City Lord Li was very enthusiastic and offered to let them stay for a few more days, and asked Chu Mu and others if they were willing to serve him.
Everyone has a good impression of City Lord Li, but Bai Jinrou cannot be delayed. They must go to Wencheng with Bai Yu as soon as possible to rescue Princess Jinrou.
"If that's the case, then I won't do anything to persuade him to stay." City Lord Li said with some pity.
"Well, we didn't say we were leaving right away. We want the materials you have. Let's exchange them for demon spirits, right?" Chu Mu said.
"Huh? Have you captured the demon spirit yet?" Mu Ruan'en was stunned and asked in surprise.
City Lord Li and Mu Ruanen had the same expression. Since they had not encountered the demon, it stands to reason that they had not gone to the demon's place.
"Didn't the city lord tell us to capture the demon spirits? How could we come back if we didn't get the demon spirits?" Prince Chao said.
"You said you didn't meet the devil, I thought you..." City Lord Li coughed and did not finish the sentence, but put on a smile and continued, "Then you come with me."
City Master Li took them to the place where the materials were stored. Mu Qingyi did not go with them. Naturally, she stayed in the hall to have some words with her third grandfather.
Mu Ruanen was a little surprised when he saw Mu Qingyi, because he could feel that the grandniece in front of him had obviously reached the master level.
Mu Ruanen had been to the Crescent Land before, and he had the impression that there was a lack of resources. To reach the master level in that kind of place, you have to work harder than others.
Mu Qingyi's impression of this third grandfather was very vague. She still looked at him with some confusion, waiting for him to speak first.
Mu Ruan'en opened his mouth and said to Mu Qingyi: "I didn't expect you to come to the Cloud Realm. In fact, your grandfather wanted you to stay in the New Moon Land."
Mu Qingyi said nothing, but looked at Mu Ruanen with her clear eyes.
Mu Ruanen sighed and continued: "You probably don't know about Mu's situation, right?"
Mu Qingyi nodded. She thought she knew the Mu family very well before, but after coming to this cloud realm, she found that the Mu family seemed much bigger than she imagined.
"Yunjing is ruled by two people, one is your second grandfather Mu Yingqiao, and the other is the leader Li Mang, and with Mu Yingqiao as our Mu family in Yunjing, it is the Mu family dynasty in Jiangcheng
Mu Tuan’s lineage." Mu Ruanen said.
"It's a bit complicated," Mu Qingyi said.
"Our Mu family is very large, large enough to rule a territory. Lord Mu Chuan is now our dynasty ruler. There are many lines under Lord Mu. One of them is Mu Tuan. Mu Tuan is your great-grandfather.
Brother, our lineage is headed by him." Mu Ruanen said.
Mu Qingyi knew about genealogy, but what she didn't expect was that her genealogy would be so huge. She had to know that when she was young, the Mu family gave her a very complicated and huge feeling.
Compared with the Mu family dynasties mentioned, it is like an ethnic group and an empire.
Mu Qingyi's great-grandfather was King Mu as the people of Vientiane City called him. King Mu opened up the Vientiane Realm and single-handedly turned the Vientiane territory that was originally not a human domain into a prosperous human empire. Although the empire changed hands not long after,
But his achievements are always recorded in the annals of history.
As for Mu Tuan mentioned by Mu Ruanen, Mu Qingyi had never heard of it, nor had he heard that his great-grandfather had brothers.
"The cohesion of our family is not very strong. The main reason is that the old man has a dissolute nature and rarely interferes in family affairs. Until now, I don't know where the old man has wandered." Mu Ruanen said with a wry smile.
.
Mu Qingyi knew that the old man Mu Ruanen was talking about was referring to King Mu. People in the Crescent Land had always thought that King Mu should have been buried in peace. What they didn't expect was that he was still alive, and alive and well.
"What about my grandfather?" This is what Mu Qingyi is most concerned about now.
No matter how big the family is, Mu Qingyi only really cares about those people who have the most direct blood relationship with her. She lost her father and mother very early and was raised by her grandfather, but her grandfather never passed
He left inexplicably a few years ago. After that, the whole family, which seemed to be bustling with people, became extremely deserted. The family in Mu Qingyi's heart seemed to suddenly become hers alone.
Now her entire family has suddenly become extremely large, but no matter how large it is, a family without her own relatives is not worth her heart at all.
After reaching the soul emperor level, the life span will be extended to about two hundred years, and the life span of the soul king level will be even longer. It is normal for five generations to live under the same roof, but people's feelings will not become magnified due to the extension of life span, and blood relationships can truly be established.
Emotions are always within three generations.
"Your grandfather Mu Zuoli is the replica of the old man. I haven't seen him for many years. Our clan leader Mu Tuan appointed him as the general of the Cloud Realm Protector. Under normal circumstances, he should stay in the Cloud City.
But I guess with his character, he will be great in Yuncheng every ten years."
Speaking of Mu Zuoli, Mu Ruanen seemed to be in a bad mood. However, even if he disliked his younger brother, Mu Ruanen could not spread his resentment on his granddaughter, thinking that this grandniece had always been lonely in the new moon.
In the ground, Mu Ruanen also felt a little guilty in his heart. He should have sent someone to pick her up to the Cloud Realm. Mu Zuoli and the old man never paid attention to family affairs, and he had to take good care of them.
Mu Ruanen briefly told Mu Qingyi some things about Mu Zuoli, and Mu Qingyi listened attentively.
After roughly speaking, the hall suddenly fell silent. Mu Ruanen was immersed in the old family affairs and suddenly realized that this was not good. He changed the topic and said: "Why did you suddenly appear in Yunjing? Isn't there an old man there in Yunmen?
Wait, will they allow you to cross the border?"
Mu Qingyi felt that there was no need to hide things about the Vientiane Realm from Mu Ruanen. After all, if an elder pointed it out, he could learn more.
At this moment, Mu Qingyi gave a rough description of the situation in the Vientiane Realm.
After hearing this, Mu Ruan'en's jaw dropped, and after a while he glared at Mu Qingyi and said, "You... you mean, you plan to... plan to make the New Moon Land independent from the Cloud Realm?
"
Mu Qingyi nodded seriously.
"Grandniece, please don't say this again..." Mu Ruanen lowered his voice and quickly recited a spell, forming an isolation barrier in the hall.
The three major palaces have stood in the Crescent Land for thousands of years, and they have always been responsible for protecting the Crescent Land. Several disasters recorded in history were also quelled by the three major palaces. Mu Qingyi felt that no other force could compare with them.
The three major palaces are more suitable to take charge of the New Moon Land. If it is placed in the hands of others, especially the hands of people like Ling Chan and Li Kuangdeng, how can Mu Qingyi agree?
"Our family can only be regarded as a big family in Yun Realm, but the person named Li is really in charge of Yun Realm. Originally, the opening up of Wanxiang Realm should be included in the private territory of the old man. Later, the old man made trouble and the territorial rights were transferred to Shenzong.
Deprived of it, your New Moon Land is now controlled by Yunjing, that is, the Li family. It's okay for you to kill Ling Chan, but it will be troublesome to kill Li Kuangdeng. After all, Li Kuangdeng was ordered to go there, and you killed him.
He, Li Kuang, will definitely be angry if he gets to the first level." Mu Ruanen rubbed his temples, this matter was a bit tricky.
"We have no choice." Mu Qingyi said.
"In any case, independence is still the last resort. You have just come out of the New Moon Land. You don't know how strong the rulers here are. That Chu Mu you mentioned is still young, so there is no way he can defeat him.
Someone who has passed the Cloud Realm Master level, and once he fails, your New Moon Land will continue to be squeezed out by various forces in the future." Mu Ruanen said.
"I think he can do it," Mu Qingyi said.
Mu Ruan'en looked into Mu Qingyi's eyes and seemed to read something in her eyes. He sighed: "I will send people to find the old man. The old man still has some deterrence in Yunjing. If we can suppress this matter,
You should stop talking about independence and leave the management power to Li Ziran. Although Li Ziran is a bit old and confused, he is kind-hearted. You are autonomous in the New Moon Land, occasionally report some situations, and then submit them according to the regulations of Yuncheng.
Some tax items would be nice.”
The so-called tax items are actually soul cores, soul crystals, spirit stones, medicinal materials and other spiritual items. This tax payment was previously done by Ling Chan, and later Ling Chan handed over these matters to Emperor Ji Yusuo.
The resources of the New Moon Land itself are very scarce, and it is surrounded by many forbidden areas. If the spiritual objects collected are calculated according to the standards of other third-level realms in the Cloud Realm, it is estimated that the New Moon Land will not be able to produce many masters in the future.
The number of super powerful people, even those at Soul Emperor and Soul Master levels, has decreased significantly.
However, Mu Qingyi also felt that it would be good to have a way out. It would be great if King Mu could come forward to solve the matter. He would work harder on accepting spiritual objects and obtain resources from some mysterious realms in the cloud realm as a way forward.
Accept, this will allow the Crescent Land to develop better.
"Let's leave it like this for now. You have good qualifications. I'll think of some ways to upgrade you to the soul master level, so that your strength will improve faster. You can stay here with me for the next three years at the latest.
You can reach the soul master level. At that time, I will introduce you to the Mu Tuan clan leader, and you will have a wider space for improvement when you arrive in Jiangcheng." Mu Ruanen has already thought about this grandniece.
Being able to possess dominant-level creatures without any support is a rare talent, and he should be able to become a young leader in the Mu family dynasty.
Mu Qingyi shook his head and said: "I want to continue practicing with my friends, and I feel that my soul has loosened up. Maybe it won't take three years to break through."
"Qingyi, you should know that if you are appreciated by the clan leader, you can stand taller in the future and easily surpass your friends." Mu Ruanen said.
Mu Qingyi still shook her head. She didn't want to stand any higher. She was just as simple and obsessed with the way of soul pet as Chu Mu. More importantly, she gradually found that she no longer had the window of heart that was closed like before.
.
The feeling of loneliness is not pleasant. Mu Qingyi has been tasting it since she was a child. Even though she became a blockbuster and became a respected Tianji in the New Moon Land, she was still isolated at a high place and saw a group of colorless people.
, and then I don’t know why to stay strong.
At that time, no one was able to whisper to her like Ye Qingzi, no one was teasing her as unscrupulously as Ye Wansheng, and no one was like Chu Mu...
