"Sister Mo, where are we going?”Mu Chuxue raised her small face and asked. Going out on such a hot day was really a wrong choice. At least they should have hired a carriage.
Mo Shangqiu ignored her dissatisfied expression and continued walking slowly. "To a sword shop."
"Why are you going to the sword shop? Do you want to buy a sword?”Mu Chuxue's face was full of questions. However, she thought about how Mo Shangqiu always faced enemies empty-handed and indeed needed a weapon. She had to thank her master for giving her a good weapon. Otherwise, he did not know what would happen if he fought with others.
"We'll know when we get there!" Mo Shangqiu replied calmly, thinking about how to kill the enemy without weapons.
Mo Shangqiu led Mu Chuxue to walk a few streets before they arrived at the most famous swordsmithing shop in Xuanlin Nation.
Along the way, Mu Chuxue kept complaining, but she also followed Mo Shangqiu's footsteps strenuously. No matter how unwilling she was, it was not as good as Mo Shangqiu abandoning her.
When he was still some distance away from the smithy, he could hear the clanging sounds coming from inside. The closer he got, the higher the temperature around him.
Walking in, the air was filled with the smell of sweat. There was also a stuffy feeling that made one feel suffocated. Mo Shangqiu stood inside and adjusted her breathing before feeling much better.
Mu Chuxue's forehead was already covered with a layer of sweat, and she kept wiping it with a handkerchief. The corners of her eyes twitched uncontrollably. If she had known that Mo Shangqiu would come to this damned place, she would rather stay in the Ye Residence and live a life where she could get her hands on her clothes and food.
Mo Shangqiu no longer paid attention to Mu Chuxue and strolled around alone. Looking at the various weapons inside, she was speechless. It was obvious that these weapons were not made of good materials, and the blades were not up to her standards.
Mo Shangqiu shook her head and slowly walked past the weapons. She was not used to using hammers and spears. The swordsmith could not stand it anymore and walked over.
"Miss, what weapon do you want to buy?”From the moment Mo Shangqiu entered, he had already noticed them. However, seeing how Mo Shangqiu was very dissatisfied with the sword he had forged, he was curious about what kind of weapon Mo Shangqiu wanted.
"Master, what is the best sword you have here?”Mo Shangqiu had always wanted a flexible sword that was both convenient and practical. However, after looking for a long time, he did not see a soft sword.
"Miss, all our swords are here. What kind of sword do you want?”The swordsmith pointed at the pile of swords in front of Mo Shangqiu with a troubled expression. There was not a single sword that caught Mo Shangqiu's eye.
"Master, are there no flexible swords here?”Mo Shangqiu found it strange. Xuanlin Country was still the largest country, so why was it so difficult to buy a flexible sword?
When the swordsmith heard that Mo Shangqiu wanted to buy a flexible sword, he revealed a faint smile. A good swordsmith would not blindly sell the sword he forged. A good sword would naturally be worthy of a person who understood and cherished the sword.
A sword could not only kill, but it could also open up a path for oneself.
"Miss, if you want to buy a flexible sword, I recommend you go to the Heavenly Nuo Jie. The Heavenly Nuo Jie is a famous Soft Sword City. Perhaps you will be able to find a good sword.”Alisritter reminded Mo Shangqiu out of kindness, without the slightest bit of compassion.
Mo Shangqiu finally revealed a smile. Even though he did not manage to buy a sword, he had obtained some good information.
"Thank you for your guidance, Master.”Mo Shangqiu cupped her hands and bid farewell. She did not stay any longer and pulled Mu Chuxue out of the sword shop.
"Miss, take care." The swordsmith's deep voice came from behind, making people feel at ease.
Inside, Mu Chuxue's face was already red from the heat, and her eyes were starting to blur. If Mo Shangqiu hadn't pulled her away, she would probably have fainted inside.
Mo Shangqiu didn't feel it too strongly. At most, she felt a little stuffy inside. She didn't know why Mu Chuxue had such a big reaction.
Actually, this was all due to the frost bug poison in Mo Shangqiu's body, which prevented her from being as strong as Mu Chuxue.
"Sister Mo, where are we going?”Mu Chuxue placed her hand on her forehead. The feeling of dizziness almost made her unable to stand on her feet. She had just recovered from her illness and after half a day of torture, her body began to collapse, and her footsteps were ethereal.
"Let's go back to my father's residence.”Mo Shangqiu could not bear to see Mu Chuxue walk to the Public House again. After all, she had just fallen ill and her health was not very good.
Mo Shangqiu leaped into the bazaar and Mu Chuxue was in a daze, unable to find Mo Shangqiu's figure. She could only wait on the spot.
After a quarter of an hour, a horse carriage came to the place where Mu Chuxue was staying. As soon as the carriage stopped, Mo Shangqiu jumped off the carriage and helped Mu Chuxue onto it.
As expected, the temperature around the carriage dropped significantly, and it immediately became comfortable. Mu Chuxue's red face revealed a weak smile. If one looked closely, one would see that her body was actually exhausted.
The carriage headed straight for the Duke of Chen's Public House. At this moment, the people from the Duke's Public House were having their meals. When Mo Shangqiu and the other woman returned to the residence, they happened to bump into a family living in harmony.
He had wanted to bring Mu Chuxue back to his own house, but his stomach had failed him and he was hungry. He could only join in the fun.
When Chen Shuheng saw that Mo Shangqiu had returned, a benevolent smile appeared on his face."Daughter, you're back. Have you eaten?”
Mo Shangqiu pursed her lips and said nonchalantly," Not yet. I went to pick up a friend."”
"Come, go and get two sets of cutlery.”Chen Shu Heng immediately fawned over him and ordered the servants.
Chen Fuxi's face was dark as she glared at Mo Shangqiu. She had already told her father about what happened this morning. You're going to suffer. Chen Fuxi looked at Mo Shangqiu's gloating expression and did not care about the occasion.
Mo Shangqiu remained silent and gloated. It was still unknown who would win and who would lose.
Just as Mo Shangqiu was about to sit down, a gentle voice sounded.："This is the younger sister who just returned."
Mo Shangqiu followed the voice and looked over. She saw a man in his early twenties sitting beside Chen Fuxi. He was dressed in a white robe, with sharp eyebrows and narrow phoenix eyes. She had a high nose bridge and a wicked smile on her good-looking lips, making her look seductive.
Mo Shangqiu was slightly astonished. This face actually bore a 90% resemblance to her brother. At this moment, Mo Shangqiu didn't know whether to sit or stand. She just stood there in a daze.
Chen Fuxi snorted disdainfully. Everyone who saw her brother's face was shocked. However, her brother was hers. No one could snatch him away.
"Quickly sit down and eat." Chen Junxi opened his mouth to remind Mo Shangqiu. His gentle voice did not match his devilish appearance.
Mo Shangqiu pulled Mu Chuxue to sit down. She did not forget to look at Chen Fuxi's brother. Why did they look so similar? Other than that seductive aura, the rest was really too similar to her brother.
Mo Shangqiu ate her meal with a heavy heart. There was no one in the middle to disturb the quiet and strange atmosphere.
Mo Shangqiu put down her bowl and chopsticks and stood up."Father, I'm full. I'll go back first.”
At this moment, Chen Shu Heng raised his head, his gaze somewhat sharp. "Come to my study tonight."
Mo Shangqiu was a little depressed by his gaze. It seemed that he had not offended Chen Shuheng. Seeing Chen Fuxi gloating over his misfortune, Mo Shangqiu felt a little depressed. He understood in his heart. He nodded and brought Mu Chuxue back to her room.
Mo Shangqiu's thoughts drifted along the way. She wanted to make a trip to the Heavenly Nuo Realm in a few days. He wanted to see if he could find a good flexible sword.
Unknowingly, the scenery around Mo Shangqiu kept becoming unfamiliar. Mo Shangqiu came back to her senses and looked at the few large words in front of her.'Xuanyu Residence', where was this?
Just as Mo Shangqiu was about to turn around and leave this unfamiliar place, an unexpected person appeared behind her.
"Since Younger Sister has come to my courtyard, why don't you come in and have a seat?”Chen Junxi was gentle and refined. He waved the paper fan in his hand and looked at Mo Shangqiu, who was about to turn around and leave.
Mo Shangqiu couldn't help but laugh, not hiding the thoughts in his heart at all. Even if Chen Junxi was Chen Fuxi's brother, she could not hate him. She couldn't be ruthless to someone who looked like her brother.
"Big brother, little sister is tired today. I will come to visit big brother another day.”Although Mo Shangqiu was happy to see him, she was still tired after a long day. Mu Chuxue couldn't hold on any longer. It was better to go back early.
Chen Junxi knew that Mo Shangqiu had just returned from the outside world today. Although her face was filled with joy, it could not hide her tiredness. She looked at her friend, who was in a worse condition than her, and she did not look too good either. He did not make things difficult for Mo Shangqiu and let her go back.
Chen Junxi nodded his head in agreement to Mo Shangqiu bringing Mu Chuxue away. He watched as Mo Shangqiu's figure gradually disappeared into the distance. Thinking about what Xi 'er had said this morning, he felt that Mo Shangqiu was not a person who would pester him.
Mo Shangqiu's actions were indeed inconsistent with what Xi 'er had said, but he knew very well what kind of person his younger sister was. It was not bad to have someone to clean up his unruly sister. Chen Junxi smiled and walked into his own house, Xuanyu House.
Mo Shangqiu and Mu Chuxue returned to Qiuxin Courtyard an hour later. Mo Shangqiu sat on a chair and poured two cups of water. He gave a cup to Mu Chuxue. As expected, this kind of weather was only suitable for staying at home to avoid the heat.
Mo Shangqiu asked Mu Chuxue to rest on the bed while she laid on the chaise longue and closed her eyes. She couldn't fall asleep, so she ordered Shuang 'er and Yue' er to come in and fan her. Shuang 'er was so angry that her eyes almost fell out, but she had to act as if nothing had happened.
Yue 'er was well-behaved. As a maid, she did not think that fanning Miss was too much. This was the difference between Shuang 'er and Yue' er.
She slept muddle-headedly until dusk. It was only when someone invited Mo Shangqiu to Chen Shuheng's study that she woke up. It seemed that having someone to fan was a wonderful thing. It would be a waste not to use it.
Chen Shuheng was already waiting for Mo Shangqiu in the study. The moment Mo Shangqiu entered, Chen Shuheng asked her to sit down. His expression changed and he started to scold her.
"Daughter, I hope you can get along with Xi 'er. Since you're sisters, you're family.”Chen Shuheng's tone was stern, but his eyes were as usual.
"Father is right. I just came back and indeed don't have the energy to fuss too much with sister.”Mo Shangqiu's words implied that it wasn't her fault and that Chen Fuxi was to blame for causing trouble first.
Chen Shu Heng was a little angry in his heart when he heard this, but his expression did not change. Why was Wan 'er so gentle and virtuous to give birth to such a daughter?" Your mother has always been virtuous and generous. You naturally have to learn more.”
Mo Shangqiu pursed her lips into a smile and said sarcastically,""Mother is indeed generous enough. She doesn't dare to refute when others slander her.”
