Chapter 3606: 4.1206 Reprimand
These two kicks resulted in Mu Rouyan and Mu Rouyun being directly sent flying out of Chaoyang Tower by the Old Ancestor.
The Old Ancestor never expected these two ill-intentioned girls to dare to spread rumors and stir up trouble outside!
It was simply outrageous!
And so, when he became angry, Mu Cang and Mu Jingrui, father and son, genuinely felt immense pressure.
"Speak!"
Seeing Old Ancestor Chaoyang about to erupt in anger, Mu Jingrui dared not conceal anything. He immediately recounted, word for word, everything that Mu Rouyan and her sister had said.
"Rouyan said that you, Old Ancestor, were constantly shouting about 'defying your master and destroying your ancestors,' and she, she was worried about your safety, that's why, that's why she made us rush over so urgently to check."
After speaking, Mu Jingrui also felt that this whole affair was a bit unreliable.
Given the Old Ancestor's intimate attitude towards Qiao Mu, it seemed he treated Qiao Mu far better than any other junior in the family.
There's no way Qiao Mu would actually go after the Old Ancestor, right?
Besides, with the Old Ancestor's current cultivation, even three or five more 'little Qiao Mus' wouldn't be able to budge a single wisp of the Old Ancestor's soul念.
They had been misled by Mu Rouyan and Mu Rouyun and had foolishly walked in to get a beating.
Mu Jingrui took a deep breath, collected himself, and quickly said, "Old Ancestor, please calm your anger."
Mu Cang also recovered by then. He had been worried outside that, with his granddaughter's temper, she might actually do something like defy her master and destroy her ancestors...
Now, thinking it over carefully, although his granddaughter was very reserved, her character was excellent. He should have trusted her.
Mu Cang quickly cupped his hands and exclaimed, "Old Ancestor, this disciple was foolish. Please forgive me, Old Ancestor. This disciple will leave now!"
"Of course you're foolish!!" Old Ancestor Chaoyang retorted angrily.
"The Mu family, passed down to your hands, is truly declining with each generation!"
Old Ancestor Chaoyang snorted. "If the Mu family is left for you to manage any longer, it will fall into ruin!"
"The most outstanding disciple of the Mu family has now changed her name? How did you handle this matter?"
"Has this old man been away from the continent for decades, and you've lost your ability to think? The Long family was originally our ally; you bear an undeniable responsibility for how the relationship has become like this!"
Mu Cang's face immediately flushed with shame. He lowered his head and cupped his hands. "Yes, Old Ancestor's lesson is well-taken."
Old Ancestor Chaoyang snorted. "If you hadn't chosen the wrong family head, how else would the family, generation after generation, have ended up in such a mess?"
"This old man gets particularly angry seeing your chaotic state." Old Ancestor Chaoyang opened his mouth and thoroughly berated Mu Cang.
Old Master Mu had no choice; who could argue with the most revered Old Ancestor in the Mu family's history?
Let him scold; once the old man vented his anger, it would probably be fine...
"Go!" Old Ancestor Chaoyang snorted, waving his hand. "This old man will accompany you out."
Mu Cang immediately exchanged a bitter smile with Mu Jingrui and nodded repeatedly.
Now, with the Old Ancestor accompanying them out, there would be no need for the elders outside to laboriously open the crack in Chaoyang Tower's door again.
As the two followed Old Ancestor Chaoyang out, the Old Ancestor's wrinkled face enlarged, appearing like a sky-obscuring presence above everyone's heads.
