Mu Fan and Qing Yuan replied in unison, sitting on either side of her zither case.
“Senior Nephew Mu, to put it straightforwardly, we invited you this time to discuss your safety.”
Mu Rongxue knew that the two of them were wary of her, so there was no need to pretend. She went straight to the point to seize the initiative.
“Senior Nephew, do you know that opportunities and dangers coexist? Exceptional talents bring not only success and fame but also life and death crises.”
“Mu Fan is foolish, please enlighten me, Commander.”
Feeling the unexplained glances focused on him, Mu Fan felt a jolt in his heart and subconsciously stroked the scar on his arm.
“Senior Nephew, there is no need to panic. As I just said, your master is my close friend.”
“Since he sent you to the barracks and entrusted you to our care, as the Security Camp Commander, I will not let him down. I will do my utmost to protect you within the scope of my duties.”
Mu Rongxue sat upright, her hand resting on the zither case, exuding an elder's demeanor, a perfect balance of kindness and authority, leading the conversation: “As for your remarkable constitution, have you ever felt it, and do you fully understand the hidden dangers?”
“Cough cough.”
Mu Fan did not expect Mu Rongxue to be so straightforward, her words clear and thorough, completely different from her gentle and soft appearance.
He found it difficult to cope for a moment, unsure of how to respond.
“Commander Mu, Senior Brother Mu's physique is indeed unique, with his scars healing faster than ordinary people, but is there anything wrong with that?”
Seeing the awkwardness in his eyes, Qing Yuan's gaze flickered, pretending to be ignorant and inquiring innocently, helping him resolve his embarrassment.
“Do you two know that there is a miraculous herb in this world called Undying Immortal Grass? If a fortunate person obtains it, they can refine it into a Spirit Pill. Once consumed, they will develop an Indestructible Divine Body.”
Mu Rongxue paid no more attention to Qing Yuan, her focused gaze still fixated on Mu Fan, carrying a hard-to-describe heat.
“The Indestructible Divine Body is the pinnacle of body refinement sought by all cultivators.”
“If one possesses it, they can regenerate severed limbs, re-form flesh and blood, merge severed heads and necks, and essentially achieve immortality. As long as their soul lives, they will share the same life span as the heavens and earth.”
“However…”
The conversation took a turn, her gaze darkened, and her expression became solemn and concerned: “Good fortune comes with misfortune. The emergence of the Indestructible Divine Body will inevitably attract the covetous desires of the world.”
“A low-ranking disciple with an Indestructible Divine Body is, in the eyes of scheming individuals, the ideal vessel for body possession. Once targeted, their life is in great peril.”
“Commander speaks the truth. Mu Fan has already experienced the dangers of the world. If it weren't for the protection of a powerful person, I would have long lost my life and ceased to exist.”
At this point, Mu Fan's emotions were complicated, his gaze momentarily lost.
Involuntarily, the image of that night's life-saving encounter, the stunning woman in red, resplendent and peerless, appeared before his eyes.
The jade pendant hanging on his chest seemed to sense something at the moment he recalled his savior, and it trembled slightly.
The barely noticeable vibration caused his breath to catch and heart to race suddenly.
“Senior Nephew Mu is insightful. Since you understand your current situation, I will not say more.”
Mu Rongxue did not notice Mu Fan's brief change in demeanor, but sitting across from him, Qing Yuan's eyes brightened.
Her gaze lingered thoughtfully on the front of his robe, where the jade pendant hung. Her eyebrows raised in a gentle, shallow smile.
“Well then, since you two have made enemies because of me.”
Mu Rongxue was still immersed in her thoughts, secretly planning: “I will grant you both a favor. You can find a suitable location to establish a cave dwelling in the valley near the barracks, where you can temporarily avoid the whirlpool of conflicts.”
