Chapter 62 She Was Really Greedy
The patterns on the broken shell can still be seen, faintly emitting the aura of a demon beast.
Mu Nanyue walked over quickly and squatted down, picked up the small piece of broken shell and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but frowned, "System, is this really a divine egg?"
It's too brittle!
The system investigated and said seriously: "Host, this is a divine egg~ But this egg has been broken a long time ago."
"What!" Mu Nanyue's face changed slightly. At this moment, footsteps were heard behind her. She heard Liu Yuehua nervously said, "What are you doing? Could it be that Miss Mu suspected that I was cheating?"
She raised her voice and her face looked trembling with anger, leaving no room for doubt.
Mu Nanyue seemed to be thinking about something. She stood up slowly and glanced at Liu Yuehua meaningfully. Her deep eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.
Liu Yuehua's heart tightened inexplicably, and she quickly calmed down as if she had thought of something, and her face returned to normal. Just as she was about to open her mouth to blame Mu Nanyue, she saw that the person had already left.
Liu Yuehua: “…”
She also took away the broken shells from the ground.
Liu Yuehua was afraid that she would run away, so she quickly dodged and chased after her, sneering: "Miss Mu, I don't want much of the dragon's heart blood, just two drops will do. Give it to me now, and we can put an end to the matter of smashing the divine egg, how about that?"
Seeing that she was a little anxious, Mu Nanyue curled her lips and smiled: "No!"
"You!" Liu Yuehua's face was gloomy, as if she had been fooled by her, and her hands hanging by her side clenched tightly.
Mu Nanyue didn't look at her angry face. She lifted her eyelids and glanced at Xiao Yanyu indifferently, sneering repeatedly: "You should be thankful that the idiot Mu Jinqian rushed over in advance and smashed the divine egg, otherwise..."
She paused, glanced at Liu Yuehua coldly, and continued: "Otherwise, the situation I am being forced into right now is what you, Xiao Yanyu, are experiencing."
After the words fell, Liu Yuehua's face stiffened, and a hint of disbelief flashed in her eyes.
And Xiao Yanyu was also confused.
He is an extremely smart man. After hearing Mu Nanyue's few words and Liu Yuehua's unconcealable panic, Xiao Yanyu seemed to have guessed something and the smile on his face gradually faded.
Mu Nanyue's fingertips flashed with spiritual power, and she took the opportunity to put the broken shell in front of him, raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Look, carefully."
Liu Yuehua wanted to stop him, but before she could say anything, Xiao Yanyu turned his head to look at her. His eyes, which could show deep affection even to a dog, were still gentle, yet revealed a bit of bone-chilling coldness.
Her heart trembled.
An invisible sense of fear enveloped her. Liu Yuehua did not try to stop him, otherwise it would be too obvious. She could only pray in secret, hoping that Xiao Yanyu would not notice.
At the same time, Liu Yuehua glanced at Mu Nanyue with hatred.
She gritted her teeth secretly, looking at him as if he were an enemy, angry but helpless, watching Xiao Yanyu examine the eggshell.
Not long after, Xiao Yanyu, who was a wood-type spiritual root and practiced the "All Things Penetration Technique", seemed to have noticed something, and his face looked as if he had eaten a fly.
It's so ugly!
Seeing that he had found out, Mu Nanyue shrugged her shoulders and then turned to watch a show.
Liu Yuehua's face was pale, and there was no pride between her eyebrows and eyes, only fear.
"Resurrection, spirit, fluid?" Xiao Yanyu gritted his teeth and spoke word by word. His bony fingers rubbed the eggshell carefully, and it broke with just a slight pinch. It didn't look like a divine beast's egg at all.
After all, the eggs of divine beasts have always contained powerful spiritual power and are extremely hard.
"Heh." Xiao Yanyu sneered, which made people's hair stand on end. He looked at Liu Yuehua expressionlessly, and the aura around him was extremely low. "You deliberately leaked the news that you had the divine egg and lured me to come and see it. You wanted to frame me, right?"
Liu Yuehua shook her head repeatedly, wanting to explain but not knowing how to start, "Brother Xiao, things are not what you think..."
"So what?" Xiao Yanyu laughed sarcastically, his eyes filled with indifference and alienation, "You got the divine egg in the secret realm, such a great opportunity, but you broke it with your own hands.
I guess you have sent back the message in advance. Now that the divine egg is broken, you can't explain to your master, and you are afraid of being punished. So you need to find a scapegoat, right?"
Hearing this, Liu Yuehua's face turned even paler, and she didn't dare to look Xiao Yanyu in the eye.
Seeing her panic-stricken look, Xiao Yanyu showed no mercy and continued to expose her: "If there hadn't been this accident with Mu Jinqian today, I would have been the one who broke the divine egg."
"And I am the eldest son of the Xiao family. I am fully capable of compensating you with other things, and I will feel guilty about this matter."
At this point, Xiao Yanyu curled his lips and said, "The final result will naturally be compensation from the Xiao family. And you are innocent, so naturally no one will blame you..."
From the beginning to the end, the only innocent person who was harmed was Xiao Yanyu.
Seeing the disappointment flashing in his eyes, Liu Yuehua's heart sank, and her voice trembled, "Brother Xiao, please listen to my explanation..."
"No need to say more!" Xiao Yanyu raised his hand. There was no smile in his eyes, but full of impatience.
"Miss Liu, please call me Young Master Xiao from now on. A woman who is so selfish and harms others, with such a vicious mind, is not worthy of being my sister."
He looked cold and distant. He turned around and left without even glancing at Liu Yuehua.
Looking at his resolute back, Liu Yuehua took a few steps back, feeling as if something important was being lost in her heart.
Her eyes were red, as if she suddenly remembered something, and she quickly raised her head to hold back her tears, "Mu Nanyue, it's all your fault!"
Mu Nanyue: "..."
Is there anything wrong with her brain?
"Miss Liu, what you said doesn't make sense. It was clearly you who directed and acted this out yourself, trying to frame Xiao Yanyu. Now that the truth has been exposed, you blame an outsider like me." Mu Nanyue said helplessly.
She looked at Liu Yuehua with a hint of pity in her eyes, "In the final analysis, you are too greedy. Since there is an unlucky guy helping your brother Xiao to be a scapegoat, you should stop while you are ahead."
Mu Nanyue smiled and said, “If I were you, I would immediately report this to the sect and say that it was Mu Jinqian who broke the divine egg.
Although you will be reprimanded, you don’t have to worry about the rest. Let the seniors from both sides come forward to negotiate. The final result will be many times better than this. What a pity~"
At the end, her tone was quite gloating.
Liu Yuehua was so angry that she gritted her teeth secretly, and at the same time she felt extremely regretful. She was indeed greedy.
After learning that Mu Jinqian was a member of the Mu family and might be Senior Mu's only son, Liu Yuehua's initial thoughts were just as Mu Nanyue said.
If she handed it over to the seniors on both sides, she could avoid a lot of trouble, although she would be scolded a few times.
But the divine egg had been broken after all and could not be restored, so the sect could only try its best to maximize its benefits and ask for more compensation from the Mu family.
But the more Liu Yuehua thought about it, the more she felt unwilling to accept it. She began to think about it. In the secret realm, the dragon that everyone was talking about...
At that time, Liu Yuehua thought that the heart blood of the immortal-level monster was much more valuable than other things.
She never thought that she would make one wrong step at a time...
