Chapter 1056
Tian Du Men this side is calm and peaceful, while the Mu Long family is overcast with dark clouds.
Mu Long Hua and Mu Long Chen died, this news was announced inside the Dadian, and all the Elders were angry.
Among them, Elder Mu Long Hai was especially furious; he is the younger brother of Mu Long Chen, and the two brothers are one of the strongest brother pairs in the Mu Long family, always the pride of the family, the envy of all family disciples.
But now, his elder brother Mu Long Chen died, falling in the Mangshan Mountain Range, leaving no intact corpse.
"Family Head, this matter definitely has a problem; my elder brother could not have rashly entered the Mangshan Mountain Range; there must be something that forced him to do so, which is why he would take the risk."
"The Mangshan Mountain Range is extremely dangerous; we all know it—one would not knowingly go where there is a tiger."
"Family Head, this matter cannot be left as is; we must investigate thoroughly, find the killer of my elder brother, and punish them severely."
The Family Head seated above had an unsightly expression; he pressed his hand down toward Mu Long Hai.
"Elder Mu Long Hai, stay calm; the death of Elder Mu Long Chen will surely be avenged within the family; anyone who dares to kill a member of my Mu Long family is an enemy of my Mu Long family."
"No matter who the enemy is, I will not let him go."
Mulong Tian stood up and spoke his mind; this speech gained the approval of many Elders, after all, they are all family members, naturally wishing the family to be strong, and for a family to become strong, cohesion is an indispensable part.
The Family Head leads from the front, thinking of the clansmen; one day, if they meet such an end, the family will not forget them and will avenge them, so that they will serve the family loyally and fight desperately.
One Elder stood up and presented his suggestion.
"I think we should send people to the Mangshan Mountain Range to search for the corpses of Mu Long Hua and Elder Mu Long Chen, and find the killer."
"No one from my Mu Long family may be moved, not even the Mangshan Demon Palace."
Upon hearing this, Mu Long Hai echoed: "Exactly, what is the Mangshan Demon Palace? To dare kill our Mu Long family Elders is to not put our Mu Long family in their eyes."
The more he spoke, the angrier Mu Long Hai became; he hated to not set out immediately.
His elder brother cannot die in vain.
His remains must also be brought back for a proper family burial; we cannot let his corpse be left in the wilderness.
"Family Head, let me lead a team to the Mangshan Mountain Range this time; I will surely avenge my elder brother."
Mulong Tian again pressed his hand down: "Elder Mu Long Hai, do not act rashly; the Mangshan Demon Palace is powerful, our Mu Long family currently suffers heavy losses, Tian Du Men this time really dealt a heavy blow, killing many of our disciples, and other factions have also begun to purge traitors and spies within their sects; our Mu Long family has suffered heavy losses this time."
"If we were to clash again with the Mangshan Demon Palace, perhaps—"
"This statement is quite direct; offending the Mangshan Demon Palace is not worth it."
"At least, for now it is not worth it."
"Mu Long Hua and Mu Long Chen entered the Mangshan Mountain Range on their own; their deaths are a family matter, but we must not offend the Mangshan Demon Palace for their sake."
"The proper words, Mulong Tian would say them, but truly doing so would not be worth it."
"He must consider the interests of the entire family, not act on emotion."
One Elder stood up.
"Family Head, I agree with your words; Elder Mu Long Chen is already dead; to offend the Mangshan Demon Palace for his sake is not worth it."
"Our Mu Long family has suffered heavy losses; all our plans have come to naught, and we still face targeting from other factions; if we really take action against the Mangshan Demon Palace, those powers would be delighted, waiting for us to weaken and then strike, at which point our Mu Long family would be in peril."
"Another Elder beside him stood up and said: 'Family Head, Elder Mu Long Jie's words are quite right; the family must consider its safety; the Mangshan Demon Palace is strong, not something our single family can resist; offending the Mangshan Demon Palace is not worth it.'"
"If we truly provoke the Mangshan Demon Palace, I fear our Mu Long family cannot withstand it."
"By then, other factions will sit on the mountain watching the tigers fight, enjoying the spoils; our Mu Long family will be not far from destruction."
"This matter must be considered carefully."
"We cannot be willful."
"Only by considering the overall situation can we better serve the family."
Mu Long Hai, upon hearing this, flew into a rage: "Nonsense, your words are pure deception; the Mangshan Demon Palace is certain, they will not act against us."
"They are a bunch of beasts; once they act, other factions will not stand by idly."
"Furthermore, we are not going to seek trouble with the Mangshan Demon Palace, and we will not offend the Mangshan Demon Palace."
Mulong Tian ignored them, instead looking toward the silent Great Elder to the side.
"Great Elder, what do you say?"
The Great Elder opened his eyes, glanced around, and the entire hall fell silent.
Even the angry Mu Long Hai fell silent.
"Family Head, I believe this matter must be investigated thoroughly, while also ensuring we do not offend the Mangshan Demon Palace."
"The Mangshan Demon Palace is powerful; no one knows how strong they are now; our Mu Long family facing the Mangshan Demon Palace is no match; rashly offending the Mangshan Demon Palace is not good for our Mu Long family."
"The Family Head can first contact the Mangshan Demon Palace side, explain the situation, then send people in to investigate."
Mulong Tian's eyes lit up: "The Great Elder's plan is excellent; what do you think?"
Several Elders clasped their fists in unison: "We will follow the Family Head's orders."
"Elder Mu Long Hai, what do you think?" Mulong Tian asked.
Mu Long Hai immediately replied: "Family Head, I have no opinion, but I want to personally lead the team forward."
Upon hearing this, Mulong Tian nodded: "Alright, let Elder Mu Long Jie and two other Elders accompany you."
"Thank you, Family Head." Mu Long Hai was overjoyed; going into the Mangshan Mountain Range alone, he had no confidence in his heart.
With three Elders accompanying him, even if they encountered a Demon King, they would not be afraid.
As long as they do not court death, venturing deep into the Mangshan Mountains will pose no danger.
"Go, find… the remains of Elder Mu Long Chen, and bring him home."
"Yes, Family Head."
Mu Long Hai led his people away; the Dadian soon emptied.
Only Mulong Tian and the Great Elder Mu Long Di remained; the Great Elder looked at the Family Head and said: "Family Head, you let Elder Mu Long Hai go to the Mangshan Mountain Range—are you intending to probe the Mangshan Demon Palace's details?"
Mulong Tian smiled: "Not bad; the Mangshan Demon Palace has been unusually quiet for the past hundred years, very suspicious."
"I believe they are surely plotting something; this time sending them to the Mangshan Mountain Range serves two purposes: first, to find the killer of Mu Long Chen and bring him to justice; second, to have them gather some intelligence on the Mangshan Demon Palace, preparing for our family's advance into the Mangshan Mountain Range."
The Grand Elder said worriedly, "I'm just afraid they might fail."
Mang Mountain is not a safe place; once you go in, wanting to get out is not that easy.
And the murderer who killed Elder Mu Long Chen is probably not simple, Family Head—aren't you afraid?
Mulong Tian waved his hand: "Believe in them, they are all Elders of our Mu Long family; nothing will happen."
