Chapter 256 Controlling the Mu Mansion
(4, 0);
Lin Yue spoke calmly and picked up some food for Mu Qingqing.
From beginning to end, Mu Zhan felt that this boy didn't even look at him much, but instead was very caring towards his daughter.
"Including my Mu Mansion, there are five mansions in total."
Mu Zhan said helplessly that he came here to find out the weakness of the armor, but before he got into the topic, he seemed to have been led by Lin Yue!
"Mu Mansion and Xue Mansion are naturally included. I also know roughly the other three mansions."
Touching his chin, Lin Yue smiled faintly, "If I ask you to rebel against Si Junlin, would Lord Mu agree?"
"How dare you!"
Mu Zhan's face changed and he stood up immediately. "You dare to interfere in the affairs of my Xuanmen, do you know that this is a capital crime?"
Mu Qingqing, who was standing by, was so frightened that her face turned pale.
This father has been busy since he was young and his relationship with her is very shallow.
So Mu Qingqing was afraid of her father, and it was the first time she saw him so angry.
"Master Mu, I think you know better than me whether Si Junlin is the best candidate for the future leader of Xuanmen."
Lin Yue continued calmly.
Mu Zhan's eyes narrowed, and he was surprised. This Lin Yue was not pretending to be calm, but was really calm!
It seems that he is not afraid of himself at all!
"Young Master Si is a man of great strategy and wisdom. It is hard for young people in Xuanmen to compare with him. How can he not be the best candidate for the master?"
Mu Zhan retorted that since Lin Yue knew a lot about Xuanmen, he would give a good rebuttal.
"Is this really what you think?" Lin Yue smiled faintly, "What about bloodline?"
As soon as these words came out, Mu Zhan's heart skipped a beat. "How did you know?"
"Although Xuantian Sect intended to conceal this matter, the truth will eventually come to light, Lord Mu."
Lin Yue picked up a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "You haven't answered my question yet."
Mu Zhan stared at Lin Yue warily, "Are you sent by the three opposing governments?"
"If I am, then the flaws in the Mu Mansion's armor today should be known to everyone in the eight Xuanmen Mansions.
Can Master Mu still talk to me so freely?"
"What exactly is your weakness, and how do you make up for it?" (5,0);
Lin Yue smiled. The more nervous Mu Zhan was, the easier it would be for him to control him. The Eight Palaces of Xuanmen were, to a large extent, the lifeblood of Xuanmen.
Once this lifeline is under his control, then even this gigantic quasi-emperor-level sect may not be uncontrollable!
Seeing Lin Yue's calm look, Mu Zhan knew that he couldn't force him, so he immediately put down his attitude and said with a smile: "It was I who lost my composure. Since you have come to my Mu Mansion, you have already shown your sincerity."
He thought for a while, then said seriously: "Alas, you must not tell others that it was I who said this, otherwise they will vent their anger on me and the Mu family will cease to exist in this world."
"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have let you in alone."
Lin Yue's vague words made Mu Zhan's eyes narrow. "Your Excellency means that Xue Hai is not a trustworthy person? But he has been with me for many years."
Lin Yue drank tea and said, "Master Mu, you are overthinking. Please continue."
Mu Zhan stopped suspecting Xue Hai and lowered his voice, "As for the bloodline, it is true that Young Master Si Junlin is not as orthodox as the eldest lady."
Of course Lin Yue knew that Xue Hai had at most slept with Mu Zhan's wife.
But it has not yet reached the point of betraying the Mu family.
However, if Lin Yue wants to gain Mu Zhan's trust, he naturally has to make Mu Zhan feel isolated and helpless from other angles.
"It's not that it's unorthodox, but Si Junlin is just an adopted son."
After taking a sip of tea, Lin Yue interrupted Mu Zhan.
This sentence made Mu Zhan stand up again, "Sir, this is the biggest secret of my Xuanmen, how did you know it?"
Mu Qingqing stared at Lin Yue in shock for a moment, forgetting to swallow the food in her mouth.
Si Junlin, is he an adopted son?
She actually heard this?
And judging from Mu Zhan's expression, it's probably true.
"Don't worry about how you knew that. What I want you to do now is to stand on Si Xiaoxian's side."
"Are you the young lady's man?"
Touching his chin, Lin Yue still clarified his position and said, "Si Xiaoxian and I did meet once, but our friendship was not deep. What I did was just for my own purpose, and she didn't know."
"This, but the eldest lady has always been indifferent to fame and fortune, and has been free and easy in the inner domain. Some of us old palace masters all think..." (5,0);
Mu Zhan looked embarrassed and hesitated to speak.
Lin Yue smiled, "Not working hard now doesn't mean I won't work hard in the future.
Moreover, Si Xiaoxian's cynicism is largely due to the presence of Si Junlin, and she doesn't want to overshadow Si Junlin, do you understand?"
Mu Zhan stared at Lin Yue solemnly, "Your Excellency is saying that the eldest lady's forging talent and cultivation talent are even better than the young master's."
"You could say that."
Nodding, Lin Yue said again: "Master Mu, I am not discussing with you now, but threatening you."
As soon as these words were spoken, Mu Zhan's face changed immediately, and even Mu Qingqing, who was standing next to him, had her hair standing on end!
No one had ever dared to say such things to her father.
Although Mu Qingqing felt that the atmosphere had become tense, she didn't know why she felt secretly happy.
Lin Yue was very happy that she could make her father angry.
"Your Excellency is too kind."
Mu Zhan suppressed his anger and said, "It's not impossible to support the young lady, but..."
"pen and ink."
Lin Yue raised his hand and said to Mu Qingqing, who immediately brought pen and ink.
Lin Yue wrote a few words and then handed it to Mu Zhan.
"This is……"
Mu Zhan raised his hands excitedly and said solemnly: "Excellent! Ingenious! Your attainments in forging are probably not inferior to the young master."
"Si Junlin is competing with me?"
Raising his eyebrows, Lin Yue smiled helplessly, "Never mind, this is just the weakness of the armor. As for how to make up for it, I naturally have a way.
It just depends on what decision Palace Master Mu makes."
Mu Zhan didn't even think about it, and smiled and said, "Young Master, you didn't tell this secret to the other seven mansions, and you are willing to help my Mu Mansion repair the defects. I would like to thank you for this."
After that, he continued, "The battle for the Earth Ranking will begin in three days. Have you heard of it?"
Lin Yue nodded, "The Earth Ranking is the only way for Xuanmen and Eight Prefectures disciples to enter the Xuanmen Elder Hall. Only by winning the Earth Ranking can you become a Xuanmen Heaven Ranking and be promoted to the Elder Hall immediately."
After a long sigh, Mu Zhan said, "You really know everything about my Xuanmen.
Yes, the lords of the eight prefectures are from the Elders’ Hall, but I guess the reason why the young master held the Earth Ranking Battle is to train his own people to enter the Elders’ Hall. ” (5,0);
"It's as expected. His identity is the reason."
Lin Yue reminded.
Mu Zhan's expression suddenly changed, "Young Master will kill us old subjects?"
