The Fourth Lady novel Chapter 68

Xuanxin looked to Murong Jingxuan and thought of what Yunhen asked of him, "That Miss Su is of the rare seven death fate, and Shizi just happened to be of the seven death fate as well. If Shizi can watch over Miss Su, you can ensure Miss Su a worry free life."

"Priest, are you saying that I'm Yan'er's destined partner*?" Murong Jingxuan looked to Xuanxin and said in a hard to believe manner.

(*TN: The term also implies husband in the archaic use of the word.)

Xuanxin looked to Murong Jingxuan and nodded, "What Shizi said is correct."

Xuanxin didn't give him the opportunity to reply and continued to speak again, "My senior, Yunhen Priest, once predicted Miss Su's fortune when she was born:

Ten thousand beasts face the Phoenix, a desolate fated girl, a talented commander born under the Ursa Major;

Sundial of nine stars, seven death fate, the five elements eight divine trigrams shine on the golden dragon.

Most importantly, Su Qingyan's life sign was the rare seven death fate sign, short of familial fate and love.

To reincarnate and reborn, all a solitary life."

This part, Murong Jingxuan was rather clear about. He remembered that when he was born, a daoist priest had also told his fortune, and it was precisely the rare seven death fate.

The seven death fate, destined to be short of familial fate and love, to reincarnate and reborn, all a solitary life.

Rather than saying cut of all family and love, it was more accurate to say that the seven death fate can curse to death everyone close to them.

That's why only with two with the same fate together, can their fate change.

But he certainly never thought that Su Qingyan was also of the seven death fate.

"Shizi, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave." Seeing Murong Jingxuan lost in thought, Xuanxin turned and left before he could say anything.

Murong Jingxuan watched Xuanxin's gradually departing figure and smirked.

Yan'er, if that really is the case, then let me become the evil dragon that watches over you.

Murong Jingxuan didn't know why at this moment he particularly missed that slim figure, as if his entire mind was filled with her every move and smile, like she was in his reach.

"Master, an incoming letter from Fengqing said that they've already left Ganyun Temple and are on their way back." Fengshuang reported as he looked Murong Jingxuan, who was laying on the recliner.

Murong Jingxuan, who was in a good mood, softly replied with a 'en'.

"Although, Fengqing did mention something. Something that happened their way to Ganyun Temple." Fengshuang looked to him and continued in a stern tone, "He said that on the way there, they encountered an ambush, seems to be some mountain bandits, however they were all disposed of by Miss Su."

When Murong Jingxuan heard this news, he got up slamming the table, "Why are you only telling me now! Has it already been confirmed that it was the doing of the Jingguo Marquis manor?"

Fengshuang looked to his master, whose mood had suddenly turned worse. He inwardly gulped and continued, "Master, according to Fengqing, it was Miss Su who didn't want to let Shizi worry, so the message was only passed on the way back."

After hearing it was Su Qingyan's arrangement, his irritation from earlier vanished into thin air. "That girl sure is impressive, simply didn't need me to worry for her."

"Master, moreover, on the way to Ganyun Temple, the silver python was with her too. There shouldn't be any mishap." Fengshuang looked to Murong Jingxuan and replied respectfully, "If it goes without incident, Miss Su should be able to return to the Su manor by tonight."

"Alright, understood. That's right. Lastly, is there any movement in Chunyuan Princess' manor?" Murong Jingxuan recalled the sight of seeing Liushang leaving the city and couldn't help to furrow his brows. Could it be that some internal problems arised at the Thousand Beast Pavilion?

"Master, there doesn't seem to be any problems at Chunyuan Princess' manor. Just, even now, Liushang still hasn't returned. Don't know whether or not if something had happened at the Thousand Beast Pavilion." Fengshuang politely replied.
