General Mu Return Victorious

A week passed. After eliminating almost all of the hidden layers of the devil cultivator around the Imperial City, General Mu returned to the Mu Mansion with his brothers.

Madam Mu happily told him the news of Mu Tian and Xunr being together.

After hearing the news General Mu also became happy. He was always worried that Mu Tian would be depressed after his meridians were broken.

But now, he felt relived. He even asked Madam Mu weather they decided the date of marriage or not to which Madam Mu replied they are waiting for him to return.

Then she and General Mu started to talk about the last weeks events.

As the news of Mu Mansion eliminating the devil cultivator spread more and more, the reputation of Mu family rose.

In the streets, whenever people talk about the Mu Mansion their eyes will be filled with admiration.

Mu Mansion was originally famous to begin with and this incident pushed them to the peak of their glory.

Many youth looked at Mu Mansion with a hint of reverence and anticipation, wishing to join them.

While the Mu Mansion is basking in the glory, the situation in the Imperial Palace is very tense.

Emperor Qin sat on his throne with a gloomy expression. The whole hall is almost empty.

Only a middle aged man knelt in front of him and reported the news of glorious return of General Mu while trembling.

"Good, good, good. Mu Yan, you really surprised me this time. I didn't expect you to even find out the hidden layers of devil cultivators."

Emperor Qin said with a face as black as coal.

Now that the reputation of Mu Mansion is rising among the commoners, if he doesn't give the a generous reward then it will definitely cause dissatisfaction.

When he thought about this and thought of disdainful expression of Empress Qin ,he felt like he had been slapped on the face.

"Get lost." Emperor Qin yelled at the man kneeling in front of him.

The man felt like he had just walked out from the gates of hell. He hurriedly kowtowed and thanked emperor to spare his life and left.

Other than Emperor Qin, the most unhappy about this event is General Kong Xuan from the Kong family.

Since both Mu and Kong family are family of generals, they has been competing in both white and dark.

They were also most happy when Mu Tian was crippled by the Crown Prince.

In a huge hall inside the Kong family, General Kong was sitting with his brothers. At this moment, all of them wore a dark and gloomy expression.

They had been investigating how Mu Mansion got the information of devil cultivator. But even after a week of investigation they found nothing.

Now that General Mu has returned with glory, their Kong family will definitely be affected by it.

Especially, since half a year later will be recruitment of new soldier.

Contrary to the gloomy atmosphere in the Imperial Palace and Kong family, Mu Mansion is filled with excitement.

When members of the family heard the glorious return of General Mu and his brother they excitedly come over and ask them to tell them their experience.

When Mu Tian heard the news, he had just got up and Xunr is still sleeping.

Now that he didn't need to painstakingly cultivate with Xunr around him. A season of dual cultivation with her is better than a night of cultivation.

Thus Mu Tian has been indulged in pleasure. Every night he will bully Xunr to the point of exhaustion. As a result, she will sleep till late morning.

Every morning ,he will lay beside Xunr and wait for her to wake up while looking at her innocent face which is filled with radiant smile. 

She will complain to him for being too cruel to her as soon as she woke up.And to compensate her, Mu Tian will help her clean her body, carry her to the dining and feed her by his hands.

Mu Tian felt his that his life is very blissful now.

His cultivation has also risen another level reaching the sixth layer of Foundation Establishment Stage.

Xunr is also not idle either. With the assistance of his yang energy, her cultivation has risen another three level. Reaching the fourth level of Qi Refining Stage.

After Mu Tian heard the news of his father's return, he looked at the sleeping figure on the bed.

An unconscious smile appeared on his face. He went to the bed and bent down to kiss her lips.

Xunr was woken by the feeling of suffocation. She looked at Mu Tian's face with confusion.

Normally, he would let her sleep until she woke up naturally. So she looked at Mu Tian as if asking for the reason.

"Mmmm....my lady. It's time to wake up. It's already passed morning." Mu Tian said as his hand went for her waist.

"It's all your fault."Xunr replied with a pout but her hand still reached his neck and wrapped on it. Waiting for Mu Tian to carry her.

"You didn't say it at night. You are even asking for more." Mu Tian said with a teasing smile as he carried her to the washroom.

"You...How can you say that?"Xunr was so shy that she buried her face in his chest.

After taking a bath and putting on clean robes, Mu Tian told her the news of the return of his father and uncles. 

"What? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"Xunr asked with surprise and shock.

"Don't worry. They are probably very busy now. We will go and see them after breakfast." Mu Tian replied with a smile as he brought her downstairs.

When Mu Tian arrived at the main hall of the Mu Mansion with Xunr, most of the people had left.

Only General Mu and Madam Mu is sitting in the middle of the hall with his two sworn brother.

When they saw Mu Tian and Xunr at the entrance of the hall, a kind smile appeared on their face.

Madam Mu stood up from her sit and went to bring Xunr and let her sit beside her. She looked at Xunr with a doting expression.

Mu Tian also followed behind her and sat in a nearby sit.

"Congratulations father and uncles for successfully eliminating the devil cultivator." Mu Tian said with a smile as gave them a ninety degree bow.

"Hmmm...How are you doing recently?" General Mu nodded with a smile and then asked with a trace of worry in his eyes.

"Mmmm...Don't worry father. Tian'er is doing well." Mu Tian replied.

Seeing him so well behaved, elder's in the hall all felt pity and heartbroken.

Especially Elder Guan and Elder Jin, both of them are unmarried and has always treated him as their own son. Now, seeing his meridians been broken and unable to cultivate, they also felt sad.

As they were talking Madam Mu suddenly called Elder Guan and Elder Jin and grabbed Xunr's small hand and rise it for them to show off, proudly saying that her son has found a good daughter-in-law for the Mu family.

"Brother Guan Bother Jin, look, my son has already found a sensible wife for him, isn't my son good?"

Seeing his mother's proud boasting, Mu Tian felt unreal. And as if that was not enough, General Mu suddenly starting laughing.

"Ha...Ha...Ha...Tian'er you are really my good son."

"Xunr...come here. Since you are already the daughter-in-law of my Mu family, father should give you a gift."

Looking at his hysterical laugher, Madam Mu glared at him fiercely and retorted, "Old Man do you want to scare away my daughter-in-law?"

General Mu was instantly terrified stopped his laugher. Being a General of the Qin Empire, the thing he afraid the most isn't the battlefield where life and death are uncertain nor the scheming emperor but his wife.

Because every time he upsets her, she will not let him touch her for a whole month sometimes even six months.

As a person who love his wife dearly, it is definitely very tormenting to him. Thus he is always trying every means to not upset her.

But although General Mu stopped his laugher, he still looked at Xunr with a satisfied smile.

Seeing that General Mu has stopped his laugher, Madam Mu looked at Xunr who has almost buried her head in embarrassment.

"Xunr. Go.You don't need to be embarrassed. Take the thing he give you." Madam Mu said to Xunr in a low voice.

Xunr looked up and then looked at Mu Tian. Feeling her gaze, Mu Tian nodded at her with a smile.

After getting his nod, she timidly walked beside General Mu.

General Mu look out a defensive magic neckless and gave it to her.

"Daughter, keep this item with you. It has a defensive formation craved on it. It can automatically act and protect you from the attack of a peak Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator."

Seeing General Mu giving such a precious treasure, Elder Guan and Elder Jin didn't want to fall behind. They also took out their gifts and gave it to Xunr.

In the end, they started to talk about when Mu Tian and Xunr could get married officially.

After discussing for a while, they fixed seventh day of the next month as the date of marriage.

When Mu Tian left with Xunr who's face is red with embarrassment, it's already past noon.
