Mu Xue and Mu Xue

"Oh? Really? Did I really? I think I'm usually quite amiable, right?" A crisp and doubtful voice suddenly rang out in the air, and then a nimble figure slowly emerged from their house like a light butterfly.

Wasn't this person the Ziyuan who had just flown away like a shooting star? Her graceful figure, illuminated by the sunlight, exuded a unique charm.

"Oh, I originally wanted to try the puppet talisman that my senior brother gave me, but I didn't expect to meet you saying bad things." Ziyuan had a smiling face, and that bright smile was like the most beautiful flower in spring. She raised her chin slightly, with a hint of playfulness in her eyes, and looked straight at Lin Mo and said.

"Uh... hehe, Master, you have to believe me, I'm not saying bad things about you! I'm just... I'm just praising you, yes, I'm praising you! I'm saying that you are imposing and have an invisible sense of oppression, I'm praising you for being so powerful!" Lin Mo hurriedly explained with a smile on his face while gently patting Ziyuan's shoulders.

His eyes were full of flattery, and his hands moved with extreme caution, as if he was afraid of upsetting his master.

"Oh? Really?" Ziyuan narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Lin Mo. There was a glimmer of doubt in her beautiful eyes, as if she didn't believe what Lin Mo said.

"Really, really, of course it's true. How could I lie to your young and beautiful master? You are right, right, Xue'er?" Lin Mo said, looking at Mu Xue eagerly, as if seeking support.

"Right, right, right." Mu Xue rolled her eyes helplessly and nodded gently. Her expression showed both helplessness towards Lin Mo and a hint of amusement at this farce.

Ziyuan smiled slightly, and that smile was like a spring breeze, making people feel extremely warm. She said, "You are so sweet, little brat. I won't do it again. If I hear you say something bad about me next time, I will definitely beat you up."

As Ziyuan spoke, she shook her fists that were as white as jade. The fists looked small, but seemed to contain infinite power.

"Yes, yes, I will not let Master hear it." Lin Mo said this with great confidence while pounding Ziyuan's shoulders even harder. But after he finished speaking, he realized that he had said the wrong thing.

"So, you often say bad things about me where I can't hear you?" Ziyuan's smiling face changed after hearing Lin Mo's words.

Her delicate face instantly became serious, and her eyes revealed a hint of danger. She pulled out her fist and slowly turned to look at Lin Mo, as if waiting for him to give her a satisfactory explanation. Her fist was clenched tightly, as if it could fall on Lin Mo at any time.

"Ah...ah, I'm sorry, I was wrong, I was wrong, I really didn't say anything bad about you!" When Lin Mo saw Ziyuan turning around, the serious expression and clenched fists made him feel panic in his heart.

He suddenly felt as if he was about to face a storm and was about to be beaten, so he ran away without hesitation, his figure like a panicked deer, quickly shuttling back and forth in the yard.

Seeing that he wanted to run away, Ziyuan refused to give up. A hint of stubbornness flashed in her eyes, and she immediately started running after him.

At this moment, they didn't use any tricks, just like children chasing each other in the yard, playing and fighting wantonly. Their figures danced in the sunlight, full of energy and vitality.

Seeing the two of them like this, Mu Xue really wanted to cry and laugh at the same time. One of them was in his teens, full of youth and energy; the other was at least twenty years old, and should have been mature and steady, but at this moment he was as childish as a child.

Chasing and fighting here, wouldn't it damage our image if others saw us? Mu Xue shook her head helplessly, but a strange warmth filled her heart.

The physical fitness of the Life Realm is several times stronger than that of the Soul Realm. Naturally, Lin Mo was no match for Zi Yuan at his normal running speed. Soon, Lin Mo was caught by Zi Yuan.

The fate of Lin Mo who was caught can be imagined. He was held in the air by Ziyuan's hand, like a naughty little kid who was caught.

"If you really didn't say anything bad about me, why did you run away? I originally believed you, but now that you ran away, I suspect you have something to hide. Tell me quickly, did you say anything bad about me behind my back?" Zi Yuan said to Lin Mo who was held in her hand. There was a hint of anger and a bit of teasing in her voice.

She kept poking his head with her slender fingers, as if punishing a disobedient child.

"Oh, Master, you have to believe me! I really didn't say anything bad about you. I just ran away when I saw you were going to hit me! If I didn't run, I would get beaten!" Lin Mo said pitifully, his eyes full of grievance and pleading.

His young face was full of innocence, which made people feel pity for him.

"Oh? If you say so, you won't get beaten if you run?" Ziyuan was playing with him like a little pet, pinching his face, feeling the soft skin; then touching his head, as if comforting a frightened little animal.

"Really, really, Master, please be magnanimous and let me go! I won't say the wrong thing again!" Lin Mo begged Ziyuan for mercy again. His voice was full of eagerness and sincerity. He hoped that Master could forgive his momentary slip of the tongue.

"Okay, I'll trust you just once more." Ziyuan raised her chin slightly, a look of tolerance in her eyes. She gently put down Lin Mo, looked at the two disciples in front of her with expectant faces, and continued with a smile, "Besides visiting your home today, I have something else to do. That's a good thing for you. Can you guess what it is?" Ziyuan's lively eyes gleamed with mystery, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, keeping the secret.

"What is it? Is it a cub of some cute species? Or something?" Mu Xue's eyes lit up instantly. She asked curiously with an expectant expression on her face.

That expression was like a child expecting a mysterious gift, full of longing and desire. Her eyes were fixed on Ziyuan, hoping to find a clue from her master's face.
