Chapter 347: Chapter 347: Master!

The next day.

Su Qingyan came to Chen Fan with a worried expression and said, "Chen Fan, that old ancestor from the Jiang Family is extremely formidable, and you may not be his opponent. The Jiang Family will certainly not let this matter rest easily. What are we going to do?"

She had been immersed in the state of Chen Fan’s arrival like the War God himself, rescuing her from dire straits, and believed that as long as Chen Fan was there, any problem could be easily resolved. Hence, she had overlooked the terror of the Jiang Family’s old ancestor.

Waking up early this morning, she realized the extent of the trouble that Chen Fan had caused, which was why she hurried to find Chen Fan so urgently.

Chen Fan smiled as he glanced at Su Qingyan and said, "Haven’t I told you already? Even Divine Realm beings wouldn’t scare me, rest assured."

Su Qingyan’s face was still full of worry, "But... but..."

Chen Fan pinched her cheek and said, "Alright, there are no buts. I will handle this matter well."

Just then, a servant from the Mu Family came running, "Miss, the family head is calling for you and Mr. Chen to the council hall."

Su Qingyan nodded, then looked towards Chen Fan and said, "They probably want to discuss how to deal with the Jiang Family. Let’s hurry over."

Together, the two of them walked towards the council hall.

By the time they arrived, the Mu Family’s senior ranks had already been waiting, and the atmosphere was somewhat tense.

Mu Tianxiong, standing at the front, saw Chen Fan and Su Qingyan arrive, turned his head to look at Mu Guangping and Wang Feng, and said, "They’re both here now. Didn’t you say you had something to announce? Go ahead."

Mu Guangping and Wang Feng both looked at Chen Fan and Su Qingyan with disapproval.

Mu Guangping said with a serious expression, "Yesterday, Chen Fan acted recklessly on his own and injured Jiang Family’s experts. He may still be pleased with himself, but we all should realize that his actions have put our Mu Family right in the eye of the storm."

"I’ve already received news. The old ancestor of the Jiang Family has rushed back to the Capital overnight, and he will soon come to seek justice with Chen Fan. The current situation is extremely unfavorable for the Mu Family."

"Therefore, to minimize the losses, I propose we expel Su Qingyan from the Mu Family now and let these two bear the consequences of this incident."

Wang Feng immediately agreed, saying, "Exactly, the Jiang Family wants Qingyan, and it was Chen Fan who botched the matter, so their anger should fall on these two. Our Mu Family need not sacrifice the entire family’s future for their sake."

Su Qingyan’s face turned extremely pale, never expecting that they had called her over to disassociate themselves from her.

Mu Tianxiong had not expected that this was what Mu Guangping intended to bring up, and said, "This situation is not only Qingyan’s fault. Our Mu Family can’t abandon Qingyan at a time like this."

Wang Feng sneered, "Indeed, it’s not her fault alone, it’s the fault of her and Chen Fan together. It’s only fair that the two of them face the consequences. Everyone agrees, right?"

Many members of the Mu Family started murmuring their agreement.

Chen Fan looked coldly at Mu Guangping and Wang Feng, and said, "You were the ones who forced Qingyan into marriage with the Jiang Family, and now that there’s a problem, you want to distance yourselves from Qingyan. When there’s a benefit to be reaped, you rush to claim it, but when there’s trouble, you let Qingyan take the blame. Is this the true face of you Mu Family people?"

Wang Feng retorted vehemently, "Isn’t the trouble all because of you, you ignorant bastard? What right do you have to speak about us here?"

Mu Guangping said coldly, "We are merely trying to minimize the damage. Qingyan has been cultivated by the family and should be prepared to make sacrifices for the family."

Chen Fan countered, "What cultivation have you given her? She is a member of the Su Family, not your Mu Family! As I understand, her upbringing from childhood was by the Su Family members, and has nothing to do with your Mu Family!"

Wang Feng aggressively said, "The Su Family could only develop as they did locally with the backing of our Mu Family. Just for that fact alone, Su Qingyan should be willing to risk her life for our Mu Family!"

Chen Fan was speechless, finding Su Qingyan’s aunt and uncle simply unreasonable.

At that moment, Mu Tianxiong slammed the table and said, "No matter what, Qingyan is still my granddaughter. I do not agree with disassociating from her. If there’s a problem, we face it together."

Mu Guangping frowned, "Dad, the other party is the Jiang Family. Not only should we distance ourselves from Qingyan, but we also need to grovel to the Jiang Family. Only then can we have a chance to avoid being suppressed!"

Mu Tianxiong’s expression turned cold, "Who is the family head, you or me? I’m not dead yet, and you want to make decisions without my consent?"

Mu Guangping fell silent, but it was clear that he was very dissatisfied.

Wang Feng muttered under his breath, "Really a senile old man. You’re going to ruin the Mu Family. What will we inherit in the future? How will I enjoy any comfort then? Truly speechless."

Just then, someone ran in panicking and shouted loudly, "The people from the Jiang... the Jiang Family are here!"

Everyone was startled.

Mu Tianxiong’s expression became more serious, and he quickly walked towards the outside.

Members of the Mu Family also followed suit, one after another.

Su Qingyan looked anxiously at Chen Fan, gripping his arm tightly.

Chen Fan gently patted her twice, leading her as they walked outside.

In the courtyard, Jiang Longshan, along with a host of others from the Jiang Family, approached with an aggressive momentum.

Jiang Yunlei’s injuries had already recovered considerably, but at this moment, he was sitting in a wheelchair being pushed over.

All of them carried a look of confidence on their faces, all because of one thing: the elder of their Jiang Family had returned!

"Patriarch of the Jiang Family is arriving soon. Hurry up and drag that Chen surname brat out; he must die today!" Jiang Longshan yelled loudly.

Mu Tianxiong quickly stepped forward and said, "Patriarch of the Jiang Family, I think there’s room to discuss this matter; why must we go to such extremes?"

Jiang Longshan hadn’t spoken yet when Jiang Yunlei cursed from the side, "Discuss my ass! If that kid doesn’t die, my heart won’t be at peace! Not just that kid; all of you from the Mu Family are no good either. I’ll make sure all of you understand the consequences of provoking us of the Jiang Family!"

Mu Guangping rolled his eyes, then gritted his teeth, stepped forward, and bowed to the people of the Jiang Family, saying, "Patriarch of the Jiang Family, Mr. Jiang, we have already decided to expel Su Qingyan from the Mu Family. We have completely severed our ties with Su Qingyan and this Chen Fan. You can deal with them however you like."

"To show our sincerity, I’m now representing the Mu Family in offering a formal apology to everyone in the Jiang Family. We’re willing to give up half of the Mu Family’s assets as an apology and promise to be at the beck and call of the Jiang Family from now on!"

Mu Tianxiong, upon hearing this, began to tremble with anger. "Mu Guangping, what authority do you have to represent the Mu Family! I am the head of the Mu Family!"

Mu Guangping looked at Mu Tianxiong and said, "Dad, you’ve been the head of the family for so many years; it’s time to step down. I’m doing this to protect the Mu Family. Just listen to my arrangement."

Jiang Longshan laughed heartily and said to Mu Guangping, "You’re quite sensible. Since you’re so sincere, I don’t mind agreeing. As long as your Mu Family acts as the dogs of the Jiang Family from now on, I won’t trouble your Mu Family today, and I’ll also help you take the position of head of the family!"

Mu Guangping’s eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "Thank you, Patriarch of the Jiang Family. From now on, my Mu Family shall be the dogs of the Jiang Family, obeying all commands from the people of the Jiang Family!"

Mu Tianxiong, gnashing his teeth with rage, said, "Mu Guangping, you backstabbing bastard!"

Wang Feng retorted, "Old fool, my husband is doing this for the sake of the Mu Family, unlike you, who would lead the Mu Family into dire straits. We definitely can’t agree to what you’re doing!"

Chen Fan, watching this play out, couldn’t help but laugh, stepping forward and saying with a smile, "True colors reveal themselves during a crisis; nothing could be truer."

Mu Guangping snorted coldly, "Kid, you’re on the brink of death; don’t get ahead of yourself here."

He looked at Jiang Longshan, "Patriarch of the Jiang Family, please have the elder take care of this kid. The Mu Family will not interfere in any way!"

Jiang Longshan smirked, then turned to the side, bowing respectfully, "We humbly invite the elder!"

All members of the Jiang Family turned to the side, opening a path, and bowed in unison, saying, "We humbly invite the elder!"

Then, an elder with white hair and a white beard, dressed in a long robe, began to walk toward them.

His steps were slow, but with each one he took, he advanced several meters, which looked quite mystical.

Mu Guangping, gazing at the elder with an air of immortality, thought to himself, "Is this what a Divine Realm master is like? Indeed, it feels extraordinary and magical; Chen Fan has no chance of surviving today."

Jiang Longshan pointed at Chen Fan, who was not far away, and respectfully said, "Elder, this is the man who took away our bride and left us severely injured. Please, elder, take action and eliminate this villain!"

The people of the Jiang Family echoed in unison, "Please, elder, eliminate this villain!"

Mu Tianxiong looked desperate and murmured to himself, "With the elder of the Jiang Family making a move, Chen Fan has no hope of escape."

Su Qingyan had a nervous look on her face, "This old man looks so formidable; can Chen Fan really handle him?"

Under the gaze of anticipation, tension, and unease of the crowd, the elder of the Jiang Family looked in Chen Fan’s direction.

He was taken aback at first, then his face showed utter surprise as he exclaimed loudly, "Master?!!!"
