Harem Daily Life

The expected screams did not appear.

He Jinan was stunned. Could he be killed by a single palm strike?

He quickly turned back to save him. He couldn't let his uncle hurt his future brother-in-law. But he saw that Mo Xingzhou had actually dodged Wang Xingchuan's attack and took three of his moves.

Wang Xingchuan was also slightly startled. He hadn't expected the seemingly weak Mo Xingzhou to have such swift reflexes. His eyes flashed, and his attack suddenly intensified, his moves coming at Mo Xingzhou like a torrential downpour.

Mo Xingzhou's heart ached! All his unfulfilled wishes flashed through his mind. He moved nimbly, dodging Wang Xingchuan's sharp attacks with a flick of his left and a right. He had no counterattacks, but his defense was excellent.

Wang Xingchuan could see that the young man before him was like a loach, difficult to catch. To make a quick decision, he dodged to the side, feinted, and then grabbed Mo Xingzhou's wrist with his backhand, swung it hard. Mo Xingzhou flipped in the air and landed with a thud.

He Jinan was stunned watching from the side, and he felt a little more admiration for Mo Xingzhou in his heart - there was really no one at their age who could retreat a few moves at the hands of the Demon Lord.

He walked over, helped Mo Xingzhou up from the ground, and patted him on the shoulder: "It's not shameful to lose to my uncle."

Mo Xingzhou looked at Wang Xingchuan, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Demon Lord, for showing mercy." If he attacked him a few more times, he estimated that his father would have to die.

Wang Xingchuan praised him, "Your reaction is very quick. If you practice diligently, you will be able to reach 20% of my level in the future."

Mo Xingzhou blinked, feeling the excitement of being praised by his idol. He rubbed his hands nervously and said, "Um... I wonder if the Demon Lord could give me some more guidance? I think I've learned a lot from exchanging a few moves with him."

He Jinan raised his eyebrows, thinking that this kid really knows how to climb up the ladder. Is he trying to steal my skills?

Wang Xingchuan smiled and said, "I have some important things to do, so I can only stay for three days at most."

Mo Xingzhou was overjoyed: "Thank you, Demon Lord. Three days is enough. I will study hard!"

Asking someone to teach you was exciting, but a day of practice was exhausting. Even He Jinan, the sparring partner, was exhausted, let alone Mo Xingzhou, the main trainer.

He was beaten by the Demon Lord and learned a lot from the constant fighting, but he was really beaten and suffered a lot of injuries.

When He Jinan's carriage left the military camp, he sat down on the ground and was unable to stand up again. It was only when a passing soldier took pity on him that he helped him up and sent him back to the camp.

For three days in a row, Wang Xingchuan appeared at the barracks as promised, teaching Mo Xingzhou martial arts. He Jinan learned his lesson over the next two days, and no matter how much Mo Xingzhou tried to provoke him, he refused to join the fight, simply observing from the sidelines.

Mo Xingzhou, who was once again taught by Wang Xingchuan himself, finally finished the sparring with gritted teeth. His clothes were soaked with sweat, his body was covered with bruises, and all his strength was drained.

"Alright, you fought very well these past three days. It's been a while since I taught martial arts to a junior so seriously. You should practice more. The next time we meet, I will test your learning results."

Mo Xingzhou dragged his exhausted body and clasped his fists in thanks: "Thank you, Demon Lord, for your kindness in revitalizing my martial arts training!"

If what He Jinan taught him before was to sort out the rules of martial arts learning for more than ten years, then what the Demon Lord taught him in the past three days was to drag him to a new level.

He found that a master is a master, and every move he made was as smooth as flowing water and superb.

As for Wang Xingchuan, after the large ship carrying seafood arrived at the port of Beijing, he personally delivered a batch of seafood to the palace and then rushed to Suicheng without stopping.

Doctor Liu has been out looking for medicine for his adoptive father for over a month and has not returned yet. This is really worrying, so Wang Xingchuan has to go find him himself.

Mu Yu knew that Wang Xingchuan was filial and would be worried if he didn't go there in person, so he didn't try to persuade him. However, on the seventh day after Wang Xingchuan left Beijing, Mu Yu started to feel unwell.

Even after taking his usual medication, Mu Yu still felt a dull pain in his chest. Sweat poured down his forehead, and he even spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Island Master, how about... tell the Queen first! Your subordinates are very worried about you!" The attendant who served him asked, feeling uneasy. If the Island Master could not pass this hurdle and did not see the Queen for the last time in time, how regrettable it would be!

Mu Yu closed his eyes, his whole body was exhausted, and his face was pale.

"Please keep my will safe. If I don't make it this time, give it to the Queen and all my assets to her. Tell her not to be sad, as birth, aging, sickness, and death are part of human nature."

After he finished saying these words with difficulty, he closed his eyes and lay down without saying anything more.

"Then...should we go and ask the Queen?" The servant was at a loss and extremely anxious.

Mu Yu closed his eyes and said, "No. Don't let them see the tragic scene of my death." Mu Yu replied stubbornly.

The servant's heart skipped a beat, because the "they" the island owner mentioned also included the Queen Mother.

He didn't dare to act on his own and was sweating profusely from anxiety.

Several hall masters from Penglai Island hurried over and gathered together to discuss a solution.

"In my opinion, the island owner is in great danger this time. We should be prepared."

"How about taking the token into the palace and asking the Queen to come? Otherwise, if we really don't get to see her, we will be guilty of a great sin!"

After a discussion, several people agreed that they should go to the palace to report.

The palace gates were locked in the middle of the night and could not be opened unless something serious happened. However, Mu Yu's token was special, so the guard only took a glance at it and hurried off to report.

Not only Tao Yanyan, but He Linzhang also followed him out of the palace.

Looking at Mu Yu's pale face, Tao Yanyan felt indescribable pain in his heart.

"You've been sick for so long, why didn't you tell me?" Tao Yanyan's eyes were slightly red. She didn't expect Mu Yu to be so sick.

"It's an old problem. I don't want to make you worry." Mu Yu wiped off the sweat on his body, and it broke out again. His heartbeat was very fast and irregular.

Tao Yanyan was very anxious and kept helping him to calm down. He also asked the imperial physician to prescribe some medicine and fed it to him personally.

"Where is my brother? When will he come back?" On the way here, the servant had already told Tao Yanyan about the young island master going to see Imperial Physician Liu. Only then did Tao Yanyan know that the reason Imperial Physician Liu left the capital was actually to look for medicine for Mu Yu.

"There has been no news from the young island master. I'm afraid..." The attendant said nothing more. They couldn't contact Wang Xingchuan now.

"Yan Yan, if I leave, don't be sad. I haven't raised you for a single day. It's not worth your sadness." Mu Yu struggled to speak. He only had this one blood relative in his life. Although they didn't spend much time together, blood is thicker than water and love is deep.

Tao Yanyan fought back tears. "Don't say anything. Just wait patiently. I believe my brother will come back as soon as possible. And..." She leaned closer and whispered in Mu Yu's ear, "If you can turn this crisis around, I will find a way to send you and the Queen Mother away. You can find a beautiful place to live out your days like a fairy for a few years."

Mu Yu seemed to be moved by her words, and his eyes sparkled for a moment.

He Linzhang was close by and his martial arts skills were not bad either. Although Tao Yanyan's voice was low, he still heard it.

He pursed his lips and frowned deeply, but seeing that Mu Yu seemed to be trying hard to live again, he finally sighed slightly and decided to pretend that he heard nothing.
