C37

The situation on the stage changed after a short while, the inn was silent, everyone held their breath and stared at Yu Kexin and Mu Shuo who were on the stage.

The old man who came with Mu Shuo stood up straight, and Aunt Tao creased his forehead.

My heart clenched so hard that I forgot to breathe.

I don't care who wins or loses, I don't want any of them to be seriously injured or dead.

Yu Kexin used the dagger to stab at Mu Shuo's chest. Mu Shuo, who had just finished retracting his attack, did not manage to dodge in time and hastily used the black curved blade to strike at the dagger.

Although the dagger did not pierce into Mu Shuo's heart, it still pierced into his body.

Yu Kexin's speed was very fast, all the daggers had entered Mu Shuo's body, leaving only the handle outside of Mu Shuo's body.

Mu Shuo looked at him coldly, raised his leg and kicked at Yu Kexin.

Yu Kexin's body fell off the ground and then crashed into the ground. She tried to stand up but was unable to, so she laid on the ground and stared at Mu Shuo as she vomited blood.

The moment Yu Kexin was kicked flying, she took out the dagger that was stabbed into her body.

I saw that blood was spurting out from Mu Shuo's wound as the dagger was pulled out.

Mu Shuo raised his hand to cover his wound, his eyes staring even colder than before.

After Yu Kexin landed, she covered her wound with the black curved blade, and calmly walked towards Yu Kexin.

As Mu Shuo got closer, Yu Kexin panicked and asked Aunt Tao for help.

Aunt Tao nodded at her calmly, but Yu Kexin conceded immediately.

The one who got the first place in the arena battle was Mu Shuo!

The people who bet on Mu Shuo to win all cheered, and the people who bet on Yu Kexin to win all had bitter expressions.

The old man that came with Mu Shuo ran downstairs in a fluster.

After Yu Kexin admitted her defeat, her footsteps did not pause even a little as she approached Yu Kexin.

Yu Kexin looked at her in fear, then laid on the ground and tried to shrink back.

Aunt Tao stood there motionlessly, while the old man who came with Mu Shuo blocked Mu Shuo's way when he was almost in front of him.

I can't hear what the old man said to Mu Shuo, but Mu Shuo and the rest of the old man glanced at Yu Kexin and followed him out of the stage.

I heaved a sigh of relief in my heart as I looked at Aunt Tao. Aunt Tao was still standing there, with no intention of going downstairs to take care of Yu Kexin.

As I watched Yu Kexin being carried down the stage, I couldn't help but to ask Aunt Tao if we should go down to take a look at Yu Kexin.

The Aunt Tao shook her head and said no, he wanted me to go downstairs to get the money.

I hesitated and didn't move. I didn't want Yu Kexin to know that Aunt Tao was betting on Mu Shuo.

After the Aunt Tao asked me why I hadn't left yet, I didn't dare to hesitate and immediately went downstairs to get the money. In a short period of time, five hundred thousand became one million.

When I took the money, I saw that in the hall on the first floor, on the side where I had been standing at the highest level, there was a special medical team in the rooms with the doors wide open.

Mu Shuo and Yu Kexin were in different rooms, receiving treatment.

I took the money and immediately went upstairs, so that Yu Kexin wouldn't see me.

When I went upstairs, I checked the time. It was already past five in the afternoon.

When I went upstairs, I gave all the cash cheques to Aunt Tao. Aunt Tao left a cheque for 500,000 yuan and then handed the rest of the cheques back to me.

I refuse to accept money, Aunt Tao said. She said that the losers would be hers and the winners would be mine.

Seeing that Aunt Tao was in a bad mood, I didn't dare to decline anymore. After receiving the cash cheque, I carefully placed it in my backpack, and once I return, I would hand the money over to Aunt Zhen.

Five hundred thousand was a huge sum of money to me, the Aunt Zhen had taken good care of me, I did not have any place to spend money.

Not long after, it was time for dinner again. Just like last time, the round table in the room was filled with food.

After Aunt Tao started to eat, I picked up my chopsticks and started to eat.

As I ate, I wondered what Yu Kexin had said to Mu Shuo when she had jumped up and used her black curved blade to close in on her.

With just a few words, she was able to stop Mu Shuo's attack. She definitely recognized Mu Shuo.

On the Life and Death Arena, even if she was deceiving and even if she almost took Mu Shuo's life, based on Mu Shuo's usual behavior, he would not even think about taking her life after she admitted defeat.

Could it be that Yu Kexin recognized Mu Shuo, but Mu Shuo did not?

Or could it be that Yu Kexin and Mu Shuo were enemies in the first place?

Mu Shuo and the old man who came with him were all on the second floor, where there were the most people.

If that was the case, the reason why Mu Shuo participated in the arena battle this time was to amaze the world with his sect's name.

The old man was obviously the leader of the sect, but if he was able to produce a disciple like Mu Shuo, then his own ability must be higher, and the sect's rank must be more important, then why did he keep the sect unknown?

"What are you thinking about?" Aunt Tao had stopped eating at some point in time.

"No …." I was thinking that my heart must be hungry too. " Aunt Tao's questioning broke my train of thoughts. I raised my head and fell into Aunt Tao's probing eyes.

"She has shamed her Pure Lady Sect. Not only will she be hungry, she will also have to accept punishment when she returns." Aunt Tao's tone was very indifferent.

"Is it just because she didn't get first place?" I couldn't help but ask.

In my opinion, Yu Kexin's abilities are already good enough, and it's already enough for me to risk it all for victory.

"I don't care about her ranking. She has yet to learn how to be a true person." Aunt Tao continued to eat.

I didn't ask any further, Aunt Tao's two simple sentences already gave me the answer, Aunt Tao is angry at Yu Kexin's final trick.

I'm even more curious, what exactly did Yu Kexin tell Mu Shuo.

After the meal, Aunt Tao took me out of the hotel and didn't participate.

I didn't see Zuo Mu at the party and I had an indescribable feeling in my heart.

I really want to stay in the hotel for a little longer, so that I can get a chance to ask Mu Shuo if he knows Zuo Mu.

I still inexplicably felt that once I found Mu Shuo, I should be a little closer to him.

However, I didn't dare disobey Aunt Tao's orders, so I could only follow her and leave the hotel.

On the way back, I regretted that I didn't take the opportunity to talk to Mu Shuo when I went downstairs to get the money.

When I thought about how there was someone standing guard at the door of Mu Shuo's treatment room, and about how the Aunt Tao was still watching me from upstairs, I shook my head.

I decided that once I separated from the Aunt Tao, I would go to that hotel.

Even if I don't get my invitation from Aunt Tao, which is still in Aunt Tao's hands, I will still have the chance to see Mu Shuo again after choosing an intersection to guard.

I carelessly asked Aunt Zhen why Zuo Mu didn't attend the gathering, and Aunt Tao said that she didn't know either.

Aunt Tao did not immediately leave after sending me back home. She stayed until around 9 in the evening.

It wasn't too late, but it was too late for me, and it was hard to find a reasonable reason why it would take a long time to get out of the house at this point.

The hotel where the party was held was far away from where I was staying, and I could not afford to delay any longer than I needed to on the way back and forth.

I was in my room, burning with impatience, and I had never felt so much revulsion for the bondage of my present life.

When Aunt Zhen heard my painful cry, I hurriedly went out to take a look. It turned out that Aunt Zhen had accidentally twisted his ankle, causing the small bones in his ankle to be dislocated.

I have to get my bones straight as soon as possible. I don't know when Aunt Zhang has something to do, so I won't do it straight away. Seeing that Aunt Zhen is in unbearable pain, I carried her and left home, preparing to go to the nearest hospital to get an emergency treatment.

Aunt Zhen is very thin, it's not hard for me to carry her on my back.

After Aunt Zhen and I got into a taxi, the Aunt Zhen reported the name of a hospital to the taxi driver.

The hospital mentioned by Aunt Zhen was not far from the hotel where the gathering would be held.

I didn't have time to be surprised that the Aunt Zhen would actually give up on getting further and further away, and immediately had a reaction from my heart.

On the way there, Aunt Zhen told me that she had picked a hospital that was very good at treating falling injuries.

He went to the hospital to hang up the emergency medicine, and not long after that, Aunt Zhen went to sleep.

First, I asked her how long it would take for the infusion to end, and then told her that I needed to go out for a while because I had something to do. I asked her to slow down her movements when she changed the water in the Aunt Zhen so that she wouldn't wake the Aunt Zhen up.

After the nurse answered, I reminded her that if the Aunt Zhen woke up before I returned, she would say that I had something to do and had left.

After instructing the nurse, I jogged out of the hospital and headed towards the hotel.

After I got off the car not far away from one of the crossroads, I stood guard in the dark by the side of the road, hoping to catch sight of Mu Shuo.

As time passed, no one came out of the intersection. I stared at the intersection, feeling anxious.

Seeing that it was almost time, and that I had to return back to the hospital, I finally saw Mu Shuo in my line of sight!

Mu Shuo frowned slightly as he walked towards the intersection I was guarding. Behind him, there was also the old man who was attending the gathering with him.
