Chapter 4753: You Don't Understand Her

"Wh-what kind of heaven-defying divine skill is this?"

Everyone looked on in stunned terror at the human-shaped wave.

This overwhelming wave formed a colossal phantom, casting a shadow that covered the daylight before them.

Qiao Mu stood before this solidified phantom. With a slight tug of her finger, a Fuxi Great Sword materialized in the phantom's hand, chopping straight towards Long Qian's back.

"Pfft."

Long Qian fled with incredible speed, but still failed to evade the phantom's heavy strike.

She had originally thought that, given the little girl's low-level Divine Realm cultivation, she couldn't possibly injure her...

However, she forgot that this was the possessed body of Long Xiangyun. With Long Xiangyun's cultivation, how could she withstand Qiao Mu's blow? Her body immediately pitched forward into the seawater.

Long Qian coughed up a mouthful of blood. The cold water chilling her body sent a shiver down her spine.

Her divine soul swayed, her head ached. Unable to hold back, when Long Qian emerged from the water, she sprayed blood again, her face drastically changing.

Qiao Mu stared expressionlessly at Long Qian floundering in the water, her eyes filled with boundless coldness.

She and Long Qian were like fire and water, their enmity irreconcilable.

If, at first, Long Qian had held some hope for her, as their contact deepened, there was no trace of kinship left in her feelings for Qiao Mu.

Forget Qiao Mu, just look at how she treated Long Xiangyun.

A granddaughter she had watched grow up since childhood, yet she possessed her without hesitation, disregarding whether Long Xiangyun's body would collapse.

This iron-hearted woman, if she had even a shred of genuine affection for her descendants, would never have committed such an outrageous act.

"Move away, quickly!" Long Hui frantically gestured to some of the surrounding Merfolk clan members.

Everyone else didn't need his reminder; they dodged wherever they could. Some more quick-witted Merfolk had already plunged into the water, desperately fleeing towards their clan territory.

Right now, everyone had but one thought: Get away from this demonic little star, the further the better!

Commanding the phantom formed by the waves, Qiao Mu strode forward, chasing after the scrambling, fleeing Long Qian.

Everyone's eyelids twitched violently. They watched as the phantom raised the great sword high in its hand and swung it down heavily.

"Bang!" Long Qian was slammed in the back by a wave, once again tumbling into the seawater with a "pfft," unable to surface for a long while.

Long Hui's mouth hung open, unable to utter a sound for a long time.

Seeing Mu Xingchen with a solemn expression hurrying over, Long Hui quickly said, "C-cousin. Pl-please, please persuade her..."

Mu Xingchen didn't even bother to give Long Hui a direct look. "Though I didn't witness what happened in the Sacrificial Sea Abyss just now, I can mostly guess it."

"Long Hui, ask yourself, was Long Qian's action towards Qiao Qiao fair? Does she even have humanity left?"

"Cousin, do, do you think I was trying to... trying to beg for Grandmother's mercy?" Long Hui couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh.

"I, I'm not so shameless as to beg for her mercy again. I, I'm just worried about Xiangyun's safety," Long Hui said with a worried look. "Xiangyun can't endure being beaten like this by Cousin. She... from beginning to end, she knew nothing. Including me obeying Grandmother's words and coming to Snow Island to approach Cousin, she knew nothing about that either."

"I hope Cousin can persuade her. Let Cousin show mercy, for the sake of the time she spent with Xiangyun."

Mu Xingchen gave Long Hui a cold glance, shook his head, and said, "You don't understand her."

"You've spent so much time with her, yet you still don't understand her."
