"What are you looking at? I raised my daughter with great difficulty, and I treat her like a treasure. If anyone dares to kidnap her, I will beat him to death. What's the problem with that?" Mu Ruian looked at Ye Lanxuan and others with the eyes of a mentally retarded person.
"I'd like to marry into your family."
Ye Lanxuan and Fen Qianji said at the same time.
"That can be considered." Mu Ruian's expression finally looked better after hearing what the two said.
"Dad." Mu Hanyan's voice was cold, but everyone could hear the suppressed anger in her tone. There was no doubt that if she continued to nag, she would explode.
"Ah, haha, Dad was just joking." Mu Ruian laughed dryly twice, then straightened his face and shouted angrily to the people below, "Alright, since you have become my disciple, you should perform the ceremony. Serve me tea."
After the three of them knelt down solemnly to offer tea, Mu Ruian waved his hand impatiently and asked them to leave.
"Daughter, you just said you had something to ask me. What is it?" Mu Ruian asked with a smile.
"Dad, go wash your face first. There's still eye boogers in your eyes." Mu Hanyan said with disgust.
"Uh..." Mu Ruian's smile froze, and he ran back like the wind, and came back a moment later. When he came back, he had already finished washing up.
"What does my daughter want to ask?" Mu Ruian exhaled, and after smelling his own breath, he moved closer to Mu Hanyan.
"This is it." Mu Hanyan opened his collar and took out an egg. "Dad, look, what kind of egg is this?"
"This..." Mu Ruian's expression turned serious when he saw the egg. "Daughter, tell me first, where did you get this egg?"
"Phoenix Valley. At the deepest bottom of the lake..." Mu Hanyan told Mu Ruian in detail the process of obtaining the egg.
"There's no doubt about it, this is a phoenix egg." Mu Ruian said solemnly and confidently, "Everyone thinks it's just a legend that phoenixes once lived in Phoenix Valley, but that's not the case. It's true, but very few people know about it now."
"Then how do you know, Dad?" Mu Hanyan asked doubtfully.
"Because this is passed down from our ancestors." Mu Ruian suddenly made a hand seal to block out the outside world, then slowly said, "Rumor has it that an ancestor of our Mu family was friends with this Phoenix. Friends, not slaves!"
"This phoenix?" Mu Hanyan interrupted, "Wait, Dad, are you talking about this phoenix? The egg in my hand?"
"Yes. It's this phoenix." Mu Ruian answered with certainty.
"But this is just an egg, not a phoenix." Mu Hanyan felt a little dizzy.
"Phoenix, rebirth from the ashes. Have you heard of it?" Mu Ruian said mysteriously.
Mu Hanyan nodded. These were just legends, and she never took them seriously.
"Our Mu family had an ancestor who became friends with the only phoenix in the world. Why was it the only one? Because the parents of this phoenix had long ago shattered the void and traveled to another world millions of years ago. So, this phoenix was the only one left in this world. Later, by chance, this phoenix met one of our ancestors, got to know each other, and became very good friends. However, despite the great strength of that ancestor, she still reached the end of her life. She still had to experience life and death, and reincarnation. When she passed away, the phoenix wept blood, committed suicide, and entered Nirvana and was reborn. I look forward to meeting his best friend again and renewing our friendship."
Mu Hanyan was completely stunned. Is there such a bizarre story?
"Then, Dad, what you mean is..." Mu Hanyan looked at the phoenix egg in her hand stupidly, then touched it gently, and the feeling of intimacy became stronger and stronger.
"That's right, this egg should be waiting for you. Otherwise, do you think you can enter the Crystal Palace so smoothly?" Mu Ruian said affirmatively.
"He is waiting for me? How can I hatch this egg?" Mu Hanyan was a little excited.
"Inject it with Qi. He should wake up when he senses the familiar Qi." Mu Ruian thought for a moment and said, "But, I remember the documents left by my ancestors that say one must reach the level of Sword Saint to hatch. Otherwise, not only will it fail to hatch, but it will also suffer backlash."
"Ah..." Mu Hanyan sighed in disappointment. Her current strength was at the peak of the Great Swordsman level. Although she was just a little short, this was extremely difficult. It seemed that if she wanted to hatch the phoenix egg, she would have to intensify her training.
"Work hard." Mu Ruian certainly wanted to see his lazy daughter become diligent. Mu Hanyan's talent was even more outstanding than outsiders thought, but his daughter inherited his laziness and didn't put her all into her training. Otherwise, at her age, she should have reached the level of Sword Saint. Now that his daughter was determined to practice diligently, he was naturally comforted.
"Dad, you said before that this phoenix egg should be waiting for me." Mu Hanyan suddenly laughed and said slowly to Mu Ruian.
"That's right." Mu Ruian didn't know why his daughter suddenly said this, but he nodded anyway.
"You said that Fenghuang was friends with an ancestor of the Mu family." Mu Hanyan continued slowly.
"That's right..." Mu Ruian saw the sly smile on Mu Hanyan's face at this time. He didn't understand what his daughter meant, saying that she was a fool. His face turned black, and he suddenly got up and roared, his voice almost blowing the whole palace away, "You unfilial daughter, wait and see, I'm going to teach you a lesson today!" She was really bold to want to take advantage of him.
When Ye Lanxuan and the others heard the sound, they all turned to look at the source of the sound, with a hint of worry between their brows.
"Brother, don't worry. Master must be joking with Senior Sister. Everyone knows that Master dotes on Senior Sister the most. Otherwise, why would Master say that he would beat to death whoever Senior Sister falls in love with?" Jin Yuguang comforted the two senior brothers carelessly.
Ye Lanxuan and Fen Qianji turned their heads at the same time, looking at Jin Yuguang with deep eyes, which made Jin Yuguang feel uneasy.
"By the way, I would have forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it. You seem to have heard a lot of things you shouldn't have heard today." Ye Lanxuan said sinisterly.
"Should I silence you or kill you?" Fen Qianji added sinisterly.
"No, no, I didn't hear anything. I'm just a passing fish. Goodbye, brothers! I'm going to find my eldest brother to study hard. I want to practice diligently and make our Fuhua Peak flourish in the future." Jin Yuguang said anxiously, then ran away. Tears were already flowing in his heart. Sob, these two brothers are really scary.
After watching Jin Yuguang's back disappear, Ye Lanxun and the other man withdrew their gazes. Then they looked at each other, snorted coldly at the same time, withdrew their gazes, and left.
