Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 1099: Chapter 184: What Is Your Relationship? (First Update)

”Why is it you?”

Mu Qingge and the woman who rushed out both exclaimed simultaneously after realizing each other’s identities.

The astonishment in their voices was identical.

Mu Qingge withdrew her hand in time, and the other woman also pulled back her move. They both calmed down and faced each other.

”Chu Nian, what are you doing here?” Mu Qingge scrutinized her, asking again in confusion. The woman standing opposite her was indeed the Princess of Wuhua Domain in the South Divine Land, Chu Nian.

While Chu Nian was delighted to see Mu Qingge, her expression became more complex, biting her lip but not answering Mu Qingge’s question.

Mu Qingge was bewildered by her expression and asked, somewhat puzzled, ”What’s wrong?” As she spoke, she raised a hand to touch her own cheek.

There shouldn’t be anything wrong with me, should there?

Thinking about her rashness, Mu Qingge presumed Chu Nian was upset and hurriedly said, ”Earlier, um, I’m sorry. I thought no one was in the room.”

When the earlier incident was mentioned, Chu Nian’s cheeks reddened, and her gaze was a mix of embarrassment and anger before it turned into a sigh. ”It’s fine. You didn’t do it intentionally.”

Seeing that Chu Nian didn’t dwell on the topic, Mu Qingge felt relieved.

If Chu Nian insisted that she be responsible, she really wouldn’t know what to do.

Since the room was being used by Chu Nian, Mu Qingge naturally shouldn’t linger any longer, especially since her current identity was as a man. She exited the room, not expecting Chu Nian to follow her out.

Mu Qingge raised her eyebrows slightly and then heard Chu Nian say, ”Let’s take a walk together.” Chu Nian lowered her gaze, raised her hand, and tucked the strands of hair beside her ear behind it.

Mu Qingge nodded lightly, and the two walked side by side in this side hall of the Phoenix Heaven Domain.

In this side hall, no maid was arranged to serve. It was as if in the vast hall, only the two of them were present.

Reaching a pavilion, Mu Qingge and Chu Nian sat down.

There was nothing on the table before them, and this was neither the Huan Yue Domain nor the Wuhua Domain; no one was there to take orders from them. Smiling, Mu Qingge waved a hand, and two small wine pots appeared in front of them.

Seeing the wine pots, Chu Nian smiled and unabashedly reached out to grab a wine pot, opening the lid.

Instantly, a gentle wine fragrance wafted out; it wasn’t the strong liquor that Mu Qingge often drank but rather the fruit wine Chu Nian preferred. At this time, Mu Qingge opened her wine pot as well, and the wafting aroma made Chu Nian slightly frown and helplessly say, ”Only you have such a love for such throat-burning strong liquor. Even my father, who can be considered a wine lover, doesn’t drink anything so strong.”

”I’m used to it.” Mu Qingge smiled faintly.

The two wine pots lightly clinked in midair. They exchanged smiles and began to drink.

At this moment, the maid who had left Mu Qingge before hurried back, searching around the side hall and coincidentally witnessing the scene of the two drinking in the pavilion.

The harmony between Mu Qingge and Chu Nian made her purse her lips. She didn’t approach; instead, she observed from the shadows.

After a moment, she bit her lip and then turned to run outside, neither looking for Mu Qingge nor telling her which room to stay.

The maid’s hurried return didn’t catch the attention of Mu Qingge and Chu Nian.

After their drink, Chu Nian finally said, ”Previously, I went to the Purple Light Domain.”

Mu Qingge looked up at Chu Nian, playing with the wine pot in her hand but didn’t reply.

Chu Nian slowly raised her eyes, her phoenix-like eyes reflecting a beautiful luster like autumn water. She looked at Mu Qingge and said, ”I went with my father, whose intention was to retrieve what the Young Master of the Mu Clan had stolen. Unfortunately, it wasn’t found.”

Mu Qingge raised the wine pot to her lips and took another sip, playfully saying, ”Oh? Wasn’t it? I handed the Young Master’s Qiankun Device to the Purple Light God Emperor completely intact.”

”No.” Chu Nian shook her head, explaining, ”Perhaps he didn’t put the object in the Qiankun Device. Anyway, my father was furious and almost had a fight with the Purple Light God Emperor.”

She chuckled aloud.

Mu Qingge lightly raised her eyebrow, her mouth curling into a smile.

”I don’t care about their matters. However, I did hear about something interesting in the Purple Light Domain.” Chu Nian suddenly restrained her smile but still carried an inexplicable smile at the corner of her mouth as she looked at Mu Qingge.

”What was it?” Mu Qingge asked with a calm demeanor.

”I heard you encountered your wife from the Lower Realm in the Purple Light Domain?” Chu Nian asked. Her eyes stayed focused on Mu Qingge’s expression, unwilling to miss any slight change.

Mu Qingge intended to explain to her that the mention of a wife was merely to get someone from the Purple Light God Emperor. However, before she could speak, she suddenly met Chu Nian’s eyes, saw the apprehension there, and swallowed her words, instead nodding as a response.

Seeing Mu Qingge confess to this, a layer of lost emotion flashed in Chu Nian’s eyes. But that layer of loss quickly disappeared, and she smiled again, saying to Mu Qingge, ”Congratulations.”

”Thank you.” Mu Qingge replied calmly.

Earlier, she had seen a familiar emotion in Chu Nian’s eyes. That emotion, she had seen before in Qin Yiyao, Xi Ya, and Xi Qianxue’s eyes.

She didn’t want to give Chu Nian any chance for misunderstanding, so she had to admit.

As for her identity as a woman, now was not the time to reveal it. After all, the Mu Clan had just been subdued, and people’s sentiments were unstable. Also, she was now the junior God Emperor of the Huan Yue Domain; revealing her female identity might invite many troubles. At least, she should first finish dealing with some major issues at hand.

Quickly thinking in her mind, Mu Qingge realized she had been in the Divine Demon Continent for several years now. During these years, she mostly spent her time cultivating, unwilling to waste any opportunity to improve herself.

Linchuan Realm, Middle Ancient Realm...

No matter where she wished to return, she first had to reach the high rank of the Saint Realm; otherwise, she couldn’t tear the space to return.

”Qingge, what are you thinking about?” Mu Qingge’s sudden distraction prompted Chu Nian to ask.

Mu Qingge withdrew her thoughts, looked at her, and shook her head.

Just then, a maid walked over, standing in the distance and addressed both of them, ”Mu Junior God Emperor, Princess Chu Nian, the Divine Emperor requests your presence.”

Mu Qingge and Chu Nian exchanged a glance, both feeling a bit strange.

...

In the Divine Emperor Palace, the maid who had guided Mu Qingge was kneeling in the hall, reporting to Li Yuan. ”... Divine Emperor, the maid previously forgot to remind the Junior God Emperor that Princess Chu Nian was still staying in the side hall, so she returned to remind him, but when the maid got back, she found the two of them drinking harmoniously in the pavilion. The maid didn’t dare to stay long, so she returned to report to the Divine Emperor.”

Li Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, slowly clenching her fist, murmuring, ”What kind of relationship do you have?”
