Chapter 19: Escaping from Partial Parents
The fact that there was an explanation and an indenture agreement showed that Jiuxiao Arena did not want to be enemies with the Mu family, and the same was true for Mu Nanyue.

She knew that the rules of the fighting arena had always been like this. The identity of the buyer was not considered, only whether the buyer could be happy.

If you are lucky, the indentured slave can be bought. If you are unlucky, he will be killed by the monster and no one will care.

The fact that Douchang can return Mu Shuyi is already the biggest concession.

Mu Nanyue knew very well that Jiuxiao Arena was not the culprit, but she couldn't swallow this.

How could Mu Nanyue not mind when the person she wanted to protect was hurt and almost died?
"By the way, I have the seller's appearance." Seeing that her complexion had improved but she was still gloomy, the leader of the guards took out a portrait and said, "Miss Mu, would you like to take a look?"

He gave in again, and Mu Nanyue took a deep breath, "Okay."

Just bear with it for now, and wait for a chance later...

Mu Nanyue took the portrait without looking at it. Her eyes fell on Mu Shuyi who was hiding behind someone, and her expression gradually softened.

As long as people are still alive.

"Let's go home first."

Mu Shuyi took the healing pill and recovered a lot. She was a little confused, but she knew that she was rescued.

It was so easy. Just two sentences were enough to pull her out of the dark and desperate situation.

For a moment, Mu Shuyi felt mixed emotions.

Before she could thank him, Mu Nanyue, who was walking in front, was blocked by someone.

The young man who wanted to buy Mu Shuyi before had a smile on his face. He was dressed in a white robe as white as snow, and gently waved a spiritual fan in his hand, looking very elegant and dashing.

He stared at Mu Nanyue and said with a half-smile: "I lie so easily. How come I didn't know you have a sister?"

"I said yes, if she recognizes you, you are my sister." Mu Nanyue raised her eyebrows and looked at him with amusement, "Are you jealous? Otherwise, I will also recognize you as my brother."

Shen Minghe sneered, his hearty voice slightly sarcastic: "No, I don't want to get involved with idiots, it will be contagious."

After these words came out, Mu Nanyue took several steps back, and said with disgust: "Why didn't you say it earlier? Don't infect me with your stupidity!"

Shen Minghe: “…”

"How dare you scold me!" He lost his temper and his expression changed immediately.

Shen Minghe was about to take action when he discovered that the people around Mu Nanyue had higher cultivation levels than his guards.

After thinking about it, he was very self-aware and said stubbornly: "Forget it, why should I bother with a fool?"

Mu Nanyue: “…” Hehe.

Shen Minghe coughed lightly and casually pointed at Mu Shuyi behind him.

"She, I want it."

He looked like he was just informing her, which annoyed Mu Nanyue, "I want to give it to you just because you want it? Do you think all the Mu family members are dead?"

"It's just a little girl of unknown identity. Why are you in such a hurry?"

Shen Minghe looked surprised and said sourly: "You didn't seem to feel sorry for giving so many valuable things to Fu Qian'an. You got mad when I asked you for a person. You are really hypocritical!"

"What do you mean by unknown origin? She is from the side branch of the Mu family." Mu Nanyue frowned slightly and said in a cold voice: "Get out!"

This guy is Pei Yinghuai's good brother.

And she had a conflict with Pei Yinghuai, so she had frequent quarrels with Shen Minghe.

"No, hit me if you dare!" Shen Minghe raised his chin, looking like a rogue, "Unless you hand over the person, you can't leave."

As soon as he finished speaking, the guards around him stood in front of him.

Mu Nanyue didn't want to waste time with him, so she waved her hand and said, "If you want to be beaten, I'll grant your wish!"

Yun Feng drew out his sharp sword expressionlessly and disappeared in an instant.

Sensing the danger coming, Shen Minghe shrank his neck, closed his eyes and shouted: "Brother, come quickly!"

"Bang——" A delicate dagger appeared out of thin air and quickly repelled Yun Feng. Then a dark figure fell from the sky.

Pei Yinghuai raised his hand to recall the magic weapon. He pursed his thin lips, and his handsome features looked even more enchanting under the light.

Seeing him, Mu Nanyue was stunned for a moment before she realized that Shen Minghe was delaying time.

"Brother, you're finally here." Shen Minghe breathed a sigh of relief and approached with a smile, "But how do you know that this love-brained person has left Qinghua City at this late hour?"

Mu Nanyue: “?” Love-brained?

Well, why not?

No one answered his curious question. Pei Yinghuai stared at Mu Nanyue with his deep eyes and said in a deep voice, "You left the city overnight, not to escape, but to save people?"

Mu Nanyue glanced at Shen Minghe beside him and said nonchalantly: "Don't you already know?"

Besides, why was she running?
Even though he knew it was a misunderstanding, Pei Yinghuai was still worried. A complex look flashed across his sharp black eyes. "I want to hear you say it."

"What? Do I need to report to you before I leave the city?" Mu Nanyue frowned, "I don't have time, get out of the way."

"You--" Shen Minghe gritted his teeth. He didn't like her attitude.

It was already late at night, and Pei Yinghuai went alone to look for Mu Nanyue overnight. He must have been worried about her safety, but she was ungrateful.

He was about to say something swearing, but Pei Yinghuai raised his hand to stop him.

"No." Pei Yinghuai made way and looked down at Mu Nanyue, "I'm just afraid that you'll leave, not that I want to control you."

When passing by him, Mu Nanyue stopped and glanced at him lightly, "That's good. If you want to control everything I do, I will consider changing people."

Hearing this, Pei Yinghuai's pupils shrank, and he seemed to have suddenly figured something out in his mind. He said in a hoarse voice, "Change people? Who do you want to change?"

Mu Nanyue frowned, her eyes vaguely falling on Shen Minghe, "He's not bad! He's good-looking and has a good figure!"

Pei Yinghuai followed her gaze, and his cold eyes also fell on Shen Minghe. He concealed the tears in his eyes and chuckled.

Shen Minghe: “…”

Stop laughing, brother. I'm scared.

In fact, when Mu Nanyue looked at him, he already had a bad feeling in his heart.

Now it seems that there must be something between Mu Nanyue and Pei Yinghuai that he doesn't know.

And from the conversation between the two, Shen Minghe guessed that he would not be able to escape tonight.

Sure enough, the next moment.

Pei Yinghuai grabbed his collar with his bony hands, and the two of them disappeared in an instant.

Mu Nanyue shrugged, and the anger in her heart finally dissipated a little, "Let's go."

……

Xuantian Inn.

"Miss, thank you for saving me..." Mu Shuyi took a shower and put on clean and fitting clothes, her expression still in a trance.

Mu Nanyue patted the chair next to her, motioning her to sit down, and whispered softly: "We are a family, call me sister from now on."

This startled Mu Shuyi again. She stood up as soon as she sat down and shook her head hurriedly, "Miss, this won't work."

If her parents knew, they would scold her for not knowing the rules and might even hit her!

On the way back, Mu Nanyue had already found out about her situation.

Thinking of her parents favoring her younger brother, beating and scolding Mu Shuyi, and her younger brother selling her to the Jiuxiao Arena for others to play with, completely disregarding her life or death...

Mu Nanyue's eyes flashed coldly, but she smiled gently: "Just shout like that, I said! Besides, you have been chosen by the Great Elder, and you will enter the secret realm for training in three months."

Mu Shuyi looked stunned and didn't react for a moment, then she exclaimed in surprise: "I, I was chosen?!"
