Bai Qian's explanation seemed weak and powerless. Perhaps she really didn't mean it that way, but her actions did put Zimu in a dilemma.

As the young master of the Sujin clan, Zimu originally shouldered the great responsibility of the clan and could not lend the Soul-Binding Lamp easily, otherwise it would be unfilial and unkind to his parents and clansmen who had died in the battle.

It might even be over-interpreted by some people as being disloyal and unjust to the Celestial Clan.

Zi Mu looked at Bai Qian's panic, but his heart was calm.

In the drama, Bai Qian was spoiled by a group of people and became lawless, looking down on everyone, and was protected by the Bai family without any reason. She saw it clearly.

Zi Mu was not surprised at all that he said those words without considering other people's feelings for his own purposes.

In this war, countless lives were lost, but she only thought about using the Soul-Bound Lamp to resurrect her master and ignored the suffering of others.

Bai Zhen watched his sister being silenced by a little kid like Zi Mu, and immediately said with a bad face: "Si Yin is just concerned about Lord Mo Yuan and sees hope for his resurrection. Master Su Jin's remarks are probably too much."

"I've heard for a long time that in this vast world, the Qingqiu Bai family is the most protective of their own shortcomings. They always help their relatives but not others. Today I see that it is indeed true."

Bai Zhen frowned, feeling that what Zimu said was not a good thing.

"Just now I heard you call this Supreme Immortal Seventeen, and I thought you should be the seventeenth disciple of Supreme God Mo Yuan."

Bai Qian didn't know what Zi Mu was talking about, but she still answered honestly: "Yes."

"Do you want to know why the other immortals who have been with Lord Mo Yuan longer than you haven't spoken up?"

Bai Qian turned her head to look at the other brothers, then looked at Zimu again, waiting for her next words.

"Because they have brains and won't say or do anything that would cause trouble to others."

"You look quite old, at least much older than me. Now that you've spoken, you should have thought about the consequences."

Zi Mu's voice became increasingly cold: "Please reflect on what happened today, Immortal, and do not cause unnecessary trouble to others because of your own selfishness in the future."

After saying that, Zimu no longer paid attention to Bai Qian and turned away with Rongtuan.

The sound of silver bells rang again, as if telling the tragedy of this war.

The soldiers of the Celestial Clan looked at Zimu's departing back, and the leaders of the Sujin Clan branches were also full of admiration for the young master.

They knew that Zimu's decision was correct. She stuck to her principles and upheld the dignity of the Celestial Clan.

"Didn't your family and tribe die in the war? Aren't you cruel?"

Bai Zhen had no time to cover Bai Qian's mouth. After he reacted, he knocked Bai Qian unconscious with a palm strike.

Zi Mu had never seen such a stupid person. It would have been fine if he was spoiled by his family, but he had noble bloodline and was a descendant of the ancient gods, so no one dared to mess with him.

If a character with this kind of personality were put into a palace fighting drama, he would not survive more than three episodes unless he was an important character.

Zi Mu turned around and a stream of spiritual power flew quickly towards Bai Qian.

Bai Zhen didn't have time to stop it. He then looked down at his sister and found that this spiritual power was just forcing Bai Qian to stay awake. Only then did Bai Zhen breathe a sigh of relief.

"Humph, what the Immortal said just now is really ridiculous. The culprit of this war has been pinned down under the Donghuang Bell. Does the Immortal want me to continue to let the few remaining members of the Sujin tribe go up and fight with the Yi tribe?"

"This...Princess Su Jin, no, Young Master, your Su Jin clan is fighting for the Celestial Clan..."

"I know what you want to say, Your Highness. My Sujin clan is good at fighting. For the sake of the Celestial Clan and the lives of all creatures in the four seas and eight wastelands, even if we fight to the last man, we will have no regrets. So Your Highness does not need to pity me."

"Hiss——" Lian Song, who was always good at making jokes, didn't know how to talk to the little girl in front of him at this moment, but he saw admiration in the eyes of the Celestial Clan's soldiers.

"How the Bai family's gods protect their shortcomings has nothing to do with me, and don't jump in front of me. Lord Mo Yuan... I can't help. Today's battle is a cycle of cause and effect. The past is the cause and the present is the result. The gods and immortals should take care of themselves."

Bai Qian stood there, her heart filled with regret.

She realized she had acted impulsively without considering the consequences.

She looked at the direction where Zimu was going away, and secretly made up her mind to be more cautious in the future and not bring trouble to others again.

Bai Zhen also remained silent. He realized that his eagerness to protect his sister almost put Bai Qian in a bigger predicament.

He suddenly felt that it was not right for his family to be too indulgent towards his younger sister. Bai Zhen secretly made up his mind to treat his younger sister rationally in the future.

Zimu walked to the front of the Sujin tribe's team and forced a smile: "My fellow uncles, I'm in the tribe, waiting for you to come home."

"Yes, my lord."

This scene suddenly made the soldiers present jealous. The Kunlunxu disciples and the three princes of the Celestial Clan, who watched the Su Jin clan leader die heroically, remained silent.

The fairies along the Ruoshui River silently watched the small red figure holding the lamp and leaving with a strange beast that looked like a deer but was not a deer, until the silver bell and the figure disappeared completely.

------------------------

After returning to the clan, Zimu gathered the old, weak, women and children who were unable to go to the battlefield, and hung white flags in the ancestral hall according to the custom of the Sujin clan.

Looking at the rows of extinguished life lamps, the remaining tribesmen could no longer hold back and sobbed quietly.

"Young Master, you shouldn't have gone to Ruoshui."

"My people died in battle, and their bodies will be buried in the Wuwang Sea. I should bring their heroic spirits home."

After Zi Mu finished speaking, he used his mental power to check the huge clan territory of the Su Jin clan. He sighed and thought that it was really troublesome. He also had to be on guard against the Heavenly Monarch. After all, the clan territory of the Su Jin clan was not small and it was one of the few rich places besides Qingqiu.

--------------------------

Two months later, Zi Mu was taken to the Ninth Heaven by Le Xu as expected.

Emperor Donghua and others who were discussing matters tacitly stopped talking when they saw Le Xu walking into the hall with a baby girl.

After Le Xu bowed to the Heavenly Sovereign on the throne, she bowed her head and said gently to Zi Mu, "Go, kneel down and pay homage to the Heavenly Sovereign."

Zi Mu looked at Le Xu speechlessly with a face that said, "Are you kidding me?" He took two steps forward, raised his hands, bowed slightly to the Lord of Heaven, and said, "My little girl greets the Lord of Heaven."

Emperor Donghua, who was sitting on the side, looked at the little girl in front of him with great interest and thought that this little girl was very interesting.

Le Xu looked at Zi Mu with horror. The little girl just now clearly said that she had learned the etiquette of the Celestial Clan, but she didn't expect that there would be trouble now.

Tianjun was slightly stunned, but thinking of the ancestors of the Sujin clan who kept silent, he raised his chin with dignity and said, "No need to be polite, come here."

Zimu stood up, looked at the kindly-looking Emperor, nodded, and walked to his side with the clanking sounds.

Emperor Donghua watched the little girl walk up to the high platform with the jingling of silver bells on her body.
