He didn't finish his sentence, as if there was no need to continue.
"I want to go out."
Zhou Mudao.
His tone was more forceful than ever before.
As if he had already guessed that Zhou Mu would have this idea, Jing Mu rejected it decisively, "You can leave when you reach the Spirit Emperor level, otherwise, just wait peacefully for a year."
"I can stay here, but both of my Spirit Emperors will go and protect Dandan."
“No.” Jing Mu shook his head, his tone calm. “Compared to you, you are more important. So no matter what you say, you must do as arranged now. Also, you don’t need to worry about Zhou Dandan. She is much stronger than you think.”
"you……"
Just as Zhou Mu was about to get angry, Jing Mu's figure vanished instantly, giving Zhou Mu no chance to vent his anger.
Seeing that Zhou Mu's emotions had calmed down, Ye Mujiu took small steps forward.
It wasn't that she was afraid of him, but rather that she would take her anger out on him. He was quite natural about this. No matter what happened, Zhou Mu would never lose his temper with her. Perhaps this was the fearlessness that comes from being favored.
"Brother Mu, don't get too excited. Even if you don't believe Uncle Jing, you should believe Dandan."
Clearly, this word of comfort did not have a good effect, so much so that Zhou Mu's expression still showed a hint of despair after he finished speaking.
He looked up at Ye Mujiu, then gently hugged her, saying wearily, "I'm so tired... I'm so tired, let me rest for a bit."
As he talked, he slowly fell asleep.
Bang bang bang
Suddenly, a noisy knocking sounded outside.
When Zhou Mu woke up from his deep sleep, the world outside the window was already completely dark. The knocking on the door continued, and Ye Mujiu, who was next to him, was also awakened. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and saw that she had just fallen asleep.
"Who is it, knocking on the door so late..."
Ye Mujiu was about to get up and open the door when Zhou Mu stopped her and said softly, "You should rest now, I'll go open the door."
Zhou Mu had an inexplicable premonition, then put on his shoes and went outside. Outside the door stood a man and a woman, dressed in luxurious clothes, clearly from a wealthy family.
"You are..."
The two were complete strangers to each other, yet within that unfamiliarity lay a sense of familiarity.
It's like I've seen it somewhere before, but I can't quite put my finger on it.
Just then, Ye Mujiu's voice rang out from the inner room, followed by hurried footsteps.
"Qing'er..."
Upon hearing Ye Mujiu's words, Zhou Mu instantly remembered that the person in front of him was Wang Qing'er, the legitimate daughter of the Wang family martial arts school, and the man beside her should be Tianqiu, the chief of the front courtyard of Qinglong Temple.
"Why are you here?"
Zhou Mu was not familiar with these two people, so it was Ye Mujiu who spoke. She pushed Zhou Mu aside and quickly welcomed the two people into the courtyard under the moonlight.
The two girls immediately huddled together and started talking.
Zhou Mu and Xi Tianqiu stood awkwardly to the side.
"By the way, I brought a big gift with me this time," Xi Tianqiu said, then continued when he saw Zhou Mu looking at him, "Look..."
Then, he took out a tortoise shell from his pocket.
There were also more than a dozen copper coins.
"Look what this thing is!"
Zhou Mu naturally couldn't understand it at first, and shook his head, "I don't understand."
“Tortoise shell,” Xi Tianqiu said, seeing Zhou Mu still looking confused, “Have you heard of the Dragon Gate Tortoise Shell?”
"I've heard of it." The so-called Dragon Gate Tortoise Shell is naturally very well-known.
The Dragon Gate Tortoise Shell is said to know the will of Heaven above and the destiny of the world below. Everything in the world is within the changes of the tortoise shell and copper coins. Its power is thus evident.
"This is the Dragon Gate Tortoise Shell." Xi Tianqiu waited for Zhou Mu to show a surprised expression, and then he said triumphantly, "Let me tell you a divination."
However, Zhou Mu simply nodded after hearing this, "Not bad, it does look quite nice."
Then he looked away.
This surprised Xi Tianqiu.
If that's the case, then we can't continue developing this further. What should we do?
However, he wasn't a fool, and immediately said, "How about I do a divination for you?"
“No.” Zhou Mu directly refused. “Do you know what it means to conquer nature? Besides, that’s an old saying from so many years ago. You still believe in that? Times are changing, and you need to keep up with the times.”
Then, he withdrew his gaze and continued to look at Ye Mujiu.
At this moment, only two people are most important to Zhou Mu. The first is naturally Ye Mujiu, and the other is his troublesome younger sister, who actually went to the front line without telling him.
But he couldn't get out, so he could only worry helplessly.
However, Xi Tianqiu seemed to have seen through Zhou Mu's thoughts, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "What if I said I could predict Zhou Dandan's fate?"
Zhou Mu turned his head abruptly, "What did you say?"
Xi Tianqiu laughed. "I say, if I could foresee Zhou Dandan's fate, would you still treat me this way?"
At this moment, Zhou Mu's expression had completely changed; he was no longer as nonchalant as before.
How do you know Dandan is my sister?
It's no exaggeration to say that apart from a few close friends and family members, no one knew that Zhou Dandan was his sister. Even if there was a possibility that the news was leaked from Ye Mujiu, the three of them hadn't seen each other for many years, so how could it have been leaked?
Therefore, the credibility of this statement increased considerably.
"I had it figured out."
Seeing Zhou Mu's reaction, Xi Tianqiu nodded in satisfaction, then leisurely pointed to the tortoise shell and said.
At this moment, Zhou Mu's attention was completely drawn to him.
"Okay! Thank you for your help."
“But your sincerity is not enough, so I cannot perform divination.” Xi Tianqiu unexpectedly refused.
Zhou Mu said calmly, "Then what would it take for you to perform divination for me?"
At this moment, Zhou Mu was completely in a pleading mood, so his words were quite pleasant to hear.
It was filled with a servile tone.
Xi Tianqiu then said, "Kneel down and kowtow."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Mu's expression immediately changed. "What did you say?"
Xi Tianqiu looked troubled. "It's not that I'm intentionally making things difficult for you, but this tortoise shell is a divine object. I can't control it. I can only say that I was moved by your sincerity. Besides, you're not kneeling to me, you're kneeling to the tortoise shell."
As he spoke, he placed the tortoise shell on the table and stood beside Zhou Mu, intending to show his stance.
Upon seeing this, Zhou Mu took a deep breath. In order to find out about Dandan, he had no choice but to lower his head.
