"How's it going? Are you feeling better?"
At this moment, Qian Renxue was as soft as a kitten, whispering sweetly in Mu Ci's ear.
"It's ready."
"But I have a question?"
Mu Ci's hands started to wander, and she replied somewhat absentmindedly.
"What's the problem?"
Ignoring the strange sensations emanating from her body, Qian Renxue turned Mu Ci's face towards her and made her look at him.
"Who am I?"
"What number?"
Mu Ci was taken aback, somewhat not understanding the meaning behind Qian Renxue's finger gesture.
"What do you think?" Qian Renxue looked at Mu Ci with a hint of reproach, gently pinching the cheek she was holding with her jade-like hand.
"Oh, of course you're number one."
Mu Ci also realized what was happening and looked at Qian Renxue's beautiful face, replying solemnly.
"So, I'm the eldest sister now?"
Upon hearing the somewhat unexpected answer, Qian Renxue immediately sat up and looked at Mu Ci with a joyful expression.
However, Qian Renxue soon looked at Mu Ci with a suspicious expression and asked in a questioning tone.
"You've been with them for so long, haven't you taken things any further?"
Mu Ci looked at Qian Renxue, who looked incredulous, with a mixture of amusement and exasperation, and pulled her into her arms.
“You’re really the first. They’re still young, so they haven’t taken the final step yet.”
But as soon as Mu Ci finished speaking, she felt like she was being manipulated.
"hiss!"
You mean I'm getting old?
Qian Renxue's face was as cold as frost, as if she would ruthlessly punish the man in front of her if he did not answer well.
Mu Ci quickly added, "No, Sister Xue will always be so young, and even more so after we become gods. There's no such thing as age."
Qian Renxue gave a satisfied hum.
Since the answer was satisfactory, she decided not to pursue the matter further.
She was just trying to scare him; there's no way she would actually do something like that.
The two lay quietly for a while, Qian Renxue's tone ethereal, tinged with worry.
"Little brother, is Tang Hao in great danger?"
Yesterday, Qian Renxue was so moved that she forgot that Haotian Douluo Tang Hao was someone who could beat her father to death.
It's easy to imagine the price Mu Ci paid to kill Tang Hao.
Mu Ci stroked Qian Renxue's smooth golden hair and replied with a light laugh.
"No, Tang Hao's injuries are extremely serious, killing him wouldn't be difficult."
Then Mu Ci briefly recounted how she obtained the Xuan Deer sacrifice and how she was later ambushed by Tang Hao.
"That Tang Hao deserves to die!"
Qian Renxue's golden eyes were filled with murderous intent, and her breathing became much heavier.
If Mu Ci's own strength hadn't far exceeded the other party's expectations, she probably would have lost another man who was the most important to her.
"Alright, Sister Xue, Tang Hao has already been executed, so let's not discuss his affairs anymore."
Although Mu Ci was comforting Qian Renxue, her own brows furrowed.
Thanks to Qian Renxue's reminder, Mu Ci now has time to think about Tang Hao's matter.
'If I remember correctly, Tang San should have already enrolled at Shrek Academy by now. Shouldn't Tang Hao be hiding in the shadows, watching over Tang San and Xiao Wu?'
Why did I inexplicably end up in Sunset Forest?
Mu Ci really couldn't understand it.
Why did Tang Hao not stay with his son and the 100,000-year-old soul beast, but instead come to the Sunset Forest, which had nothing to do with them, and coincidentally witness him being sacrificed by a soul beast?
That's just too illogical.
Mu Ci considered many possibilities, but could not convince himself of any of them.
One can't help but add a variable and think about it from a higher perspective.
Only in this way can Tang Hao's behavior be rationalized without any loopholes.
Asura God!
Chapter 105 Tang Hao as bait, Huo Wu leaves
Asura God!
This was the only possibility that Mu Ci could think of.
If we attribute everything to the Asura God, then why did he direct Tang Hao to attack and kill him?
Suddenly, Mu Ci thought of Tang San's actions in the God Realm ten thousand years later, where he manipulated the chosen one of destiny in Douluo Continent, and then she thought of the fact that Tang San had traveled through time.
'Could it be that Tang San's time travel was truly the work of the God of Asura?'
"Because my appearance disrupted his planned growth trajectory, he directed Tang Hao here, attempting to kill me prematurely and bring his fate back on track?"
'Was that calamity back then also orchestrated by the God of Asura?'
Thinking of this, Mu Ci frowned even more.
Because this matter was a conspiracy theory in his previous life, and there was no actual proof in the book, but the current situation forced Mu Ci to think in this direction.
Just then, Mu Ci felt a warm and soft touch on her cheek, and a hand as warm as jade gently smoothed away her furrowed brows.
"What's wrong? You look so worried. Tell me what's bothering you."
Qian Renxue felt a pang of sadness seeing the man beside her looking so worried.
After being comforted by Qian Renxue, Mu Ci felt much better and hugged the delicate body in her arms.
"Sister Xue, I'd like to ask you for a favor."
"Don't use the word 'please' when you talk to me. You are my man, and I will always be on your side."
Hearing Qian Renxue's reply, Mu Ci's love deepened.
"Sister Xue, take Tang Hao's head back to the Spirit Hall later. That way, you'll have settled one matter."
"However, don't let the Spirit Hall spread the news that Tang Hao is dead. Tell the public that after the finals of this year's Soul Master Competition, someone who has been wanted by the Spirit Hall for a long time will be executed in public."
If the news of Tang Hao's execution were to spread now, it would cause a huge uproar across the entire continent.
You should know that Yu Xiaogang knows Tang Hao's true identity, and he will definitely tell Tang San everything after he learns the news.
Meanwhile, Tang Yuehua in Tiandou City will also relay this matter back to the Haotian Sect.
At that time, both Tang San and the Haotian Sect, hidden in the mountains, will definitely take action.
Mu Ci did not want to completely disrupt the trajectory of Douluo Continent at this time, so she kept Tang Hao's information a secret for a while to stabilize the situation.
However, even with this, some people might guess that the wanted criminal executed could be Tang Hao.
After all, in the past few decades, no one other than Tang Hao has been treated this way by the Spirit Hall.
If someone within the Haotian Sect guesses this, then Tang Xiao, as Tang Hao's elder brother and the sect leader of the Haotian Sect, will definitely take action, and it's not impossible that he might even come to rescue him personally.
If that's the case, Tang Hao's bait will be very useful.
If it has no effect, then it has no effect. At that time, it is acceptable to use Tang Hao's head to enhance the prestige of the Spirit Hall.
"Okay, these are all minor matters."
Qian Renxue quietly closed her eyes, rested her head on Mu Ci's chest, and responded gently.
With one matter temporarily resolved, Mu Ci felt a sense of relief.
Holding Qian Renxue's jade-like body in his arms, the flames in his heart gradually grew stronger.
After all, once you've tasted the marrow, it's hard to get rid of it.
"Sister Xue, I want to eat breakfast."
"Okay, I'll have someone prepare it for you."
"But the breakfast I want is right in front of me!"
-
Three days later, at the Medicine King Sect.
Beside a luxurious carriage, Mu Ci was saying her final goodbye to Huo Wu.
As time went by, it was time for Huo Wu to return to Blazing Academy and train with her team members.
Mu Ci and Huo Wu embraced tightly, savoring their last moments together before parting.
"Huo Wu, did you bring the medicinal gifts I prepared for Grandpa Huo Nu, as well as your uncles, aunts, and brother-in-law?"
Mu Ci gently pressed her face against Huo Wu's golden-red hair, inhaling the faint fragrance, and softly asked.
After all, he had abducted someone's granddaughter and daughter for several years, so it would be really unreasonable not to prepare some gifts for Huo Wu to take back.
So these past two days he also took some time to refine a batch of pills to enhance soul power and preserve youthful appearance.
Even Huo Wushuang didn't forget, and specially refined a Marrow Cleansing Pill. Although its medicinal power was not as good as the immortal herb, it could still make up for the lack of aptitude.
Upon hearing Mu Ci's question, Huo Wu, who was leaning quietly against Mu Ci's chest, swayed slightly and tightened her arms around his waist.
"It's all packed up, it's all in my storage soul tool."
After they finished speaking, the two lingered tenderly for a few more moments.
