Chapter 18
Thirteen Dragons (1)
Bai Shuiyaos mouth hurt very much; her beautiful peach blossom eyes stared wide, and her face was full of disbelief.
Mmph!
Was this still the silly sister who always obeyed her every word meekly? How dare she stuff dirty seeds into her mouth!!
Mu Wanwan didnt bother to look at her. She lifted her eyes to the astonished Fuliu and lied blatantly with a straight face, Lord Ao Qin met with me yesterday and gave me a promise token. If I die, Lord Ao Qin will certainly know immediately.
Also Mu Wanwan smiled at Fuyu, What if I said that my mother left me a Rank 2 fire originium?
A Rank 2 fire originium! A little maid shrieked and automatically took two steps back.
A Rank 2 fire originium was a type of crystallization of fire. When subjected to a violent impact or affected by spiritual power, it would produce a massive explosion. Anyone under Rank 2 who touched it would die, and those in Rank 3 would be seriously injured. The market price of one was the cost of a high-grade spirit stone.
Fuliu was also shocked, and gave Mu Wanwan a strange look. Right now, she was a little impressed by this chongxi bride who would only weep and sob before. Actually, she was aware that this person might be just lying, and didnt really have a fire originium, but there was no need for her to risk it for Bai Shuiyaos possibly non-existent treasure.
Madam, dont listen to Bai Shuiyaos nonsense, weve never had the intention of switching your places, Fuliu took the lead to yield. There was not the slightest hint of compassion as she met the sobbing and shaking Bai Shuiyaos pure face. She took out a green cord from her sleeve and beckoned to the maids behind her who then gathered around and tied Bai Shuiyao up.
Wait. As they were pulling the continually struggling Bai Shuiyao, about to leave, Mu Wanwan went up to them calmly, then tugged at the packet of seeds that filled half of Bai Shuiyaos mouth because the force used was a little too strong. As it was stuffed in rather forcefully, she only managed to pull half of it out.
The little maid who had spoken up for Qing Ye earlier watched Bai Shuiyao cry from the pain. Her face was red with agitation, Bah! Serves you right!
Mu Wanwan yanked the seeds out; Bai Shui Yao immediately started shrieking, Mu Wanwan, you black-hearted b*tch, I wont let you off!
What are you screaming about! That little maid was also an expert at reading faces; seeing that Fuliu had no intentions of helping Bai Shuiyao, she gave Bai Shuiyao a fierce slap. What right do you have to speak impertinently to Madam!
Her slap was without mercy the crisp Pak that sounded out made even Mu Wanwan feel the pain.
Bai Shuiyao was dumbstruck by the slap. The corner of her mouth bled as tears fell from her eyes, making quite the pitiable sight.
Fuliu gave Mu Wanwan a slight bow, then led the group off. Eyes bright, that little maid curtsied to Mu Wanwan, then, jabbing at Bai Shuiyaos spine, left.
Only when they had all left did Mu Wanwan let out a slow sigh of relief. She put the half-destroyed packet of seeds aside, walked slowly to the courtyards entrance, and locked the heavy main door tight.
She looked at the lifelike golden dragon carved on the door and smacked the dragons head in frustration.
This time, it looked as if matters had been solved very easily, when in fact there had been a large crisis hidden under the surface.
If Bai Shuiyao hadnt been so anxious and left so many loopholes, if she had become a little more mature, and planned carefully, Mu Wanwan might really have been replaced. What Rank 2 fire originum, she didnt have that kind of thing at all. The original bodys mother was also a cowardly person whose own power was only at Rank 2, and was always bowing and scraping to her father. Otherwise, how could Bai Shuiyao, an illegitimate daughter, climb on top of both the heads of this mother-daughter pair?
The original bodys mother didnt even have a single gold coin in her private savings, nor did she leave anything for the original body, let alone something like a Rank 2 fire originium.
