"Isn't this too fast?"
Mu Jinyu stared blankly at the Divine Silkworm Princess flying around him, his tone filled with disbelief.
With the help of the jade slip, it didn't take him long to comprehend the "True Dragon Mystic Taoism," but to comprehend the secret technique, boosting his combat power tenfold and transforming into a dragon form, took a whole day.
Yet how long did it take the Divine Silkworm Princess after he passed on "True Dragon Mystic Taoism" to her?
Not even a minute, right?
Almost immediately after he taught her the "True Dragon Mystic Taoism," the little one turned around and comprehended it thoroughly, and used it to initiate the Divine Silkworm Transformation.
No wonder she's the only daughter close to evolving into the Divine Dragon, the Silkworm King's daughter.
This made him, who was always envied by others, start to envy the comprehension ability of the Divine Silkworm Princess.
"By the way, you've always been in the Ice Silkworm form before, haven't you started the Divine Silkworm Transformation yet?"
Mu Jinyu asked curiously, as the Little Ice Silkworm... no, now Little Golden Dragon, was making him a bit dizzy. He reached out to catch her in his hand to stop her from flying around randomly.
"Hiss!"
The Divine Silkworm Princess didn't speak, but being caught in Mu Jinyu's hand, she became somewhat embarrassed and angry, her body shimmering with golden dragon scales that stood up, like sharp needles pricking into Mu Jinyu's palm.
Despite Mu Jinyu's physical body being tempered to near True Dragon level, the dragon scales directly cut through his hand, instantly causing blood to pour down.
Mu Jinyu, in pain, let go of the Divine Silkworm Princess, his face full of a wry smile.
Under the operation of Life Source Energy, the injuries on his hand quickly healed.
"Hmph, that's what you get for meddling with me!"
The Divine Silkworm Princess stood up, arms akimbo, glaring at Mu Jinyu with anger, spoke in a fierce and adorable manner.
Mu Jinyu, with a wry smile, waved his hand towards her and sighed repeatedly, "Alright, alright, I was wrong, I won't dare next time..."
Only then did the Divine Silkworm Princess's anger subside, she replied, "Yes, indeed, I only started the first Divine Silkworm Transformation now. As for why it took you so long to cultivate 'True Dragon Mystic Taoism,' and I did it so quickly, it's not that you're too dumb, it's also because I've cultivated the first half of this secret technique long ago..."
"Oh?" Upon hearing the Divine Silkworm Princess's response, Mu Jinyu pondered for a moment, then with a sudden look of surprise, he asked, "Could it be that the True Dragon Mystic Taoism was left by your father, the King?"
"That's right, you're not stupid," the Divine Silkworm Princess did not avoid the topic, her tone no longer as crestfallen or sad, she spoke calmly, "This secret technique was indeed left by my father. He let me see the first half of it long ago, but didn't let me cultivate the whole thing, saying that if I was destined, I'd naturally get the full version and use it to evolve into the dragon form..."
"I didn't expect it to be destined indeed. I didn't even know what my first Divine Silkworm Transformation would be, and you gave me the complete version of this secret technique, allowing me to transform into the dragon form all at once."
After hearing the Divine Silkworm Princess's words, Mu Jinyu couldn't help but reflect, "So that's how it is, we really are destined."
He was unsure of the original intent of the Silkworm King leaving behind the True Dragon Mystic Taoism, whether it was specifically for the Divine Silkworm Princess or meant to benefit those destined to find it.
Likely the latter, right?
Otherwise, when he met the Silkworm King that day, the King wouldn't have seen him cultivating an incomplete version of "True Dragon Mystic Taoism," and not said anything.
If so, it's no wonder the Silkworm King's backup plan got entangled with the Dragon Vein at Kunlun Ruins, evolving into the Hidden Dragon Conference!
There must have been Silkworm King's intentions, only he couldn't figure it out for the moment.
Understanding why the Little Ice Silkworm could transform into the Dragon Form in a matter of seconds gave Mu Jinyu considerable comfort.
'Hmm, no, I can't secretly call her Little Ice Silkworm anymore. She's no longer in the Ice Silkworm form, should I call her Little Divine Dragon? That doesn't sound quite right either, after all, she's not truly from the Dragon Clan...'
Mu Jinyu muttered to himself a few times, then asked the Divine Silkworm Princess, "Little... ahem, little princess, we've known each other for some time, and yet I don't even know your name?"
"Name?" The Divine Silkworm Princess paused for a moment upon hearing Mu Jinyu's words, then raised her little claw to stroke her chin, pondered and said, "In your current language, my name should be... Yin Li..."
"Yin Li?" Mu Jinyu repeated a few times, smiling and praising, "Hmm, good name."
Yin Li raised her chin slightly and casually asked, "And you?"
Mu Jinyu was stunned and said, "My name, haven't you known it for a long time already?"
"I don't know!" Yin Li's tone suddenly sank, her childish voice filled with displeasure, she spoke angrily, "I've told you my name, how can you not tell me yours!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Jinyu suddenly realized the little one wanted him to introduce himself fully; otherwise, she'd feel it was unfair.
With a smile, Mu Jinyu said, "Alright, alright, I'm Mu Jinyu, Mu like adore, Jin like gold, Yu like jade... Do you understand now?"
"Hmm, that's more like it." Little Yin Li was much less angry, and with a swoosh, she snuggled back into Mu Jinyu's embrace, "I'm going back to cultivate."
Mu Jinyu, amused, shook his head, said nothing, and went out to find Wen Rou.
Half a month later.
Mu Jinyu stayed with Wen Rou in the Chen Family for a few days, then began preparing to leave for Kunlun Ruins.
First, he went to the Demon Slaying City. After searching the citadel turned ruins and debris for several days, he finally managed to find dozens of somewhat intact corpses. After burying them, he played the Soul Soothing Melody for several days in the Demon Slaying City, until the lingering resentment dissipated, before leaving the Wu Kingdom.
Then he returned to the Yan Kingdom, visited the newly constructed Yan Kingdom Royal City, and along with Yan Ran, paid homage to Yan Chengyun and other fallen Yan Kingdom National Scholars before returning to the Heavenly Sword Faction to bid farewell to Yun Ge, Xie Chenkun, Xie Yuan, and others.
He lingered in the Heavenly Sword Faction for several days, getting heavily drunk multiple times with many elders and fellow disciples, before leaving the Heavenly Sword Faction.
Then following clues from the Heavenly Palace, he found Zhuo Yue, asking if he wanted to return to Huaxia with him?
Zhuo Yue was somewhat tempted but eventually shook his head and declined. His relatives and friends had largely aged by then, leaving him with nothing to fondly recall on the other side. He didn't want to return and planned to stay at the Kunlun Ruins, using the Hedao Fruit to strive for the Unity Realm Stage.
Mu Jinyu didn't insist, seeing Zhuo Yue unwilling to leave. After having a drink with him, he then gracefully departed.
Having said goodbye to almost all acquaintances, Mu Jinyu returned to the Chen Family, finally ready to take Wen Rou and Jian Ruyan back to Huaxia.
"You brat, you're leaving, and you still come to exploit your master, truly heartless!"
Mu Shao'ai knew Mu Jinyu was preparing to head back home, temporarily suspending his pursuit of Jing Wang. He also came to the Chen Family, face dark with displeasure, and spoke brusquely.
After speaking, he waved his hand, tossing out five items shining with divine light.
The Chen Family People, feeling the overwhelming aura, all had expressions change slightly, looking at Mu Jinyu with eyes filled with envy.
Because what Mu Shao'ai tossed to Mu Jinyu were all heaven-reaching spiritual treasures!
