Chapter 358
Lin Xie and Ye Shi talked for a while and then were called away.
Li Fei watched Ye Shi leave and twitched his lips strangely.
"Mr. Bai has a really good temper, not at all like what the outside world says." Li Fei couldn't help but say.
Lin Xie nodded and said, "Yes!" It was rumored outside that Mu Chen had a hot temper and would avenge any grudge he had and kill people like crazy. Bai Shao was just someone who followed Mu Chen around and helped him commit atrocities.
"Young Master, what do you think?" Li Fei asked.
Lin Xie lowered his head, a slight blush flashing across his face. He felt a little expectant, yet also a little confused. "I don't know either."
A man like Mu Yuanfeng is much stronger than Yu Jin.
In fact, Lin Xie had been attracted to him before, but because of his appearance, he did not think too much about it. And now, because of Mu Yuanfeng's identity, Lin Xie did not dare to think too much about it.
"Young Master, how is Mr. Mu's cooking skills?" Li Fei asked curiously.
Lin Xie smiled and said, "It's quite extraordinary!"
Muchen’s cooking skills are so good. The food he makes is not only delicious, but also full of vitality, making people want to swallow their tongues. Young Master Bai is so lucky!
"Young Master, you are so lucky that you can actually eat the food prepared by a ninth-level alchemist." Li Fei couldn't help but say.
Yes! He would never have dreamed of eating food made by a ninth-level alchemist! "This is all thanks to Mr. Bai." Lin Xie said bewilderedly.
Lin Xie's mood was complicated, and the communication jade pendant in his hand suddenly rang.
Lin Xie took out the communication order and looked at it, frowning involuntarily.
Li Fei looked at Lin Xie and asked, "Seventh Young Master, is this a message from the family elders?"
Lin Xie nodded and said, "Yes."
"What did the elder say?" Li Fei asked.
Lin Xie smiled bitterly. Ever since he was disfigured, everyone in the family had been cold to him, as if he was a useless piece of mud. Now a bunch of family elders had sent him messages, asking about his well-being. Lin Xie felt goosebumps all over his body.
"The letter said that right after Mu Chen left, Luo He was visited by his enemies. His dantian was destroyed, and he became a cripple. He will never be able to refine pills in his life." Lin Xie said with a frown.
Li Fei curled his lips and said with a gloating look, "Serves you right."
Lin Xie nodded. It was what he deserved! However, those people were really fast.
But, it’s true, opportunities to please Muchen don’t come often.
Luo He had offended Muchen badly, and many people wanted to show themselves in front of Muchen.
The yard where Luo He stayed was rented. Mu Yuanfeng's alchemy furnace was still there and no one dared to move it. It was said that there were countless weapon refiners and alchemists who went to watch, and many of them were curious about Mu Chen's weapon refining works a few years ago.
"Something happened to Luo He, what about the Lin family?" Li Fei asked.
Lin Xie pursed his lips and said worriedly, "It's okay for now."
The Lin family also had a hand in Mu Yuanfeng's affairs, but many people are still watching. If Mu Chen had any intention, the Lin family would immediately suffer a devastating disaster with just one word from him.
"Miss, you have wronged Master Mu Dan. I'm afraid..." Li Fei said with some embarrassment.
Lin Xie sighed lightly and couldn't help but clench his fists. She had gone too far in the matter of Lin Yu. At that time, the elders of the family all stood on Lin Yu's side in order to please Luo He and protect Lin Yu. If Mu Yuanfeng was not Mu Chen's father, then his life would be ruined.
The elder's letter also said that Yu Jin had a conflict with someone on his way back to the Yu family, and his leg was broken, so he would never be able to stand up again in his life.
Luo He was disabled, Yu Jin was in trouble, and the Lin family had no movement for the time being because of his relationship with Mu Yuanfeng. However, in fact, Lin Yu was largely responsible for this matter, so many people were keeping an eye on the Lin family at this time.
The messages sent by several elders were similar. They all confessed the family's attitude towards him at the end, and then asked him to say good things in front of Muchen, hoping that he could get in touch with Muchen.
…………
"Seventh Young Master, are you looking for me?" Mu Chen asked Lin Xie with a casual look on his face.
Lin Xie nodded and said, "I've been bothering you for a long time. I'd like to take my leave now."
Mu Chen looked at Lin Xie and asked in confusion, "Goodbye? But I heard that father and you have already secretly decided to spend your lives together! Aren't you going to stay with father?"
Lin Xie's face suddenly turned red. He had thought of all of Mu Chen's reactions, but he had never thought of this one. People outside said that Mu Chen was cold-blooded, cunning, and versatile... But no one said that Mu Chen was actually unreliable!
"Master Mu Dan, do you mind me being with your father?" Lin Xie asked.
Mu Chen put his hands behind his back and said as a matter of course, "Why should I mind? I asked a fortune teller to compare your horoscopes, and there's no conflict."
Li Fei stood behind Lin Xie, looking at Mu Chen stupidly, stunned.
Lin Xie looked at Mu Chen and couldn't help but choked up. The genius's way of thinking was different from his after all!
Lin Xie sighed lightly and said, "Your father is so outstanding. I..." I'm afraid I'm not worthy of him.
"Father will definitely be happy to hear you say that he is excellent." Mu Chen interrupted Lin Xie.
Lin Xie: “…”
Mu Chen looked at Lin Xie and said, "Seventh Young Master, you've been here for so many days, why haven't you had any time to communicate with your father?"
Lin Xie: “…”
Lin Xie looked at Mu Chen and wanted to say something, but Mu Chen stood up and said, "Mr. Lin, I have something else to do. If you have anything to say, please discuss it with your father."
Lin Xie: “…”
"Mr. Mu, I..." Lin Xie called out to Mu Chen.
Mu Chen turned around and smiled at Lin Xie. He interrupted Lin Xie again and said, "Mr. Lin, you are really beautiful. If you are willing to marry my father, I believe it will be a blessing for him."
Lin Xie: “…”
Mu Chen smiled and left without hesitation.
Li Fei stared at Lin Xie's back, unable to recover for a long time. "Mr. Mu's personality is really special!"
Lin Xie smiled bitterly and said, "That's right."
Mu Chen is actually such a person. Those rumors are complete nonsense.
Before, he thought that Mu Chen would oppose Mu Yuanfeng's affairs, but in the end, Mu Chen had such an attitude, as if he couldn't wait to "marry" Mu Yuanfeng away.
Lin Xie looked at Mu Chen's back, and felt a little more expectant in his heart.
…………
Mu Chen walked into the Bai family's weapon refining room.
"You're here? Have you settled your father's affairs?" Ling Chuan asked.
Mu Chen nodded and said, "Everything has been settled."
"The seventh young master of the Lin family is good, but his family is..." not so good.
"If Lin Xie were to marry my father, she would be a member of the Mu family, and her relationship with the Lin family would be nothing." Mu Chen said lightly.
Ling Chuan nodded and said, "With your father's status, it's difficult to find someone who doesn't have ulterior motives. The seventh young master of the Lin family is a good person." As for the Lin family, it's just a small family and can't cause any trouble.
Mu Chen nodded and said, "I think so too."
"Let's not talk about this. Your alchemy skills have already advanced to the ninth level. With the help of your father-in-law and I, it shouldn't be difficult for you to advance to the late eighth or even ninth level in your weapon refining and formation skills. However, we can't help you with the art of inscriptions and talismans." Ling Chuan said helplessly.
Different fields are like different mountains. Although the five arts are related to each other, they have been independent for a long time and the connections are ultimately limited.
Mu Chen pursed his lips and said, "Actually, the soul power of Zhuang Tianyang that I absorbed contained some knowledge about inscriptions and talismans. Unfortunately, I was too anxious at the time and didn't preserve all of its soul power." Relying on these fragmented memories, it is still possible for these two techniques to enter the late eighth level.
Ling Chuan smiled helplessly and said, "What are you thinking? In that situation, of course, saving your life was the most important thing."
Mu Chen nodded and said, "I understand, but when I think about it, I still feel a little regretful."
"Now that you have gained such great benefits, don't complain. Greedy people are always greedy." Ling Chuan shook his head helplessly.
Mu Chen tilted his head, smiled, and said, "Grandpa, I'm just thinking about it."
Ling Chuan looked at Mu Chen and said, "Regarding the inscriptions and talismans, what are your plans?"
"I plan to walk around and take a look after the auction is over." Mu Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
Ling Chuan nodded and said, "Okay."
Advancing to the Martial Saint requires a good state of mind. Traveling around will also help improve your state of mind. Mu Chen is already an eight-star Martial Lord. Mu Chen has a variety of methods. Although he is already a three-star Martial Saint, he may not be able to win if he really fights against Mu Chen.
"Before you leave, I will refine a few ninth-level magic weapons for you to save your life." Ling Chuan thought for a while and said.
If Muchen leaves, Yanxing will definitely go with him. Giving it to Muchen means giving it to Yanxing.
"Thank you, Grandpa." Mu Chen said respectfully.
Ling Chuan put his hands on his hips. In the end, he adopted Yan Xing's opinion and used rock-paper-scissors to decide the ownership of the ninth-level elixir that Muchen had refined last time.
Ling Chuan had bad luck and lost to Bai Chenxing, so the elixir went to Bai Chenxing.
Ling Chuan curled his lips and thought to himself, Bai Chenxing is such a rude guy. He doesn't know how to be humble to his elders. He just took the pills after winning and ate them without wasting a moment.
If he had taken the elixir, his weapon-refining skills would have been greatly improved.
Yan Xing was the same. For such a precious elixir, he actually suggested using rock-paper-scissors to decide the owner. I wonder if he is not good at rock-paper-scissors!
The most annoying one is Qu Kun. Bai Chenxing won, but Qu Kun actually smiled so happily.
Qu Kun actually couldn't stand Bai Chenxing, but when Bai Chenxing defeated him, Qu Kun smiled so brightly. It can be imagined how much he hated himself.
When reaching the Martial Saint level, it becomes difficult to advance. Thanks to the Tenglong Jingtian Pill, Bai Chenxing's cultivation is almost catching up with him. It's really disgusting to think about it.
Mu Chen looked at Ling Chuan and asked, "Grandpa, what's wrong with you?"
"What a fool you are. You always do whatever Yan Xing says. If he asks you to play rock-paper-scissors, you just play! Can't you have some opinion of your own?" Ling Chuan glared at Mu Chen unhappily.
Mu Chen looked at Ling Chuan innocently and said, "Grandpa, it was you who told me to be more obedient to Yan Xing and do my best to obey Yan Xing's orders!"
Ling Chuan: "..." Is he shooting himself in the foot?
Ling Chuan looked at Mu Chen and said, "So, next time you refine a pill and Yan Xing asks you to play rock-paper-scissors, will you still play?"
Mu Chen nodded and said as a matter of course: "Yes! There's nothing wrong with rock-paper-scissors! It's fair and just."
Ling Chuan: "..." So, he should study rock-paper-scissors?
