If Blue Bat Were Here, That Would Be Fine

Chapter 43: If Blue Bat Were Here, That Would Be Fine...

Mu Nujiao tilted her head. "That's such a strange question..."

"If Brother Ningwei were willing to protect me for the rest of his life, I'd be very happy. As for protecting Brother Ningwei, if you needed me, I would definitely give it my all."

"But I would never desperately think about how to protect Brother Ningwei."

"Hehe, I would only desperately think about how to ask Brother Ningwei for kisses!"

"Mmm, in the future, perhaps I wouldn't just be asking for kisses..."

Mu Ningwei looked at Mu Nujiao's bashful, love-struck expression, closed his eyes, and pressed his lips to hers.

After being teased so directly, Mu Ningwei once again wanted Mu Nujiao, wanted to admire the marvelous sight of her fully blossoming.

He suppressed the heat in his body.

Since Mu Nujiao was not ready yet, he was willing to keep waiting and give her the most romantic memory possible.

Unfortunately, Blue Bat was not by his side right now.

More than ten days later.

The power of faith provided by Hangcheng weakened and gradually leveled off.

Mu Ningwei decided to take Mu Nujiao and Fei Yi away.

Whenever they needed the power of faith later, they could return to Hangcheng to conduct blessing parades, donate some money, and do good deeds. With all sides helping to promote them, they could gather a great deal of faith again.

Upon receiving the news, Leng Qing decided to return with them.

Hangcheng's upper ranks and the Mu Clan elders had already conducted an initial exploration of the White Demon Eagle tribe's territory. Hearing that Mu Ningwei was leaving, they hurried over to see him off.

"Ningwei, once you return to the clan, make sure to see the clan head and have him reward you. This time, our Mu Clan's development of the White Demon Eagle tribe secured a full forty percent of the profits, all thanks to you."

Mu Xun was Mu Yu Nan's father. He thought highly of Mu Ningwei and already regarded him as the Mu Clan's future pillar. Raising his hand, he stuffed a treasure into Mu Ningwei's hands.

"I had someone trade a portion of our resources for this Super-tier Shield Magic Tool."

"I know ordinary magic tools are no longer of any help to you. Super-tier magic tools are hard to come by, and this is all the connections I have. Just don't dislike it, Ningwei!"

"Don't take such risks again in the future. I only hope this magic tool can be of some help to you."

"Here, Nu Jiao, you have a share too. I heard about your performance at the Hangcheng academy. You brought glory to our Mu Clan!"

Mu Ningwei and Mu Nujiao smiled as they accepted the gifts from their elder.

Tang Zhong presented a batch of resources along with a letter, saying with a cheerful smile, "Mu Ningwei, on behalf of Hangcheng, I thank you! This is the Night Sky Crystal you needed, as well as one of Hangcheng's votes!"

"I heard you already have two votes, and Dean Xiao got you another one. Counting ours, your status as a National Prefecture Team Member is already guaranteed."

"Haha, I'll be waiting for you to bring glory to the Divine Land!"

Tang Yue also handed over a pair of black scales and bent slightly as she spoke. "Mu Ningwei, thank you for saving the big fellow. These are scales shed by the big fellow. They are excellent materials for forging Armor Magic Tools, and you can use them to make two pieces of Armor Magic Tool."

Finally, Luo Mian handed over a letter, while Zhu Meng gave him a letter of recommendation from the Imperial Palace Court.

Luo Mian's letter naturally contained Mu Nujiao's vote.

The Imperial Palace Court's letter of recommendation could be used to apply to join any domestic faction. It was essentially a golden key.

Mu Ningwei put away all the treasures, bid them farewell, and left.

This trip to Hangcheng had yielded a bountiful harvest!

His faith, reputation, strength, and resources had all greatly improved.

Once he returned to Magic City and peacefully digested his gains, his strength could rise once more.

He had also helped the Mu Clan acquire resources, increasing the strength and influence of the faction behind him.

Mu Ningwei was very satisfied with this outcome.

As they watched Mu Ningwei and the others leave,

Zhu Meng could not help sighing. "Who could have imagined that a young man of merely twenty-one could subdue a vampire monarch and even kill a great demon like the Silver Sky Lord?"

Tang Zhong sighed. "Exactly, who could have imagined it! I'm truly envious of the Mu Clan. Even setting aside Mu Ningwei, that peerless freak who defies all reason, Mu Nujiao is remarkable too. Her future achievements will not be inferior to Leng Qing's."

As he spoke, Tang Zhong shot Tang Yue a disappointed look.

Tang Yue pursed her lips, her heart full of grumbling thoughts.

She had already been cultivating diligently.

But could those people be compared to ordinary people? They were monsters!

Especially Mu Ningwei. He killed the Silver Sky Lord at twenty-one. Would you even believe it if word got out?

Uncle, you want me to compare myself to Mu Ningwei?

Why don't you compare yourself to him and kill a Silver Sky Lord for me to see?!

Mu Xun was immensely pleased. His aged face seemed years younger as he proudly declared, "Ningwei is the genius of our Mu Clan! Nu Jiao and Nuxin have also done very well. They are the Mu Clan's twin beauties!"

Tang Zhong was utterly envious.

"That Mu Nuxin from your clan is also incredible. Despite being unable to awaken magic, she resolutely entered the business world. The investment for our recent development project was entirely handled by her."

"The Mu Clan's twin beauties—one challenged the Hangcheng academy and defeated every genius of her generation, becoming a High-level Mage at just nineteen."

"The other is a rising star in the business world. This investment alone will involve at least fifty billion in turnover. Even if she earns only five percent, that is still a fortune even we would envy."

"And then there's the invincible Mu Ningwei."

"Allow me to congratulate Brother Mu Xun in advance, and congratulate the Mu Clan in advance on rising to become a great clan!"

Zhu Meng laughed. "Congratulations to the Mu Clan on becoming the fifth great clan in the country!"

Mu Xun's face glowed red as he grinned from ear to ear. He modestly said, "Not at all, not at all. It still depends on how far they can go. Before then, old bones like ours still have much work ahead of us, hahahaha."

Luo Mian's eyes flickered as he flattered him. "Brother Mu Xun, I wonder if you have time? I have a business partnership I would like to discuss with you."

Tang Zhong immediately said, "I have a partnership proposal too!"

Watching Mu Xun happily discuss matters with Hangcheng's upper ranks, Zhu Meng was full of emotion.

During this trip to Hangcheng, he, Luo Mian, Tang Zhong, the Totem Black Snake, and all the various forces had complicated entanglements and their own objectives.

Later, the White Demon Eagle tribe had even invaded, bringing a tremendous crisis capable of destroying Hangcheng.

Yet Leng Qing had invited Mu Ningwei here!

From the moment Mu Ningwei arrived in Hangcheng, the struggles between every person and every event had already lost their meaning.

Whether willingly or unwillingly, they all had to follow Mu Ningwei's will and turn Hangcheng's outcome into what he wanted!

That invincible, terrifying strength;

That overbearing wisdom, along with the means to maintain good relations with everyone and achieve mutual benefit through cooperation.

Zhu Meng was utterly amazed!

"If our Imperial Palace Court had Mu Ningwei, I'd probably wake up laughing even in my dreams!"

Only later did Zhu Meng learn that the Totem Black Snake was the ancestor of the Poison Element and was not afraid of the toxins in diseased blood.

Mu Ningwei fed the confiscated fake hemostatic agents to the Totem Black Snake, allowing it to end its molting period early and regain Supreme Monarch-level strength.

Yet even at the Supreme Monarch level, the Totem Black Snake never got a chance to act. It had completely become an insurance policy.

But it was precisely this insurance policy that made Zhu Meng almost worship Mu Ningwei's wisdom.

He believed in the theory of hidden dangers and considered everything from the worst possible angle. This backup plan filled him with a sense of security.

It was hard to believe this was the method of a young man!

That nest of women at the Parthenon Temple truly trained people well.

Mu Ningwei, who had emerged from there, was simply terrifying!

"Leng Qing seems to have a very good relationship with Mu Ningwei."

"I remember she is a junior highly regarded by Chief Pang Lai. It seems her grandfather was friends with Chief Pang Lai. Once I return, I must tell Chief Pang Lai about this."

"The Azure Hunter Institute only requires one to register an identity, so it does not count as a true faction. We absolutely cannot let the Imperial Palace Court miss such outstanding talent."
