Chapter 69 069 Two Little Rabbits
How could the power of the Rong family possibly defy Young Master Mu of Yuan Yuan Tian?
The Lin family was indeed unruly back then, and there were even rumors circulating that a cultivator at the Immortal Realm had emerged from the Lin clan. However, that Immortal Realm cultivator from the Lin family was casually killed by Mu Wuxian and vanished into oblivion, his very existence now a mystery.
The patriarch dislikes Xie Qingyu intensely, so why does he insist on accompanying her? Aren't the reasons quite clear? Ultimately, it's simply because the Rong and Xie families need an alliance. Otherwise, given Rong Yuejun's personality, they should have become enemies after their divorce.
Let alone the fact that Nan Yu is two-faced and has only just surrendered today, even if he had truly performed a great service and was extremely submissive, in this life-or-death situation, he should still be discarded like a gecko shedding its tail.
Nan Yu should also be more sensible.
The golden thread wrapped around her body, repeatedly chanting Mu Wuxian's decree, leaving everyone dumbfounded and utterly terrified.
Despite the others' complaints, Nan Yu remained oblivious. If it were someone else doing the same, Nan Yu, observing from the sidelines, might have been able to offer his own commentary as well.
But now that it was his turn to experience something so terrifying, Nan Yu's heart was completely in turmoil.
When you're submerged in water, everyone wants to pull you out.
Not to mention his illustrious life over the years, with countless lovers and numerous offspring.
His words were urgent and increasingly tactless: "Is the Rong family head just talking? If he really encountered such a thing, would he just abandon it? If it were your sister Rong Ying who was punished today, I wonder if the Rong family head could be so heartless."
Such a plea for favor was certainly not enough to move Rong Yuejun, but Nan Yu was in a state of panic and had no rhyme or reason.
Rong Yuejun's face was extremely ugly, and it was unclear what she was thinking. Upon hearing these words, her expression darkened, and she forcefully brushed them away.
She was naturally not happy.
Protecting one's own is also a persona. Rong Yuejun is good at winning people's hearts and has managed to win over those around her very well. No matter what outsiders say about how domineering Rong Yuejun is, she has a group of loyal confidants around her who are devoted to her.
But now, after using both kindness and force to subdue Nanyu, that high and mighty Young Master Mu has acted in this way, interfering for no reason.
Rong Yuejun was unhappy.
Although she was unhappy, she didn't say anything.
The golden light swirled around Nan Yu. This was the inner courtyard of the Rong family, which was originally protected by a magical array, making it difficult for messages from the outside to be transmitted privately. However, the golden light swirling around Nan Yu now represented Young Master Mu's message, rendering the Rong family's arrays seemingly useless.
The golden light swirled around Nan Yu, then entered his neck, transforming into a small golden seal.
Nan Yu stopped begging for mercy and collapsed to the ground, dumbfounded, as if he had lost his soul.
A mark was created, and within that mark was a Gu worm. If Nan Yu refused to obey, he would be devoured by the Gu worm, starting with his heart.
If one were to forcibly disobey, it would immediately alert Young Master Mu, and in a short time, Mu Wuxian's clones would likely arrive.
Nan Yu was like a puppet, utterly dejected and unable to move.
Rong Yuejun saw this and felt a chill run down her spine.
Although she had no feelings for Nan Yu, Rong Yuejun felt a pang of sympathy for him, like a rabbit mourning the death of a fox.
Young Master Mu is being far too domineering.
He is, after all, a ruler of a region. He is the sect leader of the Tianchi Sect, and although he is only at the third level of heaven, he still possesses considerable strength. Don't be fooled by Nan Yu's submissive demeanor; he is no less a formidable figure.
Rong Ying felt that this head of the Nan family couldn't even get into the Rong family's gate, but little did she know that this was Rong Yuejun's way of training people.
Over the years, although Nan Yu was treated coldly, he was always respectful and never lost his composure or manners.
Rong Yuejun was also secretly alarmed and unconsciously reminded herself to be careful and cautious, and to keep an eye on this person.
Yet this deep and calculating person was easily broken down by Young Master Mu. There was no scheming or trickery involved; it was simply straightforward and unpretentious.
Faced with absolute power, no fancy tricks are worth mentioning.
As her thoughts raced through her mind, Rong Ying couldn't help but take a deep breath, her eyes shining brightly.
With a wave of her hand, someone led the distraught Nan Yu away. Nan Yu was like a puppet, completely powerless to resist.
After being targeted by Mu Wuxian, Nan Yu was finished and had no future.
This person is no longer of any value.
Rong Yuejun is at the realm of immortals, and her mind can be described as extremely hard. Although she is very angry and hateful, she can no longer feel any fear.
But now, a sense of fear unconsciously crept into Rong Yuejun's heart.
At this moment, someone delivered a message; it was Xie Qingyu.
Her relationship with Xie Qingyu was very strange. They disliked each other, but were forced to be together by circumstances.
Xie Qingyu's first words were a question.
【Are you targeting Shen Zhiwei?】
[Intending to leverage the power of the Tianchi Sect? Therefore, they are now making a concerted effort to win over Nanyu and make him work for them.]
[But now that you've come, Young Master Mu is naturally displeased, so how could he allow you to be so presumptuous?]
As Xie Qingyu was questioning him, she couldn't help but recall the day she reunited with Shen Zhiwei.
Mu Wuxian, who usually resided in the Ice Palace and never left the house, suddenly appeared that day and searched Shen Zhiwei carefully.
She was, after all, his woman, and Xie Qingyu felt a surge of anger. He shouldn't have gone to see Shen Zhiwei; he knew she was sensible and understanding. But for some reason, he tried to win her over that day.
Besides the fact that the Shen mother and daughter were not as hostile as he had expected, perhaps it was also because he was secretly jealous.
Mu Wuxian was already an iceberg when we first met, but so what? Perhaps Young Master Mu is just that vulgar, wanting a beautiful woman.
Rong Yuejun couldn't help but laugh; Xie Qingyu's appearance was truly ridiculous.
Even though she loathed Shen Zhiwei, she couldn't believe that the Shen family could actually be so capable.
Who is Mu Wuxian? If he has any plans in mind, they must be of great importance, not something as trivial as love and romance.
Xie Qingyu, you're ridiculous!
【Who is Mu Wuxian? How could she be as infatuated with beauty as you think?】
You're just unwilling to admit it, but this Young Master Mu is no longer willing to lie low.
Xie Qingyu remained stunned for a long time, her expression changing, and then she sent no further messages.
He admitted that what Rong Yuejun said was true, and that he was indeed afraid. In fact, from beginning to end, he was just deceiving himself; he was unwilling to admit certain things.
Mu Wuxian was like a sharp knife hanging over his head; even a great cultivator from the upper realm felt uneasy and anxious.
Over the years, Xie Qingyu has put in a lot of effort, made many schemes, and won over many allies. But no matter how intricate his plans, they are insignificant in the face of absolute power.
Over the years, his greatest hope was that Mu Wuxian would truly remain secluded in the Ice Palace, or that his inner demons would flare up and cause him to perish. After all, such an unbalanced being should not exist in this world; perhaps fate, by its own design, would surely take him back.
However, after more than a decade of silence, Mu Wuxian is clearly not content to remain still, and has now made his move again.
In the Bixia Sect, Shen Zhiwei was admiring the four-colored pastries made by Mu Wuxian.
She also wanted to see how much Yin Wujiu had left, and cooking skills were obviously the key.
Mu Wuxian didn't know how to cook before, not because she was bad at it, but because she didn't know how.
Having been entrusted with important responsibilities from a young age and carrying the expectations of the entire Mu family, Mu Wuxian clearly needed to learn more important things. Naturally, she didn't bother learning anything boring or useless.
If you haven't learned it, you don't know it.
Although he may not be able to, it doesn't mean that Mu Wuxian lacks the potential.
Yin Wujiu learned to cook because Shen Zhiwei was a picky eater.
As a cultivator, one no longer needs grains, fruits, or livestock. However, when Shen Zhiwei is feeling down, eating something palatable can lift her spirits.
After blowing up the kitchen twice, Yin Wujiu gradually got the hang of it.
Now, the four kinds of pastries were placed in front of Shen Zhiwei.
Mu Wuxian was well-versed in the art of plating. She arranged four small pastries on a small plate, each one tiny and different in appearance. One of the pastries was even shaped into a little rabbit, making it very cute.
Judging by its appearance alone, it seems to taste pretty good too.
Shen Zhiwei ate a small rabbit in two bites; the taste was indeed quite good.
Back then, Yin Wujiu slaughtered the Kuxue Sect, which was then instigated by the Suxin Sect of the Second Heaven, and Lin Xuean was an elder of the Tianchi Sect at that time.
Shen Zhiwei also knew some news about the Tianchi Sect and pondered it silently. It seemed that Mu Wuxian quite approved of Yin Wujiu's experience, essentially considering it her own affair.
