Those who once sought to kill her, determined to take her life, now all kneel at her feet, wagging their tails and begging for mercy.

Mu Qingge’s eyes were slightly cold, filled with mockery.

How could she not know that their shameless behavior was because of the man beside her?

But, what does it matter?

Her man, even if intimidating with borrowed might, so what?

The earnest pleas from the Lan Family, the Myriad Beasts Sect and the Refining Tower couldn’t quite express. The grievances between them and Mu Qingge, both sides were well aware of their origins.

"Oh? Traitor, just what kind of traitor has deceived the Lan Family?" Mu Qingge suddenly said playfully.

The ancestor of the Lan Family’s eyes lit up, as if he saw a glimmer of hope.

However, how could he know so much about the convolutions within?

This plan to kill Mu Qingge, he only knew vaguely. He knew that an incredible genius had suddenly appeared in Tiandu, catching the attention of the Holy King, and even returned for their family’s moon.

Thus, as per usual practice, killing was the most ordinary thing to do!

The Lan Family ancestor’s eyes turned, his gaze falling on the Lan Family Head.

He grabbed the Lan Family Head and struck him with his palm, waking him from his stupor.

A crisp slap echoed in the forbidden area.

Mu Qingge looked playfully at the Lan Family Head’s rapidly swelling cheek, while Si Mo’s expression remained indifferent, hard to discern any joy or anger. After all, only when he looked at the woman beside him did his detached, aloof gaze soften.

The Lan Family Head suddenly woke up, his gaze wandered around, finally landing on Lan Feiyue’s tattered corpse, instantly recognizing who it was. His eyes immediately shrank, and he screamed in terror, "Ah—! Ah—!"

As he screamed, he retreated backward, bumping into the Lan Family ancestor.

Seeing his disgraceful appearance, the Lan Family ancestor really wished to slap him dead.

However, this useless thing couldn’t die now!

The Lan Family ancestor grabbed the Lan Family Head’s collar and lifted him from the ground, asking, "I ask you, who exactly wants to harm my Lan Family? To deceive my Lan Family! To make my Lan Family sinners!"

The implication in his words was clear, as if pinning all the blame elsewhere could ensure the Lan Family’s safety.

Meanwhile, Hei Mu and Lou Xuantie’s hearts tightened, crying ’not good!’ If the Holy King discovered that they had fueled the flames and planned to kill Mu Qingge, their lives would be forfeit!

Yet, even if they wanted to kill to silence him now, it was impossible.

The shaking awakened some clarity in the Lan Family Head.

Faced with the ancestor’s question, he quickly replied with a pale expression, "It was the Myriad Beasts Sect and the Refining Tower, they came to us on their own, it’s none of my business, none of my business... I was going to refuse, it was... it was Lan Feiyue... Lan Feiyue insisted on cooperating, wanted to get rid of Mu Qingge!"

After the Lan Family Head spoke, Mu Qingge already felt the chill spread over Si Mo’s body.

This man’s aura had become violent.

He was angry because he heard that someone had been plotting to kill him!

Subtly, Mu Qingge felt some of her own murderous aura dissipate. She quietly held Si Mo’s hand, seemingly reassuring him that she was unharmed.

However, little did she know, Si Mo had almost lost her once.

These people before him hadn’t failed in forcing Mu Qingge to her death, but had succeeded once!

This, he would never tell Mu Qingge, but everyone present must die!

"Everyone involved in this matter, including the forces behind them, their families, direct and collateral relatives, all must pay with their lives!" Si Mo tightly gripped Mu Qingge’s hand, stating his decision with utter coldness.

He had no interest in entangling with these damned people, only killing could calm the anger in his heart.

［Everyone involved in this matter, including the forces behind them, their families, direct and collateral relatives, all must pay with their lives!］

Si Mo’s words left everyone present breathless with shock.

They widened their eyes, barely able to believe what they were hearing.

With one sentence, the scope implicated shook the entire Linchuan!

Not only would the three masterminding forces be eradicated, but the numerous families behind them would also be wiped out. With one sentence, everyone could almost see a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood before them!

For one woman, the Holy King was truly going to do this!

Most shocked were the people from the Lan Family, Myriad Beasts Sect, and the Refining Tower.

They thought only their lives were in danger, not expecting this would implicate their families!

Escape?

Ha ha...

If the Holy King wanted to kill, where in all of Linchuan could they escape to?

A feeling of impending doom overwhelmed them, chilling them to the bone.

No! They were unwilling!

"Holy King, we are guilty, just kill us! Why involve our families and clansmen!" protested an elder from the Refining Tower at the Initial Rank of the Spiritual Movement Stage.

Si Mo cast a cold glance, and as his gaze fell on the elder from the Refining Tower, who had just spoken, he exploded before everyone’s eyes, his mutilated flesh and shattered bones scattering everywhere.

Such dominance, who dared speak again?!

The scent of blood spread, while the forbidden area remained so silent that breathing was held.

What’s called ’killing you with a glance!’ and dying so obviously!

"So impressive!" Jiang Li looked at Si Mo with eyes full of stars.

Han Caicai snorted, "Cold-blooded!"

Jiang Li glared at him, "What do you know? This is called madness for love!"

Madness for love?

Those four words seemed to pierce Han Caicai’s nerves.

Suddenly, he felt like an unnecessary presence here, unable to even move freely before that man.

A sense of stifling frustration stirred his unwillingness and competitiveness.

When he looked at Mu Qingge’s slender back again, his eyes were filled with intense challenge.

He had just killed someone, yet it was as if nothing had happened.

Si Mo was merely focused on checking Mu Qingge for any traces of blood and flesh from the explosion. When he saw a small piece of flesh stuck to Mu Qingge’s hem, he frowned with displeasure.

With a wave of his hand, that piece of the hem was cut away.

He looked apologetically at Mu Qingge and said, "I’ll be more careful next time."

Mu Qingge watched him and smiled, "It’s all right, I like it simple and rough like this!"

Honestly, seeing the elder from the Refining Tower at the Spiritual Movement Stage explode directly, she also enjoyed it! Didn’t you?

"You like it?" Si Mo’s eyes brightened at Mu Qingge’s words, "Good, as long as you like it, I’ll kill more for you to see in the future!"

Hiss—!

Lord! Save us!

What kind of bizarre conversation was this?

Is this how people talk about love?

Countless people wept silently in their hearts, wondering where their Holy King, who represented the absolute power of supremacy, had gone? How had he become a butcher indifferent to killing?

Gu Ya and Gu Ye, however, were accustomed to it.

They had long known that before the young Lord Mu, their master had no principles whatsoever.

Moreover, they didn’t think killing a few people was anything significant.

Huangfu Huan and Huangfu Haotian exchanged a silent look and couldn’t help but smile bitterly. Clearly, they had underestimated the position of Young Lord Mu in the Holy King’s heart.

Huangfu Huan even cursed himself stupid in his heart!

How could the Holy King be interested in Mu Qingge’s talents, wanting to take her as a disciple? It was clearly...

Alas, blame it on Young Lord Mu disguising too well; he hadn’t thought of her as a woman at all!

"Holy King!"

"Holy King, spare us!"

"Holy King, spare us—!"

"Young Lord Mu, spare us!"

"Young Lord Mu, I was wrong!"

The three major forces, like stray dogs, kowtowed and begged for mercy before Mu Qingge.

Si Mo, who was in the midst of an intimate moment with Mu Qingge, was interrupted, and frowned in displeasure, giving a cold snort, "Noisy."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Ya and Gu Ye simultaneously flashed out, their dark shadows flitting among the three major forces. When they returned to their original positions, everyone saw them sheath the swords they held.

Immediately after, when they looked at the people from the three major forces, they found each one covering their mouths, bleeding profusely, moaning in agony.

On the ground, there were tongues strewn everywhere!

Hei Mu was like this, Lou Xuantie was like this, and so were the Lan Family patriarch, Lan Xuanfeng, Lan Gang, and even the already deranged Family Head of the Lan Family.

Too brutal! Too bloody! Unbelievable, right?

Many people secretly swallowed a gulp, trying to reduce their presence in front of the god of slaughter.

"Now it’s much quieter." Si Mo gave Mu Qingge a faint smile.

Countless people despaired!

They had just been hoping that the Holy King would feel that Mu little Lord was too ruthless, and thus lessen his favor towards her. But unexpectedly, the truly ruthless one was the Holy King.

This exalted being, the true ruler of Linchuan!

To win a beauty’s smile, he was really capable of slaughtering the entire world!

Suddenly, the onlookers had a eureka moment! They all simultaneously understood one thing... that was, provoking the Holy King Ya would perhaps leave one with a whole corpse, but if you offended Mu little Lord, you would die without a complete body!

Why was her man the Holy King, after all?!

"Hmm, it’s quiet now, which makes it convenient to do the next thing." Mu Qingge nodded almost imperceptibly.

Her clear eyes swept over Hei Mu and Lou Xuantie.

Their bodies trembled simultaneously, knowing their end had come!

At this moment, they regretted intensely in their hearts. Had they known today, why did they always oppose Mu Qingge, wishing her dead?

Had they known today, they would have flattered her endlessly, obsequiously pleasing her.

Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in the world, even if they are more afraid and regretful now, it is all to no avail.

Gu Ya and Gu Ye were very perceptive. When Mu Qingge’s gaze fell on Hei Mu and Lou Xuantie, they acted again, each gripped one, and directly threw these two old dogs at Mu Qingge’s feet.

"Ah ah—!"

"Ah—!"

Hei Mu and Lou Xuantie’s tongues had been cut off, and they could no longer speak. They could only raise their heads, making ’um ah’ sounds, but from their eyes and expressions, one could tell they were begging for mercy.

Mu Qingge sneered, stepping forward, looking down at them, and said, "You have tried more than once to kill me. Tell me, how should I repay you?"

It seemed like the most dreadful thing was about to happen.

Despair and fear were evident in the eyes of Hei Mu and Lou Xuantie, having long discarded their dignity, kneeling in front of Mu Qingge like the lowest slaves, kowtowing fervently, unaware even when their foreheads started bleeding.

The former enemies, now kneeling before her, pathetically kowtowing and pleading for mercy.

Even if it was not because of her strength that they were like this, Mu Qingge still felt a bit of the pent-up depression in her heart was released.

A cold smile crossed her lips, and she asked, "What level are the spirit beasts in those forbidden areas of the Trial Space?"

This question was directed at Si Mo.

Si Mo cooperated with an answer, "Enough to deal with him." His eyes flickered, filled with doting. It seemed he had already guessed what his little Ge’er wanted to do.

"Excellent!" Mu Qingge’s smile became eerie.

She took out a packet of powder, "Gu Ya."

Gu Ya immediately stepped forward.

After the earlier shock, seeing such a cooperative Black Servant now, what more could others say?

No wonder, no wonder the Lan Family once went to great lengths to send their daughters to the Li Palace. Look, isn’t this an example of being favored right in front of us?

Mu Qingge tossed the powder into Gu Ya’s hands, her smile eerily fixed on Hei Mu, yet her gaze remained cold. "Take him to the Trial Space, find the fiercest spirit beast forbidden area, and sprinkle this powder on the spirit beasts."

Gu Ya looked at her in slight astonishment but didn’t hesitate, grabbing the struggling Hei Mu and disappearing from the spot.

After Gu Ya and Hei Mu disappeared, Huangfu Haotian and the other three Family Heads looked on in endless envy. See, that’s the gap.

They had spent so much effort trying to make exceptions to open the gate of the Trial Space, yet the Black Servant beside the Holy King could easily take people in.

People comparing people really makes one furious!

Gu Ya hadn’t been gone for long before he returned.

When he came back, he no longer had Hei Mu with him.

"That powder of little Ge’er’s..." Si Mo inquired.

Mu Qingge, however, gave him a mysterious smile, took out a mirror, and tossed it into the air to hang. "You’ll find out soon enough."

She channeled spiritual power into the mirror, and the God-piercing Mirror immediately reflected the image of Hei Mu.

At this moment, everyone could see that in the mirror, Hei Mu was surrounded by a horde of fierce-looking spirit beasts, their eyes blood-red, gazing at Hei Mu as if they were seeing a peerless beauty!

Suddenly, most people realized something.

When the spirit beasts pounced on Hei Mu and engulfed him, only then did Mu Qingge lightly answer Si Mo’s question, "That’s aphrodisiac powder."

Pfft!

Everyone clutched their chests, feeling as if they were about to spit out a mouthful of blood!

Too ruthless!

The wretched state of Hei Mu was entirely exposed in the God-piercing Mirror. Such unsightly scenes, yet Mu Qingge watched with relish.

Si Mo’s face darkened slightly, and he raised his hand to block her view.

"Why?" With her sight obstructed, Mu Qingge grabbed Si Mo’s hand, trying to push it away.

But Si Mo’s hand remained unmoved, and his intoxicating voice sounded in her ear, "Be good, don’t watch."

Uh!

Mu Qingge was stunned, but it was just beasts mating, what was there that shouldn’t be watched?

However, sensing the insistence in the man’s words, Mu Qingge pursed her lips and lowered her eyes, counting her fingers, feeling infinitely aggrieved.

Seeing her like this, Si Mo felt a slight itch in his heart, and love almost overflowed from his eyes.

He glanced at the God-piercing Mirror and whispered in her ear, "Once, I felt someone was peeping. Did you use this thing? Could it be, little Ge’er was peeping at me?"

As the past was brought up, Mu Qingge stiffened, the tips of her translucent ears quickly dyed with a shimmering color.

Her gaze flickered for a moment, and she feigned calmness as she said, "Was there? Why do I not know?"

"Do you not know?" Si Mo let out a meaningful chuckle.

Mu Qingge turned her eyes on him, looking serious. "Someone actually peeps at you; seems like they aren’t small fry, you’d better be careful."

Si Mo looked at her with amusement and nodded slightly imperceptibly, "Hmm. I thought it was little Ge’er, but now it seems it’s not. I really need to check it out thoroughly and drag this person out, little Ge’er, don’t you agree?"

Seeing the man’s gaze made her a bit flustered, Mu Qingge tightened her jaw and hummed in agreement.

The flirtatious banter between the two did not dispel the fear brought by the heart-trembling images from the God-piercing Mirror.

Especially Lou Xuantie, whose face was ashen as he watched Hei Mu’s torment, his heart surging with over a hundred thoughts of ending it all.

Hei Mu was the Great Elder of the Myriad Beasts Sect, having dealt with spirit beasts all his life.

In the past, he had always controlled spirit beasts; now, Mu Qingge had him humiliated and killed by spirit beasts in front of everyone. Terrifying! This woman’s heart is terrifying!

While she killed with such cruel means, she could still chat and laugh with the Holy King unaffected.

What is her heart made of!

The miserable state of Hei Mu sent chills down the spines of many, who looked at Mu Qingge with eyes filled with awe and dread.

They admired Mu Qingge for her unmatched talent and feared her ruthless methods!

They realized that this little Lord Mu not only had talent in cultivation and alchemy but also a talent for torment!

Simultaneously, many looked at Lou Xuantie, all guessing how little Lord Mu would deal with him!

Lou Xuantie wanted to die, but with Gu Ya and Gu Ye watching, he couldn’t even bring himself to do it!

Hei Mu was dead, dead in a humiliating manner.

He was ravaged to death by spirit beasts, then torn apart and devoured, leaving not even bones or a shred of cloth behind.

The people of the Myriad Beasts Sect, seeing Hei Mu’s miserable state, were already in despair.

They regretted coming here, regretted getting involved in this matter. If they hadn’t been sent, if they had stayed at the Myriad Beasts Sect, perhaps they might have escaped this calamity.

Mu Qingge withdrew the God-piercing Mirror, and her clear, icy gaze finally fell on Lou Xuantie.

With her gaze upon him, Lou Xuantie felt as if he had plunged into an ice cave, his whole body chilling to the bone.

Mu Qingge gave a strange smile, suddenly flicked a finger at him, and the invisible Eight Desolations Void Flame leaped from her fingertip, descending onto Lou Xuantie’s feet.

"Ah—!" The sudden scorching sensation made Lou Xuantie let out an unpleasant scream.

He desperately tried to extinguish the flames, but he couldn’t see them, could only feel the heat, and see the terrifying sight of his feet burning away and then disappearing.

The invisible flames slowly spread up from his feet, as if they intended to devour his body inch by inch.

Those who did not understand abnormal fire did not know what was happening.

But Han Caicai’s eyes narrowed, a fierce gleam shot from his long eyes, squeezing out a sentence from between his teeth, "It’s the Eight Desolations Void Flame!"

He looked at Mu Qingge in shock, as if he did not understand why she would control the Eight Desolations Void Flame!

The Wanxiang Building, all-knowing.

Han Caicai knew Mu Qingge was being hunted in Rong Country, also knew about the battle above the Endless Swamp.

However, he did not know that Mu Qingge obtained the Mixed Element Heavenly Extreme Flame and successfully subdued it. Even less did he know that Mu Qingge, by a stroke of luck, acquired the Bone Demon Flame, catalyzed the Mixed Element Heavenly Extreme Flame, and then used it to devour the Eight Desolations Void Flame, equivalent to possessing three types of abnormal fire!

It seems that the Wanxiang Building is not truly all-knowing!

In Lou Xuantie’s painful groans, he vanished bit by bit.

When he left only a charred mark, no one knew what had happened.

Personally dealing with the four culprits, Mu Qingge felt a trace of fatigue coming over her.

She was a bit tired.

Under absolute power, she was already too lazy to think further.

She leaned toward Si Mo, resting in his arms, lazily saying, "You handle what’s left, I’m tired." In any case, none should hope to escape punishment.

A cold gleam flashed in the depths of Mu Qingge’s clear eyes.

Ignoring the gazes of others, Si Mo wrapped his arms around Mu Qingge’s slender waist and protected her well.

Affectionately saying, "If you’re tired, then rest."

Then, he said to Gu Ya and Gu Ye, "Your mistress wants to see fireworks."

Fireworks? What fireworks?

How could there be fireworks in broad daylight?

Everyone was puzzled and confused.

They even overlooked the wording ’mistress’ as a declaration of sovereignty from Si Mo’s mouth.

Or perhaps, the events of the day had too much information, subconsciously avoiding the meaning represented by that term!

They didn’t understand, but Gu Ya and Gu Ye did.

Mu Qingge also understood, hence, a light smile played on her lips as she leaned against Si Mo.

Gu Ya and Gu Ye moved at the same time, throwing the people from the three major forces into the air.

No matter if they were of the Purple Realm or Spiritual Movement Stage, in front of them, they were as weak as babies!

These people, first half-scared to death by Si Mo, then had their tongues cut off, and after witnessing Mu Qingge’s horror, when thrown into the air at this moment, remembered what the Holy King said and seemed to foresee their fate.

Countless cries of despair echoed in the air.

Boom—!

A body burst apart, like a blood-colored firework blossoming in the air.

It was Lan Gang, the youngest Spiritual Movement Stage old monster of the Lan Family.

The Lan Family’s old ancestor watched with eyes wide open yet was helpless.

Boom boom boom—!

Bodies burst in the air, flesh and blood rained like a bloody downpour.

Ignoring the bloodiness, the scene could be described as extremely beautiful. Indeed, it was like daytime fireworks, presenting splendid and dazzling in the air.

Hundreds of people exploded one after another, the blood spilled drenching those on the ground, also soaking the entire Imperial Palace of the Holy Yuan Empire in flesh and blood.

On the ground, even the strongest Dragon Tooth Guards endured the discomfort in their hearts, allowing the blood and flesh to cling to them.

Many retching sounds were subtly heard, and everyone fell into an unprecedented fear.

They finally understood what fireworks meant!

Among them, only Mu Qingge and Si Mo remained clean, without a drop of bloodstain.

As the last body exploded in the air, the ground was already awash with blood, muddy and pungent. Yet, it was so quiet that even the drop of a pin could be heard.

Although it was clearly the sweltering dog days, everyone present felt bone-chilling cold, their blood frozen within their veins.

They wanted to escape this hell, yet could not move!

Huangfu Haotian was like this, Huangfu Huan was like this, the three major families were like this, Zhao Nanxing was like this, Feng Yufei was like this, Jiang Li was like this, Han Caicai was like this.

They were all covered in flesh and blood, having witnessed Si Mo’s cruel side.

To him, these people were no different from ants.

If he didn’t care, he could ignore them. But if they touched his reverse scale, he could annihilate them with the most ruthless means.

Mu Qingge slightly tilted her head, looking at Si Mo.

He was always spotless, yet now, surrounded by blood. Seeing his leisurely and comfortable appearance, it seemed he was used to such bloodshed.

Feeling Mu Qingge’s gaze, Si Mo’s body slightly tensed, he looked down at her, his amber eyes glinting. In a deep voice, he asked, "Ge’er, are you afraid?"

Mu Qingge furrowed her brows, confused, retorted: "Why should I be afraid?"

"..." Si Mo was stunned. Her expression was so calm, without a trace of pretense. For a moment, he couldn’t speak.

He originally wanted to ask if she thought he was cruel.

But Mu Qingge’s expression answered everything.

This made him quite delighted!

Exactly! This is the real him, representing endless slaughter!

Only in front of her would he cleanse himself of the slaughter and blood, desiring only to love and spoil her with everything.

In the world, only the woman before him has the right, worthy of receiving his heart, his everything!

Si Mo laughed, his smile dispelling the gloom over the bloody ground, he laughed heartily, suddenly, yet Mu Qingge understood him.

His smile affected Mu Qingge, causing her lips to curve unconsciously.

While everyone was bewildered, Si Mo suddenly stopped laughing and said to Mu Qingge, "Ge’er, I’ll take you to ransack and annihilate clans!"

With that, the two disappeared from the spot, Gu Ya and Gu Ye following closely.

As everyone was stunned, Si Mo’s cold indifferent voice fell from the sky, "Kill kill kill anyone who dares harm you!"

This statement was clearly a warning to everyone present!

The people were gone, but those kneeling in the forbidden area had yet to recover, as though they were still in hell.

"Little Lord—!"

The Dragon Tooth Guards came to their senses, stood up, wanting to chase.

Jiang Li stopped them, saying, "Don’t, can you catch up? Go back to the Post House and wait." After speaking, she disdainfully looked at the blood on herself, muttering, "This Empress wants to go back and take a bath! Too disgusting! Can these scenes in the future consider a beauty’s feelings?"

...

Mu Qingge was taken by Si Mo to the sky above the Lan Mansion, like deities, overlooking the Lan Family people.

Their sudden arrival caused panic among the Lan Family.

This time, Si Mo did not let Gu Ya and Gu Ye act but did it himself.

Ignoring the wailing, bitter pleas of the Lan Family, Si Mo’s incomparably handsome face remained indifferent, powerful forces emitted from his left hand, attacking the Lan Family.

His right hand held Mu Qingge’s slim waist tightly, accompanying her to watch the second show of daytime fireworks.

Bang bang bang——!

Boom boom boom——!

The buildings of the Lan Family collapsed continuously, all lives, humans, and livestock were taken into the air, exploded one after another, blood flowers bloomed, revealing a splendid scene before wilting.

The sound of explosions reverberated throughout Tiandu, many people witnessed this scene.

They with pale faces, had only one thought—Lan Family is finished!

The people in the Imperial Palace also saw this scene, having just felt their blood warming, they were once again thrown into an ice cave.

The Lan Family, truly finished!

All done, clean and spotless!

What remains is the reshuffling of new powers, another round of blood-soaked slaughter in the light and shadows.

Yet, this time, neither the Huangfu Imperial Family nor the other three families dare to act rashly. They must wait, wait until Mu Qingge voluntarily abandons the fatty meat that is the Lan Family, only then dare they all swarm in.

Otherwise, they might end up like the Lan Family!

Many people stared blankly at the bloodstains on the ground, pondering a question in their hearts. That is, now that the Lan Family is finished, where will be the next place? Does the Holy King really intend to destroy all the forces involved in this affair completely?

"The Myriad Beasts Sect and the Refining Tower are forces as renowned as Linchuan and the Medicine Tower. If they were to be exterminated, it would be no small loss to Linchuan." Huangfu Haotian said with a frown in worry.

As the Emperor of Linchuan’s strongest empire, naturally, he does not wish to see Linchuan weakened.

The downfall of the Refining Tower and the Myriad Beasts Sect would also mean a significant loss in tribute for the Imperial Family!

Huangfu Huan gave him a wry smile, "The rise and fall of any force is an inevitable phenomenon, Father, you shouldn’t focus too much on the immediate gains and losses."

Huangfu Haotian sighed, looked at Huangfu Huan, wanting to pat his shoulder, but seeing the filth on both of them, he awkwardly retracted his hand, merely saying to him, "You handled this matter well."

After thinking for a moment, he added, "Once this matter settles, you can visit the Upper Li Palace."

Huangfu Huan immediately understood his father’s intention. He pursed his lips, not saying much.

"Where to next?" Flying, Mu Qingge was unscathed by the cold. She asked Si Mo, who was holding her protectively in his embrace.

Si Mo lowered his head to look at her, giving her a dazzling smile, and replied, "Rong Country."

Rong Country!

Mu Qingge’s eyes lit up, the clarity in her eyes reflecting a sharp gleam!

Si Mo wanted to take her to Rong Country, and the purpose was self-evident.

Si Mo glanced at her, seeing her clear eyes flickering with excitement, and he also smiled, "Happy?"

Mu Qingge nodded without hesitation, "Revenge can’t wait for tomorrow! Once everything is settled, I can finally rest well."

"If you’re tired, I can take you back to rest first, and once you wake up, everything will be done." Si Mo looked at her seriously, indeed spotting a hint of subtle fatigue at her eyes’ corners, his sapphire eyes showing some pity.

However, his suggestion was flatly rejected by Mu Qingge. "I want to see it with my own eyes!"

Even if some people from the Myriad Beasts Sect and the Refining Tower have not yet wronged her, she still wants to see it with her own eyes!

Unless roots are eliminated, spring breezes will bring them back!

The Refining Tower can be left aside, Lou Xuantie, the dean, is dead. Those Elders from the Spiritual Movement Stage are almost all dead, and the remaining people pose no threat.

But the Myriad Beasts Sect...

Though Taishi Gao is dead, his father is still alive!

Without the Myriad Beasts Sect’s Sect Master’s command, how could Hei Mu and Taishi Gao mobilize so many old freaks from the Spiritual Movement Stage, and top powerhouses at the Purple Realm Peak?

Mu Qingge narrowed her eyes slightly, cold light flashing through the slits, as she said to Si Mo, "Let’s go to the Myriad Beasts Sect first."

Starting from the Holy Yuan Empire, whether heading to the Refining Tower or the Myriad Beasts Sect, the distance is about the same.

Si Mo had thought she would choose to go to the Refining Tower first, but she unexpectedly chose the Myriad Beasts Sect first. However, he said nothing, just nodded, adjusted his direction, and headed towards the Myriad Beasts Sect.

The Myriad Beasts Sect is located at the junction between Rong Country’s east and Yu Country. It is far from the towns, deep within the woods and mountains.

Even before getting close, beastly roars can be heard, instilling fear, and no wonder this place is sparsely populated.

As Si Mo took Mu Qingge across the heavens, they saw the Rong Country’s army.

She exclaimed, "This Rong Country’s army is heading in the direction of the Myriad Beasts Sect, right?"

Si Mo glanced at it, nonchalantly responded with an ’Mm’, explaining for her, "Perhaps Huangfu Haotian exerted pressure on Rong Country’s court, pushing them to send troops. If my guess is correct, another army is also heading towards the Refining Tower."

Mu Qingge scoffed, "How could these armies be a match for these sects? It’s just for show. By the time they arrive, we will have already dealt with everything."

Si Mo looked at her and smiled, "If Ge’er wants to watch the show, we can also rest for a while and appear at the opportune moment."

"No need." Mu Qingge spoke disinterestedly, "I don’t have that much time to waste on this."

Though she seemed fine at the moment, her Spiritual Power was somewhat running low.

She didn’t know why it was like this, perhaps a side effect of the great battle, but now she just wanted to quickly deal with everything and then rest and cultivate.

Si Mo, hearing her words, said nothing more, just silently sped up.

In the blink of an eye, the two had already arrived above the Myriad Beasts Sect.

"This time, I don’t want to see fireworks," Mu Qingge said before Si Mo could speak.

Si Mo looked at her with interest and asked, "Then what does little Ge’er want to see?"

Mu Qingge’s lips curled with a cold smile, "Gu Ya, could you please drag out the Sect Master of the Myriad Beasts Sect. Gu Ye, please gather the rest of the Myriad Beasts Sect people at that square."

From their vantage point, they could clearly see the layout of the buildings below.

The location Mu Qingge pointed to was the largest square in the entire sect, capable of holding nearly ten thousand people.

Gu Ya and Gu Ye did not hesitate and immediately executed Mu Qingge’s orders.

For no other reason than they had understood what Mu Qingge represented to Si Mo.

Since their master had decided, then Mu Qingge was their future mistress!

It was only after Mu Qingge finished speaking that the people of the Myriad Beasts Sect realized their presence.

Exclamations began to spread throughout the sect.

They were clearly not here with good intentions, so the people of the Myriad Beasts Sect naturally did not see them as guests.

However, no matter how quick their reactions were, they couldn’t be faster than Gu Ya and Gu Ye.

The protective array of the Myriad Beasts Sect had not yet been fully activated when Gu Ye punched it apart. Then, like a black lightning bolt, he pulled all the Myriad Beasts Sect members out and threw them onto the square designated by Mu Qingge.

Following Mu Qingge’s instructions, Gu Ya extracted the still clueless Sect Master of the Myriad Beasts Sect from the depths of the sect and brought him before Mu Qingge and Si Mo.

"Ho...Holy King!" Taishi Xiong trembled like a quail at the sight of Si Mo, who was as robust as a bear.

As for Mu Qingge, sorry, he didn’t recognize her.

Without needing Gu Ya to force him, Taishi Xiong had already knelt before Si Mo. The continuous screams coming from within the sect made him uneasy, not knowing how he had offended Si Mo.

"Do you know Taishi Gao?" Si Mo spoke calmly.

Taishi Xiong’s heart skipped a beat, and he promptly said, "That is my son. I don’t know how my son has offended Your Majesty, please enlighten me so I can properly discipline him."

"He tried to kill my woman," Si Mo said plainly and dominantly.

Mu Qingge raised her eyebrows.

Gu Ya twitched at the corner of his mouth.

Taishi Xiong nearly choked on his breath. "What! Impossible, how could that wretched son be so bold!" He pondered, who exactly was the Holy King’s woman? Could it be from the Lan family? How could his son possibly try to kill her?

"Are you saying I’m lying?" Si Mo’s eyes narrowed dangerously.

Taishi Xiong hastily shook his head with a grim face, "No, no, no, Taishi Xiong wouldn’t dare! That wretched son is so daring, I honestly didn’t know."

"You didn’t know? Hmm?" Si Mo’s lips curled into a faint bloodthirsty smile.

Taishi Xiong shivered instantly, hurriedly saying, "Your Majesty, I truly didn’t know!"

Si Mo’s icy eyes held a coldness, and he spoke indifferently, "He took quite a number of experts from your Myriad Beasts Sect; without your approval as the Sect Master, could he have achieved that?"

"No, no, no! Your Majesty, you misunderstood. Taishi Gao took the sect elders to deal with a Third-class Country’s lowborn, not to target Miss Lan!" Taishi Xiong hurriedly explained.

"Third-class Country lowborn... are you referring to Mu Qingge?" Mu Qingge suddenly said teasingly.

Only upon hearing her speak did Taishi Xiong look at her. At first glance, he found the red-clothed woman in front of him stunningly beautiful, a mix of intensity and elegance that was breathtaking.

Then he replayed her words in his mind.

The name Mu Qingge passed through his mind, and he immediately said, "Yes, yes, yes, that’s the Mu Qingge!"

Mu Qingge’s smile became even more playful. She pointed at herself, looked at Taishi Xiong, and said word for word, "I am that lowborn from the Third-class Country, Mu Qingge." Then, to Taishi Xiong’s shock, she pointed at Si Mo, who had a chilling aura, and said with a bright smile, "And he is my man."

Crack!

The petrified Taishi Xiong seemed to fracture.

Next to him, Gu Ya rolled his eyes, left speechless by the pair’s domineering display.

One said, your son wants to kill my woman.

The other instantly retorted, he is my man.

This public display of affection, have they considered the feelings of us single folks?

Waa~!

Gu Ya suddenly felt an urge to switch tasks with Gu Ye, to avoid staying here and suffering a thousand emotional blows.

"You’re Mu Qingge?! That’s impossible!" Taishi Xiong shrieked, his voice even sharper after breaking out of petrification.
