"Brother, I've already asked the people to write down the details. According to what you said, it's our fault. We won't be able to face the families of the victims if they come looking for us," Mui Nuxin said.
"You're making your own decisions! You're making your own decisions! Are you trying to make our family starve to death!? "Mui Hua snapped at Mui Nuxin angrily.
The room fell into silence again. No one from the Dongfang Clan spoke for a long time.
They were feeling helpless and ashamed. The fire vein was more dangerous than they had imagined. Even a clan that specialized in fire was having a hard time dealing with it. They might be able to do a good job in the future, but if they could not find a way to open up the tunnel, everything would be in vain.
"If it's really impossible, we'll have to choose from the disciples of the renowned clans. Let's draft a list and announce it. Apart from the successors, the other disciples are allowed to volunteer themselves. The families of those who participate will be honored regardless of the outcome, and they will receive a huge sum of compensation. Those who succeed will be promoted to a member of the clan and enjoy the benefits of an elder, "Mui Shan said.
They had to try their best. They could not afford to wait forever. They had no choice but to send their own people instead of the outsiders.
"Mm," Mui Nuxin agreed.
"That's the only way," Dongfang Mo sighed.
After some discussion, they decided to sacrifice their own people.
It was not really a sacrifice, but a voluntary one. The people of the Dongfang Clan were well aware of the danger involved. If they were willing to help their clans overcome the difficulties, the clan would not mistreat them. However, if they did not want to risk their lives, they would not force them.
"I'll go!" At this moment, a voice sounded out.
Everyone turned around. They were surprised to see the bold disciple. Most of the people who were allowed to enter the hall were disciples of the main clan. Some of them even had the right to inherit the clan.
"Qi Shan?" Mui Hua looked at the young man in astonishment.
The people of the Mui Clan recognized Qi Shan. It was the perfect opportunity for Qi Shan to enter the hall with his strength. The problem was, it was rare for someone of his level to do something so suicidal.
"Qi Shan, are you sure?" Old Master Mui Shan asked seriously.
"If I succeed, I'll be a member of the clan, right?" Qi Shan asked.
"Yes!" Mui Shan nodded.
"In the clan, everyone thinks highly of me, but what I need is not respect, but the right to speak." Qi Shan glanced at Mui Nuxin. His current demeanor was completely different from his earlier defeated demeanor.
Mui Nuxin remained silent. She knew that her words had indeed provoked Qi Shan, but she was still surprised by his decision. Perhaps, Qi Shan would be able to soar even higher without him holding him back.
"With you taking the lead, I'm sure many of our people will be more willing to join us," Mui Shan said in a pleased tone.
Qi Shan glanced at Dongfang Lie. Dongfang Lie seemed to know that Qi Shan was his rival in love. He was not too happy when he realized that Qi Shan was the one taking on the responsibility!
"Well, can I go?" Mofan asked.
"Hmph, we don't want anyone from all walks of life. Get the graduation certificate from Pearl Institute first!" Mu Hua immediately recognized Mo Fan. He was none other than Mui Nujiao's indecent classmate.
"Brother, shouldn't you learn how to treat a guest!?" Mui Nujiao said in a displeased tone.
"Since when did you have the right to scold me? You're a representative of the national team, yet you didn't contribute anything to the clan. You don't want to do this, and you don't want to do that, either!" Mu Hua snapped.
"Brother Mu Hua … he's not from all walks of life. He's Mofan, the winner of the World College Tournament, Mofan," Dongfang Lie said.
Everyone immediately gathered their attention upon hearing the words. Qi Shan stared at Mofan in astonishment and disbelief.
Mui Nuxin opened her mouth wide in shock. She exchanged glances with Mui Nujiao, who explained to her softly. Her face immediately blushed. When she looked at Mofan again, she was a little shy. She did not dare to look into Mofan's eyes. [Love ↑ go △ little ↑ say △ w]

"Seriously, why am I so unlucky?" Mui Nuxin was too embarrassed to show her face. She had made an extreme comparison due to her strong emotions. To her surprise, the person in question was right there, yet her sister Mui Nujiao did not explain the situation clearly. She had thought her sister had brought Bai Hongfei here!
"So you're Mofan?" Mui Shan and Dongfang Mo asked simultaneously.
"Yes, I'm only here to congratulate you, but I didn't expect to hear about it from you. I'm a Fire Mage, and I'm looking for a Primitive Soul-grade Seed. I believe the fire vein you mentioned has a high chance of having a Primitive Soul-grade Seed, so I'm here to give it a try," Mofan said.
"Mu Hua, apologize to Mofan. Don't be so reckless next time," Mui Shan said in a serious tone.
Mu Hua was so angry that his veins were throbbing. But since Mu Shan had spoken, he naturally did not dare to disobey. He could only apologize reluctantly. Then, he glared fiercely at Mu Nujiao, as if he was blaming her for his grievances.
"Either way, Mofan is an outsider. It's a matter between our clans. Fanxue Mountain shouldn't be involved," Mu Hua said after apologizing.
"You should know how strong I am, and I have a Contracted Beast, the Flame Belle. If you're willing to invite me to join your clan, we can discuss it further. If you don't want me to be involved, I won't tell anyone about what you've discussed today," Mofan said.
"What do you mean by that? Are you trying to get a share of the loot?" Mu Hua snapped.
"Mu Hua, calm down," Mui Shan scolded him once again.
Mui Nuxin hesitated for a moment before looking at Dongfang Lie with a questioning look.
Dongfang Lie was overjoyed. He did not expect his fiancée to listen to his decision so quickly.
Since he was the one who had invited Mofan here, Dongfang Lie believed that Mofan was capable enough. He said to Dongfang Mo, "Uncle, Mofan is my classmate, and we've been working together on the national team. I'm well aware of his strength. I don't think anyone is more suitable than Mofan … Besides, Fanxue Mountain is going to become an important district in the north of Feiniao City. It's going to be an important place for us to make our move. Perhaps we won't have to rely so much on the military, so I don't think it's a bad idea to work with them!"
Mofan was stunned by Dongfang Lie's words.
Mofan was only planning to take part in the plan. It had nothing to do with Fanxue Mountain. However, Dongfang Lie had directly involved Fanxue Mountain, and seemed to be more than willing to share the benefits. It was beyond his expectations.
"I think it's time for us to sit down and talk," Mui Nuxin said.
"Well, I don't think it's that complicated …" Mofan was about to explain when Zhao Manyan stopped him. He gave Mofan a meaningful glance. Mofan quickly understood the situation and kept his mouth shut. "How about this?
You can come to Fanxue Mountain as a guest some other day and take a look at the construction of Fanxue Mountain. It doesn't really matter if we're working together or not. What's important is that we can keep in touch with one another. Fanxue Mountain has only just started, so there are a lot of things we need your help with … Of course, if you don't want a share of the fire vein, we won't interfere, but Fanxue Mountain is confident we can do it, "Zhao Manyan said on behalf of Mofan.
"Mm, sure," Mui Nuxin nodded.
Dongfang Lie nodded, too.
The two elders obviously had to discuss the matter further. They exchanged glances with one another and agreed to visit Fanxue Mountain as a guest with a smile.
"Let's not talk about such serious matters on such a joyous occasion. Let the youngsters have fun by themselves. Let's stay here and have some tea and talk about our daily lives," Mu Shan's wife spoke up at the right time.
"Sure, sure!"
"Yeah, it's a good day today!"
Mui Nujiao and Mui Nuxin led Mofan, Zhao Manyan, Qi Shan, and the others to another guest hall.
Inside the hall, Mui Shan sat next to Dongfang Mo. The two obviously had no intention of chatting about their daily lives. They had returned to the main topic.
Mui Shan was the first to speak, "Brother Dongfang, what do you think?"
"Mofan has a rare Contracted Beast, the Flame Belle. I don't think there's a creature like the Flame Belle in the mining operation, so the chances of failure are too high. Most importantly, Mofan is very strong, and his Primary Element is Fire, too. He's even stronger than my nephew, Dongfang Lie. Besides, you should know that Mofan's reputation is comparable to a Councilman. We won't be at a disadvantage if we work with him, "Dongfang Mo said.
"I think so, too. Fanxue Mountain is such a juicy piece of meat …" Mui Shan exclaimed.
"I'm not too familiar with Fanxue Mountain. Can you tell me more about it?" Dongfang Mo said.
"Fanxue Mountain has a lot of potential, and it's a new piece of land. It has lots of business opportunities, but they haven't had any partners since the Mu Clan has been suppressing them. The Mu Clan has annexed a lot of renowned clans and is trying to drive disobedient old clans away too. Why should we care about the Mu Clan's reputation? Why shouldn't we work with Fanxue Mountain?" Mui Shan said.
"But the Mu Clan …"
"Brother, do you think the Mu Clan will let us off the hook even if we compromise?" Mui Shan said.
"Their greed is insatiable, and they have the intention to wipe us out."
"That's right, we've already come so far. If we don't make a comeback, we're going to end up as a small clan. Besides, no matter how brazen the Mu Clan is, Mofan and Mu Ningxue are both reputable figures. The most they can do is mess with Mu Ningxue. They won't dare to mess with Mofan. We're working with Mofan himself this time. I don't believe Mu Gong would risk his reputation just to mess with him. The Dali Clan, which has become the Mu Clan's lapdog, is about to replace us. It's time for us to make a decision, "Mui Shan said.
Dongfang Mo nodded after some hesitation, "I won't let our Dongfang Clan become the Mu Clan's lapdog!"
