The old woman looked tremblingly at the young man before her and asked.

"Can you really help me find my daughter?"

Mu Zian nodded, everything was understood without words.

As soon as he finished speaking, a series of chaotic footsteps echoed from inside the yamen.

The next moment, countless yamen runners wielding sticks poured out of the door and surrounded Mu Zian, Zhao Yun, and Jia Xu.

The head constable stared at the smashed gate and the burly man lying on the ground, barely alive.

He immediately drew his sword, stared coldly at the three people in front of him, and roared angrily.

"Where did this thief come from! How dare he injure someone in front of the county government office!"

Mu Zian ignored the constables and instead reached out to help the old woman who had fallen to the ground up.

Seeing that he was being ignored, the head constable instantly flew into a rage.

"I'm asking you a question!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Zian shot him a cold glare.

With just one glance, the head constable was so frightened that he froze on the spot, his limbs stiff.

At that moment, he seemed to see mountains of corpses and seas of blood, with bodies strewn across the fields, in those eyes!

Mu Zi'an stood with his hands behind his back, his spine seemingly capable of supporting the heavens and earth.

"Wenhe, Zilong!"

"exist."

"Anyone who dares to block my way will be killed without mercy!"

Mu Zian strode forward, with the old woman following closely behind.

The surrounding constables looked at each other in bewilderment.

The killing intent emanating from Mu Zi'an solidified into a tangible form.

At the end of the street, the Pei family mansion, draped with white silk ribbons, stood quietly!

Mu Zian took a step forward, and the constables took a step back.

Seeing this, the surrounding people followed suit as if by some strange impulse.

Take one step forward! Advance step by step!

Mu Zian's eyes were sharp and his steps were firm.

The crowd behind them grew larger and larger, stretching endlessly like a roaring river.

Though life may be as insignificant as an ant, one should aspire to great heights; though fate may be as fragile as paper, one should possess an indomitable spirit.

Seeing the suffering of people, how can we turn a blind eye?

He, Mu Zi'an, is not the Duke of Zhenguo who has been deeply poisoned by feudalism!

He received twenty years of education in the new China!

They are young people who grew up under the red flag!

He is a practitioner of Mr. Ziren's idea of ​​"Long live the people".

He's a tough guy, forged through wind and rain, working from 8 am to 10 pm in universities in other provinces!

The books they've read! I've read them!

Books they hadn't read! I read them too!

Throughout history, the only phrase written above is: "Help the weak and punish the strong, protect all people!"

In front of the Pei family mansion, scattered paper money was piled up all over the ground.

The white banners and ribbons on both sides fluttered in the wind! Countless white paper lanterns hung all over the walls.

Layers upon layers of ashes from burning paper money floated in the air.

It was broad daylight, yet the interior of the mansion was eerie and terrifying!

The servants at the door stepped forward to stop them, but were kicked away by Zhao Yun.

Mu Zian stepped into the Pei family without the slightest hesitation.

The mourning hall inside the mansion was eerily quiet, with only the flickering candlelight swaying in the wind.

A pitch-black coffin stood silently in the center of the hall.

Upon seeing Mu Zian's appearance, the Pei family members kneeling on the ground all looked up and stared at him.

Cold, sharp gazes shot in from all directions, like countless venomous snakes lurking in the shadows.

"The Duke of Zhenguo?"

A hoarse voice came from the darkness.

As the candlelight flickered, Pei Liang's face, now illuminated and now obscured, appeared before Mu Zi'an.

His face was thin and disheveled, and his once black hair had turned white overnight.

It was as if he had aged twenty years in an instant.

Pei Liang's face no longer held the confidence and composure he had before; instead, it was filled with endless exhaustion and desolation.

Pei Liang sat quietly beside the coffin, his scarlet eyes fixed on Mu Zi'an.

Their eyes met in mid-air.

The next moment, Pei Liang suddenly spoke.

You found out?

This seemingly random statement is puzzling.

Mu Zian didn't speak, but the sharp killing intent in his eyes already told Pei Liang the answer.

Pei Liang laughed heartily, but his laughter was tinged with sorrow.

"No wonder! No wonder!"

Pei Liang stroked the coffin beside him.

"So, all of this was planned by you?"

Mu Zian remained silent.

Pei Liang suddenly swept all the offerings in front of Pei Shaoji's coffin to the ground.

Then he glared fiercely at Mu Zian and said.

"Do you think you can destroy my Pei family like this?"

Mu Zian calmly looked at Pei Liang, who was somewhat deranged.

How will you know if you don't try?

Their conversation was completely baffling!

However, the murderous intent in their words made the already desolate mourning hall even colder.

"Shaoji! Shaoji! Where are you? Mother is coming to be with you."

A deranged woman rushed out from the back room.

The maids behind her couldn't hold her back no matter what they did.

Inside the mourning hall, the moment the woman saw Mu Zi'an, she suddenly went mad.

"It was you! You drove my son to his death! Give me back my son's life!"

"I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you!"

The crowd gathered outside the mourning hall gasped in shock at the sight.

Because the woman who went mad was none other than the current matriarch of the Pei family, Pei Liang's legal wife.

Once the most distinguished woman in the entire Qinghe County!

His son died, his wife went insane, and the future of his lineage was over!

The dignified head of the Pei family suddenly found himself all alone.

The fact that Pei Liang didn't go crazy with them was enough for Mu Zi'an to admire.

During the conversation, the old woman who had been following Mu Zi'an suddenly knelt down on the ground.
