Elder Kumu’s plan ultimately failed, and Elder Luoye achieved final victory. As for those who previously supported Elder Kumu, he did not exterminate them, but instead gave them a garden leave.
Qin Ruoshuang and Qin Mengyu were safe and sound. Lu Shuanger, as the High Priest’s personal disciple, naturally received the highest level of treatment.
As for the culprit Elder Kumu, his figure mysteriously disappeared.
Just as Elder Luoye was about to conclude everything, a spatial rift tore open, directly shattering his space seal. Elder Kumu was devoured by the spatial rift.
As for Qin Mu…
Young Master Qin now resembled a sleeping beauty, ahem, a sleeping handsome man, lying on the bed.
Due to forcibly using the Divine Dragon’s power to its limit, it was already a miracle that Qin Mu’s body didn’t explode. If not for the Divine Dragon blood inside him, all the meridians in his body would definitely have shattered by now.
“Mu’er…”
Qin Mengyu stayed by the bedside, her jade-like hand holding Mu’er’s slightly cold palm. Although Mu’er’s internal injuries were very serious, a mysterious force protected his heart and meridians.
It was because of this force that Qin Mu’s life was saved, but because of it, Qin Mengyu also dared not administer any pills to Mu’er. She was unsure whether this force would conflict with the medicinal strength of the pills. For now, she could only wait and see.
Qin Ruoshuang also stayed by the bedside. Her cool jade hand tidied Mu’er’s bangs, revealing a pale face. Her beautiful eyes watched over him, silently guarding.
“Divine Dragon Senior, do you think I can become a strong person?”
Having faced powerful enemies time and again, Qin Mu deeply understood his own weakness. In a world of the law of the jungle, without power, you have nothing.
“What’s wrong? Human Clan kid, why have you become so sentimental?”
The youth who usually liked to act mischievous was now a bit emo. The Divine Dragon found it curious.
“Don’t worry. Under this old man’s guidance, reaching the Heavenly Unity Stage is not a problem.”
“How long will it take?”
“At best, two to three hundred years. At worst, five to six hundred years.”
“That long?!”
“Human Clan kid, this is already very fast. With your Human Clan’s talent, normally reaching the Heavenly Unity Stage requires at least a thousand years. Now that you’ve stepped into the Foundation Establishment Stage, your cultivation speed will be much faster from now on.”
Listening to the Divine Dragon Senior’s explanation, Qin Mu remained silent.
Five to six hundred years—he had never experienced such a long time. In his impression, a hundred years was already extremely long. He had never even thought about five to six hundred years.
“Just five to six hundred years, kid. It passes by in the blink of an eye.”
From the Divine Dragon’s perspective, five to six hundred years was no different from five to six days. He had lived through long ages and witnessed countless events.
Qin Mu raised his head, looked at the mist before him, and asked, “Divine Dragon Senior, when can I go out?”
After his body could no longer hold on, Qin Mu’s consciousness came here again.
“Wait a bit longer, kid. This time you went a little too far. If not for some of the Divine Dragon Blood already fusing into your bloodline, you would have certainly exploded the moment your body reached its limit.”
“Don’t worry, Divine Dragon Senior. I know my limits.”
At first, Qin Mu was also worried about whether he could withstand the Divine Dragon Senior’s power, but the feeling from within his body told him, ‘I can still hold on.’
Not only is a woman’s sixth sense accurate, a man’s sixth sense is also very accurate, okay!
***
Dragon Clan.
News of the Divine Dragon—this was huge news for the Dragon Clan!
After the Seventh Elder reported the matter, the Dragon Clan placed great importance on it.
Lu Qian and Wang Yan’er became guests of the Dragon Clan, temporarily staying within the clan while waiting for the Dragon Clan to reach a decision internally.
Lu Qian was currently lying carelessly on the bed, cracking melon seeds, reading the Eastern Domain Weekly in her hand. It was said this weekly was produced by the Mysterious Mechanisms Sect. There were also various dailies, annuals, century reports, as well as Women’s Miscellany, Artifact Miscellany, Herb Miscellany, Smithing Miscellany, and so on. They were extremely popular, once allowing the Mysterious Mechanisms Sect to go from the brink of bankruptcy to being now filthy rich.
Lu Qian was currently reading Women’s Miscellany. The various kinds of clothing inside made her dazzled.
“Tsk, tsk, this Pinyi Pavilion has new products again. Wang Yan’er, have you seen them?”
Wang Yan’er was different from Lu Qian. Although she also read, she didn’t read Women’s Miscellany, but rather Prominent Figures, because the people on it were all high-quality potential clients.
Lu Qian turned over, and the next moment appeared beside Wang Yan’er, pointing at the black stockings in the book—very long, able to wrap up to the thigh.
“What is this?”
Wang Yan’er asked curiously.
“Hmph! Never seen it before, huh?”
Lu Qian pretended to be very knowledgeable about it, saying slowly, “These are stockings, a new product from Pinyi Pavilion. Not only black, but also white, nude, many colors and styles. Well?”
Wang Yan’er took the miscellany and flipped through a few pages with interest.
“Not bad, but what use are these for you? These are meant to attract men. Lu Qian, don’t tell me you’re in heat?”
“Go away, what nonsense are you talking? ‘Attract men’—I’m not!”
Lu Qian snatched back the miscellany. It was a waste of her kindness letting Wang Yan’er look!
As for why she looked at these, it was naturally because of the line below: “Believe in yourself! This item will definitely make young boys’ eyes light up!”
If Mu’er saw her wearing these stockings, would he be amazed?
Thinking this, Lu Qian knocked her own head.
‘Lu Qian, oh Lu Qian, you actually doubt your own beauty!’
Hoo hoo. At this moment, Lu Qian had already imagined what expression Mu’er would have when he saw her plump thighs clad in black stockings. He would probably be unable to resist touching them, right?
Wang Yan’er watched Lu Qian occasionally giggle foolishly. ‘Has her brain filled with water? Never heard of a Heavenly Unity Stage cultivator getting water in the brain. Maybe she’s gone into qi deviation.’
At this moment, a knock came from outside the door.
“Lu Sect Leader, Wang Tower Master, are the two of you free?”
It was the voice of the Dragon Clan’s Seventh Elder.
Lu Qian put away the miscellany and instantly returned to her previous cold Sect Leader expression.
She opened her mouth and said, “May I ask what business the Seventh Elder has? Is it about that Dragon Mark?”
The Dragon Clan’s Seventh Elder, standing outside the door, replied, “Exactly so. Please, Lu Sect Leader and Wang Tower Master, accompany this old man to the Dragon Clan Hall.”
Lu Qian and Wang Yan’er exchanged a glance and transmitted their voices.
Lu Qian transmitted, “You decide, should we go?”
Wang Yan’er transmitted, “Isn’t that obvious? We came here to investigate what exactly this is. Lu, confess honestly, did you practice your cultivation until your brain turned stupid?”
Lu Qian transmitted, “You’re the stupid one! I’ve always been fine!”
After a wave of internal voice chat, Lu Qian opened the room door and said to the Dragon Clan’s Seventh Elder, “Let’s go.”
