From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

Mu Qing Mountain continued, "Since you also agree, young man, then it's settled. If you don't reach your target within two years..."

Without hesitation, Mu Huanqing interrupted him, "Then I will disable my own cultivation level."

"You girl!"

Mu Qing Mountain's just-calmed emotions surged again in an instant. His granddaughter had always been an obedient treasure. When had she ever been so rebellious?

"Grandpa," Mu Huanqing went on, "let me put it to you this way. I am a member of the human race, and naturally, I will go to the battlefield to protect our kind and do my best to kill the enemy. But I hope you understand that the abilities I possess are gifts from Ah Ran.

Whatever he desires, I will fulfill with my actions, and no one can stop me!"

Mu Qing Mountain, unable to come up with a retort, angrily flicked his sleeve and remained silent.

Even if Fang Ren didn't reach the level of Song Mobei, as long as he could approach the top of the prodigies, Mu Qing Mountain could bear the world's slander himself and let the two of them be together. But the problem was... now Fang Ren was too weak.

"Qing'er is already at the age to discuss marriage. She's twenty-five now, and the whole world is watching her wedding," said Mu Qing Mountain, looking at Fang Ren with furrowed brows. "Giving you two years is already my limit."

Fang Ren said nothing. Indeed, at twenty-five, he was already beyond the usual age for discussing marriage. The eyes of the world were fixed on this matter, and as the Family Head, Mu Qing Mountain allowing Mu Huanqing to marry late was to bear the pressure of public opinion.

Seeing that he didn't respond, Mu Qing Mountain took a string of beads from his hand and said, "This is actually made of Sun Stone, which can roughly test a person's talent. Try to inject your True Qi into it."

Fang Ren gave him a look and then placed his hand on the beads. The grey Spiritual Energy gathered in his palm, beginning to channel into the beads.

Crack—

As soon as the grey True Qi appeared, the entire string of beads suddenly exploded, shattering into fragments that flew in all directions.

Mu Qing Mountain suddenly retracted his hand, clenching it tightly into a fist, his brows furrowed and his face somber.

"This..."

Lin Bozhong, who was beside them, was stunned. The Sun Stone was commonly known among Earth's people as a True Qi Testing Stone, used to roughly test a cultivator's talent. Since the test involved the infusion of True Qi, the stone was supposed to be very sturdy.

How could it possibly shatter from just a touch of True Qi?

Mu Huanqing was also somewhat dazed. How could the Sun Stone shatter just from a bit of True Qi?

Mu Qing Mountain clenched his fist tighter as if he had not seen what happened in his hand, instead looking at Mu Huanqing and saying, "When are you returning, Qing'er? Even if you're not getting married, the battlefield in Zone One is tense and really needs you."

"I..."

Mu Huanqing looked at Fang Ren, her eyes filled with reluctance.

"Wait a minute," Fang Ren frowned and said. "What was the cause of her loss of cultivation level in the first place? Uncle Han said it was man-made, so if it was intentional, sending her to the battlefield in Zone One is sending her to her death, isn't it?"

Mu Qing Mountain frowned and replied, "The instigator has been found, but we lack sufficient evidence to convict. The perpetrator has already left Zone One, and with the Nine Heavens Corps by Qing'er's side, such negligence won't happen again."

"Who's the perpetrator?" Fang Ren asked.

"It's of no use telling you," Mu Qing Mountain replied impatiently.

"Since you've given me a chance to prove myself, I might have a chance to kill the mastermind behind this," Fang Ren said.

Mu Qing Mountain glanced at him and revealed, "Leader of the Tiandao Sword Sect's daughter, Xia Fu Lan."

"Xia Fu Lan..."

Fang Ren silently noted the name in his heart, then turned and said, "So if the daughter of the Leader of the Tiandao Sword Sect wants to harm Qing'er, how can you still let her marry Song Mobei from the Sword Sect? Isn't that just endangering her?"

Mu Qing Mountain shook his head, "You really don't understand the Tiandao Sword Sect. The Sect Leader is a veteran who has dedicated seventy years to the human race on the battlefield, admired for his upright and incorruptible character.

If he were to confirm Xia Fu Lan's misconduct, he would personally cripple her cultivation level and apologize publicly. Furthermore, Song Mobei is universally recognized as a gentleman of integrity.

Although he's sibling disciples with Xia Fu Lan, if this matter is confirmed, he definitely won't side with her. So these two issues are unrelated."

"What evidence is missing?" Fang Ren asked.

"All witnesses on the battlefield are dead, and the physical evidence has been thoroughly destroyed. It's almost impossible to convict Xia Fu Lan. Currently, she's finished her trial and is being punished by the Leader of the Tiandao Sect for fleeing the battlefield," Mu Qing Mountain sighed.

Fang Ren remained silent, his face expressionless. Without evidence to convict the guilty, he would solve it in another, more personal way.

Feeling he could no longer persuade his granddaughter, Mu Qing Mountain turned and began walking downstairs, adding, "Qing'er, come home soon."

"I'll escort you, Grandpa Mu."

Lin Bozhong witnessed the conversation and, coming out of his shock, promptly followed.

Seeing her grandfather leave, Mu Huanqing couldn't bring herself to feel happy. The battlefield in Zone One was urgent, and regardless of whether Mu Qing Mountain urged her or not, she would have to hurry back.

However, she remained resolute on the issue of marriage.

Fang Ren knelt down to pick up the little Qianye that was still circling on the ground and asked Mu Huanqing, "When will you be leaving?"

"I... want to spend a little more time with Ah Ran."

Mu Huanqing gently embraced him from behind.

Soon, all the Mu Family members downstairs had left. Lin Bo returned upstairs, saw the two quietly embracing, and smiled, "I'll step out for a while."

After all, they were about to say goodbye to each other in a short while.

"Take this with you."

As Lin Bo turned to leave, Fang Ren tossed Qianye out to him.

Lin Bozhong immediately caught the little guy, who looked at Fang Ren with a wronged expression on his face.

Smack—

Fang Ren suddenly didn't close the door properly, and Lin Bozhong stroked the little guy in his hands, saying, "Your master is very sad right now; let's not disturb him."

The little guy folded his arms across his chest and turned his head away in anger. Right after, Lin Bozhong flew off with it towards the outside of the villa.

In the room, Fang Ren tightly held Mu Huanqing, his expression filled with distress: "I must reach the Chongshan Realm within two years."

Mu Huanqing stretched out her hand and touched his head, whispering softly, "It's okay. Even if you were a mortal, I would still marry you."

"That way you would suffer too much. I don't want to see everyone speaking ill of you."

"I also don't want to see you in pain from pushing yourself in cultivation..."

Fang Ren cupped her cheeks in his hands and kissed her passionately on the lips.

After a long kiss, Mu Huanqing casually released a breath, covering back the roof that had been blown away by Qianye, shielding everything from the outside.

Having done this, Mu Huanqing pushed Fang Ren to the edge of the bed. With one step, she pinned him down, their lips parted, and their faces inches apart, they looked at each other, breathing hard.

"Ah Ran..."

"What is it..."

"Let me have your baby..."

"..."

After a brief pause, Fang Ren pressed her beneath him, gazing into her aroused eyes, he said with a sorrowful voice, "I never thought that one day, I would sleep with the Xuan Nv of the Nine Heavens."

"Then what do you want to see from me?" Mu Huanqing asked.

"I want to see every side of you."

"Mm, I'll show them all to you."

With that, her eyes turned silver, and a holy white radiance began to emanate from behind her, making her appear like a sacrosanct saint.

But the words "sacrosanct" had never existed in Fang Ren's heart regarding Mu Huanqing; she was his wife, and their intimate union was righteous and natural.

Mu Huanqing took the initiative to undo his clothing, and the room was filled with the air of spring.

This was their last frenzy before parting—they were so active in their desire; he was so reluctant to let go, giving her everything she wanted.

...

Around four o'clock in the afternoon, Mu Huanqing suited up in her silver armor, her tall figure wrapped in pieces of Silver Armor yet still looking so slender.

Fang Ren was in his shorts, his upper body bare, wearing slippers, standing opposite her with a resigned smile on his face.

The madness that had to be unleashed was over; it was time to confront the challenges ahead with courage.

The Silver Armor aura used to shield the villa's rooftop had been retracted by Mu Huanqing, and sunlight began to shine on the faces of the two.

"Ah Ran, I will make time to come back soon," Mu Huanqing said to him with a smile.

"And I definitely won't let you down," Fang Ren said.

Mu Huanqing still had a sweet smile on her face, her hands nervously twiddling behind her back; her gaze briefly lingered on the bedside before saying, "Ah Ran, you don't need to force yourself in cultivating; I will solve everything."

"What are you talking about?"

Fang Ren went up and stroked her silky hair, a mixture of happiness and sorrow in his smile. This moment felt like the saying: Having such a wife, what more could a husband ask for!

Mu Huanqing kept the sweet smile on her face and said, "I will become very strong, strong enough to annihilate all the creatures of the Void, to restore peace to the world, strong enough to break free from everyone's constraints so that no one dares to impede our being together."

Her tone was exceptionally earnest.

"You silly thing," Fang Ren laughed, "I won't let you struggle alone. I will also become very strong. Within two years, reach the Chongshan Realm, and surpass Song Mobei within seven, and marry you uprightly, allowing no objections from anyone."

After a long look at each other, Mu Huanqing suddenly turned her head and said, "I have to leave now, Ah Ran."

Her eyes reddened. She was afraid that if she stayed any longer, it would be even harder to leave him.

"Yeah, go on and be safe on the battlefield," Fang Ren said, watching her back.

He wanted to hug her from behind, but he was afraid that if he did, Mu Huanqing would burst into tears.

"I will come back to see you very soon."

After Mu Huanqing finished speaking, her True Qi surged and she flew directly into the sky.

Still, tears fell from her face.
