Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return Chapter 267 entrusted with a heavy responsibility?

"They used to feel aggrieved by Fourth Miss Zhao and her group," Mu Nan explained. "You avenged them, so naturally, they are grateful to you. Previously, they were utterly helpless, which is unpleasant to ntion. But today, after deceiving Fourth Miss Zhao’s group out of so much money and making them shoot themselves in the foot, they certainly felt secretly thrilled."

At this, Mu Hanyan finally realized. Although the Zhao Family and the Zhou Family saw the Mu Family as enemies, they dared not provoke them openly. After all, the Mu Family in Heishi City was a branch of the Mu Family in the capital, which had much more influence. Although they did not dare to confront them openly, they did not stop their younger generations from making trouble for the younger mbers of the Mu Family, believing these were just insignificant little kids’ issues that the Mu Family would surely not escalate to full-blown conflicts.

Thus, the target of Fourth Miss Zhao and her group was not only Mu Hanyan. Whenever they had the chance, they would not spare any of the Mu Family’s younger generation. These young n and won, even younger than Mu Hanyan and less cunning, had suffered losses at her hands to so extent.

Today, Mu Hanyan had given Fourth Miss Zhao and Zhou Qi a covert setback, making them taphorically streak, and Yuan Tianbo along with others had been beaten to a pulp. Naturally, the younger generation was overjoyed.

At this point, Mu Hanyan finally felt a bit better. At least not everybody misunderstood her as a man who enjoyed tearing n’s clothing.

Soon they arrived at the council hall, where Mu Rui’an along with the Second Elder and the stern-faced Third Elder were t. All the young clansn stopped their chatter and respectfully greeted them.

"Today, I have summoned everyone here because there is a very important matter to announce," Mu Rui’an said in a deep voice, once almost everyone had arrived.

Below, there was complete silence; everyone stared intently at Mu Rui’an.

"Third Elder’s room’s Mu Ziqing, Fourth Uncle Mu, had gone out to purchase dicinal Herbs the day before yesterday but has yet to return. After much investigation, it is very likely that he’s trapped in Xiushui City. Unfortunately, the elders at ho all have important matters and cannot leave, so we need to select a few of you to go and find out the truth and, if possible, help Ziqing return," Mu Rui’an continued.

Mu Hanyan looked puzzledly at her father, realizing that the Third Elder had already relayed Qu Shanling’s words to her father and the other elders—it was ti to mount a rescue.

But it seed odd that such a responsibility would fall to these younger mbers. Although Mu Ziqing was young, he was still at least seven or eight years older than them with higher cultivation, and, being of an older generation, surely the uncles from each family were more suited for a rescue mission.

However, the other younger mbers did not think too much about it, excited at the trust Lord City Master was placing in them.

"Family Head, please let go."

"I’ll go too, I’ll go," said a chorus of young mbers, all eager.

"Stop arguing; the Family Head, the Second Elder, and I will decide who goes—this isn’t a pleasure trip. It’s not up to you to make a fuss," the Third Elder scolded sternly.

Everyone imdiately quieted down. The clan’s enterprises were all under the managent of the Third Elder, aning he also controlled their allowances; his word carried great weight and authority, so no one dared to offend him.

"The personnel have already been decided, now we just need to choose soone to lead the team. This task involves Ziqing’s safety and we cannot act rashly and spoil everything," the Second Elder also said sternly.

Seeing the stern look from the Second Elder, no one dared to speak up, and the initial excitent was thoroughly dampened.

At first, they hadn’t realized the seriousness of the matter and thought it might be an opportunity to travel and see the world. But seeing how cautious both the Family Head and the two elders were, they understood it wasn’t going to be an easy assignnt.
