Quick Transmigration: The Charming Beauty Who Was Short-Lived and Alluring

Devastated, Gu Yunzhu left in a daze. The Gu Clan, having lost such a genius, was too busy to continue pursuing Chu Yun and Mo Xing. The two managed to escape and, after leaving the cave, headed west without incident.

Previously, Mo Xinghan had suffered a cold attack, and in order to let him rest properly, they were delayed for a while. As a result, the two of them traveled almost day and night for two days and were finally close to Seoul.

That night, Chu Yun and Mo Xing camped out in the suburbs.

Chu Yun sat by the fire, her eyes lowered, focused on baking the cakes. The firelight flickered on her face.

Mo Xing watched her from the side for what seemed like half an incense stick's time.

Chu Yun handed the warmed-up pancake to Mo Xing, noticing that he was lost in thought, and couldn't help but ask, "What are you thinking about?"

The sound startled Mo Xing awake. He quickly lowered his eyes and said, "I wasn't thinking about anything."

Chu Yun stared at him for a while before saying, "Eat quickly, and rest as soon as you're done. We have to travel tomorrow."

A steaming hot pancake appeared in front of Mo Xing. He didn't look up, but simply reached out and took the pancake.

The pancakes were bought before leaving the city, and they had cooled down long ago due to the freezing weather. Although they were roasted over a fire for a while to warm them up, they were still hard and difficult to bite, and each bite was tough.

Although Mo Xing never cared about food, he still felt uncomfortable after eating such a pancake. He took a small bite and suddenly looked up at Chu Yun.

Girls are usually delicate, and a woman like Chu Yun, with her fair skin and outstanding temperament, doesn't seem like someone who can endure hardship. Yet, she seemed completely unconcerned, swallowing the unpalatable pancake bite by bite without complaining or feeling resentful.

The two originally lived in the city, but Chu Yun insisted on leaving the city in order to save time.

For the sake of Xiaohan Flower, she did not hesitate to suffer hardship and endure wind and rain. Thinking of this, Mo Xing felt a little uncomfortable.

Mo Xing was still in a daze when Chu Yun finished eating the cake. Seeing him like this, she couldn't help but say, "Don't you like it? You'll have to make do with it tonight. We should be able to reach Hancheng by tomorrow. Then you won't have to suffer the hardships of the journey with me. After picking the Xiaohan Flower, I can bring it back myself. You don't have to follow me day and night."

Since that day in the cave, Mo Xing could clearly feel that Chu Yun's attitude towards him had improved a lot. Although he still didn't like to talk, his attitude towards Chu Yun had already softened significantly.

Normally, Mo Xing would be happy to hear Chu Yun say a few words of concern for him, but now, hearing Chu Yun consider his feelings, he felt a lump in his throat.

If I feel wronged, don't you feel wronged too?

The words lingered on his lips for a moment before he finally spoke, "Why are you so desperate to obtain the Xiaohan Flower?"

After Mo Xing finished speaking, his eyes remained fixed on Chu Yun.

Chu Yun was slightly taken aback, not expecting him to ask such a question.

"Why are you suddenly asking this? Don't you always ignore these little things?" Chu Yun asked, puzzled.

Mo Xing paused for a moment, "That was before, now I want to know."

I used to not care about anything, but for some reason, now I really want to hear about you, because I've discovered that things about you no longer seem like trivial matters to me.

"I have a great grudge to avenge and need Young Master Xiao's help, so he cannot be harmed. I must obtain the Xiaohan Flower." Chu Yun said calmly. After speaking, she shifted her gaze to the air, her usually bright eyes becoming veiled in a white mist, making them difficult to see clearly.

The girl's calm tone made Mo Xing's heart tighten, and he couldn't help but say, "I can help you."

Mo Xing knew very well that his words were somewhat impulsive, but he did not regret them, especially when he saw the girl suddenly turn her head to look at him, a flash of light passing through her eyes. He felt even less regretful.

The young monk himself didn't realize how gentle his gaze was towards Chu Yun. The boy, who was usually cold and aloof, had let down his guard, and warmth flowed from the corners of his eyes and brows, clean and comforting.

He stared intently at Chu Yun, hoping she would nod in agreement.

Unfortunately, she shook her head.

Mo Xing couldn't help but frown.

"Only Young Master Xiao can help me get revenge." He heard Chu Yun say this.

"But I don't even know what your grudge is, so how can you be sure I can't help you?" Mo Xing pressed. "Perhaps you can tell me what your grudge is?"

After hearing this, Chu Yun remained silent for a long time before saying, "I'm a little tired after traveling all day. Let's talk about it another time."

After saying that, she picked up the cloak that was on the ground, leaned against a huge piece of wood behind her, and quickly closed her eyes, clearly unwilling to say anything more.

Mo Xing stared at Chu Yun for a long time before finally looking away in embarrassment. He picked up the cold pancake in his hand, swallowed it silently, and his eyes flashed with obvious grievance.

next day

Yesterday ended rather unpleasantly. When Chu Yun woke up and saw Mo Xing for the first time, she looked away awkwardly. Mo Xing spoke to her first, saying, "Let's hurry up. We're still quite a distance from Gu Cheng. If we don't get there before sunset, we'll waste even more time."

After saying this, he jumped on his horse.

Chu Yun also mounted her horse.

"I didn't mean to pry into your life yesterday; I genuinely wanted to help you." Chu Yun had just settled down when Mo Xing's voice came through her ear again.

She glanced to the side and saw that Mo Xing had his eyes downcast, seemingly just saying it casually, but the hand holding the reins was tightening, and his knuckles were turning white.

"It's my problem. I can't face the pain of the past, so I can't speak frankly about it. I'm very grateful for your kind intentions." Chu Yun smiled gently at Mo Xing.

"Like you said, it's not too late to tell me later if there's a chance." Mo Xing also smiled.

“Then I’ll tell you myself after I’ve taken my revenge,” Chu Yun replied.

"It's a word."

"It's a word."

The two rode off on horseback, their figures quickly disappearing into the vast countryside.

As the sun set, the two arrived at Gucheng and headed straight for Fukanglou.

Once the token in his hand was displayed, everything was arranged: food, horses, and attendants were all provided, and they were just waiting to enter the valley the next day.

After dinner, Mo Xing and Chu Yun went back to their rooms to rest. Their rooms were on the second floor, right next to each other.

First, they passed Chu Yun's room, where she said goodbye to Mo Xing: "I've arrived."

A hand had already pushed the door open, but Mo Xing's voice suddenly rang out from behind, "Tomorrow I want to go with you to find the Xiaohan Flower."

Chu Yun immediately turned around and looked at Mo Xing, her delicate eyebrows furrowed, her eyes full of disapproval. "The Hanbei Valley is currently covered in snow and ice. If you go in, your internal cold symptoms will flare up at any time. Just leading us into the valley is already a great risk. If we go deeper into the valley, your body will definitely not be able to withstand it. I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible. After you lead us to the place, come back quickly and do not linger."

Mo Xing retorted, "But you have already given me medicine to suppress the cold symptoms, so I should be fine even if I go deep into the valley."

The medicine Mo Xing mentioned was found by the manager of Fukanglou through Chu Yun. The first thing she did upon arriving at Fukanglou was not to find someone to accompany her into the valley the next day, but to find a doctor to prepare medicine to suppress his cold symptoms.
