Chapter 1349: Threat

This guy deflected her ferule with just a bit of spiritual energy.

Hence, Qiao Mu could only turn around in mid-air to grab her ferule. She then took a step in the air and landed in front of Mu Jingrui with a somersault.

“Qiaoqiao, can you listen to me?” Mu Jingrui lowered his voice exasperatedly.

“Garrulous!” Qiao Mu glared at him irritatedly and took a step backward. “Do not come to my home anymore in the future. I get annoyed to death whenever I see you.”

“How could you darn lass mistake good for bad!” Old Bai was enraged. “You think we are just obsessed with asking you to come back? We are doing this for your sake!”

“Don’t forget that your surname is Mu. You are a child of the Divine Province’s Mu Clan.”

For my sake, for my sake! It’s obvious from that expression whether it was truly for my sake at heart! These two big fat liars still wanted to deceive her?

“Scram!!” Qiao Mu kicked straight for Old Bai’s mouth.

In his rage, Old Bai crossed his arms to defend.

Therefore, Qiao Mu’s kick landed on his bulging forearms. Her feet stagnated in the spiritual energy that he was emitting, and she was unable to move them, as if glued to his arms.

Qiao Mu was so infuriated that her eyes glowered, and she grabbed a handful of poison powder from her sleeve to throw at this old man.

Suddenly, that Old Bai’s eyes flickered, and he vigorously pushed her away.

“Old Bai!!” Mu Jingrui yelled.

Old Bai had used seventy percent of his strength to repel Qiaoqiao. It was bad now!

In response to this old fellow’s shove, Qiao Mu hastily reinforced her defensive barrier with three more water spiritual barriers. Even so, she still felt the blood roiling in her chest from the overwhelming spiritual energy recoil.

After Old Bai’s shove, her small figure got sent flying out uncontrollably, causing her back to crash ramrod straight into a tree in the courtyard, which promptly snapped that tree into two.

This old fellow was quite strong!

From the looks of it, his great spiritual cultivator level was probably higher than the middle-aged woman Fan Gu’s.

“Darn lass, you have to know that there’s always someone better out there! You should not be ignorant and look at the sky from the bottom of a well.” Old Bai scoffed, “You actually dare to decline with all sorts of excuses when our Mu Clan of the Divine Province is willing to accept you back. Yet you don’t contemplate whether there are consequences in all of this. If you really aggravate our Mu Clan of the Divine Province, what do you think will happen to your foster parents?”

“Old Bai!” Mu Jingrui hastily interrupted Old Bai’s words but was cut short by a wave of his hand in return. “Seventh Master, this little lass has been spoiled and clearly does not know how high the heavens are nor how deep the earth is. Today, just take it as me properly admonishing and teaching her in place of her birth parents.”

After he finished his piece, the Qiao Zhongbang couple’s expressions changed drastically. “You people from the Mu Clan of the Divine Province have gone too far!”

Mu Jingrui hurriedly cupped his hands toward the Qiao Zhongbang couple. “Please do not get angry. Qiaoqiao has some misunderstandings with our Mu Clan. I hope that you will help advise her…”

*Boom!* A vine that was as thick as the mouth of a bowl whipped the ground at Old Bai’s feet.

Old Bai was shocked. When he looked up, he saw a figure gliding down to him through the air.

Her spirit binding rope snaked out from her sleeve and up Old Bai’s hands, tying his dark wrists up with a knot.

Qiao Mu pulled the rope from the other end, promptly securing Old Bai’s wrists with the spirit binding rope.

Meanwhile, he frantically clapped his palms to struggle free of this rope.
