Chapter 3607: 4.1207 Blinding a Bunch of Dogs' Eyes

"Who was spreading rumors in the family just now? Saying that this old man was being chased and beaten by my good granddaughter??" Old Ancestor Chaoyang roared relentlessly as soon as he emerged.

Mu Rouyan and Mu Rouyun were so frightened they tumbled onto the ground.

They never imagined that Old Ancestor Chaoyang's wisp of soul could actually come out of Chaoyang Tower!

"Gr-greetings, greetings, Old Ancestor!" The two sisters quickly scrambled forward, respectfully kowtowing to Old Ancestor Chaoyang.

However, Old Ancestor Chaoyang paid no attention to their deference. He continued to huff and puff, glaring. "Shameless! How dare you fabricate lies and slander this old man's good name!"

Does he not care about his own reputation?

Would it be glorious to have it known that he was being chased and blasted with exploding fire talismans by his own good granddaughter?

"Old Ancestor! Old Ancestor, spare us, spare us!" Mu Rouyan and Mu Rouyun were now so terrified that their hair stood on end.

Neither of them had expected Old Ancestor Chaoyang to actually emerge from the tower just to settle accounts with them, two mere juniors.

"So, it really was the Mu Rouyan sisters talking nonsense just now," the surrounding Mu family disciples whispered amongst themselves.

"I knew it! The Old Ancestor is a distinguished senior; how could he possibly be chased and beaten by Miss Qiao Qiao?"

Everyone nodded in agreement, their eyes filled with disdain as they coldly watched the Mu Rouyan sisters.

The good days for these two sisters were truly over.

Now that they had offended Old Ancestor Chaoyang, let alone their concubine mother being unable to protect them, even if the family head intervened, he might not be able to completely smooth things over.

Mu Rouyun, being slightly smarter than her sister, realized the situation was dire. She immediately kowtowed, begging for mercy, her head thudding against the bluestone bricks.

"Old Ancestor, Old Ancestor, I was wrong. I, I shouldn't have listened to my sister and spoken carelessly before understanding the facts, thus defiling your good name." With these words, Mu Rouyun immediately shifted the entire blame onto her sister, Mu Rouyan.

Mu Rouyan stared back at her, dumbfounded, then quickly kowtowed, crying, "Old Ancestor, Old Ancestor, it's not my fault, I, I am..."

Old Ancestor Chaoyang was too lazy to listen to them bicker further. He simply waved his hand and declared, "As disciples of my Mu family, with such ill intentions, you will never achieve great things! Mu Cang, starting tomorrow, send these two disciples out of the main family. Let them go to a barren land to properly cultivate their character before anything else."

Mu Cang smiled bitterly and nodded, cupping his hands in acknowledgment. "Yes."

When the Old Ancestor spoke, he naturally had no choice but to comply.

Mu Rouyan and Mu Rouyun were utterly stunned.

Did the Old Ancestor's words mean he was expelling them from Imperial City and banishing them to some remote, desolate branch family where not even chickens laid eggs or birds bothered to poop?

Mu Rouyan and Mu Rouyun no longer cared about bickering with each other. They cried and wept, repeatedly kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Qiao Mu, who was currently climbing the tower within Chaoyang Tower, had no idea that with a single word, the Old Ancestor had dealt with two people she intensely disliked.

At this point, she didn't know how much time had passed, but Qiao Mu felt that the scenery around her had changed many times.

Outside the tower, the people's expressions had already shifted from shock and petrification to numb indifference.

Before today, if someone had told them that a person could climb all ninety floors of Chaoyang Tower in one go, they would have flat-out refused to believe it.

Today, however, reality had given them a resounding slap in the face.

It had utterly blinded everyone's "dog eyes"!
