North of Jingnan, to Deshi.

This is the economically developed northern region in Jingnan Province. Although the overall environment is not as good as that of the provincial capital Jingzhou City, its annual GDP contribution accounts for 30% of the entire province's GDP.

This is all thanks to the Jingnan Mu family that dominates here.

As one of the major families in southern Beijing, the Mu family has countless assets. It is said that the Mu family is related to the Jiangnan Sword Sect, and their business is getting smoother.

In the past few days, Zhide City has been extremely lively.

One of the reasons is that the head of the Mu family, Mu Xuyan, released the news that he wanted to find a quick son-in-law for his daughter Mu Hanran.

Mu Hanran's name is widely spread among the upper-class circles in southern Beijing. To outsiders, Mu Hanran is just a wealthy daughter with an arrogant personality and outstanding appearance. Even though the real head of the Mu family now is Mu Hanran's uncle Mu Xuyan.

, but it still cannot stop the enthusiasm of many people.

Among them, the most critical one is the heavyweight news released by the head of the Mu family, Mu Xuyan.

The dowry given to Mu Hanran by the Mu family this time is an ancient sword!

Legend has it that the sword was the real treasure of the Mu family, and even the entire Jiangnan Sword Sect was shocked by it. Many young talents came out to compete for the sword!

Today is already the seventh day for the Mu family to recruit a son-in-law.

In the past few days, masters from all sides were fighting fiercely in the Mu family. In addition to some top masters who were at the peak of their inner strength, there were also many real kings in their mid-twenties who came to help out!

Every day when a new competition ends, this whole day's arena competition becomes the talk of countless people.

To No. 1 Denan Road.

This is a famous manor in Zhide City, a row of high-end villas, each with a different shape and style, and the cost is astonishing.

This is the Mu family in Jingnan!

In the manor, there is even a small man-made forest garden!

In the study room of one of the villas, countless ancient books are displayed on rows of antique bookshelves.

At this moment, an old man with silver hair was sitting quietly at the table. In front of him, there was a piece of black and white chess. On the chessboard, it was criss-crossed, and it was already an inextricable killing pattern.

The old man was very old, but his eyes were particularly bright. Opposite him, the man holding a tall instrument held an imposing figure, but there was still a hint of worry between his eyebrows.

At this moment, the man lowered his head slightly and looked at the chessboard in front of him. He held the white piece in his hand and did not dare to make a move.

If anyone is here, they will be able to recognize that this man is Mu Xuyan, the now powerful head of the Mu family, and sitting opposite him is Mu Boyun, the grand master of the Mu family!

"Weiqi, the reason why it is called Go, is the emperor's art of killing and enclosing the territory. Now I have become the dragon. Preface, it's your turn. Should you kill my dragon with your sword, or should you encircle the territory to create momentum?"

." Mu Boyun spoke calmly, his tone was calm, not impatient or impatient.

In the eyes of outsiders, Mu Xuyan, a fierce and decisive figure, the head of the Mu family who could break his younger brother's legs without hesitation, looked at the chessboard with a wry smile on his face, then sighed and put the chess pieces in.

Inside the chess box, throw in the pieces and admit defeat.

"I lost."

Mu Boyun was not at all surprised by this. He nodded slightly: "How are things going recently?"

Hearing Mu Boyun's question, Mu Xuyan immediately turned serious and said, "As you wish, ever since I spread the news that our ancient sword was used as Hanran's dowry, it has attracted countless young talents.

Come, among them, the Jiangnan Sword Sect has sent out five young Vajras in a row, forming a powerful formation."

"Among them is the youngest Vajra Yujinglong in Jiangnan Sword Sect's history for a hundred years. At the age of twenty-three, he is already a third-grade Vajra. He has won seven battles for seven consecutive days."

Speaking of this, Mu Xuyan's eyes flashed with shock.

Yujinglong!

Mu Xuyan had heard of this name, but he never thought that Jiangnan Sword Sect would really release this person!

In the first seven days, only three swords were used in each battle. Three swords could determine the outcome. The second son's talent was unparalleled!

"The relationship between our Mu family and the Jiangnan Sword Sect has always been close and distant. Do you know why?" Mu Boyun nodded and then asked.

Mu Xuyan shook his head. In fact, he did not know.

In the eyes of outsiders, the relationship between the Mu family and the Jiangnan Sword Sect is subtle. It is different from the Lin family, which is directly covered by the Jiangnan Sword Sect, and the family that has Su Yuantian, an old man who once had the power of following the dragon.

The Mu family is a merchant family, and there are few real masters in the family. However, after all these years, no one dares to trouble him. The numerous businesses in the family are going smoothly, with few ups and downs.

Even Mu Xuyan was not very clear about this.

"The reason lies in that ancient sword." Mu Boyun said slowly: "The Mu family manor, going back several decades, was a cemetery, and there were corpses buried in the tomb.

He did not die for others."

"It's not a man-made death?" Mu Xuyan was slightly startled: "It's not a man-made death. Could it be that malaria is raging?"

"Back then, there was war and chaos, and many people died. However, the people who died here were not killed by humans or diseases, but by the sword in the forest."

Mu Boyun's tone was solemn, he turned his head slightly and looked out the window.

Mu Xuyan followed Mu Boyun's line of sight and looked over. Wherever he looked was the artificial forest garden in the manor.

In the forest garden, the vegetation is lush and lush, and the various trees in it are growing exceptionally strong.

"Outsiders all think that our Mu family is rich, guarding such a valuable place, and raising a forest garden for pleasure, but they don't know that the rich soil in the forest garden is because of the soil buried under the soil.

There are hundreds of corpses lying on the ground.”

"Those people all coveted that sword and were killed by the sword. They deserved it!"

Mu Boyun spoke calmly, with a sneer on his face.

When Mu Xuyan heard this, he hesitated: "Dad, I really don't know why you want me to do this. Since, as you said, this ancient sword is really weird, maybe it has otherworldly powers."

Power, then why do you want me to release such news?"

"What if the first prize is really won by someone from the Jiangnan Sword Sect, and Hanran will marry into the Jiangnan Sword Sect. Based on what I did to her father, I think she will already hate me deeply in her heart.

Well, if she gains strength in the future, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to our Mu family."

"Even if you want to attract and kill the guy who is trying to hit this sword, you don't have to go through all the trouble, right?"

Mu Xuyan's face was full of confusion.

This so-called recruitment of a son-in-law by the Mu family was actually a killing array carefully prepared for Lin Yi.
