Chapter 251: An Unnecessary Existence

By the time Qiao Mu woke up, the sun hung high in the sky.
As she knelt on the bed while hugging her thin blanket, her expression was a bit dazed.
She actually slept very well last night, but her heart felt rather unsettled for some reason.
In her vague dream, she seemed to have seen the crown prince departing on the back of a dragon. The youth’s cool back figure turned into a red dot and grew more intense the farther he got before he turned into a blazing ball of flames that could incinerate thousands of layers of icebergs and thousands of miles of snowy peaks…
He left. Duan Yue also ran off. Master, Eldest Senior Sister, everyone all left. It was as though the air around her turned silent in that instant, and she was the only one left in the world again.
A faint trace of loneliness lingered in her heart, unable to be brushed off for a long while.
It was like a long time ago, she was also abandoned by someone important once.
“Master, good morning! Master is beautiful like a flower today! Pretty, pretty, really pretty!” The silence was utterly shattered by a certain golem’s boisterous voice.
“Sister!” Qiao Lin slammed opened the door with a bang with her round body and sent a large grin to her sister.
Qiao Mu hopped down from the bed, the gloominess in her heart swept away. She took her sister’s hand and said with a smile, “Let’s wash up.”
“Master… Master, wait for me!” The little golem bounced after the sisters.
Xiao Lin’er curiously glanced back. “Ah, Sister, that little puppet knows how to talk!”
“That’s right. His name is Big Treasure. Not only can he talk, but he can also do many things.” Qiao Mu half carried her chubby sister across the high door sill and walked to the ground floor of the building.
After pushing open the door, a ray of sunlight shone in from outside, the warmth causing her eyes to involuntarily squint.
Qiao Mu’s footsteps paused and she dug out the messenger jade tablet universally used by the Hidden Pavilion and Night Pavilion.
A row of characters swiftly appeared on the surface. [Dear Miss, Guard Nian of King of An’nan’s Estate arrived at Guanlan City and is currently rushing toward the King’s Estate.]
Qiao Mu took out her talisman pen and wrote her reply back on the messenger tablet: [Keep watching them. Quickly report as soon as the guard meets that something-something commandery princess.]
“Sister, what are you writing?” Xiao Lin’er blinked with curiosity.
“Sister’s writing how to punish an evil person.” A cold smile spread across Qiao Mu’s lips. A swipe of her hand and the strand of Nian Kui’s soul was in her grasp.
‘Hui’an of the Vassal King of An’nan’s Estate, is it? Did you think it was over that easily?’
‘We’ve never met but you had the nerve to harm me. It’s unnecessary for a person like you to exist then, no…?’
—-Darling Qiao Mu’s section break—-
“Cha cha cha cha!!!” The hurtling horse rapidly dashed through the main road of Guanlan City, causing all the pedestrians to quickly dodge in fright and yield a path.
The people who lived in the royal capital had long since learned the servant uniforms of all the high officials and patrician families who resided here.
When they saw that it was a guard of the Vassal King of An’nan’s Estate who was rapidly galloping past them, they did not dare to say anything and obediently dodged to the side.
The people of the Vassal King of An’nan’s Estate were used to being arrogant and running rampant inside Guanlan City. No one dared to offend them, or else they would not end well.
Nian Kui’s face was dark and his hands were tightly clutching the horse’s reins as he dashed back to the Vassal King’s Estate.
When the horse arrived in front of the estate, Nian Kui leaped down from the horse and threw the reins to the door boy.
He had to immediately report to the commandery princess that His Highness the Crown Prince had left the royal capital overnight and had an illicit meeting with that lowly commoner girl. He even extracted a strand of his soul because of that girl.
Extremely abominable! He had to request the commandery princess to act on his behalf and ask for that strand of his soul back!
