I don’t know whether it was Chen Mu’s words that the soul is gone and there will be no afterlife, or the severe pain, which finally made the servant unable to bear it, and screamed: "It's all Mr. Xing..."
boom!
Chen Xing kicked up a stone, and the stone shot towards the servant's head like a projectile.
Chen Mu did not stop him, and allowed the stone to penetrate the servant's head, killing him on the spot. At the same time, he turned to look at Chen Xing, shook his head and said, "What's the point of killing people and silencing them?"
Say it.
Chen Mu no longer looked at Chen Xing. He didn't even have any interest in taking action against such a small person. He just cupped his hands at Chen Guang and said: "Second uncle, I will go to Sitiantai first. As for the crime of killing relatives, just
Second uncle, you can enforce the family law."
Chen Guang did not look at Chen Xing. He nodded lightly at Chen Mu and said, "Yes, the boss's matters are more important. You go first and we will talk about other matters when we get back."
Chen Mu left the yard.
Only Chen Guang, whose expression gradually became indifferent, was left, and Chen Xing, whose face was pale and his forehead was covered with cold sweat. He wanted to say something, but couldn't figure out how to say it several times.
…
Xuanguo Mansion.
In a small courtyard.
Chen Yu was sitting on a recliner, eating the fragrant fruit fed by the maid next to him, and listening to the report of the servant kneeling in front of him.
"Collaborating with a cult?"
After listening to the report of his servant, Chen Yu chuckled and said: "Chen Xing is really ruthless, he will kill people if he takes action."
The beautiful maid next to her turned her eyes around and whispered: "I heard that the evidence is solid, so it may not be false. The house was so messed up the day before yesterday..."
"Who knows."
Chen Yu said casually: "It doesn't matter whether it's true or false. Since the evidence is conclusive, Chen Mu will not have to run away this time. In short, this matter is very serious, and you are not allowed to say anything outside."
The maidservant and the kneeling servant next to him nodded immediately.
Naturally, they also knew the seriousness of the matter.
"Sister Yao surprised me. She seems to be only sixteen years old, almost seventh grade. Her future achievements will definitely be higher than that of Chen Xing..."
Chen Yu chuckled again.
I don't have any thoughts about Chen Yao, because no matter how outstanding Chen Yao is, she is still a girl. Even if she doesn't get married in the future, it won't affect his status.
Only someone like Chen Xing, if he progresses further and gradually reaches a high and powerful position, will he be able to threaten him at home. After all, although he is the legitimate son, he still has two older brothers.
"You can continue to inquire."
"Don't inquire about Chen Mu's collusion with the cult. Focus on Chen Xing. I want to know what he did in this matter. If he is really framed...hey."
It doesn't matter whether Chen Mu dies or not, but if he can get through this incident and get a handle on Chen Xing, then he can manipulate Chen Xing at will in the future.
"yes."
The servant responded.
However.
Before he could go out, he saw another servant hurried into the yard.
"Third Master, something big happens!"
"I just heard that the head of Sitiantai ordered Master Mu to go to the Star Observation Tower to talk about it."
This sentence made Chen Yu startled.
The beautiful maid next to her also looked surprised.
Star Observation Tower?!
Chen Yu showed a trace of confusion at first. No matter how big the matter of colluding with a cult was, it would not alarm the boss. Moreover, the Star Observation Tower was an important place. Even the princes and princes were not allowed to step into it without the emperor's order or invitation.
Could it be...
Chen Yu finally thought of something and showed a look of astonishment and disbelief.
The whole person suddenly stood up.
"Can you say that again!"
"...The Master of Sitiantai ordered Young Master Mu to go to the Star Observation Tower to talk about it."
The servant responded with a trembling voice.
broken!
It's him!
Chen Yu's whole body froze in place.
What happened that night was not made public, except that the Xuanguo Mansion resisted the cult and destroyed the cult's conspiracy. However, he knew that a magician had intervened to turn the tide that night, and he said that the magician might be the Xuanguo Mansion.
someone in.
At that time, Chen Yu didn't really believe it, because anyone who became a magician would hide it, whether it was a master or a servant, it was just a matter of one step, and there was no need at all.
But now,
Chen Mu, commander of Sitiantai, went to the Star Observation Tower to talk about it.
When connected together, the meaning it points to is self-evident!
"..."
Chen Yu came back to his senses and sat back down with a gloomy look on his face.
Chen Xing kicked the iron plate. The outcome this time would probably not be good. A magician came out of the Xuanguo Mansion, and the entire mansion would prosper from it. But the problem was that no matter how prosperous the Xuanguo Mansion was, it would not be good for him.
It didn't have much influence, and he had no chance of inheriting the title.
There were two direct descendants pressing down on his head.
But now.
There was one more person who could stand on top of him, and he jumped up all of a sudden without any warning.
What makes Chen Yu even more difficult to accept is why the awakened person is not him?!
If something like awakening can fall on Chen Mu, it can also fall on him. Once he can awaken, no matter how low his rank is, his status will suddenly change, and he will no longer only be able to eat and drink.
The third son who is having fun will directly become the most powerful heir to the Xuanguo Mansion!
Chen Yu looked ugly.
The servants and maids next to him did not dare to speak.
I don't know how long it took, but finally another servant walked into the courtyard and reported in a low voice: "Third Master, I just enforced the family law. I heard that the beating was very serious. Master Xing has run out of energy."
"Die, die!"
Chen Yu waved his hands irritably and said: "Everyone, get out."
…
Outside Xuanguo Mansion.
Chen Mu stepped out of the side door and was immediately greeted by someone outside the house.
"Master Mu, I want you to ride in his sedan chair. It will be faster this way."
When traveling in Kyoto, the fastest thing is not a carriage, but a sedan, but the prerequisite is that the person carrying the sedan must be a warrior, and the grade cannot be very low.
On weekdays, those who carry the sedan chair for Duke Xuan Chen Guang are four seventh-grade warriors.
Although a seventh-level martial artist already has a certain status, carrying the sedan chair for Duke Xuan is not considered humiliating, because Duke Xuan's status is equivalent to that of a third-level martial arts master.
Being able to carry the grandmaster's sedan chair is even an honor for warriors below the sixth level.
"Master Mu, please get on the sedan."
Several bearers spoke respectfully to Chen Mu.
News spread quickly in the mansion, and they already knew Chen Mu’s identity, a fifth-level Taoist master!
Such status is naturally enough for them to carry the sedan chair.
"good."
Chen Mu looked calm and got on the sedan calmly.
With his current state of mind, there will naturally be no change due to the change in status. Otherwise, he would have disclosed his identity as a magician long ago and would not have remained to this day.
"Master, please sit down."
The four bearers smiled and spoke.
then.
Whoosh!
The four people moved in unison, lifting the sedan in an instant, and then leaped across a large area of streets and disappeared in the distance.
Chen Mu sat in the sedan, watching the scene outside flashing rapidly, and couldn't help but nodded slightly.
After all, they are four seventh-grade warriors who control their power very accurately. Every leap and movement has turning and deadening forces, which will not make the people in the sedan feel uncomfortable.
certainly.
Even without these, he can still bear it. After all, his body is no longer capable of binding a chicken, but has reached the seventh level of martial arts. He has golden skin and jade bones, and is difficult to be hurt by swords.
The scene outside changed rapidly. In just a few moments, they had already crossed an unknown number of blocks and arrived in front of a very magnificent building.
Swish.
The sedan stopped and landed smoothly.
The bearer opened the curtain.
Chen Mu stepped out of the sedan and looked forward. The first thing that caught his eye was a circling golden dragon, which was dozens of feet long, as if it was looking up at the nine-day roar!
This golden dragon is a huge stone carving, located on the front of the palace. A pair of dragon eyes are very mysterious, with a little pressure, as if they are alive!
Chen Guang usually stops here when he lifts his feet to go to court, so several bearers are familiar with this place. When one of them saw Chen Mu staring at Jinlong, he stepped forward and whispered:
"This dragon has been around since the founding of the Yuan Dynasty. There were three heavenly masters who put their eyes on it, so it is very different. Ordinary people would feel paralyzed and unable to move forward just by standing here."
"I see."
Chen Mu converged his gaze and nodded slightly.
He did sense three wills of different strengths and weaknesses from the golden dragon. From what the bearer said, it seemed that the strength and weakness were due to different ages, and the degree of weakening varied.
After all, the soul power of a second-grade magician cannot last forever and will slowly fade away over time.
"On the left is the Martial Arts Temple, in the middle is the Imperial City, and on the right is Si Tiantai. When you go over there, someone should be there to guide you. We can't go any further. We'll wait here for you to come back."
Another bearer spoke softly.
Chen Mu stepped forward, bypassed the golden dragon in front of the imperial city, and walked in the direction of Si Tiantai.
