The villain, Xiao Nanliang, caused the female lead excruciating pain.

Mufiel soon arrived at the cemetery on the back hill.

The entire mountain here is a tomb, and people of higher status are buried at the highest point. As the former sect leader, Su Yun was naturally buried at the summit.

It was actually just a cenotaph; the real body was buried in the Kingdom of Women.

After all, fallen leaves return to their roots.

To show respect for their ancestors, all disciples of the Yunmiao Immortal Sect must walk up the mountain to the cemetery.

Mufier was no exception.

She climbed the steps expressionlessly and soon reached the top of the mountain, where she saw her husband, whom she somewhat disliked.

A figure stood before the silent cemetery.

Mu Feier was slightly stunned. She wondered if it was just her imagination, but Su Qi seemed different today.

Her long, flowing silver hair swayed gently in the breeze, like a silver waterfall.

Her petite figure appeared upright and resolute at this moment, and her white robe fluttered in the wind, yet it could not conceal her loneliness and sorrow.

Her face, more beautiful than a woman's, was filled with sorrow as she gazed silently at the tombstone before her, her lips trembling slightly, as if she had a thousand words to say but could not express them.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and Mu Feier came to her senses slightly, preparing to go over.

But Su Qi suddenly spoke up.

"Mother, perhaps you are really wrong. Feelings are something that cannot be cultivated. I have tried for three years but I still cannot get into her heart."

Upon hearing this, Mu Feier stopped in her tracks as if possessed.

"I know your good intentions back then, wanting to find me someone to rely on before you died, but... a forced relationship won't be happy." But it quenches thirst!

Silently adding a sentence in his mind, Su Qi raised the wine pot and took a sip.

The liquor spilled from the corner of his mouth and slid down his smooth neck, giving off a sense of untamed freedom.

This was something Mufier had never seen before.

The Su Qirou of the past was weak and submissive, and in front of her, he was a sycophant, with an extremely humble attitude.

“This life is exhausting for both of us. Rather than tormenting each other like this, it’s better to let each other go. Mother, please forgive your unfilial son. I have tried my best to fulfill your last wish, but please forgive my incompetence. I couldn’t even hold onto a woman’s heart.”

Tears welled in his eyes, and Su Qi looked up at the sky, trying to hold them back, but it was all in vain. Tears streamed down his pale cheeks, dripping onto the cold ground and splashing up heartbreaking droplets.

"As for your concerns..." Su Qi paused, seemingly unsure of what to do next.

"Relying on others is never as good as relying on yourself. As long as my cultivation is strong, no one will dare to bully me. I have made up my mind. I will go into seclusion and will not come out until my cultivation breaks through."

Upon hearing this, Mu Feier felt a chill run down her spine.

She knew perfectly well that Suqika had been stuck at his current level for many years. The sect had provided him with numerous elixirs and miraculous medicines, but none of them could help him break through.

His aptitude was simply too poor; the Foundation Establishment realm was already his limit.

breakthrough?

What breakthrough will he achieve?

Isn't this just a form of seclusion?

It would be a lie for Mufier to say she wasn't surprised.

Unexpectedly, Su Qi, who looked even more delicate than a woman and whom he had always been unable to understand, had such great determination.

His opinion of Su Qi changed somewhat.

What Su Qi said next sent a shiver down her spine.

“It’s been exactly three years. The Mu family has weathered the crisis and regained its footing. In addition, her cultivation has broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm. The Mu family should no longer use her as a tool for marriage alliances.”

This is a thorn in Mufier's side.

When the family faced a crisis, the first thing the elders thought of was to have her marry into another powerful family to gain their support.

"Hehehe..."

Su Qi suddenly let out a self-deprecating laugh, raised his hand to cover his eyes and shook his head.

“Mother, your foolish move has ruined me. I only asked you to help Senior Sister Mu, but you took the opportunity to arrange my marriage with her, which is why she still hates me to this day.”

He sighed deeply and looked into the distance.

"Perhaps we are destined to be apart in this life!"

After staring for a long time, Su Qi finally looked away, lifted his robe, knelt down, and kowtowed several times.

It was a really serious incident; his forehead was even bleeding from the impact.

"I'm sorry, Mother! This is the first and last time I'll disobey your decision, I..."

At this point, Su Qi paused, his handsome thin lips pursed as if hesitating, but in the end he still firmly gave the order, his voice resolute.

"I want a divorce from Mu Feier. I know she doesn't want to see me, so I've already sent the divorce papers to the Mu family. Please forgive my last act of willfulness, Mother!"

After saying that, he kowtowed several more times, got up, and walked away from the other side.

By the time Mu Feier came to her senses, Su Qi had already gone far away.

The amount of information was overwhelming, and she couldn't process it all at once.

All she knew at the time was that Su Qi went to see his master, and then his master went to the Mu family, and their marriage was arranged.

She initially thought that Su Qi was taking advantage of her vulnerability.

Unexpectedly... it turned out that he had only gone to ask his master for help, and it was his master who had taken it upon himself to arrange the marriage between the two of them.

and also……

He actually wants a divorce, and the divorce papers have already been sent out!

Mu Feier thought that Su Qi would not set her free, so she never mentioned divorce.

She had thought that she would be very happy if one day she was no longer Su Qi's wife.

But when the time came, she found that she wasn't as happy as she had imagined.

Looking at that lonely and desolate figure, Mu Feier recalled the way the boy had looked up at the sky and wept just now.

Making such a decision... he must have been in a lot of pain, right?

Standing before the tombstone, Mu Feier remained silent for a long time as she looked at the words on it.

From the moment her master and family forced her to marry Su Qi, her respect for her master vanished.

But now... she seems to be able to understand her master's good intentions a little better.

It was just a mother seeking refuge for her child before she died.

……

After leaving the cemetery, Mufier walked back somewhat absentmindedly.

Suddenly she stopped in her tracks, slightly taken aback.

How did I get here?

Looking at this home that she and Su Qi nominally shared, she suddenly realized that she had never actually lived there.

After hesitating for a moment, she went inside anyway.

She wanted to talk to Su Qi.

Of course, it's not about preventing or separating.

Instead, she wanted to tell Su Qi that even though they were no longer husband and wife, she would still provide him with protection as his senior sister, and that he had no need to go into seclusion.

However, when she found Su Qi, what she saw ignited a nameless anger within her.

"Young master, please don't abandon An Qing."

With tears streaming down her face, An Qing held Su Qi tightly in her arms.

Su Qi wanted to push her away, but seeing her crying so sadly, he couldn't bear it.

He placed his hand on the girl's back and gently patted her to comfort her.

"Don't worry, no one will bully you even when I'm not here. I will ask the sect leader to find an elder within the sect to teach you. From now on, you will no longer be anyone's maid, but a dignified cultivator."

His tone, as if he were making his final arrangements, frightened An Qing.

"No, I want to be your maid for life!"
