Chapter 1525 - Chapter 1525 Chapter 1385 You Guys Get Married
Chapter 1525: Chapter 1385: You Guys Get Married Chapter 1525: Chapter 1385: You Guys Get Married Chu Mu was very surprised, surprised that Lin Mengling would question him so directly.
Since the other party was so direct, Chu Mu didn’t have the heart to beat around the bush, and thus nodded immediately and said, “I indeed wanted to kill him.”
“So you do have a motive to kill him,” Lin Mengling continued to ask.
“Yes, he sent people to target my younger sister,” Chu Mu admitted.
Lin Mengling slightly furrowed her brows, but the small gesture eased quickly.
Lin Mengling was actually really doubtful that Han Erxing was killed by Chu Mu, because she had found out that Han Erxing had harmed the people around Chu Mu on that very night.
Han Erxing’s actions were indeed detestable, but they should be punished by their Divine Sect, not silently killed by Chu Mu, which was equally a brutal act.
Additionally, as Chu Mu’s strength was revealed bit by bit, Lin Mengling grew even more convinced that it could have been Chu Mu’s doing, yet she had absolutely no evidence to prove it.
Therefore, Lin Mengling directly questioned him, hoping to catch some clues from his demeanor — a common tactic used by members of the Divine Sect when they suspect someone without having any evidence.
Regrettably, she could see nothing from Chu Mu’s expression, no panic, not any slightest bit of overreaction, only a trace of astonishment that even seemed to stem from the fact that she had suddenly brought up such a question.
“He should feel lucky that he didn’t fall into my hands,” Chu Mu said indifferently.
As for murder, if you can deny it, then it’s best to deny, especially when facing someone as upright as Lu Yuqin who possessed a sense of stubborn pursuit.
Chu Mu believed that Lin Mengling, the young Judge, must be the same. Chu Mu’s stance was as follows: I did kill the person, but I will firmly deny it, even if there is evidence, still deny it.
“The highest realm of lying is actually yours, stone-faced, utterly serious,” Yu Suo said to Chu Mu using Mental Sound.
“What are you doing here?” Chu Mu also asked using Mental Sound.
Chu Mu had seen Yu Suo not long ago, asking her to help investigate the attack on Liu Binglan. How could she appear here again so soon? This woman had an omnipresent feel about her.
“It’s about the matters of the Yin Valley,” said Yu Suo.
“Oh, I almost forgot.”
The interrogation from Lin Mengling was just an interlude; Chu Mu was summoned here not truly about the death of Han Erxing, but concerning the matters of Yin Valley.
Originally, there were only two slots for Yin Valley, one was for Lin Mengling, and the other for Chu Mu. Considering only the two of them would be going, the possibility of facing dangers in Yin Valley seemed high, so the Divine Sect invited Lord Xia Yin of Lament City to join.
The reason why Xia Yin was invited was because Lament City had provided the Divine Sect with the Energy Magic Stones required for the Array Diagrams in Yin Valley, making the aura of cultivation within the valley thicker. This expanded the resources for cultivation and made it sufficient for three people to practice; of course, safety was of utmost importance.
Yin Valley was indeed a Holy Land for cultivation, which also meant the creatures living there, after years of cultivation, would become extremely powerful. Lin Mengling was the precious daughter of all members of the Divine Sect; no one would want to see her come to harm.
Yin Valley would open in ten days, and the next opening would be a year later.
A Cultivation Holy Land would benefit one’s strength improvement, Chu Mu had no reason not to go, except, he was still rather worried about Liu Binglan’s safety.
Yu Suo knew what Chu Mu was concerned about and she spoke to him, “You help me lure that creature from Yin Valley into the Array Diagram I’ve set up, and I’ll ensure the safety of everyone.”
Chu Mu nodded and then asked, “What’s the background of the Hidden-Pupil Royal Family?”
“They are a group of people with the highest level of human blood lineage. In order to ensure the purity of their blood, they often practice close kin marriage, to prevent bloodline dilution. This has also led to their relatively small population, as even with inbreeding, they at least go with distant relatives,” Yu Suo explained.
“How strong are they? Do you know why they attacked my mother?” Chu Mu continued to ask.
“Don’t know, I actually wanted to deal with the Hidden-Pupil Royal Family, but unfortunately, the Hidden-Pupil Royal Family is semi-reclusive. It’s not easy to win over those people. It may also have something to do with the Northern Territory, having upset some folks, so they hired those two to act. Those two at best are servants of the Hidden-Pupil Royal Family, not really members of it,” Yu Suo said.
Chu Mu was even more puzzled, and he felt uneasy without being able to find the mastermind.
“Don’t worry, that old man by her side is quite capable. They won’t give those people any more chances,” Yu Suo spoke.
Yu Suo now wanted Chu Mu to focus on Yin Valley. The benefits of Yin Valley were extremely substantial. If it weren’t for the fact that Yin Valley’s prohibitions limited her own strength, she would have personally attended to such an important matter.
Xia Yin and Lin Mengling entering Yin Valley probably had their own tasks which they hadn’t disclosed. In any case, once they entered Yin Valley in ten days, the three of them would be in the same boat, and they would naturally speak up.
Having left the Imperial Garden and returned to his courtyards, Ning Man’er was playing with the Little Hiding Dragon by the rockery, her laughter audible from afar.
“Brother,” Ning Man’er called out to Chu Mu upon seeing him return, and immediately ran over.
Since the incident with Han Erxing, Chu Mu hadn’t let Ning Man’er go out; she must have been bored at home.
Once embroiled in power struggles, there would always be numerous inconveniences. Chu Mu himself also realized that the longer he stayed in Struggle Capital, the more likely he would be caught in these disputes.
Unfortunately, some disputes were unavoidable.
“`
“In some time, I will have to leave. When that happens, just follow your sister Ye and don’t run around wildly,” Chu Mu instructed Ning Man’er.
“Who runs around wildly? Always saying that about others, it’s really annoying,” Ning Man’er pouted as she spoke.
Ning Man’er was naturally playful and after fitting in with everyone, she returned to her lively and active nature, always pestering others to take her out for fun.
The Struggle Capital was huge, even after exploring all of it, there was the even larger Mu City. Many times, Ning Man’er wanted Mu Qingyi to take her to Mu City, but Mu Qingyi was always busy with her breakthrough and had no time to accompany her.
“How long will you be gone?” Ning Man’er asked.
“A year, I guess,” replied Chu Mu.
Yin Valley would not open until a year later. Although it was located at the Struggle Capital, this unique secluded space seemed as remote as if it were thousands of miles away.
“Ah? That long? Brother just coaxed Sister back, and now you’re off again; aren’t you afraid that Sister will get angry?” Ning Man’er said.
Chu Mu was really a bit embarrassed by Ning Man’er’s words and did not know for a moment how to tell Ye Qingzi about it.
If he could take Ye Qingzi with him, that would naturally be great, but the quota was strictly limited.
Upon returning to the hall, Ye Qingzi and Liu Binglan were sitting there, smiling as they watched Chu Mu.
Ning Man’er immediately abandoned Chu Mu and ran over to Liu Binglan and Ye Qingzi.
“Chu Mu, I plan to return to New Moon Land in a few days,” said Liu Binglan.
“Yeah, alright, I still have some things to deal with and will stay here for now,” Chu Mu nodded.
It was good to return to New Moon Land, after all, it was her own territory, and there was no need to worry about safety.
Ye Qingzi looked at Chu Mu, puzzled.
Ning Man’er preemptively told Ye Qingzi what Chu Mu had just said, and Ye Qingzi immediately turned into a sullen young lady, her eyes fixed on Chu Mu.
“I have to go to Yin Valley, there’s a Phoenix Clan Relic there that is helpful for the Dream of Oblivion’s enhancement…” Chu Mu was helpless.
Chu Mu was going to cultivate, and Ye Qingzi couldn’t say much about it, she said: “Then I’ll go back with Aunt.”
“Good, I’ll come back immediately after the cultivation is over,” Chu Mu knew Ye Qingzi always understood him like this.
“Chu Mu, there’s something else I need to discuss with you,” Liu Binglan said as she saw Chu Mu was about to leave and called out to him.
“What is it?” Chu Mu was planning to visit Lu Yuqin to learn more about the Hidden-Pupil Royal Family.
“After this cultivation session is over, you and Qingzi should officially get married. It’s not good to keep dragging it out, right?” Liu Binglan said seriously.
Liu Binglan’s words caused both Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi to be stunned.
Chu Mu had always regarded Ye Qingzi as his wife, and whether they were officially married was secondary.
However, Liu Binglan’s reminder made Chu Mu suddenly realize that he always owed Ye Qingzi a wedding ceremony.
That wedding in Xiangrong City, with thousands of grooms and thousands of brides, Chu Mu in his bright red groom’s outfit and Ye Qingzi in her Holy Blue color dress, the night they pledged their lives to each other, was something Chu Mu could never forget. However, fate played its tricks, and the enemies who brought the deepest wounds to Chu Mu were the ones to send their wedding blessings, shattering that wonderful night in an instant.
Afterward, everybody around took it for granted that they were husband and wife, but there really hadn’t been a grand and formal celebration to officially establish their relationship…
This sudden suggestion from Liu Binglan actually made Chu Mu feel somewhat ashamed, this was something he should have discussed with Ye Qingzi long ago, yet he had delayed it for such a long time.
“Aunt, this… let’s talk about it later?” Ye Qingzi was somewhat flustered by the sudden talk of marriage.
“It’s always ‘Aunt, Aunt,’ it’s time to change the way you address me,” Liu Binglan said with a smile looking at Ye Qingzi.
Ye Qingzi’s cheeks flushed red, and she lowered her head, not talking anymore, but her eyes were sneakily glancing at Chu Mu.
Suddenly, Ye Qingzi thought of an issue: This wedding, since it was to be held in New Moon Land, was sure to be grand and formal; wouldn’t it affect the Little Princess?
“Alright, let’s set the date for next year when spring turns to summer,” Chu Mu nodded.
Hearing Chu Mu say this, Ye Qingzi felt moved. The day when spring turned to summer was the same date as their regretful wedding in Xiangrong City, and Ye Qingzi didn’t expect Chu Mu to remember it so precisely.
“Isn’t that a bit rushed? Spring is soon, and you will probably just have come out of Yin Valley. Why not postpone it by a few days?” Liu Binglan suggested.
“No need, let’s keep it on that day,” Chu Mu said very seriously. Then he smiled knowingly at Ye Qingzi.
