Yun Feng and Qu Lanyi walked out, followed by Little Fire and Lan Yi. When they passed by Mu Yingyong, Little Fire suddenly approached him mischievously. Mu Yingyong staggered and fell off the chair.
“Useless!” Little Fire gave an arrogant comment and glanced at Mu Yingyong mockingly. Then, it scratched its head and left. Mu Yingyong lay on the ground in a sorry state. His body was shaking hard and he still hadn’t recovered.
“Yingyong! If it weren’t for your brother, Yinghua, I’m afraid the entire Mu family would’ve been destroyed because of what you said!” Lady Zi shouted furiously. Mu Yingyong barely got up from the ground and sat there without saying anything.
“Yinghua, you must seize the opportunity! If Yun Feng can enter the Mu family, everything will be ours!” A scorching light burst out of Lady Zi’s eyes as she looked at Mu Yinghua hopefully. Mu Yinghua chuckled. “Mother, leave it to me.”
The Mu family had prepared a very comfortable guest room for Yun Feng. Thanks to Madam Zi, nobody dared to disturb her. After dinner, Yun Feng returned to her room. Qu Lanyi also went back. Their rooms were next to each other.
Yun Feng waved her hand and sealed the space. She took out the dragon-shaped jade pendant with a thought in her mind. Yao Guang, who had been hiding, looked exhausted. It seemed that the energy in his body had been exhausted ever since he came out of the Dragon Palace. A beam of dark light flashed and Yao Guang’s body quickly entered the dragon-shaped jade pendant. Yun Feng was a bit startled when she saw that.
“I’m going back. I’ve already reached my limit. I need to go back and rest.” Yao Guang’s voice came, but there was no response. Yun Feng smiled. She was quite curious about Senior Yao Guang’s original form. Since he said that she would see him sooner or later, she wasn’t in a hurry.
When she held the dragon-shaped jade pendant, Yun Sheng and Mu Xiaojin, who were cultivating on the tenth floor of the Dragon Palace, heard Yun Feng’s voice. “Brother, Xiaojin!”
Both of them were delighted and they stood up. “Xiao Feng, are you alright?” asked Mu Xiaojin worriedly. Yun Feng smiled. “I’m fine. We’re already somewhere else. Come out first.”
Both of them nodded. A beam of light flashed past them and they came out of the Dragon Palace. When they came out, Mu Xiaojin’s face was slightly pale. She subconsciously looked around and moved her lips.
“What’s wrong?” Yun Sheng noticed that something was wrong with Mu Xiaojin and asked. Mu Xiaojin shook her head and looked at Yun Feng with her big eyes. Yun Feng walked over. “Xiaojin, I think you know where we are.”
Mu Xiaojin nodded and said, “The Mu family.”
Yun Sheng was stunned. Yun Feng patted Mu Xiaojin’s shoulder gently. “You’ll come back to the Mu family sooner or later. After all, the blood of the Mu family runs in your body. Mu Canghai is the same. Running away won’t solve any problem.”
Mu Xiaojin’s body swayed gently. Yun Sheng, on the other hand, didn’t say anything. He knew that Mu Xiaojin had been hiding something in her mind. As long as she was willing to talk, they were willing to listen to her.
Mu Xiaojin bit her lips gently. Yun Feng smiled and held Mu Xiaojin’s hand. “Xiaojin, we’ve got you.”
Mu Xiaojin’s eyes were slightly red. She subconsciously pressed her hand against her chest. That was where Mu Canghai’s ashes were kept. Mu Xiaojin had always been keeping them close to her chest. She would bring her brother wherever she went.
A memory that had been sealed for a long time, a memory that couldn’t bear to look back, finally began in Mu Xiaojin’s slightly trembling voice.
The Mu family was the largest in Mu City. The entire town was under the management of the Mu family. The head of the Mu family, Mu Zhenhua, was a successful, rich man who had both power and money. Besides, he was also very handsome. Many women wanted to enter the Mu family and get Mu Zhenhua’s liking.
Mu Zhenhua was also a normal man. He certainly wouldn’t reject beautiful women. The Mu family also gradually expanded. Mu Zhenhua alone had a few women and his main wife also acquiesced to this and had to accept it.
Mu Canghai and Mu Xiaojin were both born by the main wife of the Mu family. According to the rules, the two of them had the right to inherit Mu Zhenhua’s family property. However, the main wife had a weak personality and didn’t have the ability to manage anything. The two children had never had a good life ever since they were born.
The provocations and insults of the other women and children, as well as the fights that happened from time to time, caused the two children to be riddled with wounds. Mu Canghai took the role of a protector since he was young, protecting their mother and Mu Xiaojin who inherited their mother’s weak personality.
Mu Zhenhua was too busy with his business to pay attention to what was going on in the mansion. His wife was supposed to be in charge of the power in the mansion, but a woman took it away by force. That woman was Mu Yinghua’s mother, Madam Zi.
Mu Zhenhua’s disregard for Mu Canghai and Mu Xiaojin made these people even worse. When Mu Zhenhua wasn’t around, Madam Zi thought of all kinds of ways to torture the two children, and the scene Shang Rui saw happened at that time.
Life was tough. After taking over all the power, Madam Zi embezzled money and implemented cruel policies on Mu Zhenhua’s wife and children. Even the three meals a day were reduced to one meal. The gentle good wife finally couldn’t stand it anymore and wanted to argue with that woman for her child, only to be beaten to death by Madam Zi.
At that time, Mu Xiaojin was frightened and Mu Canghai was also completely shocked. Their mother was fine when she went out, but when she came back, she had become a cold corpse with a bloody rice bag in her hand.
When Mu Zhenhua learned that his first wife was dead, he didn’t ask for the reason at all and simply buried her. The two children were directly handed to Madam Zi to watch over. At that time, Mu Canghai and Mu Xiaojin were already in their teens. How would they not know Madam Zi’s evil eyes? In a few years, when Mu Zhenhua died, everything in the Mu family would be extremely sensitive.
The brother and sister escaped. The day before Mu Xiaojin could take the exam of Masang School of Magic, they escaped without caring about anything. Nobody in the Mu family knew that Mu Xiaojin was a mage, and Mu Canghai hid his strength very well. In order to survive in the cruel Mu family, the brother and sister hid everything.. Even if they were beaten up all over, they wouldn’t reveal anything.
