Chapter 149: Attitude!

When passing by the jungle he had once been to, Xu Mu did not stop. Although his strength now was a hundred times stronger than before, he still had no confidence in dealing with that mysterious woman.

Continuing to fly for less than half an hour, the buildings of Baihefang City were already visible from afar, and there was also a graceful figure appearing in his field of vision.

Wearing a bright yellow dress, she stood in the void, the light and thin fabric gently swaying, showcasing her graceful curves. Her long hair fell softly on her shoulders, gently swaying with the breeze, making her even more captivating.

Her appearance was delicate, with distinct facial features. Her big watery eyes blinked, shining brightly through her long eyelashes.

She stood elegantly there, clouds sliding past her, forming a clear contrast with her yellow clothes, making her even more enchanting.

"Master!"

Seeing Xu Mu flying over, Chi Feiyan's face showed joy, and she immediately rushed towards him disregarding her image.

Xu Mu waved his hand and used his spiritual power to push her away.

Chi Feiyan looked aggrieved, lost, and pitiful.

"Are you so free? Coming here to wait for me," Xu Mu said in a cold tone.

"I just wanted to see you!" Chi Feiyan said, holding onto her clothes, looking at him with pleading eyes, appearing pitiful and helpless.

"..."

Alright! I'll pity you this once!

Xu Mu revealed his "lifebound magic weapon" and immediately started a battle with Chi Feiyan in the air.

...

After the matter was settled, Xu Mu and Chi Feiyan returned to Baihefang City together. On the way, Chi Feiyan told Xu Mu everything about her family.

"With your abilities, can't you deal with him?" Xu Mu asked in surprise.

According to what Chi Feiyan said, the reason her father was fighting for power with her was all because of the new stepmother he married.

That widow from the Lu family.

For some reason, the stepmother made Chi Shouyuan obediently listen to her and help an outsider deal with his own daughter.

However, Xu Mu also learned from Chi Feiyan that the woman was only at the Qi Refining stage, so if it was troublesome, they could just kill her.

"That woman has some means. I've tried a few times but couldn't defeat her, and it only made my father hate me even more!" Chi Feiyan's face turned dark.

Hearing Chi Feiyan's various scheming methods, Xu Mu shook his head speechlessly.

This woman was usually quite clever, so why did she become confused at critical moments?

Or perhaps she was thinking too much, calculating too much, and caring too much.

To the point where she had forgotten that in the cultivation world, strength was everything.

Just directly go and kill her, why bother with all these messy things?

"Now that I know what to do, gather them and I'll handle it," Xu Mu said.

"Master, you're not planning to..." Chi Feiyan was afraid that Xu Mu would directly kill her father.

The reason she was being cautious was because she didn't want to commit a great crime and lose Chi Shouyuan as a fighting force.

After all, they were father and daughter, and it would be best if they could resolve things peacefully.

"Just notify them, no need for so much nonsense," Xu Mu said with a slightly cold expression. Chi Feiyan didn't dare to ask any further and quickly used a talisman to send a message.

When the two arrived at the city, there were only twenty people in the welcoming team at the entrance, and the leader was just a Qi Refining sixth level small steward.

Chi Feiyan's face immediately turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

The attitude of the two families was clearly slapping her in the face, and the words spoken by the small steward made the situation even clearer.

"The humble one is here to welcome Senior Xu on behalf of the family master! Senior, please come inside!"

"Senior Xu?" Xu Mu couldn't help but laugh.

This old ancestor who was respectfully invited by the two families had now become a senior.

"It seems there's quite a difference from what you said," Xu Mu said calmly, looking at Chi Feiyan.

"Master, I..." Chi Feiyan hurriedly wanted to explain.

She also didn't expect the two families to be so audacious and set up a situation like this at this time.

With her intelligence, she had already figured out the reason behind it in the blink of an eye.

It is nothing more than wanting to take this opportunity to express their attitude to Xu Mu, making him understand and leave, while also forcing Chi Feiyan to make a statement.

According to the thoughts of the Chi and Lü families, they now have two Foundation Building cultivators and a family residence. They are thriving and no longer need to rely on Xu Mu, an outsider.

The reason they have this idea is actually quite simple.

First, Xu Mu has never revealed his true strength in front of them.

In their eyes, Xu Mu is just a Foundation Building cultivator who has advanced for only a dozen years, and even if his strength is strong, he is only at the third level of Foundation Building.

With two Foundation Building cultivators on their side, they naturally have no need to fear Xu Mu.

Second, they do not know that the success of both families today is thanks to the cooperation between Chi Feiyan and Xu Mu.

In their view, Xu Mu not only cannot provide them with help, but will also consume their resources.

After all, resources are scarce, and the resources consumed by a Foundation Building cultivator can support a group of Qi Refining cultivators.

This has caused some of the clan members who originally stood on Chi Feiyan's side to switch to Chi Shouyuan's side at this time.

Third, in their view, the conflict between Chi Feiyan and Chi Shouyuan is their own family matter, and regardless of who wins or loses, they are all family.

Xu Mu, on the other hand, is an outsider, equivalent to inviting a wolf into the house. If they don't drive him away at this time, he may join forces with Chi Feiyan and drive out Chi Shouyuan, ultimately monopolizing both families.

Although Chi Feiyan has figured out all of this, she is still so angry that she almost spits blood.

She went to great lengths to flatter Xu Mu, afraid that she wouldn't be able to win him over, but now these people actually want to drive him away.

Of course, this situation would also arise due to her good secrecy measures and Xu Mu's long-term lack of presence.

After all, the fewer people who know about selling Foundation Building cultivators, the better.

"No need to explain! Let's go!"

Xu Mu's eyes narrowed, and Chi Feiyan immediately closed her mouth.

Led by the steward, the two of them walked towards the Chi family's residence.

As they walked, Xu Mu looked around the streets on both sides and found that they had become much more prosperous since his last visit. It was obvious that Chi Feiyan had been managing them carefully.

Many people recognized Chi Feiyan on the way, and coupled with the Chi family's entourage leading the way, the surrounding low-level cultivators all made way, giving Xu Mu a taste of being the center of attention.

In less than the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, a magnificent mansion appeared in Xu Mu's sight.

This mansion used to be the ancestral home of the Song family. It was destroyed by several major families before the invasion of the demonic path. Later, it was occupied by wandering cultivators until the previous family settled here and rebuilt it.

After Chi Feiyan took over, it was expanded again, looking even more grand than when the Song family was there.

However, it was only grand in appearance. If it came to heritage, it was far inferior to the Song family.

When the Song family was still around, they had five Foundation Building cultivators and thousands of clan members. Various formations of different sizes were densely spread out, making it difficult for an ordinary Gold Core cultivator to break through in a short period of time.

In the past, when there were no Foundation Building cultivators guarding the place, several major families suffered heavy losses when they attacked together.

But now, the mansion appeared grand on the surface, but in reality, it was just an empty shell.

A set of fourth-tier large-scale formations was not cheap, and the two families couldn't afford to set them up temporarily.

As the two of them entered, the clan members and servants all bowed, giving Chi Feiyan a little face.

When they arrived at the main hall, Chi Shouyuan led the former head of the Lu family, Lu Yi, and others to greet them.

"Fellow Daoist Xu's visit has truly brought glory to our two families. I apologize for not welcoming you from afar, please don't be offended!" Chi Shouyuan said with a hearty laugh, clearly treating Xu Mu as an outsider. Chi Feiyan was on the verge of cursing in anger.

But with Xu Mu's instructions, she could only endure it.

However, she knew in her heart that Chi Shouyuan had completely offended Xu Mu this time.

No one would feel good when a dog they raised turned around and bit them.

Xu Mu didn't show any signs of anger. His gaze swept over everyone who came to greet him, finally settling on a woman.

Her eyes shimmered like autumn water, a faint blush on her face, rosy lips slightly upturned. She wore a pink gauze dress that easily stirred desire with every movement and smile.

When she noticed Xu Mu's attention, the woman immediately cast a few seductive glances at him, licked her lips, exuding a tempting aura.

Xu Mu didn't react, he withdrew his gaze and looked at Chi Shouyuan.

"What did you just call me?" Xu Mu said calmly.

"Huh? Fellow Daoist Xu! What's wrong?" Chi Shouyuan asked, puzzled.

They were both at the Foundation Building stage now, and they should be on equal footing.

"Who gave you the audacity? How dare you address your own family's ancestor like this!"

Before the words even finished, Xu Mu's figure disappeared from where he stood. By the time Chi Shouyuan reacted, Xu Mu was already in front of him. He raised his hand high, fingers spread open, and slapped him.

Boom!

A terrifying force descended from the sky. As Xu Mu's palm landed on Chi Shouyuan, his eyes bulged like a fish, bloodshot. His body crackled and popped, and then with a thud, he knelt down.

The ground cracked inch by inch, with Chi Shouyuan's knees at the center, forming a spiderweb-like pattern that spread several zhang.

At the same time, a tremendous aura, like an overwhelming sea, emanated from Xu Mu's body, causing everyone present to have bulging veins, trembling uncontrollably, and falling to their knees.

"Remember! This is the attitude you should have when you meet your family's ancestor!"

Bosses! Please try not to save drafts, it's easy to...! Thank you for your support!
