He had originally wanted to help his daughter, but he had instead been scolded by her. Feeling depressed, he said, "I was afraid that Ling Er would be scared by you, wasn't I?"
"Hmph, you only know how to protect her. Look at how spoiled she is by you. She isn't even listening to me anymore." Mu Jianming knocked on the table.
Standing at the side, Mu Jian Ling trembled from the sudden attack. Ge Yuyu got up and pulled Mu Sword Spirit into her embrace, and said with a bit of resentment: "What has happened, and isn't the clan quite happy about it? Maybe we were overthinking it, but Ling'er is actually quite good in the clan, why must we push her away? "
When Mu Jian Ling heard that someone was going to push her out, she thought that her parents were giving her up and hurriedly grabbed onto the corner of Ge Yuyu's clothes.
"Ah …" When Mu Jianming heard Ge Yuyu's words, he let out a sigh and said, "You think I want to do this? I heard that the patriarch is going to leave in a few more years. When the time comes, the Mu Clan will have many members who will covet the Mu Clan, and Ling'er will only suffer if she follows us, and at that time, Mu Sen will use some other method to deal with our family. "
"Sigh, back then, I was too impulsive and wanted to fight for the position of Patriarch. In the end, I didn't fight for it and instead received Mu Sen's hatred." Mu Jianming regretfully shook his head and said.
"Well, isn't it time for that? We might still have a chance to win over some people. Although we know that you don't want to go too far in this aspect, you still have to think about it for Ling'er. " Ge Yanyu knew that this was a good opportunity to win her over.
"Sigh, that's the only thing we can do. Hopefully, we can make it in time. At worst, we can just send Ling'er to Water Moon Pavilion." Mu Jianming sighed, then turned to Mu Jian Ling and said: "Ling'er, you have never blamed me for all these years, speak the truth, I do not blame you."
Mm. In the beginning, it was because I saw that they were all cultivating, but I clearly could not train, and they all mocked me as trash. At that time, I was very angry at my father, but later on, it was gone, because I knew that my father had a bad relationship with my uncle. Mu Sword Spirit stuck her head out from Ge Yuyu's embrace and said.
Mu Jianming nodded his head and replied, "Even though you've been sensible since young, you've still not been able to escape the temptation of cultivation. Ling'er, do you know why you can feel the water attribute spiritual energy before you cultivate?"
"I only know that father, uncle, and those elders were talking about the Water Spirit Body. I don't know anything else." Mu Sword Spirit shook her head as she answered.
"That's right!" You know that I have a grudge with your uncle because I fought for the position of the family head back then. Furthermore, at that time, I did not know that he would hold such a grudge. "
After saying that, his face became blank. He sighed and continued, "That's why after he became the Patriarch, he tried his best to make things difficult for me. I also endured it time and time again, training outside for a long time. After you were born, I was also hoping for you to have good talent, but what I didn't expect is that you would actually have a Water Spirit Body when testing the compatibility of your attributes. "
Mu Jianming took a deep breath and said, "At that time, I was already worried about whether your uncle would be jealous or not. So, in the morning, I will discuss with your mother about sending you to some large sects in the inner region. This way, it will be able to develop very well, and will also save your mother and me from worrying. I have been searching for a long time, and finally made me understand something, but that outer deacon never believed me because he hasn't heard of anyone that could give birth to a water spirit body other than the inner regions. Just when I was about to succeed in persuading them, your mother sent me a message saying she wanted me to hurry back. Even if I go back now, they won't believe me anymore. " A hint of pity appeared on his face.
So that was how it was, Mu Sword Spirit's knot in her heart was finally untied.
In the dark room, there was a person kneeling on the ground, trembling in fear. Sitting opposite him was a skinny old man. His face was bloodless and if there were any other signs of life, he would have thought that the old man was dead.
The one kneeling on the ground was none other than Mu Sen. "Ancestor, I have something to report."
"Speak!" If it's nothing serious, you should know the consequences. " The skinny old man sitting cross-legged had no expression on his face, but his speech exuded an endless amount of dignity.
"Yes …" It's like this, someone among the younger generation has a Water Spirit Body. " Mu Sen did not dare to say anything unnecessary in front of this old man. He told him the most important part of the matter.
When he heard the words' Water Spirit Body ', the old man, who had his eyes closed, suddenly opened them. A ray of light shot out from his eyes and swept over Mu Sen's body. He asked in disbelief, "What did you say?"
"Yes …" It's someone from the younger generation of the family who was found to have a Water Spirit Body. " Mu Sen could clearly feel a pressure on his body as big beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
After hearing the exact answer for the second time, his face began to tremble. He did not dare to believe what he had heard. Even someone of his level would be moved.
"Forefather! Forefather!" Månsson called out twice.
Being called out by Mu Sen, he came back to reality and realized that he had lost his composure. He coughed lightly and said, "This is great news!" It was a blessing from the ancestors! I wonder which junior has the opportunity to do so. "
"She is the niece daughter of this junior. Her name is Mu Sword Spirit." A trace of undetectable disgust flashed in his eyes.
"Good, good! We must vigorously nurture this girl. " The Mu Clan Ancestor praised, "Since there is nothing else, leave! I still need to go into seclusion and see if I can make another breakthrough in my lifetime. Saying this, he sighed, "For the past few hundred years, no one in my clan has been able to break through to the next level. I am the only one who has struggled so hard to survive, and sooner or later, I will fall.
Under the gesture of the Mu Clan's Ancestor, they were supposed to leave. However, Mu Sen still didn't have any intention of leaving. Seeing him still kneeling there, he frowned and said with a displeased expression, "Is there anything else?"
"Grandson … Children and grandchildren … There is something else that I do not know whether I should tell you or not. " Månsson said hesitantly.
"Speak, don't stutter." The Mu family's old ancestor was extremely displeased at Mson's tardiness. If it was during normal times, he would definitely have suffered a lot.
"Children and grandchildren... My children and grandchildren have ways to help the Patriarch break through to the next realm. " Månsson finally said it out loud.
"What?" The Mu Clan's old ancestor screamed at what Mu Sen said. Today was the second time he lost his composure. This time, he was even more excited than when he heard about the Water Spirit Body.
