Chapter 279: 279 completely eliminate future troubles?

"In recent days, being defeated repeatedly by Mu Hanyan might seem to be a bad thing in grandfather’s eyes, but it’s not. Trees need to weather storms to grow taller and stronger, and people are the same. Only by falling a few times can you become more mature and resilient.

I can no longer have high hopes for your brothers, or even for your father and uncles. They have all lost their edge, content with the status quo, without any ambition. If they were to take over the family, Zhao Family would never regain its former glory.

The only person I can rely on now is you!" Family Head Zhao said, looking at Fourth Miss Zhao expectantly.

"Rest assured, grandfather, I swear I will give it my all, no matter the cost, to fulfill your great aspirations," Fourth Miss Zhao felt a surge of passion coursing through her veins, as if something were stuck in her chest and she couldn’t breathe until she had spoken these words, which brought her some relief.

"Good!" Hearing the oath of Fourth Miss Zhao, Family Head Zhao was greatly invigorated, appearing to have grown younger by years as he heartily approved.

"In our generation, we were actually stronger than the elders of the Mu Family. Zhao Family’s status today also stems from this reason. Your father’s generation might lack initiative, but they are more than capable of preserving their heritage, and were originally stronger than their contemporaries from the Mu Family. It’s a pity that the Capital City Mu Family sent Mu Rui An to Heishi City. His exceptional talents and skills are indeed superior, so the hope for Zhao Family’s revitalization must now rest on you.

Although Mu Hanfeng and Mu Feng of your generation are hailed as prodigies by the Mu Family, I don’t see them as much stronger than you. What you really need to be wary of is Mu Hanyan. His actions are inscrutable, and even I cannot fully understand him," Family Head Zhao explained.

"Yes, I will be careful," Although reluctant to admit it, Fourth Miss Zhao couldn’t deny that the Mu Hanyan of today truly warranted her full caution, no longer the playboy she used to deal with at will.

"The minor, harmless tricks of the past shouldn’t be used anymore. If you get the chance, it’s best to cripple him completely, to prevent any future trouble," Family Head Zhao said, a fierce glint flickering in his eyes.

"Ah!" Fourth Miss Zhao was startled. No matter how intensely she had fought with Mu Hanyan, she had always considered his family background and restrained herself to not go too far, to be able to answer to her family. She hadn’t expected her grandfather to be so ruthless, actually suggesting that she cripple Mu Hanyan directly.

"If we do, the Mu Family probably won’t just let it go," Fourth Miss Zhao expressed her concern.

"As long as it’s done without anyone knowing, what can the Mu Family do about it?" Family Head Zhao stated coldly.

"You... you mean to kill him!" Fourth Miss Zhao finally understood what her grandfather meant, and her expression was one of utter shock.

"In a little over two months, Zhengying Academy will hold a trial in the Longyan Mountain Range. In addition to Academy Disciples, major families can also send their descendants to participate. This is also an opportunity for Zhengying Academy to scout family scions in preparation for the next admission. I’ve already enrolled you. I suppose the Mu Family will enroll Mu Hanyan too, so find your chance then," Family Head Zhao said coolly.

"Yes, I understand. I will certainly cultivate diligently during this period," Fourth Miss Zhao fully comprehended her grandfather’s intentions. After the initial shock, she felt an indescribable thrill.

For years, she had held back from severely harming Mu Hanyan, always restraining herself. This time, she could finally use any means necessary to lead Mu Hanyan to his demise!
