Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 992: Chapter 77: Promising Youth! (14 Updates)

”For what reason did the young master see through my identity?” The maid who had been standing by the door suddenly said this.

And as her voice fell, the figure hidden behind the screen also stepped out. When ’Princess Chu Nian’ appeared in the room, Mu Lin’s eyes narrowed, suddenly feeling that the woman who stepped out seemed more like the maid, while the maid standing beside them seemed more like the Princess.

At this moment, linking the earlier words together, Mu Lin abruptly realized... it turned out that the woman who had always been standing before them was indeed Princess Chu Nian, while the figure hiding behind the screen earlier was merely the maid.

Most importantly, according to Princess Chu Nian, their Young Master had already known from the beginning.

Mu Lin couldn’t help but feel a shock in his heart, his gaze shifted to Mu Tianyin. He sighed internally, ’Although their Young Master is somewhat tyrannical and cold, he is indeed quite brilliant.’

At least, he hadn’t noticed any clues at all.

Suddenly, his eyes sharply constricted, thinking, ’So, does this mean that the Young Master said those words earlier intentionally to provoke the real Princess Chu Nian into revealing herself?’

No sooner had he guessed so when he heard Chu Nian say, ”You said those words earlier to force me to come out, didn’t you?”

Mu Tianyin revealed a handsome smile and said to Chu Nian, ”Fortunately, the Princess did not take offense at my earlier words. Yes, I did discern the Princess’s identity for no other reason. It was simply because the Princess’s voice was different from the voice I heard earlier when asking from inside the door, and there were only two people in this room. Moreover, even though the Princess was veiled, her demeanor was still distinctive. Tianyin’s eyes are not blind, it’s natural to tell.”

”So it is Master Tianyin.” Chu Nian nodded slightly.

Mu Tianyin maintained a smile at the corners of his lips, nodding back in greeting.

”Since Master Tianyin has already uncovered my identity, I shall not be pretentious. Young Master, please come in.” With that, she turned and walked into the room. With every step, her aura continued to ascend. When she sat by the table, her formidable aura had already exposed her cultivation.

’Spirit Cave Realm Eighth Layer!’ Mu Tianyin’s eyes subtly narrowed. The smile at the corners of his mouth slightly stiffened, suppressing the shock in his heart as he walked towards Chu Nian. ”Princess Chu Nian is indeed the prodigy of the Wuhua Domain and is worthy of being called the little God Emperor of Wuhua.”

Chu Nian smiled faintly, showing not the slightest pride at Mu Tianyin’s praise. Instead, she said, ”Chu Nian is already five thousand one hundred years old; this little cultivation is really not worth mentioning.”

She smiled as she said this and addressed Mu Tianyin, ”Speaking of age, perhaps it wouldn’t be too much for Master Tianyin to call me ancestor.”

Mu Tianyin’s eyes flickered, understanding that she was retaliating for the earlier offense he caused her. He didn’t get angry; he said, ”Princess, you are mistaken. To us cultivators, time means nothing. Moreover, although the Princess is slightly older than I am, there isn’t the slightest sign of age on her; she’s still just as stunning.”

These words carried a bit of sincerity.

To be honest, ever since he saw Chu Nian, there had been an enigmatic yearning added to his original intentions.

It seemed that such a wonderful woman should belong to him!

Chu Nian’s phoenix-like eyes flowed with light, smiling without responding to Mu Tianyin’s words. Her maid, by now, was standing behind her, watching the two of them warily.

After a while, Chu Nian said, ”Young Master Tianyin praises me so unreasonably, I’m truly unworthy. Compared to Young Master Tianyin, my little cultivation talent is really nothing.”

She had seen Mu Tianyin’s ability; although it wasn’t as strong as hers, she also acknowledged that the age difference between them was so large, yet their cultivation was only a hairbreadth apart.

Such talent is indeed more formidable than hers.

She spoke with complete candor, without hypocrisy, and without any jealousy. This made Mu Tianyin appreciate her even more, feeling that she was indeed a rare woman.

...

In the compartment at the front of the Immortal Dew Pavilion, Mu Qingge and Yin Chen were still chatting casually.

The woman playing the zither had reached the end of her melody, appearing ready to leave.

”It’s rumored that Princess Chu Nian never liked cultivation since she was young but loved flowers and the zither. However, she never plays for outsiders, and the pieces she’s composed are always performed by her maid; she truly is quite a character.” Mu Qingge laughed.

Yin Chen saw through it clearly and said bluntly, ”Regardless of her personality, since she is a Princess of the Wuhua Domain and the little God Emperor of the Wuhua Domain, she is your enemy, Qingge. You shouldn’t praise her so much.”

Mu Qingge laughed, ”I’m not praising her, just recounting how others described her. Besides, even if Wuhua God Emperor was involved with the Mu Clan incident back then. One should not blame the family; as long as she doesn’t oppose me, I won’t do anything to her.”

”Qingge’s heart has softened.” Yin Chen raised his blood-red eyes, looking at her.

Mu Qingge was taken aback and blinked at him.

Under her gaze, Yin Chen slowly said, ”The former Qingge, regardless of the enemy’s strength, would deal with them swiftly and decisively, eradicating them without mercy.”

Mu Qingge shook her head with a smile.

Her body reclined lazily backward, saying, ”Perhaps the Mu Clan’s vendetta feels too distant for me.” When she said this, Mu Qingge’s clear eyes, which held a smile, gradually lost the smile.

In truth, her hatred was solely directed at Mu Tianyin.

As for the revival of the Mu Clan, it was a responsibility she had no choice but to bear. She had once felt the tragedy of a clan’s downfall when she awoke the Mu Clan bloodline.

However, the events that occurred thousands of years ago indeed made it difficult for her to harbor hatred toward the Divine Emperor involved in it.

Her ruthlessness, her decisive nature, her lack of mercy, all stemmed from her desire to protect those she wanted to guard. She eradicated the Imperial Family of Qin Country because of this, destroyed the Le Family of the Middle Ancient Realm because of this, and even annihilated the Refining Tower, Myriad Beasts Sect, and Lan Family because they relentlessly plotted to kill her. Upon reaching the Middle Ancient Realm, she finally eliminated the Divine Hall for the same reason.

You kill me, I kill you.

This is her principle.

But in reality, she never indiscriminately kills.

”The grudge of ten thousand years is indeed a bit distant for you.” Yin Chen slightly nodded his head. How old is Mu Qingge? Only in her tens. It could be said that anyone in this Immortal Dew Pavilion is older than her.

Moreover, she doesn’t have a strong sense of belonging to the Mu Clan, so it’s no wonder she doesn’t have hatred in her heart.

Yin Chen gradually understood Mu Qingge’s words.

Right now, the Divine Clan hasn’t done anything to her, so even if she wants to revive the Mu Clan, she doesn’t feel there’s any hatred involved. However, if one day, anyone hinders her while she’s doing this, or even tries to kill her, she won’t hold back.

If they need to be killed, she will kill; if they need to be extinguished, she will extinguish!

She acts according to her own heart, not by the principles others think she should follow.

In this respect, Mu Qingge actually resembles the Demon Clan more than the Divine Clan.

...

”Having met the Princess today, Tianyin is already satisfied. I hope one day, we can meet again by fate.” After Mu Tianyin finished speaking, he turned and left with Mu Lin.

Mu Lin, utterly puzzled, followed Mu Tianyin away.

Chu Nian only watched them leave without showing any other expression.

Once Mu Tianyin and Mu Lin walked out of Immortal Dew Pavilion, Mu Lin couldn’t help but ask: ”Young Master, weren’t we supposed to make a move on Princess Chu Nian?”

Indeed, wasn’t the original plan to have Princess Chu Nian look at Mu Tianyin with different eyes, and then use her to reach the core of Wuhua Domain?

Why did they leave after barely exchanging a few words?

”This Princess Chu Nian is truly extraordinary. Today was enough; staying any longer would arouse her suspicion.” Mu Tianyin said in great spirits.

Mu Lin was still confused.

Seeing his chaotic expression, Mu Tianyin uncharacteristically explained, ”Originally, I thought she was no different from ordinary women. Although she has seen countless talented young men, it does not necessarily means she is unmoved. However, after meeting her, I changed my mind. Such a woman cannot be swayed by a single meeting. Today, I wanted to leave an impression on her. When I reach Wuhua Palace and see her again, it will be easier to get what I want.”

Mu Lin half understood, but roughly grasped Mu Tianyin’s intention.

In simple terms, it’s hard to gather information from her as a stranger. As long as they left a good impression on Chu Nian today, she wouldn’t reject them at the next meeting.

However, Mu Lin was still somewhat puzzled by Mu Tianyin’s change in attitude.

His personality is not one to wait around. He would typically seize what he wants directly.

In the Immortal Dew Pavilion, that Divine person whom Mu Tianyin rendered idiotic was carefully hidden by Mu Lin and was not discovered. Chu Nian’s door remained open, and she sat motionless in her chair.

”Princess, didn’t he say he had something to say? Why did he leave instead?” Her maid beside her asked suspiciously.

Chu Nian faintly smiled, explaining to her, ”He already said it.”

”Said it?” The maid was surprised. When did he say it? She didn’t hear it.

Chu Nian smiled at her, ”Didn’t he recognize me, isn’t that already speaking? What he wanted to say is his intelligence, his extraordinary talent, his keen observation.”

The maid suddenly realized and nodded, ”Ah! I understand; he is the Princess’s admirer. This meeting was just to make the Princess see him in a different light.”

Chu Nian faintly smiled, not showing a shy expression because of the maid’s words.

Instead, there was just a hint of helplessness between her brows.

She indeed left with an impression of Mu Tianyin, but it was not the kind Mu Tianyin had hoped for.

Chu Nian stood up, lightly moved her steps, went to the window, and gazed at the scenery outside, unconsciously murmuring: ’My heart has been as calm as still water for thousands of years, how could it be easily stirred by others?’

At this moment, the maid who was playing the zither outside walked in respectfully, saying, ”Princess, I’m back.”

Chu Nian collected her thoughts, turned, and said to the two maids, ”Mm, let’s go back.”

Return!

The two maids exchanged glances, their eyes showing some surprise.

They had only been in Wuhua City for half a day, and now they were going back?
