Chapter 4104: 4.1704 Delayed

In fact, after reaching the fortieth floor, it took this fellow about three to five days each time to recover his depleted spiritual energy.

To be honest, Qiao Mu later completely forgot about this oddball.

After all, their venture into the Chaoyang Tower was before her wedding on the sixth day of the sixth month...

And now it was late July.

It would be a miracle if she remembered him...

After that, the little stoic girl let him stay in the Chaoyang Tower; it had nothing to do with her if he wanted to train until the end of time.

It wasn't until just now that she suddenly felt this person being flung out by the Chaoyang Tower. The little stoic girl quickly stopped and directly pulled his flying body in front of her.

Mu Jiateng didn't even notice where he was flung from.

He only thought he was thrown outside directly after exiting the Chaoyang Tower.

He didn't realize that for a moment, his body hovered in mid-air in the star domain, and a continuous stream of divine power washed over his meridians, making his whole body tremble.

He merely faintly smelled a salty, damp scent carried by a sea breeze.

"Th-Then, how did I end up h-here??"

The chubby boy looked at Mu Jiateng, this pitiful child, with sympathy. Knowing that his own little stoic girl was definitely too lazy to explain to this guy, he patted his shoulder. "You can stay here for now. Come back with us in a few days. Don't worry, it's not very dangerous."

"I'll take you out for drinks tonight." Qi Xuanxuan pinched her nose and glanced at him. "But before that, you'd better wash yourself clean first."

Mu Jiateng turned his head and saw that the little stoic girl and Crown Prince had already left him, walking away with expressions of disdain.

It was then that he realized his clothes were covered in grime; his perfectly good white training uniform was now so black that its original color was unrecognizable.

"S-Sorry, brother, could you take me to a room to bathe and change?"

"Come with me," the chubby boy said with a warm smile.

"Oh, right, later I'll also ask the Crown Prince Consort. She actually cleared the ninety-ninth floor of the Chaoyang Tower. I wonder how long it took."

"Oh, you can just ask me about that." The chubby boy beamed, delivering a direct hit to the guy. "It only took Qiaoqiao one day and one night to clear the Chaoyang Tower and reach the ninety-ninth floor. Her name is now inscribed on the stone tablet in front of your Chaoyang Tower."

The chubby boy smiled brightly.

The Chaoyang Tower was now located on an island on the Yulan Star. Everyone knew about the little girl's feat of bravely clearing the ninety-ninth floor of the Chaoyang Tower.

Mu Jiateng's jaw dropped...

The next day, after a period of rest, everyone gathered energetically at the path in front of the manor.

The little stoic girl looked around with a displeased expression, then looked up at Mo Lian. "That guy isn't here."

Mo Lian slightly furrowed his brow and stroked her head. "Don't worry, he sent a message. Something came up in the palace that delayed him. He estimates it will take a few days to handle."

"Will he be okay?" Qiao Mu looked up at him.

"Something did happen, but it's not about him. Emperor Cangzhou is close to his end," Mo Lian whispered softly in her ear.

Suddenly, a laugh came. "Oh, I said the magpies were chirping all morning! Turns out I saw my Qiaoqiao!"

Crown Prince Mo shot a displeased, cold glance.

He saw Young Master Qin innocently blink at him, asking with a half-smile, "Why isn't Duan Xiaosi here?"
