Mu Hanyan felt warm in her heart. Although the intrigues within the Zong family were even more intense than those within the Mu family of Black Stone City, their attitudes towards foreign enemies were surprisingly consistent.
They were willing to fight to the death behind closed doors, but when facing foreign enemies, they were determined and united, which made her feel very relieved.
Mu Hanyan smiled faintly at the complicated expressions on the faces of the Mu family members. If it had been someone else, she might have really been ready to run away, but now, there was no need for that.
"Our Mu family is large, so it's inevitable that there will be a few unfilial sons, but I don't know who Senior He is talking about?" The Supreme Elder pondered for a moment and said.
As the supreme elder, he certainly couldn't just watch his Mu family members being bullied by outsiders. However, others came to seek justice, and it was natural for him to take this opportunity to teach Mu Hanyan a lesson, so there was still some joy in his eyes.
"Mu Hanyan, it's Mu Hanyan! He relies on his strength and the support of the Mu family. He doesn't take us, the children of aristocratic families, seriously at all and bullies us in every way!" He Qingwei said confidently with the support of his ancestors.
"So it's him." The Grand Elder had already guessed who their target was, but he still pretended to be suddenly enlightened and said, "Mu Hanyan is arrogant and has been causing trouble everywhere. I was just about to punish him. How about this? Today, in front of Senior He, I will teach him a lesson and give the He family an explanation."
Seeing that the Grand Elder spoke so decisively, all the children of the Mu family sighed secretly. If the Grand Elder was just using the question of feeling to make a point before, and Mu Hanyan still had the opportunity to ramble and make excuses, now that He Changzai and his grandson had arrived, he was afraid that he would not even have the chance to quibble.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Supreme Elder might punish him by deducting half a year's salary, which would be a light punishment. No one knows how he will be punished!
Alas, Mu Hanyan’s luck is really too bad. The ancestor of the He family could have come at any other time, but had to come at this critical moment!
"Okay, then I'll see how you give our He family an explanation." He Changzai just wanted to help the younger generation of the He family and spread the news of his return to the capital. It was to make a name for himself and to help the He family. He didn't want to take action against a younger generation personally. After listening to the words of the Supreme Elder, he said coldly.
"Mu Hanyan, get out here!" The Supreme Elder shouted sternly, and an invisible pressure enveloped the crowd below.
Under the intimidation of that pressure, all the members of the Mu family were horrified and involuntarily took a few steps away. Then they looked at Mu Hanyan, who was standing alone in the middle, with sympathy and prayed for him secretly in their hearts.
However, what puzzled them was that there was not a trace of uneasiness or fear on Mu Hanyan's face. Instead, she smiled unusually brightly.
"Old drunkard, what a fate!"
Just when everyone was puzzled, a surprising scene happened. Mu Hanyan spread out her hands and said to the ancestor of the He family with a smile on her face.
Looking at Mu Hanyan's nonchalant and carefree face, everyone around was so shocked that they were speechless.
Although he has a red nose and carries a big wine bottle, and you can smell the alcohol on him from a distance, it is not an slander to call him an old drunkard.
After all, this is the ancestor of the He family. No matter in seniority or title, he is much higher than the supreme elder of their Mu family. You actually dare to call him an old drunkard. This obviously shows that you don't take others seriously. It can even be said to be a humiliation.
If the He family's ancestor came to visit a friend and reminisce about the past, he might have spared you this time because of your youth and ignorance. However, he came to you to accuse you of an offense, and you actually dared to be so rude. This is simply courting death.
For fear of being implicated, everyone took a few steps back.
Not to mention them, even He Qingwei was stunned.
This Mu Hanyan is so arrogant and presumptuous that he even dares to humiliate the ancestor of their He family. He is worthy of being the number one playboy in the capital. If he didn't have such a deep grudge against Mu Hanyan, he would have been unable to help but admire him.
When he came to his senses, He Qingwei was filled with excitement and excitement again. His ancestor's bad temper had been famous in the capital for hundreds of years. Mu Hanyan actually dared to humiliate him. Isn't that courting death?
From now on, I’m afraid there will no longer be a person named Mu Hanyan in the capital!
The Grand Elder also had a dark look on his face. As the Grand Elder, no matter how wrong Mu Hanyan was, he could not just watch Mu Hanyan being bullied by outsiders. It was not that he loved this junior very much - in fact, he was so angry that he wanted to slap Mu Hanyan half to death to vent his hatred, but as an elder of the clan, he had to consider the clan's reputation.
No matter how wrong one's descendants are, they should be taught a lesson, and it is not the turn of outsiders to interfere.
So he had already decided to teach Mu Hanyan a lesson in front of He Changzai. This would not only vent his anger, but also give He Changzai an explanation and avoid a head-on conflict with him.
But he never dreamed that Mu Hanyan was so ignorant of the consequences and was disrespectful to He Changzai in front of so many people.
"You little bastard, if you want to die, go out and find it yourself. Why are you dragging me along?" The Supreme Elder cursed inwardly, feeling a headache as big as a bucket.
What if He Changzai, in a fit of rage and shame, disregarded his status and attacked? Should he do it or not? If he didn't, he would have to watch his descendant being slapped to death by He Changzai. How would he survive in the clan and face the world? If he did, would he be a match for He Changzai?
He'd been tricked again! The Grand Elder suddenly realized something. He'd witnessed Mu Hanyan's scheming and cunning with his own eyes, so how could he be so reckless? Could he have done it on purpose?
He knew that he would not be able to get away with it today, so he simply angered He Changzai and forced himself into a difficult situation. No matter whether he took action or not, the situation would not end well in the end.
The more the Grand Elder thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was correct, and he hated Mu Hanyan in his heart.
No, we must not let his evil plan succeed!
"How dare you! How dare you be so rude to Senior He? Kneel down!" The Supreme Elder finally had a chance to think of a solution quickly. He knew that he couldn't let He Changzai lose his temper first, and he had to strike first, so he shouted at Mu Hanyan angrily.
"Mu Hanyan, you are so bold that you dare to disrespect my ancestors. Let's see who can protect you now!" He Qingwei could see what the Supreme Elder was planning and took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire.
"Shut up! Do you have the right to talk here?" He Changzai glared at He Qingwei and walked straight towards Mu Hanyan.
Although he was scolded by the ancestor, He Qingwei didn't care at all.
Angry, the ancestor is angry, Mu Hanyan, I want to see how you die this time! He Qingwei was so excited that his fat face was shaking.
