Chapter 5248: 5.1000 Benefiting the Masses

At the same time, the Old Master of the Mu family, having received the news, swiftly arrived at Changle Street with his clansmen.

When he saw Mu Jingfeng, the Old Master couldn't help but be stunned.

The Old Master and his group had all witnessed firsthand how disgraced Mu Jingfeng had been after his failed rebellion and how he had left.

Yet now, he was actually healthy and well, standing here with such vigor, which truly shocked them.

No one knew what exactly had happened to Mu Jingfeng.

Old Master Mu's face darkened, and he couldn't help but bellow, "Jingfeng, are you truly going down this path?"

Becoming an enemy of the family, becoming a mortal enemy to your own daughter!

Mu Jingfeng glanced at Old Master Mu. "Father, I've long had no way out."

Fifth Uncle Mu Jingyang stomped his foot in exasperation. "Mu Jingfeng, you have betrayed the entire Mu family! For your own selfish desires, you opened the Mu family's doors to Heavenly Fate! You not only brought people to the Mu family to ransack for talismans but also tried to kill your own daughter and your own kin! You are simply insane beyond words!"

"Elder Uncle, if you have even a shred of conscience left, turn back quickly," Mu Wuzi said, standing beside his father.

Mu Jingfeng couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Hahahaha! What a show of hypocrisy and false righteousness! Turn back? Do you think I can still turn back now?"

"I'm telling all of you! I, Mu Jingfeng, if I hadn't been forced by you all, would I have embarked on such a path of no return? Every single one of you present here played a part in forcing me, pushing me to a dead end!" he roared furiously, his old face flushed red. "It's all your fault."

Qiao Mu couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Why are you wasting so much breath on him? This kind of person will always shift the blame onto others for anything they do. He's a man of a thousand reasons; he always believes he's in the right."

"Jingfeng, you've disappointed your father greatly." Old Master Mu shook his head, slowly closing his eyes.

Mu Jingfeng sneered. "Don't change the subject. Why talk about me? What should be discussed now isn't my 'good daughter'?"

"Right!" A few stooges' voices popped up from the crowd again.

"The Crown Princess, for her own selfish desires, refuses to contribute the sacred medicine to the Three Continents. She is too selfish and too heartless! We cannot allow such a person to be our Crown Princess!"

"Yes, we can't let her continue to be the Crown Princess, to continue to be the future Empress of the Divine Land!"

"Yes, yes!"

In the crowd, there were only a few scattered voices constantly fanning the flames and stirring the emotions of the masses.

However, the commoners remained somewhat hesitant, looking at each other, their gazes falling upon the Crown Prince and the little Crown Princess.

Neither of these two were easy to provoke.

If they could avoid provoking them, none of the commoners wanted to foolishly invite trouble from these two.

It's just that... the allure of the sacred medicine was simply too great for people.

Among the crowd, there were also a few hot-blooded youths who, incited by the stooges, started shouting, "The Crown Princess should hand over the sacred medicine!"

"Yes, hand it over!"

"Hand over the sacred medicine to benefit us common folk!"

Qi Xuanxuan was so angry she yelled, "Benefit you bunch of useless rogues? I'd rather feed it to pigs!"

"What did you say??" A few youths glared angrily at Qi Xuanxuan, looking as if they were ready to fight at the slightest disagreement.

Qi Xuanxuan suddenly flung her cloak to the ground, hooked her finger at the few red-browed, green-eyed youths.
