My wife is a reborn big boss
Chapter 29 Did I miss something?
"What?"
Wu Qiong stared blankly at the beautiful face so close to his own.
"It's nothing."
The young woman released her grip, took two steps back, lowered her eyes, and resumed her expressionless state.
Beside him, Jie Se, looking equally bewildered, asked, "Brother Wu, is this one of your confidantes?"
A cold glint flashed in the young woman's eyes: "One of them?"
Wu Qiong racked his brains, and suddenly an idea struck him: "So, Xiao Bai, you're not going to refute the 'confidante'?"
The future leader of the Demonic Sect was indeed distracted.
She calmly replied, "Isn't that so?"
Well, although the little white girl's expression seemed calm and composed, her bright red ears still betrayed her.
Wu Qiong looked at her tenderly and smiled.
"What are you laughing at?" The little girl avoided his gaze, not daring to meet his eyes.
"Little Bai, you're so cute." Wu Qiong's voice grew even gentler.
"Cute" and all that... no one had ever dared to say that to her. The blush on the little girl's ears quietly spread to her face, and even started to spread to her neck.
The first time someone called me cute, and it was him again. It felt...not bad...
Trying to calm her increasingly rapid heartbeat, the young woman said coldly, "Glib talker."
Wu Qiong didn't answer, but continued to look at her gently. The future "Yellow Spring Demon Emperor" had never been afraid of anyone, and Zhen raised her head slightly to stare straight at him.
They just stared at each other like that, as if they were the only two people in the world at that moment.
The person who was refusing to quit pornography felt hurt.
He wanted to be the kind of Fahai who would break up a loving couple:
"Ahem... Brother Wu, may I ask who this gentleman is?"
The atmosphere was broken when Wu Qiong turned around and exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? What's Master Abstinence doing here?"
This humble monk is going to smash your dog head in!
Despite his resolve to abstain from sex, he couldn't resist breaking his vow to kill.
"Hehe." He gave a forced smile.
Wu Qiong smiled apologetically: "Master, please don't be offended. This is Miss Su Mubai."
The abstinence Buddha's body trembled: "The third on the Human Ranking, 'Yellow Spring Demoness' Su Mubai?"
Wu Qiong subtly stepped aside, blocking the young woman's path: "Master, do you wish to eliminate demons and uphold justice?"
Abstinence solemnly asked, "Has Miss Su ever indiscriminately killed innocent people?"
Su Mubai's voice was calm: "Never."
Not counting her past life, in this life she came looking for Wu Qiong as soon as she left the mountain. As for Ye Liangchen of Tingyu Pavilion, the former number one on the Human Ranking that she killed, who was he? Little White Girl had long forgotten.
Jiese relaxed: "Then why should I eliminate demons and protect the righteous path? Not all demons are necessarily bad people. Brother Wu, don't be so rigid."
"..." Are all the righteous paths in this world this enlightened? Why is it different from what he saw in novels in his previous life? Wu Qiong was speechless.
He secretly rolled his eyes and turned to Su Mubai, saying, "This is Abbot Xuankong of Shaolin Temple, a disciple of Abbot Xuankong, ranked fifth on the Human Ranking, Master Jiese."
The young woman nodded as a greeting.
She knew that this woman, one of the most promising talents of her generation, the future abbot of Shaolin Temple, was a master who had already risen to the top of the Heavenly Rankings before the age of forty. But... she was nothing to worry about. Because she was the 'World-Slaying Demon Emperor' Su Mubai!
Jiese looked up at the sky: "It's still early. Why don't we go up the mountain while it's still light? We've traveled so far, we can rest earlier once we get up there."
Wu Qiong had just explained that he had been entrusted by Li Jianshi to deliver the message, so Jie Se invited him to come up the mountain with him.
"This..." Wu Qiong looked at Su Mubai beside him, looking slightly embarrassed.
The little girl just stared at him intently: "I want to be with you."
Jiese comforted her, saying, "It's alright. My master is the most understanding person. Since Miss Su has not done anything immoral, our temple has absolutely no reason to harm her."
"Xiaobai, wait for me here. I'll come back to you as soon as I'm done," Wu Qiong said softly.
Su Mubai simply stared at him, repeating each word slowly and deliberately: "I want to be with you."
The veins on the forehead of the person who was trying to comfort him were bulging, and his fists were gradually clenched.
Suddenly, a glint of light flashed in his eyes, and an idea came to him.
"Speaking of which, why would Li Jianshi entrust Brother Wu to deliver the message? Shouldn't such an important matter be handled by a disciple of the Xuantian Sect in person? Could it be that Brother Wu is very familiar with her?" Jie Se asked casually, his voice sounding very honest.
"Li Jianshi!" A cold glint flashed in the little white girl's eyes, realizing that things were not so simple.
Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Wu Qiong, the murderous aura of the once-powerful Demon Sect Master radiating from her. She was waiting for Wu Qiong to give her an explanation.
The pressure was mounting, and cold sweat beaded on Wu Qiong's forehead: "Don't talk nonsense."
He turned his head, looked directly into the young woman's eyes, and said sincerely, "She and I only had a simple yet dirty monetary transaction at Sean Manor."
Su Mubai lowered her gaze slightly. Her time spent together in her previous life had taught her many of Wu Qiong's habits.
For example, when he lies, he will look you straight in the eye sincerely, and after telling the lie, he will add a sentence...
"Little Bai, you have to believe me!"
"..."
There was definitely an affair!
Her heart was filled with hatred. This hatred was not directed at Wu Qiong, nor at Li Jianshi, but at... Xieyue Valley.
If it weren't for the fact that Xieyue Valley had secretly betrayed the Xieji Sect, she wouldn't have rushed to wipe them out! If she hadn't gone to wipe them out, she would have gone to Xien Manor with Wu Qiong! Even if going to Xien Manor caused Li Jianshi to leave the mountain ahead of time because of her changing the past, she wouldn't have allowed that bitch to have any contact with Wu Qiong!
It's all the fault of the Crescent Moon Valley!
Once she got back, she burned all the books about Crescent Moon Valley, completely erasing the last connection between the sect and the world!
Seeing that Su Mubai was ignoring him, Wu Qiong looked at her cautiously: "Xiaobai?"
The young woman snapped out of her daze, looking at Wu Qiong before her with an even colder expression. But inwardly, she couldn't help but sigh, "I really can't stay angry with him. This man is truly my nemesis..."
She spoke calmly, her voice devoid of any emotion: "I'll go with you."
Realizing he was in the wrong, Wu Qiong dared not refuse again and could only nod in agreement.
A silence fell between them.
The person next to him wanted to break the silence, but his intuition told him that if he spoke now, he would probably suffer a terrible fate.
At this moment, Ye Qingxuan, who had been lying on the table, slowly woke up. He sat up and gently touched his forehead: "Brother Wu, I really can't drink anymore."
No one answered.
Sensing something was amiss, he used his internal energy to expel the alcohol from his body, and looked at the three silent figures before him with a bewildered expression: "Did I miss something?"
