Chapter 1082: Chapter 167: The Divine Emperor and the Little Divine Emperor (4 Updates)

Such a carefree disciple of the Huan Yue Domain as Mu Qingge is truly rare.

Qian Shui looked at her and shook his head with a faint smile.

However, before the two could take a step, a light came from afar, landing in front of Mu Qingge and Qian Shui, blocking their path.

The newcomer was dressed in white, likely a white-clothed disciple of the Huan Yue Domain.

He stood before them, respectfully bowed to Mu Qingge and Qian Shui, and lowered his eyes, saying: "Young God Emperor, Brother Qian Shui." Then, he turned to bow to Mu Qingge again: "Young God Emperor, the God Emperor asks that you immediately proceed to the Divine Emperor Palace upon your return."

Mu Qingge raised her brows, noticing Qian Shui smiling at her, she turned her gaze towards him too.

Their gazes met in mid-air momentarily.

Qian Shui chuckled, "It seems I should go check on the situation myself. The God Emperor has summoned you, go without worry, don’t fret over those two, with your orders, the eldest young master and the others are surely well taken care of."

Mu Qingge nodded slightly, "Alright, then I’ll trouble you."

"I told you, until I’m able to defeat you, I’ll follow you, so you needn’t be so polite to me." Qian Shui looked at Mu Qingge with a serious expression.

Mu Qingge was momentarily stunned, shook her head with a smile, and said to him, "When you see those two, if they are not cultivating, take them to Tong Teng, I will visit them later."

"Alright." Qian Shui nodded.

After explaining clearly to Qian Shui, Mu Qingge proceeded towards the Divine Emperor Palace.

The Divine Emperor Palace on the cloud-covered mountain peak looked as majestic and magnificent as when first seen. Mu Qingge soared through the clouds, using divine power to lift herself, traversing through the air, slowly landing on the square outside the Divine Emperor Palace.

This place remained as desolate and lonely as ever.

Compared to other Divine Emperor Palaces, the Divine Emperor Palace of Huan Yue Domain seemed particularly devoid of life. Not even guarding disciples were seen. The entire palace seemed occupied only by the Huan Yue God Emperor.

Looking at the open palace door, Mu Qingge lifted her hand to brush her robe and stepped inside.

What does the Huan Yue God Emperor want with her?

She had a rough idea. After all, whether it’s killing the Mu Clan’s young master, dealing with the Mu Clan’s Qiankun Device, or handling the Divine Strategy Lower Volume, these were matters she needed to clarify.

How should she respond?

Mu Qingge hasn’t thought about it. She always felt the Huan Yue God Emperor was hard to predict, so rather than guess, she’d deal with it as it came.

Crossing the square, Mu Qingge ascended the steps into the partially open palace doors and entered the Divine Emperor Palace.

Her footsteps echoed in the quiet hall, surrounded by silence, without a shadow in sight. Walking through the hall, Mu Qingge unconsciously cast her gaze towards the high Divine Emperor’s Throne.

She thought the Huan Yue God Emperor would still be lazily sitting on the throne, waiting for her.

However, reaching the platform where the throne was placed, she was stunned. The throne was empty, with no sound from the Huan Yue God Emperor.

"Come to the rear hall, Third." Suddenly, the Huan Yue God Emperor’s voice sounded in Mu Qingge’s ear.

Mu Qingge slightly raised her eyebrows, turned towards the rear hall.

Mu Qingge had never been to the rear hall of the Huan Yue Domain Divine Emperor Palace. Along the path to the rear hall, she took a careful look at the palace this time.

Having visited the Divine Emperor Palaces of the Wuhua and Purple Light God Emperors during her travels, now coming to the Huan Yue Domain’s Divine Emperor Palace, she truly felt it was simplistic compared to the others.

Not lacking in grandeur, but the furnishings were too few, giving an empty feeling.

Entering the rear hall, she heard the sound of flowing water.

She froze, with some similar experience, causing her expression to turn slightly odd. ’Could the Huan Yue God Emperor be bathing?’ Imagining the scene of the Huan Yue God Emperor bathing, Mu Qingge hesitated to step further.

Just as Mu Qingge was wavering, the Huan Yue God Emperor’s voice sounded again: "Why don’t you come in?"

Mu Qingge’s lips twitched, raised a hand to touch her nose, inwardly muttering: ’Alright, since you don’t mind, why should I feel embarrassed by watching?’

While thinking this, yet upon entering, Mu Qingge’s gaze lowered, avoiding the surroundings and not seeking the Huan Yue God Emperor’s figure.

Inwardly, Mu Qingge sighed self-deprecatingly, ’This is the first time my eyes have been so disciplined. Truly, I’m still a responsible person. With a family, one must restrain oneself.’

The sound of water grew louder, seemingly indicating her nearing the water’s edge.

"Where are you going?" Suddenly, a teasing, lazy voice rang out.

Mu Qingge halted her steps, lifted her head, turning her gaze towards the voice’s source.

In sight, was a figure cloaked in mysteriously luxurious purple.

Yet, this purple outfit lacked the refinement and formality of what she’d previously seen. It was a loose purple brocade robe, without any excess adornments, resembling undergarments.

The collar was very loose, revealing clear outlines of the chest and collarbones.

Black hair lazily draped over the shoulders, hanging down to the waist. The waist was casually bound with a silver cord, seemingly easily undone with a gentle pull, dropping the robe.

Upon further inspection, the first thing one notices are those lazy phoenix-like eyes, that face as handsome as Si Mo’s; maintaining the initial captivating allure.

Mu Qingge relaxed inwardly. At least the Huan Yue God Emperor wasn’t as she imagined, bathing.

And the misunderstanding water sound was not bathing water, but rather a multi-tiered pool in the rear hall, the sound coming from waterfalls.

"Come over here." Huan Yue God Emperor spoke.

He set the wine cup on the table, letting out a light clink.

Mu Qingge’s eyes flickered as she walked towards him. In front of the deity’s couch, was a cushion, seemingly prepared for her.

She stopped beside the cushion, lifting her hands to shoulder level, lowering her eyes, she spoke: "God Emperor."

"Sit." Huan Yue God Emperor gestured to the cushion.

Mu Qingge nodded slightly, went to the cushion, lifted her robe’s edge, and sat cross-legged on the cushion.

Her back straightened, even before the Huan Yue God Emperor, never slouching. When she looked at the Huan Yue God Emperor, he was also gazing at her.

Mu Qingge’s clear calm eyes startled the Huan Yue God Emperor, momentarily forgetting to speak.

"God Emperor?" Mu Qingge called out, surprised.

Huan Yue God Emperor’s gaze shifted subtly, discreetly averting his eyes. He swept a sleeve, brushing past the wine cup. "I heard you enjoy wine?"
