Chapter 20: Meeting the In-Laws in the Capital
With Little Fairy Doctor on the left and Azure Scale on the right, Mu Zhan unleashed his fighting spirit and flew towards the capital.
Now that Mu Zhan has broken through to the Dou Ling level, his Dou Qi reserves are sufficient to support long-distance flight. Furthermore, after integrating the Strange Fire into his body, Mu Zhan's rate of absorbing the energy of heaven and earth and converting it into Dou Qi has accelerated, allowing him to recover Dou Qi more quickly and thus achieve a cyclical effect.
Before long, Mu Zhan saw the outline of the capital city. He landed with the two of them, put them down, and chose to walk into the city together.
As soon as they entered the city, the prosperity of the capital city came into view, and all sorts of things attracted the eyes of the two little girls.
They had never been to the capital before and were very curious about everything there. It felt like entering a new world with many new things they had never seen before.
"Don't worry, just take a look. Buy whatever you like. Money is the last thing I'm short of."
Looking at the two girls, Mu Zhan waved his hand and told them to spend as much as they wanted.
As the young master of the Mu family, one of the most prominent families in the capital, he certainly had no shortage of money.
"Yay! Thank you, our young master Mu Zhan!"
Little Fairy Doctor was very happy. There were many things and delicious foods that she had never seen before, and she wanted to learn about them all. However, since she was brought by Mu Zhan, she dared not make any big moves, for fear of embarrassing Mu Zhan.
Only after receiving Mu Zhan's order did she let her true nature run wild, pulling Qing Lin along to various stalls and shops to admire and select items.
Seeing the two of them so happy, Mu Zhan was genuinely happy too. They were both quite young, and this was exactly how people their age should be.
Moreover, with Little Fairy Doctor guiding Qinglin, her timid personality can be changed, which will be very helpful for Qinglin's future.
Since there was still some time before Canaan Academy's enrollment, Mu Zhan simply acted as a companion, showing the capital city around with the two girls.
Consider this a relaxation period after this period of cultivation. Cultivation also requires a balance between work and rest.
"Mu Zhan! Hurry up! Let's go check out the front!"
As Mu Zhan was feeling sentimental, Little Fairy Doctor's voice suddenly came from ahead.
"They're here!"
……
After Mu Zhan left, a graceful and alluring figure emerged from his original spot.
"Is he Mu Zhan?"
Today, Yafei had a rare opportunity to go shopping, hoping to buy some items she liked.
To everyone's surprise, they heard someone calling out "Mu Zhan".
She turned her head and saw the figure running forward. He was tall and handsome, dressed neatly and exuding a strong and resolute aura.
She made a good first impression on him, but it's a pity that this Mu Zhan has too many suitors.
She was both familiar with and unfamiliar with Mu Zhan.
He was familiar with the stories of Mu Zhan all over the capital. He began practicing Qi cultivation at the age of four, became a Dou Zhe (a martial arts master) at the age of ten, and was also proficient in alchemy. He was known as the number one genius in the Jia Ma Empire for a hundred years.
She was unfamiliar with Mu Zhan because although she had heard of his great name, she had never seen his face.
Mu Zhan has been cultivating at home for many years and is also a war-loving maniac, so he rarely participates in exchanges in the capital that are unrelated to cultivation.
Furthermore, the clan leader intended to arrange a marriage between her and Mu Zhan. The Mu family was powerful and had produced a peerless genius like Mu Zhan. If she married into the family, her future would be bright.
But deep down she didn't want to be a victim of this kind of family marriage. Just when she didn't know what to do, she received the news that Mu Zhan refused the marriage. She should have been happy to receive this news, but for some reason, a trace of regret rose in her heart instead.
"I have mediocre talent, so it's normal for people not to think highly of me."
Ya Fei glanced at the figure surrounded by two women, then turned and left.
Mu Zhan was unaware of all this; he was helping two girls pick out clothes.
"Mu Zhan, do you think this outfit looks good on me?"
Little Fairy Doctor walked out of the fitting room, wearing a light purple dress. She twirled around in front of Mu Zhan, behaving very playfully.
"It looks great! I'll buy it!"
Mu Zhan acted like a nouveau riche, swiping his card directly.
Qinglin also came out of the fitting room. Little Fairy Doctor had chosen a green dress for her, which suited Qinglin's gentle temperament very well.
"Young...Young Master."
Qinglin felt a little shy, but remembering what Little Fairy Doctor had whispered to her, she mustered up her courage and changed her clothes.
"The Azure Scales are so beautiful! I'll buy them!"
Mu Zhan thought this was a good sign; at least Qing Lin was dressing up now, so he swiped his card directly.
The three of them bought a lot of good things, packed them into their storage rings, and headed towards the Mu family's residence.
"My son is back!"
While Mu Chen was dealing with family affairs, a servant came to report that his son, Mu Zhan, had returned.
He immediately put down what he was doing, called Mu Zhan's mother, and rushed towards the reception room.
When they arrived at the reception room, they saw their son, Mu Zhan. To their surprise, there were two beautiful young women next to Mu Zhan.
"Father, Mother, I'm back."
When Mu Zhan saw his father arrive, he got up and came to the two of them.
"Great! Zhan'er has grown up so much, and he's gotten quite a bit taller!"
The speaker was Mu Zhan's mother, Chen Hui, who was a Great Dou Master. The two met when Mu Chen went out to train, went through hardships together, and eventually got married, which led to the birth of Mu Zhan.
"Zhan'er, aren't you going to introduce these two?"
Chen Hui is a very gentle person. While caring about Mu Zhan, she noticed the two hurried figures behind him.
"Let me introduce you. This is Little Fairy Doctor, and this is Qinglin. They are friends I made during my travels."
"..."
Mu Zhan introduced Xiao Yixian and her companion to his parents one by one, and conveyed his intention to keep them in the Mu family.
"Of course, no problem. We would love to welcome the two lovely ladies."
How could they possibly disagree? They wholeheartedly agreed and couldn't wait for Mu Zhan to bring back more children to expand the Mu family line.
"Aunt...Aunt, Uncle, this...this is a gift we brought for you."
Little Fairy Doctor could barely speak, and Qing Lin didn't even dare to look at Mu Chen and the other person.
"We also have gifts! Thank you!"
Chen Hui accepted the gift with a smile, took Little Fairy Doctor and Qing Lin's hands, and spoke gently.
Little Fairy Doctor and Qinglin are both orphans; their parents left when they were very young. Looking at Chen Hui's gentle smile, the two suddenly felt as if they had found their mother again when they were children, and their eyes welled up with tears.
"What's wrong?"
Chen Hui saw tears welling up in the eyes of the two little girls. She was a little confused about what had happened. She didn't think she was a wicked mother-in-law, so she looked at Mu Zhan, wanting an answer.
"That's how it is..."
Mu Zhan told the two elders about the backgrounds of Little Fairy Doctor and Qing Lin. After listening, Chen Hui's eyes were already wet with tears, and even Mu Chen felt very sorry for the two little girls.
"Don't worry, the Mu family will be your home from now on."
Chen Hui hugged the two little girls with heartache and said.
