Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 862: Chapter 297: One Year (First Update)

”Daring to covet this lord’s woman, you’re courting death!”

A cold and majestic voice descended from the sky. The people below the city wall suddenly felt mountains pressing down on their shoulders, with invisible wind blades constantly lashing at their flesh and skin.

”Ah—!”

Most couldn’t bear it and let out screams of agony.

The ground echoed with wails.

Only a few, with gritted teeth and bulging veins, managed to withstand the invasive force without screaming in pain.

For example, Ying Ze, Ji Yaohua, Yao Xinghai... and Wei Molili.

They stood amongst the crowd, enduring the sudden force, their expressions turning ugly.

”Who can be so formidable!” Sheng Yuli had already been forced to the ground, kneeling on one knee. He endured the pain, squeezing these words through his teeth.

Yet, even so, he remembered to firmly protect Qin Yiyao beside him before kneeling, taking much of the pressure on her behalf.

Jiang Tianhao was beside him, faring no better at the moment.

He strained to lift his head, looking toward the sky, seemingly trying to locate the source of the voice.

”It’s the Holy King!” Qin Yiyao, protected by Sheng Yuli, murmured.

As soon as her words fell, a tall, dark figure seemed to tear through the sky, stepping out. Those indifferent and emotionless eyes swept lightly over the people below the city wall, radiating a frosty killing intent.

Instantly, everyone felt as if they were plunged into an ice cave, their bodies frozen and immobile, at the mercy of others.

’Who is he?’

’Why does he have such powerful killing intent?’

’So strong! This person’s strength seems to surpass everything!’

’What does his earlier remark mean?’

’Who is this formidable figure?’

Si Mo’s appearance, along with the pressure he brought, made everyone present overlook his extraordinary appearance, being instead overwhelmed by his power.

”Could he be Qingge’s beloved?” Ji Yaohua clutched her chest, enduring the pain as she spoke to Ying Ze beside her.

Ying Ze pressed his lips tightly and nodded forcefully.

Didn’t those domineering words already make everything clear?

”I find this person so familiar, but I can’t remember where I’ve seen him,” Ji Yaohua suddenly said.

However, as soon as he said this, it was as if a bolt of lightning flashed in his mind, and he suddenly remembered. ”Ah! It was him! The mysterious figure who nearly killed me at the Sunset Grassland!”

His words made Ying Ze’s eyes slightly narrow, looking at Si Mo in astonishment.

Si Mo gave the crowd a light glance, and amid their fearful trembles, he took a step, his figure immediately disappearing before reappearing atop the city wall, standing next to Mu Qingge.

”Why are you here!” Mu Qingge looked surprised at the suddenly appearing Si Mo, exclaiming.

Si Mo, however, raised a cold smile, reached out his long arm, and dominantly wrapped it around Mu Qingge’s slender waist, forcefully pulling her into his arms, his tone dangerously low, ”What? Little Ge’er doesn’t want me here? Or is it that my presence is interfering with the City Lord’s choice of a husband?”

Mu Qingge twitched her mouth, gritting her teeth to explain, ”It’s a rumor!”

”Doesn’t Little Ge’er miss me? Ever since returning from the Ruishui River, you haven’t had the time to see me.” Si Mo still held Mu Qingge tightly, softly complaining of his dissatisfaction.

He had waited outside for three years just to see this little one who occupied his thoughts day and night!

”Didn’t I send you messages?” Mu Qingge muttered.

As soon as she left, she had sent Si Mo messages. How could that mean she didn’t think of him? Moreover, in the past two days, the Palace Bell had rung more than once.

”But your messages did not mention these men below,” Si Mo pointed to those still suppressed by his power, his wide sleeve naturally hanging down.

Mu Qingge helplessly said, ”I’m here today to resolve this matter.”

”How does Little Ge’er plan to explain?” Si Mo persistently asked.

Mu Qingge shrugged, ”How else can I explain? Simply clarify that I never intended to choose a husband, and it’s all baseless rumors.”

”That explanation is no good,” Si Mo frowned.

”Then what brilliant idea do you have?” Mu Qingge raised her eyebrows and looked at him.

Si Mo laughed.

But in his smile, Mu Qingge detected a hint of scheming.

”Am I not here? Just announce directly that I am your fiancé, won’t that stop their fantasies?” Si Mo said with a smile.

Mu Qingge narrowed her eyes, looking at him with a mix of amusement and disbelief.

Si Mo tightened his hold on her, whispering, ”Originally, I thought of killing them all.”

”...” Mu Qingge was speechless, was this man threatening her?

However, after today’s events, who in this world wouldn’t know that she already had a man?

Mu Qingge smiled bitterly, she never intended for her private life to be public, but now seeing the situation below the city walls, it seemed she could no longer remain silent.

She thought in her heart, even if everyone knew she had a fiancé, it wouldn’t be a bad thing.

At least, today’s incident wouldn’t happen again, saving her a lot of trouble. Most importantly, it would put this man at ease.

After thinking for a moment and finding no drawbacks, Mu Qingge nodded and said to Si Mo, ”You can withdraw the pressure you’re exerting on them first.”

”You agreed!” A look of delight surfaced in Si Mo’s bright eyes.

Mu Qingge nodded with a smile and said, ”There’s nothing here that can’t be spoken about openly.”

Her words brought a joyful smile to Si Mo’s face.

With a wave of his hand, he withdrew the pressure he had placed on everyone.

The sudden relief made everyone at the base of the city wall feel as if a burden had been lifted off their shoulders.

They secretly breathed a sigh of relief and looked up at the man and woman whispering to each other while embracing, momentarily at a loss for words.

Whether they came for Mu Qingge herself or for the power she represented, at this moment, they all felt that the combination of one black and one red truly complemented each other, a match made in heaven!

Standing together, the two seemed completely inseparable.

”So handsome!” It was only now that someone noticed Si Mo’s flawlessly handsome features.

Even from a distance, where the view wasn’t clear, he still struck everyone with awe.

It was as if, before him, they were mere mortals among the crowd, while he was a lofty deity!

”This incredibly handsome man is so intimate with Mu, could it be...”

”What could it be? Didn’t you hear what was said just now?”

”What was said?”

”This distinguished gentleman said that Mu is his woman!”

”Ah—!”

Yes, they had heard it just now.

’So, you already had someone in mind?’ Yao Xinghai looked up at the perfectly matched pair with a tinge of heartache.

Among the crowd, Han Caicai watched Mu Qingge’s face, glowing with a girlish smile, and murmured, ”Is it only in front of him that you reveal such maidenly shyness?”

Wei Molili also watched the pair on the city wall, silent and contemplative.

Mu Qingge turned her gaze down to the base of the city wall.

She spoke loudly, without a hint of embarrassment, ”Everyone, I don’t know where the rumors started. But today, as you have seen...” She pointed at Si Mo, boldly declaring, ”This is my man, Mu Qingge’s man. In the past, now, and in the future, only he can stand by my side. So, you should all disperse now.”

Everyone was shocked!

What stunned them wasn’t that Mu Qingge had a man, but that she, a woman, could declare such bold words!

’City Lord Mu, truly no ordinary woman!’ they all thought to themselves.

Regardless of how shocked the people below were, Si Mo was exceedingly pleased with Mu Qingge’s statement. He laughed heartily, embraced her, and gave her a gentle peck on the lips.

”Little Ge’er, I’m very happy,” he unabashedly expressed his emotions.

Mu Qingge, taken by surprise by his sudden kiss, blushed with a myriad of emotions.

The sight of their kissing fell into the gaze of those below. Suddenly, countless hearts shattered, and the pieces scattered everywhere. At the same time, they were amazed by the couple’s audacity!

The renowned City Lord Mu, famous in the Middle Ages, is now claimed by someone?!

With this regret and astonishment, the people who had come to Luoxing City left under the ’escort’ of the Dragon Tooth Guards.

The next day, Mu Qingge and Si Mo departed together.

She expressed a desire to train in the magical space where Huangfu Huan and the others had gone. Naturally, Si Mo had no reason to refuse. However, that night, he claimed his reward in advance and recaptured the longing built up over the past three years.

Mu Qingge came and went in a hurry.

Her footsteps never ceased; she was always advancing on the path of the strong.

A year passed, neither long nor short.

In the blood-red space, countless Beast Clan creatures surged towards the dazzling red figure, their mouths agape, expressions filled with frigid killing intent.

Violence permeated every corner.

A silver spear weaved through the beast crowd, dragging with it a string of blood pearls, accompanied by the constant wailing of falling beasts.

”Stunning Shot—!” A clear and pleasant female voice suddenly rang out.

Immediately, a magnificent scene erupted in the blood-red space.

Where the spear’s shadow passed, flames danced wildly, causing countless beasts to explode spontaneously, as if they were fireworks.

The massive destructive power seemed to have surpassed the space’s tolerance.

With several ’crack’ sounds, the entire space shattered like a broken mirror, transforming into starlight.

In the blink of an eye, Mu Qingge stood in a place with picturesque scenery, surrounded by celestial mist.

From time to time, birds chirped peacefully, exuding an air of serenity.

Mu Qingge stood there, holding the Linglong Spear, her presence still brimming with a murderous aura. The bloody scent on her clashed with the tranquility of the place.

However, the figure standing beneath the trees in a mysteriously dark robe made her tense heart relax instantly.

The handsome, tall man under the tree unfolded his picturesque eyebrows, giving her a doting smile. ”Little Ge’er, come here.”
