Chapter 369 The Mu Clan is About to Be Exterminated
An eerie silence fell over the air.
The two younger children were embarrassed to hear such private conversations.
Even Ye Yu felt a little uncomfortable.
Shao Yi remained noncommittal.
Such words may fool others, but they cannot fool him.
The efficacy of Huanyan Dan gradually became unstable.
After all, her true form is not a snow weasel. If she gives birth to a cub, the Rejuvenating Pill will need to maintain the cub's appearance, so the effects of the medicine in the mother's body will naturally gradually dissipate.
Shaoyi did not tell anyone about this matter.
Especially the white wood.
Her companions were all at least at the sixth rank, the difference wasn't huge, but Mu Bai was only at the first rank. If she were to give birth to a snow weasel cub, the Rejuvenation Pill would probably be...
Therefore, he was constantly worried.
She couldn't prevent her from getting close to Mu Bai, but she also couldn't reveal this matter to Mu Bai.
Fortunately, he heard that Mu Bai repeatedly refused to get close to him, citing physical discomfort as the reason, and he was finally able to put his mind at ease.
Although he had doubts, he didn't think about it in detail.
Seeing Mu Bai so flustered now, it's likely that he's been aware of this all along and has been doing it on purpose.
The atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
Ying Ze smoothed things over.
"It's just a Rejuvenation Pill. Even if she's an ugly monster, she already has offspring, so what?"
It's just a rejuvenating pill.
He's not the kind of person who judges people by their appearance.
Why bring her up over something so trivial?
Shao Yi remained silent, her gaze fixed on Mu Bai, which gradually hardened.
Mu Bai lowered her head, not daring to look at him.
The snow weasel clan swore an oath.
This matter must never be spoken of. Even if you kill him, he will not reveal a single word.
Shaoyi looked away.
"Since you are already aware of the matter of the Rejuvenating Pill, I will not elaborate further. However, the matter of the Taihao Clan concerns the reputation of the clan. After the birth of the child, I hope you will all keep quiet. Do you all understand?"
This means that the Taihao clan is determined to keep it a secret.
Di Xi was unaware of the whole story and was still confused when he heard about the Rejuvenation Pill. However, he hated Taihao Clan to the core and wished Mu Yunyun would stay far away from him. There was no reason for him not to agree.
"He's just a cub. There are so many cubs in the clan. Even without a father, how could we, as his adoptive fathers, not love him?"
“Exactly.” Ying Ze chimed in, “If he doesn’t care about recognizing cubs, then forget it. To hell with his sacred mountain, we don’t care.”
He then looked at Ye Yu.
"what do you say?"
Ye Yu didn't know what to say.
He had never heard of the Rejuvenating Pill.
He didn't know why Mu Bai was so nervous.
All he knew was that Taihao had taken the initiative to seek pleasure with him, and that she had even made connections with the Northern Yin clan in order to go to the sacred mountain...
"I'm too busy taking care of the cubs to handle this myself, so you can decide on this."
It seems they're not planning to get involved in this mess.
To prevent his cubs from becoming the target of public criticism, he couldn't rashly step forward at this time.
Upon hearing everyone's opinions, Shaoyi ordered the door to be opened.
"Go and invite the fox clan over."
......
Hu Qing was dizzy.
He had been drinking, and was taken to a cave where he was threatened and scared so much that he wet himself and fainted.
When she wakes up, Lord Shaoyi will entrust the cub that is about to be born in the Great Clan Chief's belly to the Fox Clan for upbringing.
what's the situation?
He's a fox clan member, raising cubs?
Hu Qing pinched herself.
hiss--
My thigh hurts!
Not a dream!
This isn't a dream!
Lady Shaoyi is going to give the Great Clan Chief's cub to their fox clan!
This enormous surprise hit Hu Qing, leaving him reeling.
He didn't know how he got back; he only remembered that Lady Shaoyi told him to take good care of the cub and not to let it suffer any hardship...
His fox clan has had a cub... the great clan leader's cub...
"Brother Hu Qing, what did Lord Shaoyi say to you when he called you over?"
"We won't be kicked out, will we?"
"Brother Fox Qing, please say something!"
The little foxes surrounded him, chattering so loudly it gave him a headache.
Hu Qing realized what was happening.
He glanced at everyone, then stammered, "Lord Shaoyi asked me to raise the clan leader's cub..."
"what!"
"what!"
"what!"
After Hu Qingge did such a thing, how could Lord Shaoyi actually ask Hu Qingge to raise the cubs?
"What's going on?" someone asked, bewildered. "Lord Shaoyi isn't going to pursue the matter anymore?"
Fox Qingge's underhanded tactics caused such a huge misunderstanding, yet they weren't punished?
No.
and many more.
"Brother Fox Qing, Lord Shaoyi entrusted you with raising the cubs, could it be that you and the clan leader...?"
"How can it be!"
Hu Qing quickly rolled up his sleeves, afraid of being a second too late.
His arms were clean; he didn't look like he had been bound by a vow at all.
"Why would Lady Shaoyi entrust the cub to us when she was perfectly fine?"
"Is it possible that the patriarch is carrying Taihao...?"
Hu Qing immediately covered the boy's mouth.
"Are you out of your mind? How dare you say something like that!"
However, it was just this one sentence that made everyone suddenly realize the truth.
They are a fox clan.
Taihao was also a fox clan.
Considering the commotion these past two days, anyone with a discerning eye could easily guess what happened.
Hu Qing's heart pounded. Could it be that the clan leader had forced himself on Lord Taiheng...?
That's why it needs to be kept completely hidden?
No wonder!
No wonder Taihao suddenly went to the sacred mountain; perhaps he was so humiliated that he left immediately.
"No one is allowed to tell anyone about this, do you understand?"
"Of course, this is a cub of our fox clan!"
Despite the initial shock, once everyone calmed down, no one was unhappy.
From now on, their fox clan will be the father clan of the cubs!
This is like a windfall.
"I'll go find someone to set up the greenhouse!"
"I'm going to buy some animal hides!"
"I'll go get the wet nurse!"
The boy instantly became excited.
In the past, they envied the Tiger and Eagle tribes for having support, backing, and a promising future.
Now that their fox clan has cubs, they can't afford to be lacking in quality for the sake of their offspring.
Hu Qing thought so too.
"We need to expedite the livestock issue; Guangyuanzhou is not good enough." It's far from sufficient.
With so many offspring of the Great Clan Chief, they must fight for their offspring's strength and not let others outdo them!
Just do it.
Hu Qing didn't want to waste a single moment; he was more motivated than anyone else right now!
He's the wet nurse, so the baby will definitely be closest to him in the future!
No one can take the cub away!
......
sacred mountain.
Yin Dan knelt on the ground, the whip lashing his body. He gritted his teeth and dared not move.
Yin E, the young patriarch of the Yin clan, was so disappointed in his son that his hand holding the whip trembled.
"You wretched child, I wasted my life giving birth to you!"
"I've put in so much effort to get you to agree to the contract, and that's how the princess finally relented and agreed to let you come over. Don't be ungrateful!"
“Mother!” Yin Dan looked up, his eyes bloodshot. “Am I ungrateful, or is Mother trying to use me to consolidate her favor?”
"you!"
“Mother, in this sacred mountain, my Yin family has no place to stand. Even if I were to go there, what difference would it make? With my status, how could the Princess possibly look up to me!”
Yin E didn't want to listen to this nonsense.
“Your brother is already crippled. If you get the princess pregnant, how can my Yin family not have a place to stand?”
"Why should Mother deceive herself!"
Yin Dan felt extremely bitter.
After returning to the sacred mountain, he heard the news that his elder brother had been deposed.
The princess doted on her brother and stayed in his courtyard for three whole days. Immediately, she was framed by jealous people and had her legs gnawed off by a mountain beast.
He, Yin, dared not speak out against this matter, even though he knew it was suspicious. After all, in the Divine Mountain, his status was not even comparable to that of a slave.
The mother had no choice but to step up for the sake of the clan.
but!
Yin Dan's eyes instantly reddened.
However, he agreed to her request and even accepted her gift. In his heart, he had already become hers!
How could he possibly agree to form a contract with someone else!
"How could I have raised such an ungrateful wretch like you!" Yin E lashed him with a whip.
The whip, carrying a strong wind and barbs, scraped away most of the flesh.
Yin Dan groaned, clenching his fists tightly, his face turning pale with pain.
Yin E pointed at him and cursed.
"My Yin family has finally reached this point after much hardship..."
"Mother, listen to me!" He crawled a few steps, grabbed her skirt, and took out a pill from his robes. "This pill is a True Essence Pill, which can help you break through to a higher realm. As long as you focus on cultivation, my Yin family will have no place to stand in the Divine Mountain. Moreover, I agreed to cooperate with the Mu family in the Nine Provinces this time. The Mu family that forged the Azure Cloud Sword, you should have heard of them..."
He spoke hastily, trying to persuade his mother.
Unexpectedly, when the words "Mu Shi" were uttered, Yin E's expression changed.
"You actually went to see the Mu family!"
Even though she had been in charge of the clan for many years and was calm and composed, she was still chilled to the bone by those words.
At the beginning of the month, Yin Dan sent a maid to him. The maid said that Mu had killed a concubine from a collateral branch of the Yin family with the Immortal Deer Vine.
She didn't want to bother with such trivial matters.
When she, a member of the Northern Yin clan, arrived at the sacred mountain, all the lands and seas were but fleeting clouds. However, with the death of a concubine, she was already struggling to move forward on the sacred mountain. How could she possibly stand up for a dead person?
She casually dismissed the maid.
Unexpectedly, and without knowing what methods this maid used, she actually managed to serve the princess. Not only that, the princess pitied her for escaping death and decided to stand up for her. In her eyes, the Mu family was just a bunch of dead people!
Yin E did not look at the True Essence Pill.
She knelt on the ground, her voice unusually earnest.
"Dan'er, listen to your mother. Do not reveal a single word about your meeting with Madam Mu. Do you understand?"
"Mother, what do you mean by that?" Yin Danxin's heart skipped a beat.
"The Mu clan has offended the Princess and will soon be exterminated. If the Princess finds out, you..."
"what!"
Yin Dan stood up abruptly.
The True Essence Pill rolled on the bluestone brick ground.
The boy's face drained of color, and he looked on in disbelief.
"How could the Mu family possibly offend the Princess in Yuanzhou?"
Fake, must be fake.
His mother was lying to him!
However, looking at his mother's worried and frightened expression, he suddenly felt at a loss.
Yin E quickly covered his mouth: "Isn't it that maid you sent? She escaped death from the Mu family. The princess wants to stand up for her. The Mu family is as good as dead!"
Maidservant...
He suddenly remembered the little female that his family had sent over at the beginning of the month.
He stood there, stunned, his hands trembling uncontrollably.
Yin E thought he was afraid of being implicated, so she even comforted him, saying, "Don't be afraid, Dan'er, your mother will take care of you."
Yin Dan couldn't hear anything; his ears and eyes were ringing, and he couldn't hear what his mother was saying at all.
It was him! He was the one who sent the maid to the sacred mountain.
He's going to kill her, he's going to kill her...
His vision went black; severely injured and having lost too much blood, he collapsed to the ground.
"Dan'er!"
"Dan'er!"
"Witch doctor! Someone, bring the witch doctor here!"
......
Yin Dan developed a fever that night.
He was delirious with fever, which made the witch doctor extremely anxious.
Yin E paced anxiously back and forth outside. She grabbed a young slave who was carrying a wooden basin containing blood-stained clothes that had been taken off.
"How are you? Has your fever gone down?"
The little slave put down the wooden basin and prostrated himself on the ground.
"The witch doctor said that the adult was injured and had suffered a great shock, which is why he has been unconscious."
"Useless stuff."
Yin E cursed under his breath.
She, from the Bei Yin clan, was fortunate to come to the sacred mountain, entirely thanks to her eldest son's outstanding talent. In reality, she didn't care much about her younger son.
But now, with her eldest son's legs crippled and him essentially abandoned, she can only place all her hopes on her youngest son.
Fortunately, the princess took pity on him and agreed to let her youngest son take his brother's place in serving him.
But to her surprise, the little brat refused. Not only did he refuse, he also threatened her, saying that if she wanted the contract to be signed, he would just find any maid to sign the contract.
How could she not teach him a lesson?
He was so weak and easily frightened. What if the princess summoned someone to serve him?
Just as she feared, her anxiety turned around to find Ying-yu walking towards her.
"Young patriarch."
Yingyu stood tall and proud, without even curtsying.
Yin E dared not offend her.
Since she caught the eye of that princess, her status in the clan has risen higher and higher, far surpassing what it was before.
"What brings you here, Lady Consort?" she greeted him.
Yingyu gave her a cold look: "I heard Lord Yin Dan has returned?"
"Yes, I'm back, but..."
"But what?" Ying Shen frowned, her words blunt: "Young clan leader seems to have forgotten that with your status as a member of the Bei Yin clan, how could you possibly catch the eye of the princess? It was only because the young clan leader personally knelt down and begged me that I put in a good word for you in front of the princess. Otherwise, how could such a good thing have fallen into your lap?"
"Yes, yes, the lady is right to reprimand you..."
"You're really asking for it. I only helped you because of our past relationship. You were injured, but you didn't die. If the Princess asks about it, how am I supposed to explain myself?"
Yin E, who was over forty years old, turned pale and then flushed after being publicly insulted by a young female.
However, she dared not speak out against her anger.
I could only be respectful and careful, afraid of making her angry.
She took out a pill from her bosom. The pill was a little dirty, so she wiped it a few times with her sleeve before handing it over.
"This is a True Essence Pill, which has the effect of breaking through major realms. If it weren't for presenting this pill to the Princess, my young son wouldn't be seriously injured and bedridden. I hope the Princess will be more tolerant."
