Chapter 121 Inside Story
Ye Xun looked at the two of them with a cold expression, as if everything was their fault.
Wang Li stood aside dejectedly, her face looking a little gloomy.
"Father, you have three million, give me one million." Ye Rong couldn't help but say.
Ye Xun suddenly became furious and yelled, "I raised you to this age and sent you to Holy Star Academy, and now you still want to ask me for money."
Being scolded by Ye Xun, Ye Rong's face suddenly showed a bit of resentment. "Saint Star Academy is not a good place. The students there are more cunning than the others. Without Yuanshi, you will live like a slave there."
Ye Xun glared at Ye Rong with anger on his face and said, "How dare you say that? I sent you to Holy Star Academy hoping you would achieve something, hoping you could revitalize the family, but in the end, you ended up being a slave. Can you please be more promising?"
Ye Rong bit her lip in frustration. She didn't want to be in this mess! There were countless outstanding students at Holy Star Academy, and she wasn't outstanding at all. If she wasn't outstanding, she wouldn't get any resources, and would be left further and further behind by those who performed better.
"Rong'er, it's not easy either. We have three million anyway, so you can give her 500,000." Wang Li said from the side.
Ye Xun said angrily, "Shut up right there! You're the unlucky one who suggested making fake goods, and in the end, you ended up losing both the wife and the army."
He owed the casino nearly 1.5 million, and now he didn't know how much the interest had accumulated. How could he give so many gems to Ye Rong?
Besides, he has so many places to spend money, and three million yuan stones are not enough.
Wang Li is good-looking, but she is not as pretty as the charming women in the imperial capital.
Ye Xunben had been thinking about hiring a courtesan after getting the Yuanshi, but now that the Yuanshi had shrunk so much, it was even a question whether he could even meet her, let alone hire her.
…………
Mu Chen spent the whole morning solving Ye Xun's problem, and went to see Mu Yuanfeng on the way. Mu Yuanfeng made rapid progress and was already a three-star martial spirit.
"Father, you have really accumulated a lot of experience and have become a three-star martial spirit. I am proud of you." Mu Chen looked at Mu Yuanfeng and smiled.
"It's all thanks to you." Mu Yuanfeng smiled gently.
For cultivation, resources are the most important. Mu Yuanfeng has Yuanshi in his hands. In the past, he was reluctant to buy a third-level spiritual herb, but now he can buy a fourth-level spiritual herb at will. Mu Yuanfeng also spent a lot of money to buy a book of martial arts.
The imperial capital is such a place, as long as you have money, you can buy anything.
Mu Yuanfeng has been suppressed for too long, and his foundation is very solid. Now that he has encountered an opportunity, he has naturally made rapid progress.
Mu Ke wrote to him several times urging him to go back, but Mu Yuanfeng ignored him.
Compared to his father, Mu Yuanfeng values his son more. Over the years, if it weren't for the burden of his family, he should have been promoted to a martial spirit long ago.
Despite this, Mu Yuanfeng still has feelings for the Mu family and regularly sends a sum of Yuanshi to them every month.
Mu Yuanfeng looked at Mu Chen with a complicated expression.
"Father, why are you looking at me like that?" He asked with a smile, looking at Mu Yuanfeng's expression.
Mu Yuanfeng looked at Mu Chen, hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but say, "Chen'er, how did Ye Xun offend you that you went to such great lengths, not only sending someone to seduce him, but also making him owe debts to the gambling house."
"He deserves it." Mu Chen smiled calmly and said indifferently.
Mu Yuanfeng looked at Mu Chen in a daze. He didn't know when his son, who was always making trouble, had changed so much that he couldn't recognize him. Not only was he talented, but he was also cruel and ruthless.
"Chen'er, the Ye family and the Mu family are old friends. If Ye Xun hasn't done anything too excessive, you should forgive him." Mu Yuanfeng frowned. After all, Ye Xun almost became Mu Chen's father-in-law.
Mu Chen held his chin and looked at Mu Yuanfeng with deep eyes. "Father, everything is his own fault. You don't have to feel sorry for him. Without me, in this dazzling imperial capital, someone as ambitious as Ye Xun would have reached that point sooner or later. I just gave him a push."
Mu Chen did not tell Mu Yuanfeng much about Ye Shi's biological father. Sometimes, knowing too much might not be a good thing for Mu Yuanfeng.
Mu Yuanfeng looked at Mu Chen and sighed helplessly. This son was now fully grown, and he could no longer control him. "Just be sensible."
Mu Chen narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. If Ye Xun had not been so greedy and demanded too much again and again, why would he do this?
He is very busy and doesn't have so much time to waste on garbage.
"By the way, there is one more thing." Mu Yuanfeng said.
Mu Chen raised his eyes and asked, "What?"
"Someone is investigating the Hundred Calming Body Techniques. It seems to be a powerful force." Mu Yuanfeng said with a serious expression.
Mu Chen narrowed his eyes and said, "Really?"
Mu Yuanfeng nodded and said, "Yes! The other party seems to have spent a lot of effort to find the Hundred Refinements Body Art. In fact, although this art is not bad, but they shouldn't mobilize a large force!"
Mu Chen smiled and said, "Perhaps this spell will be of great use to the other party."
Is Lu Yao about to appear? The original owner, Mu Chen, died at the hands of this guy! Even Ye Shi, Ye Shi.
But this time, no one knows who will win.
…………
"Uncle Chen, why did you pull me out here?" Ye Shi was dragged forward by Chen Da's arm, full of confusion.
"That bastard Ye Xun is causing you trouble again?" Chen Da asked Ye Shi with a serious expression.
Ye Shi nodded and said, "Yes! He has something that belonged to my biological father and offered me 60 million to buy it. I agreed, but he wanted to give me a fake. Mu Chen got angry and bargained for 3 million."
This is not a good thing either, Ye Shi said it concisely.
"Ye Xun actually has something belonging to your biological father in his hand?" Chen Da said in surprise.
Ye Shi nodded and said, "Yes!"
"Mu Chen bargained for three million. Did Ye Xun agree?" Chen Da continued to ask.
"Yes! I heard that Ye Xun owed money to the gambling house and couldn't pay it back on time. He had no choice but to die. If not for this, he would have to deal with us again. He is so lucky." Ye Shi said with some relief. When Mu Chen said that they should break up, he was actually a little worried.
Chen Da sneered, looked at Ye Shi helplessly, and said, "Shi Tou, do you really think you are lucky?"
Ye Shi looked at Chen Da in confusion, and asked in surprise, "If it's not good luck, then what is it?"
"Mu Chen ordered the seduction of Ye Xun, and also ordered the people in the gambling house to set a trap for Ye Xun." Chen Da sighed lightly.
Ye Shi opened his eyes wide and looked at Chen Da in disbelief, "Ah! Uncle Chen, you must have made a mistake. Mu Chen is not that kind of person."
Chen Da shook his head and said worriedly, "You! You think everything is too simple."
Chen Da didn't know how to evaluate Muchen. Muchen was qualified, talented, and capable. He was simply impeccable.
However, the problem lies in this impeccable nature. Can the simple-minded young master protect such a person?
Back then, Ye Shi’s biological father seemed to be such an impeccable person!
Originally, Chen Da thought that being soft-hearted might be his weakness, but now he discovered that although Mu Chen seemed gentle and approachable on the surface, he could be ruthless enough if his weak spot was touched.
Ye Shi puffed out his cheeks, his eyes shifting, "No matter what kind of person Mu Chen is, he's still Mu Chen."
Chen Da looked at Ye Shi helplessly. With Ye Shi in this state, it was impossible for him to guard against Muchen. He only hoped that Muchen was sincere to Ye Shi, otherwise, his young master might follow in the footsteps of his mother and father. Thinking of Qu Xinyang, deep worry flashed in Chen Da's eyes.
…………
Mu Chen looked at Ye Shi and asked calmly, "Where did you and your Uncle Chen go?"
Ye Shi lowered his head feeling a little guilty and said, "I didn't go anywhere. I just went for a walk outside."
"Have you found anything you like?" Although Mu Chen could see that Ye Shi was worried, he did not ask any further questions.
Ye Shi shook his head and said, "No!"
Ye Shi took out his Yuanshi card, looked at Muchen, and said, "Because I only spent three million Yuanshi on my father's crappy book, I now have over sixty million Yuanshi on my card."
Mu Chen looked at Ye Shi and said, "You keep it. If you like something, just buy it. Don't be polite and don't feel bad about spending the Yuan Shi."
"But I can't spend that much." Ye Shi said with some distress.
Mu Chen said disapprovingly: "It's always useful."
Ye Shi nodded and said, "Okay."
Ye Shi took out a book from his space ring and said with some dissatisfaction: "Ye Xun didn't lie to me again, did he? This book looks like garbage."
Mu Chen said disapprovingly: "You know what this book is made of."
Ye Shi was stunned for a moment. He really couldn't tell what material the book was made of.
Mu Chen looked at the book in Ye Shi's hand and said, "Don't underestimate it. I always feel that this book is not simple."
"Three million yuan worth of stones. It looks like a bargain. If it is really a bargain, it will be a big loss." Ye Shi said sullenly, holding the book in his hand.
Mu Chen smiled faintly. Three million, even if Ye Shi offered 60 million, he would still agree. Only three million, it was really cheap. Fortunately, Ye Xun was a soft commodity. If this man was stronger, it would be difficult to deal with him.
"Uncle Chen." Mu Chen walked into the kitchen and called out softly when he saw Chen Da busying around.
"Mr. Mu, why are you here? Where is the young master?" Chen Da asked with a smile.
"Ye Shi is sparring with Mu Yuanfeng." Ye Shi is naturally no match for Mu Yuanfeng. Although it is called sparring, in fact it is Mu Yuanfeng who is instructing Ye Shi.
"Is that so?" Chen Da whispered.
Mu Chen looked at Chen Da, and a strange look flashed in his eyes. Mu Chen always had a feeling that he couldn't see through this Chen Da. He was obviously an ordinary person, but sometimes, he gave Mu Chen a very dangerous feeling.
"Mr. Mu..." Chen Da called out with his head down.
"Uncle Chen, is there anything wrong?" Mu Chen asked calmly.
"Young Master Mu, if possible, please stay away from him." Chen Da frowned, hesitated for a long time, and finally spoke.
Ye Shi is too stubborn and simple-minded, while Muchen is too complicated. If he doesn't stop before Ye Shi falls too deeply into the trap, Ye Shi might end up like his mother and father, dying alone in depression.
Mu Chen looked at Chen Da and asked, "Why?"
"I just think you are not suitable for the young master." Chen Da said.
Mu Chen smiled indifferently, took a step closer to Chen Da and said, "Whether it is suitable or not is not up to you to decide. Ye Shi has grown up and you can't control him anymore. There are some things that Shitou shouldn't know, so don't say too much." Mu Chen narrowed his eyes. Chen Da might be doing this for Ye Shi's own good, but he was meddling too much.
Chen Da looked at the bright smile on Muchen's face, and suddenly felt that it might have been a mistake to bring Ye Shi to find Muchen.
