"Master, it's bad, Young Master Wushuang is missing!"
"What's going on? Where has he gone?"
"Master, Master Wushuang didn't go back to Bermuda City with us that day. He stayed in Fire City with his two servants. One of them got separated and came back and said he couldn't find Master Wushuang."
"Hmph, how could such a big living person disappear for no reason? Let him go. Since he is in a bad mood, just come back when he feels better!"
Mu Zongtian has been in an extremely bad mood these days. Not only is Mu Wushuang making him dissatisfied, but Mu Qingyan is also asking him to go out (the purpose is obvious, most likely to go out to have a tryst with Thunder Blade), and more importantly, the prince's Chi
There was no movement for a long time, which made him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.
A small person like him cannot offend anyone in the palace, so he can only remain neutral. But logically speaking, Bermuda City is the second largest city in Nanzhou, and the prince should come to win over him.
, and now that the prince has made no movement, it can only mean that the prince has classified them into the enemy camp!
When he returned to Bermuda City, Mu Wushuang was in a broken mood. Mu Zongtian specifically allowed him not to go back to Bermuda City with the large army, and he could relax and recover by himself. But unexpectedly, Mu Wushuang was missing now.
Regarding Mu Wushuang's strength, Mu Zongtian naturally believed that he would be safe and sound, so he just complained angrily and didn't take it to heart.
But two days later, he received a shocking news from Liehuo City: "Mu Wushuang killed someone in Liehuo City and was detained by the other party!"
For a wealthy family like theirs, this is nothing. It's just killing someone and paying compensation. It's a trivial matter.
But the person Mu Wushuang killed was not an ordinary person, but the prince himself!
Otherwise, with Mu Wushuang's combat skills, even if he couldn't defeat the opponent, there would be no problem in escaping. But in front of Prince Mo Shuo, even in front of Yang Qi, Mu Wushuang could only capture him without any chance, and had no chance to escape.
.
After receiving the news, Mu Zongtian staggered and almost lost his balance.
"You, what are you talking about? How could Wushuang not recognize the prince? How could he, how dare he..."
"Master of the family, the subordinates can see clearly at this time that Young Master Wushuang has been detained by the prince and imprisoned in the Cornucopia Back Mountain Villa. I heard from the people inside that Young Master Wushuang was almost beaten to death by Yang Qi. If it weren't for his big
He yelled that he was the son of the Mu family in Bermuda City, and he was already dead..."
Hearing this, Mu Zongtian's face became even more ugly. Since the prince and Yang Qi had arrived in Fierce City, it was impossible not to see the Cultivation Powerful Ranking Martial Arts Association, and it was also impossible not to recognize Mu Wushuang.
Since they chose to ignore it and beat Mu Wushuang violently, it meant that the prince had no intention of giving any face to the Mu family! What should they do now? Mu Zongtian was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
After discussing with the family elders all night, Mu Zongtian immediately decided to lead people to the Fiery City overnight.
However, what awaited Mu Zongtian at the Cornucopia Back Mountain Villa was met with a closed door.
The prince did not see Mu Zongtian at all.
Mu Wushuang is the most likely future successor of the Mu family, and Mu Zongtian only has one daughter. Therefore, he has long regarded Mu Wushuang, whose parents died young, as his own son.
Now that Mu Wushuang is detained by the prince, Mu Zongtian will naturally do his best to rescue him.
He lived directly in the Mu family's residence in Liehuo City and tried to find a way to move out all the city lords of Liehuo City. However, the prince did not give them a chance to enter the villa because he was ill and would not see guests for the time being.
"The prince is really sick? How is it possible? Then he neither killed Wushuang nor asked us to come and plead for mercy. What does he want to do?" an elder asked in confusion.
Mu Wushuang shook his head: "The prince is very talented, how can we guess his thoughts? Alas."
"Master, someone has entered the villa behind the cornucopia, and he is not the prince's person." A spy came to report in a low voice.
"Who is it?"
"Thunder Blade."
"Um?"
Everyone was shocked, "Thunder Blade? Could it be..."
Mu Zongtian was stunned for a moment and became suspicious: "Could it be said that Lei Ren was someone placed by the prince in Nanzhou? It's impossible. What's the use of placing someone to go to the Six Islands and go to the Divine Sword Sect?"
He asked the spy: "Did Lei Ren go in through the front door in a big way, or did he go through the back door to receive the prince secretly?"
"You're going through the main entrance. Yang Qi will greet you personally at the door."
"Yang Qi personally greeted him? Did you read that correctly?"
"My subordinates saw it with their own eyes."
"Hiss, this..."
In the room, several elders and Mu Zongtian looked at each other, but they all couldn't figure out the identity of Lei Ren and the purpose of the prince.
If Lei Ren was the prince's spy, it stands to reason that the prince should have received him secretly. How could he be so fair and aboveboard? It is impossible that he didn't know that there was a big shot in the palace watching his every move.
"Keep watching and try to find out what Lei Ren did when he went in." Mu Zong ordered Tiantian.
After the spies left, an elder said: "Master, in my opinion, even if this Thunder Blade is not from the prince, he is still closely related to the prince. Otherwise, in recent times, the prince has not seen anyone, only the prince.
Seeing the Thunder Blade alone, this is too strange."
Mu Zongtian nodded: "I don't know what the background of this kid Lei Ren is. No matter, since the prince has no intention of killing Wushuang in the short term, let's take a look first."
What Mu Zongtian didn't expect was that in the next few days, the prince continued to receive Lei Ren.
Mu Zongtian also knew what Lei Ren did after entering, eating, drinking, and playing chess.
"This is impossible, they must have said something." Mu Zongtian concluded immediately.
An elder said: "The prince and Lei Ren are in the garden. No one dares to pry into what they say, and no one has the strength to hear them. Therefore, if you want to know what they said, besides asking the prince, you can only ask Lei Ren.
Blade. By the way, Patriarch, does Qing Yan have something to do with Lei Ren? Otherwise, let Qing Yan go to Lei Ren to find out some information?"
Upon hearing this, Mu Zongtian's face turned red and he didn't know what to say.
Mu Qingyan has been clamoring to go out these days. Now if she is asked to go to Lei Ren to inquire about information, isn't that a sheep entering a tiger's mouth?
Although Mu Zongtian is very clear about his daughter's thoughts, and Lei Ren has also shown his strength. He is the first person on the list of powerful cultivators and is already infinitely glorious. But after all, when Lei Ren asked to see him, he let Lei Ren eat him.
After being shut down, he later turned a cold shoulder towards Lei Ren. Now it is absolutely impossible for Mu Zongtian to change his attitude because he wants to save face.
Even if he makes a mistake, Mu Zongtian will insist on making a mistake.
"Yes, yes, Patriarch, since the prince seems to value Lei Ren so much, we might be able to start with Lei Ren and ask Lei Ren to help him plead for mercy and rescue Wushuang." An elder immediately agreed.
