Patriarch Mu is in a pretty good mood today.
Recently, several juniors from the branch have been testing their talents, and they have produced several heavenly and profound grades, and even a top grade one, which makes him so happy that he can't even see it.
The top-quality golden spiritual roots, apart from those mutated spiritual roots, are also considered outstanding among all the spiritual roots.
No, he was in a good mood, so he invited old men from other houses to come for tea.
There are five families in the aristocratic family: Mu, Li, Lin, Yi, and Nan. The old family leader Mu was in a good mood and invited all the family heads out.
Several people who were several hundred years older were sitting together and said they were drinking tea. In fact, they knew in their hearts that they came here to listen to the show off of Mu.
The other family heads secretly rolled their eyes in their hearts, show off, who can show off better than you, old man?
"Oh, it's not that big of a deal actually. You haven't seen a few of the best spiritual roots, right?" Mu, the old family master, took a cup of tea, took a sip, and smashed it into his mouth. It was originally bitter. The taste turned into sweetness and spread in his mouth: "This tea is really good, do you want to try it too?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a person walked in from outside. He clasped his fists and saluted several people before reporting: "Old Master, Miss Seven is back."
Miss Seven? Several family heads exchanged glances with each other, and it was obvious that they all knew something about the seventh lady of the Mu family.
I heard that Miss Seventh's biological mother ignored the opinions of the old family leader Mu and sent her to the sect. Logically speaking, she wanted to break the bond between the child and the Mu family. Why is she back now?
Thinking of what happened recently, everyone suddenly realized that when they looked at Patriarch Mu, the look in his eyes was obviously a bit like watching a show.
Sure enough, Patriarch Mu, who was cheerful just a moment ago, suddenly changed his expression and said with a stern expression, "Now that she's back, take her to the courtyard over the third child's side."
The guard was a little embarrassed: "Miss Seventh brought a few people from the sect, but Miss Lingxi said... Don't let Miss Seven come in with some unreasonable people."
Patriarch Mu waved his hand: "Just do as Lingxi said." Although he had punished Mu Lingxi before, it was still his blood, not to mention Mu Qianqian's temperament, he didn't think she could get to know anyone. A distinguished monk.
Dull, indifferent, and without a conscience.
I thought that after saying this, the guard would leave and do as he was told, but Patriarch Mu rolled his eyes and saw that he was still standing there, hesitating to speak, and became even more impatient: "What else is there?"
Guard: "...one of those sect members said that he is Shu Jue of Qing Hong Sect..."
Patriarch Mu's hand holding the edge of the cup trembled: "Who are you talking about?"
"Shu Jue." The guard handed over his identity badge.
Patriarch Mu: "..." Mu Lingxi, this idiot, is she going to heaven? This is it! It seemed that the last time he dealt with her he was too gentle.
I was thinking like this, but I didn't expect the guard to add another punch: "Miss Lingxi said that Shujue was a bad person, and now Shujue knows it."
Patriarch Mu's heart froze, his good mood was ruined, and his old face could no longer be darker.
There were so many old people watching beside him, and he didn't even have to think about it to know that they were waiting to see the Mu family's jokes.
He took a deep breath: "I have some things to deal with first, so you can drink first."
After saying that, he strode away.
The other old family heads could even hear his cursing voice: "What? People are still outside? Idiot! Please come in quickly!"
Patriarch Mu was a little crazy. Are all of them infected with the stupidity of Mu Lingxi's blind fool?
"Also! Call Mu Lingxi over here!" He had to think of a way to teach this stupid granddaughter a lesson.
Even if you offend a sword cultivator, you are not afraid of being poked into pieces by other masters!
Mu Lingxi was shopping with female cultivators from other families, surrounded by a group of people, and she seemed to be the one with the most say in the group.
On one side is the most favored young lady of the Chen family, and on the other side is the most favored young lady of the Yan family. Although the people behind her are not from any big family, they are all prominent figures in the family, and they are all surrounding her now. Spinning around gave Mu Lingxi a sense of accomplishment.
Until—"Miss Lingxi, the master of the house has invited me."
Mu Lingxi looked at the man in front of her, who was her grandfather's confidant, and pouted dissatisfiedly: "Uncle Liu, what does grandfather want from me?"
The man just replied respectfully: "I don't know." and said no more.
His expression was calm, and Mu Lingxi couldn't tell whether it was a good thing or a bad thing that Patriarch Mu was looking for her.
But it shouldn’t be a bad thing, right? After all, a top-quality spiritual root came out of the Mu family a while ago, and her grandfather has been in a good mood recently. With how favored she is in the Mu family, even if it is a bad thing, it should not be a big deal as long as it does not offend someone from the sect like last time. event.
Mu Lingxi reluctantly followed back.
As soon as she arrived at the gate, she found that the two guards at the gate had changed.
She wondered, didn't the guards always work in shifts every half a month? Although there were many guards in the Mu family, there were only a few of them, and after so many years, they were already familiar to her.
It’s not time to change shifts yet?
With doubts in her heart, Mu Lingxi followed Uncle Liu and walked in. Before she entered the living room, she heard the voice of Patriarch Mu from inside: "My granddaughter is naughty. Don't worry, I will definitely do well this time." Discipline!”
Discipline whom? Discipline Mu Qianqian? Mu Lingxi was counting the time in her mind. No matter how late Mu Qianqian was in leaving, she would arrive in the next two days.
Did she offend her grandfather as soon as she came back?
Mu Lingxi's eyes lit up, she lifted up her skirt and ran in excitedly: "Grandpa, what do you want from me..."
A cup of tea flew towards her and hit her on the head.
"What's the matter..." Mu Lingxi put on exquisite makeup, which was all gone as soon as the tea was washed away, and there was a circle of black under her eyes like a ghost. She looked confused and sad while holding a head full of tea leaves.
Before he could cry, Patriarch Mu scolded him: "Kneel down quickly! Mu Lingxi, you pig-brained person, look at what you have done every day! The visitor is a guest, It's better for you, people from the Qinghong Sect are here, and you have people stop her outside! There are also disciples from the Dan Sect..."
Patriarch Mu didn't want to say anything anymore.
Forget it if you cause trouble, at least find out the other party's identity first and see if you can make trouble!
It's okay now. The four major sects have offended two of them at once...oh, no, offended three of them...Old Patriarch Mu glanced at the calm juniors sitting below, their heads as big as a bucket.
As for Mu Lingxi, she was dumbfounded when she raised her head and saw Shu Jue.
She was sure that with Mu Qianqian's identity and character, Shujue would definitely look down on her. Mu Lingxi had received the news before that Shujue would go to Phoenix Marsh with Mu Qianqian solely because of the sect's safety.
As soon as they left Phoenix Marsh, these people should go their separate ways, or so she thought.
But the reality stunned her.
"Someone, throw this idiot to the back of the mountain!"
