Chapter 300: Down the mountain, less self-control (Part 1)
The person making noises outside the imperial hall was no other than Mo Yuer, who learned her father’s death.
Mo Yuer, naturally, didn’t cry like any other women in the palace harem. She just stood and stared coldly at the eunuch, who was guarding at the door: “I want to see the emperor.”
“This is the imperial palace hall, the palace harem is not allowed to enter here. Please, Yu Meiren, just go back to your palace quickly.” The palace people have always been aware of who has the lowest and highest reputation in the imperial harem. Mo Yuer doesn’t rely on her father’s reputation. Because in the harem, she was favored because she was the most beautiful among them all.
“I want to see the emperor.” Mo Yuer has never been a nice speaker, so she simply didn’t back down when the eunuch stopped her.
Although Mo Yuer has no strong background, she was after all an imperial concubine. So, the eunuch didn’t dare to be rude, he tried to persuade her again: “Yu Meiren, please return to your palace first, the emperor will go and see you later.”
“I said, I want to see the emperor, didn’t you hear me?!” Mo Yuer repeated her words again, but her voice was louder than the previous one. The eunuch was scared and kowtowed in the ground: “Yu Meiren, please forgive this servant, but this servant cannot just let you in.”
“Then go and ask, it’s not up to you, whether the emperor will see me or not.” Mo Yuer looked calm and silent. But, many people in the palace dared not to offend her, because… …
She was Divine Doctor Mo’s daughter. Who knows if she has medical skills and uses it to punish them.
The Emperor wanted to treat the noise outside like it was nothing. However, it became louder and louder and he had a headache. The Emperor waved his hand to Imperial Doctor Qin, indicating that he should continue his treatment. When the eunuch entered the hall to report, the emperor said impatiently: “Tell Yu Meiren, zhen cannot be bothered right now, zhen will see her later.”
The eunuch reported back the emperor’s words to Mo Yuer, then he asked her again to leave.
Mo Yuer had a pale face like a paper. She bites her lips, as her tears keep falling down from her eyes while staring at the door of the imperial hall.
The Empress once told her before, if she loses her father, who was famous in the four countries. The Emperor will no longer care about her identity. She must bear this humiliation.
After turning away, Mo Yuer waited for the whole night, but the emperor didn’t come. The next morning, she inquired about the emperor’s where about. Mo Yuer learned that Imperial Concubine Zhou met the Emperor along the way, and she intercepted with his visit.

The first ray of the sunlight shone in the forest and on Lin Chujiu’s face. Her a bit fluffy cheek was clearly seen… …
White, soft… … people couldn’t help but want to touch it.
Lin Chujiu’s eyelids trembled a bit. Demon Lord knew that Lin Chujiu will wake up. He didn’t look at her indifferently because he didn’t look at her face again.
When Lin Chujiu woke up, she saw Demon Lord sitting across from her. She was already used with his ghostly mask, so she didn’t get scared.
“Morning.” Lin Chujiu’s voice was soft but has some trace of laziness from waking up.
“Mmm.” Demon Lord simply replied and got up, then he walked outside the cave.
A man who just woke up early in the morning has much less self-control!
The forests early in the morning has full of vitality and the air was clear, so people couldn’t help but get indulged with it.
Lin Chujiu walked out of the cave and lazily stretched out her waist. The wounds on her body ache. She found her sore muscles seemed became much worse than last night.
However, this pain was still within the range of Lin Chujiu’s pain tolerance. At least, she was sure that she can still walk down from the Wolf Mountain.
After a quarter of an hour, Demon Lord came back with water and wild fruits. The water was placed in a bamboo tube. The amount was quite large, she could wash a bit after drinking.
Chapter 300: Down the mountain, less self-control (Part 2)
Lin Chujiu knew that this man in front of her was like Xiao Tianyao. He doesn’t accept verbal thank you, so she didn’t waste her saliva to say her thanks.
After a quarter of an hour, Lin Chujiu cleaned up herself and finished the wild fruit. The two people ready themselves to go down the mountain.
In order to save time and in order to avoid the wolves, Demon Lord didn’t let Lin Chujiu walk. He hugged her and jumped up from the treetops all the way down of the mountain.
Seeing Demon Lord not even panting a bit after going down the mountain. Lin Chujiu wanted to ask: Demon Lord since you have such skills, why didn’t you sent me down last night? Why did we stay on the mountain for a night?
Well, Lin Chujiu admits that she was scared to ask such questions.
“I was really lucky to meet you this time. If you didn’t show up, I don’t know how I am going to leave the Wolf Mountain.” Demon Lord doesn’t like verbal thanks, so Lin Chujiu didn’t say thank you directly. She just expressed sentences with the same meaning,
Demon Lord didn’t appreciate her words, he sarcastically replied: “This lord also think the same. Without this lord, you can only live in there.”
“How is that possible… …” Lin Chujiu faintly smiled and didn’t continue her words.
She never expects anyone to save her. His appearance was just an accident. Although she was happy about it, she was not that excited to see a life-saving grace.
She was happy to meet Demon Lord, but she will also be fine if he didn’t appear. She will find a way to go down the mountain by herself. She never pinned hope of her survival to other people.
“Where are you going? This lord will not only help you to go down but also will give you a ride.” There were a thousand meters away from the Wind Cliff Valley up to the capital’s gate. If Lin Chujiu will just walk, she might only encounter those people catching her, when the night came.
“Is it okay to go somewhere else?” Lin Chujiu’s eye lit up and couldn’t help but asked in a hurry.
Knowing what Lin Chujiu was thinking, Demon Lord couldn’t help but sneer: “Aside from the capital, where else do you want to go?” This woman was really courageous. She was actually thinking to leave the capital?
“None, I am going back to the capital.” Lin Chujiu’s desire immediately diminished.
Demon Lord was right, aside from the capital, where else can she go?
*whistle* Demon Lord took a deep breath and whistled out loud. From the corner of the Wolf Mountain, a maroon horse ran out and went to his side. However, Demon Lord pushed the horse to side.
Whether it was a person or a horse, he doesn’t like getting close to others.
The horse bowed down his head, Lin Chujiu seemed to have seen the grievances to the horse’s eyes.
Lin Chujiu looked at Demon Lord who was staring at his horse and asked: “Don’t you like him?”
“It is a very spiritual horse.” As soon as Demon Lord opened his mouth, the horse looked at him. It seemed to be confused.
“It is a wild horse from the Wolf Mountain. I’ve been raising him since he was born.” This horse was the only playmate he has during his childhood.
“No wonder… …” He was so close to you.
“Let’s go, I will send you back to the capital.” Demon Lord was not willing to talk about himself any further. After turning with the horse, he reached out his hand to Lin Chujiu… …
Of course, he can directly grab Lin Chujiu to the horse, but he likes it when she extends her hand towards him as if she was giving everything about herself to him.
When Demon Lord’s big hand hold Lin Chujiu’s small hand, he put some force. The horse also walked forward, so Lin Chujiu was pulled.
One person and one horse have a tacit understanding. Lin Chujiu just sat down on the maroon colored horse, as it ran all the way to the road, without needing to be controlled… …
