Chapter 420: Hair Turned White Overnight

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When Mo Tu woke up the next morning, he saw a hunting eagle that was half the height of a human beside him. He got a shock and quickly sat up.

Su Ying walked in at this point and straightaway grabbed the messenger eagle’s wings and dragged it outside the dilapidated temple. When she came back, the messenger eagle had disappeared.

When she saw Mo Tu’s puzzled gaze, Su Ying said, “1 don’t know where it came from.”

Mo Tu appeared scared. “It’s quite frightening.”

The three of them had a simple meal of dry food and continued on their way.

Su Ying sat cross-legged in the horse carriage. As she munched on melon seeds, she said casually, “The Red Demon Sect failed to assassinate me this time. They will probably come again.”

“Of course, they have to complete the task if they accepted someone’s money to help him eliminate trouble.”

“What if the Red Demon Sect people are unable to kill me?”

“The Red Demon Sect will usually take action three times. If they fail three times, they will pay back ten times the commission fee.”

Su Ying said faintly, “You know quite a bit about them.”

Mo Tu chuckled softly. “The Red Demon Sect is quite famous in the martial arts world. People who make a living in this sector would more or less know a little about them.”

Su Ying took out the map and looked at it. Their next destination was Binn City.

They entered Binn City before the city gates closed at night.

Mo Tu drove the carriage along the street with familiarity. Finally, he stopped outside an inn.

Su Ying carried Que Que and jumped off the horse carriage. When they entered the inn, a waiter came out to welcome them.

“Dear guests, do you want to stay in the inn?”

Mo Tu nodded. “Mm-hmm. Two guest rooms.”

“Alrighty. Please follow me.”

The waiter brought them to the second floor and pushed open the doors of two rooms. “Please take a look. If you’re not satisfied, we have other rooms.”

Compared to the inns in Haiyang City, the environment here looked much better, but Su Ying wasn’t picky about these things. It was good enough as long as it was livable for humans.

“At night, Que Que is always clamoring for you. Let her rest with you tonight.” Mo Tu led Que Que to Su Ying.

Su Ying glanced at him and held Que Que’s hand. “Alright.”

At night, they only had a simple meal in the inn before resting.

In the darkness, Mo Tu sat up on the bed. He listened to the movements outside and only jumped out of the window after making sure that there was nothing unusual.

His figure leaped swiftly in the darkness and finally stopped at an inconspicuous private dwelling.

He walked into the main house and lit the candle. Before long, a figure appeared outside the door.

However, the black shadow did not enter the house immediately. Instead, he stood outside the house warily as if he was confirming something.

“Come in,” said Mo Tu.

The person outside the door was obviously stunned. He quickly pushed the door open and walked in. When he saw Mo Tu’s dim and obscure appearance under the candlelight, his two eyes widened in pleasant surprise. “Master, it’s really you!”

The candlelight flickered unsteadily, but the reflection in Mo Tu’s seductive eyes was like a deep abyss. “It is me. What’s the situation over there now?”

“Now that he’s in power, he has purged everyone who is loyal to you, Master. There are those who died and also those who were injured, but none were spared.”

Mo Tu’s eyes revealed a hint of a smile, but the corners of his eyes were dyed a bloodthirsty red. “He is really my good younger brother.”

“It’s great that you have returned, Master. Your subordinate will contact the remaining people now. They have been searching for your whereabouts.”

“Mm-hmm. Tell them not to act rashly and to await my orders.”

“Yes, Sir.”

“I will arrive at Duo City in a few days. Tell them to wait for me there.”

“Yes, Sir.”

Mo Tu returned to the inn and was about to jump through the window when he saw Su Ying walking out of her room.

He hid himself on the roof and watched as Su Ying left the house, went downstairs to the back courtyard, and entered the kitchen. After that, she didn’t come out for a long time.

Mo Tu shook his head helplessly and got down from the roof. He followed in her tracks until he reached the outside of the kitchen.

“Did you come out to steal some food because you didn’t eat enough at dinnertime?”

Su Ying turned around when she heard the noise and saw Mo Tu leaning against the kitchen door with a sleepy look on his face.

Su Ying was indeed hungry. The inn’s food tonight was plain and bland, and it couldn’t fill her tummy for long. However, she didn’t want to eat the mostly dry food in the interspatial store, so she went to the kitchen to get something warm.

Su Ying tossed the firewood into the stove, and the fire immediately roared to life.

Mo Tu walked in and opened the pot lid before asking, “What do you want to eat? I’ll cook it for you.”

“There are only noodles and eggs here. Let’s make egg noodles.”

“Alright.”

Mo Tu rolled up his sleeves matter-of-factly and skillfully added water into the pot. After the water came to a boil, he put the noodles in.

Su Ying crossed her arms and observed his back profile as he busied himself. She suddenly asked, “How did your hair turn white?”

“I was so heartbroken that my hair turned white overnight.”

Su Ying’s curiosity was piqued. “What could make you so sad?”

Mo Tu’s expression froze. Then he turned around to look at Su Ying earnestly. “For example, if you say that you want to kill me, these words are enough to make me sad. If you kill me and then dismember me, 1 will definitely be heartbroken. But if you go on to be intimate with my enemies after dismembering me, 1 will even turn into a malicious ghost to come for your soul, let alone have my hair turn all white!”

Su Ying felt a chill of disgust run down her spine when she heard Mo Tu’s analogy, but she still detected a flash of killing intent in Mo Tu’s eyes.

“So your hair turned white because someone stole your girl and you were cheated on.”

Mo Tu’s eyebrows twitched violently and his expression turned very unsightly.

A bowl of steaming hot egg noodles was served to Su Ying. “Is that enough? If it’s not enough, I’ll cook more for you.”

Su Ying picked up the bowl and started eating. “That’s enough. 1 shouldn’t eat too much at night. It’s easy to get indigestion.”

The corners of Mo Tu’s eyes twitched as he looked at the bowl that was bigger than Su Ying’s head. “Then you should eat less!” he thought.

They did not stay in Binn City for long. The next morning, they went to the city to buy some food and daily necessities before continuing their journey.

The closer they got to Duo City, the more Su Ying could sense that something was wrong with Mo Tu’s mood.

The horse carriage stopped in front of a tea stall outside Duo City.

Now that the city gates were closed, they could only enter the city tomorrow.

Mo Tu sat down at the table in front of the tea stall with Que Que in his arms. The owner of the tea stall walked over with a smile. “Would you like some tea or snacks, Sir?”

“A pot of tea and two portions of snacks.”

“All, alrighty.”

At this point, there were no other guests at the tea stall except for them.

The owners of the tea stall were a middle-aged couple who looked like ordinary commoners.

After the tea and snacks were served, the couple went to the stall and busied themselves there. Although there were no other customers now, the two of them looked like they had endless things to do.

Mo Tu picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Su Ying. Before Su Ying could pick up the cup, a slender figure walked over and sat down across from Mo Tu.

“Big Brother, you’re really still alive!”

Su Ying raised her head to look at the person who had just arrived. His face was as tender as a peach blossom, and he had slender almond-shaped eyes and cherry-hued lips. He was truly an exquisite, delicate, and attractive young man.

After he sat down, he locked his gaze on Mo Tu’s face, completely ignoring the existence of the other people.

“Big Brother, don’t you remember me?” When Mo Qian saw that Mo Tu didn’t respond, he reached out, intending to grab his hand. “Big Brother, are you angry at me? Big Brother?”

Mo Tu looked at the hand on the back of his hand, and his eyes turned frosty.

“Let go..”
