Immortality: Starting with a grave, I'm invincible when burying corpses.

The liquor flowed down my throat and into my stomach, but it brought no intoxication whatsoever, and even the taste of the liquor itself was almost gone.

Under the starry sky, Mu An raised his right hand, peering through the gaps between his fingers at the starry sky, his gaze drifting to a distant and unknown place.

He leaned on the railing and gazed into the distance, watching the fleeting starlight travel all the way until it crossed the border of the Nine Realms and entered the boundless sea of ​​boundaries.

A picture book was laid out in front of him.

Under the starry sky, a family of four sat together, eating hot pot and watching shooting stars streak across the sky.

……

"Sir! Sir! The star shower just now was so beautiful! I thought I was going to never see it again, but thanks to the True Lord, a miracle occurred, allowing us to witness this magnificent star shower..."

"Huh???!!! What's that smell of alcohol? Sir! Why are you drinking alone again! And such strong liquor at that!"

Mu An, leaning against the railing, did not turn her head, but murmured softly.

"An ancient legend says that wishes made under a shooting star will be blessed by the stars. Did you and your brother make any wishes?"

The highly engaging topic immediately caught Qinghe's attention. After reaching out and taking the wine pot from Mu'an's hand, Qinghe smiled.

"Of course I've agreed, sir. And you?"

"Good."

……

After that day, Qinghan became much more respectful towards Mu'an.

Although there was no evidence, Qinghan instinctively felt that what happened that night was not a miracle at all, but rather the work of this Mr. Mu.

Even so, Qinghan was still filled with doubts.

Was the miracle that night something that ordinary cultivators could really do?

To make a storm covering hundreds of miles dissipate in an instant—only a terrestrial deity could possess such immense power to change the world.

As far as Qing Han knew, even those powerful cultivators at the Refining Spirit Returning to Emptiness Realm would never have such a method.

Only a terrestrial deity could accomplish such a miracle.

The Great Spirit Empire has only nine terrestrial immortals in total, and among them, there is only one terrestrial immortal with the surname Mu: Emperor Mu Yong.

Although there are geniuses among the royal family members of these generations, because their cultivation time is still short, the most powerful one can only reach the realm of refining spirit and returning to emptiness, which is still far from being a terrestrial immortal.

If Mr. Mu is truly a celestial being, then who exactly is he?

If he is not a member of the Mu family royal family, why would he say that his surname is Mu?

Is the name Mu An real or fake?

Or perhaps His Majesty intentionally concealed the news, hiding the fact that a new terrestrial immortal had broken through in the royal family?

According to family records, the number of Heavenly and Earthly Fruit positions is limited, and the birth of each terrestrial deity will be known to other terrestrial deities. Is it really possible to conceal the existence of terrestrial deities?

If His Majesty did not intentionally conceal this, then what is the story behind Mr. Mu?

In Qing Han's eyes, Mu An was shrouded in mystery and full of doubts.

But he also knew that things had come to this point, and regardless of whether he and his sister were really involved in some major event, based on their experiences over the past few months, they could no longer break free from their connection with Mu An.

Two junior cultivators from the Qing family, who were so close to a terrestrial immortal, would naturally be labeled accordingly.

If something really goes wrong later, no matter how much the brother and sister explain, it will all be in vain.

Having figured these things out, Qinghan became more respectful and no longer as timid as before. Instead, he cherished this hard-won opportunity and seized every chance to learn from Mu'an.

Since you've already been forced to "take sides," then don't be timid or hesitant.

To receive personal guidance from a celestial being is a privilege few in the world can enjoy.

This is an opportunity that should absolutely not be missed.

If we can seize this opportunity, it is not impossible for us to regain the position of the head of the Qing family.

Defy fate and change your destiny now.

……

Winter of the year 170 in the Gregorian calendar.

After half a year, the Qingyun Trading Company's flying boat finally caught sight of the outline of the Starfall Continent.

After traversing the vast and boundless Sea of ​​Stars, the spaceship landed in Stargazing City, located at the easternmost tip of the Starfall Continent.

Wangxing City was founded in the year 102 of the Gregorian calendar and was the first city established by the Great Ling Empire in the Starfall Domain.

In the beginning, the Stargazing City, which was temporarily built by the pioneering team, was just a military fortress to provide for the team's living needs.

Nearly seventy years have passed in the blink of an eye. As the Great Spirit Empire continues to develop the Starfall Domain, it is no longer limited to just one corner of the eastern side of the continent. Stargazing City has gradually become a prosperous metropolis.

Even though the Great Spirit Empire later established nearly a hundred cities of varying sizes in the Starfall Domain, Stargazing City still handled 70% of the trade and commerce in the entire Starfall Domain.

It's no exaggeration to say that anyone who wants to do business in the Starfall Domain will inevitably encounter Stargazing City.

The destination of Qinghan and Qinghe's journey was this commercial city located in the eastern part of the Starfall Continent.

Upon arriving in Wangxing City, Qinghan immediately got busy.

He used his own money to buy a rather elegant courtyard in the eastern district of Wangxing City and gave it to Mu An as Mu An's temporary residence in Wangxing City.

After arranging Mu An's accommodation, he immediately returned to the trading company and began to openly and secretly compete with the Qing family branch in Wangxing City.

As for Qinghe, who originally wanted to help him, she was sternly rejected by Qinghan and was arranged to live near Mu'an's residence, becoming Mu'an's neighbor.

Although it wasn't explicitly stated, Qinghe immediately understood her brother's meaning.

The situation in Wangxing City was more complicated than they had anticipated. Someone wanted the two siblings dead, and staying with Mr. Mu was far safer than staying with the Chamber of Commerce.

Although she was somewhat worried about her brother, Qinghe knew in her heart that if she insisted on getting involved, she would only become a burden to her brother, and following his arrangements was the best choice.

Because the flying boat arrived in Wangxing City in the dead of winter, the Spring Festival quietly arrived amidst several busy days.

The streets of Wangyue City were filled with a festive atmosphere. Bright red lanterns were hung on the restaurants and teahouses on both sides of the street, and bright red curtains were pasted on every household's door.

Walking down the street, you can still hear the sound of firecrackers coming from the alleys from time to time.

If you peek over the shoulder, you'll see several children excitedly playing together.

Even though they were millions of miles apart, the people who migrated from the Great Spirit Empire still retained the customs of celebrating the New Year.

Every Lunar New Year, they celebrate it just as they did in the Empire, rejoicing at the arrival of the new year.

Over the course of nearly seventy years, the pioneers of the empire also passed this custom on to all who came to the Starfall Domain.

Over time, all the people living in the Starfall Domain became aware of this festival of the Great Spirit Empire. Whether or not they had joined the Great Spirit Empire, they would celebrate the joyous occasion with the people of the empire.

As with every Spring Festival in the past, Mu An sat alone in the quiet courtyard, set up a copper pot, and drank with the starry sky.

The Golden Immortal is the world, and the world drinks with the stars, which is quite reasonable.

Just when Mu An thought there wouldn't be any changes this year, a knocking sound came from afar.

He glanced towards the door, intending to move the two disturbing people outside.

But just as he was about to do that, he saw Qinghan and Qinghe carrying baskets of delicious food.

After glancing at the empty copper pot on her table and remaining silent for a while, Mu An simply stood up and walked to the gate of the courtyard.

The moment the door opened, two familiar smiling faces came into Mu An's view.

"Ta-da! Mr. Mu! We've come to wish you a Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"
