"I didn't expect that the Crown Prince would be so interested in doing something like this in a Buddhist quiet place."
Astonishment filled Mu Qiushan's heart. How could she not know who the owner of this voice was? If it wasn't for that bloodsucking demon, who else would it be!
Mu Yu Ting slowly opened her eyes and saw a black figure appear on a tree not too far away from her. The man met her surprised gaze and lightly leaped up from the tree, slowly jumping off the building.
His ink-black robe fluttered with the wind, and the dark red patterns drawn on the hem of his clothes added a tinge of evil aura to him. His pair of eyes that were as deep as the night sky carried a trace of an unfathomable smile.
The crown prince's body froze as he heard that voice. The hand he used to pull on Mu Qiantang's clothes immediately halted.
Why did this Third Marquis come? And it had to be at this time!
Mu Yu Ting felt that the Crown Prince had loosened his control over her, and she immediately turned around to escape from his restraints. She kept a certain distance from him, preventing him from jumping on her like a beast.
"Cough, cough …" When the Crown Prince saw that Mu Yuting had escaped his control, he wanted to capture her. However, since there were still others present, he was unable to move. He could only cough lightly and try his best to conceal his embarrassment.
If it was anyone else, it would be fine, but the one who came was Xiao Chan!
He had always disliked Xiao Chen. Whenever he thought of his habit of sucking in people's blood on the full moon, he would feel a chill run down his spine. How could this kind of behavior exist in normal people? He was clearly a monster!
"What? Does His Highness still want to perform the live spring palace in front of This King?" The smile in Xiao Chen's eyes became even wider, but it gave the crown prince goosebumps.
The Crown Prince knew that he definitely wouldn't be able to obtain Mu Qianyu this time. He couldn't help but gnash his teeth in hatred towards this freakish Third Marquis. However, no matter how unhappy he was, he couldn't reveal it.
"Prince, you are just joking. I only saw that lady with a bit of a delicate and pretty appearance. She was just coming forward to chat, so how could she do such a thing in the buddhist world?"
"So that's how it is. Looks like I have misunderstood." Xiao Cheng emphasized the word "misunderstanding." The smile on the corner of his mouth made him seem even more devilishly charming.
When the Crown Prince saw this, he was shocked. He could not help but imagine the scene when the Crown Prince drank human blood. His whole body shivered and he ran off as if he had no time to bother with pleasantries.
Mu Yu Ting looked at the crown prince's departing back and let out a sigh of relief inwardly. She knew that she had avoided a calamity this time. But before long, she realized that she had met another extremely difficult target.
She had not forgotten the scene of the Third Marquis drinking blood in the palace!
Mu Yu Ting reached out to touch the teeth marks that had already healed. She still had lingering fear in her heart, but just as she was about to slip away quietly, she heard a voice come from behind her. "Miss Mu, what are you doing?"
There was a sound of footsteps behind her, as if someone was closing in on her.
Mu Yu Ting accepted her fate and closed her eyes. She took a deep breath to calm her churning heart, then turned around to look at the man who was already standing beside her. "Your Highness, why are you in such a leisurely mood? Have you come for a walk?"
"This King only heard the sound of a woman crying for help from a distance. He was surprised that there would be people in danger in this temple, but he didn't want to see such a wonderful scene when he heard the scream."
Xiao Chen's voice paused as he looked at the trembling girl in front of him. The smile on his face became even more radiant. "Miss, how come I didn't know that Prime Minister Mu's daughter was surnamed Jiang?"
It was only then that Mu Yu Ting remembered that she had changed her name to Jiang Chen Bi. She didn't expect that not only was she unable to attract this man to her, but she was also extremely embarrassed.
"Cough, cough." Mu Yu Ting unnaturally coughed, and immediately didn't know how to reply.
She bit her lips somewhat angrily. She could clearly be extremely eloquent in front of others and not be the least bit inferior. For some reason, every time she met this man, she would fall into an extremely passive state.
She did not like this feeling!
"If it wasn't for This King knowing the truth earlier, I'm afraid that I would have thought that the person who was performing the love scene with the man was you, Miss Mu."
Xiao Chen raised Mu Qiantang's chin, his tone carrying a hint of playfulness. It sounded especially seductive.
Mu Yu Ting awkwardly took a step back and broke free from his fingertip. The wariness in her eyes intensified as she asked, "I wonder what's the meaning of this, Royal Highness?"
She really just crawled out of the pit and fell into the tiger's den. This Xiao Cheng was even harder to deal with than the crown prince.
"I wonder if Miss Mu wants to watch a good show?" Xiao Cheng saw her reaction and followed closely behind her, not allowing her to escape from his body.
Mu Yu Ting was surprised, she didn't understand the meaning behind his words, "Hmm?"
Previously, he was still biting on her for deceiving her for her identity. Why did he suddenly invite her to watch a show?
"Just as I passed by the house at the back of the temple, I heard the sounds of men and women making love. So it's the real Jiang Chenbi and Han Xiangyuan."
Xiao Cheng caught the flash of surprise in Mu Qiantang's eyes, and the smile on her face grew even wider as she moved closer to her. Seeing the man that was almost about to reach her, Mu Yu Ting was so frightened that she took a step back.
"I wonder what is the use of the prince telling me about this?" Mu Yu Ting frowned slightly. Normally, she would have gone over to give him a kick. Just by thinking about it, she knew that the two of them were definitely in cahoots with her.
But now, there was an even more troublesome person in front of her, so she didn't have the mood to think about anything else.
"Naturally, I want to bring Miss Mu to have a look at the great scenery."
Without waiting for a reply, Xiao Chen wrapped his arms around her waist and leapt into the air, heading towards the entrance of the temple.
Mu Yu Ting only felt a man's aura suddenly surround her. Although it was different from the feeling the crown prince gave her, it was still a resistance from the bottom of her heart.
She looked at the scenery that was rapidly disappearing around her. She felt helpless in her heart, but there was also a sense of helplessness. Knowing that she was struggling, she might fall from the sky if she wasn't careful. Even if she didn't die, she would be crippled. Thus, she could only let him carry her.
Xiao Cheng's qinggong was excellent. He was jumping among trees and roof with a person in his arms, yet he was still unable to make any sound.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them stopped in front of a small house by the entrance.
As soon as her feet touched the ground, Mu Qiantang broke free from Xiao Chen's embrace, as if the hand he placed on her waist was a blazing fire.
Xiao Cheng did not feel awkward either. With a smile on his face and a composed expression, it was as if he did not notice that Mu Yu Ting was avoiding him.
That small house was located in a remote place. The foot gate beside it had long been abandoned and was rarely used. Normally, no one would go there, so it was the perfect place for people to steal from it.
Mu Yu Ting heard the faint sounds of laughter coming from inside the house. Her curiosity, which had been suppressed by Xiao Chen earlier, immediately began to boil up.
She moved closer to the window frame, so that the voices of the men and women in the room could be heard more clearly.
