Another Path Ahead
Another Path Ahead
Qiao Mu bent down to pick the little fellow up from the ground. She poked its furry head. "What are you doing?"
"Chirp!" The little white squirrel scrunched up its furry face. It looked at the surrounding courtyards with a peculiar expression.
During this period of time, little Chirpy grew another two tails. There were four total now.
In addition to being astonished, Qiao Mu was quite curious as to how many more tails it would grow.
Her dear Chirpy's small black eyes sparkled with agitation. Its small paws clambered up Qiao Mu's body.
"Chirpy, chirp!"
Qiao Mu looked toward where its paw was pointing. She saw that it was a side path that forked off the flowerbed heading somewhere.
"Hm?" Qiaoqiao humored Chirpy and walked two steps closer in that direction.
What was with Chirpy?
"Chirp. Chirp, chirp!!" The little white squirrel kept clutching at Qiao Mu's clothes and chirping nonstop.
Could it be?
This little fellow wanted her to follow this path?
Qiao Mu's eyes lit up at once.
She had no way of seeing her own expression right now.
If the crown prince was to see her expression, he would definitely laugh out loud.
Qiaoqiao's eyes were shining, her expression totally asking "is there treasure there"…
This little white squirrel was an expert at seeking treasure!
Qiaoqiao promptly walked toward that forked path while holding the little white squirrel.
Mhm, mhm. There was an 80 percent chance that it was true.
"Chirpy, if we do find treasure this time, I'll treat you to delicious food." Qiao Mu mumbled to herself as she stepped onto that path with the little white squirrel.
There were weeds growing thickly on both sides of this small path. It looked like very few people walked along here.
Not long after Qiao Mu left, two young men's figures suddenly appeared at that fork in the path. They looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Why is she walking there?"
That was the Mu Clan's forbidden grounds. The family head had passed down the order many years ago that no one was to go to that court.
"Ha, who cares if she goes there to die or not." The other young man snickered sinisterly. "She came back with such d*mn fanfare and made everyone in our Mu Clan to welcome her with three kneels and nine kowtows. This woman has long become our entire Mu Clan's common enemy."
It was another story if she had the strength. It was justifiable for their entire Mu Clan to kowtow to the powerful, but right now, which person in the Mu Clan didn't know that the young crown prince consort was trash who got brought back from the Lower Star Domain?
It wasn't that easy struggling in such a place as the Lower Star Domain to become a level-three spiritual cultivator, but her footsteps would only halt here!
"Then should we still follow her and make a move?"
"Are you stupid? Why should we follow her there? Don't forget what's in that old courtyard."
"Ha ha, oh right." That young man said with a chortle, "Xiao Tang, let's go then."
The sinister-looking young man nodded and smirked mockingly, "We'll go back and report to Young Master Erde."
Hopefully after hearing this news, the young master would be happy and bestow them with pills like spiritual-energy-gathering pills…
The other young man's eyes also lit up. He nodded repeatedly and said, "This news would definitely delight Young Master Erde."
Ever since that little b*tch poisoned Young Master Erde mute, the latter was always on a short fuse.
All the disciples in the second branch of the clan trembled with fear and trepidation. They were afraid that a wrong mive would provoke Young Master Erde.
