The Silly Alchemist

Mo Lin’s face darkened. He had been very excited to have fun with these people but he realised these people were targeting him on purpose.

Why would he think this now? The plates Ye Lang punched were all flying at him, even their broken pieces and powder were all directed at him.

With his built, it would be easy for him to dodge these “attacks”. However, he got hit by an unexpected plate flying in his direction as he was too immersed in watching the fight.

The contents of the plate were flying out. There was no time for him to dodge. In a second, he turned from a prince to a chicken getting prepared for soup*, drenched in actual soup...

[Note: Chinese idiom for describing someone that is soaking wet]

“Stop!!” Mo Lin roared, slamming the table.

“Ignore him!” Li Yue said in an aloof manner, continuing her movements.

“Who cares?!” Ye Lang said with equal aloofness, also continuing his movements.

“......”

Li Yue was soon out of items to throw, Ye Lang wanted to celebrate it at that moment. The bystanders thought they were nearly finished and Mo Lin thought that this would be his chance to speak.

However, Li Yue stood up with her hands around the corners of her end of the table. With one swift motion......

She flung the table!

“Fuck, did you really need to throw the table?! Very unladylike of you!” Ye Lang shouted as he pushed the table aside with one hand.

“Ugh......”

Mo Lin’s voice rung in the room. He was stuck under the table Ye Lang had flung.

How pitiful!!

“What happened to him?” Ye Lang asked dully.

“Not sure, maybe the weather’s too cold for him......” Li Yue said without much thought.

Such a lame joke. Even if the weather was too cold, would anyone use a table as a blanket?

“Is it cold? Whatever, maybe he fooled around too much and his body became weak. Leave him, let’s go back and rest. We’ll leave early tomorrow,” Ye Lang looked at Mo Lin with disgust and prepared to leave with Li Yue.

“Sure thing,” Li Yue nodded.

How, how did these two make up so easily? That’s a drastic turn of events. Well, they are siblings, fighting among themselves is normal.

“Stop right there. Do you think you can leave after doing that to me? Let me tell you. Li Yue is mine today, or else you two won’t leave this city!!” Mo Lin roared as he pushed off the table and walked towards the duo.

“......”

Ye Lang and Li Yue looked at each other and left the place, completely ignoring Mo Lin. It was true contempt, what they felt towards Mo Lin, they didn’t even bother saying a word to him.

“You... you two......” Mo Lin was about to burst. As long as he lived here, he’d never encountered something like this, no one had ever ignored him so blatantly.

The audience of this spectacle was shocked as they didn’t expect this ending. They thought that Li Yue would give in to Mo Lin and be tortured by that devil.

But now, this young lady not only ignored him, she even flipped a table towards him! How the tables had turned!

Everyone was secretly wondering whether Li Yue was just using Ye Lang to mess around with Mo Lin.

“Bang!”

Mo Lin filled with a sense of revenge rushed towards Ye Lang. He grabbed the dagger hung on his waist, eyes filled with anger......

A burst a light flashed through, leaving everyone wondering what happened. The light came as soon as it went, making them wonder if was just an illusion.

“?!”

Mo Lin felt the pain coming from a wound. He instinctively looked at it only to realise it was red from what looked like blood.

When did my clothes get stained with blood?

At that moment, Mo Lin hadn’t realised what happened but he soon did. The redness expanded quickly, flushing the wound with red.

This, this was my blood from the wound? When did I get hurt?

Then, a sharp pain started to spread from his heart, overwhelming his nerves. He knew then, he was slashed by someone.

“Was it you?” Mo Lin asked blankly, his eyes focused on the dagger pointed at Li Yue. He noticed the few drops of fresh blood on Li Yue’s sword.

At that moment, he understood, Li Yue had killed him.

“Lose that murderous gaze, I’m a little sensitive towards it now, sorry!” Li Yue said casually as if she was talking about something unrelated to her.

With the stupid wolf battalion chasing after them, Li Yue sensitivity towards people’s gaze was at its peak and her habit of attacking first maintained. As long as anyone looked at her or Ye Lang with that gaze, she wouldn’t hesitate to kill them.

“Nevermind, you’ll be down there with me soon, haha......”

Mo Lin had no other thoughts during his final moments. No hatred, no anger, he only smiled. He felt that Li Yue would die soon because that was the price she had to pay for killing him, as he was ......

“Sorry, she won’t be there with you, she’ll live a long life. Get her in your next life.” Ye Lang said with a smile.

“You’ll be gone too, I’ll be waiting for you!!” Mo Lin smiled devilishly as he looked at Ye Lang.

“In a few hundred years......” Ye Lang said as he shrugged.

“What are they saying?”

The onlookers didn’t understand what they heard. They didn’t know that Mo Lin who was in front of them was dying and these were his last words.

“I am Mo Lin, my father is......”

”

“Your father is Mo Jie, I get it. You don’t have to tell me again, just go.”

“.....”

Thud.

Everyone was shocked and looked towards Ye Lang...

Mo Lin fell to the ground. Blood started to seep out from his body. At that moment, everyone finally realised what had happened.

This was huge!!

“Run, Mo Lin is dead!!”

In a flash, everyone left the hotel. Those with quicker reactions had already taken their things and scrammed. They didn’t want to get into trouble if someone found out that they were there when Mo Lin died.

Quickly, the Moon Hotel was empty, left only with those that didn’t know who Mo Lin was.
