Chapter 116 The Legend of Sword and Fairy Qing'er 14

Unexpectedly, Mo Yixi hated Ming Yuanqing, who had asked Qing'er for help, because of Qing'er's death. After receiving Ming Yuanqing's letter, he threw it into the fire without even reading it.

So Mo Yixi had no idea that Qing'er might not be dead yet.

Having not received a reply from Mo Yixi, Ming Yuanqing could only find a way to investigate Qing'er's whereabouts on his own.

After she evacuated the Moon Worshipers who were surrounding the imperial palace, she secretly sent people to investigate Qing'er's whereabouts, but found nothing in the end.

Until he came here today, Ming Yuanqing sensed Qing'er's shadow in the bride who was worshipping the moon.

Then I followed quietly to see more clearly.

Now that he saw the bride's face clearly, Ming Yuanqing was so shocked that he revealed his whereabouts.

Baiyue, who had just lifted the veil in the room, glanced and noticed Ming Yuanqing peeking.

Baiyue was afraid that Ming Yuanqing would do something bad, so she teleported behind Ming Yuanqing and blocked her way.

"Queen, why are you here if you're not sitting at the table?"

Ming Yuanqing saw that she was discovered, so she simply stopped hiding. She glanced at Qing'er who was looking out of the room, and asked in a low voice: "Baiyue, why is Qing'er here with you, and married to you?"

"This has nothing to do with you! Don't meddle in other people's business!" Baiyue responded coldly and had no intention of explaining to her.

"I want to take Qing'er away from here!" Ming Yuanqing glared at Baiyue. She was sure that Qing'er must have been controlled by Baiyue, otherwise how could she marry Baiyue. She tried to go into the house and take Qing'er away by Baiyue.

Baiyue saw Ming Yuanqing toasting him but he refused to drink the wine as a punishment and his face looked slightly cold.

He would never allow anyone to destroy all this, not even the Queen of Nanzhao!

Baiyue struck Ming Yuanqing on the forehead without warning. Just when Ming Yuanqing thought his life was over, the memory of Qing'er in his mind gradually faded away.

At that moment, Ming Yuanqing understood Baiyue's intention, and the look in his eyes as he glared at Baiyue gradually changed from anger to indifference.

After Ming Yuanqing lost his memories of Qing'er, Baiyue went back to the house to comfort Qing'er, and went out to greet the guests under the pretext of coming to the table, where he cast a spell to take away everyone present's memories of Qing'er.

From then on, no one in Nanzhao knew Qing'er's past. They only knew that Qing'er was the wife of the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult.

It was not until twelve years later, when the grown-up Xin'er wanted to come to Nanzhao to pay tribute to Qing'er in person, that Mo Yixi set foot in the sad land of Nanzhao again.

The father and daughter came to the place where Qing'er and the water monster had died together. The place where the battle took place has now turned into a lake.

When revisiting the old place this time, Mo Yixi's mind uncontrollably replayed the past situation, with deep sadness in his eyes and his heart aching.

Mo Yixi picked up the wine gourd at his waist and took a big gulp, trying to numb himself.

Xin'er knew that Mo Yixi was thinking of his dead mother, so she didn't disturb him. She stayed quietly beside Mo Yixi and reminisced about Qing'er for a while.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Xin'er felt hungry, so she said to Mo Yixi, who was half lying on the grass and drunk, "Dad, I'm a little hungry. I want to buy some food."

"Go! Come back early~" Mo Yixi waved the wine gourd casually and let Xin'er leave alone.

Mo Yixi was still very relieved about Xin'er. Now at the age of sixteen, Xin'er had completely inherited his mantle. Her swordsmanship and magical powers were very impressive. Ordinary people could not get close to Xin'er at all.

After leaving, Xin'er quickly found the street. When she was looking for a restaurant, she accidentally saw Qing'er who was out with her guards to buy food.

Xin'er was stunned for a moment. That person looked exactly like her mother!

Although she was only three years old when Qing'er 'died', she had an early memory and still remembers what Qing'er looked like.

When Xin'er found someone who looked exactly like Qing'er, she didn't care about anything else and followed Qing'er to a courtyard.

Xin'er watched Qing'er walk into the yard with the guards pushing the food. When she looked up, she saw a plaque of the orphanage hanging in the yard.

She pretended to be curious and asked a passerby on the street: "Auntie, who is the lady who just came into the orphanage?"

At first, passers-by were puzzled that someone didn't know the leader's wife, but when they saw Xin'er dressed like a Central Plains person, their doubts disappeared. It turned out that she was a foreigner, so it was no wonder that she didn't know the leader's wife.

Seeing that she was so young and didn't look like a bad person, the passerby told her Qing'er's identity.

"She is the wife of our Moon Worshiper."

The wife of the Moon Worshiper?

Xin'er was suspicious in her heart. She knew that it was the water monster summoned by the Moon Worshiper that caused her to lose her mother.

Baiyue's wife and her mother look almost exactly alike. Is there something she doesn't know? Two people so similar still aroused Xin'er's suspicion.

After sending the passerby lady away, Xin'er waited by the roadside for Qing'er to come out.

There were many people around Qing'er who protected her, and Xin'er didn't find a chance to get close to her.

Finally, Xin'er found Mo Yixi, who was drunk by the lake, with a lot of doubts in her heart. She couldn't wait to wake Mo Yixi up and said incoherently: "Dad, wake up! I saw mom!"

Mo Yixi, who had just woken up, didn't take it seriously at first, thinking it was an illusion caused by Xin'er missing Qing'er too much.

Ke Xin'er swore that she had seen a woman who looked exactly like Qing'er. This instantly perked up Mo Yixi.

"Are you sure that person looks exactly like your mother?"

"Yeah, yeah!" Xin'er nodded continuously.

Mo Yixi sat up and stroked his chin with a serious expression.

Since the battle more than ten years ago, he has never clearly recalled Qing'er's voice, appearance and smile. Now that he has met someone who looks exactly like Qing'er, he must go and see what's going on.

He used his magical powers to dispel the smell of alcohol around him, and brought Xin'er to the outskirts of the Moon Worship Sect, hiding in a secluded corner, hoping to try his luck and see if he could run into the woman who looked exactly like Qing'er.

They were lucky. Not long after they arrived here, they saw Qing'er taking a walk with Baiyue.

When Qing'er thought of the lively children in the orphanage, a bright smile broke out on her face.

Baiyue saw that she was happy and was very satisfied with the method he had proposed.

A few years ago, Qing'er had been obsessed with having a child, but no matter how hard she tried, there was no movement in her belly.

Not to mention that the descendants of Nuwa can only give birth to one child in their lifetime, given Qing'er's physical condition, she is unable to bear the hardship of raising a child.

Baiyue didn't want her to dwell on this matter, and in order to divert Qing'er's attention, Baiyue suggested that she open an orphanage to adopt homeless children.

The orphanage was opened under such circumstances, and most of the energy of these young people was focused on the children in the orphanage. Fortunately, there were these children, otherwise Baiyue would be afraid that Qing'er would think too much and get stuck in a dead end.

These children were worthy of Qing'er's efforts. After they grew up, most of them joined the Moon Worship Sect to serve him out of gratitude, adding many loyal subordinates to the Moon Worship Sect.
