"Xiao Tianhao?"

"Why are you here?"

Just after Xiao Tianhao made a few sarcastic remarks, Li Muchen returned to Li Quzhuo's place.

Although the two are childhood sweethearts and friends who grew up together.

However, Li Muchen's attitude towards Xiao Tianhao was neither cold nor indifferent.

Seeing this, Li Quzhuo smiled and left, since he had already done what he had promised.

There's no need to stay here now.

"Mu Chen, I'm here to see my second brother."

"The jade flute was previously entrusted to my second brother for repair, and today is the perfect day to pick it up."

Xiao Tianhao's eyes lit up the moment he saw Li Muchen.

Even a fool could see that Xiao Tianhao was interested in Li Muchen.

However, his deliberate approach caused Li Muchen to take two steps back.

"Oh, I see."

"Then take your things and head back quickly."

Li Muchen nodded, then looked at Rainbow Cat.

Seeing that Li Muchen didn't seem to care about her and instead walked towards Hongmao, she realized that Li Muchen was ignoring her and instead walked towards Hongmao.

Xiao Tianhao couldn't help but think of what Li Quzhuo had just said.

"Mu Chen, how could you associate with the demon race?"

"If the Dao Alliance Inspector finds out, that would be troublesome."

Seeing Li Muchen walk to Hongmao's side, Xiao Tianhao immediately spoke up to stop him.

The Dao Alliance was jointly established by various powerful families, which is why the Dao Alliance can keep the powerful families in check.

The Inspectors are the law enforcers within the Dao Alliance, and they also have the power to arrest those who violate the rules of the Dao Alliance.

Generally speaking, prominent families like the Li and Zhang families would never deign to take on the role of an inspector.

Because the scope of the supervisory authority and the power it possesses are simply insufficient to restrain a scion of a powerful family like Li Muchen.

"Oh?"

"So, you're going to send the Xiao family's inspector to see me?"

Li Muchen frowned slightly and immediately looked at Xiao Tianhao with some dissatisfaction.

Without exception, she took Xiao Tianhao's words as a provocation.

"Mu Chen, how is this possible?"

"I'm just afraid you'll be deceived by the demon race."

Xiao Tianhao's expression changed. He naturally knew Li Muchen's temper, and immediately shook his head repeatedly.

Seeing him like this, Rainbow Cat knew he couldn't stay there any longer.

"Miss Li, I have now completed the task I was assigned to here."

"I wonder when Miss Li will be able to escort me back."

Rainbow Cat clasped his hands in a fist salute and looked at Li Muchen in front of him.

He didn't want to get too entangled with someone like Xiao Tianhao.

If he had had the chance, he would have killed Xiao Tianhao, because the other party also harbored murderous intent towards him.

But if he leaves here, and Xiao Tianhao catches up with him, and if Xiao Tianhao has the help of his family, then Rainbow Cat knows he will definitely suffer a loss.

When traveling alone, you can't solve problems by acting impulsively, and Hongmao is well aware of this.

Let's call it a day.

"I'll see you off again first thing tomorrow morning."

"As for him, you don't need to worry about him."

Li Muchen immediately noticed Hongmao's worry; she could also sense the spiritual energy emanating from the two during their fight.

I understand now that Xiao Tianhao must have attacked Hongmao just now.

So, when she turned her head, she glared at Xiao Tianhao again.

"In that case, Rainbow Cat will not disturb your reminiscing any longer."

Rainbow Cat didn't want to cause trouble, so after learning the time, he immediately decided to go and rest first.

Li Muchen did not stop him. After Hongmao left, he turned his gaze to Xiao Tianhao beside him.

"Xiao Tianhao, didn't I tell you not to meddle in my affairs?"

"I don't care if he's human or demon, as long as he's useful to me, I don't care."

"This is the last time I'm telling you, don't interfere in my affairs."

Li Muchen's words were anything but polite; she didn't want to encounter any obstacles.

Especially the people around her. Even though she had thought since childhood that Xiao Tianhao was just like her, living among a group of dazzling people.

She was the most pitiful marginalized person among the younger generation of the Dao Alliance.

She even considered sticking together with Xiao Tianhao for mutual support.

But Xiao Tianhao was ultimately just the son of a merchant, and ultimately just an ordinary person who had climbed up from a noble family.

Even if the two have the same talent, and even if the young master of the Xiao family has more resources and money than she, the third young lady of the Li family.

However, Li Muchen looked down on Xiao Tianhao's ideas and family background, feeling that the two were not the same kind of people.

She has ambitions, and she doesn't care at all if those ambitions require her to lose her identity and her family.

"I understand, Mu Chen. I won't say anything more..."

"Tomorrow, I'll have someone send that cat demon away for you, and then we'll go to Heavenly Immortal City."

"Let's go to Celestial City. I'll accompany you to clear your mind, how about it?"

Xiao Tianhao looked somewhat embarrassed, but immediately asked Li Muchen.

His affection for Li Muchen was no secret within the Dao Alliance.

Therefore, he didn't feel that Li Muchen had done anything wrong in treating him this way.

She simply directed all her resentment at Rainbow Cat.

"No need. There's nothing to do in Celestial City to relax in."

"Go back now. I'll come to you when I need your help."

Li Muchen's expression showed some impatience. He waved his hand at Xiao Tianhao and then left.

She knew perfectly well that Xiao Tianhao liked her, but she didn't feel that way at all.

In Li Muchen's view, the man she would marry in the future did not need to be a peerless hero, nor did he need to be rich.

But at the very least, they must be able to help me and have the same ambition as me.

As for Xiao Tianhao, he's just a useless person who only cares about personal relationships and material possessions.

"Could it be that Mu Chen has fallen for that cat demon?"

"Otherwise, why would you treat me like this?"

"We had already agreed to go to Celestial City; I wanted to give her a surprise."

"hateful!"

"It's all that cat demon's fault! Not only did it embarrass me in the Xiao family, but it even dared to lay a hand on Mu Chen!"

Xiao Tianhao clenched his fists, his eyes filled with murderous intent as he looked at the house where Rainbow Cat lived.

Li Muchen, however, was unaware of Xiao Tianhao's thoughts.

They arrived at Li Quzhuo's room.

"If I find out again that you've used a magic weapon to eavesdrop on me, then..."

"I'll definitely smash this house to pieces, and I won't leave you a single magical artifact inside; I'll sell them all."

Li Muchen looked at Li Quzhuo with a cold expression, as if he were not talking to his second brother, but to an enemy.

Li Quzhuo, feeling guilty, put away the things on the table and looked at Li Muchen with a smile.

"Second brother, this isn't out of concern for you."

Why are you so angry?

"Xiao Tianhao is actually quite nice, and he likes you a lot."
