Just as the sky was getting light, a tragic wail resounded throughout the entire Mu family secret realm.
Old Master Mu, who was meditating and practicing, slowly opened his eyes, frowned slightly, and flashed to the place where the wailing was. Just as he was about to scold, he saw an old man holding a pile of broken jade tablets in his hands and crying bitterly.
Old Master Mu was dumbfounded. This jade token was nothing else but a soul token that was connected to a trace of the soul of the Mu family members. It was an important proof that could detect whether the Mu family members were alive.
Death in glory!
Such a huge pile, a feeling of suffocation surged into Mr. Mu's head. He pointed at the pile of broken jade with a dizzy head and spoke tremblingly:
"What's going on with these jade tokens? Is there something wrong?"
The old man, who was the elder in charge of guarding the soul tablet, held up the jade tablet with his skinny hands.
"I am to blame! After not seeing each other for one night, almost all the younger generation of the family were killed or injured. Only a few survived."
Old Master Mu's body trembled violently, and he seemed to have aged ten years. He suppressed his anger:
"Check it for me, check it thoroughly!"
The entire Mu family was shaken. Almost all of the geniuses of the younger generation of the Mu family died, with only a few still alive.
When the Mu family saw the miserable state of the Mu family's genius, some young boys and girls who were still young at heart ran away without looking back, retching on the side.
Miserable, it's really too miserable...
Every genius's courtyard is equipped with a certain number of maids and attendants, but without exception, all of these people died!
The entire yard was covered in dried dark red blood. The deaths of the Mu family's geniuses were extremely tragic, and not a single body was intact!
There were even a few people in the room with nothing but blood stains all over the room, and not even their bodies could be seen.
At the request of Mr. Mu, all the Mu family prodigies, whether they have a physical body or not, must be buried properly.
It can be said that most of the Mu family's future was cut off in one night. Without the genius, their Mu family was destined to be divided up by other families and would no longer be able to gain a foothold, let alone continue to control the southwest region.
Old Master Mu's face was ashen the whole time. He was in a high position, looking at the corpses covered with white cloth, his heart bleeding.
"Have you found out?"
Old Master Mu's voice was hoarse, with endless anger rolling in his eyes. It had been so many years since the Mu family suffered such a big loss!
All the Mu family members who held high positions in the Mu family had bloodshot eyes at this moment. Those who died were all their most proud descendants!
Their sons, daughters, grandsons, and granddaughters...this is going to make their Mu family extinct!
The higher the level of cultivation, the harder it is to produce offspring. This time, no less than two hundred Mu family geniuses died, almost all of whom were Mu family geniuses from the Nascent Soul stage to the Spirit Severing stage.
"Reporting to the Patriarch, this matter is indeed strange. We didn't detect any human presence at the scene, and there was a corpse at the entrance to the secret realm, so I suspect that person came in from outside the secret realm!"
Someone was crawling on the ground, answering Grandpa Mu's questions in a trembling voice.
Old Master Mu's old eyes looked into the distance and he spoke slowly:
"Do you think it could be that guy, the Young Master of the Ye family?"
The Mu family members looked at each other, most of them shook their heads, and one person stood up:
"Master, the Young Master of the Ye Family is only in the early Nascent Soul stage. Even if he has the strength to defeat a Spirit Severing, how could we not notice him attacking in the Mu Family Secret Realm?
And what worries me most is that there is something fishy about the death of my Mu family's genius!"
"What's strange?"
Old Master Mu's eyes fell on the person who spoke.
The man bowed:
"I'd like to ask, how did the Ye family's young master, an outsider, know the exact location where the Mu family's genius resides? And why did he bypass the strongest genius among them, Yan Jun?"
The man paused and slowly said:
"Unless there's a thief in the Mu family, there's no way Ye Feng would know that Yan Jun is capable of fighting a combined force, and therefore give up fighting him to avoid disturbing others. He even has the ability to accurately find out the residences of all the Mu family's geniuses!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar. All the members of the Mu family looked at each other, looking a little at a loss.
It is a taboo to have a thief in a noble family!
Especially the high-level people who know the secrets of the aristocratic families are thieves, which is something that no aristocratic family can tolerate.
Those who are family members but steal and help other families are despised by everyone. If someone can betray his own family, what else can he not betray?
Old Master Mu glanced at all the members of the Mu family in the audience with a heavy gaze. At this moment, he actually had the illusion that the whole world was his enemy.
It seemed as if all the members of the Mu family below might have betrayed the Mu family and defected to someone else.
"Master, I have a different opinion!"
An old man with an eagle-like face walked out of the crowd. He was the fifth elder of the Mu family!
"What different opinions do the Fifth Elders have?"
Old Master Mu looked at the fifth elder and said in a deep voice.
"Master, there is no way that Ye Feng could have slaughtered the Mu family's genius!"
The fifth elder spoke with a solemn oath.
"Why do you say that?"
Not only Mr. Mu, but even the Mu family members nearby looked at the Fifth Elder with suspicion. You know, everyone is now wondering who is the thief who led the young master of the Ye family to kill people wantonly in the Mu family.
The Fifth Elder's words undoubtedly put him directly in the spotlight. In this situation, he was still speaking for Ye Feng. Was he trying to cry "the thief is thief"?
The fifth elder sensed something was wrong with the expressions of the people around him and quickly spoke:
"Master, from what I understand, although the Ye family's young master is powerful, how could he kill our Mu family's genius without alerting all of us?! Isn't this very strange?"
"continue"
Old Master Mu nodded thoughtfully. What the Fifth Elder said made sense. It was indeed the case.
No matter what, Ye Feng is only in the early stage of the Nascent Soul, but his cultivation level is suppressed by the powerful people in the fairyland, and now he can also display the strength of overcoming the nine tribulations. If Ye Feng comes in to slaughter the geniuses of the Mu family, he will definitely attract his attention.
The fifth elder continued:
"I think it's certain that there's a thief in my Mu family, and he's in a high position! But the one who did this must be at the Fusion level, or even at the Mahayana level! Even if the Young Master of the Ye family is incredibly powerful, there's no way he could have killed so many people without us knowing!
And I found out that there was a transfer of powerful people in the palace last night!"
Old Master Mu frowned slightly. The royal palace that the fifth elder was talking about was actually his younger brother's family. He and his younger brother had different ideas back then, so they separated.
His younger brother founded the Mu Palace, which existed directly in the secular world and was as powerful as the Mu family.
In name, the Prince Mu's Mansion belonged to the Mu family, but he knew in his heart that the Prince Mu's Mansion was relatively independent.
The Mu Palace neither obeys the Mu family's orders nor has the Mu family bearing the pressure from the Xiao family, so life is very free and comfortable.
Old Master Mu frowned. Could it be that his younger brother really did it?
