When Mu Jin heard Ling Yu say that Su Yi was looking for her, she had just finished breakfast and was standing on the top of the mountain, staring in a daze towards the direction of Black Bear Mountain.

That night, Su Yuntian held a sharp arrow in his hand, with the arrow head pointing straight at her and said: As long as she stays and becomes his Princess Yun again, he will let the Mu family go!

Those words, like a spell, kept echoing in her ears and lingered.

Mu Jin's thoughts were disturbed by the footsteps behind her. She turned around and saw Ling Yu walking towards her.

"Miss Mu, the master is looking for you."

Mu Jin asked: "What's the matter?"

Ling Yu thought of what Su Yi had just said about leaving immediately, and couldn't help but frown slightly as she spoke to Mu Jin.

"Su Yuntian's men have been searching for us at the foot of the mountain these days, and they will soon be searching here."

"The day before yesterday, we found a secret channel leading to the Huai River behind the mountain. The master's Moon Shadow Guard has prepared a boat and is waiting by the Huai River."

"The master said he wanted to leave immediately."

When Mu Jin heard that Su Yi was about to leave, he couldn't help but frowned when he thought of his injury.

Su Yi lay on the bed with a frown on his face, waiting for Mu Jin. Just when he was getting impatient and wanted to call Ling Feng to go out and take a look.

With a creak, he turned his head and saw Mu Jin pushing the door open.

Seeing Mu Jin approaching him, Su Yi complained in a coquettish manner, "Where have you been? It took you so long to get here."

"Are you looking for me?"

Mu Jin did not answer Su Yi's words.

Su Yi stretched out his hand towards Mu Jin with difficulty, motioning Mu Jin to come closer to him.

Mu Jin looked at Su Yi, smiled slightly, and walked closer to him.

Su Yi grabbed Mu Jin's hand and asked her to sit on the bed next to him.

"We will leave here and go to Southern Shu Kingdom. I will take you to meet my grandfather, okay?"

Mu Jin paused for a moment and said, "Your injury is not suitable for moving at this time. It's best to rest for two days before leaving."

"Ling Yu said that it would take at least two days for Su Yuntian's men to search the mountain. You don't need to be so anxious."

Su Yi said, "I don't think this injury is as serious as the pain I felt yesterday. Cover the wound with oil paper and tie it up tightly. The water from the canal won't get into the wound, and it will be fine."

"And this kind of pain, this king can still bear it."

Mu Jin smiled and pulled her hand out of Su Yi's palm. She stood up, walked to the window and looked out.

"I'm sorry, I can't go to Southern Shu with you."

When Su Yi heard Mu Jin say this, his heart skipped a beat. He thought he had heard it wrong.

"Ajin, what did you just say? I didn't hear you clearly. I'm telling you, after you and I go to Southern Shu..."

Mu Jin interrupted, "I'm telling you! I won't go to Southern Shu with you. I'll go down the mountain in a moment. After I go down the mountain, you don't have to wade through the canal and walk through the back mountain."

"Ajin, is it because I didn't help you rescue your father and brother that you didn't go to Southern Shu with me? I promise you that even if your father and brother return to the capital, I can protect them from death."

"No, I know you have done your best for our Mu family."

Su Yi slowly clenched his hand into a fist and said, "Then tell me, why don't you go to Southern Shu with me?"

Mu Jin lowered his eyes, his voice dry: "I've thought about it, the fastest way to save my father and brother, and the Mu family army, is for me to go with Su Yuntian."

Mu Jin turned around, pulled the corners of his mouth hard, and said with a smile: "When Su Yuntian and I leave, his soldiers at the foot of the mountain will withdraw. Then, you don't need to go through the canal anymore, and you can leave the mountain openly."

Su Yi smiled and said, "Ajin, don't joke with me like this. It's not funny at all."

Mu Jin looked at Su Yi: "Su Yuntian only wants me. He promised me that as long as I go with him, he will release my father and brother."

"He also promised me that if I became Princess Yun again, he would never have another woman in his life and would only be devoted to me."

"I don't know when he started to be so crazy about me, but as long as it can save my father and brother, it's not a bad thing."

"Besides." Mu Jin raised her chin slightly: "Men are not that important to me. They are just people who share a bed with me, sleep together, eat together, so what difference does it make who I marry?"

Su Yi pursed his thin lips, and the slight smile that existed in his eyes suddenly disappeared slowly.

He endured the severe pain, supported his body with his arms and sat up. As soon as his feet touched the ground, the wound on his back was torn due to his movement, and blood flowed down his spine.

Su Yi felt that the pain from the wound on his back was less than one-tenth of the pain in his heart.

He stood up slowly and walked towards Mu Jin step by step with difficulty.

He grabbed Mu Jin's arm, pushed her against the wall, held her hands, and looked at her coldly.

Mu Jin's arm was painfully grabbed by Su Yi. The two looked at each other, and in the end, Mu Jin's anger rose and he angrily said, "Let me go!"

Mu Jin didn't expect that Su Yi was so seriously injured, but he could still hold his body and clamp her.

She could even smell a faint smell of blood, and she knew that it was the wound on Su Yi's back that had split open.

Mu Jin was a little angry and anxious, and said, "You are crazy! I tried so hard to stop the wound for you, but you broke it open again."

Mu Jin knew why Su Yi was angry. She wanted to struggle, but as she looked at Su Yi, who was sweating profusely due to the pain, she did not dare to struggle hard.

The usual playful smile that he showed to Mu Jin no longer appeared in Su Yi's eyes. Instead, he was filled with anger as he spoke word by word.

"Mu Jin, am I crazy, or are you crazy? Do you know what you just said? Is this all you can do?"

Mu Jin frowned and looked at Su Yi.

However, Su Yi looked down at Mu Jin from a high position. He was as dangerous as a hunter looking down at his prey. Mu Jin didn't like this feeling very much.

Mu Jin felt a little guilty and annoyed and asked, "What on earth do you want to do?"

Su Yi tried his best to suppress his anger, for he was afraid that he would lose control and hurt Mu Jin.

But he still couldn't help but grit his teeth and said, "It was Su Yuntian at first, then it was Nangong Min, and now it's back to Su Yuntian, Mu Jin! I know women are fickle, but I didn't know you could be so loyal?"

Mu Jin said nothing. However, the strength in Su Yi's hand increased instantly.

"A man is not that important to you. He is just someone you share a bed with, sleep with, eat with. It doesn't matter who you marry?"

"Then why have you never looked at me straight in the eye from the beginning to now? Why can't it be me?"

Committing herself to Su Yuntian to do business was not a glorious thing in the first place, and now that Su Yi had spoken about her so openly, she not only felt ashamed, but also suddenly felt a little angry in her heart.

It was as if someone had seen some secrets that he didn't want to make public, or as if his most embarrassing side had been known to others, causing him to feel angry because of shame.

Mu Jin sneered: "I can be with any man I want. I've said before that I don't like you. Even if you block an arrow for me, I won't fall in love with you."

"Who are you to me? Who I marry or who I don't marry has nothing to do with you."

These words were a bit too vicious, and Su Yi's face turned even darker.
