Ice Phoenix Realm, Ice Cloud Thirty-sixth Palace.
Mu Bingyun closed her eyes lightly, her heart as calm as still water, with only pure ice spirits dancing silently around her.
At a certain moment, the whole world suddenly underwent subtle changes. Mu Bingyun opened her eyes and saw a fairy figure standing quietly under the coral next to the ice window, silently looking out the window.
Mu Bingyun looked surprised and stood up gently: "Sister, didn't you go to the Ice Wind Empire? Why did you come back so soon?"
The woman by the window turned around, revealing a face that instantly eclipsed the heavens and the earth. She gently lifted the ice silk on her forehead, and her soft voice revealed a helpless emotion: "The two of them have now arrived in the Ice Phoenix Realm, and your little Lan'er will be back with you soon."
“Didn’t you say that Yun Che was going to retrieve the Qilin Horn with his own ability? Why did he come back so soon…” Mu Bingyun’s eyes suddenly moved: “Two people?”
"That brat has already got the Qilin horn, and killed Mu Hanyi by the way."
When Mu Xuanyin said these words, there was actually a hint of disappointment in her voice.
“So, sister did help after all?” Mu Bingyun thought.
"No, he did it all by himself."
“Myself?” Mu Bingyun showed deep surprise.
“Mu Hanyi’s thoughts were not hidden from Yun Che at all. On the contrary, he took advantage of Mu Hanyi’s cunningness and took the initiative to bring up the matter of the Qilin Horn, giving Mu Hanyi a great opportunity. Mu Hanyi was eager and fell for it easily. He led him to the treasure house where the Qilin Horn was placed. Mu Hanyi wanted to take the opportunity to kill Yun Che, but he didn’t expect that Yun Che would kill him with the Qilin Dragon Breath that I gave him, and naturally took the Qilin Horn away by the way.”
“Him? Killing Mu Hanyi alone?” Mu Bingyun found it hard to believe. No one else could believe it. “The Qionglong Breath can indeed easily take Mu Hanyi’s life, but with Mu Hanyi’s strength, how could he be easily contaminated by the Qionglong Breath in Yun Che’s hand?”
Mu Xuanyin narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly: "This little brat has so many secrets. Even you find it hard to believe that Yun Che could kill Mu Hanyi. No wonder someone as smart as Mu Hanyi fell for it so easily."
Mu Bingyun: “…”
“Alas,” Mu Xuanyin sighed leisurely, with a hint of grievance on her face. “I was afraid that he would fall into Mu Hanyi’s trap and die, so I quietly followed him, but it turned out to be a wasted trip. I thought this would be a big test for him, but it turned out to be completed so easily. I was really unwilling to accept it. I also hijacked Mu Hanyi’s body to increase the difficulty of his test. I thought it would be a good show, but I didn’t expect that he would easily resolve it.”
Mu Bingyun: “…”
Mu Xuanyin clasped her hands on her round chest and said resentfully, "He was absolutely sure of killing Mu Hanyi, but he still kept the Mysterious Shadow Stone as a backup. This little brat... is much more sinister than Mu Hanyi. It seems that I have taken in a terrible little evil star this time."
“Mysterious Shadow Stone? Are you saying that before Yun Che killed Mu Hanyi, he used the Mysterious Shadow Stone on Mu Hanyi, who had revealed the truth? However, it is impossible for Mu Hanyi not to sense the aura of the profound formation when the Mysterious Shadow Stone was activated. Could it be that he thought Yun Che was going to die, so he didn’t stop it?” Mu Bingyun asked in surprise.
"Of course not. That brat has a special profound skill that can conceal his aura. Not only the profound shadow stone on his body, but even his own aura can be concealed to a degree that even I was surprised. After he killed Mu Hanyi, he returned to the center of the palace from the treasure house without being noticed by anyone."
"There is such a profound skill?"
"That's why I said that this little brat has a lot of secrets. If I hadn't followed him secretly this time, I wouldn't even know that he has so many strange things hidden in him."
Thinking of the strange flame that Yun Che had created by fusing ice and blazing flames, her brows twitched slightly.
“…It’s wise not to reveal your cards easily. Sister, don’t blame him for hiding it from you.” Mu Bingyun whispered.
"Remember not to tell anyone about my going to Bingfeng with him. Actually, he has guessed that someone in the sect is following him, but no matter how cunning he is, he can't guess that it's me."
Mu Xuanyin lowered her arms, turned her immortal body slightly, and looked towards the north: "They should be here soon. Bingyun, during this trip to Bingfeng, something about Yun Che made me change my mind. Starting tomorrow, I plan to train him personally."
Mu Bingyun was startled for a moment, then reacted and said in surprise: "You mean... I remember that you never did this to your previous disciples."
“He has too many extraordinary things, far more than just the Sky Poison Pearl and the Evil God’s inheritance.” Mu Xuanyin’s expression gradually became calm. “And the more secrets of this kind he has, the easier it is for him to die. He must improve his strength as quickly as possible.”
Mu Bingyun was about to speak when she suddenly noticed that Mu Xuanyin's eyes had slightly changed and she suddenly turned to the back... and at this moment, a loud shout filled the air:
"The Moon God Realm envoy——seeking to see the Snow Song Realm King——"
The sound was like thunder, and instantly spread throughout the entire Ice Phoenix Realm. The chaotic roars of frightened mysterious beasts echoed in the air.
"Moon God Realm?"
Mu Xuanyin and Mu Bingyun only had puzzled expressions on their faces, while everyone in the Ice Phoenix Realm had shocked expressions and stared blankly at the sky, not daring to believe their ears.
The Moon God Realm, one of the four great king realms in the Eastern Divine Region—that was above the upper star realm, and it was the king realm that ruled over the entire Eastern Divine Region!
How could the Moon God Realm, a king realm, send an envoy to visit the Snow Song Realm, which is only a mid-level star realm?
This has never happened in the entire history of the Snow Song Realm.
"People from the Moon God Realm? There have been so many strange things happening recently."
Even though they were just messengers, the people from the king realm still exuded a terrifying aura. This aura had the pride of being a king realm, but it was not hostile. Mu Xuanyin did not move: "Bingyun, go and take a look."
Mu Bingyun nodded slightly, flew up, and in a flash of icy shadow, he was already thousands of feet away.
After just a hundred breaths, the aura of the Moon Goddess's messenger faded away. Mu Bingyun returned to Mu Xuanyin in the gentle cold wind, with a black jade engraved with the seal of a full moon in his hand.
Mu Xuanyin scanned the area with her divine sense and said, “Invitation? Oh? The Moon God Realm King’s wedding? This is strange. The King of a King Realm would actually invite people from our Middle Star Realm to his wedding?”
“Could it be because Sister is at the Divine Lord level and everyone in the Eastern Divine Region knows Sister’s name, that’s why she received a special invitation?” Mu Bingyun asked.
Mu Xuanyin thought for a moment and shook her head: “Thirty years ago, I didn’t receive an invitation.”
Mu Bingyun: “…”
"It is very likely that not only us, but all the middle-level star realms should have been invited. If this is true, there is only one reason."
Mu Bingyun thought about it for a moment, nodded slightly, and said something similar to Mu Xuanyin: "Indeed, that is the only possibility."
Mu Xuanyin took the black jade from Mu Bingyun’s hand and said, “There are still twenty-seven months until the Mysterious God Convention. The Mysterious God Convention will last for about three months, and the Moon God Realm King’s wedding will be in exactly thirty months. This time is really convenient.”
Outside, the sound of the ice boat piercing the air was approaching quickly, and soon, Mu Xiaolan's excited voice could be heard from afar: "Master, I'm back!"
"Hey, look at how you spoil your little Lan'er. She's so disrespectful. My little brat over there doesn't even dare to raise his head in front of me."
Mu Xuanyin smiled charmingly and gently caressed Mu Bingyun's icy face all the way to her chest: "Good sister, remember to miss me."
The enchanting sound lingered in her ears, and Mu Xuanyin’s celestial figure had dissipated like icy mist.
——————————————
Yun Che returned to the temple and saw Mu Xuanyin standing in front of the temple. She was still as cold and majestic as ever, but her beauty was so stunning that it made the boundless snow pale in comparison.
Yun Che quickly stepped forward and knelt on one knee: “Disciple Yun Che pays respects to Master… Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission and have retrieved the Qilin Horn safely.”
Mu Xuanyin's face was cold and expressionless. She said coldly, "I heard that you not only got the Qilin Horn, but also killed Mu Hanyi?"
There was a clear chill in his voice. If it were any other time, it would have frightened him so much that his heart would have raced. But at this moment, Yun Che showed no fear at all. He simply nodded and said, “Yes.”
However, he did not explain why he wanted to kill Mu Hanyi, but suddenly said: "During this trip to Bingfeng, Master was concerned about the safety of his disciples and personally accompanied them to protect them. I am very grateful. In the future, I will definitely listen to Master even more."
“…” Mu Xuanyin’s icy eyes slowly darkened: “Master is traveling with you? What a joke are you talking about!?”
“This…” Yun Che raised his head and glanced at his right arm without the sleeve silk. With a strange look in his eyes, he said, “On the way back, I suddenly thought of something. This Ice Phoenix robe I’m wearing was given to me by my master. It has the same Ice Phoenix pattern as my master. Therefore, in the sect, even Elder Huan, who has the highest status, would never dare to tear off the sleeve silk with the Ice Phoenix pattern printed on it, because it would be disrespectful to my master. So…”
A gust of cold wind blew by, bringing with it a slight whistling sound, followed by a long period of silence.
Mu Xuanyin turned around and said slowly and coldly, "Che'er, I will teach you one more thing now. A truly smart person knows when to act stupid!"
There was clearly a gloomy murderous intent in the cold voice.
“Yes, I will follow Master’s instructions.” Yun Che nodded hastily, then bowed his head: “I thank Master for caring about my safety and having people secretly protect me, so that I can complete this trip smoothly.”
Mu Xuanyin: “~! @#¥%…”
A few more gusts of cold wind blew in, and the whistling sound was filled with strange embarrassment. Mu Xuanyin's whole body was filled with coldness, and she remained silent for a long time. Yun Che stole a few glances at her back, and finally couldn't help but said: "Master, as soon as I arrived, I heard the voice transmission just now... Is that person really the messenger of the Moon God Realm?"
Mu Xuanyin finally turned around, but she didn’t look at him. Her cold eyes went straight to the sky: “Get up.”
Yun Che then stood up carefully.
“Take a look at this for yourself.” Mu Xuanyin threw the black jade from the Moon God’s messenger to Yun Che.
Yun Che took it and swept his profound energy over it: “Moon God Realm… Realm King!? The wedding… After thirty months…”
Yun Che raised his head and said, “So it’s an invitation. And it’s actually for the Moon God Realm’s Realm King’s wedding.”
The Realm King of a Realm, who truly stood at the top of Primal Chaos and was the highest level being in the entire universe… Yun Che simply could not imagine what a terrifying person that person would be.
The wedding of the King of a Realm is definitely a major event that will shock the entire Eastern Divine Region, and even the entire Divine Realm. However, considering the level of the King of a Realm, isn't it a bit too exaggerated to send an invitation to a middle-level star realm?
Yun Che thought so in his heart, but of course he was not stupid enough to say it out loud.
"Are you wondering why the King of the King Realm would send an invitation to our Middle Star Realm for his wedding?"
Yun Che nodded, then shook his head quickly: “No, no, disciple definitely doesn’t think so. Although it is a king realm, it is natural for Master to be invited as he is so powerful.”
“Do you want to hear a scandal?” Mu Xuanyin narrowed her icy eyes slightly, “A scandal about the Moon God Realm King.”
