Chapter 32 Mu Yunshan
Mu Ziyan paused, turned to look at Qin Xiao, and said in surprise, "But young master, my father..."
She wanted to say that her father was extremely powerful and ruthless, and was not someone to be trifled with.
Not to mention, this sudden trip might be related to the Prince of Jin!
Qin Xiao smiled slightly and reassured him, "Don't worry, I've got everything covered."
Upon hearing this, Mu Ziyan felt inexplicably at ease.
She bit her lower lip, then finally nodded emphatically: "Mmm!"
Since you've chosen to believe...
I'll believe him to the end!
The two quickly got dressed.
Mu Ziyan tidied her slightly disheveled hair in front of the mirror and took a few deep breaths.
Qin Xiao picked up the dark mask and put it back on. His clothes were neat and there was no sign of anything amiss.
After getting ready, Mu Ziyan took a deep breath, exchanged a glance with Qin Xiao, and stepped forward to open the door to her boudoir.
Outside the door, Zhishu and two other personal maids were waiting anxiously.
As soon as the door opened, all three eyes turned to him.
When they saw their young mistress's slightly swollen lips.
Then, recalling the faint, embarrassing noises that had been coming from inside the house earlier.
Her pretty face flushed red all the way to her ears.
He quickly lowered his head, not daring to meet Mu Ziyan and Qin Xiao's gaze.
Zhi Shu's heart was filled with even more turbulent waves.
The young lady was actually with this young master she had just met, who had caused such a disaster...
That's incredibly audacious!
She was extremely surprised, but dared not show it at all. She could only brace herself and remind him again, "Miss, Master is already waiting for us at Wenxuan Tower in the backyard. He doesn't look too good."
Mu Ziyan had made up her mind. She glanced at Qin Xiao, who was calm and composed beside her, and resumed her usual aloof and dignified demeanor as the Pavilion Master.
However, the lingering allure in her eyes and brows could not be concealed.
"understood."
She gave a curt reply.
Then, she did something that left Zhishu and the maids speechless.
She actually took the initiative to reach out and link arms with Qin Xiao!
"Let's go."
Mu Ziyan spoke again, glancing sideways at Qin Xiao, her tone softening slightly: "Let's go see Father."
Qin Xiao nodded slightly, letting Mu Ziyan take his arm, and calmly left under the shocked gazes of Zhishu and the maids.
Zhi Shu and the two maids exchanged glances, and suddenly felt a wave of dizziness.
Miss, this is not just about keeping people here.
Are we to take him directly to meet the master?
hiss……
She dared not think any further and quickly followed...
……
at the same time.
Inside the main hall of Wenxuan Building.
Seated in the main seat was a middle-aged man who appeared to be around fifty years old.
He was dressed in a dark blue brocade robe with a jade belt around his waist.
His imposing presence, stemming from his long-held position, made people afraid to look him in the eye.
This person is Mu Yunshan, the president of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce and Mu Ziyan's father.
What's even more striking is that he exudes a refined and profound aura.
He was actually an eighth-level martial artist!
Although his identity as a businessman made him less capable in practical matters.
But one's level of attainment cannot be faked!
Behind him, on his left and right, stood two young men dressed in tight-fitting clothes, exuding a fierce aura.
The two men held back their inner energy, like tigers lying in wait.
His aura was comparable to Mu Yunshan's; both were eighth-level martial artists!
Shortly after, footsteps could be heard outside the hall.
Mu Yunshan looked up and saw his daughter, Mu Ziyan, and a masked stranger walking in one after the other.
He glanced at Qin Xiao behind him.
They assumed he was just a newly recruited guard by Mu Ziyan and didn't take him seriously.
After taking a deep breath, he anxiously asked Mu Ziyan, "Yan'er! I heard that His Highness Prince Jin was seriously injured and unconscious in Ziyan Pavilion? Is this news true?!"
Although the Sihai Chamber of Commerce is powerful and has good relations with various forces.
Many powerful and influential people still rely on the financial resources of the Chamber of Commerce.
However, the Prince of Jin was, after all, a vassal king.
If this matter escalates, it could give others a handle to use against us, enough to provoke the court's fury.
It could even bring utter destruction to the entire Mu family!
We must find out the truth immediately and find a way to calm the situation.
Even at a huge cost!
Mu Ziyan sensed her father's urgency, and her heart tightened.
He immediately tried to explain, attempting to take the blame upon himself.
However, before she could even open her lips, Qin Xiao stepped forward from behind, standing in front of her, and spoke first: "In a martial arts arena, fists and feet have no eyes; injuries and deaths are perfectly normal. Why make such a fuss!"
Upon hearing this, the entire main hall fell into a deathly silence.
Mu Ziyan's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly tugged at Qin Xiao's sleeve.
I didn't expect Qin Xiao to be so direct.
It got to the point of being arrogant!
The maids and servants at the door turned pale with fright, clutching each other's hands, too afraid to even breathe.
Is this person crazy?
How dare you speak like that in front of the master!
The eyes of the two eighth-level martial artists behind Mu Yunshan suddenly sharpened.
His true energy subtly fluctuated, locking onto Qin Xiao.
As long as Mu Yunshan gives the order, they will immediately take action and capture this madman!
After his initial shock, Mu Yunshan's face instantly darkened, as if it could drip water.
He has been in the business world for decades and has met all kinds of people.
This is the first time I've ever seen anyone dare to speak to him in such an arrogant tone!
They're absolutely courting death!
"Who are you?"
Mu Yunshan's eyes hardened as he glared at Qin Xiao and questioned him.
The pressure of an eighth-level martial artist, accompanied by the oppressive feeling of someone who has long held a superior position, suddenly swept towards Qin Xiao!
Under such pressure, an ordinary person would already be trembling with fear and losing their composure!
Sensing her father's anger, Mu Ziyan was extremely anxious and quickly spoke, trying to ease the tension: "Father, who is this...?"
"It's me!"
At this moment, Qin Xiao met Mu Yunshan's gaze and said calmly, "It was me who injured Qin Yuan!"
At that moment, the air froze once again!
Mu Yunshan's pupils suddenly contracted.
The two guards behind him placed their hands on the weapons at their waists.
The murderous aura in the hall suddenly intensified!
