Chapter 65 065 The Most Hated Thing for Migrant Workers: A Sea of Hatred and a Sky of Love
Elder Lin naturally refused.
Cutting the weeds and eliminating the roots is a truth in this world, especially since Mu Wuxian is so outstanding. If he is not crushed, who knows what kind of future he will have?
Elder Lin still felt somewhat aggrieved, as he was the main executor in forcing the Mu family to commit murder. Those at the bottom of the execution ladder were the most pitiful, doing the hardest and dirtiest work, and thus harboring deep resentment. If any victims were to retaliate in the future, he would undoubtedly be the first to be sent to the front lines.
Now that Fairy Tian Shu is doing this good deed, Mu Wuxian might still remember the favor, which would be terrible for him; who knows what will happen to him in the future.
Elder Lin muttered to himself that there might be some complicated relationship involved, but the unfortunate one was a lowly leader like him doing the dirty work. He kept rambling on, saying that this matter must be reported to Immortal Jiang. Or perhaps he should report to Immortal Jiang first, and then decide whether to forgive or not.
Tian Shu, who was always willful, put on an impatient expression, saying that she could do whatever she wanted and no one else needed to tell her what to do, especially Elder Lin. Even if she went to complain to her master, she wouldn't care.
Furthermore, the female cultivator in the upper realm only raised a cat. The cat had a bad temper, and she had to coax it again and again. How could she kill it just because it was disobedient?
Elder Lin lamented the humility of being human, ultimately not daring to argue too much with Tian Shu. In the end, he placed the Soul-Locking Chain around Mu Wuxian's neck before giving it to Tian Shu.
The soul-binding chain was connected to a collar, and needles laced with soul poison were embedded in the neck, which would surely be able to control the person completely.
Even so, Elder Lin was still terrified when he saw Mu Wuxian's calm face.
Tian Shu chuckled and said, "It looks quite nice this way."
The illusions surrounding Tian Shu were shattered. Because Tian Shu rarely ventured out, everyone's perception of her was largely based on their imagination. As the forbidden possession of Tan Lang, people naturally imagined her as a gentle, kind, and resilient woman. However, it turned out that they couldn't share a bed, and Tian Shu's personality wasn't exactly amiable either.
The sight of several bloodied corpses on the ground, coupled with Tian Shu's strange joke, creates a somewhat surreal sense of artificiality.
Elder Lin admired him, but inwardly he sighed deeply.
Although they know these celestial beings from the upper realm are quite adept at playing tricks, aren't they afraid that Mu Wuxian, a remnant of the Mu family whose surname was wiped out, might find an opportunity to strangle Tian Shu in bed?
Or was Fairy Tian Shu just playing games with her senior brother? Was she deliberately teasing Tan Lang into getting jealous, so that Tan Lang would kill Mu Wuxian in his jealousy?
Despite his appearance, Mu Wuxian was a ruthless creature.
Tian Shu led Mu Wuxian back to his residence.
Throughout, Mu Wuxian maintained a calm demeanor. However, for some reason, Tian Shu seemed to vaguely sense a trace of sadness hidden within her.
A sense of desolation, of being at the end of one's rope and having nothing left.
However, people cannot share joys and sorrows, so Tian Shu cannot be said to empathize with or grieve over such a situation.
Tian Shu's residence is called Xiao Xin Ju, and its furnishings are extremely luxurious, surpassing the residences of any other fairy in the four realms.
It's not untrue to say that she was favored by Immortal Jiang.
Mu Wuxian's gaze swept around, somewhat surprised, not by its luxury, but by its ostentatious extravagance.
The courtyard is planted with a variety of exotic flowers and plants, and a resting couch in the middle is inlaid with pearls and gems, which is dazzling and also clearly shows the vulgar style of a nouveau riche.
This arrangement lacks any sense of elegance or refinement.
Tian Shu was born from the earth and has a natural fondness for dazzling and rare things.
She wasn't some kind of orthodox fairy; she only knew how to choose the best to satisfy herself.
Tian Shu removed her veil, revealing her stunning beauty, which seemed to suppress the ostentatious display throughout the courtyard.
She spoke her mind directly: "Actually, the Jiang family didn't completely wipe them out. Why is it that since your Mu family has been defeated, you are unwilling to change your surname and live a good life?"
In Tian Shu's eyes, not all of this was entirely the Jiang family's fault.
One's stance determines one's perspective. Does that mean the Mu family is entirely without fault?
The rules of the Four Realms are not as cruel as the law of the jungle; they do not exterminate defeated races, but simply change their surnames.
She casually uttered those words, fully aware that she was hitting a sore spot. But things were already as they were, and even if she tried to appease him with sweet words, Mu Wuxian might not be able to dispel his hatred. Since that was the case, she might as well say whatever came to mind.
More importantly, Tian Shu is in a superior position at this moment. Those who are in a superior position can be more willful and do not need to care so much about the feelings of being a prisoner.
Mu Wuxian suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with intense killing intent and hatred, so deep it seemed impossible to dispel.
If it were anyone else, they would probably be quite startled.
However, all of this was within Tian Shu's expectations, so it wasn't surprising.
She was genuinely sincere: "I truly don't understand."
"So what if he changed his surname? I mean, my senior brother also took in a servant named Jiang Bin. Jiang Bin originally didn't believe in the Jiang family, but in order to climb up to the Jiang family, he deliberately changed his surname. I think it's a very small matter, nothing to worry about."
Mu Wuxian was always very calm, even frighteningly so.
But Tian Shu was just too good at talking, so Mu Wuxian's face not only failed to regain its composure, but gradually turned blue.
Seeing that his expression was off, Tian Shu realized what was going on and suddenly understood.
“I understand. You think Jiang Bin is just a servant, while you are a young master from a prestigious immortal family. You are naturally unhappy to be compared to him. But so what if he is a servant? He curries favor with your senior brother through his own abilities, and he is not necessarily inferior to you, who was born into a prestigious immortal family.”
Tian Shu smiled and said, "How pretentious."
Mu Wuxian had been silent, but Tian Shu finally managed to pry open his mouth: "Therefore, Jiang Bin's cultivation and future prospects are very limited. In one's life, one should not destroy one's own persistence and will."
His voice was hoarse from a long drought, but his eyes grew brighter and brighter. He said, "If it were you, if a blood feud forced you to change your surname to survive, to abandon all glory and self-respect, and live such a life of groveling and begging, would you be willing?"
Tian Shu answered without hesitation: "Of course I'm willing!"
She even wondered if this was something to be concerned about.
She suffered a lot as a child, but no matter what, living well is the most important thing.
Mu Wuxian was somewhat taken aback. After a moment of silence, the anger on her face gradually faded, replaced by a sense of understanding.
His expression calmed down again, he lowered his eyelids, and suddenly chuckled: "You're still just a child, a child who doesn't understand anything."
Tian Shu was somewhat angry upon hearing this; Mu Wuxian's words were rather disrespectful.
She didn't reveal her true feelings, but smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you do what Young Master Mu did again, or give you another chance to do something like that."
When the Master summoned him, Tian Shu arrived at Jiang Ling's residence.
According to others, Jiang Ling is gentle and doesn't like to fight with others, but the Jiang clan is ruthless, and she has an extremely vicious disciple. They say that Jiang Ling is focused on cultivation and doesn't understand human relationships, and because of her great strength, she has gathered many unpleasant people around her.
Jiang Ling, with a gentle and warm expression, summoned Tian Shu over.
Tian Shu leaned closer and gently nestled against Jiang Ling's knee.
A hand reached out and touched Tian Shu's cheek, brushing across his face.
If someone else had done that, it might have seemed somewhat obscene, but Jiang Ling had already abandoned all human desires, so there was no sexual connotation involved.
Jiang Ling: "What's wrong, my disciple? Didn't we already choose Mu Wuxian to serve you? Why are you still so unhappy? If you want anything else, just say so."
He clearly cherished Tian Shu very much, and naturally gave Tian Shu whatever he wanted.
Tian Shu hesitated for a moment: "The Jiang family is becoming increasingly audacious. Should we do something about it?"
Jiang Ling smiled gently: "What do we care? If no one does those things, how can we be so carefree and happy? Do we really have to deal with those boring mundane matters ourselves?"
“If the Jiang family’s reputation is really too bad, then replace them all with someone else who is more suitable. But Tian Shu, you should know that even if you replace them with others, in this position of dominance, no one else will be better than the Jiang family, and their actions will not be any better.”
