Chapter 891 - 558: Using the Demon Race's Money and Resources to Improve Yourself!
"My name is Murong Qingsi."
The young woman sighed helplessly, then sat back on the bed.
Murong Qingyao and Murong Qingwan also blinked their bright eyes, staring blankly at Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan.
"Why are there two more people in Luoye City?"
After a sigh, Murong Qingsi also asked Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan.
"The two of us are orphans, and later we met Mr. Lan, that's how we got these names."
Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan exchanged a glance before speaking according to the information they had.
The identity information Lan Jingtong gave them was completely different from what he had told them.
However, at the end of the information, Lan Jingtong also said,
not to listen to him, and to act according to the information provided.
After all, when an identity is maintained for too long, it's easy to forget.
So the two of them told Murong Qingsi according to the recorded information.
According to the information, they are from a branch of the Murong Family in Luoye City.
And Mu Qianshan is from a branch of the Shangguan Family in Luoye City.
In earlier years, Grotto Heaven opened in Luoye City, and the Demon Race in Luoye City was slaughtered.
Both the Murong Family and the Shangguan Family were wiped out.
Later, Luoye City slowly recovered.
But because the Murong and Shangguan families in Luoye City were completely destroyed,
the two families never bothered with the affairs of their respective families again.
The identity Lan Jingtong created was that of the survivors from the destroyed families in Luoye City.
They were hidden as infants back then and were not exterminated, leaving descendants for Luoye City's line.
However, due to some reasons, they were unaware of their identities and were adopted by civilians outside of Luoye City.
After their adoptive parents passed away two years ago, Lan Jingtong passed through Luoye City, saw their talent, and accepted them as disciples to train them.
But as they grew older, Lan Jingtong noticed they increasingly resembled the Murong and Shangguan families.
So he planned to take them to Three Families City to see if they truly were members of the Murong and Shangguan families who had fallen from grace.
However, halfway through the journey, something urgent arose, and he entered Grotto Heaven.
Their abilities had both surpassed the Seventh Realm, providing some measure of safety, so Lan Jingtong let them come on their own first.
After traveling here, they were low on money, so they thought to participate in competitions to earn some.
Upon hearing a suggestion yesterday, they came today.
Then they muddled through the selection, leading to the current situation.
After hearing the two's explanation, Murong Qingsi understood.
Murong Qingyao and Murong Qingwan, on the other hand, looked down awkwardly.
"It's all auntie's fault, always talking about drinking and admiring beauty, otherwise we wouldn't be curious."
Murong Qingyao felt awkward but spoke first.
"Exactly, exactly."
Murong Qingwan, although younger, backed her sister, joining the reproach against their aunt.
Murong Qingsi felt awkward hearing this.
Even more so than the Murong sisters.
Because it really was her fault.
She was just talking big!
Saying things like drinking and admiring men was just talk!
The name Qianhua Pavilion alone reveals it's a chicken coop.
How could a chicken coop have ducks?
It was only because the two sisters kept wanting to gain experience, so she told the people at Qianhua Pavilion to get some ducks.
Perhaps, maybe, possibly, that's the reason that guy saw them on the road yesterday.
Then, seeing their handsome faces, he coaxed them into joining the competition today.
They advanced directly.
And then met her.
No, better disband Qianhua Pavilion.
This mishap is truly embarrassing!
Yet she couldn't voice her grievances.
After all, she was always so carefree in front of the youngsters.
How could she admit it?
Saying she was just pretending?
Claiming that all the times she came to Qianhua Pavilion to drink and admire men, doing frivolous things, were lies?
If word got out, her reputation in front of the juniors would be completely ruined!
Thinking of this, Murong Qingsi glared at Murong Qingyao and Murong Qingwan.
"You say you're Mr. Lan's disciples and that he brought you because you resemble our family and the Shangguan Family?"
Murong Qingsi decisively changed the subject.
Hearing this, Murong Qingwan and Murong Qingyao grew curious, looking at Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan.
"Yes, but he had to leave midway, saying we should come first and that he'd take us after he arrives."
Jiang Yuan nodded obediently, making Murong Qingyao's eyes once again sparkle.
If they're not ducks, could it mean a proper relationship could begin?
After all, the branch in Luoye City is indeed quite distant from their branch.
"Alright, so are you waiting for Mr. Lan to return, or will you come with us now?"
Murong Qingsi glanced at Murong Yunhai, who did bear some resemblance to her family.
Their ears had a slightly pointed tip, a distinctive family trait.
As for Shangguan Ruiqian beside him?
They'd have to wait for the Shangguan Family members to inspect.
"We'll wait for Mr. Lan's return."
Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan exchanged a look, and Mu Qianshan decisively spoke.
