Chapter 396: Shangguan Qingyue’s Anger
"The Yuanxi Hall? Grandpa Huangfu?"
Chen Hongde nodded to Shangguan Qingyue. "Junior Brother Feng joined our sect because he’s the son of Grandpa Huangfu’s old friend, and his father used to work at the Yanxi Hall, so they have a fairly close relationship."
Shangguan Qingyue was stunned after hearing that; she didn’t expect that Feng Xiao had such a close relationship with Huangfu Lingxuan, and her aunt didn’t tell her about their relationship. However, he knew that the old man did have many friends, and his friends came not only from the Song Kingdom but also the other kingdoms and even the Empire.
In fact, Mu Qingge contacted Tang Xiao as soon as Shangguan Qingyue appeared in front of her a few days ago, and he contacted Huangfu Lingxuan to ask for information about that woman.
Huangfu Lingxuan, who had argued with Shangguan Qingyin a few days before Tang Xiao contacted him, immediately realized that the queen sent Shangguan Qingyue to the Nine Profound Sect to get close to him.
Huangfu Lingxuan didn’t tell his granddaughter, Huangfu Meizhen, about his plans. He informed Tang Xiao of some things about Shangguan Qingyue, and he allowed him to use the name of the Yuanxi Hall if necessary.
Since he had coordinated with Huangfu Lingxuan, Tang Xiao’s clone asked Chen Hongde to reveal his relationship with the Yuanxi Hall in front of Shangguan Qingyue.
Shangguan Qingyue looked back, specifically at Tang Xiao’s clone, who was walking behind them while embracing Mu Qingge’s waist. She tried to send a voice message to Shangguan Qingyin, but the formations in the forest prevented her from doing that. ’Does he really have a close relationship with Grandpa Huangfu?’
Tang Xiao’s clone’s lips curled up. "Senior Sister, I know that I am handsome and dashing, so you shouldn’t look at me like that; otherwise, you will fall in love with me."
’This rogue husband of mine!’ Mu Qingge inwardly spoke in amusement.
"Humph!" Shangguan Qingyue snorted and walked away. "Your face is ugly and your skin is as thick as a palace wall!"
Chen Hongde and Su Xiulan looked at Tang Xiao’s clone before turning to follow Shangguan Qingyue while laughing in their hearts.
Tang Xiao’s clone rubbed his nose, glancing at Mu Qingge, who was trying hard to hold back her laughter. "You don’t have to hold back your laughter, you know?"
"Why do I feel like you’re getting thicker-skinned lately?"
"If I don’t act like this, I can’t protect you from that woman."
Mu Qingge smiled when she heard that. "You care so much for me, husband."
"How could I not care about you?" Tang Xiao’s clone asked with a smile. "You’re such a selfless woman, and you’re willing to accept me for Yan’er’s sake. Since you’re my wife, I will treasure you for the rest of my life, and I will always protect you from those evil people."
Mu Qingge leaned her head on his shoulder. "Even though I initially accepted you because of my daughter, I’ve fallen in love with you now, and I’m happy to have you as my husband."
"Do you know how happy I was when we became one?" Mu Qingge looked up at him. "Your character is so gentle and affectionate, so I’m truly fortunate that you’re willing to give me the chance to be your husband."
"Husband."
"Yes?"
"I want to have children with you."
"I, too, want to have children with you."
"When our lives are much better, and there are not many dangers threatening our lives, I want you to impregnate me then."
"I promise I will get you pregnant at that time, and we will have some children in the future."
"I already have a daughter, so I hope I will give birth to a son for you in the future."
"Whether a son or a daughter, it doesn’t matter to me, and our child will be proof of our love."
Mu Qingge herself didn’t have a problem with whether her child with Tang Xiao was a son or a daughter, but she still hoped that they would have a son in the future. "By the way, Yan’er will have a birthday soon, and she will turn eighteen at that time."
"I remember." Tang Xiao’s clone smiled, remembering Mu Yan’s impatient look. "I will prepare the best gift for Yan’er to reach adulthood, so she will never forget it for the rest of her life."
Mu Qingge stood on tiptoe and whispered into Tang Xiao’s clone’s ear, making him look at her with perplexity.
"Do you really want to do that?"
Mu Qingge blushed at his teasing look. "I really want to do it."
"Alright." Tang Xiao’s clone whispered into Mu Qingge’s ear, her face flushed to the tips of her ears.
[Master.] Tang Xiao’s clone raised an eyebrow. [You can check all areas of the forest through the map, and I’ve already helped you distinguish the formations, so you won’t be trapped by any of them. Besides, I detected the movements of two powerful cultivators, and they are members of the Situ Clan.]
Tang Xiao’s clone frowned for a moment, and he pulled Mu Qingge along as he explained the situation to her. Soon, they arrived at Chen Hongdei, Su Xiulan, and Shangguan Qingyue’s side. "Follow me! Two people from the Situ Clan are following us, and they seem to be targeting Senior Sister Qingge."
"Tch! It must be because of that bastard!" Shangguan Qingyue was familiar with the characters of Sun Weitian and Situ Lingxi, and she was certain that the latter ordered her two bodyguards to capture Mu Qingge because her fiancé was attracted to her.
Chen Hongde and Su Xiulan’s expressions turned ugly; they also shared Shangguan Qingyue’s opinion.
"We don’t need to bother with them for now, and we should stay away from them because they’re too strong." Tang Xiao’s clone carried Mu Qingge and walked in front of the three.
"Hey! This forest is filled with formations, so don’t step carelessly!" Shangguan Qingyue shouted to remind Tang Xiao’s clone, but he didn’t listen to her.
Not to mention Mu Qingge, even Chen Hongde and Su Xiulan had complete trust in Tang Xiao’s clone, and they hurriedly followed behind him without asking a single question.
"Tch! That bastard!" Shangguan Qingyue exclaimed as she stomped her feet and hurried to catch up with Tang Xiao’s clone and the others.

The two members of the Situ Clan were surprised when Tang Xiao’s clone and the others quickened their pace, and they both wanted to follow them. However, they remembered those formations, so they didn’t dare move recklessly.
They decided to wait for Situ Lingxi and Sun Weitian, who were a short distance behind them.
A few minutes later, Situ Lingxi and Sun Weitian arrived in the area.
Sun Weitian frowned when he saw the two members of the Situ Clan but said nothing. Although he was Situ Lingxi’s fiancé, he had no right to question or order people from her clan.
One of them reported to Situ Lingxi about the actions of Tang Xiao’s clone and the others. Her brows tightened together as she got angry, but she herself was aware of the situation in the forest. "Go! Look for them and bring them to me!"
"Yes, young miss."
"Did you order them to capture that woman?"
Situ Lingxi glared at Sun Weitian. "What? Are you worried that I will kill that woman? I ordered the two of them to capture their group, including Shangguan Qingyue!"
"Hmm?" Sun Weitian frowned deeper. "Are you crazy? Do you want to start a war with the Song Kingdom? Shangguan Qingyue is Shangguan Qingyin’s beloved niece, remember? If you do anything to her, she won’t let you off the hook even if you are Queen Situ’s niece!"
"Humph!" Situ Lingxi snorted at Sun Weitian, but she didn’t explain anything to him, and she walked away. As a member of the Situ Clan, she naturally knew Shangguan Qingyin and Shangguan Qingyue’s relationship, but she couldn’t possibly tell her fiancé that she had ordered her bodyguards specifically to capture Mu Qingge.
’Tch! What a troublesome jealous woman!’ Sun Weitian was furious. ’If it weren’t for my parents’ request and Queen Situ’s insistence, I would never have been willing to get engaged to her, let alone marry her.’

Meanwhile, Tang Xiao’s clone and his group were already far ahead, and they were starting to slow down.
"Hey! How did you manage to lead us through all those formations so easily?"
Tang Xiao’s clone turned to Shangguan Qingyue. "Senior Sister, my name is Feng Xiao and not ’Hey this’ or ’Hey that’! If you want to ask me, you have to ask politely."
"You!" Shangguan Qingyue’s chest rose up and down. "Junior Brother Feng, how did you manage to lead us through all those formations so easily?"
"I won’t tell you about that because it’s my secret."
"You bastard! You’re toying with me! I’ll beat you up!"
As soon as Shangguan Qingyue moved, Tang Xiao’s clone immediately took Mu Qingge to avoid her.
"Senior Sister, you’ll grow old quickly if you keep getting angry like that! Besides, no man likes rude and haughty women! If you keep acting like this, you’ll end up as an old maid!"
Shangguan Qingyue’s face turned dark red as her anger boiled over.
Tang Xiao’s clone mocked her again. "You are a woman, and you come from a noble clan, so you should mind your manners. If necessary, you should learn from Senior Sister Qingge; her manners are even more noble than yours."
Shangguan Qingyue fiercely glared at Tang Xiao’s clone like a hungry tigress ready to pounce on him. In the end, she was forced to suppress her anger and ignore him, but her hatred for him deepened. Unfortunately, she didn’t know that the man who always teased and argued with her was her main target. "Let’s go!"
