Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort novel Chapter 867

Chapter 867: Chapter 302: Enter My Divine Hall, Spare Your Life (3 Updates)

’Currently unknown.’ Mu Qingge also replied through sound transmission.

Xi Qianxue certainly didn’t know she was being hunted by the Divine Hall; otherwise, there wouldn’t have been no news for several years. In this regard, Mu Qingge had considerable trust in Xi Qianxue.

Her response made Xi Qianxue bite her lip, her brows slightly furrowed, and her eyes filled with some worry.

Seeing her expression, Mu Qingge raised an eyebrow and transmitted: ’What are you worried about?’

Xi Qianxue looked up at her, the worry in her eyes openly apparent, ’Years ago, I returned from the Ancient Battlefield, during a moment of lost focus in cultivation, I was coincidentally encountered by my mentor. He seemed to notice the emotions in my heart, so he questioned whether I had developed mortal feelings. However, I denied it promptly at that time. Although he didn’t pursue the matter further, I felt he wasn’t fully convinced.’

Mu Qingge squinted her eyes slightly, listening to Xi Qianxue’s words.

Four years ago, beside the Ruishui River, Wei Molili spoke half-understood words, and she only guessed a vague outline. Today, she finally learned the course of events from Xi Qianxue.

’Later, I discovered that my mentor was secretly investigating who I was close to during that period and gradually fixed his gaze on Wei Molili. One day, my mentor came to see me at my retreat and questioned if I had feelings for Wei Molili. Seeing that he was still entangled in this matter and fearing he would trace it back to you, implicating you, I didn’t respond. Yet, I made my stance clear, that I wouldn’t indulge in worldly passions in this life and would solely focus on the Dao. However, he left angrily and confined me. Sensing something was amiss, I secretly dispatched my confidant to inform Wei Molili, who replied that you saved his life once, and he was willing to shoulder this danger for you,’ Xi Qianxue explained.

It was only until then that Mu Qingge fully understood these events.

’You came to the Central Continent for the Divine Tomb, yet your mentor suddenly summoned you alone. I’m worried he might have discovered something.’ Xi Qianxue expressed her concern.

Mu Qingge inwardly sneered.

Of course, she knew the Divine Venerable summoned her not for Xi Qianxue but for the Heaven-Burning Furnace.

However, she didn’t want Xi Qianxue to know this yet, to avoid involving her. So she merely comforted, ’Don’t worry; the Divine Venerable called me, probably not because of this. Besides, even if he knows, what if he got the wrong person? I’m a woman; does he think something could happen between you and me?’

Unexpectedly, her words made Xi Qianxue’s cheeks swiftly blush crimson.

The pure and transcendent features suddenly showed a shy expression, which made Mu Qingge astonished, wondering if she had said something wrong.

’It’s good if it’s not,’ Xi Qianxue’s eyes showed some panic as she tried to conceal her heartbeat.

She led Mu Qingge off the floating bridge and onto Lake Heart Island.

She introduced to Mu Qingge, "Here is where my mentor cultivates. It’s difficult for an ordinary person to enter. Being summoned here by him shows how much he values you."

Values her?

Mu Qingge raised an eyebrow; he must value her Heaven-Burning Furnace instead.

"Do you see that spire?" Xi Qianxue suddenly said.

Mu Qingge looked up; wasn’t that soaring spire the same one visible from the outside?

"From there, one can receive orders from the Divine Demon Continent, mostly from the Divine Clan. Naturally, the order to pursue a genius of the Mu surname came from there as well," Xi Qianxue said with a smile.

If not for that event, probably many connections wouldn’t have formed later between her and Mu Qingge.

And as for that affair, Mu Qingge knew early on it was Mu Tianyin’s doing. And Mu Tianyin... the image of that person surfaced again in her mind, causing Mu Qingge’s aura to cool slightly.

"What’s wrong?" Noticing the sudden coldness beside her, Xi Qianxue quickly asked.

Mu Qingge slowly shook her head, indicating she was fine.

Entering the palace on Lake Heart Island, Xi Qianxue no longer spoke to Mu Qingge, reverting to the aloofness of a Goddess. She walked slightly ahead, while Mu Qingge lagged a bit behind.

Following the carpet laid on the floor, stepping into the sacred palace, Mu Qingge saw a figure seated on the throne.

The person wore a silver robe, adorned with golden embroidery, looking extremely luxurious, sacred, and noble. His silver hair was pure without a hint of other tones.

However, his features appeared quite young, and he could be considered handsome.

’So young!’ Mu Qingge marveled in her heart.

But her intel informed her that the Divine Venerable of this generation in the Divine Hall was already a thousand years old.

"Qianxue pays respect to Master!" Xi Qianxue stood beneath the divine seat, bowing respectfully.

Mu Qingge, however, did not move, merely standing slightly behind her, looking at the Divine Venerable with clear and penetrating eyes. It wasn’t arrogance that made her proud but because the contention between her and the Divine Hall had long been clandestinely fierce, both sides were well aware; why feign courtesy?

Her silence made the Divine Venerable’s gaze shift from Xi Qianxue to her.

At first glance, Mu Qingge felt a deeply veiled aggression in the Divine Venerable’s eyes. This blatant scrutiny greatly displeased her.

She frowned slightly.

At this point, the Divine Venerable seemed to reserve himself somewhat, speaking, "City Lord Mu?"

Mu Qingge nodded lightly; when Xi Qianxue turned her gaze over, worried about her reaction, she smiled, "Mu Qingge greets the Divine Venerable."

The Divine Venerable’s eyes narrowed, the gaze shifting back and forth between Xi Qianxue and Mu Qingge, hiding some subtle thoughts unknown to others.

"I’ve long heard that City Lord Mu has achieved extraordinary accomplishments at a young age. Today, I’ve finally met you," the Divine Venerable remarked with a sense of implication.

However, he didn’t continue but turned to look at Xi Qianxue, showing a gentle gaze, "Qianxue, I didn’t expect you two to meet."

Xi Qianxue lowered her head to explain, "Replying to Master, I encountered City Lord Mu on the floating bridge. Knowing she was also coming to pay respects to you, I offered to lead the way."
