The Ghost King’s Wife is Sassy and Beautiful

144 Are They As Beautiful As I Am?

Mo Beiyuan knew that Yun Ran did not play by the rules, but at this moment, he was still stunned by her sudden intimacy.

Because of the parasitic poison, her proximity made all the blood in his body boil. He didn’t want to push her away.

His eyes darkened.

Yun Ran hugged his arm again and shook it. Her small waist was twisted, and her eyes were charming. Her pink lips parted slightly. “Your Highness, you’ve seen demonic cultivator women before. Are they as beautiful as I am?”

Usually, her expression was calm. Now, she deliberately softened her voice with a hint of coquettishness. She raised her eyebrows and smiled. It was even more vivid and her beautiful face was even more dazzling.

“No, demonic cultivators are all extremely ugly.”

Mo Beiyuan told the truth. The rumors outside were all nonsense. How could a true demonic cultivator have her appearance?

Yun Ran seemed to have heard some pleasant words of love and smiled sweetly. “Your Highness, what do you think those people are up to by slandering me as a fiendish cultivator? What good will it do them to let the real murderer get away with it? Don’t tell me they want to protect the real murderer—a fiendish demonic cultivator! Why would they protect a murderer? Don’t tell me they have some shameful relationship with the murderer! Then we have to investigate carefully. It’s too terrifying!”

She clearly had the sweetest smile on her face, but the words that came out of her mouth were not that sweet.

Framing her?

Come on!

Who didn’t know how to spread rumors?

“You demoness, you’re simply spouting nonsense. My son has died tragically. How can I protect a murderous demonic cultivator!”

The one who roared was the old general who had complained to the emperor previously. His only legitimate son had died tragically. When he heard the rumors that Yun Ran was a demonic cultivator, he entered the palace to complain.

Yun Ran’s clear eyes swept over and she asked, “Then did you see with your own eyes that I killed your son?”

The general said sternly, “No, but I know that your spiritual power cultivation is not legitimate. If you didn’t cultivate using the demonic path cultivation method, how can you explain your cultivation?”

Yun Ran did not expect her cultivation method to be the reason for being framed.

She raised the corners of her lips. “What’s wrong? Your talent is poor. Just because you can’t do it, you can’t allow others to have high talent and improve their cultivation by leaps and bounds. You’ve lived for so long, don’t you understand that there’s always someone stronger out there?”

Was his son’s death a reason for him to implicate an innocent person?

“I cultivate spiritual power, not demonic cultivation methods! Whether I have demonic energy on me or not, we’ll know once we test it. However, you insisted that I cultivate demonic cultivation methods and am a demonic cultivator before verifying it. What’s the meaning of you wanting to avenge your son? Do you want to kill me for no reason?”

“Do you really plan to avenge your son, or do you just want to deal with me?”

In fact, when she was in the Yuan Mansion, Thunderbolt had already told her that this general whose son had died was the Emperor’s trusted aide. He did not get along with Mo Beiyuan.

Therefore, this was probably a show deliberately set up by the wretched emperor.

As for the motive, Yun Ran could roughly guess it. If she was a demonic cultivator, then Mo Beiyuan would definitely be implicated. Even if he was not punished, his reputation would be greatly affected. Moreover, there were two children. With a demonic cultivator mother, it would probably be very difficult for them to survive in the five countries in the future.

The emperor was clearly targeting her, but in fact, he was ultimately targeting Mo Beiyuan.
