"Grandpa..."
Upon seeing the person who arrived, Mu Yuan burst into tears, his body trembling even more violently.
"Mu Yun, you scoundrel, what are you doing?"
Seeing Mu Yuan's arms hanging limply, Mu Fengqing trembled with rage. Behind him, Mu Qian lowered his head, staring intently at Mu Yun.
"What am I doing?" Mu Yun chuckled and said, "Nothing much, just playing a game with Mu Yuan that we used to play when we were little!"
"Mu Yun, you're so audacious! You actually attacked a member of your own clan and even made Yuan'er bark like a dog... I think you're tired of living!"
Mu Fengqing was furious!
"Second Elder, what do you mean? I remember when I was nine years old, Mu Yuan made me bark like a dog. My godfather stopped me, and you just said it was just children playing around!"
"That was indeed just children playing around..." Mu Fengqing said sarcastically.
"Is that so?" Mu Yun's expression gradually turned cold as he laughed, "Then later, when I was twelve, Mu Yuan used me as a punching bag for martial arts practice, and when I was fifteen, Mu Yuan hung me upside down from a tree as a target for archery practice. Is that childish play?"
"Mu Yun! No matter what, Mu Yuan is your cousin!"
"Cousin?"
Mu Yun sneered, "Useless thing, he doesn't deserve to be my cousin!"
In his previous life, having seen too many treacherous villains, Mu Yun deeply understood that evil people need to be dealt with by other evil people. At crucial moments, showing mercy to evil people is just leaving trouble for oneself.
"How you treated me back then, now, I'm just giving you a taste of your own medicine!"
"Hmph, do you think that by getting close to Master Mo, you can do whatever you want? I'll kill you now, and I don't believe that Mo Wen will hold a grudge against my Mu family because of you!"
Mu Fengqing said coldly.
He finally saw it clearly: whether Mu Yun was truly foolish or feigning foolishness before, the current Mu Yun was a tiger cub gradually revealing its claws, ready to bite at any moment.
He had changed, he had truly changed, becoming terrifying!
"You dare!"
Just as Mu Fengqing's killing intent swept over Mu Yun, a snort suddenly rang out from outside the courtyard.
"Godfather!"
"Clan Chief!"
Mu Linchen walked into the courtyard with his hands behind his back, his eyes
gleaming .
"Second Elder, I see you are becoming more and more presumptuous!" Mu Linchen frowned and reprimanded, "Mu Yuan is a member of my Mu family, and Yun'er is also a member of my Mu family. Injuries are inevitable when members spar."
"But you actually harbored murderous intent towards Yun'er! Do you know that he is my son, Mu Linchen's son!" Mu Linchen's voice was filled with anger. "Let's let this matter rest!"
"But, Clan Chief..."
"Second Elder, didn't you hear what I said?" Mu Linchen exuded a powerful aura, intimidating the Second Elder.
"Yes!"
Gritting his teeth, Mu Fengqing lowered his head.
"Today's events were caused by Mu Qian's utter nonsense, sowing discord among the Mu family members. Mu Qian's cultivation is hereby abolished, and he is expelled from the Mu family!"
With a thud, Mu Qian slumped to the ground, his face deathly pale.
Over the years, relying on his position as the Mu family's steward, he had bullied the weak and bullied others. Once his cultivation was abolished and he left the Mu family, his fate would be...
After saying this, Mu Linchen turned around, looked at Mu Yun, and said, "Yun'er, come with me. Old Master Qin and Miss Qin have arrived. You will come with me to greet them!"
"Huh?"
"What 'huh'? Come with me!" Mu Linchen glared at Mu Yun and shouted.
Stepping out of the courtyard, Mu Linchen suddenly stopped, looking at Mu Yun with a scrutinizing expression.
"Fourth level of the Body Strengthening Realm, and your strength is far more than just fourth level. You little rascal, you've been hiding it very well!"
Unexpectedly, his adoptive father saw through him at a glance, Mu Yun awkwardly scratched his head.
"I don't want to ask you what happened, but since you agreed to the marriage with your godfather, you have to fulfill it!"
Without pressing further, Mu Linchen got straight to the point. "You should know that you're marrying Miss Qin. Qin Mengyao has a strange illness, and many alchemists have predicted that she won't live past twenty. Since you know Master Mo, the Qin family patriarch came here this time hoping that you could have Master Mo examine Qin Mengyao and see if there's any hope for her..."
Strange illness? Not even twenty?
Mu Yun suddenly understood. No wonder the Qin family chose him for the marriage alliance with the Mu family; that was the reason.
"Godfather, I don't have a deep relationship with Master Mo, and besides, that old man is incredibly annoying!"
Hearing Mu Yun's words, Mu Linchen's eyes widened, and he almost choked on his breath. "Grandpa..."
Upon seeing the person who came, Mu Yuan burst into tears, his body trembling even more violently.
"Mu Yun, you scoundrel, what are you doing?"
Seeing Mu Yuan's arms hanging limply, Mu Fengqing trembled with rage. Behind him, Mu Qian lowered his head, staring intently at Mu Yun.
"What am I doing?" Mu Yun chuckled and said, "Nothing much, just playing a game with Mu Yuan that we used to play when we were kids!"
"Mu Yun, you're incredibly audacious! You actually attacked a member of your own clan and even made Yuan'er bark like a dog… I think you're tired of living!"
Mu Fengqing was furious!
"Second Elder, what do you mean? I remember when I was nine, Mu Yuan made me bark like a dog. My godfather stopped me, and you just said it was just kids playing around!"

Mu Fengqing said coldly.
He finally saw it clearly: whether Mu Yun was truly stupid or pretending to be stupid before, the current Mu Yun was a young tiger gradually revealing its claws, ready to bite at any time.
He's changed, he's really changed, changed to a terrifying degree!
"You dare!"
Just as Mu Fengqing's killing intent swept over Mu Yun, a snort suddenly rang out from outside the courtyard.
"Godfather!"
"Clan Chief!"
Mu Linchen walked into the courtyard with his hands behind his back, his eyes
gleaming .
"Second Elder, I see you're becoming increasingly presumptuous!" Mu Linchen frowned and reprimanded, "Mu Yuan is a member of my Mu family, and Yun'er is also a member of my Mu family. Injuries are inevitable in sparring between members." "
But you actually harbored murderous intent towards Yun'er! Do you know he is my son, Mu Linchen's son!" Mu Linchen's voice was filled with anger. "Let's let this matter rest!"
"But, Clan Chief..."
"Second Elder, didn't you hear what I said?" Mu Linchen exuded a powerful aura, intimidating the Second Elder.
"Yes!"
Gritting his teeth, Mu Fengqing lowered his head.
"Today's events are nothing but Mu Qian's utter nonsense, sowing discord among the Mu family members. I'm going to cripple Mu Qian's cultivation and expel him from the Mu family!"
With a thud, Mu Qian collapsed to the ground, his face deathly pale.
Over the years, relying on his position as the Mu family's steward, he had bullied the weak and oppressed. Once his cultivation was crippled and he left the Mu family, his fate would be...
With that, Mu Linchen turned to Mu Yun and said, "Yun'er, come with me. The Qin family patriarch has brought Miss Qin. You'll come with me to greet him!"
"Huh?"
"What 'huh'? Come with me!" Mu Linchen glared at Mu Yun and shouted.
Stepping outside the courtyard gate, Mu Linchen suddenly stopped, looking at Mu Yun with a scrutinizing gaze.
"Fourth level of the Body Strengthening Realm, and your strength is far more than just fourth level. You little rascal, you've been hiding it quite well!"
Unexpectedly, his adoptive father had seen through him at a glance. Mu Yun awkwardly scratched his head.
