Chapter 13 - Conditions?

The legendary Immortal King Mu Yun is reborn into the body of a bullied illegitimate son, disliked by his family and father. Despite being a genius in the alchemy world, he's called a good-for-nothing and a useless bum by his family. Miss Qin Mengyao of the Qin family is also considered exceptionally beautiful, but destined not to live past twenty. For the sake of their families' interests, the Qin and Mu families form an alliance through marriage…

"Mu Yun comes from the Mu family in the capital, the son of the patriarch. This boy's change today can only mean he's been biding his time!"

Hearing her granddaughter's doubts, Qin Shiyu affirmed, "If your marriage to him goes through, perhaps Master Mo Wen can cure your strange illness. I hope Patriarch Mu can facilitate this marriage!"

Hearing this, Qin Mengyao pouted.

She considered herself beautiful, but today, Mu Yun publicly refused the marriage. Although it was against the family's arrangement, it was still a blow to her.

Moreover, thinking that she still had a year left, Qin Mengyao's face darkened.

If Mu Yun heard Old Master Qin's evaluation of him, he would probably laugh until he cried.

The phrase "concealing one's talents and biding one's time" truly didn't suit him.

But at this moment, Mu Yun couldn't laugh; instead, he looked utterly miserable.

Mo Wen, this six-star alchemist, was just too…too annoying!

Ever since entering his courtyard, he hadn't stopped talking, constantly asking him about alchemy.

If it weren't for the old man letting him use his influence in the main hall, Mu Yun would have loved to shut him up!

Finally, as the sun began to set, seeing that Mo Wen still intended to stay, Mu Yun quickly saw him off.

Master Mo, in the end, left reluctantly, still feeling unsatisfied. Lu Xiaotian had spent the whole day with him, his heart pounding with fear.

The entire Mu family, from top to bottom, didn't dare to breathe loudly.

In the past, Mu Yun's courtyard was always quiet and deserted, but today, it was surrounded by people.

However, as Master Mo left, those people gradually dispersed.

The bright moon hung high, and Mu Yun sat on his bed, recalling the day's turmoil, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

In his past life, as a Celestial King of countless Great Worlds, he commanded the winds and rains, unstoppable by anyone. Yet, he was ultimately betrayed and killed by a group of villains.

Thinking of the scene of those dozens of Celestial Kings joining forces to kill him, Mu Yun's heart surged with hatred.

"Since Heaven has granted me another chance, this time, I will surely return to the Great Thousand Worlds and shake the universe once more!" Mu Yun roared inwardly.

With a soft creak, the door opened.

Mu Linchen walked in from outside.

"Godfather!"

Mu Yun bowed respectfully and stood up.

"Yun'er, I have wronged you all these years, but today, you have truly impressed me!" Mu Linchen went straight to the point: "I will not inquire about your relationship with Master Mo, but regarding the marriage alliance with the Qin family, I hope you will agree!"

"Agree? Why?"

With a sigh, Mu Linchen sat down.

"Northern Cloud City is dominated by four major families: the Qin, Mu, Wang, and Diao families. Now, the Wang and Diao families are joining forces to pressure our Mu and Qin families. We must take action!"

Mu Linchen said heavily. "As you know, the First and Second Elders are currently very arrogant. I hope you can agree to this for now!"

"We can outwardly ally with the Qin family to temporarily alleviate the pressure. We can dissolve the engagement later!"

Mu Linchen looked at Mu Yun, his eyes surprisingly pleading.

Mu Yun was stunned.

In Mu Yun's previous eyes, her adoptive father was unbreakable, always standing tall and upright.

It seemed that Mu Linchen's expression at this moment touched the Mu Yun of the past.

Slowly nodding, Mu Yun replied, "Alright, I agree!"

Hearing Mu Yun's agreement, Mu Linchen looked at her with some surprise.

"However, I have a condition!"

Hearing this, Qin Mengyao pouted.

She considered herself beautiful, but today, Mu Yun actually refused the marriage in public. Although it was against the family's arrangement, it was still a blow to her.

Moreover, thinking that she still had a year left, Qin Mengyao's face darkened.

If Mu Yun heard Old Master Qin's evaluation of him, he would probably laugh until he cried.

The phrase "keeping a low profile" really didn't suit him.

But at this moment, Mu Yun couldn't laugh; instead, he looked miserable.

"We can superficially join forces with the Qin family to temporarily alleviate the pressure. We can dissolve the engagement later!"

Mu Linchen looked at Mu Yun, his eyes surprisingly pleading.

Mu Yun was stunned.

In Mu Yun's previous eyes, her adoptive father was unbreakable, always standing tall and upright.

It seemed that Mu Linchen's expression at that moment touched the Mu Yun who once resided in his heart.

Mu Yun slowly nodded and replied, "Okay, I agree!"

Hearing Mu Yun's agreement, Mu Linchen looked at him with some surprise.
