Chapter 5206: 5.0958 Who Provoked Whom?

If it weren't for the slight resemblance in his eyes, Deputy Hall Master Ci Wei would hardly recognize this person. Previously, Mu Jingfeng was quite a presentable man, but now, he was truly, tsk, unwatchable.

Mu Jingfeng was considered one of their Hidden Moon Hall members. However, ever since the failed siege of the Mu family, which resulted in Mu Jingfeng losing both his legs to the Crown Prince's fire, Ci Wei no longer had any intention of using this cripple. What good was a man whose legs were useless and could never stand again?

Speaking of which, she had left him in some obscure corner of the Hidden Moon Hall, neglecting him for so long that if she hadn't seen him today, she wouldn't even remember where he might have died. Unexpectedly, this Mu Jingfeng had a few tricks up his sleeve. From the looks of it, he had pledged allegiance to the Master at some unknown point?

Ci Wei felt a touch of dissatisfaction. This Mu Jingfeng had defected to the Master without even telling her. All the mutated elixirs she had wasted on him before were for naught.

Mu Jingfeng, like an insect, frantically clawed at the ground, rolling and crawling, trying to reach the feet of Family Head Qin.

However… at a glance from the Second Young Master Qin, Huang Yong stepped forward two paces and stomped on Mu Jingfeng's back, stopping him from moving further.

"Second Son, what are you doing!!" Qin Hong glared at the Second Young Master Qin with a hint of displeasure, his eyes filled with dissatisfaction. This son was truly becoming more and more outrageous. It's said that even when beating a dog, you have to consider its owner's face, isn't it? Treating his subordinate like this right in front of him made Family Head Qin feel utterly humiliated.

Qin Cao, seeing this, couldn't help but excitedly shout, "Second Young Master! Don't go too far. Mu Jingfeng, no matter what, is still the Master's subordinate. Aren't you afraid of disheartening the other subordinates by doing this?"

The Second Young Master Qin, across the space, delivered another slap to Qin Cao, directly sending him stumbling back several steps, heavily colliding with a dust-covered Buddha statue.

"Cough, cough, cough." Qin Cao clutched his chest, coughing heavily several times. He felt as if the Second Young Master Qin's strike was as heavy as a thousand pounds, like a giant mountain pressing down, almost splitting his chest open.

"Tsk, wouldn't it be better to just stay put? You just have to run your mouth," the First Young Master said, shaking his fan, adding a sarcastic remark.

Qin Cao secretly gritted his teeth, clutching his nearly shattered sternum, coughing heavily several times, and retreating backward repeatedly.

Family Head Qin's eyes couldn't help but narrow, filled with anger, glaring at his son. "What do you intend to do!"

"Father, I told you, didn't I, not to provoke her."

Family Head Qin was furious. "How did I provoke her? Which eye of yours saw me provoke her!"

"On the contrary, their imperial court constantly suppresses us Tianyun people, and they even found ways to seal up everything in our Qin residence, moving all our possessions into the national treasury!"

Fortunately, he had made arrangements early. Before the Crown Prince and the little Crown Princess returned to Longyan City from Wangchuan, he had already ordered people to move some valuable items from the residence back to the headquarters. Even so, all the large items, as well as property deeds, were confiscated, resulting in heavy losses. Not to mention that His Highness the Crown Prince was like a mad dog, constantly leading people to search their Qin family's shops within the capital city. This caused the Qin family to suffer severe deficits now, with all their valuable shops completely sealed.
