Yue Fanling looked at Mu Hanyan's confident look, smiled softly, stretched out his hand and gently smoothed Mu Hanyan's hair on the temples: "I believe that my Hanyan will definitely do it , there will definitely be such a day, a day that will surprise people all over the world."
The mother and daughter chatted for a long time, until Mu Rui'an came to urge them to eat, and then the chat was terminated.
…
In the Zhao family, in the ancient and old ancestral hall, the haggard and old face of the Zhao family head was full of sadness.
"It has been so many days, and Lingxian still hasn't come back. It seems that something unexpected has happened to him." Patriarch Zhao said in a hoarse voice, shedding a few old tears.
"Master Patriarch, it's all my fault that I failed to protect Lingxian well." Zhao Sining also choked up and said.
Guessing that Miss Zhao Si left Alien Beast Valley early and returned to Zhao's house, Zhao Sining returned to Black Rock City with the last hope, only to realize that she never came back. At first, he comforted himself by guessing that she was delayed on the way, but after waiting for so many days, Miss Zhao Si was still not seen, Zhao Sining's hopes were completely shattered.
He can be sure that Miss Zhao Si must have died in Mu Hanyan's hands.
"It's not your fault, it's her life." Patriarch Zhao shook his head and said.
"Master Patriarch, don't worry, one day, I will avenge Lingxian's blood hatred, Mu Hanyan, I will let him die without a place to bury him." Hearing Patriarch Zhao's words, Zhao Sining felt even more guilty.
Yan Yuchu was invited by him, if not for Yan Yuchu, maybe Zhao Lingxian would not have suffered such bad luck.
In the past few days, he used Pang Dezong's hand metaphor to check around again, only to find out that apart from Miss Zhao Si, Yue Zhenglin and others were also missing at the same time. If I guessed right, it should be Yue Zhenglin and the others who despised Mu Hanyan, so they teamed up with Miss Zhao Si to deal with Mu Hanyan.
In fact, he was only half right. Yue Zhenglin did choose to join forces with Miss Zhao Si, but it was not because he disdained Mu Hanyan's personality, but because he couldn't resist Miss Zhao Si's seductive style. Of course, Zhao Sining would definitely not think so.
In short, with the strength of Yue Zhenglin and the others, plus Miss Zhao Si's resourcefulness (well, she is despicable and vicious), even if she couldn't kill Mu Hanyan, she shouldn't lose her life, but he invited Yan Yuchu.
It wasn't until he opened the barrier of the Valley of Alien Beasts and saw Yan Yuchu obeying Mu Hanyan's words with his own eyes, that he knew that the two of them were already working together.
He also has some understanding of Yan Yuchu's temperament, moody and ruthless, since he has joined forces with Mu Hanyan, it will be extremely difficult for Fourth Miss Zhao, Yue Zhenglin and others to survive.
In the final analysis, he was the one who harmed Miss Zhao Si, so one can imagine the self-blame and guilt in Zhao Sining's heart.
"Hehe." Hearing what Zhao Sining said through gritted teeth, Patriarch Zhao just smiled lightly.
If Zhao Sining really had the strength to deal with Mu Hanyan, how could his precious granddaughter end up like this? Up to now, he can be regarded as seeing through Zhao Sining, except for Pang Dezong's favor, he is useless, expecting him to avenge Miss Zhao Si is worse than expecting a sow to climb a tree.
Seeing Patriarch Zhao's smile, Zhao Sining blushed. He also knew that his strength was not high, and his brain was not as good as that of Miss Zhao Si. It was wishful thinking to avenge her.
"Give me an order to invite the heads of the Zhou family, the Yuan family, the Cao family, and the Xu family to come over and say that they have something important to discuss." The head of the Zhao family said to the old housekeeper who was waiting on the side.
"Master Patriarch, who is this?" Zhao Sining asked suspiciously.
"I originally wanted to hand over the future of the Zhao family to Lingxian, but I didn't expect that she would leave me so early. Below me, the three generations of the Zhao family are all mediocre, and no one can compare Lingxian, if the family is handed over to them, not to mention revitalizing the family, whether they can keep the family business will be a problem.
Before I die, I can only give it a go. " Patriarch Zhao sighed leisurely.
"Then I'll contact the Yue family right now. Yue Zhenglin, known as the genius of the Yue family once in a millennium, died at the hands of Mu Hanyan like this. They will definitely not let it go." Zhao Sining said with bright eyes.
He asked himself that he didn't have the confidence to seek revenge on Mu Hanyan, but if Patriarch Zhao and the other families were willing to do something, he could help.
"Alright." Patriarch Zhao nodded and said.
After Zhao Sining left, Patriarch Zhao took out a key that had already grown rust, went to the many spiritual seats in the ancestral hall, brushed off a few cobwebs, and gently wiped the dust on the blue and black stone bricks, revealing a well-concealed key. keyhole.
Put the key into the keyhole, twist it a few times, there was a clicking sound from the wall, a hidden compartment opened, and an ancient token appeared in front of you.
The front is born, the back is dead, and on the top, there is a holy character carved in ancient seal script, which looks grand and solemn.
"The ancestors are above all, and the unworthy descendants Zhao Yuanji have no way to teach. Among the three generations, no one can inherit the legacy of the ancestors except Lingxian. Now that Lingxian is dead, the descendants of future generations have no hope of revitalizing the family. I, Zhao Yuan The only way to preserve this family fortune is to fight with your life, and I hope all the ancestors will protect you." Patriarch Zhao murmured, and took out the token, with an absolutely tragic expression on his face.
The survival of the Zhao family is determined by this action, and his life and death are also determined by this action.
…
In the garden, the sun was shining brightly. Mu Hanyan taught Mu Ze and others how to use swordsmanship, and then they practiced it by themselves, while he sat at the small stone table, basking in the sun leisurely, while chatting with Huayue and the others . By the way, sometimes I touch the sweet Liuguang sleeping on my shoulder, the flesh is plump, it feels really good.
In the past ten days, she has been with her mother most of the time, enjoying the rare warmth between mother and daughter, and instructing Mu Ze and others to practice at other times.
As far as she knew, several major families including the Zhao family and the Yuan family would attack the Mu family in a few years, but since her rebirth, the trajectory of many things has changed, and it is likely to be earlier. Unable to determine the time, she couldn't wait in Black Rock City forever. If a crisis comes, it is still up to the members of the Mu family to tide over the difficulties themselves.
Therefore, Mu Hanyan seized the time to urge Mu Ze and others to practice, not because they hoped that they would be able to turn the tide, but just hoped that they would have more power to protect themselves so that they would not suffer heavy casualties like in previous lives.
However, the result of the incident surprised Mu Hanyan. Relying on the elixir and exercises obtained from the Great Elder, in just a dozen days, Mu Ze and others have greatly increased their strength, and the cultivation Mu Ze and Mu Yuying, who had the most solid foundations, were directly promoted to the first level, so easily that even Mu Hanyan himself found it a little inconceivable.
It stands to reason that although the great elder's pills are valuable, they shouldn't have such a great effect. The key lies in those exercises.
