”

She had just proven what it means when they say you won’t die if you don’t do stupid things.

The blackening value was now 120, higher than when she first arrived.

“Okay, okay, we won’t part,” Su Hua hurriedly reassured him, holding his hand. “I was just teasing you. Why are you so nervous?”

But Mu Ye wouldn’t let go, his eyes fixated on Su Hua, as if afraid she would disappear the moment he blinked.

Mu Ye had good reason to be so anxious. Su Hua had descended from the sky; if she left one day, it wouldn’t be surprising.

Mu Ye suddenly realized that if Su Hua wanted to leave, she could do so at any time. This thought made him feel very insecure.

Dark thoughts began to sprout. If he broke her legs and took her to a place where only the two of them existed, she would never be able to leave him again.

“Host, the blackening value is now 130!” De’er exclaimed.

It had just been locked away in the small, dark room for a short while, and the blackening value had skyrocketed from 20 to 130. What on earth had the host done?

Su Hua: “…”

She had just seen his cute expression and wanted to tease him a bit. Who knew he couldn’t handle it and blackened so quickly?

This wasn’t fun at all!

From then on, Mu Ye refused to stay in his own room, sticking to Su Hua at all times, afraid she would leave him.

Su Hua felt helpless but had no choice. She had to fill the hole she dug, even if she had to kneel down.

On their journey back, Su Hua took Mu Ye sightseeing and said many nice things. Only then did his blackening value finally drop to 100.

“…I’m exhausted. After all this work, it’s like we’re back to square one.”

Before they reached the capital of the border city, a group of people found them.

“Greetings, Fifth Prince,” said an official who had brought dozens of guards with him.

Mu Ye didn’t speak. The official seemed to know Mu Ye’s character and quickly explained, “His Majesty has uncovered the truth of what happened back then and misses you greatly. He hopes you can return to the palace with me and reunite with him.”

“No,” Mu Ye replied curtly.

“Your Highness, are you still resentful that His Majesty couldn’t protect you back then?”

“No,” he repeated.

The official wiped his sweat and continued, “Since you’re not resentful, why won’t you come back with me? His Majesty has been searching for you all these years and misses you deeply.”

“No.”

The official was at a loss for words. He had thought this task would be easy, but it was turning out to be extremely difficult.

He turned to Su Hua for help.

“Miss Yao, could you help persuade His Highness?”

“Who are you, and why should I help you?”

“…Great! She may not be speaking in single words, but her replies are even more infuriating.”
