Mu Rouxuan might have been immature, but she made an effort not to hinder others and claid responsibility. However, her strong prejudice against Qiaoqiao left Mu Xingchen with a growing headache.
He couldn't help but reach out and pinch the area between his brows. The situation had taken an unexpected turn. Back ho, their mother had at least served as a diator, maintaining a superficial peace between Rouxuan and Qiaoqiao.
Little did he anticipate that things would escalate to such an incompatible state.
Assisting Mu Rouxuan to a side where they could find shelter from the rain of arrows, Mu Xingchen sat down on a large rock. It provided a temporary shield from the projectiles above.
Mu Rouxuan panted heavily and whispered to Mu Xingchen, "Big Bro, I-I just need to obtain one of the few sacred tools in the Sun and Moon Wheels. With it, I can fully recover this broken body."
"It's said that the Sun and Moon Wheels were ford from the destructive power of the void during the creation of heaven and earth. It's not an exaggeration to say they possess the power of the sacred spirit."
"Once I secure one, whether it's the Sun Wheel or the Full Moon Wheel, it can elevate to a higher level, healing all my injuries."
Mu Xingchen looked at Mu Rouxuan in surprise and spoke in a hushed tone, "That's a secret treasure of the temple. Are you sure you can acquire it?"
"The temple has entered and left the secret realm countless tis over the years. Have you ever seen anyone obtain both wheels?"
"So, what does that an? It suggests that the treasure is ant for the fated person. I don't ask for it," Mu Rouxuan explained quietly. "Big Bro, as long as you help obtain this treasure, it's like saving my life."
"But if you claim the treasure is sentient and went looking for the fated person, how do you know you are that fated person?" Mu Xingchen couldn't help but express shock at Mu Rouxuan's optimistic belief.
Where did Rouxuan derive such confidence? She seed convinced that entering this secret realm would guarantee her acquisition of this pair of secret treasures.
"I can't guarantee anything," Mu Xingchen said calmly, his patience with his younger sister nearing its limit.
By most standards, Mu Rouxuan seed a bit too pretentious.
"Big Bro, I don't need you to make any promises. I just need you to promise to help , Second Attendant." Mu Rouxuan tightly held one of Mu Xingchen's hands and looked at him with fervent eyes.
"A-As long as you promise that you will treat fairly in front of the secret treasure, and you won't take her side but mine!"
Mu Xingchen was dumbstruck.
"Big Bro, although she's from the sa mother as you, I-I'm your biological brother and sister who grew up with you. My mom took care of you for many years."
"Big Bro, ask yourself honestly. Since she ca back, has she provided any help? There's nothing positive at all. Not only that, she's causing trouble for our eldest branch, making us a laughingstock for the people from the clueless third branch."
"She chased after her biological father to ask for debts and forced her Stepmother to hand over her assets. She doesn't acknowledge any sibling relationship with you or ."
"Look at her. She still hasn't honored our ancestors."
Mu Rouxuan earnestly advised, "Big Bro, her surna is Qiao, not Mu!"
"She's not our family. Look at her. There's hostility in her bones. She's completely rebellious! She'll never unite with our Mu family in this life."
