After all these events, the head of the Mu family finally believed that Dongfang Mian might actually be able to cure his wife. When asked, Dongfang Mian simply replied:
“I haven’t seen the condition of the matriarch’s wife before, and I can’t guarantee that she can be cured. But if the matriarch insists on stopping me, and if your wife really suffers misfortune in the future… I think Mu Bai will definitely not forgive you.”
Dongfang Mian's words struck a chord with the Mu family head. Yes, if he had stopped Dongfang Mian today, he might have truly lost this son in the future.
"Mu Bai, take Miss Dongfang to see your mother," the Mu family head said without further hesitation.
Mu Bai jumped up excitedly, grabbed Dongfang Mian's hand and left. Even though the elders wanted to stop them, they didn't dare to speak. Don't ask why, because that Poison Mother hadn't put away her and was still watching them intently.
After Mu Bai left, the head of the Mu family sat in his seat with a worried expression, unsure whether his decision was right or wrong.
“You won’t regret your decision,” the Mu family head said to the unremarkable man as he looked up.
"I hope so," the head of the Mu family said, though he wasn't entirely confident.
Ah Ju jumped onto the table, picked up a fruit and handed it to Ah Hua, then took one for herself, took a bite and said, "Old man, you can put your mind at ease. There's no disease that Ah Mian can't cure. You'd better take care of your health and hurry up and get another one. I don't think your young master is very smart."
The elders agreed wholeheartedly, saying that if they were smart, they wouldn't have brought these guys back like that.
The head of the Mu family found it amusing; he never imagined that he would one day be called an old man by a beast pet.
Just as everyone was anxiously waiting for news from Dongfang Mian, a commotion suddenly broke out outside.
"Who's making a racket outside?" the head of the Mu family said unhappily.
A clansman rushed in and reported, "Reporting to the patriarch, it is Second Master Mu and Third Master Mu."
The head of the Mu family frowned. His two good-for-nothing younger brothers were always causing trouble. "Let them in."
Soon, two men who looked similar to the head of the Mu family walked in. Their bodies reeked of rouge and alcohol, causing everyone in the room to frown.
"You two have been out fooling around again? You're both Saint Venerable Realm cultivators, yet you don't know how to cultivate and all you do is cause trouble for the clan every day," said the Mu family head.
"Brother, I don't like what you're saying. How could we be causing trouble for the clan? If it weren't for me and the third brother working hard every day to bring business to the clan, would you be able to study medicine so peacefully every day?" Second Master Mu said with dissatisfaction.
“That’s right, elder brother, what you’re saying is utterly heartless. My second brother and I are only thinking of the good of the clan, and you’ve misunderstood us like this. No, you must apologize to us in front of everyone in the clan,” said Master Mu.
The head of the Mu family said irritably, "The clan's business would be well managed even without you two. Do you really think I don't know how much benefit you two have taken from the clan under the guise of helping the clan over the years?"
Master Mu the Second and Master Mu the Third immediately became furious, sitting on the ground and crying and shouting without any regard for their image, claiming that the head of the Mu family had wronged them.
The head of the Mu family only had his wife on his mind, and had no interest in arguing with the two of them about such trivial matters. He called in someone to kick out Second Master Mu and Third Master Mu.
Seeing the head of the Mu family act so decisively, the two men shouted even louder, and the clansmen were at a loss for what to do.
