952 Drifting Fragrance Lodge

Miao Xiao Miao looked at Jun Mo Xie and she suddenly smiled widely, like a flower in summer. "I don't wish to make a bet using my own happiness, and I also am unwilling to tie my family's fate to you! However… Young Master's decision to go or not has nothing to do with me. Why does Young Master need to feel that you should make your decision based on my circumstances?!"

"What do you mean?" Jun Mo Xie looked at her with a great deal of confusion.

"What I'm trying to say is… If you want to go, then just go ahead! If you don't wish to go, you don't have to! No matter what choice you make, it has nothing to do with me." A mischievous look appeared in her eyes.

"But Miss, you just said that if I lose, you would also have lost your bet to Zhan Qing Feng!" Jun Mo Xie furrowed his brows and said. "Although you may not be taking part personally, the results will not take into account your non-participation! In that case, why go to the trouble? I would rather not bet than to risk something that is important to another person!"

Jun Mo Xie's face turned serious as he spoke. "Regardless of victory or defeat, the result is not something that I can bear! To me, the fate of your Miao Family might not mean anything. But the lifelong happiness of a young and innocent girl is not something that I can afford to play with! I cannot shoulder this favor, nor compensate it."

Jun Mo Xie was truly speaking from his heart.

He truy couldn't afford to bear the responsibilities!

If he lost, Miao Xiao Miao's future would be destroyed alongside him. Although Young Master Jun was quite confident that he wouldn't lose, his victory would not be much better for Miao Xiao Miao even if he won. His true identity was ultimately opposed to the Misty Illusory Manor. When his identity was exposed in the future, it would mean the end of Miao Xiao Miao and even the entire Miao Family!

Moreover, the heart of a young maiden would very likely be pulled into this matter as well!

A favor like this was something that he would never be able to clear in this life!

Although in Jun Mo Xie's heart, he was quite sure that Young Master Zhan would not necessarily honor his bet allowing Miao Xiao Miao to obtain the slot so easily if he didn't turn up, he still would not force the matter…

"If you really chose not to go… your future days in the Misty Illusory Manor will surely be filled with difficulty! Your future will also become very bleak!" Miao Xiao Miao looked at him seriously and said. "Truthfully… as long as I find a way to cancel my bet with Zhan Qing Feng, you will no longer have to worry about shouldering any responsibility!"

"Cancel?" Jun Mo Xie furrowed his brows. "The bet has already been set; how can it be cancelled?"

"There are naturally numerous methods for this. As long as Young Master Mo cooperates with this Young Lady and disappears temporarily for a couple hours or so, this bet will naturally be easy to cancel." Miao Xiao Miao said with a mysterious smile. "In fact, I can even get Zhan Qing Feng to owe me a great favor!"

"HAHAHA…" With Jun Mo Xie's intelligence, he instantly understood her meaning, and laughed aloud. "Brilliant plan! Brilliant plan indeed!"

"Since we've decided, let's move out separately. I'll see you at Drifting Fragrance Lodge in awhile!" Miao Xiao Miao narrowed her eyes and laughed mischievously. Jun Mo Xie also laughed, and nodded. "Miss's intelligence is indeed extraordinary. This one had always been confident in my wit being unparalleled, but Miss actually managed to think of such a good method in a short time. This Mo is incredibly humbled!"

"Brother Mo has simply been too distracted by the matter and had too much worries in your mind. Thus, it's natural that you couldn't think of it in the moment. I trust that with Young Master's wit, it would be easy for you to come up with a similarly good solution once you've calmed down." A coy smile could be seen in Miao Xiao Miao's eyes, flashing briefly before disappearing. "Brother Mo, dare I ask… when you said 'the lifelong happiness of a young and innocent girl is not something that I can afford to play with', I naturally understand that. But what is the meaning of the words 'I cannot shoulder this favor, nor compensate it'?"

"It's just a random thought; there's no other meaning." Jun Mo Xie smiled awkwardly and said. If he told her the real reason, wouldn't it cause some misunderstanding?

It wasn't clear what was in Miao Xiao Miao's mind, but her face suddenly turned red, before growing pale. Biting her lip lightly, she nodded. "Then… Brother Mo, I'll see you at the Drifting Fragrance Lodge."

"See you at the Drifting Fragrance Lodge." Jun Mo Xie smiled lightly and waved his hand. "I'll give Miss a word of insight before leaving: Bets are normally conducted when the circumstances are absolutely fair for both sides. But most people will only admit their loss if one side is overwhelmingly stronger than the other, forcing them to honor their bet. Miss Miao should not place too much importance on this kind of bets…"

"I understand that. However, with the status of these people, they should not be capable of such a thing, right?" Miao Xiao Miao said hesitantly.

"There are some whose words are worth their weight in gold. But there are also some whse words are akin to farts. This is nothing to feel amazed about." Jun Mo Xie said with a light chuckle. "I'm only saying this in passing; Miss should understand the situation more clearly in your heart."

"Brother Mo is too courteous. No matter what, I still need to thank you for the reminder." Miao Xiao Miao smiled and said as she brought Little Beansprout with her and left. As the two descended the stairs, they halted, but she did not turn around. Her lithe and delicate body disappeared gracefully like a gust of wind, leaving behind a sweet fragrance that did not dissipate for a long time.

When Miao Xiao Miao reached the bottom of the inn and stepped out into the streets, she clearly heard a loud pa sound ring out from the top. The sound was extremely crisp and bright, like a person's face being slapped. Blushing deeply, she quickly hurried away.

That sound had actually come from Jun Mo Xie slapping himself ruthlessly across the face!

Standing silently alone in the room for a long time, he shook his head and muttered to himself. "So it seems I'm really quite shameless!" With a long sigh, his figure flashed, and he disappeared…

Inside the most luxurious building of Heart Fantasy City, Drifting Fragrance Lodge was currently filled to maximum capacity.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting.

The originally extravagant and classy inn had become much more grand and solemn today.

This huge inn, which was originally built with many small rooms, had actually been completely cleared out and the rooms knocked down! It was now wide and spacious, forming a huge lodge that could hold over a thousand people.

Glancing over, one could only see a sea of black hair and young faces. Every single person's face was filled with unhappiness and discontent, and their eyes were blazing with excitement.

The moment that Free and Natural Physique brat comes, everyone will gather together and destroy him! Even if his talent is more amazing, we will make sure that he arrives with furrowed brows and a bitter face, and return crying and wailing!

A group of youngsters sat in the middle of the hall, all of them handsome and elegant looking with nary a single flaw to be found on their faces.

These youths were surrounded by tall and strong guards from their families who stood not far from their Young Masters. Although there likely wouldn't be any dangers here, these guards who had come with great responsibility would not easily let down their guard.

Moreover, a shocking news had recently spread to their ears, that Young Master Gu Fei Yu had underestimated his enemy and went to confront him alone. Although the details were still not clear, the result was that he was now in a coma with his life hanging on a thread because of that Free and Natural Physique brat. Even his grandfather Gu Yun Yang could not do much to save him…

Such a shocking thing had already happened, so everyone could easily guess that today's challenge would not be as simple as they'd presumed it to be. If anything happened to the little lords under their protection, there would be no other options other than by finding a rope to hang themselves…

Naturally, there were exceptions as well. Wang Neng and Li Jie, these two Supreme level experts, were currently held under the lodge, their faces bitter with hatred. Time passed exceedingly slowly for them. From the looks of it, that kid really might not come…

If that were the case, wouldn't the two of them become his sacrificial lamb, becoming the tools for those Young Masters to vent their anger on? If he didn't come, those Young Masters who spent so much time setting down such a grand scene for him would suddenly have lost their target and would definitely look for them instead!

The day seemed to be getting later and later, but nobody showed up.

The various Young Masters had practically dried out their eyes from strain as they stared impatiently at the street!

With their powerful network, there would naturally be news arriving in their ears at all times.

"Lady Miao seems to be talking with Mo Jun Ye."

"Lady Miao is trying to convince Mo Jun Ye to come."

"Lady Miao and Mo Jun Ye are still standing at the same spot, but Lady Miao seems to be exceptionally angry. It seems to be because Mo Jun Ye wants to go home to sleep and is unwilling to care about the life and death of his two seniors…"

"Lady Miao is already downstairs, but that Mo Jun Ye didn't go down with her… he's still upstairs…"

"There's suddenly no more people upstairs; it's not clear where the brat disappeared to…"

"No sightings of him in the East."

"Nothing in the West."

"Nothing here either."

As the reports came back one by one, the faces of the various Young Masters grew more and more enraged! To think that he dares to completely disregard all of us! One must know, that the Misty Illusory Manor is not something that just a single Free and Natural Physique can hold up by himself! All of us here also represent a portion of the Misty Illusory Manor's future!

You actually have the guts to stand all of us up.

If all the large families rebelled together, even the Misty Illusory Manor's Manor Lord would not be able to withstand the pressure! Mo Jun Ye, do you not want to stay here any longer? We originally only intended to play around with you for a bit. But to think that you are so arrogant and unable to see the kindness. Even if you can hide for a day, how about in the future? With all of our powerful forces joining hands, we will definitely toy you to death!

"Big brother, that kid must have run away already because he's scared." The so-called most unprovokable youth of the Misty Illusory Manor, Zhan Yu Shu, sat on a chair, speaking to a youngster who sat in the middle of the group. "If he really runs away out of cowardice and doesn't turn up, your bet with Miss Miao will be considered your loss. Could it be that you're willing to give up that slot so easily? Surely it's too undeserving!"

The youth in the middle had a handsome chiseled face with straight brows, and his features were distinct and sharp. His eyes were as deep as a lake, seemingly unfathomable. This was the number one person of the Zhan Family's young generation, and also Zhan Yu Shu's older brother, Zhan Qing Feng.

Smiling lightly, he smirked. "It's still early right now, and the day is still not over yet. How can you say that Young Master Mo isn't coming? The bet between Miss Miao and I is a private matter. What are you being anxious about? Yu Shu, when it comes to your state of mind, you still need to refine your heart thoroughly. A flighty heart is easily anxious and quick to anger. You need to temper your state of mind more in the future. Being easily affected by emotions is a great taboo in cultivation!"

Pausing slightly, Zhan Qing Feng continued. "From the way he dealt with Gu Fei Yu, this person's methods are clearly very unusual. His temperament is the kind that must repay whatever offense he's suffered. Furthermore, his heart is extremely vicious, grasping every opportunity he can find! This person cannot be underestimated. However, although his methods against Gu Fei Yu were decisive, it also revealed a weakness."
