"It's time to go to the tomb," Ciel said to Mu Yixue and the others.
The former nodded, but she said, "Ciel, if you can, you should ask those two madams to close all Teleportation Formations so that news of Bernard's death doesn't spread out. Honestly, there is still a possibility of danger if the Thunder God finds out."
Ciel agreed with her suggestion as it made a lot of sense. However, before he could do anything about it, a tremor suddenly occurred in the city center.
After that, Madam Maya's voice echoed in the city.
"For the time being, this continent will be closed first," she said, surprising many people.
However, having understood, everyone was silent.
She had enormous authority. Even if her husband didn't really build up power, no one dared to contradict him or his two wives' orders.
And knowing that this was to help the Ice Prince, so no one dared to complain.
Shua La La!
Pegasus finally came, stopping in front of Ciel.
At the same time, Jian Wuxin also returned. She looked at the winged white horse curiously.
Ciel was actually a bit confused now whether it was necessary to take Mu Yixue with him on the horse's back.
It should have been like that, but now he had one additional woman that he didn't think it was suitable to ignore.
"Right, do you have a carriage?" He asked Mu Yixue as he came up with an idea that he thought was better.
The woman nodded, waving her hand, not really thinking about why he wanted a carriage right now. Maybe he wanted to sit while leaning his back.
A carriage then appeared in front of them.
It was made of ice gold, gold with a color similar to ice, looking more luxurious than normal gold.
Ciel calmly signaled to Pegasus to pull the carriage.
After that, he said, "let's ride!"
He looked at Mu Yixue then Jian Wuxin.
The former immediately pouted as she finally realized that Ciel wanted to be with her and Jian Wuxin at the same time.
No wonder this guy wanted a carriage. The reason was not what she had expected.
While Ciel immediately climbed into the carriage, Mu Yixue and Jian Wuxin were still silent.
In the end, there was awkwardness between them, so this was something difficult.
But surprisingly enough, Jian Wuxin suddenly climbed into the carriage first.
This was more surprising to Mu Yixue, even causing her beautiful lips to part.
She was the owner of that carriage while Jian Wuxin was her enemy. Now she dared to precede her.
Not wanting the woman to act up more, Mu Yixue finally climbed into the carriage as well.
The people around who saw that looked at each other strangely, wondering how the Ice Prince made the two women ostensibly submit to him.
Of course, they did not take Bernard's words seriously.
They are too beautiful to be described with profanity.
To them, it's more suitable to be called with romantic words.
The only one who thought it was not romantic was Mei Mei who was sitting on her bear's head. Her eyes were wide open while her face was frozen.
Over time, her breathing even quickened.
"No, no, I have to calm down. They will definitely kill each other someday, leaving the prince only for me," she said in a low voice, trying to comfort herself.
Meanwhile, in the carriage, Mu Yixue sat beside Ciel before Jian Wuxin could sit down.
There were two seats there, each of which could actually be used for four people.
However, under normal circumstances, it would be strange if three people sat on the same seat. One should have sat on a different seat so that they sat facing each other.
Mu Yixue had a hunch that Jian Wuxin had a certain determination to get close to Ciel.
Perhaps it was because she knew that she had no other path, and she had to choose the path where she had to follow Ciel, so she did everything with full resolution so that she could have the highest position or even suppress her in Ciel's group.
People with the heart of a sword always have such thoughts.
Mu Yixue was sure Jian Wuxin would have deliberately sat next to Ciel if she hadn't done it first, which was why she moved quickly.
Only, she quickly discovered an unexpected move from Jian Wuxin.
The woman apparently didn't sit on the opposite side, she actually chose to sit next to Ciel even though she made some distance and stared at the window right after she sat down.
Her expression was calm, seeming like she was pondering.
"What are you doing?" Mu Yixue could not keep quiet because of that.
In her eyes, this was more like a direct challenge.
Even Ciel was astonished.
However, Jian Wuxin did not respond to Mu Yixue's question, nor did she change her expression or glance to the side.
"Hey Miss!" Ciel finally spoke up as well, calling out to her.
And when he did speak, she finally turned her gaze towards him.
"What?" she asked Ciel.
The latter observed her overly calm face, as if there were no ripples at all in her mind.
Because of such an expression, Ciel was also at a loss as to what to say to him.
"My father is a sword and I am also a sword." Surprisingly enough, she said something, something that neither Ciel nor Mu Yixue understood.
"What does that mean?" Ciel asked.
"The best sword is the sharpest sword, the one that can cut through everything with a single slash. For any swordsman, it means doing things with full resolution. I don't like hesitation, since I chose this path, I will do it with an open heart." The woman replied, making Mu Yixue's eyes go extremely cold as this was indeed as she had expected.
On the other hand, Ciel opened his mouth, surprised by her way of thinking.
It also pleased him so much that he smiled.
"I knew it, you're a great woman," he said. "If you become my enemy, you will be a very great enemy. If you were my friend, you'd be a really great friend, and yeah, you've become my woman, and it looks like you're going to be even greater."
After saying that, Ciel placed his hand over the woman's palm.
