This old man with a white beard sure knows how to cry—snot and tears all over, claiming he has a 100-year-old mother at home and a newborn baby. He doesn't want to do such things, but he was forced into it. If he doesn't comply, others would threaten his family.
Mu Qiuniang: "..."
Do I look dumb and easily fooled?
"The incident during the day—was it your doing?" Mu Qiuniang asked.
"Yes, yes, yes, it was my doing!" The white-bearded man dared not evade her question and quickly admitted, "This has nothing to do with my elder brother; it was me who took action. We received a job targeting Jiang Nuo, but we didn't expect Jiang Nuo to be lucky—he descended quickly and avoided disaster before anything could happen. Then another person ascended, and that's when trouble began… Immortal, I swear this little one isn't a friend of the great Jiang Nuo and your immortal self. Otherwise, even if you gave me ten times the courage, I wouldn't dare lay a finger on a friend of the Immortal!"
