  How, how was this possible?

  Old Bai watched in horror as the spiritual energy he released ricocheted back, striking him repeatedly.

  The next moment, his body rapidly swelled up, just like……

  Old Bai widened his eyes in shock. W-Why couldn’t he say a single word? The spiritual energy within his dantian’s mystic niche was surging wildly, but it still wasn’t of much use.

  By this time, Old Bai could no longer care about whether he would be exposed before Heavenly Law.

  At this moment, he erupted with all his strength as a peak level-11 great spiritual cultivator in order to retaliate.

  Yet there was no point.

  At the very end, only peach blossoms filled his sight?

  *Boom!* Old Bai abruptly self-detonated in front of everyone. All the energy was contained inside the defensive boundary he had erected.

  The resulting tremors alarmed everyone inside the estate so much that they all ran over here.

  The people outside the defensive boundary were also shocked by this unanticipated self-detonation, and they stared dumbfoundedly at Old Bai’s tragic state.

  He had turned into ashes?

  This was what a true gap in strength was!

  Qiao Mu blinked. She turned to look at the red-clothed man who was sporting a pink peach blossom parasol while standing on the side with a smile.

  His body was slender and his beauty unrivalled, while his smile really was so devastatingly beautiful that a backwards glance created a rich display of lights and colors.

  He did not pale in comparison to her Mo Lian.

  An illusion! It was definitely an illusion! How could there be someone in this world who could kill a great spiritual cultivator with a single finger?

  She couldn’t do such an inconceivable thing either!

  Our dear Qiao Mu secretly pinched her arm. When she sensed no pain, she believed even more strongly that everything she saw was an illusion!

  She trotted out of the defensive boundary.

  Meanwhile, the man sporting a pink peach blossom parasol followed her with his eyes. He blinked. Eh? Why did it feel like he was getting ignored!

  As that old fogey had died, the defensive boundary he had erected also scattered to the wind.

  Qiao Mu smoothly walked out of that defensive boundary. The moment she was out, Wei Ziqin hugged her and started bawling her eyes out.

  It was truly too dangerous just now. Wei Ziqin’s heart was about to jump out of her chest.

  She had thought that she might lose this daughter completely.

  Qiao Mu patted her mom’s back expressionlessly to comfort her. She then looked up at Mu Jingrui, who was gazing back at her with a complicated look. She spat out icily, “You aren’t going yet?”


  Mu Jingrui gazed at her with a complex expression before saying with a nod, “I’ll be going now.”


  He was too ashamed to stay here any longer.

  The person he brought disobeyed his order and was actually going to kill his niece. He…… had nothing to say.

  “Qiaoqiao, I hope that you can think it over thoroughly. There is one thing that Old Bai did not say wrong. A powerful clan will certainly benefit your future journey.”


  “Do you think I need that kind of thing?” Qiao Mu swept him a frigid look.

  Mu Jingrui could not help but feel a bitter taste in his mouth.

  That was right. How would a young prodigy who could draw a deity-inviting talisman and summon a venerable immortal care about getting aid from other people?

  It was not a good thing for his youngest niece to bear a grudge against the Mu Clan of the Divine Province.

  Old Bai was too rash in handling affairs.

  “Qiaoqiao, after I return, I will naturally investigate the space talisman matrix you mentioned. If I find out that it really has to do with our Mu Clan, I will definitely ferret out the person for you to punish.”


  “I hope you can live up to your word……” Qiao Mu swept him an indifferent glance without much hope.
