"Whoever hurts her, I will kill them!"
These simple six words stunned nearly a hundred thousand people of the Sang Clan, leaving them standing speechless.
They were shocked by the ancient giant python swirling in the air, protecting the floating execution platform. Shocked by this suddenly appearing ’man’, who spoke to their entire clan with such cold and domineering aura!
The translucent silver spear in his hand exuded a bone-chilling coldness, a sharpness they knew only a Divine Artifact, and a top-grade one at that, could possess!
Who is he?
Why is he here?
Among the tens of thousands, only three people, besides those on the execution platform, knew Mu Qingge’s identity. Her appearance caused King Sang Shun’s eyes to redden.
It was not from emotion, but because Mu Qingge’s appearance made him realize his daughter wouldn’t have to die.
"Mu Qingge, how bold of you! Not only did you trespass on our clan’s land, but you dare act so arrogantly! How many guts do you have to challenge our Sang Clan?" The Second Elder pointed at Mu Qingge, shouting angrily.
Mu Qingge replied with a cold smile, mocking teasingly, "Is the Second Elder planning to personally find out whether I dare or not?"
"You!" The Second Elder was choked by her words, unable to respond.
"Mu Qingge? Who is that?"
"Look at him, young yet with such strong presence."
"Indeed! Daring to challenge our Sang Clan, does he think our clan lacks people?"
"Whoever he is, if he dares to cause trouble in our clan, he’s our enemy, rush in and kill him!"
"Yes! Kill him! To set an example!"
Among the crowd, some young disciples of the Sang Clan, unable to tolerate Mu Qingge’s provocative stance, egged each other on and rushed forward in a hot-blooded surge.
Bai Xi’s vertical pupils turned cold, and he let out a piercing screech.
The sound churned their blood and energy. The young men rushing towards the execution platform were caught by a strange force, lifted into the air, and flew towards Bai Xi’s open mouth.
"Ah——!"
"Help——! Ah——!"
"Don’t eat me——!"
Immediately, cries of terror arose.
King Sang Shun hurriedly shouted, "Stop this instant!" He couldn’t let Mu Qingge truly cause any deaths, or today’s outcome would be unpredictable.
However, would Bai Xi listen to him?
She still pulled those young disciples into the air, and those on the ground who tried to rescue them were also caught up, sucked into the air, beyond their control.
Instantly, thousands of people from the Sang Clan flailed helplessly in the sky.
"Child, make her stop!" King Sang Shun looked at Mu Qingge, knowing only she could stop this mighty python.
However, Mu Qingge’s clear eyes were full of indifference. The image of Sang Lanruo, covered in blood, couldn’t fade from her mind.
If she had been a moment later, Sang Lanruo would have truly died.
She might not want to owe this personal debt, but she now owed it!
"Senior Brother Mei, go check on her, make sure she doesn’t die." Mu Qingge ignored King Sang Shun’s words, only instructing Mei Zizhong beside her.
Mei Zizhong nodded lightly, turned, and walked towards Sang Lanruo.
At this time, Sang Lanruo had already been taken down from the pillar by Xuewu and her brother, sitting on the ground. In just this short time, the ground beneath her was soaked with her blood.
"How dare you——!"
A loud shout echoed from the horizon.
This shout shattered Bai Xi’s power, rescuing the Sang Clan people from Bai Xi’s jaws.
The Sang Clan people, screaming, fell from the sky, creating chaos on the ground. At this moment, six phantom shadows appeared out of thin air, surrounding Bai Xi and enclosing Mu Qingge and her group.
"It’s the Supreme Elders!"
Someone in the chaotic crowd recognized the six figures.
The six bodies gradually solidified, allowing more people to recognize their identities.
"Supreme Elders!"
"Greetings, Supreme Elders!"
The Sang Clan people knelt down, bowing to the six in the sky.
"Supreme Elders!" King Sang Shun uttered in shock. He didn’t expect this incident to alarm the Supreme Elders, or rather, he had underestimated Mu Qingge’s strength.
He hadn’t anticipated that Mu Qingge would have such a powerful spirit beast beside her.
"Sang Clan’s current Clan Leader, King Sang Shun, greets the Supreme Elders!" King Sang Shun suppressed his shock and also knelt down. Even though he was the Clan Leader, he had to perform the kneeling ritual in front of the Supreme Elders.
"Clan Leader, please rise. The rest of you may also stand." One of them spoke to the clan members, then looked cautiously at Bai Xi.
The one who first recognized Bai Xi’s identity spoke, "Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python, our Sang Clan has no enmity with you. Why do you cause trouble in our clan? If it’s a misunderstanding, please calm your anger, let’s discuss it peacefully."
The Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python is an Ancient Holy Beast, with numerous methods, not easy to kill. Most importantly, it cannot be killed, holding a grudge would result in endless pursuit.
"Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python!"
"What is the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python? From the Supreme Elders’ expressions, it seems formidable."
"Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python! It’s actually the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python!" The Third Elder exclaimed.
King Sang Shun was also astounded.
He looked incredulously at the cold and proud Mu Qingge, wondering how much more surprise this granddaughter of his would bring him? To even subdue the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python!
"Your Sang Clan offended not me, but my master." Bai Xi spoke, her voice as soft as a baby’s yet carrying an edge of mockery and chilliness.
This voice, so incongruent with her appearance, drew chuckles from some clueless disciples in the Sang Clan.
Bai Xi’s vertical pupils turned cold, and the Supreme Elder of the Sang Clan immediately turned and shouted at the source of the laughter, "Do not be impudent!"
This shout made the laughter instantly vanish.
"Why is he here? And for Sang Xuewu’s sake?" In the crowd, Sang Zilan recognized Mu Qingge’s appearance, her brow filled with jealousy.
She envied why Sang Xuewu could garner everyone’s protection, not just from the family but even outsiders would lay at her feet.
Unaware of the prior events, even Sang Lanruo’s sudden execution was partially unclear to her.
With Mu Qingge’s sudden appearance, alongside Sang Xuewu’s relationship with Sang Lanruo, it led her to speculate.
Speaking to the clan members, the Supreme Elder instructed Bai Xi, "Please calm your anger. Do not hold a grudge against these juniors. If there’s anything wrong, let us resolve it in conversation."
Bai Xi, an Ancient Holy Beast and master of Magic Formulas, would not be easy to kill. Most importantly, the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python, with its myriad means, was nearly impossible to defeat.
Bai Xi spoke disdainfully, "My master is the one you’ve offended, not me." Her voice, unusual for her appearance, made some clueless disciples chuckle softly.
"How could she come here? Is she doing all this for Sang Xuewu?" Sang Zilan envied, not understanding why Sang Xuewu could receive the love and protection of everyone.
Mu Qingge lifted her gaze and looked at the Supreme Elder. Her lips were tight, and her face was chilling and ruthless.
She was determined to repay Sang Lanruo.
However, now is not the time for detailed inquiries.
She is also assessing the combat power.
Her trump cards include only a beast equivalent to the Golden Realm Sixth Layer’s strength, and Yuanyuan. It’s obviously impossible to face these people head-on.
With a deepened gaze, Mu Qingge did not reply to the Supreme Elder who inquired but instead called out softly, "Bai Xi."
Bai Xi turned her eyes to look at her, and suddenly a white light flashed over her body. The Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python transformed into a graceful, alluring woman in white, descending gracefully from the sky to stand by Mu Qingge’s side.
This scene stunned many members of the Sang Clan.
They never expected such a fierce gigantic python to transform into such a beautiful woman.
In this way, it also answered the question of the Sang Clan’s Supreme Elder. Mu Qingge was Bai Xi’s master, the master of the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python!
"Ge’er, you should go quickly, don’t worry about me." From behind, came the weak yet urgent voice of Sang Lanruo.
Mu Qingge seemed unable to hear, as if she didn’t hear what was said.
The Supreme Elders of the Sang Clan were all scrutinizing Mu Qingge and those around her. Although they did not show it, they were secretly shocked.
So young, and with such extraordinary demeanor, not only able to subdue the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python and become her master, but also having Golden Realm experts for protection, who exactly is he?
The most important thing is, they’ve lived so long yet never heard of the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python having a master before!
’What relationship does this person have with my Sang family?’
This was the question that simultaneously arose in the minds of the six Supreme Elders.
"Young master, what grudge does our Sang family hold against you? You come to our Sang clan territory and cause such a commotion; if there isn’t a reasonable reason, I’m afraid it will be difficult to leave today." A Supreme Elder spoke up.
Although they couldn’t guess the power behind Mu Qingge, it didn’t mean the Sang family would concede on dignity.
"Supreme Elder, they have come for Lanruo." Suddenly, the Second Elder of the Sang family spoke, revealing the purpose of Mu Qingge’s presence here.
"Oh?"
"I remember Lanruo is the name of the family head’s child, right?"
Suddenly, a Supreme Elder spoke up.
It was only then that they looked at Sang Lanruo on the execution platform, covered in blood. Sang Lanruo was once the hope of the Sang Clan, and being the clan leader’s daughter, she had been seen by several Supreme Elders before.
Though they hadn’t seen her for many years, they recognized her at first glance.
"What did Lanruo do wrong?" One of the Supreme Elders asked.
"She privately taught the Sang Clan’s Artifact Refining Technique to this intruder. Though the act failed, it still violated the clan rules," the Second Elder quickly replied.
"What? Privately teaching the Sang Clan’s Artifact Refining Technique?"
"Such audacity!"
The aura of the six Supreme Elders immediately changed, an overwhelming pressure rolling towards the execution platform.
Mu Qingge frowned slightly, her Linglong Spear thrusting onto the execution platform, and her aura spread from the spear, expanding outward as if to resist the crushing pressure from the opposing side.
However, with her strength alone, she couldn’t withstand it.
Thus, she secretly added the Power of Void from the Eight Desolations Void Flame.
Invisible flames arose around her, silently burning away the oppressive pressures.
"Hmm?"
Facing such intense pressure, Mu Qingge remained composed, causing the Sang Clan’s Supreme Elders to furrow their brows in astonishment.
"Supreme Elders, please calm your anger, there are other reasons for this matter." King Sang Shun timely spoke to intervene.
King Sang Shun was the clan leader; his words couldn’t be ignored. Bringing the Supreme Elders out of their shock, they retracted their aura, though they felt an increased curiosity about Mu Qingge.
As they withdrew their aura, Mu Qingge also felt a sense of relief. If this continued, even with the Eight Desolations Void Flame working in secret, she might not have been able to hold on.
"Speak, what exactly is going on?" One of the Supreme Elders asked.
King Sang Shun said gravely, "Her name is Mu Qingge, Lanruo’s child who drifted away. Lanruo was momentarily confused, forgetting the family rules and wanting to pass on the Artifact Refining Technique to him."
"Clan, this Mu gentleman does not acknowledge our Sang family." The Second Elder added another sentence.
"Shut your mouth!" King Sang Shun sternly rebuked.
The Third Elder also held the Second Elder back, "Second brother, please stop talking now."
"Is she truly our Sang Clan’s blood?"
This news shocked thousands of Sang clansmen and the six Supreme Elders.
As for Mu Qingge, she remained silent to King Sang Shun’s words, appearing as if she acknowledged it. She stared at King Sang Shun and could see from his attitude that he did not want Sang Lanruo to die, though she was unsure what scheme was brewing in his mind.
"He turned out to be Sang Xuewu’s brother!" Sang Zilan exclaimed in shock.
However, Sang Ye snorted coldly, "Since he is also a member of the Sang family, why was he so harsh with us on the Sunset Grassland, leaving no mercy?"
Sang Zilan sneered, "Can’t you see? He’s venting anger for Sang Xuewu." Saying this, she bit her lower lip, her heart filled with both jealousy and envy.
"Zilan, how do you know he is a brother?" Sang Ye suddenly asked.
Sang Zilan glared at him and scolded softly, "Are you a pig? It’s said that he’s a child who drifted away. Aunt Lanruo has been reclusive for the past ten-plus years since returning to the Sang family, and only gave birth to the twins Sang Xuewu and Sang Yichen. This suddenly emerging child could hardly be younger than them, right?"
"Oh, oh! I understand now." Sang Ye nodded woodenly, looking at Sang Zilan with admiration, "Zilan, you’re really clever!"
Sang Zilan sighed helplessly.
"Clan leader, is she really our Sang Clan’s blood? Has it been verified whether she has the bloodline?" One of the Supreme Elders asked.
"Not yet." King Sang Shun answered truthfully.
"In that case, what are we waiting for? Quickly test it!" Another Supreme Elder urged anxiously.
The Sang Clan was now lacking in talents, and if this extraordinary young master truly possessed the Sang Clan’s blood and inherited a highly pure bloodline, it would be a blessing for the Sang Clan.
"Wait." Suddenly, Mu Qingge, who had been silent, spoke.
When she spoke, everyone’s gaze focused on her, including the six Supreme Elders.
"Did I ever say I have any relationship with the Sang clan?" Mu Qingge mocked coldly.
This statement caused the faces of the six Supreme Elders to change.
King Sang Shun quickly said, "Supreme Elders, this child had some misunderstandings with the Sang family before. Let me talk to her properly."
With that, he stepped forward, leaped, and ascended to the execution platform.
"Ge’er, I need to speak with you." King Sang Shun stated directly.
His gaze traveled past Mu Qingge to land on Sang Lanruo, seeing Mei Zizhong tending to her wounds, he secretly sighed in relief. He recalled Mu Qingge mentioning that the white-clothed angelic-looking man was a Treasure Level Alchemist.
Mu Qingge calmly watched him. Suddenly, she waved her hand, and beside her, a beautiful and delicate boy appeared. A flash of vermillion, like a fiery light, moved at his brow center.
"Boss!" Yuanyuan came before Mu Qingge, his heart thrilled. His master had finally let him out!
"Abnormal Fire Body!"
"Abnormal Fire!"
The moment Yuanyuan appeared, the six Supreme Elders saw through his true nature.
King Sang Shun was also taken aback, his eyes filled with amazement as he looked at Mu Qingge. He had not expected her to possess an Abnormal Fire, and this Abnormal Fire gave an extremely powerful feeling.
"Guard this place, if anyone tries to force their way up, show no mercy." Mu Qingge instructed Yuanyuan.
"Yes!" Yuanyuan responded, running to Bai Xi’s side, flipping his palms to reveal two different-colored abnormal fires dancing in his grasp.
"Taichu Urgent Fire!"
"Bone Demon Flame!"
"How could there be two types of abnormal fire?"
The six Supreme Elders recognized the origin of the abnormal fire in Yuanyuan’s hand and were incomparably shocked.
Suddenly, one Supreme Elder said in astonishment, "I know! It’s the Mixed Element Heavenly Extreme Flame!"
The Supreme Elder who had spoken nodded at King Sang Shun, and the six of them instantly disappeared from everyone’s sight.
...
In Sang Lanruo’s small courtyard, after settling her in, Mu Xuewu and Mu Yichen stayed by her side. Mei Zizhong walked out of the room and looked towards Mu Qingge who was standing in the courtyard.
He walked over to Mu Qingge’s side, who then turned her eyes to him.
"Thank you for your hard work, Senior Brother Mei."
Mei Zizhong shook his head slowly, smiling gently, "It’s nothing, just a small effort. The wounds are all treated, but because of the bone and tendon injuries, the recovery might be slower. The elixir has also been taken, and with some recuperation, she should be fully healed in a few days."
"Her old ailment..." Mu Qingge hesitated to ask.
"She’s also taken the elixir for that." Mei Zizhong smiled.
Mu Qingge nodded, her gaze shifting to the distance.
Standing beside her, Mei Zizhong asked in a low voice, "Qingge, why didn’t you heal her yourself?" Mu Qingge’s alchemy skills far surpassed his, yet she was unwilling to handle it personally. He understood it was probably because she harbored some internal strife.
Mu Qingge smiled and said, "Isn’t Senior Brother here? Since you’re here, let me be a little lazy."
Her smile made Mei Zizhong helplessly nod.
Then, he said, "But, you also understand that the environment here isn’t suitable for recovery." Mei Zizhong looked around and said to Mu Qingge.
This small courtyard had previously been infiltrated by the chill of mystic ice in the ice cellar. Even standing outside the courtyard would make one feel a chill. Even though the mystic ice had been taken away by Mu Qingge, the accumulated cold over time couldn’t be dispelled in just a few days.
Mu Qingge gave an almost indiscernible nod, saying softly, "Then let’s find a new place to stay."
"Change residence!" Mu Yichen happened to walk out from inside the house, and heard Mu Qingge and Mei Zizhong’s conversation.
Mu Qingge and Mei Zizhong turned together to see Mu Yichen walking over with a troubled expression.
"Boss, Mother won’t leave here. Xuewu and I, along with Grandfather, have persuaded her countless times, yet she still refuses to leave."
"That’s right." Suddenly, a voice interjected.
The three in the courtyard turned to see King Sang Shun striding in.
King Sang Shun explained, "Before this, I also tried to persuade her, saying that since the one she wanted to wait for is gone, there’s no need to stay here. But she stubbornly refused any advice."
"She doesn’t have a say now. Being a patient requires being mindful of her condition. The life saved by Master Mei’s efforts should not be squandered by her." Mu Qingge said in a calm tone.
These domineering words left Mu Yichen speechless, while King Sang Shun’s eyes sparkled with approval.
Mu Qingge looked at Mu Yichen and said, "Go pack, we’re moving today."
"Yes, Boss!" Mu Yichen had just turned to run a few steps when he looked back nervously asking, "What if Mother still refuses?"
"Then knock her out and take her away." Mu Qingge said.
Hiss—!
This was too sharp!
The courtyard fell silent.
Mu Qingge, seeing Mu Yichen’s stunned expression, said indifferently, "If she won’t go, knock her out. If she decides to fast, Master Mei has enough fasting pills to keep her alive. If she continues to make a fuss, tell her that if she doesn’t behave, I’ll bury Mu Liancheng right away."
Mu Yichen gasped, giving Mu Qingge a thumbs-up, then turned and ran inside to relay Mu Qingge’s words.
Mu Qingge turned back, meeting King Sang Shun’s smiling gaze.
"Previously, I told her you used her life as a threat to exchange the artifact refining technique with me. She wasn’t angry; instead, she praised you for being clever, even smarter than your father. Now, I agree with her viewpoint." King Sang Shun said to Mu Qingge.
Mu Qingge, however, replied faintly, "Thank you for the compliment."
"Boss, Mother agreed to move." Mu Yichen burst out excitedly, admiring Mu Qingge even more.
"But." He hesitated and said, "Mother said that since you’re staying temporarily, can you bring Father back too, so she can care for him."
"No." Mu Qingge refused without a second thought.
Sang Lanruo’s current health can’t handle contact with the mystic ice and Mu Liancheng, it would be courting death.
"This..." Mu Yichen felt a bit remorseful.
Mu Qingge coldly said, "If you wish her an early death, feel free to indulge her. Tell her that if she wants to see Mu Liancheng, she can wait until she’s fully recovered."
"Un...understood." Mu Yichen nodded dumbly.
He suddenly realized that with this big sister here, their family finally had a backbone.
"Ge’er, you should also move into the Sang Family; it will be more convenient this way for artifact refining." King Sang Shun suggested taking advantage of the opportunity.
Mu Qingge thought for a moment, then asked, "Here is fine. While I’m staying with the Sang Family, I’ll live here." She valued the quiet environment that wouldn’t be disturbed.
"But didn’t you mention the cold here is too intense..." Mu Yichen asked curiously.
Mu Qingge said, "This cold has no effect on me." With Yuanyuan present, this cold posed no issue at all.
"Very well, I’ll send someone over to tidy up later." King Sang Shun didn’t insist.
"No need, I have my own servants." Mu Qingge declined his kindness.
At this time, Mu Chen and Mu Peng approached. Mu Peng had originally gone to rally the troops, but when he arrived with his men, everything was already over.
"Young Master."
"Young Master."
Mu Chen and Mu Peng addressed Mu Qingge.
Mu Qingge nodded and walked over to them. "I plan to stay in the Sang Family for a while now. You should take this opportunity to return and bring your people over, and be on standby in Fusha City. In the future, you no longer need to hide in the deep mountains; I have a place for you to settle."
She planned to quickly forge equipment for the Dragon Tooth Guards, and then let Mu Chen lead the men with Bai Xi to Luoxing City. Once there was more news about the Divine Strategy Middle Volume, she would have them come over.
"Yes, Young Master." Mu Chen and Mu Peng accepted the order.
After the two retreated, King Sang Shun looked at Mu Qingge puzzled and asked, "They call you Young Master, and before they also called Mu Luofeng Young Master. What’s going on here?"
"My matters don’t need to be explained to the Sang Family Head, do they?" Mu Qingge smiled enigmatically at King Sang Shun.
"Ge’er, Grandpa is just worried about you." King Sang Shun frowned.
"Thank you for your concern, Sang Family Head." Mu Qingge said nonchalantly.
There’s a type of person in this world who can abruptly end a conversation! King Sang Shun sighed helplessly, unsure if in three years, Mu Qingge’s deep-seated resentment would be worn away.
Mu Qingge turned and said to Mei Zizhong, "Senior Brother Mei, I’m going out for a bit to bring Jiang Li and the others here. I’ll leave this to you."
Mei Zizhong nodded, "Go ahead without worry."
Mu Qingge nodded, turned, and left.
King Sang Shun quickly said, "Ge’er, where are you going?"
Mu Qingge stopped, frowning, "What? Are you planning to start questioning my whereabouts and restricting my movements?"
"Don’t misunderstand, child. I just wanted to remind you that the time for your bloodline recognition has been set; it’s tomorrow. I don’t care where you go, but don’t miss the timing." King Sang Shun said.
"Tomorrow?" Mu Qingge’s eyes flashed, whispering softly.
King Sang Shun nodded, "First, we’ll confirm if you possess the Sang Family’s artifact refiner bloodline, then we’ll awaken it for you, and you can start refining artifacts."
Mu Qingge turned around, looking at King Sang Shun with clear eyes full of ambiguity.
"What is it?" King Sang Shun looked at her in surprise.
Mu Qingge’s interest in artifact refining made him believe she must possess the bloodline. However, he didn’t realize Mu Qingge had already activated her bloodline through extreme means and was now a Treasure Level Refiner.
Mu Qingge slowly shook her head, said nothing, and left...
