Volume 1: Phoenix Nirvana, Reborn from the Flames Chapter 5: What is it that you dare not?

  The one who came in later, wearing a light yellow long dress, had a face that looked similar to Qing Ge's, beautiful and lovely, but with slightly higher cheekbones, making her look a bit sharp. This was Mu Zi Ru. She looked at the person holding the water bucket, seemingly without any reaction towards Qing Ge. After looking for a moment, she burst out laughing and said: "Look, this divorce letter has made her like an idiot, not even a single reaction!"

  Two people taking turns speaking one sentence each, laughing happily by themselves, completely disregarding Qing Ge.

  Too noisy!

  Qing Ge's eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and a murderous aura gradually gathered in her eyes as she coldly stared at the two sisters standing at the gate, laughing and flailing about.

  A formless pressure gradually emanated from the air, enveloping the entire courtyard. Mu Zi Ru and Qin Rong Rong suddenly stopped in their tracks, their eyes shifting to the boy standing in the yard. Qin Rong Rong's mind was racing, "Cousin, look over there!"

  What a handsome boy! Delicate features, with elegant and proud eyes, at such a young age, it's easy to mistake his gender, but he won't, with a heroic spirit between his eyebrows, very masculine!

  Mupurple looked over, but in her heart, she just praised a sentence. She took a glance at the boy's outfit, tattered and worn-out clothes, mud on his face, and some red and green things. He was dressed so shabbily that he didn't look like a child from an official or wealthy family. Suddenly, she sneered: "Muclear Song, you must be heartbroken after being dumped by the Crown Prince's son, and now you've picked up a little beggar? He looks just as useless as you, dirty and stinky! Are you planning to raise him as your own son? What a pity, the Crown Prince doesn't want you at all. You're just trying to comfort yourself by picking up this little beggar!"

  As soon as the words came out, the already chilly air in the courtyard became even colder. The boy's eyes flashed with a dark light, and he coldly swept his gaze over Mu Ziyu, wanting to kill this woman if not for his current special circumstances!

  Muzi was suddenly shut up by the cold air in the boy's eyes, what a scary little kid, just looking at him makes me feel very dangerous, his whole body emits an aura like October frost! How can there be such a strange child!

  She came to bother Qing Ge today, and didn't even care about how the boy in the yard had arrived. She turned her head to look at Qing Ge, who was standing quietly in the yard with a cold and stern expression. Her back, which had always been slightly curved, was now straight as a pen, and she looked like a completely different person, exuding an aura of coldness. Was this really the same Mu Qing Ge whose eyes would flash with fear when they saw them? Today's her was so different from before!

  Qing Ge's eyebrows rose coldly as she walked over step by step, carrying a wooden bucket. Her voice was light, but with an unmistakable chill, "You just said, who is the waste?"

  That cold and piercing gaze, along with the oppressive atmosphere, suddenly chilled the air in the courtyard. An invisible pressure spread out, causing Mu Ziyu and Qin Rongrong's hearts to skip a beat at the same time, such an overbearing aura!

  "You... you're the one who's always like that!" Mu Ziyu was startled and took a step back, but in the past decade or so, she had always been the one bullying Mu Qingge, never the other way around. She immediately stood up straight, lifted her chin and continued to scold.

  The clear water poured down, the wooden bucket facing Muzi Ru's head hair was washed away! The icy water poured from top to bottom, washing Muzi Ru's bun into a mess, and the powder on her face fell off in patches of white and green, making her look like a night demon at midnight.

  Always being spoiled by the Mu family, Mu Ziyu's temper flared up immediately. As the eldest daughter of the Mu family, she was used to being domineering at home and wouldn't think twice about it. Moreover, in the past half month, she had been training in etiquette in the palace and was constantly compared unfavorably to that number one talent, He Xueying, which made her furious. She glared at the usual target of her anger and scolded loudly:

  "Qing Ge, how dare you casually bring a beggar into the house! And you even splashed water on me, you good-for-nothing, cheap thing! If I don't beat you for three days, you won't understand what discipline is. You really think Mu Fu is your home? Let me tell you, you're just a bastard born out of wedlock!" As she spoke, she suddenly rushed up and slapped Qing Ge with her hand!

  Bang!

  The crisp sound of applause was especially clear in the night.

  Everyone in the yard widened their eyes. Was it just now that the usually timid Mu Qing Ge had made a move? That cowardly and weak little miss who couldn't even fight back or retort?

  Mei Zi stared at Qing Ge with a shocked face, her eyes wide like a cow's, and after two seconds of silence, she covered her swollen face, finally reacting, shrieking like a slaughtered pig, shouting: "Mei Qing Ge, you, you, dare to hit..."

  The angry shout hadn't even left his lips when he felt a gust of wind sweep across his face, followed immediately by another wave of intense pain!

  Bang!

  Another crisp sound!

  Regardless of others' expressions, Qing Ge nonchalantly shook her wrist and gazed at Mu Zi Ru, whose face was swollen like a pig's head after being slapped, "You said I didn't dare to, right? Now my face is symmetrical, do you think I dared?"

  In the night wind, a coarse linen garment fluttered, and Qing Ge's sleeves danced, standing upright with an unyielding aura, the cold air emanating from her body froze the air by several degrees.

  She cast a sideways glance at Mu Zi Ruo, let out a cold snort, and hit her! Mu Qing Ge had never allowed anyone to hit her before!

  Seeing Zong Zi being hit, Qin Rong looked incredulous. This was the same Mu Qing Ge who even when he was a genius in the past, would not dare to utter a word when bullied, yet today he actually dared to raise his hand and slap someone!

  Too unbelievable!

  "How dare you hit my sister!" Qin Rongrong suddenly pulled out the long whip from her waist and swung it at Qing Ge.

  Sister? Qing Ge looked at Qin Yingying with disdain, who had a pretentious face. Mu Zi Ru was her sister, wasn't Mu Qing Ge also her sister? Qin Yingying followed Mu Zi Ru around like a lapdog every day, wasn't it just because Mu Zi Ru was the legitimate daughter of the Mu family?

  The long whip swung through the air, after all, she was the daughter of a martial arts family, and the long whip still had some power when it was swung out. However, in Qing Ge's eyes, this bit of strength was nothing at all.

  Qin Rongrong looked at Qing Ge in front of her, this whip was swung with all her might, and it would definitely beat the useless thing half to death. Anyway, today she had already beaten up Mu Zi Ru, so even if something happened later, she could still explain herself to her uncle Mu Zong Pei!

  It's easy to calculate in one's mind, but the reality is often not as wished!

  Qing Ge gazed at the long whip that refused to retreat, her footsteps light and agile. With a single leap, she dodged it, and with one hand, she barely grasped the tip of the whip. Clearly, she should have been standing not far away, but in an instant, her figure was already right in front of him.

  Qin Rongrong was shocked and hastily tried to retreat, but it was too late. Qing Ge slapped her wrist with his palm and snatched the long whip from her!

  "How dare you......" Holding her sore wrist, Qin Rongrong's face was full of incredulity.

  Here is the translation:

  "Again with this line! Can't you come up with something new? The boy standing beside him flashed a thoughtful look in his eyes, and coldly said, such a mediocre woman actually dares to challenge Mu Qing Ge. With her personality, they're going to have a hard time!"

  As expected, Qing Ge's long whip swept across, and Qin Rongrong let out a loud cry!

  This whip, solid and heavy, was fiercely lashed onto her mouth! Instantly, blood flowed freely! Her face was a mess, with tears and blood mixed together, what a pitiful sight!

  "You... dare... uh..." Qin Rongrong slammed heavily onto the ground, shouting at Qing Ge.

  Too forgetful, and yet still talking nonsense.

  The long whip danced in the air again, and with a sudden fierce lash, Qin Rongrong was rolled up and dragged over, then smashed to the ground, causing her internal organs to shrink into a ball, the pain making her entire body numb, her eyes almost bulging out, her face twisted, and her veins standing out.

  "Do you still want to test my courage?!" In the piercing night voice, arrogant words floated around, and Qing's long eyelashes swept over Qin Yingying who was lying on the ground with a calm and indifferent gaze.

  She sings a clear song, when does she have the courage? As long as she wants, she dares! Can't let them shout here!

  Talk slowly, act quickly, all these movements are just a few seconds!

  As soon as Mu Zi reacted, she saw Qin Rongrong shrink into a ball, her eyes meeting Qing Ge's cold and stern gaze. Her heart skipped a beat, but she refused to show weakness!

  It's also been them bullying Mu Qingge all these years! How could she be afraid just because of this one time?

  This ordinary grass bag is singing a clear song, how did it become so fierce!

  "Mu Qing Ge, you'd better be careful, I'm going to tell Father and Mother, let them beat you to death..."

  A cold glint flashed in Qing's eyes, and the long whip in his hand swung fiercely, cracking down from mid-air, the tip of the whip savagely lashing across Mu Ziyu's face. Instantly, Mu Ziyu rolled to the ground in pain, shrieking loudly: "My face, my face!"

  "Mo Zi Ru, what do you think you are! How dare you threaten me here!" Mo Bing's voice was as cold as ice, with an absolute arrogance. Qing Ge's eyes were filled with absolute disdain. From assassin to mercenary, she had always been treated with respect. How did Mo Zi Ru have the qualifications to yell at her?!
