City Lord Li was very enthusiastic and asked them to stay for a few more days, and asked Chu Mu and others if they were willing to work for him.
Everyone had a good impression of City Lord Li, but Bai Jinrou's affairs could not be delayed, they had to go to Wencheng with Bai Yu as soon as possible to save Princess Jinrou.
"Since that's the case, then I won't do much to keep it." City Lord Li said with some regret.
"Uh, we didn't say to leave right away. We want the materials in your hand. Let's exchange them with demon spirits?" Chu Mu said.
"Huh? Have you captured the demon spirit yet?" Mu Ruanen was stunned and asked in surprise.
City Lord Li and Mu Ruan'en had the same expressions. Since they didn't meet the devil, it stands to reason that they didn't go to the devil's place.
"Didn't the city lord tell us to capture the demon spirit? How could we come back without the demon spirit?" Prince Chao said.
"You said you didn't meet the devil, I thought you..." City Lord Li coughed and didn't finish his sentence, but continued with a smile, "Then follow me."
City Lord Li took a few of them to the place where the materials were stored, but Mu Qingyi did not go with them. She stayed in the hall to talk to her third grandfather.
Mu Ruanen was also 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 land of the new moon, and he had the impression that resources were scarce, and he had to work harder than others to reach the master level in that kind of place.
For this third grandfather, Mu Qingyi's impression was very vague, she still looked at him with some doubts, waiting for him to speak first.
Mu Ruanen 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 didn't speak, but just looked at Mu Ruanen with those clear eyes.
Mu Ruanen sighed, and continued: "You probably don't know about Mu's situation, do you?"
Mu Qingyi nodded. Before, she thought she knew Mu Clan very well, but after coming to this cloud realm, she found that Mu Clan seemed far bigger than she imagined.
"Yunjing is ruled by two people, one is your second grandfather, Mu Yingqiao, and the other is the owner of the territory, Li Mang, and the Mu family who takes Mu Yingqiao as our leader in Yunjing is the Mu Dynasty of Jiangcheng. Mu Tuan's lineage." Mu Ruanen said.
"It's a bit complicated." Mu Qingyi said.
"Our Mu family is huge, big enough to rule a border. The Lord Muchuan is now our ruler, and there are many lines under the Lord Mu Jiang, one of which is the Mu Tuan Mai, and Mu Tuan is your great-grandfather Brother, our lineage is headed by him." Mu Ruanen said.
Mu Qingyi knows about genealogy, but what she didn't expect was that her own family tree would be so huge. You must know that when she was young, the Mu family gave her a very complicated and huge feeling, but what she had to do with Mu Ruanen Compared with the Mu family dynasty mentioned, it seems to be an ethnic group and an empire.
Mu Qingyi's great-grandfather was the King Mu who was called by the people of Vientiane City. King Mu opened up the Vientiane Realm and single-handedly turned the territory of Vientiane, which did not belong to the 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 that Mu Ruanen mentioned, Mu Qingyi had never heard of it, nor had she heard that her great-grandfather had brothers.
"The cohesion of our lineage is not very strong. The main reason is that the old man is unruly by nature and hardly interferes in family affairs. I don't know where the old man has wandered until now." Mu Ruanen said with a wry smile .
Mu Qingyi knew that the old man Mu Ruanen mentioned was referring to King Mu. People in the New Moon Land had always thought that King Mu should be buried in the ground, but what he didn't expect was that he was still alive, and he lived in a very chic way.
"What about my grandfather?" Mu Qingyi is most concerned about this issue now.
No matter how large the family is, Mu Qingyi really only cares about those who are the most direct blood relatives to her. She lost her father and mother very early, and was brought up by her grandfather, but her grandfather never After a few years, she left inexplicably. Afterwards, the entire seemingly crowded family became unusually deserted. The family in Mu Qingyi's heart seemed to suddenly become her 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 worthy of her heart.
After the strength reaches the soul emperor, the life span will be extended to about two hundred years, and the life span of the soul master class will be longer. It is normal for five generations to live together, but people's feelings will not be enlarged because of the extension of life span, and blood relationship can be truly established. Emotional, always within three generations.
"Your grandfather Mu Zuoli is a copy of the old man. I haven't seen him for many years. Our patriarch Mu Tuan appointed him as the general who protects the cloud environment. Under normal circumstances, he should stay in the cloud city. But I guess with his personality, being in Yuncheng every ten years is a great deal."
When it comes to Mu Zuoli, Mu Ruan'en doesn't seem to be in a good mood, but even if he doesn't like his younger brother, Mu Ruan'en can't spread his grievances on his granddaughter, thinking that this grandniece has been lonely all this time In the ground, Mu Ruanen also felt a little guilty. He should have sent someone to pick her up to Yunjing. Mu Zuoli and the old man never cared about the family affairs, so he had to take care of them.
Mu Ruanen told Mu Qingyi something about Mu Zuoli, and Mu Qingyi listened carefully.
After roughly finishing speaking, the hall suddenly fell silent. Mu Ruanen was immersed in the family's old affairs, and suddenly realized that this was not good, so he changed the subject and said, "Why did you suddenly appear in the cloud realm? Isn't there an old man in the cloud gate?" Watch, are they allowing 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 the moment Mu Qingyi roughly described the situation of the Vientiane Realm.
Why did Mu Ruan's jaw close after hearing this, and it took a while before he stared at Mu Qingyi and said, "You...you mean, you plan...to make New Moon Land independent from the Cloud Realm?"
Mu Qingyi nodded seriously.
"Grandniece, don't say that again..." Mu Ruanen lowered his voice, and quickly recited the spell, forming an isolation barrier in the hall.
The three major palaces have stood in the New Moon Land for thousands of years, and they have always been responsible for protecting the New Moon Land. The three disasters recorded in history were also quelled by the Three Great Palaces. The three major palaces are more suitable to be in charge of New Moon Land. If it is put into the hands of others, especially people like Ling Chan and Li Kuangdeng, how can Mu Qingyi agree
"Our lineage can only be regarded as a big family in Yunjing, but the person surnamed Li is actually in charge of Yunjing. Originally, the development of Vientiane Realm should be included in the private territory of the old man. Later, the old man caused trouble, and the territorial rights were taken by Shenzong. Deprived, now your New Moon Land is under the management of Yunjing, that is, the Li family. It’s okay for you to kill Ling Chan, but it will be troublesome if you kill Li Kuangdeng. After all, Li Kuangdeng was ordered to go, you killed He, Li Kuang will definitely be angry when he reaches the first level." Mu Ruanen rubbed his temples, this matter is a bit tricky.
"We have no choice." Mu Qingyi said.
"Anyway, independence is still the worst policy. You just came out of the New Moon Land, so you don't know how strong the ruler here is. Chu Mu, as you mentioned, is still young, so he can't possibly defeat him. People who are at the level of the master of the cloud realm, and once he fails, you will continue to be squeezed out by various forces in the New Moon Land." Mu Ruanen said.
"I think he can do it." Mu Qingyi said.
Mu Ruanen looked into Mu Qingyi's eyes, and seemed to read something from her eyes, and sighed: "I will send someone to find the old man, the old man still has some deterrent power in the cloud environment, if we can suppress this matter, Don't talk about being independent, and put the management right on Li Ziran. Although Li Ziran is a bit old-fashioned, he is kind-hearted. Your New Moon Land is self-governing, and occasionally reports some situations, and then submits according to Yuncheng's regulations. Some taxes would be nice."
The so-called taxation items are actually soul cores, soul crystals, spirit stones, medicinal materials and other spiritual objects. This collection was done by Lingchan before, and later Lingchan handed over these things to Emperor Ji Yusuo.
The resources of the New Moon Land are very scarce and surrounded by many forbidden areas. If Shangna's spirits are calculated according to the standards of other third-level lands in the Cloud Realm, it is estimated that there will not be many masters in the New Moon Land in the future. Super powerhouses, even soul emperors and soul masters are greatly reduced.
However, Mu Qingyi also felt that it would be good if there was a way out. It would be great if King Mu could come forward to resolve the matter. I would work harder on the matter of accepting spiritual objects, and obtain resources from some mazes in the Cloud Realm as the upper hand. Na, this will allow New Moon Land to develop better.
"Let's do this first. Your aptitude is good. I will find some ways to raise you to the soul master level, so that your strength will improve faster. You can stay with me first. Three years at the latest. You Then you can step into the soul master level, and then I will introduce you to the Mu Tuan patriarch, and you will have a wider room for improvement when you arrive in Jiangcheng." Mu Ruanen has already thought about it, this grandniece It is a rare talent to be able to own a dominator-level creature without any support, and it should be able to become a young leader in the Mu Dynasty.
Mu Qingyi shook her head and said: "I want to continue to practice with my friends, and I feel that my soul has loosened a bit. Maybe it won't take three years to break through."
"Qing Yi, you should know that with the appreciation of the patriarch, you will be able to stand higher in the future and easily surpass those few friends of yours." Mu Ruanen said.
Mu Qingyi still shook her head, she didn't want to stand taller, she was simply obsessed with the way of soul pet just like Chu Mu, and more importantly, she gradually found that the window of her heart was closed as before. .
The taste of loneliness is not pleasant. Mu Qingyi has been tasting it since she was a child. Even though she became a famous and respected Tianji in the New Moon Land, she was still isolated on a high place, and what she saw was a group of colorless people. , Then I don’t know why to be strong.
At that time, there was no one who could whisper to her like Ye Qingzi, no one who teased her unscrupulously like Ye Wansheng, and no one like Chu Mu...
