A rare magical miracle in the world

Chapter 739 - 417: Two Tasks at Once (Requesting Monthly Votes)



"Come back with me."

Mu Yunji fixed her gaze on Yunxiao, the powerful oppressive force making the latter unable to utter a single word.

However, this pressure only lasted for a moment, as a figure stepped in between Mu Yunji and Yunxiao—it was Fengdu.

"You little brat, what are you doing!"

"What did I do?"

Fengdu, "It's obviously you who are disregarding the rules, here there are at least six Masters of Miracles, and you want to take someone away without giving any reason, isn't that excessive?"

You son of a....

Mu Yunji forcefully suppressed the urge to burst out with profanity, knowing why the notoriously timid and conflict-averse Fengdu dared to stand up for her, "You would go this far for her?"

"For whom? I'm just talking sense to you."

Fengdu was unwilling to admit it, because the Corpse Bride was too jealous.

"Say less, don't provoke her anymore."

Ying Muyao shook her head helplessly, explaining to Mu Yunji, "Back then, this child fought alongside your family's girl in the abyss, and she saved his life."

The Nine States People hold dear the idea that a small kindness deserves a deep well of gratitude, let alone a life-saving grace.

"Hmph."

Mu Yunji, too, was born among the Nine States People, her gentle demeanor towards Bailuo was also to repay the kindness of her old uncle.

Everyone was the same, it wasn't something that couldn't be understood.

"Shall I have a word?"

Bailuo had figured out the relationships involved.

Firstly, Fengdu knew Yunhua even before becoming a Master of Miracles; then, they were comrades-in-arms, with the latter even saving his life.

There were those among the Nine States People who were ungrateful or even returned kindness with ingratitude, but there were also ones like Fengdu and Mu Yunji who would risk everything, repay a life-saving debt with their own lives.

Although Fengdu had schemed against her, Bailuo judged the deed as well as the person.

For this issue, Fengdu had to offer benefits, then Bailuo could quell the dissatisfaction in her heart.

Yet for the person Fengdu was, whether it was his mission appearing in the Black Leather Book proving his true intentions were with Bailuo, or him becoming a Master of Miracles and still remembering his roots, daring to challenge the stronger Mu Yunji for the sake of a friend.

From this perspective, Fengdu was the kind of character that Bailuo liked and admired.

'This person is not bad, worthy of friendship.'

Adding both aspects together, Bailuo first addressed the uncomfortable issue, "You schemed against us, you need to give us an explanation."

"Naturally."

Fengdu sincerely responded, "I will definitely give Duke Yatun a satisfactory answer when the time comes."

Well, then there was no issue with that.

If you can make an offer that satisfies me, as Bailuo was poor at the time and if there was a feast to be had, he would be more than willing to be troubled more times.

Wanting to be arrogant and disdainful? Sure, become wealthy first.

Yet even if he really became wealthy, if someone could make Bailuo say, 'he has given too much', then even 'delicious' wouldn't be shameful, right?

'Beneficial, and decent character, worth lending a hand.'

After pondering in secret, Bailuo prepared to intervene in this matter, "So let me ask first, do you still have designs on this plane?"

"No."

Fengdu's sense of right and wrong dealt with equal beings; the mortals from the Underworld, ghosts after death, at worst they reincarnated a few times, he truly didn't care.

"I don't either."

The Corpse Bride had only been trying to spite Fengdu, after all, she had plenty of dimensions in her possession.

Moreover, to the Master of Miracles, dimensions that could produce resources were the truly valuable ones; they did not really care for mere dimensions.

"Then let's skip the issue of dimensions and focus on discussing her matter instead."

Bailuo looked towards Mu Yunji. They weren't actually very familiar with each other, but due to his uncle's kindness and the verbal marriage agreement from the past, Mu Yunji placed great importance on Bailuo.

Female characters from Nine States usually had this kind of personality; their value systems were fixed. Even Ying Muyao respected her brother above all, always considering Bailuo's face and reputation in everything.

"Give her to me."

Mu Yunji was somewhat worried that Bailuo would make a decision on the spot.

As his fiancée and future wife, somewhere deep inside, Mu Yunji was a little afraid of Bailuo.

Of course, this fear was not terror, but respect for her husband-to-be.

Whether it was his words or actions, Mu Yunji felt she should always put him first. For example, if Bailuo said she was wrong now, Mu Yunji wouldn't dare to contradict him.

The Female Sword Emperor advocated celibacy in Heavenly Court and strictly forbade fairies from thinking about mortals, which stemmed largely from her own way of thinking.

"How about giving her to me then?"

Bailuo's words startled everyone, and both Mu Yunji and Fengdu had not expected him to say that.

"You don't want her to stay in the Underworld any longer," Bailuo then pointed to Fengdu, "And you, young brother Fengdu, do not wish for her to fall into the hands of the Sword Emperor. If we continue like this, then wouldn't having her follow me solve the problem?"

A person who was able to cultivate to the Supernatural Peak in the Lower Tier dimension, just one step away from becoming a hero—her potential needs no further mention.

Yunxiao's strength wasn't enough, not because of a lack of talent, but due to the constraints of world rules.

If the dimension's height is only 10 meters, can you grow to 11 meters and break through the heavens?

Even if you did grow taller than the heavens, you would have to stoop and hunch over, which is actually less comfortable than being 9 meters or 8 meters tall—at least they could exert all their strength, while you would struggle even to move.

"I have no problem with it!"

Fengdu hastily raised his hand, as long as Yunhua's child was not harmed by Mu Yunji, he had no objections.

And to have Yunxiao follow him, a fairy-like individual going to the Underworld to mingle, seemed discordant to Fengdu.

"I…"

Mu Yunji thought for a moment and felt that since Bailuo was her betrothed, having her niece's daughter with him didn't seem any different from her being with herself.

If they were to marry in the future and Heavenly Court and Yatun were united as one, wouldn't Yunxiao be in her hands anyway?

Mu Yunji was a woman with a very strong desire for control, and when someone like her was controlled by others, the stronger her desire for control, the greater the degree of control exerted upon her.

Just like how Mu Yunji would expect her subordinate fairies to listen to her without question, facing Bailuo, she would also feel 'I must listen to him, as it's only right.'

"It's possible."

Mu Yunji agreed, "But Yunhua, she must come back to me!"

"Whoosh."

At that moment, within Bailuo's mind, two pages from the Book of Yagen were shining brightly—Fengdu's task of fairness and justice, and Mu Yunji's task of reconciling and acknowledging Yunhua.

Both tasks undergoing changes at the same time indicated to Bailuo that the current events could potentially affect the continuation of these tasks.

If Bailuo promised Yunhua to Mu Yunji, out of respect for her face and personal favor, then Fengdu's task would probably fail.

Conversely, Mu Yunji's task would likely encounter issues.

Faced with choosing one over the other, Bailuo did not expect that a small matter could actually activate two Miracle Subjugation Missions, 'What should I do? How should I choose?'
