"Let’s go." Accidentally reminded of her new nickna, Lady Mu felt a tinge of inexplicable sorrow. She did not reject Jiang Yuzhe’s suggestion and, along with Mu Nanhuayue and a few others, as well as other Mu Family’s Disciples, followed Jiang Yuzhe.
Mu Yuying and Mu Xitian, among others, were still confused to this mont. They couldn’t figure out how Huayue defeated Jiang Yuzhe so easily or how Mu Hanyan knew the Shadowless Sword Technique—specifically the Sword Technique Fragnt that Jiang Yuzhe desperately needed. It was precisely with this fragnt that she easily subdued Jiang Yuzhe and made him her follower.
The more they thought about it, the more muddled they beca, feeling that the playboy they had always regarded as useless, despised by everyone in the family, beca increasingly enigmatic.
Even though they still deeply scorned his bad reputation, they no longer rejected him as before. At the very least, what had just occurred instilled in them a sort of unwitting admiration and even so dependence.
No matter how terrible this profligate elder brother was in the outside world, at least for their fellow clan mbers, he was deed trustworthy and reliable.
Thinking like this, they instinctively followed Mu Hanyan without waiting for a summons.
Mu Ze had intended to scold aloud, but he was so ashad of his previous behavior that he could not bring himself to speak, trailing behind the group with an iron-blue face.
"Hmph, Mu Hanyan, don’t think because of your good luck in grasping Jiang Yuzhe’s Achilles’ heel that these brothers and sisters will follow your every command. If you fail the task the Mu Family assigned and can’t save Uncle Four, I’d like to see how you will explain yourself," muttered Mu Ze malevolently in his heart.
He initially also wondered why Mu Hanyan knew Jiang Yuzhe’s Shadowless Sword Technique, but after considering his identity, he thought he found the answer: Mu Rui’an, from the Beijing Mu Family, belonged to the genuine lineage of the Zong Family, sure to have so secret Cultivation Techniques or Martial Arts that haven’t been shared with outsiders. Perhaps the Beijing Mu Family also had the Shadowless Sword Technique, and it might even be more complete than the Jiang Family’s.
Even though Mu Rui’an didn’t think highly of this useless son, blood was still blood. If he had good things, he wouldn’t favor outsiders over his own son, right? He even secretly gave Mu Hanyan a family’s Vessel Cutting Marrow Cleansing Pill, so what’s teaching him a Sword Skill Fragnt?
Convincing himself he found the answer, Mu Ze’s discontent grew: Why should I, Mu Ze, who has worked so hard for so many years, be commanded by a waste, just because he is Mu Rui’an’s son? No, I will not accept this! Everyone hesitates a little before acting, but I deliberate extensively before I act. I have gained respect over the years. How can a re failure so easily steal the spotlight from ! I must find a way to turn the tables!
Before long, the group arrived at the City Lord’s Mansion. With Jiang Yuzhe leading, the guards naturally did not stop them.
"By the way, young master, do you really have the Sword Technique Fragnt?" At the entrance, Zirong, curious as a cat, quietly asked Mu Hanyan, with Huayue also pricking up her ears.
"No," Mu Hanyan admitted frankly, though not loudly.
"Then you..." Zirong looked at Mu Hanyan in surprise.
"When did I ever say I had it? He was the one talking. I never confird it," Mu Hanyan shrugged nonchalantly.
Zirong and Huayue thought it over, indeed, Mu Hanyan had never claid from the beginning to the end that he possessed the Sword Technique Fragnt—it was all Jiang Yuzhe talking on his own, without Mu Hanyan’s confirmation. However, given Mu Hanyan’s unfathomable deanor, his deep and distant gaze, it should have been seen as an acknowledgent by anyone, right?
