Chapter 5215: 5.0967 Excitement

Mu Xiaoxue repeatedly exclaimed, "Yes, yes, Pa-Patriarch. We're family, we're family."

"I haven't seen you much before," Qin Hong said with a smile.

Luo He forced a smile, pulling at the corners of his mouth, "That's because Hall Master Mu protects this daughter very well, Patriarch. Hall Master Mu and City Lord Mu both highly value this daughter."

"Oh, so it's Jinghong and Qingya's child. No wonder she's so well-behaved, hahahaha." Seeing this, Qin Hong put on the face of a caring elder and nodded towards Mu Xiaoxue.

Mu Xiaoxue was so frightened at this point that her soul was nearly leaving her body. Yet, with Patriarch Qin's benevolent smile directed at her, she had no choice but to awkwardly force a smile. She got up, knelt properly, and kowtowed to Patriarch Qin.

Mu Xiaoxue whispered, "Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue doesn't know, Pa-Patriarch, why you brought Xiaoxue here in the middle of the night."

"Do you really not know?" Luo He smiled sinisterly, a smile that almost stopped Mu Xiaoxue's heart. "Your good senior brother, Zhao Yi, came to my room in the middle of the night trying to steal the Qiankun Dou Zhuan Talisman. He confessed everything, saying it was all at your instruction."

"What?" Mu Xiaoxue had calmed down by now, and she opportunely put on a bewildered expression, wiping away tears from the corners of her eyes like a delicate white flower, and wailed, "Master Luo, Patriarch Qin, please don't listen to Senior Brother's nonsense. I, I never told him to steal any, any talismans."

"That talisman, I've never even heard of or seen it, so how could I instruct Senior Brother to steal it?"

Zhao Yi, hanging from the rafters, naturally heard what his junior sister said and quickly twitched his body. He was somewhat baffled, how could his junior sister say such a thing? Was she just eager to distance herself, or was he overthinking it?

"Oh, you didn't?" Qin Hong put on a benevolent smile, chuckling, "But your good senior brother has already confessed to us."

"He stole the Qiankun Dou Zhuan Talisman because of you."

"You haven't heard of the Qiankun Dou Zhuan Talisman?" Qin Hong chuckled at her. "No way. This Qiankun Dou Zhuan Talisman has the most effect on ordinary people like you."

When Mu Xiaoxue heard the words "ordinary people," she couldn't help but bite her lower lip hard. She hated nothing more than being called an ordinary person. Ordinary person, she was an ordinary person, she was born an ordinary person, and an ordinary person with no hope for life.

"Patriarch Qin." Mu Xiaoxue opportunely wiped away her tears, sobbing, "I, I really didn't incite Senior Brother to steal, steal..."

Qin Hong waved his hand at her, signaling her to listen. "This Qiankun Dou Zhuan Talisman can seize the luck from cultivators and usurp others' fortunes. It's indeed a good talisman."

"And in our Talisman Hall, over all these years, we've only successfully drawn one. Tsk tsk, wouldn't you say it's precious, top-tier?"

Mu Xiaoxue's eyes brightened several shades, almost unable to control the strong desire in her heart. It really exists! The Talisman Hall really has the Qiankun Dou Zhuan Talisman! Then, that must belong to her, Mu Xiaoxue. If Xiaoxue had this talisman, she could definitely, definitely defy fate, change her luck for the rest of her life.

She, she was about to rise. Mu Xiaoxue gripped a jade hand tightly, her whole body trembling slightly with excitement.

The Qiankun Dou Zhuan Talisman!
