Chapter 1038: Chapter 123: Our Tribe’s Young Master!

Hiss—!

Yin Ping drew in a cold breath and couldn’t help but glance Mu Qingge up and down.

In her calm demeanor, he bowed to Mu Qingge, saying, "Congratulations, Small God Emperor, you’ve accomplished a great feat!"

His exaggerated expression made Mu Qingge inwardly sneer.

However, she didn’t reveal a hint of it. She simply replied, "Great feat? All I know is that many have died in the Nine Heavens. And they were disciples of the Four Divine Domains of the West Divine Land."

What!

"Small God Emperor, what did you say?" Mu Qingge’s words made Yin Ping detect something amiss, and he quickly asked.

This time, it wasn’t Mu Qingge who responded, but Yin Chen.

"Is there something wrong with your hearing? My family’s Small God Emperor said it very clearly; something major happened in the Nine Heavens, and you bunch of useless fools failed to investigate it and didn’t provide timely assistance," Yin Chen said unceremoniously.

’What does Your Excellency mean by what happened in the Nine Heavens?’ As Yin Chen’s words fell, the person responsible for guarding this area from the Purple Light Domain hurried over, followed by several disciples from the Purple Light Domain.

Mu Qingge looked up at him briefly without speaking.

That proud stance didn’t seem improper. It was as if this was precisely the demeanor the Small God Emperor should have.

"I ask you, not long ago, did several thousand Divine Domain disciples enter the Nine Heavens?" Yin Chen opened his mouth to ask.

The leader immediately nodded. "Many disciples entered the Nine Heavens, and among them were Palace Disciples."

"Our Small God Emperor was training in the Nine Heavens when suddenly hearing the sounds of battle. Upon rushing over, we saw many Divine Domain disciples engaged in combat with another group. Hearing the Divine Domain disciples’ names, these seemed to be Mu Clan remnants. We intended to help but were stopped by this person." Yin Chen raised his hand, revealing Mu Tianyin’s head.

Suddenly producing a head, the Purple Light Domain disciples who were concentrating on listening were startled and took a step back.

"Who is this person?" The leader pointed at Mu Tianyin’s mangled face and asked.

Yin Ping seized the chance to reply, "Seems to be the Young Master of the Mu Clan."

"Mu Clan Young Master!" The leader was also surprised.

Yin Chen continued, "We don’t know this person’s exact identity. We only heard those from the Mu Clan call him Young Master. Coincidentally, our Small God Emperor was recently in the Wuhua Domain in South Divine Land celebrating the Divine Emperor Wuhua’s birthday. At that time, there was an incident at Wuhua Palace, and our Young Master, while accompanying Princess Chu Nian in capturing the culprits, encountered this man and had some conflicts. In short, we intended to help but were blocked by this person leading several experts, ultimately resulting in this person falling to our Small God Emperor’s hand. However, by the time we arrived, the Divine Domain disciples also..." After speaking, he pretended regretfully and shook his head.

"Also, what?" the leader hurriedly asked. Yin Chen’s tone and the spoken words made him feel something ominous.

Indeed—

Yin Chen’s next words almost caused him to faint.

"By the time we cleared the obstacles and arrived, several thousand Divine Domain disciples, several thousand Divine Clan elites, all were completely wiped out!" Yin Chen sighed and said.

Boom—!

These words fell like a thunderbolt, leaving the Purple Light Domain disciples’ hearts in utter desolation.

Such a major incident occurred during their watch!

Regardless, they could hardly escape blame!

"Quick! Follow me!" The leader of the group hurriedly shouted orders, as if he could do something to mitigate the error to save his life.

Many disciples from the Purple Light Domain hurriedly left with him, even leaving no time to attend to Mu Qingge.

Yin Ping remained standing, his eyes flickering, and said to Mu Qingge, "The Small God Emperor has just gone through a battle and certainly needs rest. Why don’t I escort you back to your temporary residence for some rest?"

Mu Qingge’s gaze fell on him, revealing a semblance of a smile, and she nodded.

This Yin Ping was quite shrewd.

He knew that rushing over now would be useless and that if there were another ambush, he might fall into danger. So he deliberately stayed behind, keeping her, not only avoiding the impression of being cowardly but rather seeming like he made a contribution.

Because he stayed with Mu Qingge, the sole witness.

Yin Ping noticed Mu Qingge’s cooperation and felt grateful, becoming even more attentive.

After settling them in, he did not leave, staying by Mu Qingge like a servant to receive her orders.

However, Mu Qingge did not make things difficult for him, nor did she drive him away, allowing him to stay, whether his intentions were to curry favor or to monitor her.

Mu Qingge immediately began meditating to recover her energy consumed in the battle with Mu Tianyin.

They arrived by evening. By the next morning, the people from the Purple Light Domain returned one after another. Each returning individual’s face was serious and unpleasant.

Yin Ping wanted to inquire, but the leader from the Purple Light Domain hurriedly approached Mu Qingge.

"Small God Emperor, why in the Nine Heavens are there no corpses of the Mu Clan remnants?" He couldn’t wait to ask the moment he arrived.

Mu Qingge opened her eyes, her gaze calmly looking at him, and said with some doubt, "No corpses from the Mu Clan?" Saying this, she feigned contemplation for a moment, then said, "Perhaps they were carried away by the living members of the Mu Clan, fearing any clues might be left behind."

Her words were reasonable.

The person listened, nodding repeatedly in agreement, saying, "The Small God Emperor’s analysis is indeed reasonable. It must be the case." Saying this, he hammered his fist on the table and gritted his teeth, saying, "How despicable! They let those Mu Clan remnants escape like this!"

Then he asked, "Small God Emperor, did you clearly see how many people the Mu Clan sent?"

Mu Qingge replied, "I don’t know the exact number, but about a thousand were sent. However, they seemed to have employed some Forbidden Technique, making escape impossible and preventing reinforcements from entering. I came out unscathed thanks to the Mu Clan Young Master who was not within the Forbidden Technique, probably seen by me inadvertently while observing secretly."

"Unfortunately, those gone for training had already returned, saying they didn’t wish to be caught up in the fighting, and none saw what happened."

Upon hearing this, Mu Qingge’s gaze subtly shifted, and she calmly added, "Sounds of fighting? I did hear some, but it was too far away, so I did not pay much attention."

The person didn’t delve deeper, only looked seriously and sternly at Mu Qingge, saying, "This matter is indeed significant, and the Small God Emperor is the only witness. I’m afraid we must ask the Small God Emperor to accompany us back to the Purple Light Domain."

"Alright." Mu Qingge agreed decisively.

...

That day, Mu Qingge peacefully rested on the Purple Light Domain’s territory. She had anticipated seeing the Four Divine Domains’ scenery of the West Divine Land.

But unexpectedly, by nightfall, the Tianlu arrived with two people appearing before her.

And as soon as those two appeared, they kneeled on one knee, addressing Mu Qingge, "Greetings, Our Young Master of the Clan!"
