Miss Qin Mengyao of the Qin family is undeniably beautiful, but she's destined not to live past twenty. Otherwise, the Qin family wouldn't have used this marriage alliance to unite with the Mu family, nor would they have chosen Mu Yun.
This matter has become quite troublesome!
"You have no choice but to agree!" The First Elder walked directly to Mu Yun, his eyes wide open, ready to attack at the slightest provocation.
"What? You think big eyes make you so great? Want to hit me?" Mu Yun suddenly turned around, nonchalantly addressing the people outside the hall, "Dean Lu, someone wants to assault a tutor from your Beiyun Academy. Aren't you going to do anything about this?"
Damn it!
Hearing this, Lu Xiaotian, standing outside the hall, cursed inwardly.
This little brat Mu Yun, he resisted so fiercely and stubbornly, but now that he couldn't take it anymore, he's resorting to using him!
In the past, Lu Xiaotian would have completely ignored such family matters. After all, Beiyun Academy was an imperial academy, and even if the forces in Beiyun City were locked in fierce battles, no one dared to offend Beiyun Academy.
But things are different now.
Mu Yun had just impressed Master Mo Wen to the point of prostration. If he didn't step forward now, he would definitely not get the better of Master Mo Wen.
"Hehe, Clan Chief Mu, Clan Chief Qin, it's been a long time!"
Hearing Mu Yun's words, Lu Xiaotian walked in from outside the hall and chuckled, "I've come uninvited today, please forgive me!"
At this moment, Mo Wen didn't speak, but just smiled slightly and followed behind Lu Xiaotian like an old servant.
Lu Xiaotian knew that Master Mo didn't like to be ostentatious, and Master Mo had only come to the Mu family to ask Mu Yun for advice. In Master Mo's eyes, a family like the Mu family was nothing, so Lu Xiaotian didn't dare to say anything more.
"Dean Lu, please come in!"
Unexpectedly, Lu Xiaotian actually came!
The First Elder's expression changed, and he hurriedly cupped his hands and led Lu Xiaotian to his seat.
Mu Linchen and Qin Shiyu also stood up and greeted him with smiles.
Lu Xiaotian is the dean of the entire Beiyun Academy. Almost all the family disciples in Beiyun City receive their education and learn martial arts there.
This academy was established by the Nanyun Empire to enhance its national strength, so Beiyun Academy is essentially under the imperial sphere of influence.
Within Beiyun City, family powers may rise and fall with each generation, but Beiyun Academy remains steadfast.
Moreover, as the dean, Lu Xiaotian wields far more power than the local family patriarchs.
Most importantly, family disciples studying at Beiyun Academy naturally treat Dean Lu with utmost respect.
"Dean Lu, I didn't expect you to come today. It's truly... I'm sorry you had to see this!" The First Elder smiled apologetically, his manner one of flattery.
"Just passing by, I only came because Instructor Mu Yun is one of my academy's instructors. It's only right that I come and visit!"
Lu Xiaotian said with a forced smile, laughing heartily.
In his heart, however, he cursed Mu Yun thoroughly.
That little brat! If it weren't for Master Mo Wen being there today, he wouldn't care whether Mu Yun lived or died!
"Dean Lu, you've come at the perfect time. That brat Mu Yun disobeyed the family's arrangements and beat up a servant. You can teach him a lesson!" The First Elder glanced at Mu Yun and said to Lu Xiaotian.
Teach him a lesson?
My god, Mu Fengyuan, you old geezer, don't cause me any more trouble!
Hearing the First Elder's words, Lu Xiaotian's heart nearly jumped out of his chest. Miss Qin Mengyao of the Qin family was undeniably beautiful, but she was destined not to live past twenty. Otherwise, the Qin family wouldn't have used this marriage alliance to unite with the Mu family, and they certainly wouldn't have chosen Mu Yun.
This matter had become even more troublesome!
"You have no choice but to agree!" The First Elder walked directly in front of Mu Yun, his eyes wide open, ready to attack at the slightest provocation.
"What? You think big eyes make you so great? You want to hit me?" Mu Yun suddenly turned around, nonchalantly addressing the people outside the hall, "Dean Lu, someone wants to beat up a tutor from your Beiyun Academy. Aren't you going to do anything about this?!"
Holy crap!
Hearing this, Lu Xiaotian, standing outside the main hall, cursed inwardly.
That little brat Mu Yun, he'd resisted so fiercely, so stubborn, but now that he couldn't hold out, he'd actually brought him out!
If it were before, Lu Xiaotian would have completely ignored such family matters. After all, Beiyun Academy was an imperial academy; even if the forces in Beiyun City were locked in fierce fighting, no one dared offend Beiyun Academy.
But now it was different.
Mu Yun had just earned Master Mo Wen's utmost respect. If he didn't step forward now, he would definitely not get the better of Master Mo Wen.
"Hehe, Clan Chief Mu, Clan Chief Qin, it's been a long time!"
Hearing Mu Yun's words, Lu Xiaotian walked in from outside the hall, chuckling, "I've come uninvited today, please forgive me!"
At this moment, Mo Wen didn't speak, only smiled slightly, following behind Lu Xiaotian like an old servant.
Lu Xiaotian knew that Master Mo disliked ostentation, and that Master Mo's visit to the Mu family was only to seek guidance from Mu Yun. In Master Mo's eyes, a family like the Mu family was nothing, so Lu Xiaotian didn't dare to offer any introductions.
"Dean Lu, please
come in !"
The First Elder's expression changed, and he hurriedly cupped his hands, leading Lu Xiaotian to his seat.
Mu Linchen and Qin Shiyu also stood up, greeting him with smiles.
Lu Xiaotian was the dean of the entire Beiyun Academy. Almost all the family disciples in Beiyun City received their education and learned martial arts at Beiyun Academy.

"Dean Lu, I didn't expect you to come today. It's truly... I'm sorry you had to see me like this!" The First Elder smiled apologetically, his manner one of flattery.
"It was just passing by. I only came because it was convenient. Instructor Mu Yun is, after all, one of my academy's instructors, so it's only right that I come and see him!"
Lu Xiaotian replied evasively with a laugh.
In his heart, however, he cursed Mu Yun thoroughly.
That little brat! If it weren't for Master Mo Wen being here today, he wouldn't have bothered with whether Mu Yun lived or died!
"Dean Lu, you've come at the perfect time! That brat Mu Yun disobeyed the family's orders and beat up a servant. You can teach him a lesson!" The First Elder glanced at Mu Yun and said to Lu Xiaotian.
