Enchantress Amongst Alchemists: Ghost King’s Concubine

“Elder sister Xiao.”

Mu Hao Tian walked smilingly to Mu Ru Yue. With his gaze as dazzling as light from the stars, he said sincerely, “Congratulations Elder sister Xiao…”

Mu Ru Yue’s gaze softened as she looked at the youth that was standing before her. A captivating smile graced her impeccable face.

Clap!

Clap! Clap! Clap!

Suddenly, clapping sounds were heard from behind them. A man in black robes appeared in the crowd’s eyes when they shifted their gaze to the source.

The man had a cold smile on his handsome, but cold face. His abyss ink-black eyes were like the entire night sky, as though it was able to suck people deeply within it.

“Xia Rui!”

Mu Ru Yue’s breath tightened. Her gaze slowly darkened with sinister cold killing intents in her eyes.

“So Young Miss Xiao knows me.” Xia Rui smirked as he stared at that impeccable face with a fake smile. A discreet glow shone past her eyes.

Mu Ru Yue chuckled coldly as she replied, “Who won’t know Xia Rui of the Xia family? I wonder why Mister Xia had come here.”

“Nothing much,” Xia Rui smirked as he stared at that flawless face and continued, “I heard a lot of great things about Young Miss Xiao. You really look like her.”

He sniggered lowly with a trace of mockery smirk on his face.

Everyone knew who he was referring to. Hence, they looked at Mu Ru Yue with an obscure glow in their eyes…

“Mister Xia,” Mu Zheng frowned slightly as he looked coldly at that handsome face. He then warned, “If you have come to participate in the evening banquet, my Mu family will be more than happy to welcome you. But if you’re here to create trouble, I am sorry but I can only ask you to leave!”

“Haha!”

Xia Rui chuckled brazenly as he said, “Why is the Mu family’s head leader treating me like this? Our families might have been able to be connected as one by marriage and I would also have to call you my grandfather if it wasn’t for Lady Mu to have already died…”

But he was monitoring Mu Ru Yue’s expression from the start with a trace of happiness in his eyes as he said that.

‘It is a pity what disappointed me is that Mu Ru Yue didn’t have a change in her expression, as though she didn’t hear what I said.

‘Can it be I had thought wrongly? This woman isn’t Mu Ru Yue?

‘But how can there be someone to be so identical in her appearance and grandeur?’

Boom!

A sinister cold aura erupted abruptly from Ye Wu Chen’s body. His gloomy purple eyes stared at the other’s face. Xia Rui’s expression changed slightly under Ye Wu Chen’s grandeur, apprehensiveness was gradually expressed in his gaze.

‘This man is indeed an expert…’

“Hmph!” Mu Zheng snorted coldly as he said, “Your Xia family is indeed stronger than my Mu family, but frankly speaking, you are incompatible with my granddaughter!”

Xia Rui’s gaze darkened and with a sneer, he said, “There aren’t any girls that I, Xia Rui, can’t obtain! Mu Ru Yue was the only one! But…”

He shifted his gaze to Mu Ru Yue upon saying that and with a smiled, he continued, “I had failed in obtaining her. But it isn’t bad to be able to obtain a girl that looks just like her clone. Young Miss Xiao, you… had successfully made me be interested in you!”

Xia Rui currently failed to notice the sinister cold aura circling Ye Wu Chen’s body as he smirked, wanting to obtain Mu Ru Yue no matter what.

‘I certainly won’t fail twice! I must obtain this woman before killing her!’

“Wu Chen, do you think I will go with him with what he said? It is needless to be enraged by this kind of person.”

Mu Ru Yue hastily calmed down the man by her side. She looked indifferently at Xia Rui that was acting recklessly, sighing somewhat helplessly.
