Chapter 363: 363 won’t give you face

"Han Yan, will you not come out, or must we few old things personally invite you?" the Second Elder yelled angrily at the carriage.

"Elders, I apologize for my rudeness, I should have personally greeted you all, but my injuries are too severe, and I really can’t move. Please forgive me." Seeing how the Great Elder and the Second Elder were so arbitrary, Han Yan also felt a bit angry in her heart and after coughing twice, she spoke. Han Yan’s voice sounded lazy but nevertheless full of vigor, showing not the slightest sign of injury. It was clear she was snubbing the Great Elder and the Second Elder, infuriating them until their faces turned pale.

"Family Head, you see, you see, not only did Han Yan fail to complete the mission, but she’s also now obfuscating and using such ridiculous excuses to fob us off. If we do not discipline her properly today, other juniors will follow suit, and our Mu Family’s thousand-year foundation may very well be destroyed in an instant," the Great Elder said in a mix of annoyance and shame.

"Well, handle it as you see fit," Mu Rui’an said impassively.

For this beloved daughter of his, he found himself understanding her less and less, only feeling that the surprises she brought him were ever increasing. He was indeed curious to see what kind of surprise she would bring this time.

Logically speaking, Yan Yuchu was a high-level expert at the Sword Master Realm, and it should have been impossible for Han Yan to rescue Mu Ziqing from him. Yet, strangely enough, upon hearing Han Yan’s lazy voice, the worry that Mu Rui’an had previously felt suddenly eased.

"Han Yan, you deceive your superiors and disrespect your teachers, according to family rules, you should be..." Seeing that Mu Rui’an did not speak up for Han Yan, probably feeling guilty himself, the Great Elder spoke with even more confidence and a stern face.

Before he could finish speaking, Mu Feng, escorted by several guards, arrived with a threatening air, ready to carry out the family law as soon as the sentence was complete.

"Wait, Great Elder, when you say I deceive my superiors and disrespect my teachers, do you mean to say that I failed to promptly report Uncle Ping An’s safe return? If so, then I accept whatever family rule you have, but if that’s not the case, I will never accept it," Han Yan interrupted the Great Elder and said resolutely.

"What?" Everyone was momentarily stunned.

"Hahaha, Han Yan, are you still spouting nonsense at a time like this? I’ve made clear inquiries; that Yan Yuchu is already a high-level expert at the Sword Master Realm, and he is also known for his paranoid and vicious nature. How could you possibly rescue someone from his clutches?" the Second Elder was the first to recover and he sneered with ridicule.

Although the others did not speak, they also seemed skeptical. It’s true that recently, Han Yan’s strength had greatly increased thanks to the Vessel Cutting Marrow Cleansing Pill, and it was said that she also became much smarter, having made Fourth Miss Zhao, Zhou Huacheng, and Yuan Tianbo, among others, suffer losses at her hands. But in the end, what she relied on was still the Young Master’s name of the City Lord’s Mansion.

If not for this status, why would people like Fourth Miss Zhao bother with any schemes and plots against her? A simple beatdown would have done the job.

Unfortunately, this status was only useful in Heishi City. For her to return with her limbs intact from Xiushui City would already be fortunate enough, let alone claiming to have rescued Mu Ziqing. Wasn’t that a fool’s dream?

"Second Elder, here is where you’re mistaken; since you clearly knew of Yan Yuchu’s strength at the Sword Master Realm and his cruel and outlandish temper, sending us on a rescue mission was clearly sending us to our deaths, was it not?" Han Yan said.
