“Then let me ask you. Where is my birth mother?” Qiao Mu asked softly in a low voice.
Wei Ziqin’s grip on Qiao Zhongbang’s hand faltered.
Mu Jingrui was also startled. He clammed up before saying after some time, “Qiaoqiao, I still, cannot tell you about your mother at the moment.”
“There is some misunderstanding in all of this that cannot be explained clearly in a few words.” Mu Jingrui explained with a sigh, “I was entrusted by your grandfather to e search for you. Qiaoqiao, you have to know that your grandfather has never given up searching for you all these years.”
“Ha, ha!” The two curt chortles that Qiao Mu apathetically uttered made one’s heart turn cold and tremble fearfully. “Then let me ask you again. If I leave with you, what identity will I use to return?”
“Qiaoqiao, our Mu Clan has set up a space talisman matrix in the Mo Kingdom capital that connects the Lower Star Domain to the Divine Province’s Mu Clan. Only people from our Mu Clan are able to activate it! It can transfer people once in a six-month period, each time not exceeding five people. At that time, we can use this space talisman matrix to return…”
Qiao Mu examined this man in front of her icily.
That bone-chilling gaze caused Mu Jingrui to suddenly see his sister-in-law through her.
That lonely woman with a cold and proud temperament that he had respected for many years.
But evidently, the little lady before him was even more heartless than that haughty and aloof sister-in-law of his.
She seemed to not like people from the Mu Clan all that much.
“Ludicrous! You want me to follow you back to your clan like a stray cur with my tail between my legs?” Qiao Mu’s expression did not change at all as she uttered these words without any warmth.
“Why should I listen to you?”
“You don’t know what’s good for you!” The white-haired elder hollered.
With a wave of her hand, a green vine shot out from her sleeve, whipping toward that elder’s face without warning.
“So what if I don’t know what’s good for me?”
*Smack!* Mu Jingrui appeared in front of the elder with a flash and tightly restrained the vine whip in his hand even though he felt his palm hurt from the lash.
Mu Jingrui’s eyes bulged when he turned his head and saw Qiao Mu hurl a wave of mystic energy straight at the white-haired elder.
“Qiaoqiao.” Mu Jingrui was shocked.
The degree of concentration of this mystic energy meant…
*Boom!* The mystic energy hit the elder squarely. Even though he made a move to resist, Qiao Mu’s mystic energy attack still struck him out of the study. He directly rolled down the steps quite tragically.
“You had better best not try my patience.” Qiao Mu wore an unfeeling expression. “Don’t make things look bad for yourself when you’re getting on in years.”
“Level-14 mystic cultivator?” Mu Jingrui was thrilled at the same time he was shocked.
This child had already advanced by leaps to bee a level-14 mystic cultivator at such a young age?
Her talisman talent was also not worse than Xingchen’s.
With such achievements, this young genius was a cut above that current eldest miss of their Divine Province’s Mu Clan.
“That whatever Mu Clan of the Divine Province has nothing to do with me.” Qiao Mu stated coldly before raising her hand and saying, “Chunying, see the guests out.”
“Yes, Miss.” Chunying quickly bolted in from outside before respectfully curtsying toward Seventh Master Mu and the white-haired elder. “This way, please.”
The elder stood up sullenly with displeasure. “Simply outrageous!”
