Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 556: Chapter 200: Where’s the Easter Egg? Master, Baby Has a Secret!

At the foot of Li Palace Mountain, Huangfu Huan’s mouth held a slightly bitter smile as he looked up at the temple shrouded in mist and couldn’t help but sigh.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded behind him.

Huangfu Huan withdrew his gaze, turned around, and smiled at the approaching person, ”I knew I would be able to see you here today.”

Shen Bicheng stopped, his distinctly rugged face showing a trace of confusion.

Huangfu Huan gave an embarrassed smile, took out a Qiankun Bag and waved it before Shen Bicheng, smiling bitterly, ”By imperial decree, I’ve come to deliver some precious gifts to Upper Li Palace. It’s quite abrupt, so it’s less awkward with your company.”

Shen Bicheng was silent for a moment before saying, ”How did you know I’d come?”

”Mu Little Lord has suddenly become Lady Mu, and my previous assumptions were wrong. I thought you and I both want an answer.” Huangfu Huan smiled slightly.

Shen Bicheng lowered his eyes, seemingly agreeing with Huangfu Huan’s words.

He walked past Huangfu Huan, taking a few steps before stopping again, glancing sideways at Huangfu Huan, ”I’ve come to ask the Holy King to accept me as an apprentice.”

Then he strode towards the barrier of Upper Li Palace.

Huangfu Huan paused, pondering Shen Bicheng’s words, and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

This Shen lunatic seemed to be explaining to him that whether Mu Qingge was male or female didn’t matter. He came simply to see the Holy King?

Huangfu Huan raised his brows even higher.

He thought to himself, ’Who was it that once said if choosing a wife, he would choose someone like Mu Little Lord?’ Uh, although the reason is a bit far-fetched and strange. It’s simply because Mu Qingge was stronger and defeated him.

Huangfu Huan shook his head helplessly, flicked his sleeve, and followed.

In fact, his agreement to visit the Upper Li Palace at this time was also for the matter of apprenticeship.

Consoling Mu Qingge was indeed true, but also an excuse.

The two stood at the mountain’s foot, stating their purpose.

At the mountain top, Gu Ya knocked on Mu Qingge’s door.

Mu Qingge looked at him with a puzzled expression.

Gu Ya said, ”Huangfu Huan and Shen Bicheng request to see you at the mountain’s foot.”

”Them?” Mu Qingge was a bit surprised. Unexpectedly, after everything had settled, the first ones to come to Upper Li Palace were these two.

Huangfu Huan was understandable, with the pressure from the Imperial Family, they urgently needed to gain some information from Li Palace. But Shen Bicheng being so eager? That was indeed strange.

Thinking it over, Mu Qingge said to Gu Ya, ”Why ask me whether to see them or not?” meaning, go ask Si Mo, as he is the master of Li Palace.

But Gu Ya said, ”The master is in closed training.”

Uh!

Si Mo is in closed training?

So suddenly? Mu Qingge furrowed her brows slightly, subconsciously pressing her lips together. She seldom saw Si Mo cultivating; this time, he suddenly went into closed training?

Then she remembered that Si Mo had mentioned before that the place he was going was far from Linchuan. This time he returned unexpectedly and accompanied her in her deeds of violence and plundering, which must have taken quite a toll. On returning, he hadn’t rested yet, and watched her breakthrough; going into closed training now was logical.

In a flash of thought, Mu Qingge had already explained to herself the reason for Si Mo’s closed training.

She nodded understandingly and said to Gu Ya, ”Since he’s in closed training, even if they come up, they won’t see him. Let them leave.”

But Gu Ya didn’t turn to leave, instead saying to her, ”They aren’t here to see the master.”

Not to see Si Mo?

Mu Qingge was stunned for a moment, then realizing, her expression darkened, ”Then why didn’t you just say they came to see me? How hard is that? Why all the beating around the bush?”

With that, she shook her head disdainfully, ”Gu Ya, Gu Ya, I always thought you were a tough guy, but I didn’t expect you to be so wishy-washy.”

Gu Ya’s mouth twitched exasperatedly, his face darkening, ”Will you see them or not?”

”See them!” Mu Qingge answered promptly. Then she jumped up from her seat, patting the dust off her robes.

Shen Bicheng fought so hard in the Trial Space; she should at least thank him. As for Huangfu Huan, her Dragon Teeth Guards, as well as the current situations of Zhao Nanxing, Feng Yufei, Jiang Li, and others, he probably knew well.

Having received Mu Qingge’s answer, Gu Ya turned and walked out.

After a while, Huangfu Huan and Shen Bicheng were led up the mountain by Gu Ye to the platform outside the palace.

Here, they could take in the magnificent rivers and mountains, akin to the Immortal Realm.

After bringing the two here, Gu Ye turned and left.

Huangfu Huan and Shen Bicheng exchanged a glance and looked around, then Huangfu Huan said, ”Though it’s not my first time to the Upper Li Palace, I’ve never received such treatment before.”

In the past, he always had to wait outside for a long time before being summoned.

No, it can’t really be called a summons. It was just that the way up the mountain was opened, allowing him to ascend. After reaching the mountain, he still couldn’t see the Holy King, awkwardly wandering the palace like a transparent entity.

The two Black Servants never acknowledged him, acting as if he didn’t exist. How could they have led them up the mountain like today?

Shen Bicheng did not respond to Huangfu Huan’s remark.

He just stood there silently.

It wasn’t long before footsteps were heard.

Huangfu Huan and Shen Bicheng looked over at the same time, seeing a woman in red, stunning and exquisite, with a wild and free demeanor between her brows.

Even though it wasn’t their first time seeing her, and even though they knew who she was, they couldn’t help but be dazzled, their expressions momentarily dazed.

Since Mu Qingge removed her earrings in the Trial Space, she hadn’t put them back on.

In her view, since these people already knew she was female, there was no need to hide it. Furthermore, she was currently with Si Mo and they occasionally had intimate interactions. If she continued to disguise herself with an Illusionary Artifact, even if Si Mo didn’t mind, she would find the image quite bizarre.

Therefore, she was now dressed as a woman.

Her usual red dress was not as ethereal and cumbersome as those of typical women, but clean and crisp. Her waist was cinched with a delicate leather belt, accentuating her slender waist, and making her legs appear even more straight and long.

Her long hair was still tied up high, simply fixed with a female headband, without any extra adornments, making her captivating face even more stunning.

As she moved, the Jade ornament tied around her waist as decoration made a crisp sound, adding a touch of liveliness.

Mu Qingge’s female attire was equally dashing and charismatic, without a trace of affectation. This beauty differed from that of ordinary women; it was unique and unforgettable.

When she approached the two, she found them standing dazedly in place, and couldn’t help twitching the corner of her mouth, raising her hand to touch her cheek, muttering, ”Am I really that scary in women’s clothing?”

This one sentence pulled Huangfu Huan and Shen Bicheng’s Primordial Spirits back to reality.

What did she say?

She thinks she looks scary in women’s attire?

This is ridiculous!

”If you see that as scary, then no women in the world are worth looking at!” Huangfu Huan lamented internally.

”Ahem.” Huangfu Huan coughed lightly, masking his thoughts. Steadying himself, he looked at Mu Qingge and said, ”Even knowing you’re a woman, I still think ’Lord Mu’ suits you best. Calling you ’Miss Mu’ just feels...” he shook his head while speaking.

Mu Qingge immediately replied, ”Please don’t, it sounds awkward when you say it, and it feels awkward to me too. You’re right, calling me ’Lord Mu’ is more natural.”

Huangfu Huan laughed, ”I guess it won’t be long before the news that the renowned Lord Mu is actually female spreads across Linchuan Continent.”

Mu Qingge’s brows furrowed slightly, and she thought, ’This could be troublesome! The old man once said that once my identity was revealed, he’d set up a platform across Linchuan to find me a husband. Uh, Si Mo might go on a rampage!’

Mu Qingge suddenly felt a chill down her spine.

’Fortunately, I’m leaving Linchuan soon. These messy things won’t find me. Once I’m back, I must stop the old man from his reckless behavior!’ Mu Qingge’s thoughts raced, considering running away while pondering whether to send the Dragon Tooth Guards back to inform Mu Xiong that she had already chosen a man, thus sparing the old man the trouble.

It wasn’t until Huangfu Huan called her twice more that she returned to her senses.

She looked at Shen Bicheng, glanced him up and down, and said, ”You’ve recovered well.”

”I’m all better.” Shen Bicheng replied straightforwardly.

Mu Qingge nodded seriously, ”Thanks for this time. I owe you a favor, if you ever need help, feel free to find me.” This was her promise.

She was someone who clearly distinguished between gratitude and resentment. Shen Bicheng had risked his life to help her this time, and she remembered this favor.

Moreover, she didn’t plan to repay with material wealth, but instead offered a promise.

”I’ll remember that.” Shen Bicheng was not the least bit polite.

”Hey, what about me? Though I didn’t risk my life like Shen the madman, I was running around outside, racking my brains trying to save you!” Huangfu Huan said anxiously.

Mu Qingge glanced at him sideways, ”You’ve come to see me this time just to claim your reward?”

Huangfu Huan grinned and said, ”Am I such a pragmatic person? I’ve come to bring you some things.” Then, he handed over the Qiankun Bag, personally prepared by Emperor Yuan, to Mu Qingge.

Mu Qingge looked at the Qiankun Bag with suspicion.

Huangfu Huan explained, ”My father feels guilty about disappointing the Holy King, so he sent me up the mountain to apologize and also to deliver some items to Young Lord Mu for your health.”

Mu Qingge suddenly understood. She infused her spiritual sense into the Qiankun Bag to take a look.

Sure enough, inside were piles of medicinal materials, as well as rare supplements, along with bolts of silk and satin, precious antiques, various tributes—a bountiful collection.

It was quite a generous offering!

”The Holy Yuan Empire truly has deep pockets!” Mu Qingge withdrew her spiritual sense and remarked to Huangfu Huan with a smile.

Huangfu Huan replied with a bitter smile, ”This time, my father really went all out. The items inside were enough to empty half of his private stash.”

Unfortunately, his blunt truth only earned Mu Qingge a ’yeah, right’ look.

Mu Qingge unceremoniously pocketed the Qiankun Bag and casually said, ”Thank Emperor Yuan for me.”

”My father also has a question he wants me to ask on his behalf,” Huangfu Huan said.

Mu Qingge raised an eyebrow, her eyes turning as she already guessed what Emperor Yuan wanted to ask. ”Go back and tell Emperor Yuan that I’m not interested in those things from the Lan Family. My Mu Family is used to staying in Qin Country, and it’s hard to leave our homeland.” What she needed, Gu Ya and Gu Ye had already taken for her; she wasn’t greedy for anything else.

Huangfu Huan’s eyes flashed, understanding the two meanings in her words.

Firstly, she was unwilling to intervene in the reshuffling of forces in Tiandu.

Secondly, she made it clear that the Mu Family was still the Mu Family, the Mu Family of Qin Country. Nothing would change.

But Huangfu Huan chuckled bitterly inside.

Now, with Mu Qingge’s growing fame and her close relationship with the Holy King, the Mu Family, even if located in a corner, had already become the leading noble family.

From now on, who would dare to provoke the Mu Family?

No doubt, from now on, the yearly tribute lists of all the forces in Linchuan would have one more entry: the Mu Family!

”Alright, I will truthfully convey this to my father,” Huangfu Huan said solemnly.

”Those you truly wanted to meet today weren’t me, right?” Suddenly, Mu Qingge turned the conversation around.

Huangfu Huan and Shen Bicheng showed no embarrassment as the former helplessly smiled, ”Seeing you was part of the task, but indeed, the two of us wanted to meet the Holy King. I wonder if the Young Lord could help?”

Mu Qingge slowly shook her head, ”It’s not that I won’t help. He is in seclusion and probably doesn’t have time to see you two.”

The Holy King is in seclusion?

This answer caused a flicker of disappointment in Huangfu Huan’s and Shen Bicheng’s eyes.

Regarding Si Mo’s seclusion, they weren’t as surprised as Mu Qingge.

After all, their families also had elders with high cultivation, and although these people couldn’t compare to the Holy King, they had left them with the impression that they would often retreat into seclusion, and it would be for a long time.

”Meeting him was for the matter of apprenticeship?” Mu Qingge asked.

Bai Xi and Yuanyuan both wanted to apprentice under Si Mo; she had long known this. She had promised Huangfu Huan to ask Si Mo for him.

However, last time she inquired, Si Mo’s answer was ambiguous, and this time, he had gone into seclusion before she could even ask.

Huangfu Huan nodded and looked at Shen Bicheng.

Shen Bicheng pursed his lips and said, ”You owe me a favor, so please ask the Holy King if he could accept me as a disciple. Whether the answer is yes or no, consider the favor repaid.”

Mu Qingge was taken aback, so was Huangfu Huan.

After confirming she hadn’t heard wrong, a tinge of sadness rose in Mu Qingge’s heart. Was her promise so worthless? Could a single sentence repay such a favor?

She didn’t see asking Si Mo a question as particularly difficult, yet she didn’t realize how important this matter was to Shen Bicheng.

Without her, he might never get his answer in his lifetime!

”Are you sure you want to use my promise? I can tell you, even if you don’t use it, I’ll still help you ask. Do you still want to insist?” Mu Qingge asked.

Shen Bicheng nodded without hesitation. ”So we owe each other nothing; then when I challenge you next time, I can do so without any concerns.”

”...” Mu Qingge was speechless. Was this Shen Bicheng’s logic? Well, alright.

Mu Qingge said to Huangfu Huan and Shen Bicheng, ”Let me be clear, I can ask, but I will never interfere with his decision.” She wasn’t one to meddle, and if it hadn’t been for Huangfu Huan and Shen Bicheng helping her quite a bit, along with her previous promise, she wouldn’t have bothered with this matter.

”Of course,” Huangfu Huan replied with a smile.

Shen Bicheng also nodded in thanks.

”And what about the others?” Having said everything she needed to say, Mu Qingge finally asked a question she was concerned about.

Her question seemed general, but Huangfu Huan knew exactly whose news she wished to hear. So he said, ”The Dragon Tooth Guards, Prince Zhao, and Crown Princess Feng have all returned to the Post House of the Third-class Country. Empress Jiang also returned to the Post House of the Ancient Witch Country. My father has dispatched people to treat them, and even the director of the Medicine Tower has stepped in, so they are all fine now. They just need a few days of rest. However, this time, the elites of Li Country and Yu Country suffered great losses. Even though they won, it will be difficult to enter the Ancient Ruins.”

Mu Qingge pursed her lips and was silent.

Her clear eyes were thoughtful.

Currently, with the token she held, it’s possible to have all Third-class Countries advance in the third round.

Once the overall scores are calculated, she could at least bring one Third-class Country into the Ancient Ruins. However, as Huangfu Huan mentioned, Li Country and Yu Country have suffered greatly because of her, and giving them the spot might be somewhat wasteful.

What should she do about this?

Mu Qingge lightly furrowed her brows, unable to make a decision for a moment.

She felt it was better to see Zhao Nanxing and Feng Yufei before deciding. She wanted to hear their thoughts, whether they wanted to go or not!

She raised her eyes and said to Huangfu Huan, ”Help me send a message and tell them to rest well; the remaining matters will be discussed when I return.”

”Alright.” Huangfu Huan readily agreed.

This was an opportunity for him to have a legitimate reason to see Empress Jiang!

Having said what needed to be said, Huangfu Huan and Shen Bicheng did not linger in Li Palace and went down the mountain.

After sending them off, Mu Qingge also returned to her room.

However, she was not in the room; instead, she entered the space.

Since Si Mo was in seclusion, she could also enter the space to handle some of her own matters. For instance, cultivation, organizing this time’s spoils!

However, as soon as she entered the space, she heard an earth-shattering scream—

”Ah! It’s bad! The egg is broken! The egg is broken!”

The shrill sound echoed in the space.

Mu Qingge was stunned, blinking as she thought, ’Broken egg? Whose egg is broken?’

The first thought was those hundreds of bird eggs stolen from the Phoenix Tree Forest, so she quickly ran to check the storage area, finding the bird eggs were safely lying there, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Mengmeng’s voice continued.

And it came from behind her.

Mu Qingge turned around to see Mengmeng running toward her in a panic, still shouting, ”Master, the egg is broken! The egg is broken!”

”Can you speak properly?” Mu Qingge grabbed her and frowned.

Mengmeng was held by Mu Qingge, swaying back and forth. Her innocent large eyes looked at Mu Qingge. Suddenly, her small mouth pursed, and she started crying, ”Wah—! Master, it’s really not Mengmeng’s fault! The egg wasn’t smashed by Mengmeng! It must have been that fool Yuanyuan!”

”What egg broke?” Mu Qingge was getting a headache from her crying.

Mengmeng sniffed, her chubby face covered in tears, written with grievance, ”It’s the Seven-colored Egg that Master brought back with Yuanyuan.”

Mu Qingge paused, reacting.

Oh right! There was still a Seven-colored Egg she had forgotten.

Hmm... She suddenly felt there were quite a lot of eggs in her space.

Without saying a word, Mu Qingge grabbed Mengmeng and headed towards the palace.

After they had walked for a while, a small white tail emerged from the dense pile of bird eggs, shook a few times, and suddenly, the bird egg in front of the tail disappeared.

A faint crackling sound softly echoed.

...

Carrying Mengmeng into the palace, Mu Qingge saw Yuanyuan squatting on the ground, his chubby fingers poking at something.

”Yuanyuan.” Mu Qingge slowed her steps and called.

Yuanyuan immediately turned his head, and his delicate pink face broke into a smile upon seeing Mu Qingge. He stood up and rushed towards her, shouting cutely, ”Mommy Boss, Yuanyuan missed you!”

”Smelly Yuanyuan, back off! The master is mine, mine, mine! She’s my Meng Baobao!” Mengmeng tugged at Yuanyuan’s arm to prevent him from getting close to Mu Qingge.

Yuanyuan wasn’t willing to back down either and started wrestling with her, pulling her pigtail and threatening boldly, ”Shorty, believe it or not, I’ll set your hair on fire!”

”You dare! Meng Baobao will lock you in the Black Prison! You’ll never see the master again!” Mengmeng pulled at Yuanyuan’s mouth, presenting a hideous appearance.

”Enough, both of you!” Mu Qingge looked at the two little ones with a headache.

Actually, they weren’t really jealous, this was just their mode of interaction.

But normally it’s fine if they act this way. At the moment, an eerie event had occurred, yet they were still in the mood to playfight.

Mu Qingge really wanted to poke their heads and scold, ”You little scatterbrains!”

After Mu Qingge’s shout, Yuanyuan and Mengmeng immediately stood up straight, with their hands glued tightly to their sides and lips shut tight. Then, they looked at her innocently with their big cute eyes.

After being defeated by their eye attack, Mu Qingge surrendered.

”Come over and see what’s going on.” She said, holding one of them in each hand and walked over to where the Seven-colored Egg was previously placed.

Sure enough, the Seven-colored Egg was gone, leaving behind only a piece of eggshell that was not even half the size of Yuanyuan’s fist. The eggshell still glimmering faintly with seven-colored light, and some clear sticky fluid remained inside.

Earlier, Yuanyuan was poking at this eggshell repeatedly.

Mu Qingge picked up the eggshell to observe carefully. ”Looks like whatever was inside has come out.”

”It came out, but where did it hide?” Mengmeng asked curiously.

Mu Qingge turned her gaze towards her.

Being watched by her made Mengmeng inexplicably grab her little belly cover in fear and said with horror, ”Master, why are you looking at Baobao like that? Baobao is a pure Baobao, not for sale!”

Mu Qingge twitched the corner of her mouth, giving her a hard flick on the forehead. Grinding her teeth, she said, ”Shouldn’t you be the one to know where it went? You’re the Space Spirit.”

”Ah!” Mengmeng’s expression changed, becoming awkward. After a moment, she sheepishly said, ”Baobao forgot!”

Mu Qingge’s vision turned black.

Just how unreliable could this Space Spirit be!

Could she really forget her own identity?

Seeing the disdain in Mu Qingge’s eyes, Mengmeng quickly shifted the blame to Yuanyuan. She pointed at Yuanyuan, feeling wronged, and said, ”It’s all Yuanyuan’s fault. He got all flustered when he saw the egg broke, and made Meng Baobao panic too.”

”Shorty! What nonsense are you spouting? I’m not taking the blame for this!” Yuanyuan shouted at Mengmeng.

If Mu Qingge wasn’t there, this hot-tempered little rascal would likely charge forward to brawl with Mengmeng.

”Enough.” Mu Qingge frowned and said, ”Hurry up and find out where it is.”

”Okay.”

With Mu Qingge’s stern command, the two little ones deflated.

Mengmeng calmed herself and began searching the entire space.

Suddenly, her eyes widened in horror looking at Mu Qingge, ”Master, I have some bad news. That little thing is stealing your eggs!”

Mu Qingge froze for a moment before reacting.

Swish—!

Immediately, she vanished from the palace.

Mengmeng and Yuanyuan exchanged a glance and then dashed out after her.

Mu Qingge appeared abruptly at the place where the bird eggs were placed and saw in a hidden corner, some eggshells scattered around, causing her heart to ache immensely.

These bird eggs were brought out from the Phoenix Tree Forest.

Her order at that time was that each Dragon Tooth Guard could only steal three eggs, and there were nearly two hundred Dragon Tooth Guards with her, totaling over five hundred eggs brought out.

The entire team of Dragon Tooth Guards numbered five hundred.

Excluding some that failed to hatch or were congenitally underdeveloped, there were barely enough.

Now, something was actually stealing to eat them?!

Really, this was beyond tolerable!

”Come out!” Mu Qingge’s voice was icy cold.

Silence, nothing but silence.

Mu Qingge’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, eyes sharp, ”I’ll say it again, come out! Otherwise...”

Before she could finish, a white flash rushed towards her, accompanied by a babyish voice, ”Mommy~!”

The word ”Mommy” left Mu Qingge utterly dumbfounded.

Before she could react, she saw the white flash transform into a bundle of white shadow, diving into her embrace.

She caught it instinctively, feeling a sudden heaviness in her hands and a piercing coldness, which cleared her mind significantly.

Regaining clarity, Mu Qingge looked down at the creature she held closely, meeting a pair of bewitching eyes.

These were purple-golden vertical pupils filled with a seductive charm on a small face, coldly beautiful features, each stroke adding to a captivating allure. A sharp chin resembling a pearl setting. A silver mysterious totem faintly appeared on her forehead.

Her ink-black hair smoothly hung behind her ear, and her ears were sharp and endearing pink.

Mu Qingge’s gaze slowly descended, and what she saw made her eyebrows twitch uncontrollably.

A slender neck, exquisite collarbone, and even... more impressive than her own... Her body bore mysterious totems similar to those on her forehead, seemingly containing immense power.

Below her body, however, was not a pair of enchanting long legs, but a silver-white snake tail.

Mu Qingge drew in a breath, stunned by this stunningly beautiful monster.

”Mommy, why aren’t you talking to me?” The babyish voice cooed.

Then, she sweetly nuzzled Mu Qingge’s cheek, her hands clinging to Mu Qingge’s shoulders, creating an outrageously beautiful scene.

But—

Mu Qingge’s body stiffened slightly, forcing out a smile, ”Do you think it’s appropriate to call me mommy like this?”

”But you are my mommy!” The bewitching beauty snake in her arms pouted and gave her a pleading look.

Mu Qingge was tongue-tied.

She loosened her grip, intending to release the beauty snake.

However, upon loosening her grasp, the beauty snake didn’t fall. The snake tail actually coiled around Mu Qingge, pressing her voluptuous upper body even closer.

Mu Qingge gasped.

She grumbled inside, ’Jiang Li’s bloodline is also related to snakes, but how is it so different from this one!’

Mengmeng and Yuanyuan arrived at this moment, witnessing Mu Qingge entangled by a beauty snake, they immediately shouted in unison—

”Hey! Demon, release my Mommy Boss!”

”Demon, let go of my master!”

Right after Yuanyuan spoke, he opened his mouth and spat out the Bone Demon Flame at the beauty snake.

This change occurred too quickly, and Mu Qingge only managed to shout, ”Yuanyuan stop!”

Before seeing the beauty snake cuddling her, vertical pupils fierce, beautiful face turning cold as frost, gazing at Yuanyuan.

Her purple-golden vertical pupils emitted a ray of seven-colored light, directly colliding with the Bone Demon Flame.

The seven-colored light and Bone Demon Flame counteracted each other, vanishing without a trace.

Yuanyuan’s eyes widened in shock, Mengmeng’s mouth also dropped open.

Mu Qingge was unexpectedly looking at the beauty snake.

The beauty snake disdainfully sneered and flicked her snake tongue at Yuanyuan and Mengmeng.

”Who exactly are you?” Mu Qingge asked in a daze.

Upon hearing Mu Qingge speak, the beautiful snake’s expression immediately changed from cold as ice to innocent and pitiful. She pouted and said in her childish voice, ”I was hatched from mother’s blood. I remember a long time ago, I was called the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python.”

”Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python!” Mu Qingge looked bewildered, having never heard of such a name. ’Perhaps, I can ask Si Mo,’ she thought silently.

”You are my mother now, and you can give me a name,” said the beautiful snake, acting coquettishly towards Mu Qingge.

Mu Qingge, entangled by her, couldn’t help but say, ”Let go first, and I’ll give you a name.”

”Pfft!”

”Pfft!”

Two sounds of suppressed laughter rang out.

Mu Qingge and the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python both looked towards Yuanyuan and Mengmeng.

Yuanyuan quickly covered his mouth.

Mengmeng, however, couldn’t help but laugh and said, ”Oh dear! Master, we can’t be blamed. It’s her voice, her voice... Oh? Wait, did you say you are the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python?” Mengmeng suddenly stopped laughing, looking shocked at the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python.

The Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python, originally about to get angry at Mengmeng for mocking her voice, suddenly saw her shocked expression and proudly said, ”That’s right! I am the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python.”

Mengmeng’s little face suddenly turned serious as she looked at Mu Qingge.

Mu Qingge’s eyes lit up, laughing, ”Right, I almost forgot you are a know-it-all.”

Yet, Mengmeng tightly shut her mouth, looking gravely at Mu Qingge.

Mu Qingge felt a bit strange, but the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python kept pestering her for a name.

Finally breaking free from the snake’s tail, Mu Qingge carefully inspected the image of the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python. Suddenly, she felt that the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python resembled the image of an ancient Upper God from the myths she knew in her previous life.

”From now on, you’ll be called Bai Xi,” Mu Qingge blurted out, borrowing the name of that great deity.

Bai Xi, Tengshe. The left and right protectors under Nuwa, both snake gods.

Tengshe is male, Bai Xi is female.

”Bai Xi? Bai Xi sounds nice, from now on, I’ll be Bai Xi!” the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python, no, Bai Xi was extremely happy, swinging her snake tail and lifting all the bird eggs on the ground.

This scene scared Mu Qingge into shouting, ”My eggs!”

Fortunately, the bird eggs landed safely.

Mu Qingge breathed a sigh of relief, sternly warning Bai Xi, ”Don’t steal my bird eggs again. I have a use for these bird eggs!”

”Bai Xi understands.” In front of Mu Qingge, this beautiful snake was exceptionally obedient.

Seeing Bai Xi being obedient, Mu Qingge returned to her senses and asked, ”You said it’s my blood that hatched you?” How come she didn’t remember using blood to hatch the seven-colored egg?

Oh, that’s right! Long ago, Mengmeng once mentioned that the seven-colored egg absorbed her blood.

But wasn’t there no reaction afterward? Moreover, just that bit of blood could hatch Bai Xi?

”Yes, not long ago, mother’s blood...”

”Master! Come with me, I have something to tell you.” While Mu Qingge was puzzled, Mengmeng suddenly spoke seriously, interrupting Bai Xi.

Rarely seeing Mengmeng so serious, Mu Qingge nodded and followed her out.

Mengmeng led Mu Qingge to a secluded spot, her cute little face full of seriousness uncharacteristic of her appearance.

”What’s wrong?” Mu Qingge looked at her inexplicably.

Mengmeng frowned, ”I didn’t want to tell you this, Master. But, I have to say it now. Anyway, even if I don’t say it now, you’ll eventually find out some things from that beautiful snake and come to ask me.”

Referring to Bai Xi, Mu Qingge suddenly asked, ”Right, when you heard the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python, why were you so surprised?”

Mengmeng pursed her lips and said to Mu Qingge, ”We can discuss this later.”

She looked at Mu Qingge, saying, ”Master, I really hoped you wouldn’t get entangled with that Great Demon King. But...”

”Great Demon King?” Mu Qingge frowned.

Looking at Mengmeng’s clear eyes, Mu Qingge suddenly understood and blurted out, ”You mean Si Mo?”

”Aren’t you curious why the beautiful snake said it was your blood that hatched her, Master?” Mengmeng suddenly asked.

Mu Qingge’s expression also turned serious.

In her heart, there was a vague feeling that what Mengmeng was about to say would be very important.

”That’s because, Master, you’ve already almost tried once. Your spilled blood soaked the entire space, your body was collapsing to an extreme. Even with your super strong healing ability, it would be difficult to recover completely. If it weren’t for that Great Demon King rushing over in time and using the Reverse Curse to turn back time before your accident, I’m afraid... But while time outside was reversed, this space remained unaffected, so your spilled blood still existed and was absorbed by the Nine Extremes Sky-devouring Python, allowing her to hatch.”

”Wait, what did you say? What Reverse Curse, what time reversal?” Mu Qingge was shocked by Mengmeng’s words.

Mengmeng looked at her, then said, ”The Reverse Curse is one of the most powerful forbidden curses in the world. Very few people can use it. Once cast, the caster will lose ten thousand years of cultivation and their body will suffer severe damage. The main thing is, because this curse overturns destiny, it affects many people’s fates. Therefore, under the law of cause and effect, the caster will face a significant tribulation in the future. The scale of this tribulation depends on the magnitude of destiny altered. The fewer people affected, the lighter the tribulation. The more people affected, the heavier it is.”

Boom—!

Mu Qingge was stunned.

She thought Si Mo had just returned in time.

Unexpectedly, there was a memory obscured behind it.

He actually did this for her?

Mu Qingge felt as if struck by lightning; this was something she should never forget, yet she forgot, leaving him to bear it alone.

Her thoughts were scattered, her heart, for the first time, unraveled.

She didn’t know how tragic the erased past was. But she could imagine, unless driven to despair, Si Mo would never do it.

He disregarded everything, erased his ten thousand years of cultivation, ignored future tribulations, all to bring her back!

The greater the impact, the greater the tribulation?

Mu Qingge’s body wobbled slightly.

”Master!” Mengmeng looked at her with concern.

Mu Qingge’s smile was a bit weakened. However, her heart was like a raging torrent. This man, keeping silent about everything, intends to bear it quietly?

Originally, the outcome was likely mutual destruction.

Now, she turned defeat into victory, avenged herself, and killed countless people.

What kind of tribulation would these influenced destinies bring to Si Mo?

Mu Qingge staggered a little.

Her heart like a churning angry river. What will the implications for Si Mo be with these altered destinies?

From the room, Mu Qingge found Gu Ya and Gu Ye.

Gu Ya and Gu Ye, seeing Mu Qingge standing before them with a cold expression, were slightly taken aback.

The two exchanged a silent glance, both maintained their silence.

”What do you mean by ’Little Lordship’?” we don’t understand,” said Gu Ya.

Mu Qingge squinted her eyes and said, ”Reversal Forbidden Curse!”

The four words ”Reverse Curse” made both Gu Ya and Gu Ye’s eyes tense as they looked at Mu Qingge.

The meaning in their eyes was clear.

Mu Qingge sneered, ”Curious how I know? But I’m not going to say.”

She stepped forward, pressing the two men, and said coldly, ”How much do you think his tribulation will be since he has affected so many fates?”

Mu Qingge, trembling slightly.

They were both silent. If they keep following Si Mo around, they won’t be separated from him, right?

She doesn’t want to disturb him and can only start with these two.

”What do you mean by ’Reverse Curse!”

As soon as the four words ”Reverse Curse” came out, both Gu Ya and Gu Ye’s eyes contracted simultaneously, looking at Mu Qingge.

Mu Qingge’s cold smile, ”Are you curious how I know? But I’m not going to say.”

She took a step forward, closing in on the two, coldly saying, ”How great is the tribulation since its influence is so large?”
