Peerless Tang Sect's Splitting Claws Tearing the Sky

"What! You want to go back?"

Early the next morning, in a living room, Mu Qing'er covered her mouth and looked at Ye Ming who came to say goodbye.

Mutao also frowned and asked, "What happened again? Why did I just become a disciple yesterday and have to leave again today?"

Seeing that there was some misunderstanding between the two, Ye Ming explained: "Actually, I came out this time without telling my family. My mother still thinks that I am studying in the college. The school has a holiday once every two months. After calculating the time, I should go back. Yes, otherwise I'm afraid she'll be worried."

"Okay, after all, your father just disappeared. You really shouldn't worry your mother. It just so happens that you can tell your mother about becoming a disciple when you go back this time. If she wants, you can take her over and live with her."

Hearing this, Ye Ming felt a little moved.

"Thank you teacher for your kindness. I will explain the matter to my mother when I go back this time, but..."

After a moment of hesitation, he continued: "It's not necessary to just move here. When my father disappeared, I wanted her to move to the city, but my mother didn't want to. She said she wanted to stay there and wait for my father to come back."

Mu Tao nodded with a clear expression. Since he has accepted Ye Ming as his apprentice, he naturally already has a general understanding of the situation in Ye Ming's family.

"Okay, you don't have to force this kind of thing. How long do you expect to be back this time? I can send someone to escort you."

"That's not necessary. My home is quite close to the border between the two countries. It's just across the Fallen Leaf Mountains. I can be back in about five days."

Ye Ming was a little ashamed. He had never enjoyed this kind of treatment and was a little uncomfortable for a while.

"You don't have to refuse this. Although the Fallen Leaf Mountains have been cleared several times, there may still be some moths that haven't been discovered. Since you have become my disciple, I will naturally ensure your safety."

Hearing Mu Tao's determination, Ye Ming couldn't shirk anymore and had to agree: "Okay, then I'll just follow the teacher's arrangements."

After a few more pleasantries, Ye Ming left. He had to go back to his room to pack some things, leaving only the father and daughter in the room.

At this time, Mu Qing'er was looking at Mu Tao with a pleading expression.

"dad……"

"no"

As if anticipating what his daughter was going to say next, Mu Tao refused without mercy.

"Ah~ Dad, why can't I go out if Ye Ming can go out? I also want to go out to play."

Mu Tao, who couldn't stand his daughter's coquettishness, could only say softly: "Qing'er, be obedient. After all, your situation is too special. It's for your own good that your father won't let you go out. Just like the evil soul master this time, if you are really caught If you are captured, how can your father be able to live up to your mother's entrustment before she left?"

"Dad, once, just this time, okay? Speaking of which, I have never been to the Tianhun Empire. It is also my father's hometown. You can send some people to protect me."

"Besides, this time I was arrested while I was still staying in the mansion. Can you bear to watch me leave before I have a good look at this prosperous world?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? You clearly know that this time is a special situation. No one can hurt you as long as your father is here." Mu Tao wanted to be serious in his tone, but he calmed down after looking at his poor daughter.

"Ah~ I don't care, I'm going out anyway. Dad, think about it, I haven't been out for two years. I'm so bored at home. Do you want me to stay at home for the rest of my life?"

After hearing his daughter's words, Mu Tao was suddenly stunned. He thought carefully that his daughter had never gone out since she woke up. He was busy with official duties and improving his strength, so he never took time to go out with her.

She always wanted to lock her at home, thinking that giving her a spiritual young soul beast would keep her company so she wouldn't be lonely. But in fact, children of normal families at her age have already gone to school, and Qing'er didn't even go to school, let alone go to school. No friends.

Suddenly I thought of Ye Ming again. Maybe his daughter asked him to take him on as a disciple because she wanted to have more playmates in the future.

Seeing her father's sudden silence, the girl suddenly felt a glimmer of hope, so she struck a chord while the iron was hot: "Dad, look at Wangcai, who hasn't seen the outside for a long time. He also feels very lonely. The two of us can help you keep an eye on Ye Ming and prevent him from doing anything." If he doesn't come back, if the apprentice you just accepted runs away the next day, then if word spreads, outsiders will not laugh at you."

"Don't you think so? Wangcai"

Meow~

The cat that was playing on the ground suddenly felt the cold gaze of its owner. It couldn't help but shrink its neck and let out an aggrieved cry.

Mutao finally compromised.

"Okay, okay, little ancestor, can't I promise you, but you don't need to keep an eye on Ye Ming, I believe him, you have another mission?"

"Really, I can go out? Great! Dad, I love you." The girl looked in disbelief at first, then jumped up excitedly, startling the kitten on the ground.

"Okay, I hope you're happy. Don't step on Wangcai. It's a ghost cat after all. Qing'er, you should be nicer to it." Mu Tao said as he picked up the cat and put it in the girl's arms.

"Who's bad to it? I'm usually nice to it, but this guy is very lazy. If it wasn't for what you said, dad, I wouldn't have believed it was a top-notch soul beast like the Nether Civet Cat. It looks like a soul beast at all. No"

Looking at the cat in her arms, the girl felt a little disgusted

"This...should be correct. After all, it was given to me by a ghost civet before it died. Besides its coat color, its appearance is also very similar to that of the ghost civet, so there should be no mistake."

Mutao looked at the plump white cat with some confusion. Its behavior was indeed different from other spirit beasts. Could it be that the mutation had damaged its brain?

Meow!

A certain cat looked at the two of them with wide eyes and disbelief. It felt like it was being shot for no reason...

After Mu Qing'er left, Mu Tao was the only one left in the room.

After thinking for a long time, he called out another person

"City Lord"

This is an old man, wearing a simple robe, bowing to Mu Tao.

"Mr. Li, get up quickly!"

"This time you go to Dou Ling City to meet His Majesty. What is his proposal to me?"

Mutao quickly stopped the old man and helped him onto a seat aside.

"Alas, my subordinates are incompetent and have not been able to convince His Majesty and the ministers. They believe that soul guidance devices cannot pose a threat to titled Douluo in a short period of time, so they are unwilling to invest more in the research of high-level soul guidance devices."

"Mr. Li, there is no need to blame yourself. This result was within my expectations."

Although Mu Tao said he didn't care, his eyes still flickered.

He originally thought that the soul guide could not pose a threat to the top soul masters, but Ye Ming's roar of flames completely changed his mind. The soul guide almost broke Xue Ming's martial soul in two, although there were some The trick was there, but even he didn't have the confidence to catch the attack head-on.

He had been studying the soul guidance device for a while, but the more he studied, the more frightened he became. He found that as an eighth-level soul guidance device, he could not understand the soul guidance device. Even he could understand the structure inside. Li Wuli, at least in a short period of time, he cannot make such an exquisite soul guidance device, which is a bit like the product of the Sun and Moon Empire.

But this also made him even more frightened. If the eighth-level soul guide created by the Sun and Moon Empire could threaten the title ban, then the power of the ninth-level soul guide would be unimaginable!

"City Lord"

Mr. Li on the side saw that Mu Tao had not spoken for a long time and called out tentatively.

"Oh, Mr. Li, I was just thinking about something, I'm sorry."

"It's okay. The city lord is really busy these days. It's all my fault. If I could have left a few days later, the young lady wouldn't have been captured by that group of evil soul masters." The old man said with a face full of self-blame.

"Oh, how can I blame you for this? That group of evil soul masters even deceived me."

"Fortunately, Miss is fine. I hope she won't blame the old slave when I go down to see the princess in the future." As he said this, there were still two lines of tears left on the old man's face.

"Mr. Li, please do not belittle yourself. You know that Qing'er always treated you as an elder during his lifetime. Mr. Li, don't take this matter to heart. After all, it has passed. As long as everything is fine."

Mutao was comforting the old man on the side. This old man was brought here from the palace by his wife. He was a long-established soul saint master. His wife had been his guard since she was a child, so Mu Tao also trusted him very much. Even Mu Tao's subordinates He also entrusted his training to his cronies. It can be said that he is the best person to protect his daughter.

"Mr. Li, I have something to entrust to you this time."

When the old man recovered, Mu Tao officially entered the topic.

"I wonder what the city lord's orders are?"

"Qing'er wants to go out. The evil soul master incident has just calmed down recently. The Imperial City will definitely send someone to inquire. I can't leave in a short time, so I want to ask you to accompany me to protect her safety."

"Old... I will fight to the death, never let down the city lord's expectations, and will never let anyone hurt the young lady!"

The old man wanted to call him Lao slave again, but when he saw that Mutao was a little unhappy, he changed his words.

"Okay, Mr. Li, I believe in you. I can feel more at ease with you here."

……

In the afternoon, Ye Ming, who was about to hit the road, met three people who had been waiting for a long time at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion. At the same time, there was a luxury carriage parked behind him.

The three people were Mu Qing'er, Shi Yong, and a somewhat unfamiliar simple old man.

"You are so slow, you actually made me wait for so long."

The first person to speak was still the little Loli. She had changed into a white outfit and her long white hair was tied into a ponytail. She looked neat and tidy, but she looked a little dissatisfied.

"Wangcai, go and bite him."

meow~

The cat in the girl's arms barked at its owner, as if he would put me down again.

Only then did Ye Ming realize that the girl was holding a fat and white kitten in her arms. The color of the cat's fur was so similar to the girl's clothes that he almost ignored it.

"Who are you?" Ye Ming looked at the way a few people were preparing to travel far and had some guesses in his heart.

"Why, you are only allowed to go out to play but not me?"

"But does the teacher know that you are going out?"

"Of course the city lord knows, don't worry, my child, I will ensure Miss Qing'er's safety along the way."

It was the old man who spoke, and he looked at Mu Qing'er fondly.

And Ye Ming also found that Mu Qing'er was very well-behaved in front of the old man, and Shi Yong's attitude was even more respectful, so he guessed that the old man's identity might be a little unusual, so he said respectfully: "Since there are seniors who guarantee the safety of the young lady, then the juniors can rest assured."

"Hey, surnamed Ye, what do you mean by this? Why do I need you to worry about this young lady? I tell you, my mission this time is to keep an eye on you in case you don't come back. Dad specifically told me that if you don't come back, I will Your legs are broken”

"That's not what I meant..." Although it was obvious at a glance that the girl's words were full of loopholes, Ye Ming was in a very good mood today, so he continued to act with her.

The old man on the side just smiled and looked at the two people arguing without urging them.

After a while, everyone got on the carriage and rushed out of the city...
