2463 Public Apology
Mu Rouyan couldn't stomach the thought of this.
How could she cower in fear because of a girl who popped out from who knows where?
It was definitely her imagination earlier! It was fake!
Mu Rouyan's eyes had turned red from fury. She pointed at Qiao Mu and then turned to tell Mu Rouxuan, "Eldest Sister, do you know? This person stole our Mu Clan's storage talisman! What am I doing wrong by telling her to hand it over?"
Mu Rouxuan was startled. She then carefully looked Qiao Mu over.
The little lady's features were so outstanding that it took one's breath away, but there was simply not much superfluous expression on that fair and delicate face.
Her glossy black eyes were especially bewitching.
Qiao Mu was simply about to laugh from anger.
Her icy gaze swept over the maidservant beside Mu Rouyan.
What kind of enmity made this maidservant accuse her wrongly?
That maidservant lowered her head with a guilty conscience.
Qiao Mu did not remember seeing this maidservant beside Mu Rouyan.
This maidservant had probably just happened to see her collecting fish with a storage talisman in the morning…
There were so many people there at that time. She wasn't like Mo Lian who had a photographic memory and could remember everyone.
"She was there." Mo Lian nodded and gave her the answer without her even needing to ask.
Even though the scene had been chaotic, Crown Prince Mo's photographic memory captured all the people present. He could naturally recount all the details.
Qiao Mu moved her wrist, and a storage talisman encircled with blue light suddenly popped out from her hand and levitated in front of her.
"Are you talking about this talisman?"
"That's right!" Mu Rouyan's eyes abruptly lit up, and she reached out to grab the storage talisman without a second word.
She was also shouting arrogantly, "You're still not admitting that you stole our Mu Clan's talisman? Who doesn't know in this entire Divine Province that only the Mu Clan can draw storage talismans! What do you think you are? How dare you refuse to admit that you stole our Mu Clan's talisman and act so wantonly here?"
Qiao Mu's electrifying gaze landed on the hand that was reaching for the storage talisman.
A blue spiritual purifying fire lit up in her palm, and she threw it over without room for objection. It burst apart on the back of Mu Rouyan's hand.
"Ah!" Mu Rouyan reflexively clutched the back of her hand that got scorched red. Her eyes were red from fury, and she screeched at Qiao Mu, "You crazy woman! What are you doing?"
"Who exactly is the crazy one? I believe those present who aren't blind are able to tell!" Qiao Mu stared coldly at the girl and cornered her step by step. "Then do you dare bet with me?"
Mu Rouyan refused to acknowledge it, and she backed away cowardly.
"The bet is, which one of us, can draw a storage talisman on the spot." Qiao Mu stared at her icily while taking another step forward. "Do you dare? Idiot."
"If you can craft the exact same blue storage talisman, I will give your Mu Clan a public apology. It's up to you whether you want to scold or hit me. However, if you cannot!" Her voice instantly turned cruel. She pointed at Mu Rouyan's chest and declared harshly, "You will kneel down! And kowtow one hundred times to me, your great aunt, to admit your fault! You will loudly announce to everyone that you are the reincarnation of a stupid pig and got possessed by a drama queen!"
Mu Rouyan abruptly backed away. If not for two Mu Clan maidservants supporting her from the back, she might have plopped down on her butt due to her knees giving in.
