Grandparent and Child Night Talk

"Existed for thousands of years? Then isn't he an old demon that hasn't died in a thousand years?" Mu Ge asked in shock, as her brain really could not relate the handsome fallen fairy to an old demon.

"Why are you so shocked?" Mu Xiong wanted to knock Mu Ge's head again, but she avoided it with agility.

"But you can't cultivate, so it's normal if you don't really know much about this." Mu Xiong said yearningly, "You know that the cultivation in Lin Chuan Continent is split according to seven colors. Red, orange, rellow, green, light green, blue and purple, with red level being the lowest and purple being the highest. Normally, one can easily enter the red level if they're not useless. Those who are slightly more talented can continue advancing to higher levels, but the weakest ones could only stay in the red level."

Mu Xiong talked, but he secretly observed his grandson's behavior. When he saw that his grandson did not look demoralised, he continued, "The closer you are to purple, the harder it is for you to cultivate. From what I know, the number of superior ones in the purple level can be counted with two hands in the Kingdom of Qin, Kingdom of Tu, Kingdom of Yu and Kingdom of Ba combined. Only one member of the royal family in the Kingdom of Qin managed to enter the preliminary stage of the purple level. However, once a person entered the purple level, their lifespan would be multiplied countless times. A normal person could only live up to 123 years, but the purple level experts can live up to 890 years. If they're at the peak of the purple level, they definitely can live up to a thousand years old, and their appearance would remain forever young."

"That means the Sheng King is definitely an expert in the peak of purple level, right?" Mu Ge stroked her chin as if in deep thought.

Thinking about the first time they met, the shock that fellow gave her did belong to an expert. Her grandfather was in the blue level and was unfortunately no match for either one of his two subordinates.

At the same time, Mu Ge instinctively understood what a person in the blue level with military troops meant for the Kingdom of Qin's royal family.

On the surface, the Mu Residence seemed to be peaceful, but there were countless secret happenings in the dark.

Mu Xiong nodded. "Sheng King is an expert in the purple level without a doubt. I even suspect that the elder has long surpassed the peak of purple level. One needs to know that the storm dragon leopard with six wings doesn't even belong to this land. We only know it because of the elderly Sheng King."

Mu Xiong's usage of 'elderly' and 'elder' made Mu Ge's lips twitch.

"Grandpa, why can't I cultivate?" Mu Ge changed the topic of the conversation and brought it back to herself.

Mu Xiong was dazed and his gaze darkened, but he still forced a smile and comforted Mu Ge. "It's okay. Even if Ge'er can't cultivate, you're still the Mu Residence's little lord and the future Master Yong Ning."

"Grandpa." Mu Ge knitted her brows. She did not want to hear that. She wanted to find out the reason why she could not cultivate.

However, Mu Xiong did not want to continue talking about it. He patted her shoulders and said, "Ge'er, some things aren't meant to be. Just take it as a punishment God gave to Grandpa for killing people all my life."

Mu Ge was speechless.

"Oh, right. I've already captured that He family's bastard. If he didn't spout nonsense in front of you, you wouldn't have taken this risk. After you go back, you can unleash your anger all you want, but you can't kill him," said Mu Xiong suddenly.

Mu Ge was dazed and did not continue.

Without any explanation, she knew that this person with the last name 'He' was the person that instigated her to go to the barren land. Originally, she planned to take revenge against him herself, but she did not expect Mu Xiong to beat her to it.

"Ge'er, 'I'm very upset about this, but your decision today made me proud. You've grown up after experiencing this incident. Alright then, go back earlier and rest. After you return, stop seeing Prince Rui. Our Mu family won't be involved in the royal family's struggles." After he finished his sentence, Mu Xiong walked out of the tent and left Mu Ge alone.

Once Mu Xiong left, Mu Qingge's soul appeared.

Actually, she was beside Mu Ge all along, but like what she said, nobody else could see her other than Mu Ge.

"You seem part of the Mu family even more than me," said Mu Qingge in a low voice, as she stared at the direction Mu Xiong left in. She could not help but admit that she was shocked when Mu Ge accepted the punishment wholeheartedly and even took the initiative to increase her punishment and consoled the spirit.

When she saw the satisfaction in her Grandpa's eyes, she then understood how ridiculous her previous actions were. The Mu family's descendant was definitely not an arrogant and domineering rich man's son, but a noble and brave person, even if she could not cultivate and was destined to be a good-for-nothing.

"Old Master doesn't know your true identity?" Mu Ge asked with her brows raised and did not answer Mu Qingge's words.

Mu Qingge kept quiet for a while before saying, "Grandpa thinks that I've been the Mu family's boy descendant all along."
