Yan Yuchu, although only a descendant of the Capital’s branch of the Yan Family, was said to be held in high esteem by his family. He was even appointed as City Lord of Cangshan City. His future potential was boundless, far beyond what he could provoke.
Upon receiving the Token again and looking at it, Cui Zhixing’s face turned pale. On the back of the Token was the character "Zong," clearly indicating that it was a Token from the Zong Family. In other words, Yan Yuchu had already received recognition from the Zong Family and was considered a mber of the Zong Family proper, no longer just a re Branch Family mber.
To be recognized by the Zong Family, a Branch Family mber must be exceptional, undoubtedly far superior to Mo Yanhong in talents. For the sake of Mo Yanhong, offending him might not matter now, but in twenty years, one might not even know how one died.
My God, what were all these untouchable guys doing in Cangshan City? Cui Zhixing couldn’t care less about siding with the strong at this point, he just felt a headache coming on.
Mo Yanhong, too, was slightly shocked. He had heard a bit about Yan Yuchu’s reputation in the Capital, but he didn’t expect to encounter him in Cangshan City.
Then, Mo Yanhong’s gaze lingered on Mu Hanyan’s face. Who on earth was this person, that even Yan Yuchu was willing to serve as his lackey, obeying his orders.
"Mu Family, Mu Hanyan," Mu Hanyan also responded imdiately. She had seen Yan Yuchu’s Zong Family Token and knew she couldn’t compare with his status and had no capital to bluff, so she didn’t even bother taking out her own Token.
"What, did you say you’re Mu Hanyan?" Unexpectedly, upon hearing the na Mu Hanyan, Cui Zhixing was first startled, then a gleeful expression appeared on his face. He then turned and whispered sothing to a person nearby, who quickly turned and left.
"Everyone, please wait a mont. Regarding this matter, who is right and who is wrong, I am unable to determine. But I believe soone is qualified to make that determination," Cui Zhixing said, with a head-shaking and swaying manner, clearly stalling for ti.
It was obvious to everyone that Cui Zhixing was looking for soone to take charge of the situation. He couldn’t afford to offend either group present, so he had to find soone else. But who could he be looking for?
It didn’t take long for Mu Hanyan to find out who Cui Zhixing had summoned.
The figures of Pang Dezong and Zhao Sinin appeared before everyone in no ti. Cui Zhixing hurriedly approached them with a fawning and respectful bow, adding fuel to the fire as he recounted the incident, and finally said through clenched teeth, "Headmaster, that’s how it is. This Mu Hanyan has no sense of propriety, a blatant playboy, and he has affronted Young Master Mo. But my status truly does not permit to punish this Mu playboy."
Pang Dezong was all smiles at being referred to as "Headmaster," but he scolded, "You must not talk nonsense; I am rely the acting headmaster and do not deserve the title of headmaster."
Everyone present could tell how insincere this scolding was. Seeing him smile to the point his old face blood like a chrysanthemum, could anyone not know how much he relished being called "Headmaster"?
Naturally, Mo Yanhong and his group were also aware of Pang Dezong’s identity and hurried forward to pay their respects.
Watching Pang Dezong’s delighted expression, as if he couldn’t believe Mu Hanyan had fallen into his hands so quickly, really made her teeth ache. The old man had been tricked by her and harbored a grudge in his heart. With the situation as it was, of course, he would seize the opportunity to show his power.
Cui Zhixing’s heart also burst with joy. Originally, with just Mo Yanhong and Yan Yuchu present, Cui Zhixing could still leverage the authority of Zhengying Academy to diate between them. After all, it was just about getting acquainted in front of the top families of Anyun Country.
