Muyan took the left half of the Qingying Fruit and finished it all then she threw the core away without a care. “Okay, silly disciple. Let’s go—let’s not waste time here.”
Luo Beiyu nodded in a daze and couldn’t help but glance at the fruit core.
The others did the exact same thing.
A precious Qingying Fruit, also a seventh-class rare Mystic fruit, was just eaten and thrown away like that.
Luo Beiyu was belatedly trying to catch up to this Master who seemed very, very different from him.
“Damn, we watched the Qingying Fruit for three days! I’ll kill you!” One of Guo Zifei’s maidservants roared and finally couldn’t help but rush over while brandishing her sword, and the other maidservants also followed her closely.
Upon seeing the approach of the sword shining with a cold blue light, Luo Beiyu stepped forward and blocked Muyan without a second thought.
His gold silk glove-covered hand reached out and grabbed the sword in one try.
With Mystic aura surging, his strength as an Earth-Level Warrior was revealed.
“Kala—” The sword was broken.
Luo Beiyu pushed his palm forward again, and several maidservants were pushed far back by the gush of wind brought by his palm.
Two of them even fell to the ground while screaming.
Guo Zifei stared at Luo Beiyu in disbelief then she looked at Muyan maliciously.
She never expected that Luo Beiyu would fight against her people on Muyan’s behalf.
She was only in the middle stage of the Mystic Level and was no match for Luo Beiyu.
But was she really going to let go of the woman who had stolen her Qingying Fruit?
In the midst of the confrontation, they suddenly heard the rapid pounding of horses’ hooves from afar.
Everyone turned to look in the direction where the sound was coming from.
Soon they saw horses coming in from outside Forest Mist, and in the thick fog, the horses didn’t show any signs of slowing down or panic.
Apparently they weren’t ordinary horses.
As soon as Guo Zifei saw the incoming people clearly, she revealed a delighted expression on her face and shouted, “Your Highness!”
“Yu—” The horses stopped before the crowd.
A handsome man in bright yellow jumped off his horse.
Guo Zifei immediately rushed over and cozied up in his arms like a petite bird, then she protested coquettishly, “Your Highness, why did you come so late? I’ve been waiting for you in this fog for a few days!”
“Haha, it’s my fault, Feifei!” The man stroked Guo Zifei’s face lightly then he said with a faint smile, “How about I let you get first pick when I find rare Mystic medicine in Forest Mist later?”
Speaking of rare Mystic medicine made Guo Zifei immediately think of the Qingying Fruit which had been eaten by Muyan and the child.
She ground her teeth for a moment then suddenly began to sob. “Your Highness, you must seek justice for me! We managed to find a Qingying Fruit with great effort and watched it for three days and nights before snatching it from the mouth of an exotic beast. Who knew that someone else would then rob us?!”
“Qingying Fruit?” Upon hearing “Qingying Fruit,” the man’s eyes couldn’t help but widen. “Where is it?”
Guo Zifei pointed at Muyan and said with a loathing voice, “This woman snatched it away. I told her that it took us great effort to get the Qingying Fruit, but she was just so shameless and she took the fruit and ate it!”
The man looked over in the direction Guo Zifei pointed.
When he saw Muyan, who was holding Xiaobao in her arms, his pupils shrank in a rush.
He immediately released Guo Zifei and took a few steps forward, staring at Muyan dead-on. “Young lady, you ate my Qingying Fruit? Do you know who I am? You’ll pay for taking what’s mine!”
