Tianlin Kingdom, General's Mansion.

Yun Ling carried the food box to Mr. Mu's residence. When Mr. Mu saw her coming, he teased her:

"Yunling, you send me these desserts every day. I'm almost turning into a sugar man because of all the desserts you've brought me. However, I think you have other motives."

Mr. Mu smiled and picked up a piece of dessert. He glanced at Ning Haodang, the servant behind him, and handed the food box to Ning Haodang: "I'm old and can't eat anything too sweet. Please help me with it."

When Yun Ling heard what Grandpa Mu said, a hint of unnaturalness flashed across her face. When she saw the old man give the dessert to Ning Haodang, a suspicious blush suddenly flashed across her face.

Mr. Mu looked at the strange atmosphere between the two, and the smile on his face never stopped. Seeing that the two were only communicating with their eyes, he simply waved his hand:

"You two can talk about whatever you want to say outside. I don't need anyone here."

When Ning Haodang heard Mr. Mu's instructions, he followed Yun Ling out in unison.

Seeing his actions, Old Master Mu smiled and shook his head: "Children nowadays really can't hide things..."

Suddenly a voice sounded: "Who can't hide things?"

Old Master Mu immediately looked up and saw Mu Qingli standing at the door with a big smile on her face.

Grandpa Mu felt that the dessert he had just eaten was not as sweet as his granddaughter's smile.

Mu Qingli took Bei Mingye's hand and walked to sit next to Grandpa Mu. He didn't hear Grandpa Mu's reply, so he couldn't help but say, "Grandpa?"

Mr. Mu was looking at Mu Qingli and Bei Mingye at the moment. He breathed a sigh of relief when he found that they were not injured, and a look of joy appeared on his face:

"Nothing, just talking about Yunling and Ning Haodang. But why did you guys come back so suddenly?"

When he heard Yun Ling's name, Mu Qingli wanted to ask in detail, but when he heard the next question from Mr. Mu, he answered first.

After hearing the reason, Mr. Mu patted Mu Qingli on the shoulder and said in a feigned anger, "You kid, didn't you give me a communication stone last time? Why didn't you tell me when you came back? I thought you were injured!"

Mu Qingli felt a little guilty, but when he thought about the past few months since he left, he felt confident again because his grandfather had never replied to his messages except when he did.

"Grandpa, you're still talking about me. You didn't even send me a message when I was communicating with you!"

Mu Qingli also pretended to be angry and looked at Grandpa Mu. Grandpa Mu turned his head away, not meeting her eyes: "I... I'm busy every day, I don't have time to send it to you."

Mu Qingli naturally didn't believe it, and kept pestering Grandpa Mu to talk, and finally found out his true intentions.

"Aren't I afraid of disturbing your practice?"

Mu Qingli was a little amused when he heard this reason: "Grandpa, why are you worried about this? I will also send you a message before I go into seclusion for cultivation. I will reply when I am free at other times."

Old Master Mu said that he understood, but Mu Qingli knew from his expression that he was just trying to fool her.

Forget it, he’s my own grandfather. I’ll just send more messages from now on.

After coming to his senses, Mu Qingli brought the topic back to what he had just heard when he came in: "Grandpa, what happened to Yunling and Ning Haodang?"

Old Master Mu was immediately amused. "These two kids, I don't know when they fell in love. I didn't notice it until Yunling started sending desserts to our courtyard every day. Then I realized something was amiss. She used to come every few days, but lately she's been coming every day."

Mu Qingli raised her eyebrows after hearing this. Yunling was her maid, and Ning Haodang was Mr. Mu's personal servant. These two people rarely met each other, so how could they get together?

Mu Qingli was a little confused and planned to ask Yun Ling about it when he got home in the evening. It just so happened that he hadn't eaten the desserts made by Yun Ling for a long time, so this time he could ask her to make more and put them in his own space.

"Grandpa, what then?"

Old Master Mu immediately continued, "Until one day, I noticed Ning Haodang had an extra purse on him. It was hanging there, very conspicuous, and I couldn't ignore it even if I wanted to."

As Mr. Mu spoke, he gestured to the area around his waist. After that, he started talking about Yunling: "I felt that this purse was a little familiar. Until Yunling came to deliver cakes, and she also had an identical purse on her."

Mr. Mu stopped talking here, as if leaving room for imagination.

Mu Qingli also laughed: "They really are, they don't want to hide anything at all."

Just as Mr. Mu was about to respond, a servant suddenly rushed in from outside: "General, something bad has happened!"

Mr. Mu's expression changed, and his voice became stern: "What kind of haste are you in?!"

The servant wiped the sweat from his forehead. Even though he was being scolded by Old Master Mu, he still said hurriedly, "Two powerful men above the rank of Spirit King suddenly appeared in the palace, and now they are forcing the emperor to abdicate!"

Before Mr. Mu could finish his words, he stood up and headed towards the palace without even saying hello to Mu Qingli and Bei Mingye.

Mu Qingli glanced at Bei Mingye, who happened to look over as well: "Do you want to go over and take a look?"

Mu Qingli nodded without hesitation: "I'd like to see why two Spirit Kings suddenly appeared. Could they be coming from Shenzhou?"

Although Mu Qingli expressed his doubts, his pace did not slow down. In just a moment, he arrived at the palace.

At this moment, the palace was in a mess. All the precious porcelains that had been placed in the palace were smashed to pieces, and the road was littered with porcelain debris.

Old Master Mu was standing beside the emperor at the moment, angrily shouting at the two Spirit Kings who had broken into the palace: "Who are you? Why did you come to my Tianlin Kingdom to cause trouble?"

When the two heard Mr. Mu's question, they suddenly laughed: "Aren't you just asking nonsense, old man? I told you that your Tianlin Kingdom should belong to our Zhangka Kingdom, but you insisted on resisting! Then don't blame me for taking action."

Old Master Mu stood in front of the emperor to prevent them from assassinating him: "Arrogant boy! Just the two of you?"

The two men seemed to have heard a joke. After looking at each other, they laughed even louder. "We are now invincible in the Cang Qiong Continent. We are about to unify the entire Cang Qiong Continent. Stop your meaningless struggle."

Mu Qingli rushed to the main hall and looked from his direction. He felt that the backs of the two people were very familiar, but he did not see their faces and was not sure whether he had really seen them.

She wanted to go forward to confirm, but unexpectedly, the two men seemed to have noticed someone coming from behind and turned their heads.

When Mu Qingli saw their appearance, he blurted out, "It's you!"
