Chapter Ten: Mu Fu, Space Opens

  After nearly ten days of traveling, Mu Ge finally arrived at the capital of Qin State - Luodu with Mu Xiong.

  There were less than ten horses entering the city. The first to lead the way were Mu Xiongs two personal guards. The grandfather and grandson each rode a horse, walking in the middle of the team.

  The troops went to look for Mu Qings song and returned to the big camp before they came back.

  Rui Wang Qin Jinhao also left early, just before entering the city. He only left a sentence saying that he would visit Mu Qingge again another day and prepare some small gifts to calm her down.

  Thus, the team of nearly a thousand people was left with only Muxiong and his grandson Mu Qingge, as well as eight members of the Mu Manor Imperial Guard.

  Entering Lodo, Mugen felt the scale of this otherworldly city for the first time.

  In these days of traveling to Ludu, Mu Ge had come to realize that the Qin state she was in was just one of many countries on the continent of Lin Chuan. Moreover, it was a third-rate country with the lowest ranking.

  Not to mention that there are more than two or three countries that are also third-rate, just thinking about the fact that above the third-rate there is a second-rate and above the second-rate there is a first-rate, one can imagine that being the emperor of Qin is not very comfortable.

  The ranking of nations is based on the number of high-ranking Purple Mirror holders and the overall national strength. The higher the rank, the stronger the power, and the better the resources that can be enjoyed.

  To put it bluntly, a third-rate country would have at most one or two Purple Mirror experts, while a second-rate country would have around ten. As for the Zhongchuan continent, the only first-rate empire, the Sacred Yuan Empire, the number of Purple Mirror experts is unknown to anyone outside, but outsiders estimate that there are at least no less than a hundred people.

  The lifespan of a Zǐ Jìng high master can reach up to a thousand years, and the longer they live, the stronger their power becomes.

  It is said that a master of the Purple Mirror can destroy a small city with a single strike.

  Its no wonder that even a seasoned veteran like Mu Xiong would show such humility and reverence when faced with the imperial carriage of the Holy Emperor of the Sacred Yuan Empire.

  Strength! No matter what world you survive in, its still about strength!

  Silently, Mu Ge clenched her own fist.

  "Song, after you get home, take a good rest first. Well talk about other things when youre feeling better." Mu Xiongs voice came over, interrupting Mu Ges thoughts.

  She turned her gaze to look at her grandfather who was walking alongside her and nodded silently.

  She indeed needs time to make this world clearer. As for He Cheng being tied up in the Mu Mansion... Mu Xiong wasnt anxious, Qin Jinghao wasnt anxious, and she wouldnt be anxious either.

  Mo Ges mouth flashed a strange smile, and his gaze fell back on this Qin country capital.

  Yes, the street is very wide. The city wall is high, with shops standing in great numbers, and the sound of peoples voices rising like thunder, extremely lively, indeed having the majestic and powerful atmosphere of a capital city.

  But why were there eyes full of avoidance and fear around her?

  Her calm and serene gaze swept lightly over the people passing by on either side, Mu Ge furrowed her brow in puzzlement.

  "Master Murong is back!"

  "Heavens! How long has this little overlord been gone from Luodu? I havent even had a good day yet, how did he come back?"

  "Shh, keep your voice down! Dont you want to live a long life?"

  "Right! If this devil hears it, being skinned alive would be a light punishment."

  The terrified and disgusted gaze fell on Mu Ge, making her feel uneasy all over. She glanced at Mu Xiong beside her, whose face was indeed very bad.

  She pouted, and Mu Ge thought to herself: Earlier those nonsensical words she could all hear, how could Mu Xiong, as a Blue Boundary expert, not hear them?

  His gaze left Mu Xiongs body and fell on Mu Qing Ge who was closely following beside him, the meaning in his eyes was self-evident.

  "I just handled a few people who dared to be disrespectful to Mu Fu on the street a few times." Mu Qing Ge explained lightly.

  Mo Ge shifted his gaze away, too lazy to ask again.

  Luoyang is the capital of Qin State. It was planned in the form of a city within a city.

  It is divided into Outer City, Inner City and Imperial City.

  In short, the outer city is where ordinary people live and do business. The inner city is where officials reside. And the imperial city, of course, belongs to the royal family.

  In the imperial city, there is also an imperial palace. Its the emperors old nest.

  The Mu residence, although granted the title of Yongning Duke, was not a member of the imperial family after all, so they could only live in the inner city. However, the location of the Mu residence was very close to the imperial city and was the best area within the inner city. The land it occupied was also vast, according to Mu Qings words, she had grown up there but never finished exploring the entire Mu residence.

  Of course, Muge can also be understood as, Mu Ges ambition is not to wander around the Mu Mansion, but to make a name for himself outside.

  In short, Mu Fu is very big!

  "Ordered to build the hereditary Yongning Dukes Mansion..." Standing under the layered stairs, he saw the horse under the monument. Muge raised his chin and looked up at the majestic and solemn gate.

  The eaves are over ten feet high, with red pillars standing upright, black lacquer and copper nails, beast head door rings. On either side of the main gate, there are also side gates. On the seven-layered platform, various carved images of fierce beasts stand, majestic and powerful, solemn and silent.

  Standing in front of the gate, Mu Ge seemed to feel the sound of war drums and charging horns, her hot blood surging out of control. She had once been a soldier, and now the Mu estate was also a military family, she seemed to have found a resonance between herself and the Mu estate.

  Above the gate, three door plaques are hung.

  The topmost one was written in vermilion and gold, with the words that Muge had murmured earlier.

  Imperial construction, built by imperial order, this is an honor that countless people want but cannot get.

  The royal gift represents the Mu familys honorable status among the major families in Luodu.

  The second block, with a black lacquer board and vermilion ink, reads "Protector of the Nation, General Jinwus Mansion". The few words have a sharp and fierce atmosphere, as if they let people see the iron-blooded battlefield.

  The last one is really low-key compared to the first two. Its an ordinary material door sign with the words "Mu Fu" engraved on it.

  "Come on in, wont you forget the way home after being away for a few days?" Mu Xiong saw that Mu Ges body didnt move, so he patted her shoulder and urged her to enter the mansion.

  ……

  Chi Yun Garden

  In the Mu Manor, the scenery is the most beautiful and the environment is quiet. This is the private courtyard belonging to the young master of the Mu Manor, Mu Qing Ge.

  The Mu family has few people, and they are also from a military background. Therefore, there is no strict distinction between the inner and outer courts. Except for the main members of the Mu family living in their own courtyards, most of the courtyards are in a state of long-term closure.

  However, Mu Qingges external identity is a man after all, so her residence in Chi Yunyuan and the place where the women of the mansion live are far apart. It can be said that if it werent for deliberately looking for each other, she would find it very difficult to meet with the women of the mansion in Mu Mansion.

  Furthermore, Mu Qingges sensitivity to her own gender and personality meant that she had very few maids and servants in the courtyard. Only two personal maids attended to her daily needs: Yuhe, gentle as water, and Huayue, lively and charming.

  These two maidservants, who were about the same age as Mu Qingsong, would take care of her every day and never stay overnight in Mu Qingsongs room. This was also what Mu Qingsong had requested.

  This saved Mu Ge a lot of trouble.

  Apart from these two, Mu Qingge also had a young servant who accompanied her to read books. However, as a spoiled daughter of a wealthy family, she was not interested in poetry and had sent the servant, named Mo Yang, to school in her place.

  Youhao and Huayue are no strangers to Muges light songs. But Muge is unfamiliar with them.

  With Mu Qings help, she quickly sent the two away and locked herself in her room, claiming she needed to rest and not be disturbed. In reality, however, she sat cross-legged on her bed and entered a meditative state.

  In her past life, apart from her ruthless and cunning assassination techniques, she relied on her dual-system superpowers. Cultivating superpowers and enhancing them depended on meditation to increase spiritual power.

  At this moment, she finally calmed down and had time to take a good look at what was left in her space.

  That man-made explosion not only reduced her to dust, but also killed the person who harmed her just as cleanly. Probably, that person didnt even think until his death that she would be ruthless to such an extent, dragging him into hell together with her.

  Even now, Mu Ge could still see that persons last shocked and fearful gaze whenever she closed her eyes.

  At that time, amidst the explosion, Mu Ge seemed to feel that his space had been affected by the ripples, perhaps it was related to the collapse of his spiritual power.

  After rebirth, she found that the Lei systems superpower was still there, and space also existed as usual, so she had hope in her heart.

  On that day, she refused his proposal not only because of her pride but also because of her space. She clearly remembered what her last mission was to steal. And in the first place, where did she put the treasure that made every country eager to get it?

  Ah!

  A faint, soft sound echoed in Mugs mind.

  A familiar feeling made her heart burst out with excitement: Its open!
