Chapter 5252: 5.1004 A Hundred Excuses Won't Help

Going forward, these seeds of doubt would become the most unstable factors in the Divine Land.

Meanwhile, the Mu family members, who were besieging Mu Jingfeng, formed an array to trap him.

Old Master Mu was the first to strike, twisting Mu Jingfeng's arm backward and forcing him to the ground.

Mu Jingfeng felt the array, which had gathered most of the Mu family's power, weaken one of his knees, instantly crushing him to the ground.

Qiao Mu glanced at Mu Jingfeng, seeing him pressed down, his eyes blood-red, looking as if he was about to mutate again.

Fearing that the foolish Mu family members would suffer, she secretly tugged at her husband's sleeve.

Mo Lian immediately understood, flicking his hand, sending a stream of black fire that coiled around Mu Jingfeng like a fiery chain, binding him tightly.

With a "hiss," the clothes on Mu Jingfeng's arm immediately turned to ash.

He couldn't help but roar, "Qiao Mu, Qiao Mu!!"

Mu Xiaoxue shivered slightly, then suddenly turned her head, as if discovering a new continent, pointing and shouting, "It's him, I recognize him, it's him!"

Everyone was startled by her piercing shout and instinctively looked in the direction she was pointing.

Mu Xiaoxue casually exclaimed, "I recognize him, it's him, there's no mistake. In Jiawei City, he was bitten by a corpse puppet. Qiao Mu saved him, you believe me, it's true, everything I said is true."

"At that time, he was dying and on the verge of death. It was Qiao Mu, Qiao Mu not only saved him with the sacred fruit but also made him fully recover. No, he even improved beyond his previous state!"

These words were absolutely accurate, but they were all Mu Xiaoxue's fabrication.

As an ordinary woman, she naturally couldn't discern Duanmu Qing's current cultivation level, but her nonsensical explanation, apart from the "dying and on the verge of death" part being inaccurate, otherwise largely matched the actual situation.

Qiao Mu had indeed saved Duanmu Qing with the sacred fruit.

And Duanmu Qing had indeed greatly improved his power due to the sacred fruit. Not only did he break through to the Divine Realm, but his cultivation speed was also countless times faster than ordinary people, allowing him to advance rapidly within the Divine Realm.

Little Fatty protectively stood in front of Duanmu Qing, glaring at Mu Xiaoxue and sternly saying, "You're spouting nonsense! Where was he dying and on the verge of death? You're the one who's going to die, you're the one who's dying!"

"Duanmu was bitten by a corpse puppet, but do you know? Duanmu is a Heavenly-level Pharmacist! He has been using his medicinal power all this time to extend the time before his mutation!"

Qi Xuanxuan quickly echoed, "Exactly! Lacking ability themselves, they insist on saying others rely on external medicine for self-healing. What kind of intentions are those?"

"That's right." Duanmu Qing suddenly pulled up his sleeve, revealing a wound for everyone to see.

"This is the wound from being scratched by the corpse puppet. I have to treat it every three days. I use the antidote produced by Qiao Qiao and her team, combined with my medicinal power, to make the wound heal somewhat."

"But soon, this wound will crack open again, and the decaying color of death will reappear."

"Nonsense, he's spouting nonsense!" Mu Xiaoxue screamed in exasperation. This wound clearly had a fresh color, and the blood was bright red, indicating that Duanmu Qing had just cut it himself!

But those foolish commoners couldn't hear her explanation at all. A wave of shouting instantly drowned out her solitary, weak cries.

"Bitch!"

"Troublemaker!"

"Stop talking!"
