After hearing Ji Hongwen's words, Mu Qingli and Bei Mingye did not react much, but the emperor was extremely angry.

Not only did they make the palace a mess, but he also had to endure such false accusations. Even if he didn't practice this evil magic and his cultivation level improved in the future, he wouldn't be able to stop the gossip.

Mr. Mu saw the displeasure in the emperor's expression and shouted angrily:

"How could the people of our Tianlin Nation even consider such evil magic? Only people with low talents like you can use it!"

"That's right! Do you know who saw the sorcery? They've already surpassed the Spirit King in strength and have fled to the other side of the sea. Your false accusation is truly laughable!"

Mr. Pei received the news late, and when he arrived at the palace, he heard what Mr. Mu had just said.

Although he did not see what the witchcraft was, he stood on the side of his country.

When Mu Qingli heard Mr. Pei's voice, he turned his head and saw Pei Yan standing behind Mr. Pei.

Mu Qingli had just greeted Mr. Pei when Ji Hongwen extracted important information from what Mr. Pei had just said.

She looked at Mu Qingli with an unsure expression: "You've already gone to the other side of the sea? No, that's impossible!"

Mu Qingli withdrew his gaze and chuckled, "Don't you think it's unfair? You guys went through so much trouble to reach the Spirit King level, but I got there effortlessly, and even reached the other side of the sea before you did."

Mu Qingli knew how to kill people and destroy their hearts. His few light words made Ji Hongwen even more dissatisfied.

She wanted to resist again, but Mu Qingli did not give her any chance. He smashed her dantian with one palm, and also smashed Zhang Bao's dantian at the same time.

Mu Qingli didn't want to kill them, but wanted to hand them over to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, these two traitors have been eliminated. You can deal with them without worry."

The emperor was filled with emotion. Mu Qingli's current status was much higher than his own, but she did not disrespect him at all, nor did she use her strength to shake the imperial power. It was truly admirable.

Thinking of this, he bowed to Mu Qingli and said, "Miss Mu, I am grateful to you for what happened today. However, the palace is not suitable for entertaining guests today. I will hold a banquet in the palace tomorrow to thank you."

Mu Qingli accepted his bow and did not avoid it: "Thank you very much, Your Majesty, but what should we do with this thing?"

Mu Qingli raised the scroll in his hand and asked.

When the emperor saw the scroll, he thought of what Ji Hongwen had just said, and he was very resistant to it. "This kind of evil magic should be destroyed. Miss Mu, how about I hand the bag over to you?"

Mu Qingli glanced at the scroll and nodded in agreement: "Since the emperor trusts me, I will destroy it in front of everyone."

The scroll hung in the air, and a flame flew out from Mu Qingli's hand, trapping the scroll inside. The scroll was burning with crackling sounds, but it burned out in an instant, leaving only black ashes.

Mu Qingli wrapped the remaining ashes in a talisman, and as the rune disappeared, the ashes also disappeared without a trace.

Everyone in the palace saw it clearly, and after the scroll was solved, everyone seemed to relax.

Mr. Mu and Mr. Pei looked at each other, said their goodbyes and left, not wanting to delay the emperor from tidying up the palace.

Seeing this, the other families also said goodbye and left. However, once they left, the news of Mu Qingli and Pei Yan's return could no longer be concealed.

Before Mu Qingli could even sit comfortably on the bench, the doorman from the General's Mansion hurried over again: "Miss, there are a group of people outside the General's Mansion. They all want to see you and take advantage of you!"

Old Master Mu had a stern face and was a little dissatisfied with the people outside. He hadn't even had a good word with Li'er yet, and he was interrupted by these people!

Old Master Mu was unhappy, but those people outside were not here to cause trouble, so he had to at least go out and meet them.

Even Yun Ling, who had been secretly talking to Ning Haodang, came over and clung to Mu Qingli: "Miss! Why didn't you tell me you were back?"

Mu Qingli looked at Old Man Mu, Yun Ling, and Bei Mingye at the same time, and felt that his eyes were not enough.

Finally, he came up with an idea: "Yunling, you came to bring cakes to Grandpa today. I haven't eaten them for a long time and they are a little leftover. Why don't you go back and make some more for me? I will be back to the courtyard tonight. I have something else I want to ask you."

When Yun Ling heard that her young lady wanted to eat the cakes she made, she happily agreed: "Okay! I'll go prepare some snacks for her right away. I'll make a little of everything, and she can have whatever she wants!"

Yun Ling went back happily. Mu Qingli said to Bei Mingye again, "There are a lot of people outside. Do you want to go?"

"No, I remembered that I have something to do. I'm going back to Qingyun Academy first. I should be back by the time you finish it."

Mu Qingli nodded, and after seeing Bei Mingye off, he walked out of the mansion with Old Man Mu.

Seeing those people outside, Mu Qingli felt that the doorman's report was too subtle. Was this too much? The threshold of the general's mansion was about to be broken down!

If the guards from the general's mansion hadn't been maintaining order outside, a stampede would have probably occurred.

The people in the front row could easily spot Mu Qingli and Old Man Mu: "Miss Mu! I admire you so much! I heard you're an alchemist. Can I buy a pill? I'll keep it as a family heirloom!"

Mu Qingli's mouth twitched when he heard what this person said, but this was not the most outrageous thing. The most outrageous thing was that someone actually knelt down!

Although he is just a child, he looks no more than five or six years old.

Mu Qingli was still frightened and ordered the guards to pull the child up.

The child's parents followed up with, "Miss Mu, you're truly like a living deity. Let our son worship you. I hope he can achieve great things in the future just like you!"

Mu Qingli finally couldn't help but speak: "I'm just an ordinary person. If you want to see me, I'll come out, but I don't want to see things like making children kneel down and worship me anymore!"

The other parents with children were about to follow suit, but after hearing what Mu Qingli said, they all stopped.

Someone suddenly had an idea and asked, "Miss Mu, can you touch my daughter's head? Let her get some of your glory too."

Mu Qingli thought about the scenes of people chasing stars in his previous life, and it was probably like this.

Come to think of it, it’s not easy for those stars. They have to deal with these situations every day, which is so tiring.

She raised her hand, and everyone seemed to have pressed the pause button and shut their mouths.

"I know what you're thinking, but I can't possibly satisfy so many of you at once. However, I won't let you come here in vain."
