Chapter 606: Old Grudge, Mu Qingtian



Chapter 606: Old Grudge, Mu Qingtian

The world in the Great Heaven Realm is reversed. There is no spring, no summer, no autumn, no winter, no four seasons. The temperature is constant, but it is not suitable for living. In the cave, the firelight flickered, and the swordsman's face was reflected in the light. Mu Shu really didn't want to face this person. That day, they were very far apart. When he saw this person stabbed Hong Qian to death with a sword, he knew that he was no match for him, so he fled all the way.

She had expected to fall into this man's hands today. She also expected that the other party would not kill her immediately, and she wanted to use her wits to deal with him. She had prepared a half-true and half-false story in her mind, but when she was sitting face to face with the long sword pointed at her, she was unable to speak out, and was so scared that she wanted to tell the truth.

In the dark cave, there was a man and a woman, the woman's clothes were tattered, and the man was handsome. Some time ago, they had staged a "hero saving beauty" drama. In this scene, they should have secretly developed feelings for each other, looked into each other's eyes, and secretly fell in love. However, when it came to the reality, Mu Shu felt murderous intent and was restless. Li Changxiao felt that this woman was as cunning as a fox, so he was on guard and had no intention of flirting at all.

Mu Shu thought to himself, "Mu Shu, oh Mu Shu, you can't be scared by him. Senior Sister hasn't even told him about the Dao Fruit. This guy must know very little about the Mu Mansion. If you mix half of the truth with half of the lies, you will definitely be able to fool him."

Then he said, "Okay, okay, whatever you want to hear, I'm in your hands now, just ask me, but...if I finish answering, you won't kill me, right? If so, then you can kill me now, and I'll die with the secret."

It was originally a feint, hoping to get a promise and increase his bargaining chips. However, when Mu Shu saw Li Changxiao pinching his chin, as if he was really in deep thought, his heart trembled immediately, but the words had already been spoken, and even though he was complaining in his heart, he could only put on an attitude of being ready to die.

Li Changxiao was not a weak person. In addition, Mu Shu was known as a demon girl, so he actually thought about killing her on the spot and then using the dream-drawing technique to get clues.

But after hesitating for a moment, he gave up. In a person's life, there are too many dreams, big and small. Even now, if Li Changxiao uses the dream extraction technique, he can only extract one out of thousands of dreams. What he knows and gains depends on fate for 70% and himself for 30%.

Furthermore, for a strong man like Mu Shu, his dreams are obscure and he cannot extract dreams at will. If Mu Shu is willing to cooperate and tell the truth, it will be much more efficient than using the dream extraction technique. Li Changxiao thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, and he would not kill Mu Shu afterwards. Mu Shu suffered a lot in the battle with Hong Qian, and even if he did evil in the future, he would not be able to jump for long, so he did not have to be killed.

Mu Shu breathed a sigh of relief when Li Changxiao agreed. Her intuition told her that this man was a man of his word. Li Changxiao knew that Mu Shu was smart and alert, so he got straight to the point and asked, "What's your grudge against Mu Qin?"

Mu Shu was delighted and thought, "Master Mu Qin once asked me not to tell anyone about this matter. He must not know about it yet. I will tell him a few lies to test him."

Mu Shu said, "Oh, this is just an old grudge. My husband is as handsome as you, but my Mu family has always emphasized calmness and abstinence, and we should not have any delusions. So my senior sister chased us and killed my husband in the end. I was very sad at the time, but my senior sister also asked me to kneel down and beg for mercy, so I knelt down to save my life."

At this point, Mu Shu sneered, "It's really a matter of time. Senior sister is also tempted by this. I wanted to kill you, but I didn't know I couldn't beat you. That's all."

As he was speaking, with a "puff", a long sword pierced through his skin and flesh and pierced into his abdomen, causing blood to flow out. Mu Shu's face turned pale immediately, and he pressed his abdomen to stop the bleeding and asked, "I didn't lie, why did you stab me?"

Li Chang smiled but said nothing. He could tell the truth from the lies. He thought to himself, "This Mu Shu is really cunning. If it weren't for the fact that my way is different from that of ordinary people, I might as well just kill her and let her sleep."

Mu Shu was thinking: "Could it be that Senior Sister has broken even Master's orders and told him about that matter? Or does he really have the ability to distinguish truth from falsehood? No... he doesn't know about Guo yet. My matter is even more of a scandal in the Mu family, and it is even more impossible for me to talk about it easily. The path this person is taking is probably very strange and unpredictable. Distinguishing truth from falsehood is also within his ability."

Mu Shu's mind raced, her face turned pale again. As smart as she was, she knew her current situation just from the sword that had just pierced her abdomen. She changed her strategy quickly, and she dared not lie anymore.

Mu Shu thought to herself: "Find another way to survive, find another way to survive. I must not lose my life here." Her face turned pale as she looked at Li Changxiao. She saw the other party's meaningful smile. Although he did not open his mouth to speak, he seemed to be warning herself that the previous sword only penetrated three inches into the abdomen. If she did not cooperate, the next sword would probably pierce through her chest.

"Tell me, tell me, tell me, I've told you everything." Mu Shu surrendered completely and no longer dared to lie. He said, "This is what happened at the beginning."

Mu Shu told the story of their grudge in detail. Because of the previous sword warning, what she said was not only true but also involved many details. The distant old grudge was fully presented in front of Li Changxiao.

Mu Shu's master is named Mu Qingtian, who is also Mu Shu's lover. Mu Qingtian is a popular person beside the old ancestor Mu, and is responsible for many matters that are visible and shady. Mu Shu is Mu Qingtian's disciple, and has been practicing with him since she was a child. She is becoming more and more beautiful, and Mu Qingtian gradually falls in love with her. Mu Shu also knows this, so she takes advantage of it and Mu Qingtian gradually becomes unable to extricate himself.

Mu Shu often took advantage of Mu Qingshu, and was familiar with all of Mu Shu's classics and collections. With access to massive resources, his cultivation naturally rose steadily. Later one day, the Mu Mansion held a naming ceremony, and Mu Shu was given the name "Shu".

Music, chess, calligraphy and painting...the four outstanding people of that generation in the Mu family are one in a million. Among them, Music and Calligraphy are women, and Chess and Painting are men. Mu Shu would not compete with Chess and Painting, as one of them specializes in chess, while the other is too young and his skills are too low, so he only focuses on the word "Music".

She was jealous at that time and tried to compete with her in everything from then on, but was often frustrated. Mu Qingtian loved her dearly and secretly harmed Mu Qin, but due to the girl's amazing talent, rapid growth and wide fame, he gradually gave in.

Later, Mu Qingshu defected from the Mu Mansion and wanted to take Mu Shu away. When Mu Qingshu left the Great Heaven Realm, he was hit by an air palm by Mu Patriarch, causing him to be seriously injured and difficult to heal. Then he sent Mu Mansion disciples to hunt him down.

Finally, he was found by Mu Qin, who killed Mu Qingtian. At that time, Mu Qin wanted to kill Mu Shu at the same time. She was unemotional but not a fool. She had long been displeased with this woman who targeted her everywhere.

She was cold and selfish, and killing one more or one less person was really nothing, and she didn't take it to heart, even though the person was from the same sect as her. However, in the end, considering the Mu family, she only let Mu Shu beg for mercy, and did not kill him on the spot, but took him back to the Mu family.
