Chapter: 2051
“Brother, don’t be too nervous, Gao Chao is out of danger.” Murong Cheng comforted.
“Who? Who hurt my son like this?!” Murong Shan shouted through gritted teeth.
He is the head of the Murong family. In the entire provincial capital, he is almost inferior to one person
and superior to ten thousand people.
Which guy dares to touch his son after eating the courage of a bear and a leopard?
“It’s Lu Chen.”
Murong Cheng said without hesitation: “That kid doesn’t distinguish between superiority and inferiority.
He offended Gao Chao and severely injured Gao Chao. He simply didn’t pay attention to our Murong
family!”
“Lu Chen?”
Murong Shan’s face instantly darkened: “This damn beast! He harmed my daughter before, and now
he’s injured my son. I will cut him into pieces!”
My daughter only entered the hospital yesterday, but today my son also fell behind and was lying on
the hospital bed.
The double blow made him furious.
“Brother, please be patient. Lu Chen deserves to die, but right now, we can’t cause trouble in the city.”
Murong Cheng shook his head.
“What do you mean by this? My son and daughter were admitted to the hospital. Do you want me to
pretend that nothing happened?” Murong Shan said sternly.
“Brother, don’t get me wrong, I’m here for your own good.”
Murong Cheng said with a serious face: “Don’t forget, tomorrow is the old man’s birthday. Although
there is no need to make a big fanfare, there will definitely be a lot of guests coming and going. If you
make the matter big, our Murong family will not only be disgraced, but the old man’s Bian, it’s hard for
you to explain.”
As soon as these words came out, Murong Shan immediately frowned.
Although he wished to cut Lu Chen into pieces, at this juncture, it was really not suitable for mobilizing
the masses.
The old man’s birthday banquet is the top priority of the Murong family, and countless pairs of eyes
from the outside world are staring at it.
If today’s incident gets out, it will not only damage the dignity of the family, but also touch the old man’s
mold.
“Second brother, after talking so much, what advice do you have?” Murong Shan asked back.
“Using the power of our Murong family will inevitably scare the snake. From what I see, it’s better to ask
the Wumeng to take action.”
Murong Cheng suddenly lowered his voice and said: “Wumeng, Hidden Dragon, Crouching Tiger, there
are many masters, we only need to spend some money, and we can easily deal with that kid, why not
do it?”
“If you didn’t tell me, I would have forgotten about it.”
Murong Shan nodded suddenly: “Okay, I’ll leave this matter to you. Find a few powerful masters and kill
that boy Lu Chen!”
Why use a butcher’s knife to kill a chicken? What can be solved with money, why do it yourself?
“no problem.”
Murong Cheng hooked the corner of his mouth.
Anyway, it was Murong Shanxia’s order. If something happened, the old man couldn’t blame him.
…
The next day, morning.
There was already a lot of excitement in front of General Murong’s mansion.
Chapter: 2052
There was an endless stream of guests coming and going.
Today is Murong Zhenguo’s birthday.
Giants from all walks of life and dignitaries all came here to see it.
Although Murong Zhenguo has retreated behind the scenes, he was once a very popular minister with
power in both the government and the public.
His students and disciples are all over the world.
Looking at the whole Jiangnan, no one is dissatisfied or disrespectful.
It’s just that Murong Zhenguo has always kept a low profile and doesn’t like to waste the space, so
every birthday, he only invites some relatives and friends.
Of course, some people come uninvited.
At this moment, at the gate of the General’s Mansion.
A black car slowly stopped.
The car door opened, and Lu Chen walked down with Lao Zhang, holding a gift in his hand.
“Master Lu, you beat Murong Gaochao half to death last night, and today you are coming to celebrate
his birthday. Aren’t you afraid that the Murong family will turn against you?” Lao Zhang couldn’t help but
ask.
The General’s Mansion is heavily guarded, no less than a dragon’s pond or a tiger’s den. Once you get
in, it’s not easy to get out.
“The old general is a sensible man. I believe he should know what is right and wrong.” Lu Chen said
calmly.
One yard after another, although he beat Murong Gaochao, it did not prevent him from congratulating
Murong Zhenguo on his birthday.
“It’s best this way.” Lao Zhang looked solemn.
If Murong Zhenguo understood the truth, it would be best, but he was afraid that the other party would
feel sorry for his grandson, and it would be unreasonable at all.
At that time, they will become a trap for themselves.
“go in.”
Lu Chen didn’t talk nonsense, and after handing over the invitation, he took Lao Zhang into the
General’s Mansion.
There are not many guests who can enter the General’s Mansion, but all of them are famous big shots.
Either a senior official of the imperial court, a wealthy city, or an overlord.
Today’s seemingly ordinary banquet is actually the top class in Jiangnan.
“Um?”
As soon as Lu Chen walked into the banquet hall, he bumped into several familiar faces.
It was Murong Xue, Liu Yannan, Chu Jie and others.
The few people were talking and laughing, but after meeting Lu Chen at the door, they froze instantly.
“You…how did you come here?”
Murong Xue was stunned for a moment.
Ever since she broke up with Lu Chen last night, she had been feeling empty and almost stayed up all
night.
Chapter: 2053
Now that I suddenly saw it, I felt a little overwhelmed.
“Your surname is Lu! You have such a guts! How dare you show your face in the general’s mansion? I
think you are tired of working!” Liu Yannan jumped to her feet and cursed.
“There is a road to heaven but if you don’t take it, if there is no door to hell and you break in, no one
can save you today!” Chu Jie laughed ferociously.
where is this place?
The famous General’s Mansion!
There is a high wall guarding the outside, and there are troops stationed inside. It is known as the
copper wall and the iron wall, which is impregnable.
It is also the most heavily guarded place in the entire southern province.
This guy Lu Chen actually dared to break in. He was just like a moth flying into a flame, causing his
own destruction!
“I’m here to congratulate the old general on his birthday. I don’t want to cause trouble, so please give
way.”
Faced with clamor and threats, Lu Chen remained expressionless.
“Congratulations on your birthday? Humph! Are you worthy?”
Liu Yannan sneered mercilessly: “Who do you think you are? How do you get the qualifications to
congratulate the old general on his birthday? If it weren’t for Xue’er’s face, do you think you can walk
through the door of the general’s mansion? Stop dreaming!”
In her opinion, Lu Chen was able to sneak in because Murong Xue said hello yesterday.
“That’s right! Open your eyes and look around. Are there any of the people here to celebrate their
birthdays who are not dignitaries? Why do you, a loser who sells insurance, stand with us?” Chu Jie
looked disdainful.
Even though Lu Chen knows how to punch, he is just a reckless man.
It can’t make any big waves at all.
Murong Xue didn’t say a word, but looked at Lu Chen quietly, her face a little uncertain.
What happened last night has caused a rift in the relationship between the two.
Thinking of Murong Gaochao on the hospital bed, she was full of resentment towards Lu Chen.
“A piece of advice to you, don’t look down on people with dog eyes.”
Lu Chen said indifferently: “I can get in because I got the invitation. As for my identity and whether I am
qualified or not, it has nothing to do with you.”
“Invitation? Hum…Who knows if you stole it or robbed it? What can’t you do for a social scum like
you?” Liu Yannan’s face was full of contempt.
“Lu Chen, stop putting gold on your face. We all know who you are. You are not qualified to curry favor
with the old general!” Chu Jie said arrogantly.
“Are you two tired of chattering?”
Lu Chen became a little impatient: “Am I familiar with you? What I want to do is none of your business?
If you dare to speak rudely again, don’t blame me for not having eyes!”
As he spoke, his cold and piercing eyes directly pressed on the two of them.
In the past, for Murong Xue’s sake, he ignored these two clowns.
Now that they have broken up, there is no need for him to give face.
“You…you are presumptuous!”
Lu Chen’s sudden irritability made Liu Yannan stunned for a moment.
Chapter: 2054
No matter how much she teased Lu Chen in the past, the other party was always silent, as if he didn’t
hear her.
At first, she thought Lu Chen didn’t dare to speak back, but what she said just now and the fierce look
in his eyes made her suddenly understand that the other party was not a weak and deceitful person.
Murong Gaochao is the best example.
If Chase Lu goes crazy and beats her up regardless, there is really nothing she can do.
“Lu! I’m warning you not to be too arrogant! This is the General’s Mansion, do you still dare to take
action?!” Chu Jie shouted sternly.
“That’s right! I don’t believe you dare to behave wildly here!” Liu Yannan quickly reacted.
The General’s Mansion was heavily guarded, and even if Lu Chen had great courage, he would not
dare to openly cause trouble.
Thinking of this, she became confident and confident again.
“Why, do you think your life is more precious than Murong Gaochao?”
With a cold face, Lu Chen began to approach slowly.
The murderous look made several people’s expressions change in fright, and they quickly took a few
steps back.
“stop!”
Murong Xue suddenly stood in front and said angrily: “Lu Chen! You injured my cousin, are you going
to hurt my friend now? I will never allow you to do this!”
She didn’t expect Lu Chen to be so unreasonable, and he would hurt people if he disagreed with him.
Fortunately, she thought the other person was a good person before, but now she realizes that she was
wrong about the person.
Treat a wicked person as a good person.
For a moment, she became even more disgusted with Lu Chen.
“Miss Murong, it’s just a joke, don’t be so nervous, as long as they don’t take the initiative to provoke
me, I won’t do anything to them.” Lu Chen said lightly.
“Hmph! Did you look like you were joking just now? If Xue’er hadn’t stopped you, you might have
already done something wrong!” Liu Yannan was a little bit aggrieved.
“Lu Chen! Don’t think that if you have some skills, you can be tyrannical here. The General’s Mansion
is not a place for you to act wild!” Chu Jie said with a sullen face.
“If people don’t attack me, I won’t attack; if people attack me, I will attack. This is my advice to you, and
now I give it to you for free.” Lu Chen remained expressionless.
“Xue’er! This guy is so crazy. If you ask me, just kick him out, otherwise the trouble will be endless!” Liu
Yannan started to fan the flames again.
“You’re right! A rat droppings can spoil a pot of soup. Today is the birthday of the old general. There are
many distinguished guests here, and everyone is paying attention. If this guy makes trouble, the entire
Murong family will be disgraced!” Chu Jie agreed.
“Xue’er, the overall situation is the most important thing. Blasting this guy out is the best choice.” The
other people also followed suit.
“Lu Chen! You are not welcome here, please go out!”
Murong Xue gritted her teeth and finally issued the eviction order.
My friends are right, if the other party hurts someone here, the entire birthday party will be ruined.
“Drive me away?”
Lu Chen was slightly startled, and then smiled self-deprecatingly: “Miss Murong, they are guests, and I
am also a guest. If they say something casually, you will kick me out, is that appropriate?”
He used to treat Murong Xue as his younger sister, even if he was misunderstood, he did not have the
slightest resentment.
Chapter: 2055
In his opinion, even if the two parties cannot be good friends, they should at least treat each other
politely, right?
But now, he realized that he was wrong.
Once people have prejudices, they will continue to be paranoid, and finally turn against each other.
Murong Xue’s current behavior profoundly explains this point.
He tried to rescue him many times, but in the end he only got one sentence from the other party:
Please get out.
“I didn’t invite you in, and you are not a guest of our Murong family, I have the right to let you out!”
Murong Xue said with a stubborn face.
“Miss Murong, you didn’t invite me, but your grandfather invited me. If you want to drive me out, you
have to ask your grandfather first if he agrees?” Lu Chen said calmly.
“You-” Murong Xue was a little angry.
She didn’t expect that the other party was so thick-skinned and refused to leave even after being
ordered to evict him.
He even moved his grandfather to suppress him.
“Xue’er, don’t listen to this guy’s nonsense. How could he know the old general? He’s obviously playing
rogue!” Liu Yannan continued to add fuel to the fire.
“Xue’er, don’t talk nonsense to him, just ask someone to kick him out!” Chu Jie said simply and rudely.
“Lu Chen! If you don’t leave, don’t blame me for calling someone!”
Murong Xue took a deep breath and her eyes became sharp.
“Murong Xue! Don’t go too far!”
At this time, Lao Zhang couldn’t bear it anymore, and said angrily: “My Lord Lu has saved you many
times. It’s fine if you are not grateful, but now you want to repay your kindness with revenge. Are you
Murong family members all ungrateful? Seniors?!”
“I……”
As soon as these words came out, Murong Xue was instantly speechless.
“Xue’er! They are confusing right and wrong!”
Seeing that the situation was not going well, Liu Yannan started to stir up trouble again: “Saving you
from fire and water, repaying kindness with enmity, they are all bullshit!
From the very beginning when Lu Chen approached you, he had evil intentions. In order to win your
favor, he made various plans and calculations.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHis actions, all his kindness, are all fake, you must not be deceived! ”
“You’re right! This guy has ulterior motives and is not a good guy. You must be vigilant at all times!” Chu
Jie said with narrowed eyes.
Listening to the words of the few people, Murong Xue’s sense of guilt that just arose disappeared in an
instant.
Yes, Lu Chen saved her and helped her, all of which were purposeful behaviors, and it was not a
kindness at all.
If she hadn’t exposed the other party’s true face last night, she would have been kept in the dark until
now.
In the end, it was Lu Chen who deceived her, and she didn’t need to feel guilty, grateful, or soft-
hearted.
Thinking of this, Murong Xue took a deep breath, looked directly at Lu Chen again, and became very
determined: “Lu Chen! I don’t want to see you again, please get out!”
“you……”
Lao Zhang was about to explode, but Lu Chen raised his hand to stop him, with deep disappointment
and indifference in his eyes: “Miss Murong, it seems that you really hate me. If this is the case, then I
won’t be an eyesore here. Let me go.” .”
Chapter: 2056
After the words fell, he turned around and walked out the door.
Murong Xue was determined to kick him out, so there was no point in him staying here shamelessly.
As for congratulating the old general on his birthday, that’s all that matters, there’s no need to force it.
“Huh! You should have gotten out! What a bad luck!” Liu Yannan looked disgusted.
“Immediately inform Patriarch Murong, and arrest Lu Chen immediately after he leaves the house!”
Chu Jie was even more ruthless and immediately ordered the people around him to complain.
Although the banquet can’t be disturbed, it doesn’t mean that Lu Chen should be let go.
For beating up the eldest son of the Murong family, he would naturally have to pay the corresponding
price.
“The old general is here!”
Just as Lu Chen walked out of the banquet hall, a shout suddenly sounded.
Immediately afterwards, under the stars and the moon.
Murong Zhenguo, with a head full of white hair and a burly figure, walked over with a group of people
with their heads held high.
Wherever he passed, guests greeted him respectfully.
No movement or words are needed, just standing there carries an invisible majesty.
Instilling awe.
“Meet the old general!”
The appearance of Murong Zhenguo caused a group of people to come out of the hall to greet him,
showing enough respect.
No matter it is a high-ranking official or a giant.
In front of a big man like Murong Zhenguo, everyone had to bow down and behave themselves.
Liu Yannan and the others, who had made all sorts of noises before, were now as silent as a cicada,
not even daring to take a breath.
Only Murong Xue walked forward happily and took Murong Zhenguo’s arm.
In the eyes of others, the great general who looks like a dragon and swallows his eyes, looks like a
wolf, but in her eyes, he is just a kind old man.
“You don’t need to be too polite, just go in and sit down.”
Murong Zhenguo smiled.
Although it didn’t show any majesty, it gave people a lot of pressure.
Including Murong Shan who became the head of the family behind him, and Murong Cheng and many
other direct descendants, all of them looked downcast and pleasing to the eye.
In the end, under Murong Zhenguo’s greeting, everyone took their seats in the hall one after another.
When Lu Chen was about to leave, he was caught by Murong Zhenguo’s gaze, and he said, “Little guy,
where are you going?”
As soon as these words came out, everyone’s eyes were focused on Lu Chen.
“Lu Chen!”
Chapter: 2057
Murong Shan took a closer look, and his complexion instantly became gloomy.
“This kid, is he courting death?”
Murong Cheng squinted his eyes with a very unkind expression.
“Interesting… so interesting.”
In the crowd, Watanabe Tenaki showed a playful look.
After what happened last night, normally speaking, Lu Chen should run for his life and hide
everywhere.
However, no one expected that this kid actually came to the door.
What audacity!
“Haha… This guy is dead. He was actually targeted by the old general. He will run away today even if
he wants to!” Chu Jie laughed ferociously.
“It deserves it! If you get out early, you’ll be fine? If you have to be an eyesore here, you’re going to kill
yourself!” Liu Yannan curled the corners of her mouth, gloating.
In their opinion, the old general must have known about the beating of his grandson, so he wanted to
take revenge publicly.
“Old general, my heart has been delivered, I still have something to do, so I’ll go back first.”
Lu Chen cupped his fists and decisively chose to leave.
“stop!”
Seeing this scene, Chu Jie suddenly jumped out, blocked the front, and shouted: “Boy! You come and
leave as soon as you say, what place do you think the General’s Mansion is?!”
While talking, he also took a sneak glance at Murong Zhenguo.
Naturally, such a good opportunity to perform like this cannot be missed. If he can show his face in
front of the old general, he might be reused in the future.
It not only suppressed Lu Chen, but also pleased the old general. It was the best of both worlds.
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but admire his wit and ability to observe words and emotions.
It’s absolutely amazing.
“Um?”
Chu Jie suddenly jumped out, making Murong Zhenguo slightly stunned.
Where did this kid come from?
What are you going to do?
“You asked me to go before, but now you want me to stay. What do you mean?” Lu Chen was
expressionless.
“Hmph! Stop talking nonsense!”
Chu Jie said with a fierce look on his face: “You have offended the old general and disturbed
everyone’s interest. Now you want to leave? It’s just a dream!”
“That’s right! You sneaked into the general’s mansion to plot wrongdoing and harbor evil intentions.
Everyone will punish you! Fortunately, the old general has sharp eyes and has seen your true face.
Today, you have nowhere to hide!” Liu Yannan shouted righteously.
While giving Lu Chen a thumbs up, he also didn’t forget to take a few photos of Murong Zhenguo’s
horses.
This round of holding high and stepping low is really a perfect game.
Chapter: 2058
“Hey, what are you two doing?”
Murong Zhenguo frowned slightly, a little displeased.
Where are these two idiots coming from? Why can’t you tell the difference between the southeast and
the north?
“Old general, you don’t need to take action to deal with this kind of thing yourself. Just leave it to us
juniors. I promise to take care of him!”
Chu Jie didn’t realize the seriousness of the problem at all, and just wanted to take credit for himself.
“Yes, old general, today is your birthday. It’s not appropriate to get angry. We will solve it for you.”
Liu Yannan was unwilling to lag behind, fearing that all the credit would be taken away.
Why not be able to please the old general and at the same time make a splash?
“Come here! Arrest this evil-doer and interrogate him severely!”
Chu Jie was high-spirited, and waved directly at the guards of Murong’s family, as if he was the master.
“presumptuous!”
Murong Zhenguo immediately stood up and stepped forward angrily, giving Chu Jie and Liu Yannan a
slap in the face.
Cursed: “Blind your dog eyes! This is a distinguished guest of the Murong family, who gave you the
courage to disrespect my distinguished guest?!”
“ah?”
The sudden slap directly stunned Chu Jie and Liu Yannan.
The two covered their faces, a little at a loss.
Isn’t it Lu Chen who is causing trouble? Why are you beating us all the time?
At this moment, everyone in the Murong family, and even all the guests, looked shocked.
No one expected that the old general, who had always been displeased, would openly beat someone,
and on the day of his birthday party.
“Old… old general, did you admit the wrong person? This guy is a criminal, he should be arrested and
watched over, so as not to cause harm to the world.” Chu Jie also tried to explain.
“Yes, old general, this guy injured Mr. Murong last night. He committed a heinous crime and must be
severely punished!” Liu Yannan agreed.
She thought that Murong Zhenguo didn’t know the truth, that’s why she tried to stop him.
“Shut up!”
Murong Zhenguo glared, and a powerful coercion radiated out: “Lu Chen saved my granddaughter’s
life. He is the benefactor of the Murong family and also my distinguished guest. If you dare to talk
nonsense again, don’t blame me for throwing you out.” !”
As soon as these words came out, Chu Jie and Liu Yannan were as quiet as ice and panicked.
If they are really kicked out of the General’s Mansion, not only will they suffer, but their family will also
be implicated, or even banned.
After all, no one would want to take the risk of offending the old general by continuing to associate with
their family.
“grandfather……”
Murong Xue couldn’t stand it anymore. When she stood up and wanted to say something, she was
interrupted by Murong Shan: “Dad, today is a good day for you to celebrate your birthday. Don’t get
angry easily. Let’s calm down the anger first.”
The reason why I stopped my daughter is that at this time, right or wrong is not important at all.
Chapter: 2059
The old man has spoken, so no matter what the reason is, the Murong family must fully support it
without any violation.
Especially in front of so many guests, the old man’s authority cannot be challenged.
“snort!”
Murong Zhenguo glanced at the two of them coldly, then turned to Lu Chen and said domineeringly:
“Little guy, let’s go and take a seat. Who dares to have any objection today?”
With that said, he grabbed Lu Chen’s hand and placed him directly at the VIP table.
Here, there are either the core members of the Murong family or family friends.
A plainly dressed young man like Lu Chen sat inside, looking a little out of place.
It’s just that when the old general spoke, no one dared to say anything more, instead they had to greet
him with a friendly face and a smiling face.
Although Lu Chen is not a big character, the old general’s face is precious, even if a pile of shit is
placed on the table, they have to hold on to eat it.
“This guy is so abominable. He is using Xue’er’s name to dominate here and deceive the old general’s
sympathy. It is simply despicable!”
Looking at Lu Chen sitting on the VIP seat, Liu Yannan gritted her teeth, feeling a little aggrieved.
As a disciple of a famous family, she is not qualified to sit at the VIP table. Why can a poor loser who
sells insurance sit at the same table as those big shots?
“Huh! It’s just temporary glory. When the old general figures out the truth, he will definitely punish Lu
Chen severely to set the record straight!”
Chu Jie touched the hot face, his eyes were very fierce.
Facing the old general, he naturally lost his temper, so all the resentment he felt from being beaten was
transferred to Lu Chen.
“Stinky boy, sooner or later I will kill you.”
Murong Shan muttered to himself with a gloomy face.
I thought that Chu Jie and the two could handle Lu Chen, but I didn’t expect the old man to show up.
Even if he was extremely dissatisfied, he didn’t dare to show it.
After a small episode, the scene returned to calm again.
More and more guests walked into the banquet hall with gifts, and began to congratulate Murong
Zhenguo on his birthday.
The atmosphere at the scene quickly became lively.
“The general of Jinzhou came to visit, wishing the old general good luck like the East China Sea, and a
longer life than Nanshan!”
“Li Chengshou of Jin City came to visit, wishing the old general Longma spirit and good health!”
“The chairman of Hedong Group came to visit and wished the veteran general all the best and good
luck every year!”
“…”
Following the shouts of the servants, well-dressed big shots came in one after another.
There are general soldiers who hold great power, there are city leaders who are in charge of a city,
there are also wealthy people who are the richest, and there are all-powerful giants from all walks of
life.
These people came here especially, and the gifts they gave were all kinds of rare treasures.
“Thank you all for coming to support us. Come on, please take a seat.”
Chapter: 2060
As the head of the family, Murong Shan took the initiative to stand up and began to greet the guests.
As for Murong Zhenguo, he responded to everyone’s congratulations with a smile.
“Third Master is here!”
At this time, there was another loud shout.
Everyone looked sideways and looked towards the door in unison.
I saw a middle-aged man dressed in white, with a handsome appearance, walking in slowly.
Behind him, there were two cloaked men whose faces could not be seen clearly.
“Hey, isn’t this the youngest son of the old general, Murong Hai?”
“I heard that Murong Hai had a conflict with his family, and he hasn’t heard from him for many years. I
didn’t expect to come back today.”
“As a son, it is only natural that he come back to celebrate his father’s birthday.”
Looking at the man in white who walked in, everyone couldn’t help whispering.
Murong Zhenguo had three sons, namely Murong Shan, the eldest son, Murong Cheng, the second
son, and Murong Hai, the third son.
Among the three sons, the most outstanding is Murong Hai, who is courageous and resourceful. He
was highly regarded by Zeng Jin and was even appointed as the heir of the family.
Later, for unknown reasons, Murong Hai gave up his power, ran away from home, and disappeared for
five years.
It wasn’t until today that he finally showed up.
“Third brother?”
After seeing the person coming, Murong Shan couldn’t help but look happy, and hurried up to greet
him: “Third Brother, after a long absence, you are finally back!”
After saying that, he gave Murong Hai a big hug.
“Brother, long time no see. How have you been all these years?” Murong Hai smiled slightly.
“Okay…so good!”
Murong Shan patted his shoulder and said with a smile, “I haven’t seen you for a few years, and you’ve
grown stronger. It’s really good!”
“Third brother, since you’re back, why didn’t you notify me in advance?” Murong Cheng also walked
over with a smile.
“Second brother, I have just arrived. I want to give you a surprise. You won’t blame me, right?” Murong
Hai joked.
“It’s too late for me to be happy that you’re back. How can I blame you? As the saying goes, brothers
working together can break gold. With your joining, we three brothers can create glory together in the
future!” Murong Cheng said with a smile.
“Okay, don’t talk about that yet.”
Murong Shan interrupted his words, then pulled Murong Hai, walked up to Murong Zhenguo, and said
with a smile: “Dad, look who is back?”
“Dad, I’m here to celebrate your birthday.”
Murong Hai held the gift in both hands, and handed it over respectfully.
Murong Zhenguo didn’t reach out to pick it up, but snorted coldly: “I’ve already run away from home,
you still have the face to come back now?”
The cold words made the smiles of Murong Shan and Murong Cheng froze instantly.
Chapter: 2061
In their eyes, the third brother is the most favored and most important person in the family.
Now that we meet again after a long absence, shouldn’t a father be happy?
Why are you still keeping a straight face?
It’s been five years, is there any misunderstanding between father and son that cannot be solved?
“Dad, I used to be ignorant and confused. I’m here to apologize to you.”
Murong Hai said and bowed deeply: “I have thought clearly over the years. It is indeed my fault. I hope
you will be magnanimous and forgive me this time.”
“Um?”
Murong Zhenguo raised his eyebrows, looking quite surprised.
My youngest son has always been stubborn, and often breaks through the south wall without looking
back.
I didn’t expect to know how to apologize after not seeing you for a few years?
It seems that he has matured a lot.
“Dad, the past is over, the third brother has already realized his mistake, so please forgive him.”
Murong Shan began to smooth things over.
“Yes, Dad, what happened back then was all a misunderstanding. Our family is harmonious and there
is no obstacle we can’t get over.” Murong Cheng echoed.
Seeing Murong Hai’s submissive look, Murong Zhenguo’s expression finally softened. He waved his
hands and said, “Okay, I hope you can come back safely. Please take a seat first.”
“Thank you, Dad.”
Murong Hai bowed again.
“Third brother, come, sit here.”
Murong Shan was very enthusiastic and pulled Murong Hai to sit on the upper seat.
He has always valued his youngest brother very highly.
Now that we are reunited after a long separation, we are naturally very happy.
The key members of Murong’s family also greeted each other with smiles and greeted them attentively.
Everyone knew that Murong Zhenguo had always had a problem, which was when Murong Hai ran
away from home.
So much so that in the past five years, no one dared to mention the word Murong Hai in front of
Murong Zhenguo.
Now that Murong Hai has returned, and has taken the initiative to admit his mistakes and ask Murong
Zhenguo for forgiveness, the misunderstanding from that year has been completely resolved.
I believe that from now on, the Murong family will be even more glorious.
As time went by, many dignitaries came to celebrate their birthdays.
Everyone who comes to the door is accompanied by two bodyguards.
Of course, bodyguards are not qualified to sit, they can only stand against the wall and lined up in two
rows.
Lu Chen glanced left and right, and found that these bodyguards were all of good strength, and they
still carried a murderous aura.
He had obviously been on the battlefield.
Chapter: 2062
When all the guests arrived, Murong Shan stood up first and said loudly: “First of all, welcome to my
father’s birthday banquet.
My father always told me not to make a big show of things and to keep a low profile as much as
possible.
However, it is hard to refuse your kindness and you have come all the way here. Here, I would like to
express my gratitude on behalf of my father.
Come, let me toast you all first. ”
As he said that, Murong Shan poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it down in one gulp.
The guests were very considerate and immediately toasted in return.
“Next, please ask the longevity star to say a few words.”
Murong Shan turned his eyes and brought the topic to Murong Zhenguo.
The next second, there was thunderous applause in the hall.
“I……”
Just as Murong Zhenguo was about to stand up, Murong Hai suddenly stood up and said with a smile:
“Before that, can you let me say a few words?”
Murong Shan was a little surprised. He glanced at his father, and after the other party nodded, he
agreed: “Third Brother, if you have anything to say, just say it, we are all a family, so don’t be
restrained.”
“Father, for today’s birthday banquet, I carefully prepared a gift, I hope you will like it.”
Murong Hai smiled slightly, and at the same time handed over the gift box respectfully.
“That’s right, you really know a lot.”
Murong Zhenguo nodded in satisfaction, and took the opportunity to take it: “The prodigal son will not
change his money when he turns back. I am very relieved that you can make such a change.”
After saying that, he opened the gift box and his smile froze instantly.
Because inside the gift box, there are no valuable items, and nothing to show your heart, only a white
silk.
“Is this the gift you prepared?”
Murong Zhenguo frowned slightly, his eyes were somewhat puzzled.
“What? Father, don’t you like it?”
Murong Haimian did not change his expression and was always respectful and humble.
“like?”
Murong Zhenguo’s expression darkened, he threw the gift box to the ground and shouted, “Open your
eyes and see what you have given me!”
“Bang!”
There was a crisp sound.
The gift box broke open, revealing Bai Ling inside.
Seeing this scene, everyone was taken aback.
“What’s going on? What’s the purpose of giving a white cloth to the birthday party?”
“That’s not a white cloth, but a white silk for hanging!”
Chapter: 2063
“What? Bai Ling? No way? Who will give this away properly?”
“It’s no wonder the old general is angry, and no one can stand it. What the hell is Murong Hai doing?”
“…”
Everyone was whispering, some not knowing why.
The hot atmosphere just now cooled down quickly.
“Third brother, why did you give this thing? Could it be that you took it by mistake?” Murong Shan
frowned.
“Third brother! Take the quick stuff back, don’t let others laugh at you!” Murong Cheng shouted.
On the day of the birthday banquet, giving such an unlucky thing is not a deliberate attempt to cause
misfortune?
“It seems that Father is not satisfied with my gift.”
Ignoring the strange looks from the people around him, Murong Hai carefully picked up the white silk,
patted the dust on it, and said with a smile: “This white silk was once used by my wife, and I kept it for
five years. Just to give it to you, father, one day…”
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
Especially the Murong family disciples, their expressions changed drastically and their hair stood on
end.
That incident back then had almost become a taboo, and no one dared to mention it.
They originally thought that Murong Hai returned today to change his mind and reunite with his family,
but no one expected that the other party would bring up old matters again.
“Third brother! What nonsense are you talking about? Why are you bringing this up?”
Murong Shan scolded angrily, and at the same time pleaded with Murong Zhenguo: “Dad, the third
brother is probably drunk. You must not be the same as him.”
“If I don’t tell you, what happened back then didn’t happen?”
Murong Hai continued to smile and said: “Father, I don’t know if you still remember, it was you who
forced my wife to death, it was you who caused her to hang herself, and she was separated from me
forever.”
“So, today you are not here to celebrate your birthday, but to raise a question?”
Murong Zhenguo’s face looked a little uncertain.
“I just want to seek justice for my deceased wife.”
Murong Hai’s smile slowly faded: “Father, if you repent and admit your mistakes for your actions back
then, I can consider forgiving you.”
“Murong Hai! You are so presumptuous!”
Murong Shan finally couldn’t bear it any longer, slapped Murong Hai on the face abruptly, and cursed:
“Today is Dad’s birthday party, I won’t allow you to behave wildly here, I order you to apologize to Dad
immediately!”
“Apologize?”
Murong Hai smiled, gently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said calmly: “Murong
Zhenguo harmed my wife, ruined my life, and pushed me into eternal hell. You actually want me to
apologize? Is it appropriate?”
“Dad didn’t do anything wrong back then, it’s your own fault, don’t be obsessed with it anymore, just
kneel down and admit your mistake!” Murong Shan was a little anxious.
If it continues like this, it will definitely not end in the end.
“Brother, you are still the same, always submissive, Murong Zhenguo glared, and you were so
frightened that you fell silent. You are really hopeless.” Murong Hai shook his head.
“You…you are so stubborn! I must teach you a lesson today!”
Chapter: 2064
Murong Shan was filled with indignation and raised his hand to strike.
As a result, Murong Hai suddenly took out a knife and stabbed Murong Shan into the chest.
“puff!”
A sound of flesh tearing sounded.
Murong Hai’s knife directly pierced Murong Shan’s chest without any warning.
Blood dripped to the ground along the tip of the knife.
“Well……”
Murong Shan was stunned, looking down at the knife pierced into his chest, his face full of disbelief.
He never dreamed that his third brother, whom he valued very much and his closest blood relative,
would suddenly attack him.
And still so decisive, so ruthless.
At this moment, everyone was dumbfounded.
Who would have imagined that Murong Hai, who was still gentle and smiling just now, would suddenly
kill him, even his own elder brother would not be spared.
If it could be explained by drinking and making trouble before, then the situation is completely different
now.
“You… how dare you…”
Murong Shan’s eyes widened, and when he was about to say something, blood gushed out of his
mouth.
Finally, his body swayed and collapsed to the ground.
“Brother, don’t be too nervous. My knife was just an inch away from your heart. It won’t kill you for the
time being. Just lie down and stay out of the way.” Murong Hai said calmly.
While speaking, he took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood on his fingertips.
He looked so calm, as if he was just doing something trivial.
“Beast! You are so brave!”
Seeing this scene, Murong Zhenguo couldn’t help but became furious: “Your eldest brother is kindly
trying to persuade you, but you dare to hurt someone? You are absolutely crazy! Come on! Catch this
traitor!”
“yes!”
Following his order, a group of armed soldiers immediately swarmed in.
Murong Hai was not afraid at all, just threw the handkerchief on the ground.
In the next second, two rows of bodyguards standing against the wall shot almost simultaneously.
Like a fierce tiger, it suddenly pounced.
These bodyguards are powerful, extremely fast, and have premeditated plans to crush them as soon
as they appear.
The armed soldiers who had just entered the door were knocked down one after another before they
could react, with no room for resistance at all.
The scene was instantly reversed.
“Um?”
Chapter: 2065
The sudden change made Murong Zhenguo frown deeply.
Unexpectedly, there were so many assassins sneaking into the banquet hall.
In other words, some of the guests present have been bribed.
“Murong Hai! Do you know what you are doing? You are rebelling!”
Murong Cheng stared, furious.
“Second brother, you taught me that the weak will eat the strong. If you are really strong, what about
rebellion?”
Murong Hai’s expression remained calm.
“You are playing with fire and burning yourself!”
Murong Cheng said sternly: “I’m warning you, put down your weapons immediately and lead everyone
to surrender, otherwise you will regret it!”
Where is the general’s mansion?
Could it be that he can act wild in just a few hours?
“Murong Hai! If you make a mistake, you will be hated forever. If you dare to cause trouble in the
general’s mansion, are you willing to die?”
“While there is still room for change, rein in the situation immediately and surrender, otherwise you will
be responsible for the consequences!”
“Confused! So confused!”
Everyone in Murong’s family reprimanded angrily, and hated that iron could not be made into steel.
The family that used to be harmonious, now they are fighting each other with swords and swords. You
are fighting to the death, what’s the matter?
“Please see clearly, I am in control of the situation now, and I have the final say in everything.” Murong
Hai said calmly.
“Hmph! Do you think these people alone can control the entire General’s Mansion? It’s just a dream!”
As Murong Cheng spoke, he suddenly raised his voice and shouted: “Come here! Arrest all these
intruders!”
The General’s Mansion has an armed force of thousands of people, which can easily suppress the
entire audience.
This is also the reason why no one dares to act wild in the General’s Mansion.
“Where are people? Where are they going? Come and help!”
After shouting, there was no response outside, and Murong Cheng increased the volume again.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Second brother, there’s no need to shout. My men have already infiltrated into the general’s mansion,
and all of your escorts have fallen.” Murong Hai smiled slightly.
“How is it possible? You are lying!”
Murong Cheng’s pupils shrank in disbelief.
How could an army of a thousand people, all well-trained, be defeated so easily?
“After five years of planning, if I can’t even do this little thing, I won’t be visiting today.” Murong Hai said
lightly.
“It turns out you were prepared.”
Murong Cheng’s face darkened, his eyes swept over them one by one, and he said coldly: “Murong
Hai, I have to admit that you are indeed brave and resourceful, but you made a miscalculation.”
Chapter: 2066
“What’s going on?” Murong Hai was a little curious.
“You ignored me!”
Murong Cheng slowly took off his coat, and inside his underwear was a body of strong and firm
muscles: “I have practiced hard since I was a child, and my martial arts achievements have already
reached the pinnacle, and now I am a half-step master. These subordinates of yours are not enough in
front of me.” look!”
“Half-step Grandmaster?”
As soon as these words came out, the scene became agitated.
The Dragon Kingdom is proficient in martial arts, and it is extremely difficult to become an innate
master.
And to reach the half-step master state, it requires extremely strong talent and hard work.
Because at this level, you are an enemy of thousands of people on the battlefield!
“Murong Hai! If you repent now, you still have a chance, but if you are stubborn, don’t blame me for
being rude!”
Murong Cheng stomped his footsteps, only to hear a “bang”, and a hole was abruptly stepped on the
ground.
A powerful air wave erupted instantly.
Several of Murong Hai’s subordinates were so shocked that they vomited blood and flew backwards
before they could react, and were seriously injured and on the verge of death.
When the rest of the people saw it, their faces changed drastically, and they backed away again and
again in fright, panicking.
A half-step master-level expert, killing people is like picking something out of a bag.
How can they stop it?
“Xue’er, I didn’t expect your father to be so strong. It seems that Murong Hai won’t be able to make any
big waves today.” Liu Yannan was both surprised and delighted.
Just now, I thought that a catastrophe was imminent, but fortunately, Murong Cheng stepped forward to
turn the tide.
“It turns out that Uncle Cheng is a hidden master. I didn’t realize it before.” Chu Jie looked admiring.
Half a step into the grandmaster realm is enough to establish a sect in the arena and become a master
in the world.
“My dad is so powerful?” Murong Xue was a little surprised.
To be honest, she had never seen her father do anything.
“Pah, pah, pah…”
Murong Hai smiled and clapped his hands: “Second brother, I never expected that you have such a
cultivation base after a few years, I admire you!”
“Since you know how powerful you are, why don’t you just capture him without hesitation?” Murong
Cheng shouted.
“Second brother, your martial arts talent is good, but unfortunately you are still a bit short. You are not
qualified enough to block me.” Murong Hai said flatly.
“Arrogance!”
Murong Cheng was instantly angry: “I want to see how capable you are today!”
After the words fell, his footsteps were a little bit abrupt, and the whole person rushed forward.
At this moment, behind Murong Hai, a black-robed man who couldn’t see his face suddenly moved.
His figure flickered, blocking the front, and then struck Murong Cheng with a palm.
Chapter: 2067
“court death!”
Murong Cheng was not afraid at all, and punched him with a bang.
“boom!”
Fist and palm collided, the black-robed man remained motionless, and his robe fluttered.
On the other hand, Murong Cheng was like a shell fired from its chamber, bounced off in an instant,
and hit the wall heavily.
Vomiting blood will not stop.
“What?!”
Seeing this scene, everyone looked shocked.
Isn’t Murong Cheng a half-step master-level expert?
Shouldn’t it sweep the entire field?
Why did he get beaten up and vomited blood just after meeting him?
“Brother Cheng!”
“dad!”
Dong Yulan and Murong Xue were startled, and quickly ran forward and helped Murong Cheng up.
“Cough cough cough…”
Murong Cheng’s body trembled and he coughed up several mouthfuls of blood.
At this moment, his face was full of shock and horror.
Since practicing the Soul-Eating Technique, he has become very confident in his own strength. He is
not invincible, but he can dominate one area.
Why? Why was it suppressed just as I was about to show my skills today?
Is he too weak, or is the enemy too strong?
“You…who the hell are you?!”
Murong Cheng gritted his teeth, a little unwilling.
“Tianzhu Kingdom, Rakshasa.”
The man in black slowly lifted his cloak, revealing a foreign face.
His cheeks were thin and his eye sockets were sunken, giving him a cold feeling.
“What? Rakshasa? Isn’t that the martial arts master of Tianzhu Kingdom? Why is he here?”
“It seems that Murong Hai has spent a lot of money! He actually invited a strong master from Tianzhu
Kingdom. No wonder Murong Cheng is no match.”
“It’s broken! The armed forces of the General’s Palace cannot be used, and now Murong City has been
defeated again. Is today a catastrophe for the General’s Palace?”
“…”
After learning the identity of Luo Sha, the audience was in an uproar.
Chapter: 2068
Martial arts master level powerhouse, that is the enemy of ten thousand people, and now suddenly
descending, it is almost unstoppable.
It seems that the General’s Mansion is in big trouble.
“Raksha?”
Murong Cheng’s complexion changed, and he was very apprehensive: “Murong Hai, I didn’t expect that
you had planned a long time ago, and even traveled thousands of miles to invite people from Tianzhu
Kingdom. You are really driving the General’s Mansion to a dead end!”
“Second brother, if I didn’t have my trump card, I wouldn’t be so blatant.” Murong Hai had a faint smile
on his lips.
After so many years of preparation, everything that should be calculated has already been calculated.
“Murong Hai, I admit that you are indeed the best among our three brothers, but unfortunately, you still
underestimated the foundation of the General’s Mansion.”
“Do you think that just a martial arts master can sweep through the general’s mansion? If so, I can only
say that you are too naive!”
“Today, I will let you see the real trump card of the General’s Mansion!”
Murong Cheng suddenly took a deep breath, then mobilized all his energy and shouted: “The General’s
Mansion is in crisis! Please come out, ancestor!”
Its sound was like a thunderous explosion.
The shock made the wine on the table rippling, and the shock made everyone’s ears roar.
After the shouting, some backbone members of the Murong family cheered up immediately.
Few people know that there is a top expert hidden in the General’s Mansion.
This person is respectfully called “Ancestor”.
If the thousand-man armed force is the official force of the General’s Mansion, then the ancestor is the
General’s Mansion’s biggest trump card.
Many years ago, the ancestor had already become a martial arts master.
Although he seldom shows up, his strength is definitely the top existence in Jiangnan.
It’s just that the ancestor practiced in seclusion all the year round, and never asked about the affairs of
the general’s mansion. On weekdays, no one dared to disturb him.
However, now, the general’s mansion is at a critical moment, and the ancestors have to be invited to
suppress the audience.
I believe that as long as the ancestor comes forward, the Rakshasa of Tianzhu Kingdom will not be
worth mentioning at all.
“Murong Hai! It’s too late to stop now. Once our ancestor comes out of seclusion, your life may be at
risk!”
“That’s right! If you rein in the precipice in time, there is still a glimmer of life, otherwise a hundred
deaths will not redeem you!”
Everyone in Murong’s family scolded and tried to persuade Murong Hai to surrender.
Although Rakshasa is powerful, he is still far behind compared to his ancestor.
“Old Ancestor? Hehe… He has heard about his name for a long time, but unfortunately, he can’t help
you.” Murong Hai’s face remained unchanged.
“Please come out, ancestor!”
After waiting for a long time without any response, Murong Cheng raised his volume again and shouted
towards the back mountain.
“Second brother, there’s no need to shout, the ancestor is here.”
Murong Hai took out a cardboard box out of nowhere, and threw it on the ground casually.
Chapter: 2069
The cardboard box popped open, and a bloody human head rolled out of it.
It was an old man with white hair, his face was haggard, his eyes were wide open, and his face was full
of shock and unwillingness.
“Old… Ancestor?!”
Seeing this scene, Murong Cheng was so frightened that he took a few steps back with a look of horror
on his face.
The rest of the people also looked like they had seen a ghost, their livers were torn apart with fright,
and their souls flew out of the sky.
“How, how is it possible? The ancestor is dead?!”
“The ancestor is a powerful martial arts master, how could he die so suddenly? What happened?”
“It’s over, it’s over. Once our ancestor dies, the general’s mansion will be in danger!”
“…”
Everyone in the Murong family was frightened and couldn’t believe it.
They never dreamed that the General’s biggest trump card would die like this.
Even the head was cut off.
It’s incredible!
“I have to admit that the ancestor is really powerful. If he hadn’t ambushed him in advance, he might
not have been able to kill him.” Murong Hai smiled lightly.
But at this moment, his smile fell into everyone’s eyes, as terrifying as a demon.
With his own efforts, he actually plotted against the entire General’s Mansion.
This kind of person is really terrible!
“No! Impossible!”
Murong Cheng shook his head repeatedly, finding it difficult to accept: “The ancestor is so powerful,
how can a mere Rakshasa from Tianzhu country possibly kill the ancestor?!”
“I didn’t say there was only Rakshasa.”
Murong Hai said calmly: “Don’t you know that Raksha and Yaksha in Tianzhu Kingdom are always
inseparable? If Raksha is here, then where do you think Yaksha will be?”
“Yasha?”
Murong Cheng’s pupils shrank: “Is he here too?”
That is a martial arts master of the same level as Luo Cha, and his strength is unfathomable.
“bingo.”
Murong Hai snapped his fingers.
Behind him, another man in black robe slowly lifted his cloak, revealing a face of mixed blood.
Astonishingly, he is a master-level expert from Tianzhu Kingdom, Yasha!
“One Rakshasa can’t defeat the ancestor, so what about Yaksha?” Murong Hai asked with a smile.
As soon as these words came out, Murong Cheng was struck by lightning.
Chapter: 2070
Then his legs went weak and he collapsed on the ground, his face ashen.
His eyes were full of despair.
It’s over, it’s really over now.
The ancestor is dead, and the General’s Mansion no longer has a trump card.
And Murong Hai has two grandmasters in charge. Once they take action, they have no chance of
winning.
It can be seen from this that the General’s Mansion is really about to face disaster.
At this moment, both the Murong family and the guests felt deep despair and helplessness.
No one expected that the General’s Mansion, which used to be so powerful in all directions, would be
forced to the point of desperation.
“Father…”
At this time, Murong Hai raised his head slowly, and said with piercing eyes: “All your reliance is gone,
and all your pride is also torn to pieces.”
“Now, I have the final say here. I need you to give me an explanation about what happened back then.”
“Otherwise, from today on, General Murong’s Mansion will cease to exist!”
Murong Hai’s simple words carried an unquestionable pressure.
Everyone was frightened and trembling with fear.
Their eyes unanimously looked at Murong Zhenguo.
As the person with the highest status and the most power here, the old general’s attitude determines
the life or death of the entire family.
“Traitor! You killed your brothers, brought harm to the family, and were treasonous. Now you actually
have the nerve to ask me for an explanation? Do you really regard yourself as a victim?!” Murong
Zhenguo shouted in a deep voice.
He always felt that Murong Hai was his best successor.
With courage, strategy and government, he can lead his family to glory.
It’s a pity that the best son went astray in the end and became at odds with the family.
While he was angry, he was also heartbroken.
“Father, you have to know that I was forced to do this by you. If you hadn’t forced my wife to death, how
could I have embarked on this path today?” Murong Hai said calmly.
“That woman’s death is related to me, so what if it is really related? She deserves to die!” Murong
Zhenguo said with a cold face.
“Damn?”
Murong Hai laughed at himself: “Father, she is your daughter-in-law, and you actually think she
deserves to die?”
“She is my daughter-in-law, but she is also a spy of the enemy country, and she is an enemy of our
Dragon Kingdom!”
Murong Zhenguo shouted sternly: “Do you know that because of the existence of these spies, how
many passionate men in our Dragon Kingdom have to die unjustly on the battlefield?!”
“She has repented. She has never harmed anyone. Why? Why don’t you give her a chance?!” Murong
Hai suddenly became excited.
“She didn’t harm anyone else, but she harmed you!”
Murong Zhenguo slapped the table: “You could have had a great future, but look what you are like
now? You are neither a human nor a ghost. You are simply a shame to the General’s Office!”
