Chapter 566 - 568 The Return of the Ghost King (Part One)
Gazing at the woman’s faint smile, Dongfang Jun’s face turned iron blue. Clenching his fists, which crackled ominously, he took a deep breath, and a startling chill flashed through his eyes.
"It seems you truly do not wish to break the contract with Xiao Yue," he said, his gaze cold and terrifying as he looked at the woman before him, "since that’s the case, you will one day regret this decision!"
With those words, he no longer spared Mu Ruyue another glance, fiercely flicking his sleeves as he turned and left.
"The Dongfang Family..." Mu Ruyue lifted the corners of her mouth in a smile, "I’d like to see who will end up regretting in the end. Not to mention being a concubine, even the position of Family Head’s wife isn’t worthy of Xiao Yue. He deserves a better man to love."
If it had been right after her arrival in this otherworldly place, Mu Ruyue might have impulsively left Dongfang Jun dead right there. However, the experiences over the years had already drained her of that youthful fervor.
If she were to act against the Dongfang Family, she would certainly uproot them entirely, forever preventing future trouble. Killing Dongfang Jun now would bring her no benefits!
To exterminate them, she would eradicate them root and branch, not allowing them any chance to bite back.
Otherwise, she would endure!
"I wonder when the medicinal herbs from the Ouyang Family will arrive," Mu Ruyue said with a light smile, "If the people from the Ouyang Family were transporting the herbs, it would take very little time. But Ouyang Yunjin can’t make any big moves without other families noticing, which is why he had Yi Shaochen send men to do this task. With the pace of ordinary people, it naturally would be much slower."
But by now, they should have arrived...
"Halt, what are you doing?"
Outside the city gate, the commanding officer blocked the rapidly approaching team, sweeping his cold gaze over the caravan as he said sternly, "Inspection!"
"Yes, General!"
