Avenge For Love novel Chapter 31

"Don't you think the herb is ready?" He asked, interrupting their moment. Mu Ye snapped out his thoughts, and quickly finished tying the cloth.

"When we leave, you have to take care of the wound. I don't want it to get infected." Mu Ye instructed, as if he was older and teaching someone younger.

Hu Jiayi nodded, trying to conceal his joy.

He really wanted to ask if she remembered him from the future but that would be revealing the fact that he knew she wasn't the sixteen year old Wu Xingxie.

He could only wonder what her thoughts about him were as well.

"I'll be in the room soon so don't disturb me." Mu Ye picked up the bowl, walking over to the pot and pouring it in.

Stirring the liquid, she let the tiger's blood mix with the herbs, turning it into a dark colored paste. He didn't even spare a glance before grabbing the pot with his hands, despite the hot temperature, he endured it.

Mu Ye made sure to a protective shield so they couldn't hear him before reverting back to Wu Xingxie.

In order for the remedy to work, the person couldn't have any sort of spell casted on them.

Wu Xingxie tied her long black hair up so it wouldn't get dirty before half stripping, revealing just her torso.

Her pale skin was colored with the black ink which spelled out words she loathed.

Exhaling deeply, Wu Xingxie brought the pot closer, and grabbed a cloth to soak up the mixture. Once it was absorbed, she used the cloth to wipe her chest. As soon at it touched her skin, Wu Xingxie clenched her teeth, feeling the burning sensation.

Despite the pain, this was the only it would work. The mixture worked best when it was still hot. One would think her skin would burn and turn red but because of the ink, the mixture left no mark after it was washed off. It's purpose was to dissolve the ink so the person wouldn't feel the torment when they came in contact with water.

Wu Xingxie continued to make sure every spot was well covered, so that nothing would be left. If she had to use such a method to rid herself of a humiliating moment, then she was willing.

"Just a bit more....." The stinging pain lingered but as the time passed, it lessened, allowing her to breathe in relief.

Wu Xingxie made sure the mixture was dried before wiping it clean with a wet cloth.

Her skin returned to it's original state and she smiled brightly because everything was totally worth it. If she couldn't even endure this, how could she endure worse pain in the future?

Malevolence flashed in her eyes, thinking of what she had to do to give back retribution to those who harmed the people she cared about.

Once I return to the capital, the Wu family better watch their backs!

Before evening came, Mu Ye and Wei ate a final meal with Hu Jiayi. Since his hand was injured, Mu Ye offered to help seeing as he was partly to blame for this.

He was also in a much better mood, having removed the Black Immortal's writings on him.

"You guys are ridiculous. You haven't seen her and you believe all those rumors? Please, what if she was fat and looked like a pig, would you still be wanting to meet her?" Wu Xingxie had no problems with the way people looked but there's other people who hate on others without even knowing the person.

She hated those people who discriminated against others because of their appearance or background. For her, as long as they didn't have any weird or harmful intentions, she would be willing to befriend someone first or at least get to know them when she was given a chance.

Wei and Hu Jiayi heard the tone in his voice and looked at each other in confusion.

We were just praising you, no need to snap!

This Wu Xingxie was truly not normal.

"Ok Mu Ye, I apologize on behalf of my friend, so don't get angry at him. Don't you think he's lonely living here?" Wei tried to calm him down and Mu Ye sighed before standing.

"Let's go, the three days are nearly over and I have lots of things to do when we return." Mu Ye stated and by lots of things, he meant the progress of his revenge.

"Then farewell, I hope to see you again, Mu Ye." Hu Jiayi waved at him, smiling as if he wasn't scolded earlier.

Wei said his goodbyes as well before catching up to Mu Ye.

After Wu Xingxie and Wei were far way from the hut, he told her to now summon her spirit animal so that they could return.
