2472 Taking an Even Harder Stance

Today, the little lady reduced everyone by the river into submission with her surging water spirit.

Mu Jingrui guessed that this little lass's realm and cultivation had risen.

Frankly speaking, Mu Jingrui simply dared not even think that she was a level-10 grand spiritual cultivator.

From level-14 mystic cultivator to level-10 grand spiritual cultivator in a short few months? How was that possible?

As for her talisman practitioner level, Mu Jingrui would not believe it even in death that Qiao Mu had already become a black-level grand talisman practitioner.

Ten years. She said that she only needed ten years to let all the people in the Divine Province know that there was no distinction between the Upper, Middle, and Lower domains.

Mu Jingrui inhaled deeply. His throat felt tense, and even speaking was difficult.

"To stop us from going to the Lower Star Domain, the little lady even spared no pains to construct a grand protective matrix above the Mo Kingdom capital with an immense amount of talisman energy."

How much did she dislike them!?

Mu Jingrui laughed bitterly. "Old Bai's threat completely dashed all and any favorable impressions of our Mu Clan."

"But I know that Old Bai's starting point was for the future of the Mu Clan." Mu Jingrui turned around and patted Mu Xingchen's shoulder.

"Xingchen, you don't know her temperament, while I have some insight."

"She is the type of person to take an even harder stance than the other party. She will not yield." Mu Jingrui's lips brimmed with self-mockery. "Back then when we found her, Old Bai told her to come back with a lofty attitude. The result… she was not grateful, as expected. She hated us even more on the inside."

"I know that Old Bai had a strong and deep-rooted belief in the clan system, but he didn't have any wicked thoughts. He only…"

"He only looked down on my younger sister from the bottom of his heart." Mu Xingchen posited, "He felt that my younger sister should obediently accept that olive branch that the Mu Clan handed her, and not resolutely reject it."

Mu Jingrui smiled bitterly. "Yes, he made the wrong move from the start."

"He was completely chagrined from my younger sister's rejection. He felt that she shouldn't have disobeyed the Mu Clan and disobeyed him." Mu Xingchen reprimanded, "Seventh Uncle, I truly did not know that a minor clan servant could so wantonly attempt to kill my younger sister!"

"Xingchen, he is already dead."

"Old Bai's wife and children are still in the Mu Estate, right."

"Xingchen…" Mu Jingrui was stunned. He suddenly regretted telling this child.

This child wasn't going to take his anger out on Old Bai's family, right?

Mu Jingrui felt his throat go dry. He sighed and said, "Let bygones be bygones. Moreover, Old Bai did not get the upper hand at all. I suspect that your younger sister is able to draw the deity-inviting talisman. Back then when that man surrounded with peach blossoms appeared, he made Old Bai, a level-11 grand spiritual cultivator, self-detonate with a single finger!"

"This goes to show that his realm and cultivation is extremely incredible. I suspect him to be an expert in the venerable immortal realm."

Mu Xingchen's eyes lit up. "Deity-inviting talisman?"

The Mu Clan ancestors' ancient texts did indeed record unordinary talismans like these, but the runes had gotten lost with the passage of time. It was simply impossible to piece them together.

Mu Jingrui nodded with a bitter smile. "The little lady's future is limitless. It was also my fault back then for failing to stop Old Bai from acting rashly. This caused the little lady's misunderstanding toward our Mu Clan to deepen even more."
