So that’s how it is.
In her heart, Mu Ge understood and asked, "What about Bai Xiyue?" Her delicate manner seed as though she knew nothing about cultivation.
"She seems to be at the Red Realm Peak." Mu Qingge said uncertainly, "She rarely shows it, if you hadn’t ntioned it, I might have forgotten that she is also a cultivator."
Red Realm Peak?
Mu Ge’s eyes flickered slightly. In this world, martial prowess is revered, so why does she seldom display her abilities in public? It seems even Mu Qingge almost forgot about it.
But—
Mu Ge thought of Mu Xiong at the Blue Realm Peak, Mu Lianrong at the Green Realm Peak, and then thought about herself, sighing suddenly, "Turns out I’m still the weakest one!"
Collecting her thoughts, Mu Ge imrsed herself in the profound world of cultivation.
...
In a delicately curated courtyard far from Chi Yun Garden, the gate bore the inscription ’Fuyue Courtyard’. At this mont, it too was engulfed in silence.
Only a single room let out a faint candlelight.
Inside, the furnishings revealed it to be a lady’s chamber.
On a large, intricately carved bed under silk curtains, a young girl in white sat cross-legged, her eyes shut, emitting a faint brilliant yellow glow.
After a long while, the yellow light on her body gradually retracted inward, and she slowly opened her eyes.
’Knock knock—’
The knocking on the door made her frown in displeasure, yet she still called out: "Co in."
The tightly closed door was pushed open, and Lv Zhi ca in holding a tray. On the tray was a jade bowl containing steaming bird’s nest soup.
"Miss, you must be tired from your practice, have so bird’s nest soup to replenish." Lv Zhi placed the jade bowl before Bai Xiyue.
Bai Xiyue glanced at her, got out of bed, took the jade bowl, and sipped it slowly.
While observing Bai Xiyue, Lv Zhi suddenly asked in confusion, "Miss, since you have an interest in Prince Rui, why not tell him that you are now at the Middle Rank of the Yellow Realm? If he knew of your talent, he would certainly ask the Duke for your hand."
Bai Xiyue’s hand paused with the spoon, her eyes reflecting contemplation, and then she said: "Aunt Lian hopes for to marry that wastrel Mu Qingge, even if it was as the main wife, it’s just so-so. This Duke Yongning Mansion, after all, still holds status in Qin Country. However, there’s a princess holding the main wife’s position, which oppresses . Prince Rui, on the other hand, would be an excellent choice. But, with his status, if I were to enter the mansion, I fear I wouldn’t even secure the title of a concubine. At this mont, I am still unsure whether to choose Duke Yongning Mansion or the Prince Rui Mansion, so it’s better not to let others know about these matters lightly." She finished, regrettably adding, "If this ti Mu Qingge dies outside, it would save from such trouble and headache."
Lv Zhi nodded, seemingly understanding yet not.
Bai Xiyue raised her eyes to look at her, her gentle gaze replaced by a sharp one. She warned Lv Zhi, "Concerning my matters, you better not utter a word to anyone outside, otherwise, you know my thods."
Lv Zhi’s face turned pale, and she hurriedly said, "Rest assured, Miss, Lv Zhi won’t say anything."
Bai Xiyue nodded in satisfaction, looking away.
At an angle Lv Zhi couldn’t see, her eyes showed a chilling gleam. She was indeed an orphan, but if it weren’t for the Mu Family, her father wouldn’t have died in battle, nor would her mother have abandoned her to live alone. If her parents were still alive, she would be a favored daughter of the heavens, a noble lady in Qin Country’s aristocracy. How could she be living under another’s roof, like a drifting duckweed? Since the Mu Family has hard her so, what’s wrong with her using them as a stepping stone to rise up?
...
Dawn was breaking.
In Chi Yun Garden, Mu Ge had cultivated all night.
Mu Qingge’s soul had also stood guard all night, and just as she sensed Mu Ge about to awaken from cultivation, a sudden change occurred.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Mu Ge’s body suddenly emanated a faint red glow, highlighting her exquisite and captivating face with unparalleled allure.
"Entered the Red Realm!" Mu Qingge exclaid in surprise. She didn’t expect that after only two nights of cultivation, Mu Ge had entered the Red Realm. One must know that even with excellent talent, it typically takes from half a month to a month from the start of cultivation to enter the Red Realm.
However, what shocked her even more followed—
The red glow on Mu Ge’s body gradually deepened, finally becoming glaringly bright, and then, from red to orange, from pale to deep... hardly taking a mont’s pause, the orange glow changed again, transforming into a yellow glow. The yellow glow continued to intensify until it reached its most vibrant state, then subtly cald down.
But, Mu Qingge clearly sensed, if it continued on, that dazzling yellow glow indeed had the potential to turn green. However, this potential was artificially suppressed.
"This... how is this possible?! How can soone advance from the Red Realm to the Yellow Realm Peak overnight?! What kind of monster is she!" Mu Qingge was left stunned, murmuring to herself.
