Chapter 159 The Power Behind
In the hall, the bodies of the Great Elder, the Second Elder and the Third Elder were all lying quietly at He Qinkong's feet. Just now, a servant came to report that Mu Feng and others spoke loudly on the street, saying that whenever their He family saw the Mu family, they would think of a mouse and hide everywhere.
As soon as the person who came to report said that, He Qinkong fell down the plate.
There were a few people standing in front of him, and they were the sons and nephews who accompanied him to the Mu family.
Everyone showed an angry and sad look on their faces. A younger young man said hatefully: "The Mu family is really too much. Can we really only endure this tone?"
He Qinkong snorted coldly, and a vicious look flashed in his eyes.
"I must let all the Mu family die. Didn't that adult before say that he could contact him if he was in trouble? Let's contact him now! Since the Mu family will not give me a way out, I will also let him taste the feeling of despair!"
On the third day after Mu Ning returned to Tianxue City, the Mu family and He family seemed to have become calm, but the discussions in Tianxue City became more intense than before.
Mu Feng was still busy collecting the shop. Mu Ning collected several jade talismans in the shop that could be used for temporary contact and injected a trace of his own spiritual power into the jade talisman. If Mu Feng and others encounter an emergency, as long as he crushed the jade talisman, he could feel it.
The weather is still very good today, so I arrived at Lan's house as agreed.
The Lan family is the richest family in Tianxue City except Wanbaolou. In Tianxue City, all forces have commercial connections with him. Therefore, the luxury and luxury of the Lan family's mansion are also not comparable to other families, especially compared with the Mu family, which was extremely down and out of place before, it is even more in the sky and underground.
Not long after walking to Lan's house, Lan Yue came to greet Mu Ning in person.
If this scene is seen by the young masters of other families in Tianxuecheng, they will definitely be shocked and may even be jealous of Mu Ning. Because Lan Yue, as a famous beauty in Tianxuecheng, is indeed a very naive woman. Although she will smile and look at people on weekdays, her eyes are obviously indifferent, let alone how close she is to him.
It is even rare to see Lan Yue go out to greet a boy under twenty years old.
Since they met yesterday, their indifference has eased a lot. Under Lan Yue's guidance, Mu Ning passed through the ** courtyard of Lan Mansion and another garden, and then he truly arrived at the Lan family's reception place.
The Lan family seems to be more luxurious than in memory.
Before entering the main hall, a familiar and warm voice rang in Mu Ning's ears.
"Nether Ning, you are here, I have been waiting for a long time!"
As he said that, a middle-aged man in brocade robe walked out with eager strode out, and this man was the patriarch of the Lan family, Lanshan, and his father's first friend.
When Mu Ning heard Lanshan call him, he suddenly felt a little familiar. Lanshan used to call him like this, and even when he was younger, he would always call him like this and tease him. Now that he hasn't seen him for so many years, Lanshan is still so enthusiastic, as if there is no gap between them.
Mu Ning had no waves in his eyes. He strode forward with a faint smile on his face, "It made the Lan tribe wait for a long time."
Lan Shan interrupted Mu Ning's words, "What's the name of the leader of the Lan tribe? You don't have to be so disgusted with me, you should call him Uncle Lan."
"Yes, Uncle Lan."
Mu Ning responded lightly.
Lanshan seemed not to see a trace of alienation on Mu Ning's face, but still enthusiastically invited Mu Ning in as before. After reaching the dining table, Lanshan quickly let all the villains retreat.
At this moment, the smile on Lanshan's face decreased a little, and the more surprised they appeared.
He looked Mu Ning up and down for a long time before he said in surprise: "It seems that his nephew Ning must have had his own experience over the years. If Brother Mu had a spirit in heaven, he would definitely be very pleased to see you like this."
Muning smiled slightly but didn't laugh, "Thank you for the praise of Uncle Lan."
"well."
Seeing Mu Ning like this, Lanshan sighed slightly, and then said, "It seems that Nephew Ning doesn't want to pay much attention to my old bones. Well, I won't talk about those useless things to you today. Now that you have been designated as the young patriarch by you and you have the corresponding strength, I will decide to tell you some things."
After hearing this, Mu Ning's expression changed slightly, and his eyes suddenly became sharp and he looked at Lanshan.
Lanshan said to Lan Yue: "Yue'er, go down first, I have something to say with Nephew Ning."
Lan Yue immediately stood up, bowed to the two of them and quickly retreated.
Mu Ning gradually felt a little confused in his heart. Even his daughter should avoid anything?
It was not until Lan Yue left that Mu Ning couldn't wait to ask: "Father Lan, what do you know about the person behind the scenes who harmed my Mu family?"
Looking at the anxious Mu Ning, Lanshan frowned slightly and said, "Don't be anxious, I'll tell you slowly, but what I want to tell you first is that I invite you here today to keep your criminal low-key, otherwise if it attracts a real strong man, it will be troublesome."
Mu Ning's expression faded and said, "How strong are you, the so-called real strong man?"
"A strong man in the alchemy realm!"
Lanshan looked at Mu Ning and slowly spit out these two words from his mouth.
Mu Ning frowned immediately, "The Dan Realm Powerful? How could a strong man in this realm target our family?"
"They seem to be looking for something from your house."
...
The two quickly started a conversation. After half an hour, Lanshan called Lan Yue, who was still waiting outside.
Now, the three of them began to really start eating.
Lan Yue felt a little surprised that Mu Ning's attitude towards Lanshan had changed so much in just half an hour. He watched the two laugh and chat happily. If they were not familiar with people, they would probably think that they were old friends they had been with for many years.
Halfway through the meal, Lanshan suddenly smiled and said, "By the way, Nephew Ning, I have something to give to you."
"What?" Mu Ning asked curiously.
Immediately, Lanshan took out a black sign from his Sumeru Ring. The sign was surrounded by patterns inlaid with gold wire, and in the middle was a big "treasure" engraved.
"Nether Ning, you came back a coincidence. A few days later, our Lan family's chamber of commerce and Wanbaolou jointly held an auction. This is the first time our Lan family has engaged in this type of cooperation with Wanbaolou. Therefore, the auction items inside are very precious and rare. The auction that day was hosted by the little girl Lan Yue. Nephew Ning must come and have a look at it at that time."
As he said that, his voice suddenly became much smaller, as if he was about to whisper. "I don't even know what the last item prepared by Wanbaolou is. It is said to be a very rare treasure of genius. Anyway, as the finale, it will definitely not be an ordinary product. You remember to come over at that time."
Mu Ning closed the sign and smiled and said, "That's for sure. I'm back now and I need to show my face in front of everyone. This auction should be a good opportunity to show my face, and there must be many people who went there."
"That's natural. With the brand you have, many people can't buy it even if they want to use money."
Lan Yue, who was standing beside her, said with a smile while picking a piece of meat for her father.
"Since that's the case, I'll go even more!"
The three of them had a great time talking, and Mu Ning was unconsciously infected by this atmosphere. Looking at the two people beside him, he felt a sense of warmth at home.
Over the past few years, he has been neglected and rolled his eyes in Tianyuan Sect. Although no one dared to really attack him, such days made him extremely cold. Even the only senior brother Chen wanted to kill him for a few pills.
"Oh, by the way, I wondered if Brother Mu knew that his child could achieve such great success, would he have agreed to your marriage?"
While Mu Ning was silently moved, Lanshan suddenly said something like this.
Lan Yue's face suddenly appeared dizzy, and she looked at Lan Shan with a angrily voice, saying, "Dad, why did you say this suddenly!"
The atmosphere suddenly became a little strange. Lanshan touched his beard and looked at the two young people in front of him. The more he looked, the more satisfied he felt. But Mu Ning became a little overwhelmed.
He suddenly heard what the Great Elder said a few days ago.
If anyone knows his current talent, even the Lan family will send his daughter here.
Unexpectedly, it was actually sent here. When Mu Ning thought of this, he couldn't smile bitterly.
