The number of these corpse puppets seemed to be increasing.

Qiao Mu glanced indifferently at the stone slab door, her fingers moving swiftly as she sketched a breaking talisman in the air, directly sending it flying onto the stone door.

Chen Shang watched in surprise, her heart stirring slightly as she thought, No wonder when she mentioned the talisman array outside the ancestral hall yesterday, the little Crown Princess seemed unfazed.

It turns out the Crown Princess's talisman art is so exquisite.

The art of drawing talismans in the air... in this era, she's likely the only one capable of it.

The breaking talisman vibrated on the stone door, instantly clearing the defensive talisman array attached to it.

Qiao Mu used her large spirit hammer to lightly tap a stone groove beside her. The stone slab door instantly slid upward with a clatter.

In that instant, there was a considerable commotion inside the stone chamber. Countless dazzling spiritual energies aimed at the entrance, ready to be unleashed!

Then, Old Master Mu's deep voice rang out, "Everyone, stop!"

Everyone looked over in surprise.

They saw the little Crown Princess standing gracefully there, a cold expression on her frost-white face, her gaze sweeping over them with disdain.

"Qiao Qiao," Old Madam Mu sighed in relief, quickly patting the hands of her son and daughter beside her, repeatedly calling out, "What are you doing, all of you, retract your spiritual energy, retract it!"

The stone chamber was quite large, filled with people at that moment.

Presumably, all the direct and collateral members of the Mu family who had been transferred were here.

In the passage, they had dealt with hundreds of corpse puppets, whether from Heavenly Fortune or the Mu family, it was unclear.

Now, there were probably over a thousand people in the stone chamber, which was likely the entire Mu family from Imperial Capital City.

"Crown Princess," Mu Qingya breathed a sigh of relief, quickly stepping forward and bowing. "You've come to save us, haven't you?"

"Thank you for your rescue." A middle-aged man in his thirties, named Mu Liang, who seemed to have always been an attendant by Mu Jingfeng's side, stepped out from behind Mu Qingya and politely bowed to Qiao Mu.

Qiao Mu found this man somewhat familiar. She nodded, and the little Crown Princess looked at Old Master Mu expressionlessly. Although the Old Master seemed a bit dispirited, his clothes were clean.

Then, looking at some of the scrawny, disheveled Mu family members slumped against the wall, Qiao Mu said indifferently, "Let's go out and talk."

"We can't go out!" A woman's sharp voice shrieked. "Outside are monstrous creatures with bared fangs! We can't go out, we can't!..."

Qiao Mu turned and walked out, not wasting a single word.

Chen Shang glanced at the little Crown Princess, then nodded and bowed to the Old Master. "Old Family Head Mu, please."

Mu Cang nodded, said nothing more, and supported his wife as they followed Qiao Mu out of the stone chamber.

The woman continued to shriek in a shrill voice, "Are you all crazy? Do none of you want to live? Haven't you seen how terrifying the monsters outside are?"

Yuan Qionger, standing beside her, was terrified by the old wet nurse's demeanor. She tightly clutched her small handkerchief, her face pale with nervousness.

These past few days had been especially difficult for her.

Especially after the Old Master was half-crippled and locked up, raging daily, she lost her dependence, and no one in the First Branch paid any attention to her anymore.

She twisted the handkerchief in her hands, biting her pale lips tightly.
