Chapter 2510 - 2510 I, Qiao Mu, Have Returned!
2510 I, Qiao Mu, Have Returned!
Hu Dequan, who was accompanying the crown prince, had alarm bells ringing in his mind when he saw His Highness the Crown Prince’s expression. He cursed inwardly.
He had seen this expression on the emperor’s face much too often.
It couldn’t be denied that they were indeed father and son. Their minute actions and expressions when angry were practically identical.
It was naturally not possible to kill everyone from the Lunisolar Shrine.
The crown prince could punish and even kill a portion of them. This was fine. After all, they had truly slandered Her Highness the Crown Prince Consort. Wasn’t the crown prince allowed to get angry?
However, if they killed everyone, then they would in turn become the unreasonable ones.
After all, the Lunisolar Shrine had come to Dragon Flame City in the name of missionary work and to proselytize non-believers.
They had naturally signed a pact with the emperor beforehand and also made some concessions so that the common people of the Divine Province would also benefit.
If the Holy Daughter’s entourage all died upon entering the capital…
The Lunisolar Shrine could use this incident as the basis for attack. The shrine had widespread influence across the Three Provinces. Even though the Divine Province did not fear them, it would still be a headache if they really started fighting.
Eunuch Hu scratched his cheeks in agitation. He cupped his fists and furtively bowed toward Qiao Mu, entreating for her to dissuade His Highness the Crown Prince.
Qiao Mu swept him a look and then tugged at Mo Lian’s hand. “How about letting me handle this?”
“Fine!” Crown Prince Mo was naturally all for it. As long as it could improve Qiaoqiao’s mood, he could do anything.
Qiao Mu took several steps forward then looked down aloofly at the Holy Daughter who was prostrating on the ground.
The Holy Daughter’s hair was undone, and her face had turned red from chagrin. She no longer sported the image of a celestial from a snow mountain.
The her at present was crushed like a beggar on the street. She lay on her stomach before the lofty girl in front of her. She was so resentful that her eyes were bloodshot, and her nails dug into her palms.
“Heavenly Fate told you to do this? Doesn’t look like it. Heavenly Fate’s modus operandi shouldn’t be this rash.”
After multiple interactions with Heavenly Fate, the impression she got was that they strategized before taking action. It was rare for them to do something so brainless.
“You did this of your own accord, right?”
“You think you can use me as a stepping stone, yet you didn’t expect for yourself to be the true stepping stone instead.” Qiao Mu gazed at her coldly. “If there is the opportunity, tell you master. I, Qiao Mu, have returned!”
The Holy Daughter couldn’t breathe, and her entire body shook uncontrollably.
Everybody felt that the crown prince consort’s airy statement seemed to linger, resounding through their minds…
She spoke calmly, “There is no one in this world who can stop me from advancing forward!”
“You cannot, he cannot! The heavens cannot! The deities also cannot!”
The little stoic maintained an expressionless face. Her chilly voice echoed through the entire Changle Boulevard and hit people straight in the heart.
“I once told myself that whether or not the Divine Province is the place I want to go back to, I will eventually return!
“This day has arrived quickly!
“I know that there are many amongst you who are scared, horrified, and trembling, but today, what I want to tell you is!
“It’s useless!
“No matter how difficult and precarious the future ahead, no matter how long or meandering it is, what I, Qiao Mu, want to do… I will definitely accomplish in the end!
“I have returned!
“All you wildly arrogant bastards who have attempted to stop me will pay a price in blood for everything you’ve ever done!”
