Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

It seemed that the new Heavenly Heart Technique had also caused her Heavenly Heart Energy to undergo a qualitative change. The miracle ability to absorb the power of all things for her own use had also become much stronger.

The Heavenly Star Power left behind by Mu Tianlie gathered together like a huge nebula. On the outermost periphery of the nebula, a small cluster of ethereal Heavenly Star Power was enveloped within Mu Hanyan’s Qi.

As the cultivation technique circulated, that Qi kept rotating and cycling. With every cycle, a portion of the Heavenly Star Power was refined into Qi. Mu Hanyan’s strength also began to rise at a speed she could perceive.

Given her talent enhanced by Star Illusion Thousand Machine Pulse Cutting Marrow Washing, the higher her cultivation, the more difficult it was to improve. Ordinarily, after advancing to Great Sword Master, her progress should have been slower than before. Yet now, Mu Hanyan clearly felt that her strength was improving at a speed not inferior to when she was a Ninth-Order Swordsman, it was even slightly faster.

Before she knew it, that small cluster of ethereal Heavenly Star Power was completely refined by Mu Hanyan. She withdrew her Qi and wiped the sweat from her forehead.

Although her Heavenly Heart Technique had improved to another level after integrating the inherited skills of the Yan Family, the Heavenly Star Power left by Mu Tianlie was still overwhelmingly powerful, and she could only just manage to absorb and refine it. Moreover, the closer to the center of the nebula-like gathering of Heavenly Star Power, the more concentrated and powerful it became. She wasn’t able to fully utilize it all in a short time.

After checking, she found that her strength as a recently promoted Great Sword Master had been completely solidified with a slight improvement. Compared to normal cultivation, it was countless times faster, and Mu Hanyan was very satisfied with this.

By relying on the treasure left by Mu Tianlie, she believed she could reach the Sword Master Realm before the age of sixteen, so Mu Hanyan was not in a rush for the moment. The path of cultivation values a controlled approach, avoiding forced growth at all costs. While shortcuts are available, there are times when it is necessary to pause. This is essential, not only for establishing a solid foundation but also for tempering one’s character.

Opening the door, she realized it had gotten cooler outside. Mu Hanyan subconsciously drew her collar closer. Looking up, she saw her father standing right in front of her.

”Dad, what brings you here again?” Mu Hanyan asked in surprise.

Usually, to keep up appearances, Mu Rui’an always put on a cold demeanor, hardly speaking to her for most of the year. Having just visited the day before, wasn’t his visit today a bit too frequent?

”What do you mean, ’again’? Do you have any idea how long you’ve been cultivating? A whole seven days, your mother has been nearly worried sick,” Mu Rui’an said with a stern face.

Only then did Mu Hanyan notice Yue Fanling, looking haggard, standing behind Mu Rui’an.

”Ah, Mom! Come in and sit down.” Seeing the weary Yue Fanling, Mu Hanyan quickly pulled her inside with concern.

Mu Rui’an followed them in and closed the door. Looking at Mu Hanyan, Yue Fanling touched her daughter’s face, filled with distress, and asked, ”Why did you cultivate for so long this time? Are you hungry? I’ve had food prepared.”

”I’m not hungry, this cultivation session was very beneficial,” Mu Hanyan replied with a broad smile. ”Don’t worry, Mom. Look at me, fit and strong, eating well.”

”I know you’re strong as an ox now. But you’ve made your mother worry so much this time! Look, you’ve aged her by several years,” Mu Rui’an also chided his daughter with concern. His daughter was precious, but his wife was even more so!

”Hey! Mom, look how Dad is complaining about you aging,” Mu Hanyan teased, feeling the sweetness of her parents’ love was almost too much to bear. Big playboy Mu was displeased, and of course, she had to take the opportunity to cause a little mischief. Hmph, don’t they know lovey-dovey displays never last long, Dad, haven’t you learned that lesson yet?
