Emperor Qiankun

Chapter 188 The grudges of the previous generation should stay away from him

As night fell, everything was silent. Only the moonlight, like water, quietly sprinkled on the eaves of the Li family mansion.

A slender figure in a loose black robe, like an elf of the night, left the Li family mansion quietly.

The black shadow was agile and light-footed. He galloped all the way under the cover of night and soon arrived in front of the Treasure Pavilion.

At this moment, the lights in the Treasure Pavilion were dim and there were few people around.

The black shadow was like a ghost, easily avoiding the guards and going straight to the second floor.

Just as he reached the corner of the corridor, before the shadow could make any move, a lazy voice with a hint of teasing came over: "I knew you would come!"

......

The black shadow stopped, then slowly lifted the hood of his black robe, revealing a cold and beautiful face. It was a woman, Su Yaoyue.

"What are you doing here?"

Su Yaoyue's voice was cold as ice, her eyes revealed a hint of vigilance and displeasure as she stared closely at the person in front of her.

"I was bored, so I came out for a walk. Why not?"

The corners of Yue Qinghuan's mouth curled up slightly, and a barely perceptible glint flashed in her eyes. "By the way, why are you here?"

"It's none of your business."

Su Yaoyue responded bluntly, with a hint of alienation in her tone.

"Haha, if my guess is correct, then Li Qingyuan might be my sister's lover, right?"

Yue Qinghuan suddenly took a few steps forward and looked at Su Yaoyue with a smile, but there was a hint of imperceptible cunning in her eyes.

......

Hearing this, Su Yaoyue's expression suddenly froze, and a hint of astonishment and shame flashed in her beautiful eyes.

But she quickly regained her composure and said coldly:

"Is the Treasure Pavilion's meddling so much now? It's even affecting my Su family!"

Yue Qinghuan smiled softly upon hearing this, and walked lightly to Su Yaoyue's side, saying softly:

"Don't be angry, little sister. I'm just worried that you'll be deceived by those with ulterior motives because you're still young and inexperienced. That's why I'm asking this question purely out of concern for you."

Su Yaoyue snorted coldly, turned her head to the side, and said unhappily:

"Hmph! Don't worry about my affairs."

Then, Su Yaoyue seemed to remember something and said:

"By the way, I heard that among the new generation of Daoists of Xuan Dao Sect, there is my sister's lover. I wonder which young talent has captured my sister's heart?"

......

As soon as these words were spoken, Yue Qinghuan's expression instantly turned somewhat ugly, and her originally lazy and charming smile disappeared, replaced by a frosty look.

Her voice also turned cold:

"Sister, don't talk nonsense. It's just a joke made by the elders after drinking. Don't take it seriously."

Seeing this, Su Yaoyue raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a half-smile, and continued:

"Sister, why are you so nervous? If this isn't happening, why are you so angry? Besides, even if it's just a drunken joke from the elders, there must be some basis for it."

Yue Qinghuan gritted her teeth, stared coldly at Su Yaoyue, and said sternly:

"Sister, please don't talk nonsense! That's completely nonsense! Besides, even if it's true, it's my private matter. You don't need to worry about it!"

Then, Yue Qinghuan changed the subject and said:

"But then again, I'm quite interested in Li Qingyuan. I wonder if you could bear the pain and let him go to me?"

......

"Yue Qinghuan, do you still have any shame?"

Su Yaoyue widened her eyes and stared at the person in front of her with disgust, "Why have you become so disgusting now?"

"Oh my, what's wrong with you, little sister? Why are you suddenly speaking so harshly to me?"

"Thinking back then, we grew up together, even though we weren't close friends who could talk about anything."

"But at least we've spent many wonderful times together. Our relationship isn't perfect, but it's not too bad, right? Why are you saying this now, sister?"

Yue Qinghuan blinked her beautiful eyes, pretending to be innocent, and her gentle voice revealed a hint of confusion and grievance.

......

"Bah~"

Su Yaoyue spat and said:

"Looking at the way you're acting now, you look just like your father. I was blind before, that's why I became your best friend!"

Yue Qinghuan didn't get angry when she heard her words, but just said calmly:

"Sister, you are childish. There are no such things as permanent friends in this world. So-called friends are just people who come together temporarily under certain circumstances."

"Once it comes to issues of mutual interests and positions, it is perfectly normal for them to go their separate ways. I don't think my father has done anything wrong."

"Besides, those are all grudges from previous generations, and have nothing to do with you and me."

"So, sister, please stop worrying about it. Why don't you just follow me into the house and have a cup of tea like we used to?"

......

As she spoke, Yue Qinghuan gently pushed open the nearest door.

As the door slowly opened, a faint scent of tea wafted in the air, refreshing the heart.

Inside the room, an exquisite sandalwood table was placed just right, with wisps of hot steam rising from it. It turned out to be a pot of freshly brewed tea emitting an alluring aroma.

After saying this, Yue Qinghuan walked into the room with light lotus steps.

Then she turned her head and looked at Su Yaoyue with a hint of expectation in her eyes.

However, Su Yaoyue had no intention of going in.

She put the hood of her black robe back on her head, covering her cold face, then turned around and left quickly.

Just as she was leaving, a cold voice came: "You'd better stay away from him!"

Yue Qinghuan looked at her back and chuckled. Then, as if remembering something, her expression suddenly became a little complicated.
