Everything went smoothly!
This went so smoothly that Mu Yuandong was not used to it. He had thought that Mu Yuanshan would make a big fuss, but he had never thought that Mu Yuanshan would be so cooperative. He felt greatly surprised, but at the same time, he secretly estimated that the weight of Mu Qing's bargaining chip surpassed his expectations.
Wasn't it just a child?
Was it that important?
Mu Yuandong felt some disdain towards Mu Yuanshan. If it was him, he definitely wouldn't give up his family's authority so easily.
However …
Mu Yuanshan's actions allowed him to put down a huge stone in his heart. The following matters would definitely go smoothly. Seizing the position of Palace Lord was only the first step. His true goal was that Astral Core. As long as he could absorb the energy of the Astral Core, it wouldn't be long before he became the number one expert in Divine Fire City.
A mere Wang family wants a share of his mine?
He must be dreaming!
Everything was going according to his plan.
In less than an hour, Mu Yuanshan would come looking for him …
As he thought of this, he could not help but be overjoyed. He thought to himself, "Asteroid core … As long as I devour the asteroid core … even if the old master comes out of seclusion, what can he do to me? Mu Yuanshan, oh Mu Yuanshan, how could you be so stupid? You control the star core but don't know how to devour it. I really don't know what you're thinking. "
After devouring star cores, the Wood Mansion's power would increase rapidly.
At the very least, no one in Divine Fire City was a match for the Wood Clan. The Wang Clan was too weak.
Even if he forced her to abdicate, it would be useless.
After all, this was a world where the strong were respected. Even if Mu Yuandong obtained the position of Patriarch, it would be very difficult for him to grasp the power of the family. However, Mu Yuanshan did not devour it. This meant that the Star Nucleus was still with him, or was under his control …
Thinking of this, the corners of Mu Yuandong's mouth couldn't help but curl up, and he felt a faint excitement in his heart.
…
He would become the Patriarch of the Wood Manor and wield great power.
Mu Yuandong didn't stay in the hall for too long. After giving a few instructions, he rushed back to his residence.
He had to get ready.
He would be officially appointed in three days. That day was his big day, so he had to prepare early. He also wanted to go back and wait for Mu Yuanshan. He wanted to obtain the Astral Core before he took office. That way, the situation would be completely under his control.
Behind him was Mu Yuanbei.
He did not say anything, but his expression was extremely complicated. His brows were tightly furrowed, and his fists were tightly clenched since he came out. It was as if he was suppressing a powerful rage in his heart.
He is a man of few words.
Because he was an adopted son, his position in the Mu Clan was not very high, and he did not fight for it.
But his son, Mu Lun, was his only hope.
But now he was dead.
Mu Yuandong said softly, "Bro Bei, suppress your anger. I will definitely give you a chance to take revenge. Now is not the time."
Mu Yuanbei's eyes moved, the suppressed aura on his body suddenly surged as he said solemnly, "Yuandong, you really didn't lie to me? Was Lun 'er really killed by people from Yuanshan? Why would he do that? Is it because Lun 'er likes his precious daughter? "
Mu Yuanbei wholeheartedly cultivated and was the strongest person in the Mu Clan apart from the old man.
With him around, Mu Yuandong felt much more at ease.
If it wasn't for Mu Yuanbei's energy in the hall, he would have had to spend more effort. How could he let go of such a good bodyguard? Although Mu Yuandong had not seen Mu Lun's corpse, he guessed that Mu Lun was most likely dead.
It was a good opportunity to frame Mu Yuanshan.
In any case, Mu Yuanshan did not like Mu Lun very much. This was a good opportunity.
Mu Yuandong said faintly, "Sigh, even if Lun-er has a thousand faults, he's still a member of the Mu Family. What Big Brother did was indeed too much. If only I could have stopped him, sigh … "
He sighed continuously, pretending to be in great pain.
Mu Yuanbei was just a martial artist, how could he see through Mu Yuandong's thoughts?
The two of them hurriedly walked.
It was almost noon when they returned to their residence.
Just as they stepped through the door, Mu Yuandong's face darkened. There was blood everywhere on the road. He immediately shouted, "What happened?"
"Master …"
"Master …"
"Not good, Master, Young Master …"
… …
The faces of the three elite disciples who ran out of Five Blessings Floor were deathly pale. Although their arms were bandaged, they were still constantly bleeding. The few of them had pale lips due to excessive blood loss. If they hadn't taken a few medicinal pills, they would have died.
Of course.
As elite disciples of the Mu Clan, they naturally had many healing pills on them. It was just that they wouldn't take too many. The reason was simple, they had to pretend to be very miserable and pitiful. Because Mu Xiang was dead, if they didn't pretend to be miserable, they probably wouldn't have a good ending. After all, they were sent by Mu Yuandong to protect Mu Xiang.
Other than them, there was one more person, Fang Changxing.
Although he didn't lose an arm, he suffered internal injuries that were even more miserable and severe.
"Speak!"
"What's going on?!" Mu Yuandong frowned, faintly worried in his heart. He looked around and immediately said, "Xiang 'er? Where is he? "
"Young Master, he …"
"Master, we're sorry."
"We're useless, we're useless, we can't protect Young Master …"
… …
"Buzz …"
Mu Yuandong's body suddenly erupted with a powerful aura. The power of a Profound Star Rank 5 suddenly erupted, suppressing all four of them. He shouted, "Don't talk to me about useless things. I want to know where my son is now!"
"He …"
"He … is dead …"
"We met a Profound Star Rank 5 powerhouse, we … we are not her opponent …"
"Wu …"
After saying that, he started sobbing in pain.
"Dead?!"
Mu Yuandong's body trembled slightly and he suddenly retreated. His eyes looked to the side and muttered to himself, "Dead? Dead? Xiang 'er is dead? My son is dead? Who was it … who dared to touch my son … "
"Who!"
His voice was like thunder, roaring out.
His son was dead. Mu Yuandong's whole body was cold. The anger in his heart crazily surged out. He finally understood Mu Yuanbei's feelings. He could not bear it anymore and instantly erupted.
The released spiritual pressure crushed the faces of those people. Their breathing became rapid, and the wounds on their arms split open again. Dark red blood gushed out. Looking at the angry Mu Yuandong, one of them trembled and said, "That person … that person was wearing … a cloak … we couldn't see clearly … but she was a woman …"
"Woman?"
"Could it be that bitch from the Wang Family?"
"Impossible, how could she make a move on Xiang 'er? She wouldn't dare to touch my son." Mu Yuandong said in a deep voice. There were only a few Profound Star Rank 5 powerhouses in the Divine Volcano. Among them, there was only one woman, and that was Wang Chao's aunt, Wang Ying.
But she couldn't make a move on Mu Xiang.
The disciple hurriedly said, "No … no, it's not the Wang Family … it's a young woman … her voice sounds unfamiliar … I've never heard of her before …"
"Unfamiliar woman?"
"An unfamiliar woman dares to cause trouble in the Divine Fire City. She dared to touch my son. I, Mu Yuandong, will tear her into pieces …" Mu Yuandong said while gritting his teeth. The killing intent released from his body was extremely oppressive.
"Master …"
"Not just her … there's someone else …"
Mu Yuandong's face turned ugly. His eyes widened and said, "Speak, who else?"
"There's … there's a few Mu Mansion's outer sect disciples. The leader is called Hong Chong. They seem to be in cahoots with that woman. There's another person I've never seen before …"
"Outer sect disciple?"
"An outer sect disciple can mingle with a Profound Star Rank 5 powerhouse? Do you think I'm an idiot? " Mu Yuandong's eyes were filled with anger. He stared at the three people and said, "You can't even deal with outer sect disciples. What's the point of raising you!"
Immediately!
His right hand turned into a palm and his palm turned into a blade. A biting cold Star Qi swept out from his palm.
A white light flashed.
Three heads rolled to the ground.
Blood spurted all over the ground.
Mu Yuandong didn't even blink. The muscles at the corner of his eyes twitched a few times. He stared at the shivering Fang Changxing and asked, "Where are they now?"
Fang Changxing swallowed his saliva and said with a trembling voice, "Five … Five Blessings Hall."
Mu Yuandong's face turned sinister. He shouted, "Get someone to clean up the corpses. Don't leave any evidence. Do you understand?"
This was a crucial time.
If he killed three Profound Star Rank 4 elite disciples in one go, he would definitely lose his position as Mansion Master if the elders who opposed him saw it.
Mu Yuanbei stood at the side and didn't speak.
He understood Mu Yuandong's feelings. When did he not want to kill his enemy with his own hands?
Now that both of them had lost their sons, they felt a sense of sympathy for each other. When Mu Yuandong was about to step out of the door and rush to the Five Blessings Hall, Mu Yuanbei pulled Mu Yuandong and said, "Third Brother, now is not the time."
"Mu Yuanshan will be here soon. We can't mess up at this time."
"Leave this matter to me. I will take care of it for you."
Mu Yuandong's heart sank. He looked at Mu Yuanbei and calmed down. He suppressed his anger and said in his heart, "Yes, we can't make any mistakes at this time. Xiang 'er is already dead. I can't make any mistakes. Xiang 'er, let father take down Mu Yuanshan and obtain the Star Nucleus. After I devour the Star Nucleus, I will definitely avenge you. Even if that person escapes to the ends of the earth, I will definitely make her accompany you in death … … "
"Second Brother."
"You don't go either. Stay by my side."
"When I truly become the Mansion Master, we will avenge our sons together. At that time, you can kill your Mu Yuanshan. I will dig three feet into the ground to find that bitch!" Mu Yuandong's eyes turned gloomy. He quickly calmed down.
Mu Yuanbei was slightly startled. Although he was a Profound Star Rank 6 expert, he didn't have Mu Yuandong's state of mind.
He immediately nodded.
… …
At this time, Mu Yuanshan rushed towards Mu Yuandong's residence. His heart was filled with killing intent. At the same time, he was worried about Mu Qing's safety. He didn't expect that his own brother would stab him in the back.
… …
Half an hour after the Mu Mansion chose a new Mansion Master.
Mystic Fire City, Wang Clan.
A cold smile hung on Wang Chao's face. He waved his paper fan and said softly, "I didn't think that Mu Yuandong would dare to force me to abdicate. Seems like Mu Qing's bargaining chip isn't light. Hehe … … chance, a good chance."
A hint of excitement appeared in his eyes.
He then immediately walked towards the Wang Clan's back mountain … …
… …
Wu Fu Lou.
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, he waited for a long time but the BOSS still did not appear. Feeling annoyed, he immediately regretted letting the three go. Three killing points, wasted just like that. Taking a deep breath, he leaned on the window frame and looked at the bustling crowd on the street. "Since I've eaten and drank to my heart's content, it's time to work."
