Chapter 1095 - 180: Finally Met (Double Update)

Chapter 1095: Chapter 180: Finally Met (Double Update)

In an instant, a figure in flamboyant red attire appeared, possessing unparalleled beauty and a face so captivating it blurred the lines of gender. Their visage exuded three parts wildness, three parts elegance, two parts heroism, and one part allure.

The eyes of the leading woman flashed with amazement, and even the two women accompanying her revealed shy expressions upon seeing Mu Qingge.

Growing up in Phoenix Heaven Domain, they rarely encountered such handsome men.

"Aunt, I thought he had good potential and wanted to invite him to our domain, but this person, unaware of the favor, actually declined my goodwill." Chou Yu spoke indignantly to the leading woman.

The leading woman composed herself, regaining her poise. Although her surprise was not visible outwardly, internally she mused, ’What an exceptionally handsome man! As elegant as jade, as fiery as a flame!’

She cast a deep glance at Chou Yu, said nothing, and then turned to Mu Qingge, addressing him: "Although our Phoenix Heaven Domain isn’t the strongest in the Four Seas Divine Land among the Sixteen Great Divine Domains, it has its own distinctive appeal. Why must you be so resolute, sir?"

Her words were spoken with exceptional skill.

Clearly, Phoenix Heaven Domain is the weakest among the Sixteen Divine Domains. Yet, she used the phrase ’not the strongest’ to mask the fact that it’s the weakest. And the term ’distinctive appeal’ induces imagination and curiosity.

Once curiosity is aroused, it easily leads people where others wish them to go.

Mu Qingge, having interacted with these two Phoenix Heaven disciples, couldn’t help but find it amusing. To her, such recruitment tactics were akin to a madam soliciting patrons.

Feeling a change of heart, she altered her initial reluctance to get involved.

Mu Qingge smiled, looking at the woman from the other group, "It’s not that I don’t wish to join the Phoenix Heaven Domain, but I’ve already pledged allegiance to another Divine Domain; how could I join another?"

"Oh? The gentleman is also a disciple of a Divine Domain?" The leading woman was momentarily surprised, a hint of disappointment in her gaze.

And the pink-clad woman who first spoke to Mu Qingge also frowned upon realizing Mu Qingge was a Divine Domain disciple. Her expression was akin to a cooked duck flying away.

"Exactly." Mu Qingge nodded slightly.

The leading woman’s eyes twinkled, smiling warmly, "Might I ask which Divine Domain the gentleman belongs to?"

Seeing her reluctance to give up, Mu Qingge chuckled, taking out her identity token and tossing it onto the table.

The token made a sound as it landed, drawing the attention of everyone in the tea pavilion.

Because that identity token was obviously extraordinary, distinct from those of typical disciples.

The leading woman was startled, took two steps forward, reaching for the table. But halfway, she hesitated and glanced at Mu Qingge, her eyes seeming to ask if she could pick it up for a closer look.

Mu Qingge had deliberately thrown the token out for them to see clearly.

She slightly raised her brow, subtly nodding.

The leading woman smiled, finally reaching out to take the token in hand.

She examined it closely, murmuring, "East Divine Land, Huan Yue Domain..." Suddenly, her eyes widened in shock, exclaiming, "The token of the Little Divine Emperor!"

"What? Little Divine Emperor!"

The two female disciples behind the leading woman were also startled by her words. They exchanged incredulous glances and looked at Mu Qingge with disbelief.

Even the female owner of the tea pavilion was stunned, covering her mouth in shock as she stared at Mu Qingge.

The pink-clad woman, who had previously made things difficult for Mu Qingge, had a face with shifting expressions. Her gaze towards Mu Qingge became increasingly complicated. Perhaps, she had not expected that the person she had taken an interest in would have such a prominent background.

They may not know about Mu Qingge’s deeds, nor who Mu Qingge truly is.

But a title like Little Divine Emperor was enough to astonish them, making them dare not covet Mu Qingge anymore.

The Little Divine Emperor of other Divine Domains isn’t someone you can poach just because you want to.

The leading woman’s demeanor became somewhat awkward. She held Mu Qingge’s token with both hands, cautiously returning it, unable to toss it back casually as before. "So it’s the Little Divine Emperor of Huan Yue visiting us; we in Phoenix Heaven Domain greatly appreciate your presence."

Her status could not compare to the Little Divine Emperor, so she could only lower her head, displaying respect.

Mu Qingge raised her hand, the token flown abruptly into her palm. She weighed it for a moment, then put it away.

The tea pavilion was remarkably quiet.

It seemed no one dared to speak unless Mu Qingge did.

Mu Qingge chuckled, then spoke, "Now that you ladies know my identity, I definitely cannot enter the Phoenix Heaven Domain."

The leading woman smiled awkwardly, "The Little Divine Emperor’s esteemed and deeply favored by the Huan Yue God Emperor; naturally, you cannot join our Phoenix Heaven Domain."

"Since that is the case, please feel free to leave." Mu Qingge replied playfully.

Though she issued a polite dismissal, they evidently didn’t wish to leave outright. At the least, they weren’t ready to part. The leading woman said to Mu Qingge, "Since the Little Divine Emperor has come to our Phoenix Heaven Domain, wouldn’t it be remiss to ignore you? Not knowing before was excusable, but now that we’re aware, we must request the Little Divine Emperor accompany us back to meet our God Emperor so that our Phoenix Heaven Domain can properly host you. We wouldn’t want our God Emperor blaming us for being disrespectful later."

"That... seems too much trouble, doesn’t it?" Mu Qingge laughed. Initially, she hadn’t planned to disturb Li Yuan. After all, she needed to head to Demon Forest and hadn’t yet reached the time to settle scores. But being entangled by Phoenix Heaven’s disciples changed her mind. She decided to meet the Phoenix Heaven God Emperor personally; otherwise, she wouldn’t have revealed her token to establish her identity.

"No trouble at all! It would be an honor for the Little Divine Emperor to visit, how could it be a bother?" the leading female disciple quickly replied.

Mu Qingge lightly furrowed her brow, appearing to seriously contemplate, and finally, under the ladies’ expectant gazes, nodded. "Alright then, since your invitation is so earnest, I shall go and pay a visit to the Phoenix Heaven God Emperor."

The leading woman was ecstatic upon Mu Qingge’s agreement, promptly directing the two female disciples behind her to prepare swiftly.

Mu Qingge stood up, took out a small piece of Divine Jade, and tossed it towards the tea pavilion owner.

The owner caught it in a fluster, her expression filled with fear. "This... this... Little Divine Emperor, please consider this tea my treat, there’s no need to give me Divine Jade."

Mu Qingge shook her head slowly, "One thing for one thing. You’ve already treated me to snacks; how could you not accept tea money, wouldn’t you be at a loss?"

The owner glanced at the untouched pastry plates on the table.
