"Should we notify the God Emperor in advance?" Xuan Qiang asked.
Mu Qingge raised her eyes to look at her and slowly shook her head.
Li Chao explained, "The third brother has already informed the God Emperor about this matter. However, the God Emperor only instructed us to come and take the third brother back safely. Furthermore, the God Emperor is undoubtedly aware of what this might trigger, and he has instructed us to return to the Huan Yue Domain on our own, which implies that he wants us to handle this matter ourselves."
"Indeed, that is the God Emperor’s intention," Qian Shui nodded in agreement.
Zhuang Shan also said, "We cannot rely on the God Emperor for everything; we must find a way to solve it ourselves."
All four had expressed their stance, leaving Xuan Qiang no choice but to nod in agreement with the group’s decision.
"Third brother, do you have the Qiankun Device of the Mu Clan’s Young Master in your possession?" Li Chao asked.
Mu Qingge nodded. "After killing him, I naturally took the Qiankun Device easily. Even if I claimed I didn’t take it now, I’m afraid no one would believe it."
Indeed, that is the case now.
Since Mu Qingge was the one who killed the person, regardless of whether she took the Qiankun Device, people are convinced that the object coveted by the God Emperor is in her possession.
"Have you checked the contents inside?" Li Chao asked again.
This time, Mu Qingge shook her head.
She had long known that the Fragmented Scripture of the Lower Volume of Divine Strategy belonging to the Wuhua God Emperor was not in Mu Tianyin’s possession. She also knew the two Fragmented Scriptures retrieved by the Mu Clan were in the hands of the Tianluozhe, so she naturally would not check Mu Tianyin’s Qiankun Device.
At that time, after beheading Mu Tianyin, she effortlessly took the Qiankun Device just to avoid suspicion.
If someone found out she killed the person without taking the Qiankun Device, that would be what truly arouses suspicion.
"In that case, why don’t we hand over the Qiankun Device so that it can be detached, sparing the third brother from potential trouble?" Xuan Qiang suggested.
Yet all four shook their heads simultaneously, causing her to frown.
In her mind, less trouble is better than more. Mu Qingge killing the Mu Clan’s Young Master is a great achievement for the Divine Clan, and there’s no reason for her not to claim the credit and instead get entangled in trouble.
"Why?" Xuan Qiang asked, bewildered.
"Because the Purple Light God Emperor will not believe it," Qian Shui said.
Zhuang Shan also spoke, "What the Purple Light God Emperor wants is something from the Mu Clan. What that is, we do not know. Millennia ago, we all knew the status of the Mu Clan. As for the allegations, we won’t comment. But through the attitude of the Purple Light God Emperor, we can speculate that the other three God Emperors of the West Divine Land are likely also eyeing Qingge covetously. As soon as she leaves the Purple Light Domain and it’s proven that the Purple Light God Emperor doesn’t have the item, Qingge’s troubles will come one after another."
His words reflected the concerns of everyone.
Mu Qingge pressed her lips into silence.
The follow-up to this matter somewhat exceeded her expectations. She underestimated the West Divine Land’s God Emperors’ desire for the Divine Strategy. Initially, she planned to quickly return to the Huan Yue Domain after escaping. By that time, no one would know whether the item she obtained was given to the Huan Yue God Emperor, intending to use the Huan Yue God Emperor’s name to intimidate those with ulterior motives.
Yet she did not expect the Purple Light God Emperor to be so eager, immediately demanding the item. Regardless of whether she admitted it, he was convinced the item was on her.
