Chapter 286 - 285: Yue Wugou
Yue Wugou’s life was quite tragic. She once shared a perfect love story with Yue Wuya, but her fate took a cruel turn when she was attacked by Qianye Ying’er’s subordinates. She lost her memories, fell in love with another man, and lived a happy life with him, even giving birth to his child. But in the end, her memories returned, and everything changed once again.
She had been living peacefully with her husband when she suddenly remembered that she had once loved another man. It was like someone recovering memories from a past life, memories and feelings she didn’t know were hers. In the end, she became a single woman who truly loved two men.
Yue Wugou usually stayed in a pocket world hidden within the most sacred area of the Moon Divine City. A barrier personally erected by the Moon God Emperor sealed the place, and only those with his direct bloodline could enter. He strictly forbade anyone from approaching.
When Yun Wuji saw her, she was sitting on the edge of the bed, wearing simple white robes. Her face looked like it had been etched with the vicissitudes of life, but it was still beautiful enough to bring ruin to a country. It was just that her jade-like features were far too pale, so pale they looked like white wax about to burn up.
At first glance, Yun Wuji noticed that she resembled Xia Qingyue very much. It was just that, maybe because of her frail health, her figure was a little less ’impressive’ than her daughter’s.
"Wuya...Cough...Cough...Cough," Yue Wugou called out softly when she saw Yue Wuya, but just as she spoke, it brought on a painful bout of coughing, causing her face to go even paler.
"Senior!"
A white light congealed in Yue Wuya’s hand, and he was about to swiftly move to help her when Yun Wuji stepped forward. Light Profound Energy shone in his palm as he pressed it against Yue Wugou’s hand. Seeing this, Yue Wuya stopped his action and watched silently.
Soon, under the effect of the profound light energy, Yue Wugou’s coughing stopped, and her breathing returned to normal. Her pale complexion improved. She took her palm from his and, without speaking, gave Yue Wuya a look, to which Yue Wuya spoke, "This young man is Fei Yang. He is the disciple of Luo Guxie and also Qingyue’s husband."
"What!?" Yue Wugou was at first uncomfortable with a man other than Yue Wuya or Xia Hongyi touching her, but upon hearing Yue Wuya’s explanation, the woman’s weary, pale face showed some emotion. Her sorrowful eyes lit up, and she took the initiative to hold his hand. "You are Qingyue’s husband?"
"Yes, senior," Yun Wuji replied with a polite smile. Facing his mother-in-law, he acted very respectfully and modestly. Her eyes hung slightly low with a faint smile. Seeing him behave like this, Luo Guxie blinked, as if she couldn’t believe what she was seeing.
