Chapter 1147: Chapter 232: I’m Going to the Demon Realm

Taixuan Demon Realm!

Mu Qingge’s eyes suddenly narrowed, and her expression became very stern.

Her reaction made Xu Xiu somewhat curious, but the High Priest could guess why.

He quickly said, "Young Master, this is just a possibility, not necessarily referring to that person."

The High Priest’s reassurance also puzzled Xu Xiu. He turned his gaze to him, but at that moment, the High Priest seemed oblivious to his questioning, thinking instead about how to soothe Mu Qingge’s anxiety.

"I understand, you may leave." Mu Qingge said in a deep voice, dismissing the three.

Xu Xiu hadn’t finished his words initially. He brought up the matter intending to propose using this tribulation to strategize for the Mu Clan. However, Mu Qingge seemed uninterested in hearing his continued speech now.

Under the High Priest’s hint, he had to remain silent and leave the study.

Song Tianji also withdrew, and after they left, Mo Yang walked into the room.

"Little Lord?" Mo Yang noticed Mu Qingge’s unusual demeanor upon entering the study. Her aura was rather chilling, and she was unusually quiet.

Mu Qingge didn’t speak, but with a wave of her hand, she laid out hundreds of porcelain bottles on the desk before her.

"These contain True Dragon Blood. Take them and distribute them to the Dragon Tooth Guards and Dragon Feather Guards," Mu Qingge ordered in a deep voice. The True Dragon Blood she had refined amounted to just so much, temporarily enough only to equip the Dragon Tooth Guards and Dragon Feather Guards.

Dragons are not easy to kill.

Last time, they had a stroke of luck. Now, if they attempted to kill dragons again, the Dragon Emperor might truly go berserk. Unless presented on a silver platter, Mu Qingge wouldn’t be greedy enough to eradicate the Dragon Clan just for True Dragon Blood.

"Yes." Mo Yang put away the True Dragon Blood, continuing to stand where he was without leaving.

After a while, Mu Qingge finally raised her eyes, clear and bright, and asked him, "Is there anything else?"

Mo Yang pressed his lips together, with a calm gaze reflecting concern. "Little Lord, are you alright?"

"Me? What could be wrong with me?" Mu Qingge answered lightly.

Clearly, she didn’t want to say more.

Mo Yang sighed inwardly, having no choice but to bow and retreat. However, the concern in his eyes remained.

When only Mu Qingge was left in the study, she finally lowered her eyes, letting go of all her strength, reaching out to hold the Palace Bell at her waist in her palm.

This intricate, hollow Palace Bell hadn’t rung in a long time.

Mu Qingge knew it was because Si Mo was in seclusion, isolated from the outside world, so the Palace Bell remained silent. Yet, at this moment, staring at the Palace Bell, her heart couldn’t be calm.

Words from Elder Long Sheng, the words of the Tianlu, echoed continuously in her mind, making her uneasy.

Her only solace was that she was no longer weak. Whatever may come, she could stay beside Si Mo and face it with him.

"Life and Death Tribulation... Life and Death Tribulation... Ah Mo... I will absolutely not let anything happen to you! Absolutely not!" Mu Qingge murmured these words, her eyes shining with unwavering resolve.

...

"Who is that person?" Xu Xiu asked after walking away, stopping to look at the High Priest.

The High Priest’s mouth twitched, knowing he couldn’t conceal it. However, this matter concerned Mu Qingge personally, given her temperament, she wouldn’t permit anyone to interfere in her private affairs, so he could only say with a troubled expression, "This, the Young Master will personally inform you later."

"I noticed the Young Master’s expression is off; it seems our words greatly influenced her. Could it be that the matter foretold by the astrology concerns a friend of the Young Master?" Xu Xiu continued.

The High Priest had no choice but to maintain silence, neither confirming nor denying.

Xu Xiu stared at him, unwilling to miss any expression, and slowly said, "If it’s concerning the revival of the Mu Clan, the Young Master should speak up so we can devise a plan together."

The High Priest shook his head, saying to him, "Don’t overthink it. This matter, the Young Master will handle herself, and it’s unrelated to the Mu Clan."

"No, you’re wrong. The Young Master is the key to our Mu Clan’s revival and rise, matters concerning him are naturally related to the Mu Clan," Xu Xiu said, intending to return the same way.

"Senior Brother!" The High Priest hastily pulled him back, preventing him from going. "This matter, the Young Master will resolve."

Xu Xiu slowly shook his head, "Earlier, before the Young Master, I hadn’t finished my words. That fallen Emperor Star is closely linked to the Young Master’s Life Star. I originally thought our Mu Clan could leverage this to assist the Young Master’s fortune. But now it seems, it might adversely affect the Young Master."

"Even if so, the Young Master will decide what to do," the High Priest said sternly.

Xu Xiu squinted his eyes slightly, looking at him and asking, "Is there something else you’re hiding from me?"

The High Priest’s face changed, remaining silent.

Xu Xiu took a step towards him, speaking softly, "If there’s something the Young Master forgets to say, then it should be you who tells me. How can I correctly assist the Young Master if I’m not fully informed?"

"Those are the Young Master’s private matters, it’s inappropriate for me to speak," the High Priest said with a steady face.

"Since that’s the case, I will ask the Young Master directly," Xu Xiu said straightforwardly.

The High Priest hurriedly grabbed his sleeve, saying, "The Young Master has her plans; when the time is right, she will speak herself. Going now will only annoy the Young Master."

Xu Xiu fell silent.

Ultimately, he decided to give up. To give up questioning Mu Qingge.

In the following two days, Yin Chen didn’t return. Mu Qingge was restless, gazing up at the starry sky every night, wanting to see the Emperor Star Xu Xiu mentioned, yet amidst the vast sea of stars, she saw nothing.

Mo Yang couldn’t remember how many times he walked behind Mu Qingge this night.

But the previous times, he merely kept her company for a moment before retreating. He wanted to say something, but couldn’t utter a word.

"You keep wandering behind me; if you have anything to say, speak up," Mu Qingge suddenly said.

She didn’t move but spoke directly.

"Little Lord..."

"Mo Yang, I want to make a trip to the Demon Realm."

But before Mo Yang could speak, Mu Qingge interrupted him.

And upon hearing Mu Qingge’s wish to go to the Demon Realm, Mo Yang was shocked, lifting his lowered head to look at her, wanting to speak but refraining. Over the years, he was accustomed to obeying, never knowing how to refuse Mu Qingge.

But this time, he wanted to stop her yet couldn’t say anything.

Thousands of words swirled at his lips, yet when he did speak, it turned into a single word: "Alright."

Mu Qingge suddenly turned to look at him.

Mo Yang unconsciously straightened his chest, meeting her gaze. He spoke with a very serious tone, "Little Lord, I will accompany you."

Indeed, whatever she intends to do, as long as he can be by her side and protect her is enough.

However, Mu Qingge shook her head in refusal at his hopeful look. "No, this time, I will go alone."

"Why!" Mo Yang’s eyes widened in his heart, asking.
