Chapter 159: 159 will eventually soar into the sky one day

"Ah, Grandfather, why are you here too?" Mu Nan was pointing at Mu Hanyan, laughing wildly, when his laughter suddenly stopped.

"How disgraceful, how disgraceful indeed. As a son of the Mu Family Patriarch and the City Lord, how can you commit such uncivilized acts at your own doorway, causing me to lose all my face?" The Third Elder, shivering with anger, pointed at Mu Hanyan and scolded. The look he gave Mu Nan was full of disappointment.

Oh no, why didn’t I notice him earlier? This incident unfortunately happened right in front of him, Mu Hanyan thought. Now her reputation in the Third Elder’s eyes couldn’t be any darker; not even jumping into the Longyan River would cleanse it. It didn’t matter much that she was misunderstood, but it could implicate Mu Nan too.

"Grandfather, it isn’t what you saw," Mu Nan said softly, trying to explain for Mu Hanyan. His voice was so low, filled with the embarrassment of being caught, that he himself felt it hard to provide an explanation.

"It isn’t how I saw it? Then how should it be? You rebellious child, I told you not to associate with him and you wouldn’t listen. Now that I have caught you red-handed, you still speak up for him. I think you’re beyond saving!" The Third Elder was uncontrollably furious.

"Grandfather..." Mu Nan felt wronged but didn’t know how to explain, and softly tugged at the Third Elder’s robe as he spoke.

"Be quiet now," the Third Elder said, "and don’t ever call me ’grandfather’ again, whether you live or die, I won’t care for you anymore." He didn’t give Mu Nan a chance to speak and stormed away with a sweep of his robe.

From his reaction, it was clear he was utterly convinced that Mu Nan was complicit with Mu Hanyan, and he was profoundly disappointed in him.

Watching his grandfather’s back, both furious and deeply disappointed, Mu Nan felt like a deflated rubber ball, utterly dejected and standing still.

He knew that from today onward, he would never receive his grandfather’s affection again. And the cultivation resources that should have been his priority would now elude him forever—his life seemed doomed to mediocrity.

"Don’t be too heartbroken. The Third Elder just misunderstood temporarily; he will understand one day. And don’t worry about the cultivation resources. Even if the Third Elder misunderstands you for now, I will figure out a way to help you," Mu Hanyan promised Mu Nan, realizing that his troubles stemmed from her.

"Okay," Mu Nan nodded solemnly.

He was well aware of Mu Hanyan’s capabilities as a Star Divination Master. Unless he chose to forever hide them, one day she would stun everyone and become the pride of the entire Mu Family. On that day, he and his grandfather would surely reconcile, and his grandfather would be proud of his foresight and choices.

Regarding the cultivation resources, given how Mu Hanyan had identified the fake Fire Orchid and subsequently found the Dragon Blood Stone using her Star Divination skills, it was certainly not an issue.

Mu Nan had managed to establish the Nanmu Auction and develop it into one of the strongest chambers of commerce in Anyun Country—he was naturally more mature-minded than most.

Having grasped these truths and received Mu Hanyan’s promise, his depression lifted completely. There would always be a day when misunderstandings get resolved, and Mu Hanyan was bound to have her day to soar. All current misunderstandings would eventually clear up, and with Mu Hanyan’s help, he was certainly going to achieve greater success. Mu Nan was firmly convinced of this, showing unwavering trust and support in Mu Hanyan.

With Mu Hanyan’s promise came greater responsibility, and a slight alleviation in her own guilt, while Mu Nan, having received her promise, laid down his burdens as well. Thus, no longer dwelling on the issue, they headed to the Nanmu Auction.
