Xilin's face was pale, her eyes full of panic, and various thoughts flashed through her mind.

Finally, faced with Tie Xue receiving the Dark Gold Bracelet and standing on the flying shuttle with killing intent, seeming ready to rush over and slaughter her at any moment, Xilin was utterly scared.

She clutched her chest tightly, and the twelve light wings on her back unfurled, making her figure vanish in an instant like a shooting star in front of them.

"She... ran away?"

Gu Xiyan and Mei Yinxue stared blankly at this scene, murmuring in disbelief.

Originally, when they encountered Xilin blocking the way and saw that she had the power of the Unity Realm Stage, they expected a fierce battle!

Even though they felt they wouldn't be a match for Xilin, they had decided that even if they were to die, they would die in front of Mu Jinyu!

But unexpectedly, Xilin was scared off just like that?

"Pfft..."

About a minute after Xilin left, Mu Jinyu, who had been standing majestically on the flying shuttle, couldn't hold on anymore. His face turned pale as he spat out a mouthful of blood!

"Jinyu?!"

"Are you okay?!"

The women's hearts that had just relaxed tensed up again. They hurried to Mu Jinyu's side, supporting him and giving him healing pills, their expressions full of worry.

"I'm fine..."

After taking a few healing pills, Mu Jinyu's complexion improved significantly, no longer as pale as gold paper. Lying in Mei Yinxue's arms, he shook his head slightly at the others and forced a smile.

"Don't worry, my body can withstand that hit, it's just a bit painful. That wicked woman is truly no good..."

Mu Jinyu said, gritting his teeth with a curse, then he urged Gu Xiyan to quickly pilot the shuttle back to Yinlong Mountain.

"Alright."

Gu Xiyan immediately agreed, steering the flying shuttle in the direction of Huaxia.

On the way, Wen Rou helped Mu Jinyu wipe the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth, curiously and concernedly asking, "Little Mu, why did that woman get scared off just now? Was it because you could handle Sister Xiyan's heaven-reaching spiritual treasure?"

She felt it was strange; it shouldn't have been like that!

Mu Jinyu smiled and replied, "Of course not, didn't I just say? The last restriction in her body hasn't been lifted. I deliberately said I could make the restriction activate and cause her to drop dead, but my cultivation is currently almost null, so naturally, I can't do that. I first forced myself to take her hit, then had Yin Li secretly plot against her, making her think my cultivation wasn't wasted and that there was still a problem with the restriction I placed on her, still capable of resolving her!"

"That's what scared her off!"

Mu Jinyu said with some pride.

"Chirp chirp chirp..."

Yin Li flew in front of Mu Jinyu, waving its claws as if to claim credit.

Mu Jinyu laughed, "I know, I know, I'll definitely reward you well when we get back..."

"Oh, I see..."

The women suddenly understood after hearing Mu Jinyu's explanation, looking at Mu Jinyu with adoration and at Yin Li with gratitude.

Thinking, if it weren't for Mu Jinyu's cleverness or Yin Li's presence, they might not have avoided a battle with Xilin. With Yin Li having the Unity Realm Stage, even if they all joined forces, they might not be Xilin's match.

Fortunately, in the end, Xilin was forced to retreat without engaging...

The women felt a wave of relief.

Afterwards, Mei Yinxue asked about Xilin's origins.

After all, when Mu Jinyu captured Xilin, they were in retreat, and soon after that, they learned about the Great Xia Martial Pavilion's anomaly and discovered Chu Tiance's sinister plan to kidnap all of humanity. Mu Jinyu had been busy outside and hadn't mentioned Xilin to them.

They only knew that Mu Jinyu had once teamed up with Mu Shao'ai to subdue a person from another world, but the details were unclear.

Mu Jinyu didn't hide anything from them; there was no need. He only hadn't mentioned it due to being too busy.

Soon, Mu Jinyu recounted his experiences and encounters with Xilin to the women.

After all, their experiences together were relatively few, so he finished quickly.

"Canglan Realm? Celestial Maiden of the Divine Race..."

"Xilin? Power above the Void Breaking Realm?"

"She was beaten black and blue by you? Accidentally stuck her hand in a toilet, then you chopped off her arm?"

"..."

The women were all somewhat dumbfounded as they listened to Mu Jinyu.

"Surprised? I was also quite surprised when I first heard about Canglan Realm..." Mu Jinyu laughed.

"No..."

Mei Yinxue shook her head and said, "I finally understand why she hates you so much, and why she immediately wanted to take advantage of your trouble and kill you!"

"Hmm!" Even Wen Rou nodded deeply, "Little Mu, you were too cruel to her; you can't bully women like that..."

Yu Linglong also nodded, "Yes, if it were me, I'd also want to fight you to the death!"

"..."

Listening to their chatter, Mu Jinyu even started to feel sympathy for Xilin.

He couldn't help but say, "Hey, hey, hey, you're feeling sorry for the wrong person, aren't you?"

"If it were some other woman, that'd be one thing, but she's a person from a foreign domain, an alien of sorts, and she harbors malice against humanity. I think I was justified in treating her harshly!"

"If she didn't still have some use, I would've killed her back then, to prevent a disaster!"

Mu Jinyu spoke with a calm detachment, laced with a faint killing intent, without a trace of guilt.

In the Canglan Realm, humans and the Divine Race were always at odds, even wanting to enslave humans. Why would he feel guilty about Xilin's situation?

The women heard Mu Jinyu's words and thought it made sense.

After all, Xilin wasn't a normal person and didn't deserve sympathy.

Still, she is indeed beautiful...

It's surprising Mu Jinyu could resist such temptation and treat her so harshly?

That really surprised them.

Soon, under Gu Xiyan's accelerated piloting, the flying shuttle successfully returned from the Vatican to Yinlong Mountain.

Back at Yinlong Mountain, although Mu Jinyu felt he was fine, the women still insisted he rest and refrain from moving around.

Meanwhile, Yin Li, having performed great deeds this trip, was rewarded by Gu Xiyan, Wen Rou, and the women who brought out some rare fourth-grade spiritual medicines Mu Jinyu had stored to personally make ice cream for her.

Indeed, after living on Earth for a while, Yin Li was no longer satisfied with ordinary ice cream.

She started eating ice cream made from spiritual medicines.

And these spiritual medicines couldn't be low-grade ones, nor could they taste bad.

So she often eyed the fourth-grade spiritual medicines in Mu Jinyu's storage bag, frequently demanding he take them out to make ice cream for her. It was just that Mu Jinyu cherished those medicines and didn't often relent.

This time, after Yin Li saved his life on Mount Song and then traveled a great distance to help with matters in the Vatican, secretly aiding in the confrontation with Xilin, Mu Jinyu naturally wouldn't refuse her anymore.

Even if he gave her all the spiritual medicines he had, he wouldn't mind.

Time passed in a flash, and three more days had gone by.

The injuries Mu Jinyu sustained from taking Xilin's rage-imbued hit with his physical body on that day gradually began to heal.

His cultivation was half destroyed, and his life source energy almost depleted, so he wouldn't recover as swiftly as before when he got injured.

However, merely surviving was a blessing; Mu Jinyu didn't regret it.

On this day, Bai Xiaosheng returned, bringing Xu Hong and Lin Fei to check on Mu Jinyu.
