Peerless God Emperor

"Father, I missed you." Mu Jinyu looked at the middle-aged man and spoke in a coquettish tone. It was only in front of her father that she would act so obediently like a little girl.    

Qin Xuan also looked at the middle-aged man. He knew that the middle-aged man was Mu Wang. He immediately clasped his hands and said, "Qin Xuan greets Senior Mu Wang."    

"No need to be so polite." Mu Wang waved at Qin Xuan and said with a smile, "Go inside and have a talk."    

He originally thought that even if Mu Wang did not blame him, he would at least dislike him a little. After all, he was the one who caused this incident that was detrimental to the Mu palace, and if it weren't for him, Mu Jinyu would still be cultivating in the Asura Hell.    

However, not only did Mu Wang not show any dissatisfaction, he even treated him extremely well, like a friend.    

Soon after, everyone entered the hall. Mu Wang sat on the highest throne. He looked at Mu Jinyu and said, "You've worked hard recently. You look much skinnier than before. I believe you've suffered a lot."    

"I was originally going there to gain experience, so suffering some hardships is unavoidable. It's good enough for me to be able to come back alive." Mu Jinyu smiled as she replied. She suddenly realized that she had said something wrong and turned to look at Mu Wang, only to see that his expression had darkened.    

"As for the matter of the Lu King's palace, I will personally report it to the king in the future. This matter will not be forgiven." His biological daughter had almost been assassinated. It could be seen that the King Lu Palace did not even put him in their eyes. Naturally, he did not have to show mercy.    

Mu Jinyu nodded. Since her father had said so, he would definitely do it.    

A gentle smile appeared on his face as he said, "I heard from Jin Yu about some of the things you did in the Asura Hell. To be honest, I've lived for hundreds of years and have seen countless people, yet I haven't seen a lot of outstanding youths like you.    

"Senior, you flatter me." Qin Xuan replied embarrassedly. He was not used to being praised so directly by a saint.    

"I'm just speaking the truth, there's no need for you to be modest." Mu Wang suddenly looked at Qin Xuan seriously and asked tentatively: "Do you have any ideas to cultivate in my Mu palace? I can accept you as my foster son. In the Mu palace, your position is on par with Jin Yu, and you enjoy the best cultivation resources."    

As soon as Mu Wang finished speaking, the expressions of everyone present changed. Mu Jinyu also looked at Mu Wang in disbelief. She did not expect that he would say such words and actually want to take Qin Xuan as his adopted son.    

Only Wei Ding seemed to have guessed something. A profound look flashed through his cloudy eyes, but he didn't say anything. He simply stood to the side, watching silently.    

Qin Xuan looked at Mu Wang and a hint of seriousness appeared on his face. He cupped his fists and said: "Thank you for your good will, Senior Mu Wang. However, as a member of the Sky Profound Realm and with my sect, I do not want to join any other powers. Please forgive me."    

"I refused." The gazes of the experts from the Mu Clan stiffened once again. This junior was truly courageous, to be able to reject such an enticement without being tempted in the slightest. Indeed, he was no ordinary character.    

After hearing Qin Xuan's reply, Mu Wang's eyes focused for a moment. Then, a hint of a smile blossomed on his face as if he had clearly seen something. He said: "Since that's the case, then I'll follow little friend Qin's own thoughts."    

Seeing the change in Mu Wang's expression, Qin Xuan finally understood something. The words Mu Wang said earlier were probably a test of his character. If he hesitated for even a second, the Mu King's impression of him would decline and his attitude wouldn't be as friendly as before.    

Thinking about this, Qin Xuan could not help but shiver. It was indeed not easy to deal with important people. Every word and action were filled with mystery. If he was not careful, he might fall into the opponent's scheme.    

However, Qin Xuan also understood that Mu Wang was not scheming against him. He just wanted to know what his character was like. After all, he was close to Mu Jinyu, and she trusted him. As Mu Wang was his father, he naturally had to personally investigate this.    

"This king is deeply gratified that you are able to come personally to Qing Xuan to explain this matter. However, there may be some risks in this journey. Have you thought it through clearly? It is still too late for you to leave." Mu Wang asked Qin Xuan again.    

"If you had not thought it through, this junior would not have come to the Qing Xuan realm." Qin Xuan answered with a tone of certainty. There was no room for him to back off in this matter.    

"Good, you are truly worthy of being called the heroic young man who caused such a ruckus in the Asura Hell!" Mu Wang let out a cry of praise and then looked towards the person beside him. He ordered, "Pass down the order, tomorrow, my king will see the king."    

"Yes." That person bowed as he replied, before leaving the great hall.    

That night, Qin Xuan stayed at the Mu Palace. Mu Jinyu brought him around the palace to feel the prosperity and strength of the great power of the Qing Xuan Continent.    

The next morning, a group of figures departed from the Mu palace and headed for the capital in a grandiose manner.    

The Nine Heaven Immortal Country was vast and boundless, with the capital standing at the very center. It was an ancient city that had existed for countless years, yet no traces of time had been left behind. Currently, it was still extremely magnificent, like an immortal palace.    

"The capital is just ahead." Mu Jinyu pointed to the ancient city in front of them and introduced it to Qin Xuan.    

Qin Xuan looked at the magnificent building in front of him, but his face did not have much of a reaction. He had gone to many places with great power, and even though this country was spectacular, it was not enough to amaze him.    

When Mu Wang intentionally glanced at Qin Xuan and saw the calmness on Qin Xuan's face, a strange light flashed in the depths of his eyes. It seems that this child really does have a great background.    

Following that, the Mu palace and its men shot into the capital. They flew through the sky like meteors, heading straight for the imperial palace.    

Below, countless citizens raised their heads to look at the silhouettes flying past them. Their hearts trembled as shock flashed in their eyes. In the capital, other than the envoys the king had sent out, there were only four other princes left.    

These people had come from outside the capital, so it was obvious that they were not the envoys from the palace but the princes!    

But generally speaking, other than the king summoning them, perhaps something especially important had happened. The prince would not come to the capital so easily. A hint of curiosity flashed in the eyes of many people when they thought of this.    

After some time, the Mu palace and the others stopped in front of the entrance. Even if the prince himself were to come, he would have to report to the king first and only with the king's permission can they enter the palace.
