Like a magic spell, Eva Green’s words came true one after another in the following period of time.

The first was Muyu Qinxin, followed by Mu Qianhe …

One November afternoon, Brandon Peter came to the Rain Prayer Temple and visited Muyu Ling Lan. In the side hall of the Divine Hall, an old man and a young man sat opposite each other, roasting a fire and drinking afternoon tea, while discussing the arrangements for the Praise of the Gods Festival next month.

“Will Xiaoqing still be in charge of the float parade this year?” Brandon took a sip of black tea, put down the white porcelain cup with cherry lace and asked seriously.

“Yes, Grandpa Brandon.” Mu Yu Ling Lan nodded and replied.

‘”Xiaoqing is a good child” Brandon stroked his beard and sighed, “I remember when she first came here, she was thin and small. She asked her what she liked to eat, and she said anything. It really hurt … I didn’t expect that she would grow so big in a blink of an eye.”

“Yes.” Mu Yu Ling Lan echoed. Her voice was neither salty nor faint, making people unable to hear her taste.

“Oh, right” Brandon seemed to recall something as he spoke. “What did Xiaoqing think about my two great-grandsons last time?”

“Grandpa Brandon, Xiaoqing has no plans to return to the mortal world for the time being.” Mu Yu Ling Lan said expressionlessly.

“Oh” Brandon twisted his beard and muttered to himself for a while before sighing. “Little Yu, we’re all smart people. Let’s be honest.”

“You are an elder. If you have any opinions, please give me more advice.” Mu Yu Ling Lan smiled faintly and made a “please” gesture.

“Tell me, does Xiaoqing have someone he likes?” Brandon asked.

Mu Yu Ling Lan hesitated for a moment before nodding lightly in the end.

“Is he one of the eight nobles of Silver City 13?” Brandon asked.

Mu Yu Ling Lan shook her head.

“For a thousand years, we have been loyal to the Divine Hall. The Divine Hall is responsible to us, isn’t it?” Brandon continued to ask.

“Yes.” Mu Yu Ling Lan nodded.

“Then” Brandon straightened up and asked, “should Xiaoqing stay here according to our usual practice?” Before Mu Yu Ling Lan could reply, he continued, “In this period of time, whatever you want, we will give it to you. We have already proved our loyalty to the Divine Hall with our actions. As a new generation of Rain Prayer Sacrifice, should you show some sincerity?”

Mu Yu Ling Lan did not answer, only closed her eyes.

Seeing this, Brandon sighed deeply and said, “Little Yu, Grandpa is not forcing you …”

Mu Yu Ling Lan lowered her head and replied, “I … I know …”

“I don’t want to bully women or children, but this is our tradition …” Brandon paused for a moment before continuing. “For the sake of internal unity, some sacrifices and trade-offs are necessary. I believe your mother will agree with me.”

Mu Yu Ling Lan said with difficulty, “Xiao Yu, I understand …”

“Child, perhaps you will find that love is only a small part of life, not irreplaceable. Only a long, stable and comfortable living environment is our ultimate pursuit.” Brandon said earnestly, “Let’s get to know each other at this year’s Praise Ball. Could it be that none of our thirteenth Silver City is attractive to her?”

“I will consider your words carefully.” Mu Yu Ling Lan pondered for a while and said sincerely.

“Little Yu, you have been a sensible child since you were young. We old fellows all believe in you and hope that you can distinguish the seriousness of the matter.” After saying that, Brandon stood up and said goodbye.

Hearing the sound of footsteps gradually fading away, Mu Yu Ling Lan fell into deep thought for a long time. According to the customs of the Divine Hall of Prayer for Rain, some of the sisters should return to the secular world, join hands with the nobles of the parish, give birth to their descendants, and then return to the Divine Hall to work. Only by having a bloodline could one guarantee the long-term unity between the Divine Hall and the nobles of the territory. Mu Yuqinxin’s identity was quite special. She was not only the sister of the Rain Prayer Sacrifice, but also the priest of the Divine Hall. She was the most suitable link between the nobles of the territory and the Divine Hall.

Brandon Peter personally came to persuade him, which meant that there was no room for detour in the matter. However, this was not their fault. Even if the previous generation’s Rain Prayer Sacrifice was here, they would still make the same decision. Since ancient times, only blood ties could guarantee common interests.

Perhaps, they should have grown up and stop being willful. That person is a gust of wind, a cluster of fire, but not forever …

“Crack!”

The fire in the fireplace jumped happily, occasionally producing a crisp sound or two, emitting a faint wooden fragrance.

At the same time, 10,000 kilometers away, Mu Qianhe, who was in the dark jungle, encountered similar problems. After receiving an injection of 150,000 gold coins, the Vermillion Bird Guild grew rapidly. They recently recruited five veteran mecha pilots, equipped with five Tiger mechas, recruited a group of skilled scouts, and expanded the mecha maintenance team. At present, the team has begun to take shape, has a unique combat ability.

However, as the troop grew stronger, it gradually attracted the attention of others.

Several young noble leaders who had investigated Mu Qianhe’s family background proposed marriage to the Golden Horned Mu Clan in the Far East at the same time. Since Mu Qianhe’s family was only a small side branch of the Mu Clan and was favored by the small nobles of the Western Continent, the Patriarch, Mu Baiyu, was naturally overjoyed.

As a result, e-mails urging her to go back on blind dates appeared one after another in her mailbox, giving her a headache. She wanted to refuse, but she couldn’t. As a woman from the Far East, following the arrangements of her family’s elders was an eternal principle. If she didn’t go back, her parents would be criticized by their clansmen.

Moreover, that person had already abandoned her and chased after her dreams. If she clenched her teeth and persisted like this, what kind of result would she wait for?

She was confused when she was worried about the gains and losses. A woman’s youth is always incomparably short. If she can’t find a home when she is young, she may die alone in this life. Perhaps it would be a good choice to find a suitable partner and have a few children to live a simple life. After all, in a person’s life, other than himself, he had to take into account the feelings of others. She was not afraid of such a fate, for she had loved so much that it was worth it. However, her parents would be extremely upset about this.

At the same time, the threshold of the Qin Clan’s mansion was almost broken by the matchmaker of the Ten Miles Eight Towns. However, Qin Baoshan refused one by one, on the ground that “the third girl has a man, please go back.”

In the midst of the disturbance, the first heavy snow of early winter quietly arrived, covering the entire world with a layer of white veil.

Early in the morning, just after breakfast, Tie Zha was summoned out of his cell by the prison guards. He came to the open space in the middle of the castle in heavy shackles and enjoyed a rare time of leisure.

“Hey! Friend, do you have any cigarettes?” A skinny old man stepped forward and asked.

Tie Zha shook his head and the old man left disappointedly.

“Sir, do you want some fun? Just one gold coin.” A youth with shining eyes leaned over and whispered.

“Huh?” Tie Zha frowned.

“Good Jack.” The youth glanced left and right and said.

“Not interested.” Tie Zha replied.

“Alright.” The youth shrugged and left.

Just as Tie Zha was talking to the youth, a few strong men gathered around the other side of the open space and discussed in a low voice.

“Mallets, aren’t you going to teach him a lesson? Hurry up and go.” A sturdy man provoked.

“Of course I will teach that rookie a lesson, but now is not the time.” Said the muscular man known as the “baseball hammer”.

“When is the time?” Another burly man asked with a smile.

“I will tear open his organs!” The hammer clenched its fists and the joints cracked.

“Hey hey hey, look, he’s here.” At this moment, a sturdy man looked behind the club and said.

The hammer hurriedly turned around and saw the young man stepping on the snow and walking over step by step. He immediately opened his mouth wide, as if he was scared silly.

“I heard that someone wants to teach me a lesson, right?” Tie Zha stood in front of the club and asked indifferently.

“You must have heard wrong.” The hammer said respectfully.

“Are you questioning my hearing?” Tie Zha frowned and asked.

“This” The hammer subconsciously took a step back and said, “Those who dare to say this must be tired of living.”

“Why are you here?” Tie Zha did not continue to dwell on the previous question. Instead, he asked about other matters.

“I saw something I shouldn’t have seen.” The club thought for a moment and said.

“I took something that I shouldn’t have.” The strong man on the left said.

“I spent some money that I shouldn’t have spent.” The strong man on the right said.

“Play word games with me?” As soon as he finished speaking, the three burly men flew backwards and threw their heads into the snow.

After a while, the four of them squatted together again. Tie Zha looked around and introduced himself, “I fell in love with someone I shouldn’t have loved.”

“High!” The hammer gave a thumbs up with admiration. Then he asked, “Big brother, how many years have you been sentenced?”

“I don’t know.” Tie Zha replied. Indeed, no one had ever told him when he would be able to leave this place.

“Life imprisonment, so are we” The mallet extended its hand to Tie Zha.

After shaking hands with the three of them and chatting for a while, Tie Zha came to a general understanding of their situation. The hammer was originally a small noble, but when he accidentally saw a piece of information about the Aurora Plane, he was sent here. He didn’t understand the details of that information at all. He only knew that it was a new plane.

As for the other two, they were also small nobles of the Western Continent. They had made some mistakes and were imprisoned here. According to them, the prisoners here are all on death row and there is no definite term of imprisonment. They were either socially influential or had special talents, or their families were particularly wealthy and were able to pay high prison fees, which was why they were not summarily executed.
