CHAPTER 99
Arrive at
What Mu Yun had done in the past half a year was really amazing.
As soon as he made a move, he was able to refine first grade and second grade pills. Miaoqing even suspected that if Mu Yun wasn't limited by his strength, he would be able to refine third grade pills.
When he struck again, the Upper Grade Mortal Weapon, the Green Palace Sword, was comparable to a Supreme Grade Mortal Weapon. It was also limited by his own strength. Perhaps, he could even forge a Profound Weapon.
What surprised him the most was Mu Yun's strength. Dongfang Yu, Diao Yadong, Wang Qingfeng, Mu Fengyuan and Mu Fengqing were all stronger than him.
However, they were all defeated by him in an inconceivable manner.
Even if he were to face Bei Yiwentian, he would not be afraid.
He knew that Bei Yiwentian's position in the Sacred Elixir Sect was equivalent to the Young Clan Leader of a large family like the Mu Clan.
Also, what kind of divine technique was that marvelous Great Death Snatching Technique?
"Alright. Actually, I've been waiting for you because I have a question for you!" Grandmaster Miao finally said helplessly, "I never thought that as a seventh-grade alchemist, I would actually ask you a question one day, hehe …"
"You can ask questions, but you have to promise me one thing!"
"Oh? Brat, do you know what I want to ask? "
"The answer is on this piece of paper, as long as you promise me one thing!"
As she spoke, Mu Yun reached out and took out a piece of paper. She shook it and smiled mysteriously.
"No problem. What are your conditions?"
Mu Yun smiled and said, "The condition is simple. I need you to help me take care of Yao 'er in the Sacred Elixir Sect and ensure her safety for three years."
Hearing this condition, Miao Qing frowned.
"With this condition, as a seventh-grade alchemist, my status in the Sacred Elixir Sect is indeed extraordinary, but …"
"Don't worry. You haven't asked your question yet. You haven't seen my answer yet."
With that, Mu Yun picked up a drumstick and turned to leave with a smile.
Opening the paper left behind by Mu Yun on the table, the murkiness in Master Miao's eyes gradually dissipated and was replaced by shock.
"Good lad, you've long seen through this old man's heart."
Miao Qing smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't expect to be tricked by him. However, three years. Does he think that he can break into the Saint Pill Sect in three years to save someone?"
Miao Qing laughed involuntarily.
However, after laughing, a grave expression appeared on Miao Qing's face.
"For others, it might be impossible, but for him, who can say for sure?"
…
The next day, early in the morning, carriages and horses were moving outside the Mu family's house.
Now that the Diao and Wang Clans had been destroyed, there was only the Family Qin and the Mu Clan left in Beiyun City. These two clans undoubtedly held all the power in Beiyun City.
On this day, Mu Yun was about to leave Beiyun City.
Outside the gates of the Mu Family, numerous fiery-red Iron Cloud Lions stood majestically.
Close to a hundred martial artists clad in silver armor stood proudly. Upon closer inspection, most of these martial artists were at the Spiritual Cave Realm. There were even some who were at the fifth level of the Spiritual Cave Realm.
At the gate of the Mu Family, a young man in a black robe stepped out. His long hair was tied up, and a strand of hair covered his eyes.
"Greetings, Young Clan Leader!"
Putong, putong, putong, the many silver-armored guards knelt on the ground and lowered their heads.
"Get up!"
Waving his hand, Mu Yun walked forward.
In front of him was a blood-red Gold Iron Cloud Lion.
The Gold Iron Cloud Lion was a mutated species among the Iron Cloud Lions. The Iron Cloud Lion was no longer a demonic beast, but a spirit beast. It already had a trace of intelligence.
The Gold Iron Cloud Lion was much stronger than the Iron Cloud Lion.
Normally, when a Gold Iron Cloud Lion was born in an Iron Cloud Lion tribe, it would lead a group of Iron Cloud Lions, and this Gold Iron Cloud Lion would be the leader.
Mu Yun walked forward and discovered that every Iron Cloud Lion had a silver-armored ancient martial art practitioner standing beside it. Only this Gold Iron Cloud Lion had no one beside it.
"Oh? Are you testing me? "
Looking at the mockery in the eyes of the silver-armored martial artists around him, Mu Yun sneered in his heart.
Step by step, he walked to the front of the Gold Iron Cloud Lion. Looking at the ferocious face of the Gold Iron Cloud Lion, Mu Yun's hands in his sleeves gradually surged with a chill.
"Little guy, don't be afraid!"
Walking forward, Mu Yun's palm gently stroked the Gold Iron Cloud Lion's body.
A shocking scene occurred.
The Gold Iron Cloud Lion, which was originally covered in blazing flames and filled with a fiery and violent aura, seemed to have eaten a dud in an instant. A hint of fear appeared in its eyes, and its body could not help but tremble.
How could it be!
Seeing this scene, everyone present was astonished.
The Iron Cloud Lion was a first-level spirit beast, comparable to a martial artist at the first level of the Spiritual Cave Realm. The Gold Iron Cloud Lion was a third-level spirit beast. How could it be afraid of Mu Yun?
They had heard that Mu Yun had not reached the Spiritual Cave Realm.
"In the future, I don't want such a test to happen to me. After all, I am the Young Clan Leader!"
"Yes!"
After Mu Yun finished speaking, the scene became solemn.
"Let's go!"
With a command, the group of a hundred people moved forward in a grandiose manner.
The Mu Clan and Family Qin had already become the overlords of Beiyun City, so he did not need to worry. As for Qi Ming and Moyang, he already had a plan.
Great Master Miao Qing also left Beiyun City with Miao Xianyu. As for where they went, others did not know, but Mu Yun knew.
It was time to leave Beiyun City and see a true expert.
At the same time, in the Mu Clan of Southern Cloud City.
As one of the four major clans of the Southern Cloud Empire, the Mu Clan was located in the capital of the Southern Cloud Empire — Southern Cloud City.
The Mu Clan, which occupied thousands of acres of land, was simply a city within a city in Southern Cloud City. Mighty and majestic buildings could be seen everywhere.
In the entire Southern Cloud Empire, the imperial family, Mu Clan, Lin Clan, Xiao Clan, and Gu Clan were considered the five major forces.
The imperial family said that they controlled the Southern Cloud Empire, but everyone knew that the Southern Cloud Empire was controlled by these five major forces.
At this moment, in a courtyard of the Mu Clan's mansion, two figures were sitting at a stone table.
One of them was dressed in silk and satin. Her hair was tied up in a bun, and she wore a jade bracelet on her hand. Her every movement gave off a graceful and luxurious feeling.
Opposite her was a young man who was about twenty-four or twenty-five years old.
The young man was dressed in blue martial attire. His figure was vigorous, and his appearance was seventy to eighty percent similar to the woman sitting opposite him.
"Mother, Father appointed the illegitimate child Mu Yun as the Young Clan Leader and brought her back from a place like Beiyun City. What is the meaning of this?"
The young man suddenly opened his mouth.
"Jinming, how many times have I told you, don't be anxious when something happens? Look at you now. Mu Yun hasn't arrived yet, and you're already so anxious. If she really arrives, I'm afraid you'll become an ant on a hot pan. "
"Mother, how can I not be anxious?"
Mu Jinming couldn't help but say, "Father's meaning is very clear. If Mu Yun is the Young Clan Leader, wouldn't the great Shepherds be handed over to her in the future? I'm not willing."
"You're not the only one who's not willing!" The middle-aged woman replied, "I'm afraid that the second branch and the third branch can't wait any longer. Why are you so anxious?"
"But mother, you're the First Madam. Logically speaking, the Young Clan Leader position should belong to me, Mu Jinming!"
Hearing this, the middle-aged woman shook her head and said, "Your father isn't the kind of person who's bound by formalities. The reason why he could become the Mu Clan Leader back then was because he didn't stick to one pattern. In less than twenty years, the Mu Clan became one of the five major forces in the Southern Cloud Empire. Your father's insight and decisiveness are indispensable. Remember, no matter what, don't forget your father's strength."
"I understand!"
"I know you're not convinced. However, although Mu Yun has been appointed as the Young Clan Leader, she still has a long way to go before she can become the Clan Leader."
The middle-aged woman continued, "If he's mediocre, then he can't keep the Young Clan Leader position. If he's a genius, then we're not the only ones who want him dead. If the Lin Clan can allow one Mu Qingyu to appear, then they won't allow a second one."
"Yes!"
…
Along the way, Mu Yun and the silver-armored guards mingled almost the same. She also obtained a lot of information that she wanted to know from these people.
That cheap father of hers had many wives and concubines. He was not inferior to an Emperor.
With many wives, there would naturally be many children. In the entire Mu Clan, this cheap father had more than ten children. However, there were only a few that caught Mu Yun's attention.
The First Madam's branch, the Second Madam's branch, and the Third Madam's branch.
These three madams all had great backgrounds. Moreover, their sons and daughters were also outstanding.
"It seems that coming to Southern Cloud City will be more interesting. The internal strife within the clan and the external strife are more exciting than Northern Cloud City."
Mu Yun smiled and said, "Moreover, this Young Clan Leader position should be very useful in the Mu Clan. It can sound the alarm for those young masters and ladies. It's fine if I, Mu Yun, don't be the Young Clan Leader. Since I've become the Young Clan Leader, no one can covet it."
They traveled for ten days. Along the way, they were escorted by the silver-armored guards, so there were no problems.
On this day, a towering and magnificent city finally appeared in front of the group.
Looking from afar, the city wall, which was dozens of meters high, was like a crouching giant beast that was waiting to devour every warrior that came.
When they got closer, Mu Yun discovered that the city wall was actually made of rare Black Crystal Stones.
Black Crystal Stones could be considered as a necessary material in refining weapons. A palm-sized Black Crystal Stone was worth ten pieces of low-grade spirit stones.
Mu Yun could not estimate the value of the Black Crystal Stones that surrounded Southern Cloud City, which was tens of thousands of acres of land.
"It's indeed a big place. It's much better than Northern Cloud City." Mu Yun patted the city wall and muttered to herself, "It's just that this Black Crystal Stone is still a little inferior. If we use the Black Cloud Stone, it will be really powerful."
"Black Cloud Stone?"
Hearing Mu Yun muttering to herself, the surrounding silver-armored guards were all dumbfounded.
A piece of Black Cloud Stone was worth ten pieces of mid-grade spirit stones. How could it be used to build the city wall?
However, having said that, along the way, they had passed by big and small cities. Beside them, Mu Yun did not seem like a country bumpkin who came from a small place like Northern Cloud City. Instead, she was experienced and knowledgeable. There were many things that Mu Yun knew clearly without them asking.
