Chapter 2: Flash Sales

Mu Yuanshan is indeed remarkable, having ascended to the True Origin Realm at the tender age of fifteen, and being accepted as a disciple by the Xuanmen Palace of the immortal sect, he has become a legend in Shitang Town. His mistake lies in having given birth to the useless Mu Xian and treating this waste as a treasure

"Beast, you seek death!" Mu Geitu shouted fiercely and lunged at Mu Xian, clearly intent on tearing Mu Xian to pieces.

Upon hearing Mu Xian speak, Ling Tian began to be wary of Mu Gui Tu. After discovering that Mu Gui Tu harbored murderous intent, Ling Tian, disregarding the injuries within his body, unhesitatingly raised his blade to shield Mu Xian, his face displaying a resolute expression as if he were prepared to face death.

Moreover, since the Red Wolf has appeared, it is impossible for the other members of the Fire Wolf Gang not to show up. Ling Tian can even imagine the scenario of the Fire Wolf Gang members laying out an intricate web in the dense forest.

Mu Xian was startled by the arrow and let out a cry, then promptly fainted.

"Uncle Ling, Elder Liu is one of us; he has already come to take us home. Why should I still get into the carriage?" Mu Xian seemed oblivious to the urgency in Ling Tian's tone, asking with a "completely bewildered" expression.

Even Ling Tian himself could hardly believe what was happening before his eyes. After delivering a single strike, he fell into a daze, allowing the scalding blood to splatter all over his body

Realizing that he had unknowingly fallen into a trap and was severely injured as a result, Ling Tian felt even more despair. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and, unwilling to accept his fate, asked, "Old dog, Brother Mu is noble and righteous, treating every member of the family as his own kin without distinction. Under his leadership, the family has thrived more than ever. Why must you covet the position of the family head?"

At the moment the arrow was shot, Ling Tian's eyelid twitched, and his body tensed up suddenly. After merely glancing at the arrow, he let out a sigh of relief, for this arrow was soft and lacked any force, certainly unable to reach Mu Xian's side

Although Mu Gui stated that he would not harm Mu Xian's life, this was predicated on Mu Xian honestly relinquishing the family power. If Mu Xian were to refuse to cooperate, Mu Gui would undoubtedly show no mercy.

"Xian'er, it's dangerous outside, you should hurry back to the carriage!" At this moment, recalling the perilous situation, Ling Tian shouted anxiously.

At this moment, Mu Xian's face showed no trace of panic or fear; instead, it was replaced by a calmness and composure that suggested he had everything under control

Upon hearing Mu Xian's words, Mu Gui Tu seemed as if someone had grasped his throat, his voice abruptly cut off, and his aged face turned a deep shade of red

Clearly witnessing Mu Xian's unbearable reaction, Ling Tian could not help but turn his head aside, while Mu Gui Tu cast a disdainful glance at Mu Xian before continuing to restrain Ling Tian. Only Hong Lang looked at Mu Xian with a face full of contempt, laughing loudly.

Ling Tian clearly did not anticipate that Mu Xian would disregard his admonitions and step out of the carriage. Although he possessed considerable combat strength, he was somewhat inferior compared to Mu Gui Tu, not to mention that beside him stood the Fire Wolf Gang leader, Hong Lang, who was equally matched in cultivation and was watching intently.

Mu Xian spoke while getting up from the ground. He looked at Mu Gui Tu with eyes full of disdain and contempt, and his voice became extremely indifferent.

Ling Tian let out a cold snort upon hearing this, casting a glance at Mu Gui Tu filled with disdain and contempt

Haha, I never expected that the legendary Mu Yuanshan would have such a useless son; truly, heaven is blind.

Seeing this, Ling Tian's face flushed with embarrassment, and he felt even more disappointed in Mu Xian. Meanwhile, Mu Gui Tu and Hong Lang from wwwhetushucom.com were momentarily taken aback, but then a mocking expression appeared on their faces.

Mu Guitu's hypocrisy is one thing, but being exposed for his true nature is another, especially when he is scolded face-to-face by someone he considers a worthless person. This makes Mu Guitu even more furious and ashamed.

What no one noticed was that as Mu Xian's body moved backward, several colorful flowers and grasses had already appeared in his hands, which were hidden behind his back. Moreover, his hands were rapidly crushing those flowers and grasses into a fine powder, with drops of dark green juice subtly emerging from his palms.

Jian Ling Tian remained as unruly as ever. Mu Gui Tu sighed softly and then spoke coldly: "Since you are seeking your own demise, do not blame me, Mu, for being heartless. You must remember, it is your stubbornness and foolishness that have cut off the path to survival for Mu Xian and her son"

In an instant, the red wolf stared wide-eyed in astonishment, for after the clash of swords, the black sword in Mu Guitu's hand flew out of his grasp, while the long knife in Ling Tian's hand showed no sign of slowing down, continuing to strike down towards the top of Mu Guitu's head

A sharp sound of "clang" echoed as the long sword collided violently with the black sword, producing a series of dazzling sparks in the air

The dark green liquid seemed to be bound by an invisible force, emitting no scent whatsoever, nor did it fall from Mu Xian's hand

Upon hearing Mu Xian's words, Ling Tian felt a sense of nausea as if he were about to spit blood. Could it be that Mu Xian had become foolish from studying at Yunyang Academy, completely unable to see the situation before him?

Ling Tian felt an unbearable bitterness in his mouth, his face contorted with pain. Not to mention that there was Mu Guaitu standing guard beside the Red Wolf, even without Mu Guaitu, in the absence of a good horse, Ling Tian would still be unable to ensure Mu Xian's safety and escape from the pursuit of the Red Wolf and the Fire Wolf Gang.

"Don't... don't kill me..." Mu Xian, sitting paralyzed on the ground, turned pale under the fierce gaze of the red wolf. In a state of panic, he shouted and frantically moved backward, as if trying to distance himself from the red wolf in hopes of finding a glimmer of survival

Mu Yuanshan is willing to sacrifice everything for his worthless son, but we are under no obligation to expend everything on his useless son, so both Mu Yuanshan and his son must die

As Ling Tian began to speak, Mu Guitu did not hesitate to take action. A long sword, as black as ink, emitted a dragon's roar from his back and then flew towards Ling Tian like a bolt of lightning

Ling Tian, if you dare to make any reckless moves, I can guarantee that the useless person beside you will become a beehive! The giant bow in Hong Lang's hand was already drawn taut, and he licked his lips with his tongue, a glimmer of excitement flashing in his eyes

... ... ''

As soon as a word was uttered from Mu Guitu's mouth, the long knife in Ling Tian's hand fell upon the top of Mu Guitu's head

As the red wolf laughed heartily, a pair of eyes roamed over Mu Xian's body, filled with the mocking expression of a cat playing with its prey. The steel bow in hand also shifted in accordance with the gaze, as if searching for the right spot on Mu Xian to strike.

"You all... aren't you here to pick me up? Are you also here to kill me?" After taking a few steps forward, Mu Xian seemed to suddenly realize his true predicament. He stumbled underfoot, fell to the ground, and his eyes were filled with a look of terror.

At the moment of panic, Ling Tian hurriedly drew his sword to defend himself, but due to not having enough time to channel the internal energy, he was struck by Mu Guitu's sword and sent flying several dozen meters, resulting in blood oozing from the tiger's mouth of his right hand, which he was gripping the sword with, and a trickle of blood at the corner of his mouth, his face turning extremely pale

Ling Tian, you have also seen that Mu Xian is such a useless person. Even if you risk your life, you cannot protect him. Why not serve me instead? As long as you promise not to betray me, I can ensure the safety of Mu Xian and her child. After Mu Xian "fainted," Mu Gui's tone shifted, and he extended an olive branch to Ling Tian.

Old dog, it is clearly you who harbors malicious intent. Why do you shift the blame for plotting against the lives of the lady and the child onto me, Ling? Ling Tian had originally adjusted his mindset, preparing to fight with all his might, but a single gentle word from Mu Gui Tu immediately made his eyes bulge with rage, and his emotions became unsettled.

In order to extend the life of his worthless son, he was foolish enough to steal the treasured possessions of his sect, resulting not only in the destruction of his own cultivation but also in his expulsion from the sect, which even led to his family suffering oppression

Mu Xian spoke as he walked briskly towards the dense forest

What Mu Ge Tu did not notice was that, as he passionately denounced Mu Yuan Shan's various misdeeds, a faint, almost imperceptible green mist quietly drifted towards his nostrils, and even the fire wolf beside him was not spared.

In the eyes of the Red Wolf, even at his peak, Ling Tian was not a match for Mu Guitu, let alone in his severely injured state. Therefore, the current Mu Xian and Ling Tian's servant were no different from the dead.

It may be because he truly detests Mu Xian; as Mu Gui Tu spoke more and more passionately, by the end, his voice became somewhat hysterical

"Elder Liu, if you covet the family's resources, just say so. Why bother with so many pretentious reasons? You have already torn the facade with us; is there any need to disguise it before us?" Before Mu Guitu could finish speaking, a youthful voice suddenly rang in everyone's ears. It was Mu Xian, who had just fainted, now "awakened".

"Waste, be careful, or I might accidentally shoot off your little thing, and then you won't be able to urinate, nor enjoy the pleasures of intimacy between men and women anymore." The Red Wolf suddenly burst into laughter, and the sharp arrow in his hand was shot out with a "bang."

With a crisp sound of "swish," Mu Guitu's body was cleaved in two by the long knife. Throughout the entire process, Mu Guitu did not make a single move to evade.

Mu Geitu directly locked onto Ling Tian's aura, while the Ironwood arrow of the Red Wolf was unknown when it was nocked onto the steel bow, the arrow pointed menacingly at Mu Xian

Ling Tian, seeing this, became extremely anxious. He extended his hand, intending to stop Mu Xian, who was passing by him. However, he heard a cold snort, and at the same time, the buzzing sound of a bowstring resonated from behind. An overwhelming killing intent rapidly spread outside Qinglin Ridge, as Mu Gui Tu and the Red Wolf struck simultaneously.

At the critical moment, a desperate cry escaped from Mugeitu's lips

Brother Mu, twenty years ago I owed you a life, and it seems today I must repay that debt! Remembering how I failed to heed Mu Yuanshan's admonitions and ultimately could not protect Mu Xian's life, a sharp pain pierced through Ling Tian's heart, and a resolute expression gradually appeared on his face

Seeing Mu Geitu's body being forcefully split in half by Ling Tian, Hong Lang was stunned, unable to close his mouth for a long time. He was completely shocked by the scene unfolding before him.

Seeing Ling Tian recklessly withstand the lethal attack from Mu Guitu in his rage despite his severe injuries, the Red Wolf could not help but reveal a mocking expression on his face. His gaze towards Ling Tian was filled with pity and sympathy, and he even put away the giant bow in his hands, standing with his arms crossed to watch the spectacle.
