Shangguan Wanrong glanced at the both of them in surprise as she struggled to remember who they were. However, if they called her Martial Uncle, that meant that they belonged to Pill Sun Sect.
Feng Jiu who was on the side slapped her forehead: “Oh, I forgot to tell you.” She glanced at Chen Dao and Luo Heng and said in an apologetic voice: “I should have told you earlier, this is my mother.”
“Wh, what?” Luo Heng looked at Feng Jiu in shock, and then at Shangguan Wanrong. He couldn’t believe that Feng Jiu was Martial Uncle Shangguan’s daughter.
God, what relationship was this?
Chen Dao who had been listening on the side was a little surprised. So Shangguan Wanrong was Feng Jiu’s mother? If so, then things made sense.
The reason Feng Jiu had infiltrated the Pill Sun Sect to become an errand boy and caused so much trouble, presumably it all had to do with Shangguan Wanrong. Duan Mubai must have known the reason, otherwise, why would he have sent them to inform Feng Jiu of an assassination attempt after she had killed his Master.
There were still many things that were unclear, but Feng Jiu was not someone who would kill people for no reason. Master Third Sun must have done something unspeakable, otherwise, his own disciple wouldn’t have turned against him.
“Mother, this is Chen Dao, and this is Luo Heng. You’ve probably met them before but just forgotten.” Feng Jiu walked over to them and patted their shoulders as she introduced them: “I was the closest to them in Pill Sun Sect, especially Senior Brother Chen who has helped me a lot.”
The others hadn’t noticed anything. However, Xuanyuan Mo Ze watched as she walked over to the two of them and placed her hand on their shoulders. The intimacy and physical contact was an eyesore to him.
Therefore, he stepped forward and came to Feng Jiu’s side. He spoke seriously in a low, majestic voice: “In the past, they didn’t know you were a girl. Now that they do, it’s better not to get too close. Didn’t you notice their shoulders stiffened when you placed your hands there?”
Speaking which, he removed her hands from their shoulders. At the same time, he pulled her into his arms and led her away from the two men and came to the table to sit down.
Chen Dao and Luo Heng were staring at Shangguan Wanrong in a daze and hadn’t paid any attention to Feng Jiu’s hands resting on their shoulders. Although they knew Feng Jiu was a girl, however, she always wore a red robe and not a dress. Besides, after spending time together in the past, naturally they treated her as a man and didn’t feel uncomfortable at all.
Therefore, when they heard Xuanyuan Mo Ze’s words, they froze for a moment. Chen Dao reacted first and smiled, but didn’t say anything. Luo Heng however, instinctively said: “Of course no! We are very comfortable with linking shoulders to shoulders, back when we were in the peak ….”
Before he could finish speaking, he felt Chen Dao nudge him. He paused and looked at him: “What are you doing?”
Chen Dao glanced at him and moved his gaze away and motioned for him to look at Xuanyuan Mo Ze’s dangerous breath all over his body. He was speechless. This kid seemed quite smart usually, how could he be so foolish sometimes?
“Go on! We are listening!” Xuanyuan Mo Ze said in a cool voice. He didn’t know what his woman had become mixing with them in the peak.
