Chapter 5138: 5.0890 Not Afraid of Failure

Is it really okay for it to be so unreliable?

Qiao Mu quickly walked over to her pitiful husband, reaching out to pat him comfortingly. "Don't be afraid. It's just a paper tiger. It wouldn't dare to truly strike you down; it's just hitting near your feet to scare you!"

"Wifey, why does it target me when you're the one provoking it?"

Qiao Mu pondered for three seconds, then said earnestly, "Probably because it doesn't dare to provoke me!"

Crown Prince Mo: "..." My wife is so impressive; what am I to do?!

"Qiaoqiao, then you must protect me well!"

Qiao Mu nodded forcefully, patting his chest with a serious expression. "Next time it dares to scare you, we'll go up to the sky and strike a hole in it!"

Wei Ziqin repeatedly twitched her lips, looking up at the sky. It was still a clear, pristine blue sky for thousands of miles, with no hint of thunder or lightning. She quickly stepped forward, saying to her daughter and son-in-law, "Should be fine now, right? Was Little Mo affected by the lightning just now?"

Actually, how could the Crown Prince be hurt? He just habitually acted pitiful in front of his wife, finding excuses to cling to her for affection. Seeing his mother-in-law's frightened expression, the Crown Prince quickly stepped forward with a smile. "Mother, I'm fine. I was just startled by the sudden thunderclap. It didn't hit me anywhere, so rest assured."

Wei Ziqin saw that the Crown Prince, in his white robes and dark hair, was unsullied and indeed didn't look like he had been struck by lightning. Only then did she relax, smiling and nodding.

The three walked into the living room, chatting and laughing.

Wei Ziqin suddenly remembered something and turned to her daughter. "Qiaoqiao, you said you were going into seclusion for three days to make an elixir. Is the elixir…"

Qiao Mu was silent for a moment, then nodded. "It has succeeded."

"So, is Peak Master Murong…?"

Qiao Mu shook her head. "Not, not yet. I haven't given it to her."

Wei Ziqin held her daughter's hand, her face filled with comfort. "Qiaoqiao, don't put too much pressure on yourself."

"Yes, yes, Mother is right." Mo Lian quickly interjected. "Qiaoqiao, just do your best in everything."

Wei Ziqin nodded emphatically. "Precisely."

Qiao Mu pulled at the corners of her mouth towards the two. She understood the道理 (dàolǐ - principle), but it was difficult to actually do it… Her heart was filled with the light of hope. But she also feared that this light would eventually be engulfed by darkness.

"Don't worry." Mo Lian held her hand, offering firm encouragement. "I believe in Qiaoqiao. Your alchemy skills are unparalleled." If even the elixir you make isn't effective, then… Murong Xun might truly have no hope. "I have so much confidence in you, so why don't you have that confidence in yourself?"

Looking at her husband speaking so casually, Qiao Mu reluctantly nodded at him, taking a deep breath. "Not afraid of failure, moving forward bravely." "I'll go give the elixir to Master in a bit."

"Good!"

Wei Ziqin felt somewhat comforted seeing her daughter's mindset seemingly ease.

"You've been in seclusion for over two days, which means your breakthrough this time probably took over a month in the star domain."

"Mother, that's not considered long now," Mo Lian told his mother-in-law. "The further you go, the longer breakthroughs will take. Once you enter the Super God Realm, cultivating in seclusion for a breakthrough might not be considered long even if it takes one or two years." "Fortunately, the star domain has a twelve-times time flow effect."
