Chapter 74: 74 Capital City Mu Family?

"Hmph, although Mu Rui An is the head of the Heishi City Mu Family, the Mu Family is not limited to Heishi alone. He can’t cover the sky with one hand; fairness is essential in everything," the Great Elder said solemnly, then continued.

"Grandfather, are you referring to the Mu Family in the capital?" Mu Feng asked excitedly.

The Mu Family in the capital is where the main branch of the Mu Family resides.

The Mu Family’s legacy is ancient, and exactly how many years span its existence, even many descendants do not know. They only know that their family is one of the oldest in Anyun Country, possibly spanning tens of thousands of years.

Over the years, the descendants of the Mu Family have spread their branches across the Holy Court Continent. Some branches gradually declined and lost their inheritance, while others have established branch families. According to Mu Feng’s knowledge, there were six such Mu Family branches in places like Heishi City, four within Anyun Country and two abroad.

All branches, irrespective of their strength, honor the main family in the capital and are subject to its restrictions. When Mu Rui An became the head of the Heishi City Mu Family, it was a direct command from the main family, and the three elders had no room for opposition. This was normal; whether in terms of financial power, influence, or status, these branches could never compare with the main family, lacking even the status to speak on equal terms.

For the Mu Family’s disciples in each branch, the status of the main family was supremely revered. It was like how a local bumpkin from a poor mountain ravine views his wealthy relatives in the capital, akin to something to be revered and looked up to.

"Grandfather, are you going to the capital?" Mu Feng asked, his heart brimming with excitement.

The Mu Family in the capital, a colossal entity, reportedly had Great Swordsmen as a common presence, and even Sword Masters were not rare. He had long aspired to be there, but compared to others, he, being a mere Fifth Rank Swordsman and so-called genius, was nothing but scum, having no potential to rise high.

"Indeed, though Mu Rui An was appointed by the main family in the capital, he should not think he can lord over us without reason. The main family didn’t send him to Heishi City to ruin this branch of the Mu Family. Besides, I do have some influence in the main family. This time, I want to see how Mu Rui An will explain himself to us and to the main family," the Great Elder declared.

Hearing his grandfather’s confident words, Mu Feng’s gaze filled with admiration and pride.

"Alright, I will be heading to the capital in a few days. You focus on healing. Don’t worry about other matters. And don’t take the defeat too much to heart; once I’m in the capital, if possible, I’ll find a formidable master for you in the main family. One day, you surely will rise high and wash away the past dishonor effortlessly," the Great Elder said.

"Yes, yes, grandson will... Grandson will heal in peace and await the great news from the Grandfather..." Upon hearing that his grandfather had significant clout in the main family and could even find him a renowned master, Mu Feng was even more worshipful, trembling with excitement, his speech even stammering.

He knew Mu Rui An was in for a downfall this time, might even be stripped of his position as family head. Without his covert support, what chance would Mu Hanyan have to rise? As a mere Sixth-tier Knight, once he became a disciple to one of the main family’s masters, dealing with him would just be a matter of time.

The more Mu Feng thought about it, the more excited he became, and even the pain from his injuries seemed much lighter.

At this moment, Mu Hanyan, of course, was unaware of the Grand Elder and his grandson’s wishful plans. She had a restful night’s sleep.
