The Seven Princesses' Journey Across Time

Chapter 140 Young Man on White Horse Drunk in Spring Breeze 53

At this time, on the table that was originally filled with cups, plates, and bowls, there was only a pot of wine and a lonely wine glass placed in front of Mo Luyi.

Just at this moment, Zhuo Yuean's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

Zhuo Yuean and the others walked through the winding paths and finally arrived in front of a quiet and secluded courtyard. The courtyard was surrounded by green trees and colorful flowers, which seemed particularly quiet and pleasant.

Zhuo Yuean stopped, pointed at the gate that was not completely closed, and said softly, "This is it." There was a hint of anticipation and mystery in his tone.

Bai Hehuai, standing nearby, could no longer contain his eagerness. Without a word, he strode into the courtyard. Mo Lvyi, standing behind him, heard the noise and looked in the direction of the sound. Bai Hehuai was the first to enter, followed closely by Zhuo Yuean and Ye Dingzhi. The three of them, the woman beautiful and the man imposing, walked steadily and quickly around the tall screen wall at the entrance.

When their eyes fell on the pavilion in the center of the courtyard, they found Mo Luyi sitting there leisurely, drinking and having fun. She was wearing a light green dress, the hem of which fluttered gently in the wind, making her look as pure and elegant as a fairy descending to earth.

Upon seeing Mo Luyi, the three of them hurried forward, bowed respectfully, and said, "Disciple greets Master." Ye Dingzhi bowed his head slightly and politely said, "Dingzhi greets Junior Uncle." Finally, Bai Hehuai also said with a smile, "Hehuai greets Aunt Luyi."

Seeing this, Mo Luyi smiled slightly, raised her hand and waved it gently, and said softly: "No need to be so polite, just sit down." After that, she stretched out her hand and pointed to the stools next to her.

Seeing that Mo Lvyi was still so amiable, Zhuo Yuean and Bai Hehuai no longer hesitated. After smiling at each other, they sat down on Mo Lvyi's left and right. Seeing this, Ye Dingzhi had no choice but to sit opposite Mo Lvyi.

Mo Luyi gracefully lifted the wine jug, her movements skillful and light as she filled the three glasses one by one with fine wine. A bright smile then appeared on her face as she softly inquired, "One of you three should be preparing for the final exam, and the other two should be in Xueyue City. Why did you suddenly come looking for me?"

Bai Hehuai, who was sitting nearby, heard this and quickly spoke up, "Aunt Luyi, we actually came to Tianqi City specifically to look for Big Brother Ye. But yesterday, Big Brother Ye mentioned that he had met you, so Yue An guessed that you might be here. It's been a while since we last saw you, and we've been missing you so much! So, we all decided to come and visit you together."

At this time, Zhuo Yue'an also hurriedly echoed: "That's right, Master! You just handed Xueyue City over to your disciples to manage, and then disappeared without a trace. Although you have superb martial arts and unparalleled skills, the world of martial arts is dangerous after all. How can I not worry about your safety?" As he spoke, he shook his head slightly, with concern on his face.

After hearing this, Mo Luyi waved her hand nonchalantly and comforted everyone, "Oh, there's no need to worry so much! As long as you can develop and expand Xueyue City, that will be much better than anything else! But tell me, why are you so anxious to find Dingzhi this time? You can even temporarily leave Xueyue City alone?" As she spoke, she turned her head to look at Ye Dingzhi, a hint of curiosity and doubt in her beautiful eyes.

Ye Dingzhi coughed palely, the sound coming from deep within his chest, a hint of repression and helplessness. However, faced with the situation before him, he opened his mouth but found himself at a loss for words. Every word felt like a fishbone stuck in his throat, causing him immense discomfort.

Bai Hehuai, standing by, was filled with anxiety upon seeing Ye Dingzhi like this. Her beautiful eyes fixed on him, as if trying to convey strength and courage to him through her gaze. Several times, she almost wanted to blurt out what she wanted to say on Ye Dingzhi's behalf, but she ultimately suppressed the urge. She knew that this matter was of great significance to Ye Dingzhi, and she had to respect his choice and leave the decision to him.

Ye Dingzhi remained silent for a long time. Finally, as if making up his mind, he took a deep breath and slowly pulled out a crumpled letter from his pocket. This letter had been brought to him by Zhuo Yuean, written by his master, Mo Yi. Ye Dingzhi held the letter carefully, his fingers trembling slightly, as if the letter carried a heavy burden. Then, he gritted his teeth and handed the letter directly to Mo Lvyi.

Mo Luyi slowly reached out her hand and gently took the thin letter. She slowly unfolded it, and when her eyes fell on the words on the letter, her originally calm face was instantly shrouded in a solemn expression.

Her eyes scanned the letter rapidly, and every word weighed heavily on her heart. As she read deeper, her willow-like eyebrows furrowed tightly, forming a deep furrow.

"This...?" Finally, Mo Luyi could no longer suppress her shock and confusion. She suddenly raised her head and looked directly at Ye Dingzhi who was standing beside her. At this moment, her eyes were filled with a complex expression of surprise and worry.

Ye Dingzhi, on the other hand, kept his head down and remained silent. He looked somewhat dejected, as if he was carrying a heavy burden, and his entire mood was extremely heavy.

However, at this moment, an image suddenly flashed through Mo Luyi's mind - it was the look Ye Dingzhi had given Baili Dongjun during the academy exam. That look contained an indescribable emotion, and no one noticed it at the time, not even Ye Dingzhi himself, but Mo Luyi felt that look...

Thinking of this, Mo Luyi couldn't help but think to herself: Perhaps this outcome wasn't entirely bad, and in fact, it might even be considered a good situation to some extent. However, Ye Dingzhi didn't seem to realize this yet.

So, she turned around and looked around. First, she saw Bai Hehuai, whose face was filled with righteous indignation and was about to speak. Then she saw Zhuo Yuean, whose eyes were filled with deep worry. Finally, her gaze fell back on Ye Dingzhi, who was still silent and looking down in thought.

After taking a deep breath, Mo Luyi adjusted her expression and said in a relaxed tone, "Don't think too much now. Come see me after your academy exams are over. Maybe then you'll find the answers you're looking for."
