A figure flew over and swung a long whip at Uncle Mu who was pointing and gesticulating. Uncle Mu was hit hard in the face and screamed in pain, holding his face.
Wherever the long whip went, there were constant screams. All the descendants of the Mu family were whipped, and none of them could escape. They all squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands and begged for mercy.
After a while, the situation was under control.
Lord Zeng held a whip in his hand, his face ashen. He had just left for one night and this happened.
"You guys are planning to rebel. It looks like you're itching for a beating."
Old Madam Mu looked at her injured children and grandchildren, annoyed and angry, "Master Zeng, this is an internal matter of our Mu family, it has nothing to do with you...ah."
Master Zeng whipped her on the head, causing her to scream, "Old woman, who are you talking to? Huh?"
He doesn't care how old the other person is, he just can't cause trouble for him.
Old Madam Mu's high spirits were shattered by a whip, and she finally felt afraid. The whip might not have caused much pain when it hit someone else, but it was excruciatingly painful when it hit herself.
"I was wrong, I was really wrong, but this matter was caused by Mu Wanqing. She hasn't returned for many days, and you don't care about it? You need to inform the government and arrest her..."
She deliberately shifted the focus and pushed the responsibility onto Mu Wanqing.
A carriage stopped in front of her. Lord Zeng put away his whip, hurried forward, and stood respectfully.
Everyone was stunned. Who was sitting in this carriage?
A slender hand reached out, lifted the curtain, revealing a delicate face.
It's Mu Wanqing! She's finally back!
She was wearing a dress with arrow sleeves the color of autumn fragrance, a jade crown on her head, and a necklace on her chest, looking like a young master from a wealthy family.
There was a commotion at the scene. So, Master Zeng left for one night to pick up Mu Wanqing? This was too much.
But, the more exaggerated things are yet to come.
Madam Mu's eyes were red with excitement. "Qing'er, you're back. Where are your father and elder brother?"
Mu Wanqing looked over and saw her horrible condition. Her eyes froze slightly, and a trace of anger flashed across them. "Mom, I'm back. They are in the carriage behind."
She jumped off the carriage swiftly, and Lord Zeng gave her a light support, "Be careful."
Others hadn't reacted yet, but the head of the Fang family, who had been watching silently, gasped. Something was wrong.
Old Madam Mu's eyes were bloodshot, all the new and old hatreds surged into her heart, and she rushed over to hit her, "Mu Wanqing."
Before she could get close to Mu Wanqing, she was kicked away by Lord Zeng. Her old face fell heavily to the ground, and the pain was unbearable.
She just felt her mouth full of blood, and when she opened her mouth she spat out two teeth.
She was completely stunned, she only had a few teeth left!
Another carriage also stopped, and Mr. Mu and his son jumped out quickly and rushed towards their family.
The couple, mother and son had not seen each other for many days, and their eyes were red when they met again after a long separation.
Master Mu looked at his wife's face and felt heartbroken.
Mu Zicheng couldn't believe his eyes. His mother and second brother's hair was disheveled and their clothes were messy, obviously having been torn apart.
"Mom, who hit you in the face?"
He thought that they would live well with the care of the officials.
Madam Mu's eyes were red and tears were streaming down her face. She looked at her husband and children with longing, "I'm glad you're back, I'm glad you're back. I'm fine."
Seeing her family return safely, she finally felt at ease and had nothing to ask for anymore.
It didn't matter if she got beaten, she didn't want to make a big deal out of it.
Mu Wanqing walked over slowly, with a hint of murderousness in her eyes. Anyone who dared to touch her mother must be tired of living.
"Who hit my mother? Stand up."
She was so powerful that even Old Lady Mu didn't dare to stand up. The little girl from Aunt Six shouted angrily, "She was the one who bullied Second Uncle's grandmother."
Her chubby little hand pointed at Old Madam Mu, who subconsciously turned her head away.
Mu Wanqing sneered, "You're so brave to bully my family while I'm away?"
Family is her Achilles' heel, and anyone who dares to offend is seeking death.
No matter how much Old Mrs. Mu planned, she never expected that Mu Wanqing would come back at this critical moment.
Now that things have come to this, she has made up her mind and doesn't believe that Mu Wanqing would dare to do anything to her.
"You ran off with a strange man, you fickle little..."
Mu Wanqing snatched the whip from Master Zeng and swung it out without hesitation, "Snap."
She had never played with a whip before, and she didn't control the strength well, so when she whipped, the direction was off and it hit Old Lady Mu's eyes.
Old Madam Mu was so frightened that she subconsciously protected her head and face with her hands. "You dare to hit me?"
Mu Wanqing waved her right hand. This weapon was not very suitable for her. "It's a bit tiring."
"Why don't you do it yourself? Let me do it." Lord Zeng bowed slightly and stretched out his hands.
Mu Wanqing put the whip in his hand and said, "I have always been a decent and gentleman, but I also believe in tooth for tooth and blood for blood. Master Zeng, thank you for your hard work."
"Yes." Lord Zeng responded respectfully and whipped him with the whip.
This is his weapon. He has excellent control over the force and can hit whatever he points.
For a moment, the only sounds that could be heard were Mrs. Mu’s hysterical screams, cries of pain, and pleas for mercy.
Every whip that hit Old Madam Mu also hit the hearts of countless people.
This is a deterrent and also a warning.
This is what happens if you dare to cause trouble on his territory.
After a while, Mrs. Mu was beaten until her body was covered in blood. Some members of the Mu family who stepped forward to stop it were also beaten and fled in all directions.
Lord Zeng was furious and said, "Put the shackles on these people and do not take them off until we reach the border."
"yes."
The Mu family members were howling like wolves and ghosts. If they had not taken off their shackles from the beginning and had not experienced the taste of freedom, they would not have collapsed like this.
Mu Wanqing watched coldly, her eyes were terrifyingly indifferent.
Mu Jinyao's eyes were wet and she was heartbroken. Why did they, as a family, come to this?
"Stop beating her. Someone might die. Third sister, grandma was wrong, but she was punished. Please spare her for her old age and frailty."
Mu Wanqing was very angry, and the consequences were serious. "How many times has this happened? I gave you a chance, but unfortunately, you didn't cherish it."
She has always respected life and didn't want to get her hands stained with blood, but that wasn't a reason for them to bully her again and again.
"In the final analysis, I am still too soft-hearted, and I made you think that the consequences of making mistakes are not terrible. Okay, I will change!"
The last sentence was murderous and exuded the chill of winter.
Mu Jinyao’s face turned pale. What else did she want?
Mu Wanqing raised her voice and said, "Master Zeng, just leave her a breath. She is too strong to die."
Old Madam Mu was dying, her face blurred with pain, "Mu Wanqing, you are a disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unjust little beast, you will be punished."
Lord Zeng's eyes darkened, "Brothers, beat her offspring hard. This is the result of not being morally upright."
This was obviously to vent Mu Wanqing's anger.
"If you want to blame someone, just blame your ancestors. It's her fault for not being able to cultivate herself and do her job. If she does something naughty again in the future, she will be held responsible."
Old Mrs. Mu's face turned pale. She cursed them in her heart but didn't dare to say anything else.
Mu Wanqing took out the best medicine to treat Madam Mu's wound. She was gentle and extremely careful.
Madam Mu Er only felt a cool sensation on her face, and the pain in the wound was not so severe. Where did this good medicine come from? "Miss Yu Si's hand is also injured. Can you help her? If she hadn't protected me today, I'm afraid..."
Sister Yu Xiaosi's hand was stepped on several times, and her little finger was fractured. Mu Wanqing frowned, "I'll fix your finger first, and then go to the next town to find a good doctor. Don't worry, I will cure you no matter how much it costs."
She clearly distinguished between gratitude and resentment and accepted this favor.
Miss Yu Si held her injured hand, terrified. She didn't know where she got the courage to rush over to save people.
Obviously, she hates getting involved in trouble the most.
But she doesn't regret it.
They had been living and eating together for the past month, and Mrs. Mu was a very gentle and kind woman who took good care of her.
Humans are not plants or trees, so who can be heartless?
Mu Wanqing used a handkerchief and a small branch she had picked up to fix Fourth Miss Yu's wound. "Just bear with it for now. It will be fine soon."
Her gentleness surprised Miss Yu Si.
Mu Wanqing looked at Mu Ziang, who had a cut on the corner of his mouth. He had already treated the wound.
"Second brother, tell me what happened."
"It's like this..." Mu Ziang immediately talked about what had just happened, without hiding anything, and told everything from beginning to end.
Mu Wanqing's face became more and more ugly. She slowly walked to Uncle Mu, who was lying on the ground pretending to be a corpse, and kicked him.
"Master Mu, I know you are a piece of shit, but I didn't know you were so vicious. You are indeed a bad person from the same bloodline."
Others might not be able to see through his intentions, but she saw through them immediately, and that was what made it even more disgusting.
We all have the surname Mu and are related by blood. You may not like it, but you cannot climb up by stepping on the corpses of your blood relatives.
"You are using two lives to pave the way for your position as the clan leader, and you want to restore your former authority? Clan leader, are you worthy of it?"
Uncle Mu felt deeply humiliated. When he became the clan leader, Mu Wanqing was not yet born.
He just wanted to take back what belonged to him, what's wrong with that?
In order to succeed, everything can be sacrificed.
Why can't they just be his stepping stones?
"I am not worthy, so how can you be worthy? A little girl is pointing fingers all day long and takes herself too seriously. Master Zeng, she is so arrogant and doesn't even take you seriously. How can you tolerate it? She is trying to seize power, your power."
He deliberately stirs up trouble and is always planning something with ill intentions.
He thought Lord Zeng would be furious and have a complete falling out with Mu Wanqing. After all, which man doesn't want power?
Unexpectedly, Master Zeng walked up to Mu Wanqing and saluted respectfully, "Zeng is willing to be Miss Mu's vanguard and obey Miss Mu's arrangements. The direction Miss Mu points her sword is the target of our action."
He expressed his loyalty in public, "Miss, from now on, your will is our will."
Everyone was stunned and felt like they were dreaming. Was he...going to give up his position as the top leader and let Mu Wanqing take over?
No way? No way? From now on, their fate will be in Mu Wanqing's hands?
Uncle Mu was in a terrible state. Was he blind or was he sick? How could he surrender to a thirteen-year-old girl? "You are crazy."
Master Zeng ignored him and looked at his companions, including Deputy Captain Li who had just run back. "Brothers, from today on, the highest leader of this team is Miss Mu San. Did you hear that?"
"I heard it." The officials were not disgusted. They recognized Miss Mu's ability. Besides, didn't they know what kind of person their leader was?
For him to be so impressed, something earth-shattering must have happened.
Yes, it is definitely a good thing, a good thing that is beneficial to them.
The situation changes in an instant.
Mu Wanqing smiled slightly. There is no construction without destruction. It’s time to destroy and then build.
All those who had just made things difficult for Madam Mu and her son changed their expressions, trembled, and regretted their actions terribly.
The time of reckoning has come!
