Chapter 3472: 4.1072 Perplexing...

"Everyone gets old. Grandmother's realm is stagnant, so her vitality will naturally gradually..."

"No way." Qiao Mu held her hand and shook it, saying softly, "Grandmother, as long as you obediently listen to me and take your medicine on time, I guarantee you'll be radiant in a month."

"Besides, isn't it too early to be saying such discouraging things? You still have to see your great-grandchild born."

The old lady was startled, then her eyes curved into a smile. She patted Qiao Mu's small hand, nodding repeatedly with delight. "Good, good, my dear grandchild, Grandmother will certainly not disappoint your expectations. I will take good care of myself and watch my precious great-grandchild be born."

Feng Gu smiled, entering with a respectful bow. "The Crown Prince has arrived."

The old lady nodded. When she saw her grandson's tall and slender figure enter, she kept looking at him with a strange gaze.

Crown Prince Mo was utterly baffled. After exchanging pleasantries with his grandmother, he practically dragged his wife and fled...

Out of the bedchamber, the Crown Prince pulled Lady Qiao Qiao into his embrace, his eyes slightly narrowed as he looked down at his wife. "Confess honestly, what bad things were you saying about me to Grandmother just now?"

Why did Grandmother keep staring at him with such a bizarre look?

It was as if she was looking at him with an expression of "disappointment for not living up to expectations"...

What had he done to make Grandmother stare at him with such a disapproving look, truly making his hair stand on end.

Qiao Mu blinked, her gaze somewhat evasive, murmuring, "What could I say? I didn't say anything."

Crown Prince Mo saw the little one's guilty look and immediately reached out to tickle her. "Quick, tell me, what did you say?"

Qiao Mu kept a poker face for a while, then couldn't help but burst into a giggle, twisting in his embrace and exclaiming, "I didn't say anything! Nothing at all! Ah, I still need to set up another array in the suburbs. We have to leave tomorrow, time is tight, don't mess around!"

Mo Lian was somewhat amused and exasperated. Where was he messing around?

This little one was so good at bullying him!

Look at her little expression; whenever a topic she didn't want to discuss came up, she would immediately force a change in subject, completely oblivious to what awkwardness was.

"Let's go, let's go." Miss Qiao tugged at his sleeve twice, urging him, and pulled him out of the palace.

Over the past year on Sikong Star, the number of corpse puppets had significantly decreased. Additionally, cultivators continuously organized themselves to participate in corpse puppet clearing missions.

As the number of corpse puppets sharply declined, the lives of the people on Sikong Star once again became peaceful and stable, and days gradually improved.

The defensive fortifications across Sikong Star were still constantly being erected. In the next few years, there would likely be no need to worry about the corpse puppets taking action again.

The two left the city and headed for the suburbs.

Qiao Mu said softly, "I think Heavenly Fortune must have completely withdrawn from Sikong Star."

Mo Lian nodded. "Yes, I think so too."

That's why the number of corpse puppets wasn't increasing, because there was no Heavenly Fortune operating behind the scenes, continuously producing them.

"Life on Sikong Star will also get better in the future, and Little Yu's pressure won't be so great."

Thinking of his increasingly mature and steady twelfth brother, Mo Lian's face also showed a hint of pleasure. "Mm."

He truly was the brother he highly regarded; now he handled matters with increasing thoroughness.

During this confrontation with the group of bandits from the Divine Land, he also displayed his strength and resilience.
