"Qingling?"
The three elders' expressions changed slightly when they saw the figure.
"Third Elder, what's the meaning of this?"
Mu Qingling's pretty face was ice-cold as she shouted.
"Qingling, since you've noticed, I won't beat around the bush …"
The Third Elder frowned and pointed at Feng Hao. "This person's background is unknown. We can't let him stay in our Mu City."
"Hmph, the Patriarch hasn't said anything yet. What right do you have to do this?"
Mu Qingling snorted coldly.
"Patriarch?"
The Third Elder sneered. "Qingling, do you think the Patriarch doesn't know about our trip?"
Mu Qingling's pretty face darkened when she heard this.
Indeed, with Mu Lingheng's strength, how could he not notice the actions of the three elders?
This could only mean that the actions of the three elders had been tacitly approved by the Patriarch.
"Qingling, you might not know this, but the Young Master of the Chen Clan harbored resentment after being rejected by you last time. If he finds out that you're actually protecting a guy of unknown origin …"
The Fifth Elder also sighed softly.
"Qingling, move aside. I won't make things difficult for him. I'll just throw him out of Mu City and cripple his cultivation so that he won't swindle others again!"
The Fourth Elder shouted in a deep voice.
"Shut up!"
Mu Qingling's delicate body trembled when she heard this, and she hurriedly stopped him.
As a prodigy of the Mu Clan, her intuition was not something that these elders could compare to. Mu Qingling knew very well that she couldn't see through Feng Hao's strength, not because he used some kind of artifact to conceal it, but because the gap between them was too big!
Moreover, Mu Qingling could tell that Feng Hao didn't deliberately say that he had returned from the depths of the White Flame Land. In fact, he didn't even say it himself. Everything was just the speculation of the Mu Clan's disciples.
Now, because of the suspicions of the Mu Clan's disciples, the Mu Clan's elders actually did this. This undoubtedly made Mu Qingling's heart turn cold.
Of course, Mu Qingling also knew that everything the Third Elder and the others did was for the Mu Family. However, she didn't dare to think about the terrible consequences if the three elders really angered Feng Hao.
"Qing Ling, what I'm doing is for his own good. You should know that if the people from the Chen Clan come, he won't have a good ending."
The Fourth Elder frowned as he advised in a sincere and heartfelt tone.
"Qing Ling, you don't have to worry about this matter. Leave quickly. We won't fuss about your reckless actions."
The Third Elder also shouted in a deep voice.
Although Mu Qingling was the pride of their Mu Clan, the latter's attitude undoubtedly made him feel a wave of anger.
It wasn't that the Mu family hadn't produced a proud son of heaven before!
These elders, in their respective periods, which one of them was not a Heavenly Son of the Mu Family?
What was the result?
In the end, wasn't he still stuck at Rank-4?
Although Mu Qingling was hailed as the most promising prodigy of the Mu Family in thousands of years to break through to the fifth rank, this was only the praise of others.
Before he reached Rank-5, all these halos might come to an end!
"What if I don't?"
Mu Qingling's expression was cold. She had no intention of retreating at all.
"Qing Ling!"
The Third Elder frowned and shouted in a deep voice. His expression had already become extremely gloomy.
The Fourth Elder and the Fifth Elder also had a hint of displeasure in their eyes.
"Miss Qing Ling, since the Mu Family doesn't welcome me, I'll leave."
Seeing that Mu Qingling still wanted to protect him, Feng Hao could not help but stand up and say.
"Senior!"
Hearing this, Mu Qingling's delicate body trembled. She said in shame, "The people of the Mu Family have been rude. I hope you won't take it to heart, senior."
Feng Hao smiled and shook his head. He did not seem angry at all.
He could understand the attitude of these elders. His background was indeed unknown, but he was too lazy to explain it to them.
"You can leave, but I said I'm going to …"
The Fourth Elder raised his brows. In his opinion, the reason why Feng Hao retreated in the face of difficulties must be because he had been exposed.
"Fourth Elder, don't go too far!"
Mu Qingling yelled as a shocking chill was emitted from her body.
Naturally, she understood that the Fourth Elder was going to cripple Feng Hao's cultivation. This was undoubtedly challenging Feng Hao's bottom line.
Although Mu Qingling disliked the actions of these elders, she could not bear to see an elder of the Mu Family die here. Mu Qingling believed that Feng Hao definitely had the strength to do so.
The aura that the latter emitted from the Sea of White Flames would only appear after a long journey in the Sea of White Flames!
How could someone who could return from the depths of the Sea of White Flames be so weak?
"You …"
"Fourth Elder!"
The Fourth Elder's expression darkened. He was about to scold him, but he did not want to cause unnecessary trouble. In his opinion, the most important thing now was to expel Feng Hao from Mu City. As for how to deal with this guy in the future, wasn't it up to the Fourth Elder to decide? There was no need for them to fall out with this generation's genius from the Mu Family.
"Haha, Sister Qingling, looks like your Mu Family isn't very harmonious. What's wrong? Do you need brother Peng to help you deal with these old fogeys? "
At this moment, a mocking laughter suddenly rang out in the air.
"Chen Peng? The young master of the Chen Family is here?! "
Hearing this voice, the expressions of the three elders changed abruptly.
A sliver of disgust flashed through Mu Qingling's beautiful eyes.
Swish!
Very soon, there was the sound of rushing wind as a long streak of light whistled over. Only when it approached did it become clear that it was an extremely luxurious carriage. Before the flying carriage were two mighty beasts. It was not difficult to tell that the two beasts were extremely powerful from the presence they gave off.
There were six figures behind the flying carriage. From the presence they gave off, it was not difficult to tell that the six of them were at least level 4 Reciprocity experts!
A young man with a slightly pale face sat in the luxurious flying chariot. There were a few extremely beautiful maidservants attending to him.
He was the young master of the Chen Family … Chen Peng!
Swish! Swish!
With Chen Peng's arrival, several streaks of light shot into the sky from the estate of the Mu family, hurrying over.
Clearly, the patriarch of the Mu family, Mu Lingheng, could not sit still when he sensed Chen Peng's presence.
To the Mu family, the Chen family was definitely a colossal existence. They did not dare to slight them at all.
"Young master Chen, long time no see. Please forgive me for not welcoming you earlier!"
Mu Lingheng smiled as he welcomed the flying carriage.
Swish!
However, what made him feel awkward was that the Chen family's young master had no intention of paying attention to him. He directly flew past him and landed in the sky above Mu Qingling's mansion under numerous gazes of reverence.
"Sister Qingling, long time no see. You're still as pretty as ever. It makes my heart itch."
