Chapter 1051: Chapter 136: Bring Something to Exchange! (Third Update)

"Don’t be afraid, I’m here." Mu Qingge whispered reassuringly into Xi Qianxue’s ear, gently patting her back twice.

Don’t be afraid!

Xi Qianxue felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude. Every time she felt lost and helpless, whenever she heard Mu Qingge say these words to her, her heart would inexplicably become calm, and she wasn’t afraid of anything anymore.

Just now, when she heard Mu Qingge claim that she was her wife in the Lower Realm, even though she knew it was a lie, she felt a surge of ecstasy.

"Leave everything to me." Mu Qingge whispered another sentence in her ear.

Then, she pulled Xi Qianxue out of her embrace and turned to look at Xuan Qiang, saying, "Old Seven, could you please take care of my wife for me?"

She emphasized the word ’wife,’ as if clarifying Xi Qianxue’s identity again, or perhaps deliberately provoking the Purple Light God Emperor.

Xuan Qiang nodded and walked over to Xi Qianxue’s side.

"Qingge." Xi Qianxue looked at Mu Qingge with concern, holding onto her hands, unwilling to let go.

That expression truly resembled a wife worrying about her husband, not like a pretense, and couldn’t be faked. In the hall, no one was a fool and could naturally see this.

Instantly, various emotions rose in everyone’s hearts.

What was supposed to be an ordinary wedding banquet in the Purple Light Domain turned into such an unexpected scene, leaving them quietly as spectators. Or were they spectators?

The Purple Light God Emperor’s face was already very unsightly, his sinister eyes fixed on Mu Qingge, as if wishing to carve the flesh from her body. "You claim that she is your wife in the Lower Realm?"

Mu Qingge nodded calmly, "Yes, we were separated only because our ascension times were different, and I arrived in the Divine Land first."

"Even so, what of it? After the ascension, past ties are cut off, and now she has nothing to do with you." The Purple Light God Emperor said coldly.

Mu Qingge turned to look at Xi Qianxue, and the latter also looked back at her. The silent ’emotion’ between them was palpable to others, the lingering bonds unmistakable.

Mu Qingge gave her a reassuring look and then turned to the Purple Light God Emperor, saying, "Divine Emperor, may I have a word with you in private?"

The Purple Light God Emperor squinted, seemingly pondering what Mu Qingge was up to.

But then he thought, in this Purple Light Domain, in the Divine Emperor Palace, with Mu Qingge’s abilities, she couldn’t be up to any tricks.

So, he waved his hand, and everyone in the hall vanished, leaving only him and Mu Qingge.

Mu Qingge’s eyes suddenly narrowed.

Then the Purple Light God Emperor said slowly, "Rest assured, they are all fine. Mu Qingge, wanting to speak to me alone, are you wishing for me to kill you?"

"Kill me? Why?" Mu Qingge raised an eyebrow and said.

The Purple Light God Emperor snorted coldly, filled with malice, "You humiliated me in public and claimed my newly accepted concubine was your wife from the Lower Realm; aren’t these reasons enough for me to kill you?"

Mu Qingge showed no fear, "But since the Divine Emperor is willing to talk with me, it means you don’t really want to kill me."

The Purple Light God Emperor’s eyes flickered with a sharp glint.

"After all, the Purple Light God Emperor has numerous wives and concubines; would one more or less really matter to the Divine Emperor?" Mu Qingge said playfully.

The Purple Light God Emperor replied indifferently, "Whether it matters or not is the emperor’s concern, none of your business."

Mu Qingge said, "Divine Emperor, could you return my wife to me?"

"What if I refuse?" The Purple Light God Emperor snorted coldly.

Mu Qingge’s expression turned cold, "So the Divine Emperor is determined to part us? The Divine Emperor can have any woman, so why can’t you spare a married woman?"

The Purple Light God Emperor squinted dangerously, "Are you reminding me that the woman is no longer chaste?"

Mu Qingge chuckled lightly, her eyes filled with mockery, "Is the Divine Emperor questioning my abilities?"

The Purple Light God Emperor’s face stiffened, and his aura turned colder. He truly hated speaking with Mu Qingge, yet he couldn’t avoid it.

Mu Qingge lifted her head, maintaining a calm yet slightly arrogant demeanor. "Divine Emperor, what would it take for me to take her away, just say it."

"You indeed have some cleverness." The Purple Light God Emperor sneered.

Mu Qingge raised an eyebrow, smiling faintly, "Thank you for the compliment, Divine Emperor."

The Purple Light God Emperor restrained his expression, speaking proudly, "Hand over the item you obtained from the Mu Clan’s Young Master, and the emperor will let your woman go."

Mu Qingge’s eyes darkened, her brows knitted tightly.

Seeing her hesitant and conflicted expression, the Purple Light God Emperor couldn’t help but mock, "What? Just now, you were so in love, but now, when the emperor asks for something that never belonged to you, you’re finding it difficult to decide?"

Mu Qingge locked eyes with the Purple Light God Emperor, their gazes clashing fiercely in the air.

She smiled, "It’s not that I can’t bear to part with it, but the Divine Emperor keeps asking me to hand over something, yet I have no idea what it is."

"Even now, you’re still pretending with the emperor!" The Purple Light God Emperor’s gaze turned sombre.

Mu Qingge slowly shook her head, "How innocent am I; I truly don’t know what item the Divine Emperor desires."

"Since you don’t know, then hand over everything you obtained from the Mu Clan." The Purple Light God Emperor said impatiently.

His patience had run out. He thought that giving Mu Qingge a few days would make her reconsider and willingly hand over the item. But unexpectedly, even at this moment, she remained stubborn.

"The Divine Emperor can have it, but can you guarantee the safety of my wife and me?" Mu Qingge suddenly said.

The Purple Light God Emperor’s eyes narrowed, a gleam of excitement flashing through them. "You agreed?" More appealing than Xi Qianxue, the Fragmented Scripture of the Divine Strategy Lower Volume was his true interest.

Mu Qingge smiled bitterly, "Do I have a choice?"

"I didn’t expect you to be such a sentimental person." The Purple Light God Emperor looked at her teasingly, "Fine, I promise you. As long as you hand over everything, I will let her leave with you."

"Agreed?" Mu Qingge tentatively asked.

"The emperor keeps his word," the Purple Light God Emperor declared proudly.

"That sets my mind at ease." Mu Qingge nodded slightly, murmuring.

"The emperor has already promised you, so shouldn’t you hand over the item now?" The Purple Light God Emperor urged impatiently.

Mu Qingge raised her hand and tossed out a Qiankun Device to the Purple Light God Emperor.

The Purple Light God Emperor quickly seized it, and looking at the Qiankun Device in his hand, an immense joy erupted in his eyes.

"Divine Emperor, the Divine Sense on this is still intact, proving I have never opened it. What’s inside, I don’t know, nor can I guarantee that what you need is inside." Mu Qingge said.

Hearing this, the Purple Light God Emperor immediately used his Divine Sense to inspect. Indeed, the previous owner’s Divine Sense on the Qiankun Device remained untouched and intact.
