Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort novel Chapter 850

Chapter 850: Chapter 285: Bowing to Seek the Dao, Murderous Intent Revealed (Part 1)

The newcomer, dressed in simple clothes, had sharp and handsome features, and his eyes were particularly bright, revealing steadiness and determination. He hugged a Giant Ruler Heavy Sword with both hands, came before Mu Qingge, and the moment he spoke, his words left her utterly baffled.

"I took the blame for you."

Mu Qingge raised her eyebrows, still trying to recall who this person in front of her was.

However, at this moment, beside her, Yao Xinghai uttered a low, surprised murmur. "Wei Molin!"

Wei Molin?

This person is Wei Molin?!

Mu Qingge’s eyes suddenly widened, incredulously looking at the man appearing before her. She searched her mind for the image of Wei Molin, comparing it with the person before her.

Indeed, when she encountered Wei Molin at the Divine Demon Ancient Battlefield, he had been mentally confused for years, utterly crazy, extremely manic, and unkempt, and she really hadn’t examined his features closely.

The image of the person in front gradually overlapped with the impression in her mind.

She finally found that somewhat familiar feeling from before.

This person is indeed Wei Molin.

"It seems he’s recovered pretty well. But... what does he mean by what he said?" Mu Qingge was about to ask when Wei Molin spoke again.

"However, you saved me, so I’ll take the blame for this." After saying this, Wei Molin coolly turned around and walked away with large strides.

Mu Qingge furrowed her brows, her mouth twitching fiercely, watching Wei Molin’s departing figure and internally complaining, ’Indeed, he’s still not completely well! His words are incoherent, leaving more confusion.’

She couldn’t figure out what blame she was to have Wei Molin take.

"You saved him?" Yao Xinghai snapped out of his shock and asked in astonishment.

He didn’t know that Mu Qingge actually had such a connection with Wei Molin.

The top five on the Green Talent List seemed all somewhat linked due to Mu Qingge’s presence. Previously, they had been on the list for years, knowing each other only abstractly.

Even when there was occasionally an opportunity to meet, they mostly just passed by or exchanged simple greetings.

Mu Qingge’s appearance was like a bridge, tying them all to her side!

What kind of ability is this?

Yao Xinghai was shocked in his heart and couldn’t help but sigh, ’If one day it is said that she is closely related to Xi Goddess as well, I wouldn’t be surprised.’

"Happened to come across and saved him in passing," Mu Qingge withdrew her gaze, answering lightly.

This answer clearly indicated she didn’t want to elaborate.

Yao Xinghai was someone who understood human nature, and naturally, wouldn’t seek an uncomfortable conversation.

Mu Qingge wanted to find Wei Molin to ask clearly, but now was obviously not the right time. Her gaze swept over the surroundings of Ruishui; there were noble offspring, as well as Floating Guest Loose Cultivators.

They each found their positions, waiting for the beginning of Ruishui’s questioning to unfold.

Finally, Mu Qingge’s gaze landed on Ruishui.

’Ruishui... so this is Ruishui...’ Mu Qingge slightly tilted her chin, an expression of shock emerging in her clear eyes. She once thought Ruishui was just a river wedged between the Yin Sea and Earth Crack. But now seeing it herself, it was evidently not so.

Ruishui comes from the sky, rootless and boundless.

No beginning, no end. This river emerges abruptly and vanishes suddenly, leaving behind only a stream resembling a silver waterfall in this fissure.

Unconsciously, Mu Qingge stepped forward two paces, getting closer to that Ruishui. She felt curious, curious whether Ruishui was indeed a river, and what Daoist essence could be hidden in this silver water.

"Qingge, you’ve indeed come!" A familiar voice drew Mu Qingge’s thoughts together, as she turned to look at the newcomer.

She raised an eyebrow; Ji Yaohua and Ying Ze came side by side.

Yao Xinghai also turned to look, seeing the two and suddenly laughed, "It seems the top five of the Green Talent List have gathered today at the Ruishui riverbank."

His voice had barely landed before people around had noticed them.

Some discussions were buzzing into their ears.

"Whoa! The top five from the Green Talent List have all arrived!"

"Young Master Yao, Young Master Ji, Young Master Ying, and the previous top Wei Molin, Wei Dominus. Then the remaining one, the red-robed city lord, must be the current top Mu City Lord, right?"

"This time, we’re lucky enough to see the magnificent five of the Green Talent List all at once!"

"Ruishui’s questioning occurs once every hundred years. These prodigies surely wouldn’t miss it."

"Hehe, I wonder if something interesting will happen with these five gathered together!"

"What interesting thing?"

"Dummy! These five are ranked on the Green Talent List so prominently, naturally, they’d be compared by others, and each likely isn’t convinced by the others. At normal times, when scattered across continents, very hard to meet, they can only compete in secret. Now, gathered here, they surely won’t resist a few clashes to fight over rankings on the Green Talent List!"

"Hmm, that seems sensible!"

"I have a feeling, before Ruishui’s questioning even starts, maybe they’ll engage in a few rounds. We might feast our eyes!"

"In this way, the dull waiting wouldn’t be so tedious. Alas, we wonder amongst them who’s weaker or stronger."

"Let’s just wait quietly for a good show!"

These discussions, even if deliberately hushed, still reached the ears of the four. As for Wei Molin, walking quietly alone in the distance, as silent as a statue—it was unclear whether he had heard them or not.

Something must have happened causing the Divine Hall to think that Xi Qianxue’s object of affection was Wei Molili. If that were true, Wei Molili’s words about taking the fall for her were indeed accurate.

But with Xi Qianxue’s abilities, how could she let others perceive she had feelings? Besides, hadn’t she said she would sever such ties upon returning?

Mu Qingge couldn’t quite comprehend, but it seemed this issue couldn’t be clearly explained.

She looked at Wei Molili and finally said, "Between me and Xi Qianxue, it’s not as you or the Divine Hall think."

"No need to explain to me. I already said, you saved me, so I’ll bear this matter for you." Wei Molili clearly didn’t listen to Mu Qingge’s words.

Outside, people were anxiously discussing—

"Why aren’t they fighting yet?"

"Exactly, what’s there to talk about while standing there, just start fighting already."

"Could it be they want to debate the outcome verbally?"

"Oh my, they’re dragging it out, I’m getting anxious."

Suddenly, on the Ruishui River, a silver light erupted, covering this area.

Wei Molili’s eyes gleamed with a brilliant light, breaking the barrier Mu Qingge had set with a punch, and looked towards the Ruishui. Ji Yaohua and the others quickly came over, standing together with them.

At this moment, everyone was captivated by the light from the Ruishui.

"Kneel at the Ruishui Riverbank to seek the Dao."

An old voice descended from the sky.

Mu Qingge saw that everyone around her, including the four prodigies beside her, were now kneeling on one knee.

"Qingge, kneel. Only by kowtowing can you enter the Ruishui!" Ji Yaohua quietly reminded her.

Mu Qingge knelt as instructed, still filled with doubt.

At that moment, Gu Ya’s voice reached her ears, ’Little Lord, there are often barriers in the Ruishui, people of the Demon Clan cannot enter, so we cannot accompany you in. Be careful inside, we will wait for you outside.’

Mu Qingge nodded lightly.

She was no helpless vine needing constant protection.

She kowtowed with the group, and then saw that a vortex passage appeared in the silver waterfall of the Ruishui. Everyone rejoiced and leapt into the vortex.

Mu Qingge followed, and in an instant, it felt like she was being drawn into another space.

However, just as she landed, she suddenly felt a wave of killing intent sweeping in from all directions...
