Chapter 391: Confirming the Plot, Bad News!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
That’s right, Mu Xuan asked his younger brother to ask about the small mountain village where Han Li came from!
Mu Xuan couldn’t remember all of Han Li’s plots. Fortunately, he still had some impression of the plots before stepping into the cultivation world. For example, Han Li came from Jing Province, a small town belonging to the Seven Mysteries Sect.
With many clues, in the past month, Mu Xuan finally confirmed Han Li’s hometown—Five Mile Groove Village in Green Bull Town!
“Xiaoshan, you did very well!” Mu Xuan praised him before letting Xiaoshan leave. The reason why he asked about Han Li’s hometown was to confirm the movements of the protagonist, Han Li!
Those who had read the mortal cultivation legends knew that in order to survive, Han Li had no choice but to join the Seven Mysteries Sect. In fact, it was equivalent to selling himself to the Seven Mysteries Sect.
Later on, when Han Li embarked on the path of cultivation and left the Seven Mysteries Sect, he returned to his hometown once. It was on that day that he met his married sister…
Through Han Li’s sister’s situation, Mu Xuan could naturally reverse the development of the plot.
The next day, Mu Xuan used the excuse of going out and rented a horse to rush to the five-mile ditch of Green Bull Town 50 kilometers away to ask about the Han family.
The wine seller looked at the travel-worn Mu Xuan and chuckled. “Little
Brother, are you also here to attend the marriage of the Han family’s sister?!”
A trace of surprise appeared on Mu Xuan’s face. After asking further, he confirmed that it was Han Li’s sister who was getting married. “In other words, Han Li will go to the Great South Small Meeting next and join Yellow Maple Valley…”
After confirming the plot node, Mu Xuan knew that it was impossible for him to obtain the Heaven Palm Bottle, so he wasn’t too disappointed. He quietly returned to the Marquis of Bright Yang’s Estate and prepared to hide until the ninth level of the Primordial Chaos Force before making plans.
Just as Mu Xuan left, the two young men also stepped into the village. Han Li looked at his married sister and reminisced about the past. The corners of his eyes gradually moistened…
In the blink of an eye, half a year passed. Mu Xuan experienced the first snow since he transmigrated and finally broke through to the third level of the Primordial Chaos Force.
On this day, Eldest Miss Fang Jingyi returned again and specially tested the spirit root of everyone in the Fang family. The result disappointed her. Not only did Mu Xuan not have a spirit root, but everyone in the Fang family also didn’t have a spirit root.
Fang Jingyi was very helpless. Her plan to help each other was stillborn. She couldn’t even be bothered to see Mu Xuan. In the end, she left unhappily.
The life in the Duke Mansion was boring, but in Mu Xuan’s opinion, it was much more interesting than in the outside world. He drank wine every day, flirted with the maidservants, and taught the servants. Wasn’t it fun?!
“Steward Yan, this hotpot you invented is delicious!” In the servants’ canteen, Mu Xuan and a few maids chatted and laughed as they surrounded the stove and ate the hotpot happily.
Among the maidservants, Fang Jingyi’s maid, Cai, had a worried frown on her face. It was because Eldest Miss Fang Jingyi had not returned for a long time. Her exclusive maidservant was about to grow mold!
After all, this was an ancient feudal society. Once a woman exceeded 18 years old, it was very difficult for her to get married again. However, Cai was already 19 years old.
Mu Xuan chuckled and said, “Cai, why don’t I apply to the Marquis to marry you? Are you willing?”
Cai’s eyes lit up when she heard this. Although Mu Xuan was only 17 years old now, he was already handsome, dignified, and had an extraordinary aura.
Coupled with his identity as the deputy manager… Instantly, Cai was tempted.
Her face flushed red, and she welcomed the teasing of the other maidservants.
Mu Xuan smiled. If he married Cai, wouldn’t his relationship with Fang Jingyi be even closer? It wouldn’t be too much to give him a few cultivation techniques in the future, right?!
Moreover, Mu Xuan couldn’t stay single forever in the Marquis of Mingyang’s Estate, right? Wasn’t Cai, who was already lonely and worried about marriage, the most suitable marriage partner?!
The next day, Mu Xuan found Marquis Mingyang and made his request. Then, he was directly rejected. That was his daughter’s personal maid. Without his daughter’s consent, could he make the decision?!
Mu Xuan wasn’t discouraged. According to his guess, Fang Jingyi would probably return to the residence for a long time.
Mu Xuan’s guess was confirmed. In the next year, Eldest Miss Fang Jingyi didn’t return to the Marquis of Mingyang’s Estate even once, disappointing everyone in the Marquis of Mingyang’s Estate. It was said that the Old Marquis of Mingyang was so angry that he fell sick.
In this year, Mu Xuan’s Primordial Chaos Force had reached the early stage of the fifth level. The power of the Primordial Chaos Force began to be displayed, and its combat strength was extraordinary.
As for Cai, he looked forward to it day and night. She hoped that Eldest Miss could return to the residence and get Eldest Miss’s permission to marry Mu
Xuan…
Unfortunately, the world was unpredictable. In this year, the Marquis of Mingyang’s Estate waited for bad news. Eldest Miss Fang Jingyi had died without a corpse!
The old Marquis of Mingyang, who was already in poor health, couldn’t take the blow and fell ill. In the winter snow at the end of the year, he passed away.
When Mu Xuan heard the news, he could only sigh at how unpredictable the world was. He speculated that Fang Jingyi should have entered the Blood Forbidden Land and died there.
In the beginning of spring another year, the son of the old marquis attacked Marquis Mingyang and became the new Marquis Mingyang. Then, Mu Xuan felt that the entire Marquis Mingyang had become a little bleak. Even half of Mu Xuan’s horses had been sold.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Mu Xuan contributed a hundred taels of silver and proposed to go to Cai to be his wife. He finally obtained permission!
It was the fourth year since he came to the mortal cultivation world. Mu Xuan was 19 years old and married Cai, who was 22 years old. At this point, Mu Xuan successfully broke free from the title of single dog.
In July of this year, Mu Xuan reached the peak of the fifth level of the
Primordial Chaos Force and broke through several times without success. According to the division of the martial world of Yue Country, Mu Xuan could be considered a third-rate expert in the martial world.
“In at most half a year, I can break through to the sixth level,” Mu Xuan muttered to himself. He was quite speechless about his aptitude.
Mu Xuan had already planned to leave the Marquis of Mingyang’s Estate after breaking through to the sixth level and find people from the martial world to extract the bones of others!
At this moment, Mu Xuan had a sudden impulse and an ominous feeling enveloped his heart.
Without a word, Mu Xuan quickly left the Marquis of Bright Sun’s Estate with
cai…
“Husband, could it be that something happened when you suddenly stayed in an inn?” Cai asked curiously.
Mu Xuan shook his head and said, “I have a feeling that there seems to be a change in the Duke Mansion. Just in case, let’s leave first!”
Cai sighed and said. “Ever since Eldest Miss and the Old Marauis Dassed awav.
the Marquis’ Manor has been getting worse day by day…”
Cai still vaguely remembered how lively the Marquis’ Manor was when the Eldest Miss was still around. Unlike now, all the maids and servants in the Manor had either been dismissed or sold. Only a few people were left.
Mu Xuan shook his head and stood by the window. He looked at the distant Marquisdom of Bright Sun and suddenly said, “Cai, stay here. I have to return to the Marquisdom again!”
Cai was silent for a long time. Then, he said, “Husband, you must be careful!”
Mu Xuan smiled. “Don’t worry, you know your husband’s strength!”
When he returned to the Marquis of Bright Sun Manor again, Mu Xuan didn’t enter. Instead, he hid outside the back door of the Marquis’s Manor. Although he was immortal, he wouldn’t be rash.
Late at night, Mu Xuan saw a group of black-clothed people infiltrating the Marquis of Bright Sun Manor.. They were actually heading straight for the Jingyi Pavilion where Eldest Miss Fang Jingyi was!
