Mu Lingjiu paused and looked at Eunuch Li.
"Eunuch Li, I feel a little unwell. Could you please tell His Majesty that I will not go?"
"His Majesty has stated that all the sons of officials must go. Since you are General Mu's daughter, you should go." Eunuch Li glanced at Mu Lingjiu with disdain. "Although General Mu is no longer with us, the necessary rules must still be followed."
Mu Lingjiu was stopped by Eunuch Li, and since he couldn't leave, he followed him to the palace to see what Emperor Chu wanted to do.
The members of the Beast Tribe could only watch Mu Lingjiu leave.
At this moment, on the beast cart in the distance, the Fire Envoy was holding the black cat and asked gently, "Young Prince, why didn't you eat her? You finally found some delicious food."
The black cat folded its hands in front of itself, squatting into a furry ball, and spoke in a proud tone.
"I don't want to eat."
At this time, a woman's voice was heard outside the carriage.
"Master Fire Envoy, is that you?"
Mu Linghuang did not follow the main force back to the palace, but secretly stayed and found the Fire Envoy's carriage.
The fire envoy hummed.
"What is it?"
Mu Linghuang's voice was filled with joy as he stood outside and said respectfully:
"I would like to ask Lord Fire Envoy to help me again and allow me to enter the Temple of Talent. This mission was indeed a mistake, and I promise to complete it next time."
The fire master frowned, looking quite impatient.
"The Talent Hall never gives candidates a second chance!"
Mu Linghuang quickly said, "There really is a reason for this. If no one had deliberately obstructed me, I would definitely have completed the mission. I also ask Lord Fire Envoy to consider my mistake two years ago..."
Having said this, Mu Linghuang paused.
"Two years ago, by the Huaiqing River, Mu Lingjiu..."
After these key words came out, the Fire Envoy did not respond, but his expression became visibly ugly.
Mu Linghuang stood outside the car, unable to see what was happening inside, but could feel the pressure emanating from it.
She gritted her teeth and continued, "Master Fire Envoy, I believe the Talent Palace definitely doesn't want others to know the reason why Mu Lingjiu was abandoned."
"Are you threatening me?" the Fire Envoy said angrily. "If it weren't for the Temple of Talent, you would have died. Yet you dare to come here and threaten me!"
Mu Linghuang lowered her head, her eyes full of calculation.
"Master Fire Envoy, since you saved me, then you must help me to the end. Entering the Temple of Talent is my only chance, Master Fire Envoy..."
"Who said that entering the Talent Hall is your only chance?" The black cat licked its paws and the young man's crisp voice came out.
Mu Linghuang was shocked when she heard the voice. She didn't expect that there was someone else.
She didn't know the other person's identity, so she lowered her head and asked respectfully, "Excuse me, who are you?"
The black cat did not respond to Mu Linghuang's words. It licked its paws and said:
"The Lord of the Divine Sword Sect is coming to Chu State soon. You should seize the opportunity."
"The Great Master of the Divine Sword Sect?" Mu Linghuang was excited. The Divine Sword Sect was the top sect in Jiuzhou, and the Great Master was rumored to be the Empress's fourth brother! If one could become his disciple, they would definitely be stronger than those of the Talent Palace!
"You, are you telling the truth?" Mu Linghuang's voice trembled a little, and she couldn't believe that such a good thing could happen.
"Hehe..." The black cat sneered twice, showing disdain for Mu Linghuang.
The Fire Envoy said in a deep voice, "Are you worthy of our deception?"
After saying that, the Fire Envoy stopped talking nonsense with Mu Linghuang and let the beast cart fly into the air and left.
The Fire Envoy frowned, quite puzzled, "Why did Young Master tell her this? This person's character is really..."
"Weren't you very optimistic about her before?" The black cat looked at the fire envoy with its beautiful black eyes.
The Fire Envoy felt his face burning. Mu Linghuang had been so good at disguising herself before that he had always thought she was a gentle and kind person.
In addition, Mu Lingjiu was disabled and could not be repaired, so the Talent Palace agreed to compensate Mu Linghuang with some things, so they treated her quite well.
But in this hunting competition, he was very dissatisfied with Mu Linghuang's performance.
"I am ready to give up on this person."
The black cat rested its chin on its paw, "But she's been cursed."
The Fire Envoy remained silent. There was a condition for Mu Linghuang to be saved by the Black Cat, and that was the curse seal.
As long as the black cat casts a curse, Mu Linghuang will turn into a terrifying appearance.
"But does Young Master think she can win the favor of Mu Lingxiong? He is the empress's brother, and his cultivation level is probably above the Spirit Lord. No one can escape his eyes." said the Fire Envoy.
"Do you really think so?" The black cat sneered, "If you really had good judgment, you wouldn't have killed your own sister."
The Fire Envoy pursed his lips tightly, thinking that what the Black Cat said made some sense, but that was a high and mighty Spiritual Master! In Jiuzhou, he was also in charge of a region.
"But I don't think the person he's looking for is Mu Linghuang."
"Just try it and you'll know." The black cat stretched out its paw lazily, yawned comfortably, and curled up in the cat bed next to it to sleep.
The Chu Imperial Palace.
The troops surrounded the place in three layers, making it impossible to get through.
All the sons of officials who were invited into the palace were separated and controlled, and were told what happened in the hunting forest.
Piece together everything that happened in the hunting forest from the words of the officials' sons.
The King of Chu confirmed one thing.
"That woman named Bailing is very powerful."
When Queen Wang of Fengluan Palace heard the news, her eyes moved slightly.
"She is only sixteen years old, but her cultivation has already reached the sixth level of Spiritual Master, which is even stronger than Mu Linghuang. If I can use this girl, it would be the best."
The maidservant beside her served Queen Wang a lot of cakes and smiled slightly.
"Has the eldest prince seen that Bai Ling girl in the forest?"
The eldest prince lowered his eyes slightly and said, "I have seen him before, but I am not familiar with him."
