From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

Chapter 358: Chapter 350: Whose Kid is Being Taken Care of Today?_1

Fang Ren had returned here, intending to spend some loving time with Mu Huanqing, but his mother-in-law, Mu Tianyuan, urged them both to quickly change into black attire, asking them to attend the mourning ceremony for the Tianjiang warriors afterward.

Now that Fang Ren had returned, Mu Huanqing was no longer downcast; they rightfully should attend the funeral.

And because of this, Mu Huanqing had no choice but to take Cai Cai to look for Xiao Xuan.

At that moment, Xiao Xuan was blushing, whispering something with a few of the female soldiers huddled in a corner.

"What? Madame Xuan was spanked by Fang Ren?" Xiao Xuan looked shocked.

"Oh my! It wasn't just that! Fang Ren also said he was going to punish Madame Xuan properly tonight, ah! I was so embarrassed watching it!"

"If that's the case, why isn't Madame Xuan angry?" Xiao Xuan didn't understand.

"What do you know, you girl? You've hardly been around men all your life, how could you understand Madame Xuan's feelings at the time?" A female soldier giggled.

"What feelings?" Xiao Xuan was very curious.

"Go find yourself a boyfriend, sleep with him once and you'll know."

...

Mu Huanqing stood not far away, watching these girls tucked away in the corner and laughing maliciously. She knew they weren't discussing anything good!

She didn't expect to overhear such conversation the moment she walked over!

Buzz!

The Hundred Martial Divine Weapon suddenly flew out, its silver light illuminating the entire Mu Family Manor.

The next moment, the manor was filled with the female soldiers' screams, like those of pigs being slaughtered.

"Sister, it's all Nizhu's fault! She kept dragging me into these dirty jokes!"

"That's not true! She already had a bit of that in her, otherwise how would she understand what I meant!"

...

"Go! The lot of you, drain your Spiritual Energy and run fifty laps around the manor!"

Mu Huanqing scolded with a flushed and angry face.

These fools never learned anything good, never focused on cultivating, and just knew how to gather secretly and make dirty jokes!

"Xiao Xuan, you stay."

Seeing an innocent-faced Xiao Xuan about to join in the run, Mu Huanqing stopped her.

"What's wrong, Sister?"

Upon hearing she'd been called to stop, Xiao Xuan's heart leapt with joy, thinking she wouldn't have to be punished.

"You will look after Cai Cai for me today. She's already fed, so don't give her any more milk powder," Mu Huanqing instructed.

"Alright!"

Xiao Xuan took over Cai Cai, silently thinking to herself that although the other sisters always told her she was naive, being naive had its advantages.

Find adventures at mvl

See, Sister had punished them and not her.

"I need to leave for a bit and will probably be back by noon."

After saying that, Mu Huanqing turned and walked in a certain direction.

"Sister." Xiao Xuan suddenly called out to her.

"What is it?" Mu Huanqing turned around.

Xiao Xuan frowned slightly and said, "About tonight, Sister you..."

Mu Huanqing's face reddened again. Even Xiao Xuan, this pure girl, had been corrupted by those dirty jokers!

But knowing Xiao Xuan, Mu Huanqing was sure the girl didn't really understand those matters.

"Don't ask, and talk less with Nizhu about these kinds of things next time," Mu Huanqing said.

"That's not what I mean, I was saying..."

As she spoke, Xiao Xuan suddenly took on a determined look, earnestly saying, "Your injuries haven't fully healed. Tonight's punishment from Fang Ren... let me take your place! If someone must be punished, let it be me!"

"..."

"Sister, why aren't you saying anything? Are you too moved? Don't worry, I think with my Realm, I can handle it."

"Xiao Xuan, hand me Cai Cai."

"Here."

"Now, immediately, drain your own Spiritual Energy and run one hundred laps around the manor."

"What!? Why!"

Suddenly, Xiao Xuan stood rooted to the spot as if struck by lightning.

"Ask Nizhu."

Mu Huanqing left the spot, carrying Cai Cai with her.

Xiao Xuan looked aggrieved: "But... you just told me not to talk to her."

That day, the naive Xiao Xuan suddenly became a lot less naive.

After parting from Xiao Xuan, Mu Huanqing had no idea who else could take care of Cai Cai, as almost everyone in the house was going to attend the funeral, and all the servants in the manor were busy with their duties.

"What happened, where's Xiao Xuan?"

Fang Ren, now dressed in black, stepped out of the room, but noticed that Mu Huanqing had not yet handed Cai Cai over to Xiao Xuan.

Seeing Fang Ren come out, Mu Huanqing's expression became a bit awkward: "She's, she's gone to train."

"I see."

Fang Ren thought about it, realizing there weren't many other suitable candidates to take care of children.

Just then, a figure floated down beside Mu Huanqing, eyes fixated on the child in Mu Huanqing's arms, revealing a fascinated expression.

"Hey! Big sister, you're just in time!"

Fang Ren saw that the person was Zhu Yuan and immediately thought a suitable caretaker for the child had arrived.

Unknown to him, Zhu Yuan wasn't paying any attention to him, but kept looking at Cai Cai: "To think I could see the Tree of Ten Thousand Paths here..."

Only then did Mu Huanqing realize there was someone standing beside her. Moving backward a step while holding Cai Cai protectively, she showed a wary expression: "Who are you?"

Zhu Yuan looked Mu Huanqing up and down, then glanced at Fang Ren: "Your wife?"

"Right, the child in my arms is indeed mine," Fang Ren nodded.

Zhuyuan looked at Mu Huanqing with a slight frown, "Divine Weapon's small spirit body, with poor qualifications, you really have poor taste in choosing a wife. But your child, on the other hand, is not bad."

Upon hearing this, Fang Ren wished he could smack her with a brick, but that wasn't an option. Even a billion of him couldn't beat Zhuyuan.

"I just want to marry her! Is that any of your business?" Fang Ren gritted his teeth in frustration and helplessness.

Mu Huanqing was very unhappy, this woman had been rude right from the start, criticizing Ah Ran's taste in wives.

But there was nothing she could do; it seemed this woman knew Ah Ran, and she couldn't exactly start a fight while holding a child, could she?

"That girl with the Sacred Body of Returning Origin, if her Spirit Embryo is still intact, with a hundred years of cultivation, she might truly be the most suitable partner for you in this world," Zhuyuan couldn't help but recall Liu Qianqian.

The possessor of the Sacred Body of Returning Origin was undoubtedly the strongest on this small planet.

"..."

As soon as this was mentioned, Fang Ren's expression instantly stiffened.

Liu Qianqian...

He hadn't yet explained to Mu Huanqing about what happened between him and Liu Qianqian.

Even though he had been unconscious at the time, the incident had still occurred, and it was a betrayal, no matter how you looked at it.

Zhuyuan then looked at Cai Cai with fascination: "This child is truly favored by the heavens, with the Tree of Ten Thousand Paths as her spirit. I'll surely meet her again at the Hongyu Chasm in the near future."

Mu Huanqing, seeing the woman talking to herself, turned her gaze to Fang Ren: "Who is she?"

Fang Ren came back to his senses and smiled, "Her? She's the bad woman who tried to force me to leave you before, but later on, I bought her off with two firewood sticks."

Zhuyuan gave him a sidelong glance; this mortal was disrespectful from the moment he opened his mouth.

And what kind of adjective was 'firewood'? Could the Divine Weapon from the true creator's era be called firewood!?

"You better let her go then, I have a feeling... she's like someone who would steal children," Mu Huanqing clutched Cai Cai tightly in her arms.

Steal children?

Zhuyuan got a headache, truly a matching couple.

"If she really wanted to steal the child, the two of us probably couldn't stop her."

Fang Ren walked over to Mu Huanqing and took Cai Cai in his arms, then said to Zhuyuan, "Big sister, do you know how to take care of children?"

Mu Huanqing was puzzled, "Why did you give Cai Cai to her?"

"A free nanny, why not use her?" Fang Ren said.

Upon hearing 'free nanny', Zhuyuan frowned, but she had no choice since she had accepted something from Fang Ren, and she had also promised to ensure the safety of Fang Ren's family.

Mu Huanqing remained cautious: "But giving Cai Cai to her, I'm somewhat uneasy."

Hearing Mu Huanqing actually consider her a child stealer, Zhuyuan casually formed a lump of True Qi and aimed it at the sun.

"If I wanted to steal this child, billions upon billions of you couldn't stop me."

Having said that, the seemingly harmless True Qi in Zhuyuan's hand suddenly turned into a pillar of light shooting towards the sun.

Without any sound, the light pillar vanished.

Mu Huanqing looked at the sky, and nothing seemed to have changed. She just felt that the light pillar was quite large and appeared endless.

"Big sister, are you setting off fireworks?" Fang Ren couldn't quite grasp Zhuyuan's actions.

Zhuyuan sighed, "Mortals are mortals, only with borrowed light can they see things clearly."

With that, Zhuyuan gently picked up Cai Cai from Fang Ren's arms and glanced at Mu Huanqing again, "You can rest assured, I will take better care of the child than any of you mortals could."

Mu Huanqing saw Fang Ren simply hand over Cai Cai to the woman, and although she still felt uneasy, she thought the woman must be trustworthy if Fang Ren was willing to hand over the child.

Whirr—

As she was thinking this, the woman's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, leaving only a sound behind.

"Cai Cai!"

Mu Huanqing's Spiritual Energy erupted instantly, and she became frantic.

But Fang Ren remained indifferent; he had seen the woman's strength, and if she truly wanted to take the child, she could've simply knocked him and Mu Huanqing aside and left.

"Ah Ran! Cai Cai is gone!"

Mu Huanqing, seeing Fang Ren's composed demeanor, became frantic, shaking his shoulder violently.

Fang Ren, his vision blurring from the shaking, quickly said, "It's okay, she'll definitely come back soon. If not, I'll just promise her to participate in some Celestial Selection..."

Whirr—

Before he had finished speaking, Zhuyuan's figure suddenly reappeared in the same spot, looking at Fang Ren with excitement, "Are you going to participate in the Celestial Selection Battle?"

"Cai Cai!"

Mu Huanqing immediately took her daughter from Zhuyuan's hands, while her other hand held a long spear aimed at Zhuyuan.

"Didn't I already say I won't participate?" Fang Ren, seeing her interest in the matter, felt utterly helpless.

"Spoilsport!"

Zhuyuan rolled her eyes at him and then tapped the edge of the long spear with her finger.

Crack crack crack—

The spear instantly shattered into pieces and fell to the ground.

Mu Huanqing was astonished; how could her weapon be so fragile?

Zhuyuan waved her hand, and the shattered pieces on the ground suddenly coalesced, reforming into a spear.

"Now this spear should be much stronger than the one you had before."

Zhuyuan casually tossed the spear back to Mu Huanqing, who caught it and noticed thousands of tiny breaths on the edge.

She could feel that these breaths were extraordinary, and it seemed that with just a bit of Spiritual Energy infused, the breaths would burst forth.

"You are..."

Mu Huanqing witnessed such an astonishing scene for the first time and was momentarily speechless.

Fang Ren said, "She claims to be some sort of Immortal or something like that."

"Immortal? What is that?" Zhuyuan didn't understand.

"In the ancient language, it means a very powerful Immortal," Fang Ren explained.
