Chapter 10: Bastards
There is a storm in the market.
And the same is true in the side hall of the Mu family.
The seven elders sat upright in the hall, and the face of the head of the family did not change, only the second elder Mu Yan got up in shock and asked the maid.
"You said that Mu Qing was kidnapped by Lei Mang's people? What the hell is going on! ”
Mu Yan's heart was not as stable as usual, his face was ugly, and he stretched out his withered fingers to question.
The maid's pretty face turned a little pale because of the high-pitched cheers, and she hurriedly explained all the causes and consequences.
After listening, the seven elders at the end had a cold face, only to hear the big hand raise and fall, and with a bang, it smashed on the mahogany tabletop.
"This damn Lei Mang actually attacked the Mu family in Mujiafang City!"
"Seven elders and young people don't need to be impatient, didn't this maid say it? Xu is Mu Qing went somewhere to bargain alone, but it was Mu Ling, the reason was not yet determined, so he hurriedly summoned the two major leaders and dozens of spirit guards to go, if it was not good, it would cause trouble. ”
Mu He held the teacup, sneered again and again, and pointed the finger at Mu Ling.
At this time, Mu Yan was furious, "What do you mean!" ”
Before the words fell, two different forces poured out from the feet of Mu Yan and Mu He.
A celestial force is black and heavy, as thick as the water of the River Styx, and like poison with a pungent fishy smell. Mu He was not afraid, his palm flipped over, and the black heavenly power behind him turned into a black giant python in a blink of an eye, and the scales were as cold as a sword under the sunlight.
On the other hand, Mu Yan's heavenly power was as thin as mist, not as cold and refreshing as Mu He's.
But at this moment, only the elders who really saw through were horrified in their hearts.
"Mu Yan's strength has increased!"
"Good boy, you're really ahead of what we're waiting for."
The other elders passed the secret message, looked at each other, and finally shook their heads helplessly.
They were in the same batch as Mu Yannai, and they could still suppress him in the early years, but they didn't expect to be countered in their twilight years.
Mu Yan of the Eight Rank Heavenly Firmament Realm was shocking, and it made Mu He secretly frightened.
Although outsiders say that Mu Yan's strength is slow, the slowness shows that he has a strong foundation.
With such strength, Mu Yan should be a powerhouse worthy of the Nine Rank Heavenly Firmament Realm.
Mu Yan showed the same strength as Mu He, which made the eyes of the head of the family subconsciously pass with jealousy.
Fortunately, everyone's attention was on Mu He, and Mu Yan's body was not noticed, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
The two forces were as fierce as a dragon and tiger, overwhelming the other elders a little breathlessly, and their faces were ugly.
"Enough!"
Just when the smell of gunpowder between Mu Yan and Mu He was so strong that it was suffocating, the head of the family sitting on the top opened his mouth to drink.
It seemed to be drunk casually, but it made the hearts of the elders present shake.
Mu He's face was a little gloomy, and he slowly retracted his strength, but the corner of his eye glanced at the head of the family.
"Have you already set foot in the Nine Rank Heavenly Firmament Realm?" He muttered to himself.
Mu Yan snorted coldly, collected his means, did not dare to have any dissatisfaction with the head of the family, and sat back.
The head of the family in the posture of dragon and tiger dusted off the non-existent dust on the gray robe, glanced at it with thick eyebrows, and said in a condensed voice: "Mu Qing is also the Mu family after all, and if something happens in Mujiafang City, you can't ignore it." ”
Speaking of this, the sharp eyes of the head of the family pointed at Mu Yan, and he said a little carelessly: "It is really inappropriate for Mu Ling to mobilize a large number of guards, so let the five elders go to Fang City to resolve it, if it is not Lei Mang's doing, just send him out of Fang City." In addition, the five elders arranged for another manpower to conduct a comprehensive search of Fang City, and Mu Qing must not be allowed to ......."
The eyes of the head of the family suddenly became a little ruthless, "I have lost the face of my Mu family!" ”
"Follow the orders of the head of the house." The five elders stood up.
After clenching your fists, turn around and leave.
Tiger eyes looked around at the rest of the people in the hall, and the head of the family put down the teacup lightly, got up and said: "Soon it will be a big competition between the three families, and according to the rules, there will also be a small competition within the clan." This time, I think that if you change the rules and change the selection from the competition in previous years to the election, what do you think of the elders? ”
"Excerpts?"
The Seventh Elder suddenly felt bad, and stopped talking after muttering.
Several other elders also sniffed out that something was wrong, and Rao Shimuhe didn't dare to speak at this moment.
Seeing that the people did not speak, the head of the house paced and stood still in the middle of the hall.
The thick fingers interlaced and twisted the front of the sleeve robe.
Immediately after, a deep voice came out of his mouth, "The Mu family has seven veins, each vein elects one person, and the children of the main family don't have to participate this year." Waiting for the royal family's big move in the coming year, the main family and the side children who won this time will go together, and if there is a suitable one, they can all be selected. ”
As soon as these words came out, even Mu Yan's face changed slightly.
Is this the kid who is being lifted?
The elders' faces were cloudy, and they obviously knew about it.
The voice of the head of the family is not hurried, but it is as thick and dignified as a jack drop, and it is a final word, and no one can refute it.
Mu He thought, first give the main family benefits, and then logically bring back the illegitimate son next year? The head of the house, the head of the house, you really did a bad move. But it's also in line with your temperament, but you can pour your heart and soul into the bastard, it's really confused!
The Council of Elders began in a hurry and ended in the 'rain'.
No one wants an illegitimate child from outside to take over the Mu family in the future, which is something that the seven veins of the main family do not want to see.
Probably, only in this matter can the seven elders stand together.
At this time, the Seventh Elder walked out quickly with a gloomy face, expressing his dissatisfaction with his actions. The head of the family glanced at the remaining elders and ordered the matter to be settled, and then indicated that he had found Mu Qing, asked the reason, and asked Mu Ling to return to the Mu family and think about it for three days.
Mu Yan couldn't resist the head of the family, opened his mouth to answer, and got up with the elders to send him off.
After the head of the family left, the heads of the family no longer paid attention to Mu Qing and Mu Ling.
Mu He deliberately took a few steps behind, followed behind Mu Yan, and sneered twice, "It's not easy to raise a granddaughter of Tianjiao, don't be arrogant, when the time comes, when the evil seed comes back, your vein will wait for you to die, but there will really be no one to support you." ”
Mu Yan didn't speak with a cold face, brushing his sleeves and frowning.
In a burst of laughter, Mu He walked away proudly.
Looking at the elders who were drifting away, Mu Yan's old eyes inadvertently flashed helplessness.
Although Mu He's tone was unsatisfactory, it was not unreasonable.
Of today's seven veins, only the main vein of the family is the real main vein, and the others are all side lines. And the reason why the seven main veins have extended so far is that there is a fresh blood infusion, so as to inherit the position of the elder and bless the vein system.
But in the second vein, since Mu Qing, only Mu Ling is the one who can take on the heavy responsibility.
But today, the attitude of the head of the family is already obvious.
If the illegitimate child returns, the seven veins will be cleansed, which is no longer a simple choice for those who follow the law to live and those who go against it to die.
However, there is more important things to deal with at the moment.
Mu Yan didn't stop, he raised his breath, and crossed the tall wall of the Mu family like a bow and arrow, his speed was extremely fast, almost crossing, and in an instant, he had already rushed to the roof of the wine shop outside the courtyard wall, showing enough strength.
