Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 1014: Chapter 99: I’ve Finally Waited for You

”Where are they?”

”Why are they gone!”

”Quick, pursue them!”

The sudden disappearance of Mu Tianyin and the others left the Wuhua Domain disciples, who had been about to swarm, without a target.

”Don’t bother looking here. They’ve left the Wuhua Palace. Deliver orders to seal off Wuhua City and set ambushes outside the city; we must find the thief.” Chu Nian instructed everyone.

The disciples of Wuhua Domain quickly followed her orders and dispersed in different directions.

Once everyone had left, Chu Nian turned her eyes towards Mu Qingge and asked, ”What did his words mean? Also, there’s truly nothing between him and me.”

The first sentence referred to Mu Tianyin’s question, ’Do you know who he is?’ as he left. The second part was Chu Nian explaining to Mu Qingge.

Why explain at all?

Even Chu Nian herself couldn’t understand, as she actually never cared about such things, but didn’t want Mu Qingge to misunderstand anything.

Mu Qingge looked at her and smiled, saying, ”I don’t know what he meant either. This person appeared out of nowhere, speaking harshly and rudely, who knows what he intends.”

Chu Nian thought carefully and nodded her head, furrowing her brow. ”True. Such a person, with ulterior motives, cannot be trusted.”

With that thought, she threw Mu Tianyin’s remark out of her mind.

Poor Mu Tianyin, leaving such a remark was meant to make the people of Wuhua Domain suspicious of Mu Qingge’s identity, to sow discord between Mu Qingge and Chu Nian.

However, Mu Qingge resolved this trouble efficiently with just one sentence.

Having relieved Chu Nian’s suspicions, Mu Qingge sneered inwardly. ’Who am I? My origin is clear and easy to verify, especially with Huan Yue God Emperor around, who dares to challenge?’

Looking at Mu Tianyin who once wantonly humiliated her in Cold Inch, now appearing like a stray dog in front of her, Mu Qingge felt greatly satisfied.

It seemed the urge to kill him wasn’t as pressing now.

She wasn’t in a hurry, she wanted to torture him well before killing him, taking away everything he cared about and desired piece by piece.

”Qingge, we wronged you in this matter.” Chu Nian said to Mu Qingge.

Mu Qingge smiled faintly and shook her head, saying, ”It’s alright, you have your duties and must handle things fairly.”

Chu Nian furrowed her brow, her gaze serious. ”But, we still let that thief escape. I don’t know what exactly he stole that made father so angry.”

”You should hurry to report to the God Emperor; I’ll head back first.” Mu Qingge said to Chu Nian.

Chu Nian nodded quickly, saying to her, ”Alright then, go back and rest first. I will report everything to my father and prove your innocence.”

...

Mu Qingge returned alone to her temporary side hall. Upon reaching the entrance, two servant slaves from inside the hall came out to greet her, and she turned around to say to the two behind her, ”Much appreciated.”

The two disciples from Wuhua Domain respectfully saluted her and withdrew.

They were ordered to escort Mu Qingge back, and now that the task was complete, they naturally had to leave.

Mu Qingge entered her room, intending to rest for a bit when suddenly Hou’s voice echoed in her mind. ’Girl, do you know what the female corpse you saw that day was?’

Mu Qingge raised an eyebrow, not understanding why Hou would bring up the matter; though Chu Nian’s Wutong Zither had given her some connections. ’It’s the Phoenix Clan.’

’Correct. It’s a Phoenix! You might know that the Phoenix Clan doesn’t marry outside. One phoenix, paired for life, forever companions. Every ten thousand years, phoenixes undergo Nirvana, losing previous memories. If the first person they see isn’t their mate when they open eyes, they’ll completely forget the past and fall in love with the first person they see.’ Hou continued.

Mu Qingge frowned. Hou wouldn’t bring this up without reason; there must be something hidden within.

She carefully reconsidered Hou’s words.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she said to him: ’Could it be the woman in Little Leaf Pavilion was secretly brought to Wuhua Domain by Wuhua God Emperor?’

Could she really speculate like this...

’This woman from the Phoenix Clan, after Nirvana saw Wuhua God Emperor first, so she fell in love willingly and followed him to Wuhua Domain, having offspring. But why did that woman die? Isn’t it said members of the Phoenix Clan have long lives and are hard to die?’ Mu Qingge pondered.

’No, you’re wrong.’ Hou corrected.

’Wrong?’ Mu Qingge frowned.

’This Princess Chu Nian is a genuine little Phoenix, however, she has yet to undergo Nirvana. Moreover, the first Nirvana might result in losing prior memories, but it’s also possible they could recall past memories. That female corpse isn’t dead but sealed with Divine Power, in a state of suspended animation, even you as a Great Alchemist were deceived.’ Hou’s words shocked Mu Qingge.

Mu Qingge thought to herself, ’You mean that while pregnant, the woman underwent Nirvana. Later, she was brought here by Wuhua God Emperor; Chu Nian isn’t Wuhua God Emperor’s child, and Wuhua God Emperor feared she’d forget him after Nirvana or remember past events, thus selfishly sealed her, preventing her Nirvana?’

’That’s very possible. However, regarding what truly happened, I’m not sure either. Just remember, Princess Chu Nian possesses strong Phoenix Bloodline, suggesting a high status yet to undergo her first Nirvana, pending awakening. Once she awakens, she’ll know her lineage. Following the Phoenix Clan’s customs, she’ll return to the Demon Forest to seek her people. If you befriend her now, you might receive help from the Phoenix Clan in the future.’ Hou advised.

Mu Qingge chuckled lightly, ’Chu Nian is just over five thousand years old, still a few thousand years from Nirvana.’

’The first Nirvana can occur without waiting a full ten thousand years if the opportunity arises.’ Hou added.

’Let’s talk later.’ Mu Qingge replied. ’Right now, I don’t have the leisure to consider their father-daughter situation. I need to leave Wuhua Domain to reunite with Yin Chen in West Divine Land, my matter with Mu Tianyin isn’t over yet.’

’Alright, it’s your decision.’ Hou said and then fell silent.

Mu Tianyin’s escape greatly angered Wuhua God Emperor. He even notified all Divine Domains about the resurgence of Mu Clan remnants, requesting all Divine Domains to assist in capturing them.

Mu Qingge didn’t hastily leave, choosing to depart only after two days.

As she was heading back to West Divine Land, Mu Tianyin had already returned and was heading to his lair.

Uneventfully, he returned to the underground cave, unaware that after his entry, a faint fox silhouette appeared outside the dilapidated courtyard.

”If not for Mu Qingge, I would have obtained it.” Mu Tianyin recounted his experiences in Wuhua Domain to the Heavenly Luogar.

The Heavenly Luogar listened calmly, though inwardly he mused, ”Finally, I’ve awaited your arrival.”
