On the outskirts of Luo Du City, a lean figure was shrouded in a black cloak, moving stealthily through the dark night by the light of starry candles. Under the fluttering cloak, a faint red flame could be seen flickering.

  Its likely that even Mu Xiong wouldnt have guessed that his own mansion had a secret passage leading out of the city, and the entrance to this passage was actually in Mu Qing Ges room.

  According to Muxing Ges confession, this secret passage was built by her powerful and far-reaching master in secret, just to make it convenient for her, a useless person, to respond to his summons at any time.

  The outskirts of Luo Du are a vast mountain range, with a continuous body that appears particularly ferocious in the darkness.

  The singer held a lantern to light the way, and the sound of Muges gentle singing guided him along the road.

  The orange-red flames set off Mugs exquisite and delicate small face, making it difficult to discern the color of her eyes.

  "I didnt intentionally hide it from you. I just didnt think he would find me so quickly." Mu Qingge said, pursing her lips. But in her voice, it wasnt hard to detect a hint of fear.

  But Mu Ge ignored her.

  Each time she thought she had made herself clear, but unexpectedly, reality would always give her a surprise.

  Muges indifference to Mugeqian made the latters eyes even more guilty. Watching Muge walk away step by step, towards that terrifying valley, Mugeqian gritted her teeth and instantly floated in front of Muge, blocking her path.

  "Dont go!" Mu Qing Ge stopped him.

  Mo Ge raised her eyes and looked at her, with no ripples in her clear and transparent eyes.

  She skirted around Mu Qings song and prepared to continue on her way.

  "Dont go!" Mu Qing Ge blocked her way again, even opening his arms wide. Her subconscious actions had forgotten that she was a spiritual body and couldnt stop Mu Ges movements at all. If Mu Ge was willing, he could even pass directly through her body to leave.

  Mo Ge stopped again, slowly raised his eyes, and those clear and cold eyes that made peoples hearts chill, stared straight at her.

  Her eyes flashed with a hint of determination as she said quickly, "Now that you can cultivate, theres no need to seek out those heretical paths. Lets return to the manor."

  There was a hint of urgency in her voice.

  It seems that if Mu Ge doesnt come back, something terrible will happen in general.

  However, her urgency did not infect Mu Ge. The latter couldnt help but sneer after listening to her, with sarcasm filling his eyes: "Mu Qing Ge, now I am the one who is truly Mu Qing Ge. Cleaning up these messes for you was not my wish, but I have no choice. So from now on, its best if you shut your mouth."

  Mo Qings pale face seemed even paler, and her lips, which had originally still held a hint of faint redness, turned grayish white.

  "Lead the way." Mu Ge said coldly.

  Mu Qings eyes flashed with a struggling expression, and after looking at Mu Ge for a few moments, he begged again: "If something happens to you, what will Grandfather and Aunt do?"

  Mo Ges eyes ridiculed even more, with a smile that was not quite a smile: "At this time, you use these people to block me? Did you think of them when you were doing these things? Ive only known them for a few days, do you think I care about what happens to them?"

  "Do you think I wanted it this way?!" Mu Qing Ge suddenly burst out.

  Her face was contorted in agony, her hands clutching her head tightly, her fingers digging into her hair. "I dont want to either, but what can I do? Im a useless person, a waste! The eldest grandson of the Mu family, Mu Xiongs only son, and yet Im unable to cultivate. Not only can I not bring glory to the Mu family, but I also have to rely on them for protection. Im just a waste! How could you possibly understand my feelings? When I was at my most desperate and angry, someone said they could change my physique - how could I not be moved? And whats there to stop me from taking a risk? Even if I knew that person had ulterior motives, even if I knew the truth might not be as they claimed... but as long as theres a glimmer of hope, I wont let it go."

  Mo Ge looked at Mo Qings emotional outburst, remaining silent.

  This was the first time, Mu Qing Ge revealed such a helpless and painful look in front of her. All along, she seemed to be nonchalant, only revealing a hint of emotional fluctuation when seeing people close to her.

  But at this time...

  Perhaps, as Mu Qing Ge said, she couldnt feel that kind of emotion.

  On this continent, everyone can cultivate, but she is the only exception. If she were just an ordinary person, it would be fine, but she has a prominent yet sensitive background.

  She was suppressed for too long, carrying too many secrets, and her heart always wanted to become stronger, to grasp and change her own destiny. Unfortunately, in the end, she still became a lonely soul.

  Apart from himself, no one knew that the real Mu Qing had already died, and there wasnt even a memorial tablet.

  Mù Gēs eyes flickered slightly, and her cold voice softened a bit: "Mù Qīng Gē, you need to understand that this matter cant be resolved by escaping." Tonight, even if she didnt go to the appointment, what about tomorrow? If she provoked the strange person in Mù Qīng Gēs mouth, with that persons ability to appear and disappear at will, since they could quietly build a secret passage in the Mù estate, taking the head of someone from the Mù estate would be no difficult task.

  Mo Qings lower lip trembled slightly, and his eyes were filled with panic.

  Perhaps at the moment she made her desperate move, she could hardly have guessed that her fate would turn out as it has today.

  "We can go find Grandpa..."

  "You got yourself into trouble, and then you go find an elder to clean up after you. Mu Qing Ge, you really are a complete waste." Mu Ges cold voice directly cut off Mu Qing Ges dazed muttering.

  Mochizukis transparent body began to tremble, as if all her strength had been drained away.

  "The old man said, Why havent you arrived yet? It turned out that he was being held back by the goblins in the forest. Good disciple, wait for me to help you capture this ghost."

  Suddenly, a gloomy and sharp voice came from above.

  Before Mu Ge could react, Mu Qings soul suddenly flew into the air and turned into a wisp of blue smoke, which was then captured by someone.

  Mo Ges eyes suddenly narrowed, and as soon as she took a step forward, she felt her entire body plunge into an icy abyss, stiffening to the point where she couldnt move.

  "Whats going on?!" Mu Ge stood still, unable to move, with only a pair of clear and piercing eyes that could slightly turn.

  She tried hard to mobilize the spiritual energy within her body, but found that the originally controllable Huang Jing Dian Fengs spiritual energy was as heavy as iron and couldnt be mobilized at all.

  She even thought of her own abilities, but also found that her thunder and space abilities seemed to have disappeared.

  I have become like a wooden puppet with nothing but thoughts.

  "Its all right!" Mu Ges heart skipped a beat.

  She had dual-system heterochromia and possessed a terrifying cultivation speed, becoming a top-notch expert at the peak of the Yellow Boundary in just one night. This made her somewhat arrogant, thinking that with her own trump card, she could resolve this trouble easily. However, before she even saw the person, she was already caught off guard.

  The worst thing is that even Mu Qings soul has been lost.

  Suddenly, she thought of a thrilling fact.

  That person can actually see Mu Qing and easily took her away!

  Tick-tock——tick-tock——

  The footsteps sounded as if they were treading on thin ice, awakening Mu Ges whole body of vigilance.

  She stared intently in the direction of the sound, and saw a hunched figure slowly emerging, its entire body wrapped in black robes. Silver-white long hair fell from the brim of the hat to the ground.

  His appearance made the temperature in the forest a few degrees lower.

  Mo Ge felt an unprecedented sense of oppression wash over him.

  Awesome! So awesome!

  This is the fifth person to make Mu Ge feel strong since her rebirth. And this person, however, can rank second among the five. Apart from that mysterious and unpredictable Holy King, the cold aura emanating from this person in front of her made her feel an unprecedented sense of crisis.

  "Old Man of the North Sea." At this time, Mu Ge had already recognized the identity of the person in her heart.

  Digression

  Nan bamboo said, if you want him to come quickly, then hurry up and collect Wenwen! Hmph~
