Wearing Douluo Continent clothing: Imprisoned by Bibi Dong at the start

"My lord! Two elders of the Haotian Sect are causing trouble in the palace. We urgently request your assistance!"

Upon hearing the words "Haotian Sect," Tang Yuehua's heart suddenly trembled, but her movements as she plucked the strings remained perfectly steady, and the music continued to be elegant and beautiful.

Mu Changge, who was lying on her side on Hu Liena's lap enjoying an ear cleaning, got up and stretched: "It's so nice to be able to stretch my muscles again~"

However, he did not step out the door directly, but turned to look at Tang Yuehua in the cage.

"Would you like to come with me and meet your people?"

Anyway, Xueye knew that Tang Yuehua was in his hands, and Mu Changge wasn't afraid of others finding out about this. If Tang Yuehua wanted to live in the sunlight again, that was certainly possible.

Upon hearing this, Tang Yuehua trembled, and the contemptuous looks she received from the Haotian Sect members after awakening her martial soul involuntarily surfaced in her mind.

"No, no, I'm afraid I'll get in the way if I go. I'd better stay here and practice the piano."

Upon hearing Tang Yuehua's words, Mu Changge didn't ask any more questions and walked straight to the door.

……

After an unknown amount of time, even Tang Lie grew impatient and shouted, "Xue Ye! You must give me an explanation today regarding Yuexuan!"

Being repeatedly yelled at in public, even on a snowy night, couldn't help but ignite anger. His voice suddenly turned cold as he said, "Oh? Then what explanation do you want?"

Xueye suddenly became so tough not because of anything else, but because he saw Mu Changge leisurely walking into the hall.

The other ministers also noticed Mu Changge's figure, and they all seemed to gain confidence, straightening their spines and looking directly at the two elders of Haotian Sect.

When Xue Qinghe looked at Xiang Mu Changge, he both loved and hated her!

Because he remembered how his middle and ring fingers had become wrinkled from soaking in whale gelatin the last time he ingested it, he barely managed to release its aphrodisiac effects.

Fortunately, the harvest was good. His physique had been greatly enhanced, and he could absorb a higher-age soul ring for the next one, so he could barely forgive Mu Changge.

Tang Lie and Tang Li also noticed the change in the atmosphere in the main hall and turned around in confusion.

The newcomer was a young man around twenty years old. He was wearing a blue coat, with his left hand behind his back and his right hand constantly tossing a gold soul coin up and down.

His long, jet-black hair was tied into a high ponytail at the back of his head with a pink hairband, making him look like a truly handsome young man.

However, Tang Lie and his companion lost interest after just one glance, since they couldn't sense any soul power fluctuations from Mu Changge and simply considered him an ordinary person.

As Mu Changge passed by the two elders, she glanced at them indifferently and then ignored them, instead bowing slightly to Emperor Xueye.

"I apologize for my lateness, Your Majesty."

To the surprise of the two elders, Emperor Xueye not only did not blame the man for his rudeness, but was also very polite to this "ordinary person".

"Oh? What are you saying, Minister Mu? I'm overjoyed to have you here! Guards, bring me a seat!"

On a snowy night, he beckoned to two eunuchs who brought over chairs and placed them next to his throne.

Mu Changge didn't stand on ceremony. She took a few steps forward and plopped down on the chair, crossing her legs and saying, "Your Majesty, please don't mind me. Please continue, please continue~"

"My two elders, you haven't told me what kind of explanation you want!"

"That's right! Tell me, what kind of explanation do you want from us?!"

Originally, Xueye wanted to check with Mu Changge to see if they could secure a victory and whether they needed to mobilize the Imperial Guards to assist in the battle.

But seeing Mu Changge so relaxed and carefree, not even taking the two elders of Haotian Sect seriously.

Therefore, when he asked Tang Lie a question, the confidence in his tone inevitably increased.

Even the ministers who had been keeping their heads down and not daring to utter a word spoke up in agreement.

Something is wrong!

Ever since this young man arrived, Xueye and the others have been reacting strangely!

The Fifth Elder frowned and looked closely at Xiang Mu Changge, but no matter how he tried to sense it, he couldn't detect any soul power fluctuations from the other party, and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"He's clearly just an ordinary person... Could it be that Xueye is deliberately trying to scare us? No, judging from these people's reactions, it doesn't seem like it..."

To be on the safe side, Fifth Elder Tang Li spoke before Tang Lie could.

"Emperor Xueye, we can let bygones be bygones regarding Yuexuan's matter, and we won't inquire about Tang Yuehua's whereabouts, but Yuexuan's wealth must be returned to our Haotian Sect!"

After all, with Tang Yuehua's wealth, she could support the entire Haotian Sect for decades! That's quite a fortune.

For the Haotian Sect, which had hastily closed its mountain and was not financially strong, this money was crucial for its survival!

Upon hearing this, Emperor Xueye raised an eyebrow, glanced subtly at Mu Changge beside him, and waved his hand to refuse.

"That's impossible! Yuexuan's wealth was already confiscated and transferred to the national treasury!"

In reality, only a small portion was diverted into the national treasury. The bulk of Tang Yuehua's wealth was secretly transferred to Mu Changge by Xue Ye.

This was unavoidable, after all, the Empire had already become enemies with Tang Hao, and Dugu Bo had died not long after.

Giving up these riches on a snowy night was also a way to prevent Mu Changge from becoming dissatisfied with him because of these things.

To avoid Tang Hao or the Haotian Sect sending people and Mu Changge ignoring them.

However, judging from the fact that Mu Changge came to "protect" the people from Haotian Sect as soon as they arrived, Xue Ye felt that she had not made a mistake back then.

He willingly took the blame!

I wonder if Mu Changge would burst out laughing if he heard Xue Ye's thoughts...

However, even if that money were given to Mu Changge, not a single gold soul coin would end up in the hands of Tang Yuehua, the original owner.

Poor Tang Yuehua worked hard for half her life, only to go from being a super-rich woman to having zero assets overnight.

Even the ownership of her own body already belongs to Mu Changge.

Oh wait!

If I had to name a few, she also had a harp, a bed, and a birdcage that Tang Hao had personally crafted for her—all of these were hers…

Upon hearing that Emperor Xueye refused to return the wealth, Tang Lie and Tang Li's expressions simultaneously turned cold.

"So, you're saying you're going to forcibly seize the money that rightfully belongs to our Haotian Sect?"

"So what if it is!"

Xueye glared at him, clearly indicating that she was no longer willing to argue with him.

"Very well~ What a fine Emperor Xueye is! Today, my brother and I will see just how much your Heavenly Dou Empire really is!"

Tang Lie and Tang Li summoned their Clear Sky Hammer spirits almost simultaneously, even though there was a risk of being detected by the Spirit Hall.

However, the two of them couldn't just give up that wealth and let the entire Haotian Sect starve!

Moreover, they didn't think a fight would actually break out; at most, they would just have to give up some of their wealth.

"Protect His Majesty!"

Upon seeing the opponent summon their martial spirit, the ministers rushed towards Xue Ye's direction, seemingly genuinely concerned for the emperor's safety.

In reality, these people were merely using the pretext of protecting Xueye to hide behind Mu Changge; Xueye herself was completely alone...

The two elders did not immediately take action together. Instead, the Seventh Elder, Tang Lie, took the lead in testing Mu Changge, this "ordinary person".

"You little brat, take this!"

Tang Lie stomped his foot, causing the ground to crack open, and he instantly charged towards Mu Changge! (End of Chapter)
