Chapter 1033: Chapter 118: Do You Dare to Seize It?

Mu Qingge raised an eyebrow, looking at him and said, "What are you suspecting? And what proof do you seek?"

The man’s gaze darkened slightly, suddenly pointing to Mu Tianyin’s corpse, he asked Mu Qingge, "Then who is he? Why did you kill him?"

Before Mu Qingge could speak, he added, "Don’t think about denying it, we all saw the fight just now."

As he finished speaking, others nodded in agreement.

Mu Qingge looked at them and only then realized that these people had been around for some time, just keeping their distance. It was only after the battle ended that they approached.

But she was too immersed in her revenge against Mu Tianyin to notice anyone approaching, let alone so many people. This was her oversight.

"Could it be that he is the real Young Master of the Huan Yue Domain?" The person questioning Mu Qingge spoke again.

Mu Qingge followed his words, turning her eyes to Mu Tianyin’s corpse. The Linglong Spear was still lodged in his forehead, his face already destroyed beyond recognition, only a vague outline of his features remained.

With his appearance ruined, it indeed aroused suspicion.

Glancing once more, Mu Qingge nonchalantly withdrew her gaze. She said, "He wanted to kill me, so I killed him. As for whether I am the Young Master of the Huan Yue Domain, do you want to accompany me to the Huan Yue Domain? I suppose only the Huan Yue God Emperor’s personal testimony will convince you?"

She brushed over the enmity with Mu Tianyin and his identity.

She brought up the Huan Yue God Emperor to instill some fear in this group.

Indeed, when she said this, those who were pressuring her looked startled, pursing their lips silently. The others also fell silent, glancing at each other.

They could question her, but they dared not question the God Emperor.

Because in the Four Seas Divine Land, the God Emperor was the highest existence, all were gods above gods.

"Then why did he want to kill you?" After a while, the man spoke again. It seemed that unless he got to the bottom of it, he would not rest.

Mu Qingge could see that his doubts had not vanished, but now he was apprehensive, unable to act rashly.

"How should I know?" Mu Qingge answered indifferently. "I came here hearing about matters of the Nine Heavens, to have a look, and to train. Who knew, I would run into a lunatic as soon as I arrived, attacking me without a word. He wanted to kill me, should I have just stood there and let him?"

Mu Qingge’s explanation was flawless.

She understood that the simpler the explanation, the fewer the flaws. Sometimes explaining too much exposed more weaknesses in the narrative.

Mu Qingge’s response left the opposing party speechless.

However, they still refused to leave.

Mu Qingge raised an eyebrow, asking, "Now, is it my turn to ask you a few questions?"

The person full of doubts about Mu Qingge’s identity squinted cautiously, saying, "Go ahead." He did not refer to Mu Qingge as the Young Master, indicating his lingering skepticism about her identity.

However, addressing her as ’Your Excellency’ also showed he was beginning to be wary of her.

"Though the Nine Heavens is a trial ground, you all coming so aggressively still seems too strange. Why are you here? What is your purpose? Why did you appear and immediately harbor suspicion and hostility towards me?" Mu Qingge asked.

As she spoke, her gaze was clear, without any falsehood.

She seemed to be genuinely asking the questions, appearing very innocent, seeking an explanation for herself.

Her demeanor was truly not one of fabrication.

After a brief silence, the man gazed at Mu Qingge’s expression and slowly answered her questions. "We came because people from the Four Divine Domains received the same message. The message claimed that the remnants of the Mu Clan, despised by all in the Four Seas Divine Land, would appear here today. Moreover, the person appearing was said to be the so-called Young Master of the Mu Clan. Therefore, we were ordered to come and ascertain the truth of this message. If false, to hold those spreading rumors accountable. If true, to capture the Young Master of the Mu Clan and bring them back."

He paused there, carefully observing Mu Qingge’s expression, yet found no abnormality.

It was as though she was simply listening earnestly to what he was saying.

Seeing no clue, he had no choice but to continue, "When we arrived, only the two of you were in the Nine Heavens, and you were in an intense fight. Now one of you is dead, and your identity is unclear. How could we not be suspicious of you?"

"I have already presented my Identity Token," Mu Qingge reminded.

The man, however, sneered, "How do we know if you killed someone and assumed their identity?" He pointedly glanced at Mu Tianyin’s corpse, as if mocking that a body with such a disfigured face must be concealing its identity, or why else?

Mu Qingge was utterly speechless.

Mu Tianyin’s face being in this state has nothing to do with me!

’What a destined nemesis! Even in death, he still has to trap me once more,’ Mu Qingge complained inwardly.

But, she still calmly explained to the crowd, "I don’t care if you believe it or not, his face ended up like this has nothing to do with me, it seems he used some kind of secret technique to forcibly enhance his strength. It’s your business to search for Mu Clan remnants, it has nothing to do with me. Since there’s no evidence that I’m a Mu Clan remnant, I shall take my leave."

She really could not be bothered to continue dealing with these people and saw quick departure as the best plan.

Yet, before she could even take a step forward, the man coldly said, "Hold on."

Mu Qingge looked at him, asking playfully, "What else can I learn from your instructions?"

The man, with a deep gaze, said, "Since on this Nine Heavens, there were only the two of you. If the intelligence was true, and you are not the Mu Clan remnant, then the person you killed must be the Young Master of the Mu Clan."

Mu Qingge raised an eyebrow but did not respond.

She could tell the implication of his words was more than that.

The man stepped closer to Mu Qingge, staring deeply at her. Suddenly, he clasped his hands together and bowed, paying her a formal salute.

Mu Qingge’s eyes flickered slightly, showing no emotion.

After the salute, the man asked, "May I ask, Young Master, during your battle with this person, did you discover anything important?"

Mu Qingge narrowed her eyes, locking gaze with him, their eyes clashed fiercely in midair, neither yielding. She smiled playfully, asking, "What important thing are you referring to?"

"Regardless of what it is, as long as it came from this person, we ask that the Young Master hand it over. After all, this is our West Divine Land, not your East Divine Land," the man suddenly declared aloud.

Mu Qingge’s lips curled into a cold smile, her narrowed eyes full of icy disdain. "Are you threatening me?"

But the man said, "I heard that the Young Master of the Huan Yue Domain also has the surname Mu, maybe you’re a Mu Clan remnant infiltrating our Divine Domain. If the Young Master does not cooperate, don’t blame us for being discourteous."

Mu Qingge’s smile widened, and she said to him, "Even if what you say is on me, do you dare to snatch it?"
