"Qingge, I’m stating my position first: if you’re going to Cold Inch, I’m going too." Jiang Li said directly upon seeing Mu Qingge co out.
Mu Qingge frowned, "This is not a joke; it’s very dangerous." There might even be encounters with people from the Divine Demon Continent.
But Jiang Li stubbornly shook her head, "It’s because there’s danger that I want to go with you. Don’t worry, I won’t hold you back."
"I want to go too!" Yuanyuan also declared.
Mu Qingge looked at the two of them. She definitely needed to bring Yuanyuan along, but Jiang Li...
"You better not go, just wait for here." Mu Qingge said.
However, Jiang Li still shook her head.
Mu Qingge pressed her lips without speaking, calculating in her mind. She must get to Cold Inch faster than the Divine Demon Continent side to find the Divine Strategy Middle Volu. Therefore, ti can’t be delayed.
The High Priest was unaware of Yin Chen and Bai Xi’s abilities and only recalled Mu Chen and Mu Peng from the Golden Realm.
But even if she ca back and reassigned people, a lot of ti would be wasted, and the other side might get ahead of them.
It seems that among those around her besides Mu Chen and Mu Peng, there were only the High Priest and Yuanyuan. Oh yes!
Mu Qingge’s eyes brightened, there was still Hou!
She had such a golden support hand!
Adding up the forces gathered around her, they weren’t small.
If Jiang Li were to co along... Mu Qingge lifted her gaze towards Jiang Li. In her heart, she thought, ’With her bloodline, if fully unleashed, it’s very formidable. Even if we encounter danger, she can at least protect herself.’
After considering, Mu Qingge finally nodded and said to Jiang Li, "Alright, if you want to co along, you can, but don’t take risks, listen to ."
"No problem!" Jiang Li nodded.
"Young Master, you just returned, eat sothing first." You He said at this mont.
Mu Qingge sat in the lounging chair under the tree, ate a few pieces of hot snacks, and then said to You He, "What’s the situation in Luoxing City now?"
"Replying to Young Master," You He said, "Now the reconstruction of Luoxing City is proceeding in an orderly manner. The Spirit-eating Beast has spit out many Spirit Stones, and they discovered a small ore vein near Luoxing City. Mo Yang tried to dig it and found it’s a branch vein producing Interdiate Spirit Stones. If dug deep, it might produce Advanced Spirit Stones."
"Oh?" Mu Qingge’s eyes brightened, she smiled and said, "This Spirit-eating Beast is indeed a good treasure."
"We roughly estimate that in another three months, we can announce the establishnt of Luoxing City. During this ti, Dragon Teeth’s cooperation with so other families is also ongoing, and the reputation of Dragon Teeth among Floating Guests is increasingly rising. As for recruiting staff, Mo Yang said we’ll start posting notices after two more months when Luoxing City is basically reorganized." You He reported all the details of Luoxing City to Mu Qingge.
After she finished, Xie Ya also returned, followed by Mu Chen and Mu Peng.
"Young Master!"
"Young Master!"
Mu Chen and Mu Peng greeted Mu Qingge, their eyes subtly showing excitent.
Mu Qingge nodded to them and said, "You’ve had a hard journey, rest well tonight. Tomorrow we’ll set off; there are many things that will rely on you at the destination."
"Young Master speaks highly," Mu Chen said.
Mu Qingge stood up from the rocking chair, murmured softly, "Tomorrow we leave again, looks like I need to say goodbye."
...
When Mu Qingge ca to find him, King Sang Shun’s face showed surprise.
"Ge’er, what’s the matter?" King Sang Shun asked.
Mu Qingge said, "Tomorrow, I need to go on a long trip, no set date for my return."
No set date for return?
King Sang Shun frowned and asked, "Is there sothing going on? If you need manpower, just ask. Although the Sang Clan has declined, we can still send so forces to protect you."
"No need." Mu Qingge shook her head refusing. "This ti it’s personal. I’ll take my people to handle it. The maids in my courtyard will stay behind, please ask the Family Head to look after them."
"You child, when will you call grandpa?" King Sang Shun said with so helplessness.
Mu Qingge’s lips twitched a little, she didn’t speak.
King Sang Shun walked up to her and with a sweep of his big hand, suddenly there was a piece of silver armor in his hand. "This is Divine Level armor I forged many years ago. Since you don’t want to bring people, take this and wear it. This armor can withstand all attacks below Golden Realm Third Layer, and even above can withstand three moves. With it, I’ll feel more assured."
"This..." Mu Qingge hesitated sowhat.
King Sang Shun pushed the armor into her embrace and said, "Don’t decline. Even if you aren’t my granddaughter, I still have to consider the fact that you bear the Ancestor God bloodline, so don’t feel like you owe anything."
With words said to this point, Mu Qingge nodded and put away the armor.
Afterward, she said, "I won’t go back on my promise to the Sang Family. If one day I enter the Land of Gods and Demons and obtain Divine Status, I will definitely activate the Sang Clan bloodline."
"Grandpa believes you. But don’t put too much pressure on yourself, you’re young, don’t rush too quickly." King Sang Shun nodded and said.
After leaving King Sang Shun, Mu Qingge unknowingly walked to the courtyard where Sang Lanruo and Mu Xuewu were now living.
She stood outside the courtyard gate but did not enter. She just looked across the courtyard, gazing at the lights shining out from the room inside.
"Boss!" Suddenly, a surprised voice rang out.
Mu Qingge’s eyes flickered as she looked at Mu Xuewu, who was quickly approaching her.
"Boss, when did you arrive? Co inside quickly." Mu Xuewu, seeing Mu Qingge standing outside the courtyard, felt a surge of joy in her heart, believing her mother had finally reached the light at the end of the tunnel.
Mu Qingge thought for a mont and followed Mu Xuewu into the courtyard’s room.
"Xuewu, who’s here?"
Inside, it seed they were having a al; four small dishes and two bowls of rice were laid out on the table.
At this mont, Sang Lanruo was sitting at the table, holding chopsticks and a bowl in her hands.
Seeing Mu Qingge walk in with Mu Xuewu, she put down the bowl and chopsticks in a daze and stood up. "Ge’er, you’ve co?"
After speaking, she was montarily dazed, and then flustered as she hurriedly invited, "Quick, quickly sit down. You haven’t eaten yet, have you? Why not join us here for a al?"
"Xuewu, quickly go prepare so chopsticks for your sister." She instructed Mu Xuewu.
Mu Xuewu nodded and turned to go out.
Mu Qingge did not resist and walked to the table, taking a seat in the vacant spot.
After a short while, Mu Xuewu ca in with a bowl of rice and chopsticks, placing them in front of Mu Qingge.
The three sat around the round table; this ti, upon returning from Linchuan, Mu Qingge had many talks with Mu Xiong, and felt a sense of unfamiliarity towards Sang Lanruo.
This unfamiliarity wasn’t caused by any specific event, but simply because they were originally unrelated individuals.
If she hadn’t possessed Mu Qingge’s body, she probably wouldn’t have even known Sang Lanruo.
With Mu Qingge joining the dinner, it was extrely quiet.
Mu Qingge used to be a soldier, and could quickly finish her al without a sound. As she finished the rice in her bowl, putting down her bowl and chopsticks, Sang Lanruo and Mu Xuewu had only eaten halfway, with many dishes still left.
As soon as she put down her bowl and chopsticks, Sang Lanruo and Mu Xuewu also involuntarily placed theirs down.
Sang Lanruo said to Mu Xuewu, "Xuewu, go serve so rice for your sister."
"It’s okay." Just as Mu Xuewu was about to move, Mu Qingge stopped her.
She pursed her lips, looked calmly at Sang Lanruo, and slowly said, "I ca tonight to tell you that tomorrow I have to go on a long journey, with no set return date. Father is safe and well with , don’t worry. And, Yichen has many people caring for him in Linchuan, no need to worry about him."
After speaking, she stood up and prepared to leave.
"Ge’er!" Sang Lanruo also stood up and called after Mu Qingge.
Mu Qingge stopped her steps but did not turn around.
Sang Lanruo choked a little as she said, "Be careful along the way, return safely."
Mu Qingge lowered her eyes slightly, nodded, and left the room, walking out of the small courtyard.
"Mother, sister is slowly accepting you, don’t be sad anymore." After Mu Qingge left, Mu Xuewu ca to Sang Lanruo’s side, helping her sit down.
Sang Lanruo shook her head slowly, worriedly saying, "I don’t care if she acknowledges or not, I’m just concerned about her safety. When you told about her situation in Linchuan, I knew this child would not have an ordinary life. But, the more extraordinary people are, the more hardships they have to endure compared to others. I’m just worried about her, I feel for her..."
"Mother, I’ll work hard and help sister out, so she doesn’t have to endure everything alone," Mu Xuewu said, her voice choked with emotion.
"Good child, good child, you are all mother’s good children." Sang Lanruo hugged Mu Xuewu, letting her lean on her shoulder, gently patting her.
Mu Qingge left the small courtyard where Sang Lanruo lived and only relaxed after walking far away.
Getting along with Sang Lanruo...
Mu Qingge shook her head with a smile, "Let it be."
She shook her sleeves and walked towards her own small courtyard.
...
The next morning, Mu Qingge set off with her people.
The route was directed by the High Priest, besides him, Mu Qingge also brought Mu Chen, Mu Peng, Jiang Li, and Yuanyuan. Six people in total, proving quality over quantity is true.
"Where exactly is Cold Inch?" On the road, Mu Qingge asked.
"In another space." The High Priest answered her.
"Young Master, I must open the passage between the Middle Ancient Realm and Cold Inch outside, and keep the passage from closing, so I can’t enter Cold Inch with you. Once inside, you’ll have to rely on yourselves!"
Mu Qingge’s eyes darkened slightly, nodding. She pondered, "If your fellow brother has also found out this clue about Cold Inch, he too will open a passage to enter Cold Inch from the Divine Demon Continent and cannot co in?"
"Correct!" The High Priest nodded.
Seeing everyone look at him, he explained briefly: "Cold Inch is an independently created space, neither belonging to the Middle Ancient Realm nor the Divine Demon Continent. Hence, conventional routes can’t reach it. My fellow brother and I can deduce its location, then use special thods to temporarily connect the two realms, which allows sending you in. However..."
He hesitated for a mont.
Mu Peng asked, "However, what?"
