Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 553: Chapter 197: It’s Good to Have a Powerhouse at Your Back! (2 Updates)

”How have I offended you? You? I wouldn’t even look at you!”

A mocking cold shout descended from the sky.

It made everyone present suddenly look up.

This voice was about seventy to eighty percent familiar, yet twenty to thirty percent unfamiliar. The tone carried a wild and lazy air, but belonged to a woman.

However, upon hearing this voice, the Dragon Tooth Guards all got excited.

Is their young lord planning to reveal his true face?

Emma, they feel like they’re about to feast their eyes, what to do?

Zhao Nanxing had seen Mu Qingge in women’s clothing and heard her voice before, so after the initial unfamiliarity, he quickly reacted—it faintly surprised him, yet he stayed calm.

Silently swallowing an elixir to heal, he saw Feng Yufei looking confused and kindly handed her a calming pill.

Feng Yufei took it without understanding why Zhao Nanxing was giving her such an elixir for calming nerves at this time.

Jiang Li recognized the speaker upon hearing it.

In fact, ignoring the tone and sound, who else but Mu Qingge could say such words?

Her golden eyes carried a smile.

This scene fell into the eyes of Han Caicai beside her, whose narrow eyes flashed with brilliance, as if a certain suspicion in his heart was confirmed at this moment.

He abruptly looked up, eyes wide, staring at the slowly disappearing grotesque mouth in the sky.

’He is female! She is female! It’s true!’

At this moment, Han Caicai felt his heart pounding violently, roaring endlessly in his mind.

The rest, regarding the voice’s owner, had a sort of sense of ambiguity. Literarily, the speaker’s words were clearly directed at Lan Feiyue.

It should undoubtedly be Mu Qingge, this young lord of the Third-class Country, but the voice was unmistakably a woman’s, how could that be?

In an instant, injured or not, everyone focused their attention on the giant maw in the sky.

Even the Great Sacrificial Officer of the Imperial Family and the old patriarch of the Lan Family were no exception.

But the Lan Family patriarch did not notice the drastic changes in Lan Feiyue’s expression.

If the speaker is indeed Mu Qingge, then he... no, she...

Above the sky at the Imperial Palace Forbidden Area, the torn grotesque wound slowly healed and faded. The Trial Space, nearly collapsing, seemed to calm down after expelling a ’thing’ that should not have existed.

When the last trace of tear faded and disappeared, two figures appeared under everyone’s gaze!

One in red and one in white, tall and graceful, both extraordinarily beautiful, their presence together unbelievably harmonious.

Everyone was stunned, immediately recognizing the person in white.

Upon recognition, whether Royals, the Four Great Families, or people from the Myriad Beasts Sect, Refining Tower, or the Second-class Country, their expressions changed dramatically, they all knelt and humbly prostrated themselves, shouting: ”Holy King Your Majesty—!”

Even the domineering Lan Family patriarch refrained his sharpness, pulling Lan Feiyue down together to kneel with the Great Sacrificial Officer of the Imperial Family.

Lan Family’s previous arrogance was built on a mistaken evaluation of Mu Qingge.

Especially the Lan Family patriarch, who did not believe the Holy King, always aloof and indifferent to the world’s affairs, would pay much attention to an insignificant figure.

To him, it was merely an opportunity for those with ulterior motives to try and cling to the Holy King.

The Lan Family’s actions were intended to handle rebels on behalf of the Holy King.

Even if the Holy King were to get angry, after the anger subsided, he would naturally remember the good done by the Lan Family. From then on, the Lan Family would rise smoothly, securing its position as the top family in Linchuan.

But now...

Suddenly, he realized he was wrong.

A terrifying conclusion spread from the bottom of his heart, sending a chill down the Lan Family patriarch’s spine.

Si Mo’s appearance was not unfamiliar to these forces.

Even if the Dragon Tooth Guards of Mu Qingge had never truly seen Si Mo, upon hearing other’s address, they were also stunned and knelt without further ado.

When these two figures appeared, two black shadows also appeared on each side, standing behind them as guards.

The newcomers were even more familiar, being the two Black Servant Lords who had accompanied the Holy King at the Li Palace for years.

”Master, everyone who should be here has come.” Gu Ye behind Si Mo spoke softly.

As his words fell, a figure fell from nowhere, rolling into the Lan Family’s formation.

Everyone looked intently, and it turned out to be the Lan Family’s head.

”Father!” Lan Feiyue wanted to reach out to pull her father from his sorry state but was stopped by her great-grandfather, preventing her from acting on her own.

Si Mo glanced coolly at the pallid-faced Lan Family head, snorted lightly, ”Hmm.”

At this point, only one person on the ground remained unbowed.

That was Han Caicai.

Si Mo noticed this Young Master from the Wanxiang Building, who was looking not at him but at the exquisite beauty beside him. A subtle displeasure from someone carefully protecting their treasure being scrutinized made Si Mo’s expression colder. His amber eyes narrowed slightly, and Han Caicai standing on the ground felt his shoulders sink, the ground beneath him even crumbling slightly.

Beside him, Jiang Li saw his legs trembling, lifting her eyes to look at him. She saw his pale face, cold sweat streaming as he pursed his lips, enduring.

It seemed he was unwilling to kneel before this recognized number one in Linchuan in front of Mu Qingge.

Han Caicai was enduring with great difficulty, his Spiritual Power seemingly confined, unable to circulate, relying only on his tenacity to persevere.

This change shifted his gaze from beside Mu Qingge to Si Mo. His narrow eyes conveyed persistence and defiance, as if challenging Si Mo.

Mu Qingge had truly stunned him, even though he had imagined how she would look in women’s clothing.

However, when witnessing it firsthand, he still felt a soul-shaking sensation.

Mu Qingge was such a woman, irrelevant of beauty or otherwise, he was unwilling to easily give up, even knowing his opponent was formidable!

Han Caicai gritted his teeth, his eyes sharply looking over at Si Mo.

Si Mo’s eyes narrowed slightly, the corners of his mouth faintly curving upwards, exerting even more pressure on Han Caicai’s shoulders.

Finally, Han Caicai’s knee joint issued a crisp ’crack’ sound, his body tilted, and he knelt on one knee.

Even if his eyes were filled with unwillingness and defiance, he still knelt.

At the moment he knelt, he seemed to see Si Mo’s triumphant smile.

The movements of the man beside her were something Mu Qingge could hardly ignore. Moreover, Si Mo hadn’t intended to hide it from her.

Feeling Mu Qingge’s gaze, he calmly answered softly: ”With this appearance, it won’t be abrupt.”

Mu Qingge twitched her mouth at his reply.

Everyone was kneeling on the ground, thousands crowded together, and Han Caicai’s kneeling made the lone discord suddenly coordinated.

This hidden contest, while long in description, actually happened only in an instant.

Han Caicai’s experience was discerned by no one except Jiang Li beside him. Even those who saw mostly just assumed the Young Master had knelt a beat too late.

The long-awaited Holy King Your Majesty, they finally saw in person.

But—

Who was the stunningly beautiful woman beside him, dimming the brilliance of heaven and earth?

That bewitching red attire, why did it feel so familiar?

And where was Mu Qingge, this young lord?

Many attempted to find clues from the extraordinarily beautiful face, but when their gaze meticulously traced the woman’s flawless features, the result was a shock that scattered their souls!

A cascade of ink-like black hair tumbling down, brows like distant mountains balanced perfectly, eyes that captivated and enthralled, a delicate nose, cheeks slightly flushed, lips as red as cherries, an oval face as lustrous as jade, complexion as bright as snow, figure graceful and slender, elegance beyond compare.

In the fleeting moment of a glance, there was an innate wild and arrogant air that was yet not off-putting. The heroic spirit between her brows softened her feminine delicacy, instead adding a touch of brisk elegance that dared not be underestimated.

Standing beside the Holy King Your Majesty, there wasn’t the slightest sense of being overshadowed, the breath between them blended in a way that felt intertwined and rising together.

The blazing red attire was a style everyone remembered. Yet the numerous damages upon it seemed to silently recount the harrowing battle its owner had just experienced.

With ink-black hair and a crimson dress, she possessed a beauty unparalleled, a beauty that was shockingly captivating, too dazzling to be gazed upon directly.

That face, that face... Slowly, in countless minds, it melded with Mu Qingge’s face, which was equally extraordinarily beautiful yet devoid of any softness.

The two combined, and the answer was self-evident!

’How can this be!’

’Oh my! Has the sky fallen?’

’Am I seeing things, or am I dreaming?’

After the shock of her beauty, everyone felt like they had been struck by lightning on a sunny day and pierced by thousands of arrows.

Huangfu Huan stood frozen, somewhat at a loss.

Huangfu Haotian’s eyes narrowed, as if he had glimpsed the true reason the Holy King protected Mu Qingge so fervently.

Feng Yufei was somewhat dazed, seemingly unable to believe his own eyes.

Shen Bicheng leaned weakly against his father, holding his breath at the sight of Mu Qingge dressed as a woman, his eyes glowing intensely. Yet, his intensity wasn’t admiration, but a powerful resolve to defeat her.

Had he lost to a woman? This would fuel his motivation for a long time to come.

”Heavens! Mu Little Lord is actually a woman?”

”Oh dear heavens, if a woman is so formidable, how are we men supposed to live? Begging for salvation!”

”Boohoohoo...”

”Why are you crying?”

”Mu Little Lord is a woman, yet she lives more splendidly than we big men. I really lived in vain!”

A woman! A woman! Mu Qingge is a woman!

When this news spreads, the entire Linchuan might as well quake. Her name, Mu Qingge, has spread far beyond just third-class countries now.

In contrast to the shock of the crowd, the Dragon Tooth Guards felt proud.

The more astonished the world was by Mu Qingge, the prouder they felt. Of course, if anyone dared to disrespect Mu Qingge, they would be treated like a mortal enemy.

This shared honor and disgrace had long since seeped into their bones.

It had been well demonstrated in the prior battle.

”How could she be a woman? Mother, I don’t believe it, I don’t believe it!” Hua Qinxin’s heart shattered into pieces, and she rushed into her mother’s arms, crying.

Was she the only one?

When Mu Qingge was disguised as a man, she had unknowingly stirred the hearts of countless women. Now that the truth was laid bare, it was so cruel, akin to heartbreak and shattered dreams.

Oh, they too wanted to cry, didn’t they?

”How could she possibly be a woman!” Taishi Gao looked at Mu Qingge in shock, regretful glances in his frivolous eyes.

If he had known Mu Qingge was a woman, why would he have been so aggressive in pressing her? With some effort, he could have had the beauty in his arms, and wouldn’t all she had be his?

”A woman! No, how could it be? Totally impossible! I am the first beauty of Tiandu, I am the first beauty of Linchuan!” Lan Feiyue was overwhelmed by Mu Qingge’s stunning female garb, jealousy like a madness erupted within her. She was hateful, unwilling, mad with jealousy!

Those amazed gazes should belong to her!

Not to Mu Qingge, this androgynous being!

Her already flawed face appeared even more sinister and terrifying.

Upon hearing her mad words, many looked at her and then took one more glance at Mu Qingge, reluctantly retracting their gaze, silently saying in their hearts—

’Well, indeed the title of Tiandu’s first beauty, Linchuan’s first beauty ought to change.’

In front of Mu Qingge, they realized that even if Lan Feiyue’s looks were intact, she’d appear like a dull pearl compared to her.

What does it mean for stars to compete with a bright moon?

They truly understood it now.

On the scene, if they had to pick a woman to compare with Mu Little Lord, it could only be the Empress Jiang of the Ancient Witch Country.

However, Empress Jiang’s beauty carried a certain exotic allure, though captivating, it still fit within the framework of femininity. Unlike Mu Little Lord, who was so versatile, both masculine and feminine, both offensive and defensive!

As a man, he made all other men seem dull.

As a woman, she absorbed all the brilliance of other women as the scorching sun does the cold moon.

No wonder the Holy King didn’t fancy Lan Feiyue from the Lan Family. With such a gem as Mu Little Lord before him, what other woman could catch His Majesty’s eye?

Suddenly, everyone felt a wave of gossip in their hearts, all speculating about the relationship between Mu Qingge and Si Mo.

Did the Holy King favor Mu Little Lord for her talent, or... perhaps her allure?

Ah, the nature of men.

It was understood, understood.

They expressed deep understanding for the feelings of His Majesty, this eternal bachelor.

After giving the crowd a moment to digest, Si Mo took Mu Qingge’s hand and descended gracefully with her.

This action prompted many to narrow their eyes.

As if this gesture conveyed a crucial message, everyone who understood knew that from now on, Mu Qingge would be someone no one dared to provoke across the entire Linchuan Continent!

Even if she exterminated your whole family, if you didn’t want to die and end your family’s line, you could only endure it silently, even applaud her!

Under the powerful punch, all reasoning appeared feeble.

Besides, standing next to Mu Qingge was the strongest fist. If he got angry, Linchuan would likely be reduced to rubble!

Where the sky met the ground, it seemed an invisible step was provided for the two to descend hand in hand.

When they both set foot on the ground, those kneeling in the crowd unknowingly retreated, leaving an open space, refusing to approach or desecrate.

The head of the Jing Family silently rejoiced in his heart, grateful his son wasn’t a hot-headed fool! After curbing his arrogance, he finally understood what it meant to endure.

Jing Tian had already recounted his two encounters with Mu Qingge in the Trial Space to him in detail.

In his view, Jing Tian handled it well.

Now, seeing the Holy King’s attitude toward Mu Qingge in person, he felt Jing Tian’s actions were incredibly wise! This way, the Jing Family could avoid an unwarranted disaster!

Others slowly retreated, but people from the Lan Family, Myriad Beasts Sect, and Refining Tower dared not move.

Because two terrifying auras were fixating on each of them.

If they weren’t mistaken, the owners of these terrifying auras came from the Black Servant Lord behind the Holy King.

Si Mo’s gesture of holding Mu Qingge’s hand seemed to provoke Lan Feiyue. She actually shouted hysterically, ”It’s you! It’s you, this vixen, seducing the Holy King! The Holy King is mine, mine!”

This statement caused everyone from the Lan Family to turn pale collectively.

Even the Lan Family ancestor wished he could slap Lan Feiyue to death for her inadequacies and failures.

One could say, the more hope the Lan Family once placed on her, the more disappointment they felt now!

Moreover, a layer of frost had already covered Si Mo’s face.

This madwoman dared to insult his Little Ge’er like this right in front of him!

Si Mo’s eyes turned sharp, and Lan Feiyue’s clothing exploded, revealing her white and delicate skin.

”Ah——!” Lan Feiyue shrieked, frantically trying to cover herself, yet unable to obscure anything.

She thus exposed her never-before-seen body to all, in the cruelest and most terrifying manner possible for a woman.

The women of the Hua Family were so frightened that they turned pale, retreating continuously, tightly clutching their collars, fearing the same fate as Lan Feiyue.

People from the Lan Family dared not offer Lan Feiyue a covering, fearing that any movement might provoke Si Mo, with themselves paying the cost.

Even the Lan Family ancestor clenched his teeth and closed his eyes.

The head of the Lan Family sank to the ground like a puddle of soft mud, eyes vacant.

”Clothes! Give me clothes!” Lan Feiyue screamed, her savage expression growing more frantic.

The faint chill of her skin and those eyes falling upon her body were enough to drive her crazy.

Even though her face was ruined, that captivating body still sparked wicked thoughts in some people. Those rampant stares, brazen stares, filled with lasciviousness, all fell upon Lan Feiyue.

Mu Qingge raised her eyebrows and looked at Si Mo, seeing his amber eyes calm without any change due to Lan Feiyue, she felt a secret joy in her heart.

She knew Si Mo was punishing Lan Feiyue.

Using the way a woman fears the most, the most humiliating way to punish is simply more terrifying than killing her with a sword or executing her by dismembering.

She saw Lan Feiyue’s body trembling in fear, wanting to hide out of shame and anger.

Unfortunately, she could only stand like this in front of everyone, to be appreciated, unable to leave.

Si Mo’s casual move certainly deserved the word ’ruthless’.

”Does Ge’er want her to die?” Si Mo suddenly turned his gaze to her and asked.

The casual tone seemed akin to asking what to have for dinner tonight.

This pampering inquiry fell into the hearts of those present, causing them to shiver. They both anticipated Mu Qingge’s answer and wondered if she would show a ruthless side under the Holy King’s presence.

After all, most men adored gentle, water-like women.

The Holy King was already so mighty, his favorite woman should be gentle, kind, magnanimous, and understanding!

Yet, they forgot that Mu Qingge had never been a gentle or kind person.

Of course, nor was she magnanimous!

Avenging every grievance was her law of survival! Especially, in this Otherworld where power established rules, this law became more profound.

If someone provokes her, wanting to kill, has never been let off!

Mu Qingge’s mouth lifted, revealing a meaningful smile.

She raised her hand, within which lay a pill as beautiful as a flower bud.

”This is called Beauty Face. Whoever consumes it will feel unbearable pain and itch beneath their skin, then peel off their skin with their own hands and eventually die. The person dies, but the skin remains, hence it’s called Beauty Face. Since you love beauty, I think it is the most fitting fate for you.” Mu Qingge explained the purpose of the pill in a rather relaxed voice to Lan Feiyue.

Lan Feiyue listened in horror, her eyes filled with fear. She shook her head and retreated constantly.

The Lan family members were furious but did not dare to speak, only used their eyes to cut her down.

The Lan family’s ancestor trembled all over, shouting at her: ”You, with such a venomous heart, brutally cold woman, how are you fit to serve the Holy King!”

Indeed! Too cruel!

Even if Lan Feiyue deserved it, such a death makes these men shiver, let alone a beauty-loving woman?

Those who don’t understand Mu Qingge think she’s cruel. Even the Hua Family lady, who once admired her and swore to marry none but her, was pale-faced, shrinking in Mu Qingge’s embrace, looking at the Beauty Face in her palm, with terror in her heart.

Yet, those who understand Mu Qingge immediately think this is normal.

Lan Feiyue should die in such a way!

These people, like Zhao Nanxing, like Feng Yufei, like Han Caicai, like Jiang Li, and even the Dragon Tooth Guards...

To attack the enemy, one must strike at their weak points. Destroy what they care about, first crush their spirit, then take their life, is naturally Mu Qingge’s rhythm of punishing bastards.

Many looked at Si Mo.

They were guessing if the Holy King would change his view or become dissatisfied with Mu Xiao’s cruel words.

But, they likewise overlooked, that the Holy King in their hearts was merely in their hearts. The real Si Mo had never been known.

”Venomous heart? Brutal coldness? Serve?” Mu Qingge playfully repeated the words of the Lan family’s ancestor.

She looked at Si Mo, raised her eyebrow and asked: ”Am I venomous-hearted? Brutally cold?”

Si Mo looked at her, without any anger, and displayed his indulgence of her in front of the world. ”To me, Ge’er is too kind. That is why these people dare to bully you. In the future, don’t be so soft-hearted. To deal with enemies, you must strike them so hard that they won’t dare to oppose you in their next life; eradicate them.”

Is this still called soft-hearted?! Is this still called kind?

Holy King, has your value system been bent by Mu Xiao?

Everyone gasped!

You are strong, you are capricious, what else can we say? Silently watch the show...

Huangfu Haotian and Huangfu Huan exchanged a glance, both feeling a bit apprehensive.

If something truly happened to Mu Qingge, the consequences... just thinking of it made the back of their necks feel cold!

”I serve you?” Mu Qingge raised her eyebrows, a hint of coldness in her smile.

Si Mo raised his eyebrows, shook his head and said: ”No, I pamper you.”

Si Mo’s answer broke everyone’s jaw on the ground.

Is this still the Holy King they know? Where is their cold and aloof Holy King? Please come back, ah ah ah ah!

Not only were the bystanders stunned, but the three major forces involved in hunting down Mu Qingge were also shocked.

Given the Holy King’s current demonstration of protection, they could almost foresee their own miserable demise.

The Lan family’s ancestor’s facial muscles twitched violently, he could only glare fiercely at Mu Qingge, not knowing what to say.

Mu Qingge lightly lifted her chin, put away her smile, and called: ”Gu Ya.”

Gu Ya? The name of the Black Servant!

She actually dared to call the Black Servant by name?

You must know, how long has the Black Servant served under the Holy King, how can a new pet compare? Would the Black Servant buy it?

Just as many awaited seeing Mu Qingge slapped in the face, the Black Servant, likewise the cold and impartial representative in their hearts, walked out from the back and approached her.

”Young Master.” Gu Ya’s respectful demeanor was exactly the same as when facing Si Mo.

Gu Ya’s attitude once again drew the crowd’s breath.

What is this? The Black Servant recognized Mu Xiao’s identity? Moreover, observing their interaction, it seems they were not just acquainted!

Mu Qingge tossed the Beauty Face in her hand to Gu Ya.

Gu Ya raised his hand and caught it, understanding her meaning. He did not ask further, directly approaching the retreating, fear-encased Lan Feiyue.

The bare skin, in Gu Ya’s eyes, appeared no different than a fleshy skeleton.

”No, I won’t! I won’t eat it, you go away!” Lan Feiyue resisted and waved her hand, completely forgetting to cover her private parts.

In an instant, everything of hers was exposed completely in front of people.

Even if she didn’t die, she’s ruined, utterly ruined!

But was her resistance useful?

Gu Ya personally moved, and the Lan family’s ancestor could only be a turtle with a retracted head. That’s why Mu Qingge didn’t use her own Dragon Tooth Guards, but the people of Si Mo.

In such a face-slapping occasion, using Gu Ya and Gu Ye has much better effects.

”No——! Holy King, save me——! Save Feiyue——! Sob–sob——!” Lan Feiyue was fixed in place by Gu Ya’s aura.

Her mouth was forced open. Gu Ya flicked his finger, and the Beauty Face pill in his hand fell into Lan Feiyue’s mouth.

”Cough cough.” The drug dissolved instantly upon entering her mouth.

Even if Lan Feiyue regained her ability to move, it was to no avail.

Gu Ya completed the task, turned around and left, returning to where he originally stood, as if he had never moved.

Lan Feiyue fell to the ground, clawing her throat, wanting to vomit up the Beauty Face she ingested, but apart from increasing her discomfort, it was of no use.

Unable to save herself, Lan Feiyue could only plead with her great-grandfather. She crawled to the Lan family’s ancestor, grasping his brocade robe and begging: ”Great-grandfather, save me! Save Feiyue!”

The Holy King was present, and the person who acted was the Black Servant.

What could the Lan family’s ancestor do? Moreover, now, Lan Feiyue in his eyes was just a useless tool, a catastrophe bringing ruin to the family.

If he didn’t kill her himself, it was already considered good.

Lan Feiyue pleaded bitterly, at this time Mu Qingge again took out a pill, carefully examining it and said: ”Beauty Face has a little time before it takes effect, let’s not waste this time. I have another pill named Inch Break, Gu Ye, help me send this to the Young Sect Master Taishi, help me appraise it.”

Mu Qingge finished speaking, and Gu Ye silently walked over, taking the black pill from her hand and heading towards Taishi Gao.

”No! It’s not my business!” Taishi Gao was shocked, hiding among the experts of the Myriad Beasts Sect, seeking protection.

However, like the Lan Family Ancestor, who would dare oppose the Black Servant under the Holy King? Even Hei Mu tried hard to lower his presence, retreating to the side.

Exposed in front of Gu Ye without protection, Taishi Gao gave a chilling sensation, colder and more unfeeling than Gu Ya.

He roughly shoved the elixir into Taishi Gao’s mouth.

”Gag~!” The pill, with a foul smell, was swallowed by Taishi Gao. Like Lan Feiyue, his first thought was to dig it out.

Mu Qingge smiled faintly and slowly said, ”It’s called Inch Break because it can make a person’s bones break into inches, then the meridians, and finally the muscles. When your insides are nothing but mush, you’ll be dead.” She was determined to personally kill Taishi Gao and Lan Feiyue.

As her voice fell, Taishi Gao’s whole body stiffened.

He could hardly imagine his impending misery.

Taishi Gao knelt in front of Mu Qingge, continuously kowtowing and begging, ”Young Lord Mu, I was blind to Mount Tai, spare me! Don’t hold it against a lowly ant like me, give me a way to live!”

He was quite clever, knowing who to plead with at this time.

However, how could Mu Qingge easily alter her principles? If a few words of pleading could change her mind, she wouldn’t have survived this long.

She ignored Taishi Gao’s pleas and Lan Feiyue’s hateful gaze when help was no longer an option.

The timing of Mu Qingge’s poisoning was perfect; they both started to suffer almost simultaneously.

”Ah—!”

”Ah—!”

Taishi Gao and Lan Feiyue fell to the ground in pain, rolling and writhing.

The Imperial Palace Forbidden Area was silent, everyone watching with chills, holding their breath.

They could only watch Lan Feiyue, under the effect of Beauty Face, painfully rubbing her flesh, crazily tearing at her own skin as if trying to escape this body.

The scent of blood began to spread, and a terrifying scene unfolded before their eyes.

On the other side, Taishi Gao also curled up in agony, but people could hear the crisp sound of bones breaking and see the broken bones piercing through his skin, exposed outside.

This death was unbearably painful and prolonged.

At this moment, those who didn’t know much about Mu Qingge once again reconsidered their understanding of her.

Xue Qiong stood in the Yu Country’s ranks, silently watching everything. His face pale, yet when he looked at Mu Qingge’s profile, he found her expression unchanged.

It seemed as if she was long accustomed to such scenes.

When looking at the Holy King, there wasn’t the slightest sense of cruelty. His eyes, impossible to meet directly, were fixed on Mu Qingge, as if she was the only one who could pique his interest.

Suddenly, a thought crossed Xue Qiong’s mind.

That was, if Mu Qingge wanted to become the Empress of Linchuan, the Holy King would probably fulfill her wish!

Such a person...

The Xue Family absolutely cannot offend!

Xue Qiong took a deep breath, tightly pressed his lips, and made a silent decision.

Once back in Yu Country, he must ensure his family treats Mu Qingge’s aunt well, their daughter-in-law from the Xue Family!

Forging a bond with Mu Qingge through this relationship would be an opportunity for the Xue Family.

This drama had some seeing Mu Qingge as ruthless, while others praised her actions!

Likewise, those who thought she was ruthless didn’t know her well, and those who applauded her were her friends and allies.

Gu Ya and Gu Ye watched the tragedy of Taishi Gao and Lan Feiyue in silence, seemingly unfazed.

It was as if Mu Qingge’s methods befitted their master!

Jiang Li looked at the silent Han Caicai, maliciously asking, ”Don’t you think it’s cruel?”

Unexpectedly, Han Caicai sneered, her long eyes flashing fiercely. ”Cruel? If it were me, my methods would be even more vicious!”

Jiang Li’s mouth twitched, her eyes rolling. She silently thought, ’Is there a need to be so competitive?’

She recalled Mu Qingge mentioning how she met Han Caicai.

When together, they were always competing, never satisfied with each other.

However, Jiang Li sincerely told Mu Qingge that Han Caicai harbored ill intentions towards her.

Well... she was secretly curious. If the Holy King were absent, what kind of sparks would fly between these two similar people?

However, she’d never say this out loud for fear of being smacked by the Holy King into another world!

Uh, considering the risk to her life.

It’s best to keep her curiosity in check.

Zhao Nanxing gawked and said, ”What’s going on? Since when did Qingge and the Holy King get together?”

Feng Yufei glanced at him, ”Does Young Lord need to report her relationship to anyone?”

Zhao Nanxing’s mouth twitched, speechless.

He was too shocked by this news, thinking of a senior brother in the Yu Country Medicine Tower Branch who had once been interested in Mu Qingge, and he lit a candle for Mei Zizhong in his heart, ’Alas! Brother Mei, it’s not that I can’t help you! The rival is just too formidable, better find another beautiful lady!’

The experiences of Taishi Gao and Lan Feiyue felt eternal.

However, for others, it was just the span of an incense stick before the two were dead and gone.

A beautiful person had their skin ruined, the skin, personally peeled off by Lan Feiyue, was discarded next to her skeleton. Taishi Gao was unrecognizable, like a heap of mud.

Such a vicious and powerful poison, this was the first time everyone had seen it.

Now, looking at Mu Qingge, their eyes filled with fear.

From amazement to shock to fear, Mu Qingge reshaped her image in people’s hearts in less than an hour.

With Taishi Gao and Lan Feiyue dead, Si Mo glanced lightly, ”Huangfu Haotian.”

Huangfu Haotian started, quickly stepping out and kneeling with extreme respect. At this point, he had no trace of an emperor’s demeanor.

Yet, no one thought his attitude inappropriate.

”Your Majesty Holy King, Huangfu Haotian is present,” Huangfu Haotian cautiously said.

Si Mo said, ”I instructed Huangfu Huan to tell you to take good care of Mu Qingge. Is this how you took care of her?” His tone was calm, yet still chilling.

Huangfu Huan hurriedly kneeled beside his father, head down, ”Your Majesty Holy King, calm your anger!”

”Your Majesty Holy King, please calm your anger. Our Huangfu Family cannot escape blame for causing Young Lord Mu to encounter danger, and we willingly accept punishment!” Huangfu Haotian said in grief.

At this point, any defense was futile. Only by voluntarily admitting guilt was there a glimmer of hope.

Huangfu Huan secretly raised his head, filled with pleading, looking towards Mu Qingge.

Mu Qingge received his pleading gaze, considered for a moment, then tugged on Si Mo’s sleeve, saying, ”Huangfu Huan is not bad. My matters have nothing to do with the Huangfu Family.”

Her words brought grateful looks from Huangfu Huan, Huangfu Haotian, and even the Great Sacrificial Officer and Seventh Tributor.

Si Mo looked at her, indulgently said, ”Alright, as you say.”

These words immediately clued the onlookers into a truth!

Mu Qingge could influence the Holy King’s decisions, her mere words could either doom or save!

Understanding this, the Lan Family Ancestor quickly knelt before Mu Qingge, ”Young Lord Mu, our Lan Family was momentarily foolish, deceived by wicked people, leading to offense against you. Now that the main culprit Lan Feiyue is dead, please forgive the Lan Family.”

The Lan Family quickly caught on. The Myriad Beasts Sect and Refining Tower weren’t far behind.

Hei Mu and Lou Xuantie, who had been relentlessly targeting Mu Qingge, also knelt, humbly begging for mercy.

At this moment, gone were their overbearing and arrogant attitudes.

Those Spiritual Movement Stage elders who had intended to kill her during the Trial Space were now fawning as they knelt and kowtowed, hoping for Mu Qingge’s mercy.

Focusing on the so-called strong ones kneeling before her, Mu Qingge’s gaze was full of mockery. She coldly remarked, ”Indeed, it’s nice to bask in the shade of a great tree!”
