Chapter 4073: Young Lady, I Believe You!

"But how could a perfectly fine person suddenly turn into a corpse-puppet in the woodshed?"

"The Heaven's Will Soaring Heaven Hall Master has how many improved potions in her possession? No need to explain that, right?"

"Is she telling the truth??" Mu Jingfeng finally snapped back to reality, his hair disheveled and bloodied, staring at Mu Qingya, whose neck was held by a blade. "Is she telling the truth??"

"Of course not," Mu Qingya sighed. "How could I, a woman with no power, have the virtue or ability to be a Hall Master of Heaven's Will?"

"Jingfeng, we've been married for so many years. I do resent that you forced me against my will back then, but... in all these years, what have I done for you, what have I done for the entire Mu family? I sacrificed over a decade of my youth, what have I given to this family? Can't you see any of that?"

As Mu Qingya spoke, tears welled up in her eyes, as if she had suffered immense grievance, her expression utterly sorrowful.

However, Mu Jingfeng took a step back, his gaze somewhat shrinking as he looked at her.

He realized that this wife, with whom he had shared a bed for so many years, he truly understood less and less.

"Old Family Head, Old Madam!" Mu Qingya looked at the two elders with tears in her eyes. "Even you believe it? Believe that I'm part of that cult organization? Believe that I, Mu Qingya, have done something to betray the Mu family?"

The Old Madam sighed, her gaze sweeping towards Qiao Mu. "Qiao Qiao, this, is there some misunderstanding?"

"There is no misunderstanding," Qiao Mu said, her expression indifferent.

She had never expected these Mu family members to stand by her side, and she had never expected any of the Mu family to be able to stand by her side.

But regardless, right is right, and wrong is wrong.

Since she already knew this woman's true face, how could she not expose her?

"Mu Qingya, you indeed put on a good act, deceiving so many people, and for so many years. Today, no matter whether anyone believes me, you will not escape death!" Qiao Mu spoke coldly, her gaze sharp as she looked at her.

"Young Lady! I believe you!!" Suddenly, a Mu family disciple with his arm in a sling spoke out.

"Young Lady, I believe you too!" another Mu family disciple nodded heavily.

"The Young Lady has no need to deceive us!"

"Exactly! The Young Lady risked danger to save us Mu family members; there's absolutely no need for her to tell us any falsehoods!"

Feng Chen's eyes subtly twitched, revealing a faint, unreadable smile.

It seemed that these younger generation Mu family disciples weren't so foolish as to be beyond salvation.

Mu Xingchen turned his head and glanced at his sister, then looked at the group of young Mu family men and women who, though bruised and injured, seemed spirited. He couldn't help but show a very faint smile.

Qiao Mu turned her small face expressionlessly, her gaze falling on Mu Qingya. "After Xiao Xing became a corpse-puppet, you then collaborated with Nie Yaoguang to spread rumors. You said that monsters appeared in the Mu residence because the Crown Princess, the source of disaster, had returned to the Divine Land."

Mu Qingya slightly turned her head, her gaze chilling as it settled on the little Crown Princess.

"Unfortunately, this rumor was suppressed by my swift and decisive action before it could even spread."

"Your plan failed again," Qiao Mu stared at Mu Qingya with a cold, piercing gaze.

"After that, you also knew about the matters of Juxian and Meixian."
