In the guest room.
“M-Master.”
Mu Shiyou stood in front of Mu Sheng with her head lowered and there was an unnoticeable tremor in her voice.
Mu Sheng was almost wrapped in gauze as he sat on the couch like a mummy.
“You still know that I’m your master. I thought you didn’t take me seriously at all!”
Mu Sheng’s sharp gaze shot at Mu Shiyou and his voice was full of coldness.
“Master, I didn’t do that on purpose.”
Mu Shiyou suddenly knelt down and clenched her fists. “I really had no idea that Mu Tianyan had regained his power. I didn’t hide it from you on purpose.”
“Not on purpose? So, it’s intentional?”
Mu Sheng repressed the anger in his heart and stared at Mu Shiyou with his eyes that seemed to be filled with poison.
Most of the time, he could indulge this talented disciple, but that was under the circumstance that she didn’t deceive him!
As the leader of the family, he would definitely not allow anyone to hide anything from him, even if it was his most valued disciple!
“Slap!”
Mu Sheng slapped Mu Shiyou across the air and hit her face to the side. A trace of red blood oozed out of the corner of her mouth.
Mu Shiyou felt a burning pain on her cheek, but she dared not to make a sound, for fear of angering Mu Sheng even more.
“Because of you, I lost all my dignity as the leader of the family. Tell me, do you deserve to die?”
Mu Sheng’s cold voice was full of viciousness, as if he was really going to kill Mu Shiyou.
Mu Shiyou’s face immediately turned as pale as paper and she immediately kowtowed loudly. “Please forgive me, Master. Please forgive me. I really didn’t deceive you on purpose. I’m sorry, Master. I really didn’t mean it.
“Right, Mu Tianyan must have done this on purpose!
“Mu Tianyan made us think that he was disabled on purpose. In fact, he has already recovered. Yes, Mu Tianyan must have done it on purpose for today.
“Master, Mu Tianyan must have a reason for doing this. Don’t let him succeed!”
Mu Shiyou thought she saw through Mu Tianyan’s trick, so she wanted to put Mu Sheng’s attention on Mu Tianyan.
“Hm! Do you really think you can fool me?”
Mu Sheng’s eyes were sharp. He raised his hand and let out a stream of internal energy, knocking Mu Shiyou away directly.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Mu Shiyou, who was knocked away, hit the cabinet behind her. The decorative vase on the cabinet fell to the ground and shattered with a loud sound.
“Hm…”
The piercing pain on her back made Mu Shiyou’s face twist, but she still gritted her teeth and endured it, not daring to scream.
At this moment, the door of the guest room was suddenly pushed open from the outside without any warning.
A tall, skinny old man with gray hair walked in furiously. He didn’t even look at Mu Shiyou, who was sitting on the floor, as he rushed at Mu Shengzhi and asked, “Have you gone to make trouble with Mu Tianyan?”
In fact, the old man had already guessed the answer after seeing Mu Sheng’s messy look at this moment, but he still had some hope in his mind.
Seeing the person who broke into his territory directly, Mu Sheng’s already bad expression became even more sullen. “Second Elder, are you questioning me?
“I don’t need to tell you what I’m doing and what to do, do I, Second Elder?”
“Hm!”
The Second Elder of the Mu family grunted coldly. “If it’s just your own business, as an elder, I certainly won’t interfere.
“But now, it concerns the interests of the entire Mu family, so I, as an elder, have the responsibility to take care of it. Otherwise, how can I live up to the trust of the previous family leader?”
