Chapter 753 (Beneath a Single Person)

"Alright, if you manage to become Mu Ran's personal maid, I'll arrange for Cang Konghong to come in too."

Hearing Wei Chang's agreement, Tang Wei happily kissed him on the lips. "You promised."

"Mmm."

"What are you two talking about? Still eating! Hurry up and work!" The harsh maidservant yelled haughtily from the side.

Wei Chang and Tang Wei quickly got up and started working.

"Hmph! What's the use of being pretty? Fox-seducer!" The maidservant snorted and walked away.

Tang Wei clenched her teeth; it had been a while since someone scolded her, and she was not used to it. She really wanted to punch her in the head.

Thinking back to the power behind that punch in Tianfu City, she couldn't help but feel excited. When could she appear again? She was really looking forward to such a scene.

This Cangluo Continent is truly a good place.

On that day, Wei Chang and Tang Wei stayed busy until late at night before finally resting.

This task for Your Honor is not simple.

The next morning!

Mu Anguo was preparing to set off with his daughter, Mu Ran.

Today, Mu Ran had also dressed up, looking as pure and beautiful as a lotus flower. It wasn't a disguise; she was naturally such a girl, untainted by the world.

Under the gaze of her mother, Huang Qiuhua, and her younger brother, Mu De, father and daughter sat in the carriage and headed towards the imperial palace.

The imperial palace of the Divine Steppes was somewhat elevated, not in terms of architectural height but in geographical position. You could see the entire palace from a distance, exuding a magnificent atmosphere.

At the palace gate, father and daughter alighted from the carriage and walked in.

People around them also looked at the two, especially when they saw Mu Ran; their expressions changed.

Mu Ran was extremely favoured by the king and was even sent to study at the Supreme Spirit Sect. Now that she suddenly returned, nobody knew what was going on.

"Earl Mu, Ran'er is back," a slightly plump man approached. Although he was a bit chubby, there was a mole at the corner of his eye, giving him an unpleasant feeling. His temples were turning white, and he looked to be around sixty years old.

Mu Anguo quickly paid his respects, "Marquis Ding!"

Following behind him, Mu Ran also saluted, "Marquis Ding."

Ding Wenfu, a great meritorious minister, had an extremely close relationship with the emperor. However, since Mu Ran appeared, there had been some disagreements between the Emperor and Ding Wenfu, leaving him discontent.

"Haven't seen you in three years, and Ran'er has grown taller and more beautiful," Ding Wenfu said with a faint smile. As he smiled, the black mole at the corner of his eye rose slightly, giving off a gloomy feeling.

Mu Ran replied softly, "Marquis Ding is also getting younger and stronger."

"Haha, Ran'er, you still know how to speak so well. Why did you suddenly come back? How was your study at the Supreme Spirit Sect?" Ding Wenfu curiously asked. It would be a joke if she was expelled from the sect.

Mu Ran said gently, "After three years of not seeing my parents, with my master's permission, I came back to see them."

"That's it. You're such a filial child. Earl Mu, you've raised a good daughter," Ding Wenfu praised.

Mu Anguo smiled lightly and did not deny it, accepting the compliment graciously.

As for Ding Wenfu, he felt a bit resentful. He thought to himself, 'You really think highly of yourself, all because of your daughter. If it weren't for her, where would you be today?'

Father relies on daughter, and noble status depends on the daughter's talent.

They ascended the tall steps, and everyone stood in the main hall, waiting for the emperor.

And of course, they were all quietly discussing, discussing about whom...

Of course, it was about Mu Ran.

"The Emperor is here!" A eunuch with a high-pitched voice shouted loudly.

Everyone lowered their heads. A middle-aged man in imperial robes walked out slowly, exuding a dignified aura. When he saw the petite figure below, he immediately smiled.

He directly asked, "Is this my genius?"

According to Mu Ran's current status, she didn't need to bow, as she was already a Heavenly Dao Warrior. Even the king in front of her had to treat her with utmost respect.

But Mu Ran still knelt down and bowed, "Mu Ran pays respects to Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty."

"Indeed, you are my genius. Get up quickly, get up quickly. Let this Emperor have a good look at you. It's been three years since I last saw you," the king, Feng Yong Chang, sat on the throne, abandoning all formalities, and directly called Mu Ran over, showing his attitude towards her.

This made some of the veteran officials feel a bit resentful. They thought it was too much to trust a young girl like this.

Especially Ding Wenfu, who was trusted again by the king after three years. With Mu Ran's return, things changed instantly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Mu Ran stood up slowly, lifting her face.

"Truly my genius, so beautiful after three years. This Emperor is truly delighted today! This Emperor will host a banquet tonight to celebrate your return!" Feng Yong Chang cheerfully announced; this was genuine happiness, not pretence.

He had absolute trust in this extraordinary girl.

After three years of settling down, Mu Ran knew her position well. Serving the ruler was like serving a tiger, and having great achievements could lead to great power. Everyone understood this truth.

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Mu Ran said respectfully, neither arrogant nor servile.

"Mu Ran, how was your study at Supreme Spirit Sect these past three years? Have you become a Warrior?"

In the crowd, Mu Anguo smiled; his daughter's name would spread throughout the entire Northern Chill at this moment!

Mu Ran calmly replied, "Thanks to Your Majesty's blessings, I have successfully become a Heavenly Dao Warrior."

"Heavenly Dao Warrior?" Feng Yong Chang seemed puzzled and then looked at Mu Ran intently.

"Say it again!" Feng Yong Chang exclaimed in excitement, even standing up.

Mu Ran maintained her composure, "As I said, Your Majesty, I am a Heavenly Dao Warrior."

The entire hall fell silent.

Ding Wenfu was dumbfounded.

This Mu Ran had been away for three years! She had transformed from a girl without Qi into a Heavenly Dao Warrior!

How was that possible!

Not only Ding Wenfu but everyone present was astonished, including the emperor!

Feng Yong Chang approached Mu Ran with a look of astonishment and firmly held her hands. "Say it again! What kind of Warrior are you?"

"As I said, Your Majesty, I am a Heavenly Dao Warrior," Mu Ran said gently.

Feng Yong Chang suddenly laughed and then burst into a wild laughter, filling the entire hall.

"Great! Fantastic! My Divine Steppes now have a Heavenly Dao powerhouse! Mu Ran! Your name will be renowned throughout the Northern Chill!" Feng Yong Chang exclaimed with great pride.

In his excitement, Feng Yong Chang resumed his seat on the throne. "Mu Ran! This Emperor will reward you! Whatever you want, this Emperor can fulfil it for you!"

Feng Yong Chang knew what a Heavenly Dao Warrior represented; the entire Divine Steppes would rise because of her! The other two nations were nothing compared to them; they could be unified directly!

"Your Majesty, Mu Ran doesn't want anything, just..."

Mu Anguo in the crowd slightly frowned, knowing what his daughter was about to ask, but luckily, she was interrupted by the emperor.

"Mu Ran! This Emperor bestows upon you the title of Saintess of the Divine Steppes! Beneath a single person, above ten thousand people!"

"Your Majesty!" Ding Wenfu hurriedly spoke up.

Feng Yong Chang's eyebrows furrowed. "When did Marquis Ding submit a petition?"
