Chapter 983: Xia Moyan’s Action

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Xia Ling was stretching her body in the practice room.

All these years she had never once fallen behind in practicing her basic singing and dancing skills. Even when she had been captured by Li Feng, she would close her eyes and practice in her mind. This not only helped her surpass the other singers by a great extent, but it also helped her remain peaceful.

The sunlight shone through the glass window into the room.

Her whole body seemed to be plated with an obscure layer of gold.

She extended her four limbs, stretched her back and spun. She was as elegant and light as a feline.

Er Mao lied down lazily on the wooden floor next to the window and looked at her sleepily. His life had become less boring ever since his owner had gotten married—there was more fragility in his territory now… Yes, at least in Er Mao’s eyes it was like that… The female master as well as the two children that needed protecting. They were not like Master, who could take care of himself well. They needed his constant concern.

Er Mao felt deep responsibility.

Overcome with boredom, Er Mao stared lazily at Mistress dancing. It could not understand her. What was the use of these actions that held zero combat power? If the fans of Xia Ling were to know, they would surely shed tears and riot against Er Mao, for this celestial being was able to watch Goddess Ling practice dancing in such close proximity! But it found her dancing boring instead?!

Xia Ling spun and spun.

Er Mao was about to fall asleep.

Just when it was contemplating whether he should head outside to find the cute Young Master Shaohui to play with, Li Lei entered the room.

He wore a casual white shirt that contrasted against his bronze skin and made him look clean and handsome. He headed toward Xiao Ling and spoke, his doting voice carrying a hint of reproach, “Why are you practicing now? Xiao Ling, you just removed your plaster not long ago. You’re not taking good care of your own body. Be careful not to injure yourself.”

She stopped spinning and turned back to smile at him. “It’s okay, don’t worry. I’ve been practicing dance my whole life, how could I not know my own limits? Besides, suitable exercise can help me recover quicker.”

He glanced at the wheelchair that she had abandoned at the corner of the practice room and shook his head helplessly. “You… Sigh.” Then, he turned back and said to the leopard by the window sternly, “Xiao Ling’s fooling around, and you’re fooling around with her too? Why are you lazing around looking at a beauty? If you find out that she’s not taking care of her own body the next time, you have to tell me immediately, understand?”

The leopard yawned loudly and ignored him.

Xia Ling laughed and asked, “You’ve settled all your business today?”

Li Lei wrapped his hand around her soft and gentle waist. He planted a kiss on her forehead. “Yes. I’ll cook salmon for you for dinner, okay?” Before she could speak, Er Mao lifted his tail joyfully.

Xia Ling laughed, eyeing Er Mao. “Sure.”

She continued to ask, “Su Tang is going to X Prison tomorrow?”

He nodded, yet did not tell her about him bringing Li Rui secretly to find Su Tang. He only said, “X Prison’s security is extremely strict. Even though it has captured the most vicious and wicked criminals, not one of them has managed to escape it for more than 200 years. A second Li Feng will not repeat itself, don’t worry.”

She nodded and was reassured.

She was slightly emotional thinking about it. The elegant and prideful woman that she had met for the first time had landed in today’s state. She exchanged some sweet affectionate words with Li Lei for a while before heading to the bathroom to take a bath. She changed out of her sweat-drenched dance clothes and dialed her brother’s number. She told him about the family’s situation and also told him about how Li Lei had dealt with Su Tang.

Xia Moyan murmured, “X Prison…”

“What’s wrong, brother?”

“Nothing much.” Xia Moyan’s voice was light. “It’s a good idea.”

He hung up, changed into a clean white gown, and took his magical instrument. He said to Xia Family Head, “Father, I’m going out.”

The old man was playing chess with the family’s silver fox. Hearing Xia Moyan, he waved his hand dismissively. “Go, this punk of a son doesn’t want to play chess with me, and rather thinks about murdering for money from morning to night.”

The veins on Xia Moyan’s forehead jumped—what did he mean murdering for money?

“I’m helping sister deal with her love rival.” He gritted his teeth.

“Your sister has that punk from the Li family to protect her, what kind of interest are you mixing in blindly?” Xia Family Head was plaintive. That punk from the Li family was not a good man. When he had been chasing his precious daughter, he had said all kinds of stuff to suck up to him, and had even played chess with him solicitously… But what about now? Once he had obtained his precious daughter, he didn’t even bother coming to play chess anymore!

Xia Moyan felt that his own cultivation was really of top quality. Even in this situation, he had not cast a disdainful glare in his father’s direction. Was the old man’s chess more important, or was his own sister’s future happiness more important?! That Li family’s punk handled things too inefficiently. Did he really think that everything would be okay after sending Su Tang to X Prison? In that place, even though ninety-nine percent of the people there lived tragically, there was still a very small possibility of being recognized as the king of the prison. They would be able to control the forces of nature and wield absolute power. They would be able to enjoy living inside more so than they had in the outside world. He was not going to allow his sister’s love rival to be so lucky.

Ignoring the old man, The Preceptor carried his instruments and headed out.

X Prison.

Overwhelmed by this unexpected visit by The Preceptor, the warden allowed Xia Moyan to enter. He served his tea and offered his seat to him. With profound respect and humility, he said, “Pre… Preceptor! What brought you here? Whatever orders you have, I will do it!”

Xia Moyan said, “You have a new criminal coming tomorrow called Su Tang, right?”

“Yes, yes!” The warden was prepared to say he knew without reservation. “I heard that she has committed an unforgivable crime against the Li family… Oh, that’s your sister’s side of the family…” The warden seemed to understand something. He lowered his voice and said, “Don’t worry, Sir. I know how to deal with her. I will make sure that she enjoys the ‘top quality’ treatment! You and Madam Li do not need to worry!”

Xia Moyan’s light eyes carried satisfaction.

“Hand me her prison suit,” he said.

The warden did not know what he was intending to do, but he still handed him the prison suit that had been prepared for Su Tang.

Xia Moyan carried the suit into a cleanroom along with his magical instruments. One night passed, and he walked out with the suit and handed it to the warden. He ordered. “You must make her wear this suit. Remember.”

“Yes! Yes!” The warden promised.

Xia Moyan handed him another object. “I’ve performed a little magic on the prison suit. It has disrupted the luck balance in the prison. This amulet will protect you. It will absorb the extra good luck that has flowed out after being broken by my magic. It will ensure you live a life of fortune.”

The warden received the amulet ecstatically. He was beyond grateful and repeated his thanks incessantly. He would have even kotowed to Xia Moyan. He knew that cooperating with The Preceptor would bring benefits to him! Casually making an insignificant prisoner wear a set of clothes could actually exchange for something this great. It was extremely worth it!
