Chapter 5305: Pledging Allegiance

"That Mu Qingya really has a knack for things."

"A mere housewife, yet her schemes reached the heavens, completely bewitching my husband."

Of course, Mu Jinghong also harbored a desire for revenge against the Mu family, which is why he became entangled with that woman.

However...

They had been together for so long, and Zhuo Yan never expected that Mu Jinghong, that cold and ungrateful man, would actually develop genuine affection for Mu Qingya.

Mu Jinghong truly fell for that mistress, which is why he was completely played and thoroughly used by the Hall Master of Heavenly Fate's Flying Heaven Hall.

Not only did she ruin the entire Shadow City, but she also ruined her and her two children.

The thought alone made Zhuo Yan gnash her teeth in hatred.

If Mu Qingya were in front of her right now, she wouldn't hesitate to tear that venomous woman apart with her bare hands.

"I truly predicted correctly."

"Before, I noticed that his correspondence with that mistress was frequent, as if they were plotting something," Zhuo Yan said through clenched teeth. "I never imagined Mu Jinghong could be so brainless."

"He actually trusted that mistress's words and truly brought everyone in Shadow City to join Heavenly Fate."

"When Mu Jinghong joined, he didn't even ask for my opinion, nor the opinion of his two children! He recklessly sold all our lives!" Zhuo Yan was so heartbroken that she wished she could cry out loud.

"The three of us combined aren't as important in his heart as that vile Mu woman!" Zhuo Yan suddenly burst into mad laughter. "Since that's the case, when disaster strikes, everyone fends for themselves. Naturally, I won't care if he lives or dies."

"I never expected that fleeing Shadow City with my two children would lead to being caught red-handed by Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty, I can tell you everything about Mu Jinghong."

"Including all his buried assets, and their approximate locations, I can tell you everything," Zhuo Yan took a deep breath, pleading, "I only ask Your Majesty to grant me one request: let my two children go. Even if you take my life, it doesn't matter."

"Mother!" Mu Feixia and Mu Yuan-ying cried out in alarm.

"Mother, if you don't go, your son won't go either."

"Mother, if we go, we go together!"

Mu Yuan-ying and Mu Feixia, tied together, were sweating profusely and shouting anxiously.

Zhuo Yan glanced at her two children, signaling them to shut up.

She lifted her neck and swore to the heavens, then quite resolutely bit her finger, drawing a drop of blood to make a Heavenly Dao Blood Oath.

A streak of blood light flashed across the sky, indicating that the oath was complete.

Zhuo Yan looked at Duan Yue, her face filled with righteous fury, "I knew early on that Mu Jinghong would be killed by that mistress he kept outside."
