Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 16: Chapter 16: Grandfather and Grandchild’s Night Talk (Part 2)

”Existing for a thousand years! Isn’t that an old monster who hasn’t died in a thousand years!” Mu Ge exclaimed in surprise. In his mind, he really couldn’t connect that immortal figure with a thousand-year-old demon.

”Why are you so surprised?” Mu Xiong was about to knock on Mu Ge’s head again but the latter swiftly dodged.

”But you can’t cultivate, so it’s understandable that you don’t know much about this.” Mu Xiong said longingly, ”On the Linchuan Continent, cultivation methods are distinguished by seven colors, you know that. Red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple, with the Red Realm being the lowest and the Purple Realm the strongest. Generally speaking, as long as one isn’t a wastrel, they can easily enter the Red Realm. Those with some talent can continue to break through, while those with poor talent can only linger in the Red Realm.”

As Mu Xiong spoke, he secretly observed his grandson’s expression, and seeing that he didn’t show any signs of discouragement, he continued: ”The closer you get to the Purple Realm, the harder it is to cultivate. As far as I know, in our Qin Country and the nearby Tu Country, Yu Country, and Ba Country, the number of experts who have reached the Purple Realm can be counted on ten fingers. In Qin Country, only one tributor from the Imperial Family has reached the initial rank of the Purple Realm. However, once you enter the Purple Realm, a person’s lifespan will increase several times. A normal person can live to be around one hundred and twenty or thirty, but a Purple Realm expert can live to be eight or nine hundred. If they’re at the peak of the Purple Realm, living to a thousand years old is not a problem, and their appearance can remain youthful forever.”

”So, the Holy King must be a peak Purple Realm expert.” Mu Ge said thoughtfully, rubbing his chin with his fingertips.

Recalling their first meeting, the shock that guy brought her was indeed that of a super expert. It’s likely that her grandfather, with his high rank in the Blue Realm, wouldn’t be a match for even one of his two subordinates.

At the same time, Mu Ge also understood what a high-ranking Blue Realm person, who was embraced by the military, meant to the Qin Country’s Imperial Family.

Currently, the Mu Mansion seems peaceful, but beneath the surface, there are countless undercurrents.

Mu Xiong nodded: ”The Holy King is undoubtedly a peak Purple Realm expert. I even suspect that he has long surpassed the peak of the Purple Realm. You know, the Six-winged Gale Dragon Leopard doesn’t even belong to this continent. Our acquaintance is precisely because of the Holy King.”

Mu Xiong referred to him as ”old man” so frequently that Mu Ge’s mouth twitched uncontrollably.

”Grandfather, why can’t I cultivate?” Suddenly, Mu Ge changed the subject, bringing the conversation back to herself.

Mu Xiong was startled, his expression darkening immediately. Yet he forced a smile, comforting Mu Ge by saying: ”It’s alright, Ge’er, even if you can’t cultivate, you’re still the young lord of the Mu Mansion, and the future Everlasting Peace Duke.”

”Grandfather.” Mu Ge frowned, for she wasn’t looking for comforting words; she wanted to find out why she couldn’t cultivate.

However, Mu Xiong was unwilling to continue discussing the topic, only patting her shoulder and saying: ”Ge’er, some things are predestined. Just consider it as heaven’s punishment for grandfather’s lifetime of killing.”

”...” Mu Ge remained silent.

”Oh, by the way, that scoundrel from the He Family, I’ve tied him up in the mansion. If it weren’t for his nonsense in front of you, you wouldn’t have acted recklessly. After you return, feel free to vent your anger, but don’t kill him.” Mu Xiong suddenly said.

Mu Ge was taken aback, but didn’t respond.

Without explanation, she knew that person with the surname He was the one who goaded her into going to the Sunset Wilderness. Originally, she planned to take revenge personally after returning, but unexpectedly, Mu Xiong had already tied him up.

”Ge’er, regarding this matter, I’m very saddened, but your decision today makes me very proud. This event has made you grow up. Alright, get some rest. After you return, avoid associating with Prince Rui. Our Mu Family disdains getting involved with the unsavory affairs of the Imperial Family.” After saying this, Mu Xiong stood up and walked out of the tent, leaving Mu Ge alone.

As soon as Mu Xiong left, Mu Qingge’s spirit appeared.

In fact, she had been by Mu Ge’s side the entire time, just as she had said, invisible to everyone except Mu Ge.

”You are more like a member of the Mu Family than I am.” Mu Qingge said softly, gazing in the direction Mu Xiong had left. She had to admit, she was shocked when Mu Ge calmly accepted punishment and even asked for more to comfort the spirits.

It was only when she saw the relief in her grandfather’s eyes that she realized how misguided her past actions were. The heir of the Mu Family is not an arrogant and domineering playboy, but someone who stands tall, unyielding and resilient. Even though she cannot cultivate, doomed to be a wastrel.

”The old man doesn’t know your true identity?” Mu Ge ignored Mu Qingge’s words and raised an eyebrow.

Mu Qingge remained silent for a while before saying: ”Grandfather has always thought I was the male grandson of the Mu Family.”
