Chapter 187 The truth back then

"Mu Nanyue, you are so bold that you dare to be so disrespectful to me. Believe it or not, I will have someone kick you out of the Mu family!" As he said this, the old ancestor of the Mu family stared at her with resentment in his eyes.

"Heh." Mu Nanyue sneered and ignored his words. She successfully took the magic stone from the arms of the Mu family's ancestor.

When touching the magic stone, Mu Nanyue felt that it contained a mysterious power.

Can this thing really predict?

Mu Nanyue frowned slightly and wanted to ask how to use it, but she saw that the seriously injured ancestor of the Mu family had completely fainted.

It would be a waste to give him the pills, so Mu Nanyue thought about it and turned around and left.

How could a small magic stone defeat her? Moreover, she also has the system.

Soon, Mu Nanyue had returned to the flower-like enchantment. As soon as she landed, she couldn't wait to ask, "Xiao Tongzi, how do I use this magic stone?"

As soon as the voice fell, System 007 immediately searched the magic stone and soon got the answer, "The host just needs to inject spiritual power."

"So simple?" Mu Nanyue was a little surprised, but did not doubt the system at all. Then spiritual power flashed at her fingertips, injecting a thin stream of spiritual power into the magic stone.

In an instant, the magic stone emitted a dazzling light, enveloping Mu Nanyue.

The sudden light was so dazzling that Mu Nanyue subconsciously closed her eyes. After opening her eyes, she found that the surrounding environment had undergone earth-shaking changes.

At this moment, she was standing in a desolate temple. The surrounding environment was very strange, yet it felt very real.

"What is this place?" Mu Nanyue frowned slightly. Just as she was about to reach out and touch the towering tree next to her, she heard an old voice coming from not far away.

This voice was very familiar, and Mu Nanyue couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. Then she saw the ancestor of the Mu family, wearing a black robe, rushing towards her with anxious eyes.

"Moshi, Moshi, the noble person you predicted for me is in this broken temple, but I have been here for three days and three nights and have not seen a single person..."

The ancestor of the Mu family walked around alone, couldn't help but sigh, and even doubted the power of the magic stone in his hand.

“If it weren’t for helplessness, who wouldn’t want to ascend to the immortal world with their true strength? But I’ve lived for tens of thousands of years, and I’ve practiced hard for tens of thousands of years, but I still can’t comprehend the last level…”

The ancestor of the Mu family gnashed his teeth in anger, his eyes full of unwillingness, "If there is really someone who can help me ascend to the immortal world, no matter how slim the chance is, I must give it a try!"

Hearing his mumbling, Mu Nanyue gradually came back to her senses. She looked around and had some vague guesses in her mind.

She should have entered the memory of the Mu family's ancestor, thanks to the magic stone.

……

I don’t know how long I stayed there, but Mu Nanyue couldn’t leave for the time being, so I slowly walked to the stairs next to me and sat down.

Thinking that she would still hear the chattering voice of the Mu family's ancestor, Mu Nanyue was about to close her eyes and rest, when she suddenly heard cries for help and the sound of heart-wrenching fighting.

"Take the children and go quickly!" the man raised his deep and powerful voice.

Mu Nanyue was stunned and subconsciously wanted to help them resist the killers outside. Just as she was gathering her spiritual power, she realized that she was now in the memory of the Mu family's ancestor.

And what she saw before her eyes was what the ancestor of the Mu family saw back then.

"Bang bang bang-"

At the entrance of the ruined temple, there was a couple dressed in gorgeous clothes, accompanied by several bloodstained guards. Around them and behind them, they were surrounded by a group of men in black.

At this moment, the man with a heavy face and the guards were protecting the woman and the child in her arms.

The atmosphere between the two sides was tense, and it seemed that they were about to fight again. The man quickly summoned a holy-level magic weapon and sent the woman forward without hesitation. Without even turning his head, he shouted, "Run, run for your life!"

The woman's eyes were red and tears flowed uncontrollably down her cheeks to the ground. She held the child tightly in her arms and her whole body couldn't help but tremble.

She seemed to have been enveloped by despair, her eyes slowly closed, and her voice was hoarse: "Husband! You must live!"

But this is no longer possible.

Before the woman could get away, the man was chopped down by the swords of the highly skilled assassins, who caught up with her at lightning speed and quickly surrounded her.

Seeing this scene, the ancestor of the Mu family who was hiding in the dark narrowed his eyes.

He did not act rashly, but watched the woman being assassinated. Until the assassins were determined to let go of the child in her arms, the magic stone burst into a strong light in an instant.

The assassins were inexplicably repelled!
With such a commotion happening, the whereabouts of the ancestor of the Mu family naturally could not be hidden and was immediately noticed by the assassins.

"Who? Come out!"

Seeing the assassins getting on guard, the ancestor of the Mu family also came to his senses. He knew that the previous movement of the magic stone was all because of the child in the woman's arms, so he showed up without saying a word and attacked everyone.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

"Ahhhh——" Heart-wrenching screams rang out instantly, and the assassins were killed in one blow before they could even react.

The remaining injured people fled in a hurry, and the old ancestor of the Mu family did not chase after them. It was not because he was soft-hearted, but the child in the woman's arms was more important to him.

His expression was indifferent as he walked slowly to the woman's side. He saw the baby sleeping in her arms. The baby was wrinkled and not cute at all, and it was obvious that the baby had just been born.

The corners of the Mu family's ancestor's lips curled up, especially when the magic stone in his hand became hot when it was close to the little baby, and an unfathomable look flashed in his eyes.

Not long after, the ancestor of the Mu family turned around and left the temple holding the baby.

My dear, he has found it.

Seeing this scene, Mu Nanyue, who was still in her memory, felt inexplicably heartbroken and couldn't bear to see the couple die tragically like this.

Before she had time to think, the scene in front of her quickly changed.

At the Mu family, after the old ancestor of the Mu family appeared holding a baby, he heard that Madam Mu was giving birth, so he turned around and went to find the head of the Mu family.

In the brightly lit study, Patriarch Mu looked at the little doll handed over, his face was shocked and puzzled, but he quickly recovered and asked softly, "Grandfather, what do you mean by this?"

"She is just a helpless little kid, but from now on, she will be your biological daughter. You must treat her sincerely. As for her name... call her "Mu Nanyue"."

She is the auspicious sign predicted by the magic stone, so she will be the apple of the Mu family's eye in the future.

Hearing the words of the ancestor, the head of the Mu family's face changed slightly, "But, my wife..."

Before he could finish his words, the ancestor of the Mu family turned his head and glanced at him indifferently. His eyes were calm, but they made people feel extremely oppressive.

The head of the Mu family did not dare to say any more words. He reached out and slowly took over "Mu Nanyue".
