Chapter 2 The Fall of Genius
Mu Qian, the owner of the Mu family, also went to the palace with the two elders and Mu Chen. Obviously, Mu Qian attached great importance to the little genius of the Mu family. Mu Chen went to the palace for the first time in his life. Every ingenious building in the palace surprised him, an eight-year-old boy.
Under the leadership of a father-in-law, several people quickly came to a huge courtyard. There was a jasper tombstone in the middle of the courtyard. In front of the tombstone was a path for worship. The path was not gorgeous compared with other buildings in the palace, but it had a special solemnity.
All the civil and military officials knelt on both sides of the path, and in front of the officials were Empress Jiang and Prime Minister Meng, who fought in the hall that day. Their faces were extremely sad, but their hearts were ghosts. Ling Cheng's strength and prestige are far less than that of them. Today, the king who feared them was lying quietly in the coffin, and the whole emperor The country will also be in the hands of the two.
The three respectful young men standing in the front are the three sons of Ling Cheng. Today, two of the three princes are about 20. When Mu Chen saw the youngest prince, he broke out in a cold sweat. Now Ling Xing, the prince in white and filial clothes, is the teenager who drank with Mu Chen last night. Ling Xing's sad face is slightly insufficient compared with the other two, but ordinary people can't see the hatred buried in his eyes.
Mu Chen seemed to be able to see through the other party's heart. Looking at Ling Xing, his quiet heart became unable to calm down at this time.
After several people waited for a long time, a small eunuch sent a few columns of incense to them, bowed and motioned several people to the tomb to put incense. Several people followed the path to the tomb. When Ling Xing saw Mu Chen, his face was stunned for a few seconds and returned to his original state. In any way, the two did not expect to meet here, but After all, they are not ordinary children. Although they know each other, from the performance of the two, they are two teenagers who are strange to each other.
The moonlight in the past seems to have always been beautiful, but today's silver light is particularly dazzling in Mu Chen's eyes. A ray of silver moonlight shining from the house to his face is like a knife, stabbing Mu Chen's heart, coldly unable to shed a drop of blood.
The noisy restaurant at night, the inn where people come and go carry the romantic and charming drunken flower house. At this time, this scene is so vulgar and boring in Mu Chen's eyes. Once again, I came to the hotel and saw that the seat where I met Ling Xing yesterday was empty, and my heart also felt inexplicable sadness.
Looking at the empty seat, even he doesn't know where his sadness comes from. He is the prince, and such a thing happened at home. How can he still be interested in this? Mu Chen shook his head slightly and was about to turn around and leave. A figure suddenly came to him and fought without saying a word. After a few rounds, they both stopped. That night, they chatted all night, and Ling Xing lost his father. Although he was a prince, he was a ten-year-old teenager after all. Ling Xing cried and promised that this would be his last cry. This night, the two became close friends and talked about nothing.
People still shuttle back and forth on the streets. The fastest thing in the world is often not the sunshine shining on the earth, but time. Ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, the largest martial arts competition platform of the Mu family. The coming-of-age ceremony of the Mu family is being held here, and all 18-year-year-old family members will have a competition here. This is also an important reference for the Mu family to select the future family leaders and even patriarchs. They are dressed in black on the martial arts stage, with a calm face like water. This person is Mu Chen.
The people under the stage were full of coldness and disdain in the eyes of the genius. The girl standing opposite was dressed in emerald green dress, white as jade, and slender fingers. She was not enchanting, but pure and arrogant. It was Mu Xue who met Mu Chen on the stairs that completely turned into a mature woman, and her appearance made countless young people crazy.
The countless respect and admiring eyes under the stage formed a sharp contrast with the eyes of Mu Chen. The girl on the stage looked at Mu Chen opposite with regret and pity. With the beginning of Mu Qianyi's wave of his hand, Mu Xue's true anger surged out, the corners of his mouth were slightly opened, and a sweet voice came from his mouth: "Jinrou Palm."
Immediately, Mu Xue's true energy quickly condensed to the palm of his hand. The slender palm seemed to wave gently, and a strong strength flew to Mu Chen.
The latter was unable to dodge and defend, and was directly hit under the stage. Looking at the vulnerable young man opposite and looking at herself who easily knocked down her opponent, Mu Xue did not have a trace of pride. Somehow, there was only a faint sadness in her heart, and even a trace of apology. Just now, she clearly used only used a part of her strength, but it might be better to subtract some strength. Although Mu Xue regretted it, but The face is still cold.
Mu Chen knew that the woman who had just knocked him down had something to do, and also gave him a little relief, but can this trace of comfort really match the ridicule and disdain of countless people? Even if the qualifications are extremely poor, there has been no progress in the practice of true qi in the past ten years, but in the same clan, do they really need to fall into the well like this? Mu Chen is just indifferent. With a smile, he didn't want to stay in the place where these people gathered for another moment. In countless white eyes, he left silently like a clown.
Mu Qian, not far away, sighed gently when he saw the young man leave and shook his head slightly. Unexpectedly, the genius who shocked the whole family is now lonely now. For ten years, there has been no progress on the road of cultivation, and ten years has been grinding this genius into waste wood.
Mu Chen looked up at the sky. Is such a family really worth staying in the future? For ten years, because he has been staying in a moderate situation, as others continue to become stronger, he has gradually changed from admiring his enthusiasm for Mu Chen. Until now, no one is willing to talk to him except his sister.
Mu Chen walked directly out of Mufu and walked for a long time until he lay on a remote and abandoned field. In this way, he kept looking at the white clouds in the sky, but he could not feel the beauty of the blue sky and white clouds.
"Young master of waste materials, today's competition is wonderful. The soft palm is a move that hurts the opponent, but she has no name and has no strength for the palm you hit. Sister Mu Xue is so merciful to you. Although I know that she doesn't like your waste, today I am in a good mood and do good deeds. Help the family discipline the garbage without talent. The man in white said behind his hands.
Beyond were the two people with flatting faces, one of whom stared at Mu Chen with a strong contempt and said with a sneer, "Brother Mu Yang, don't bother you to teach this boy a lesson. I'm enough to do it alone, so that you won't get caught in the bad luck of this waste material."
After saying that, he walked towards Mu Chen. Mu Chen looked gloomily at the man who came towards him. Obviously, he had broken through the realm and reached the realm of the sky. Mu Chen also operated the real qi, but the two true qi were extremely different in terms of momentum and strength.
The young man who came here smiled playfully when he saw Mu Chen's operation, "It's really amazing. I had such achievements ten years ago, but it's still the same ten years later. Don't think that you can make the same generation of the Mu family look up to you today." Speaking of the man's five fingers into claws, there was an extremely strong true spirit in his claws. While running to Mu Chen, he kept waving his claws to Mu Chen. Every time he waved, a sharp scratch flew to the latter.
With such a sharp and powerful attack, Mu Chen's true spirit collapsed invisibly with his touch. After hitting Mu Chen with a few moves, the latter suddenly turned pale and spit out blood. More than 20 blood-stained claw marks appeared on his chest. In a blink of an eye, the man had rushed to Mu Chen, and his five fingers were like a sharp blade to the latter. Grab the chest.
When the five fingers immediately touched Mu Chen's chest, a seemingly soft but majestic true breath palm print hit the five fingers on Mu Chen's chest. In an instant, the true spirit on the five fingers were all dispersed, and the sound of the broken fingers kept ringing with a heartbreaking scream. The man quickly withdrew his hand and stepped back a few steps. He looked at the owner of that palm with rage.
A graceful girl came slowly, and her beautiful eyes were full of anger and atmosphere.
Mu Yang, who was not far away, applauded with a smile and continued, "It's worthy of Mu Xue's sister. She repelled this waste with just one move. I'm very happy to be a brother today."
"Get out of here, whoever will take action against Mu Chen in the future, don't blame me for not talking about family affairs." Mu Xue said coldly to Mu Yang and others with no expression on her face.
Mu Yang was very unhappy to see this scene, but with his strength, he tied with the woman in front of him at most. This powerful and beautiful girl protected Mu Chen, which made him have no choice. Then he reluctantly smiled at Mu Xue and said, "We just want to help Mu Chen practice true qi, but since Mu Xue's sister is here, we will leave." After saying that, Mu Yang hurried away with the two people around him.
Mu Xue just snorted and ignored Mu Yang's words. After all, how could he be so heavy to help Mu Chen? Mu Chen looked at the beautiful girl. Is this the girl who kept crying in the pavilion?
"The injury is not serious." Mu Xue still said flatly.
"It's nothing serious. Thank you for today." Mu Chen whispered that he looked so small and incompetent in front of the girl in front of him.
Mu Xue walked to Mu Chen and sat on the ground full of weeds. Even if she wore a white and dust-free dress, she did not care about the soil on the ground and said, "In the past ten years, you must be very uncomfortable. There is no end to cultivation, and it's okay to pause."
Mu Chen laughed and said, "In a moderate situation, there are people in the family who don't laugh at me except my sister. Mu Xue, thank you very much."
"It's really difficult to practice. At the end of each realm, there is a big bottleneck that is extremely difficult to overcome, and there are many small bottlenecks in the realm. The initial situation can be directly broken through, and the boundary is divided into three levels, and the empty world is divided into five levels. I really don't know how many bottlenecks there are in the realm in the future. I can't say that I will be attacked by Mu Chen one day. My brother has exceeded, that... Just call me Cher in the future." Mu Xue said with a slightly red face.
Mu Chen was happy after hearing this, but then said, "How can I deserve to call you Xue'er? Look at this wasteland. I just came here to feel that the weeds here and I miss them. Because they are not beautiful, no one cares about them, and you are the most dazzling and beautiful flowers. We now seem to be People from two worlds, two planes that do not intersect. After saying that, Mu Chen walked far away to prepare to leave here.
"Where are you going?" Mu Xue asked in a low voice.
"I'm going to my world." Mu Chen didn't look back and said as he walked.
Mu Xue looked at the fading back and did not think of the back in the pavilion ten years ago. Now he seems to be much strange to her. His inner world has been closed, and even she can't enter.
Is it day now? Why do I feel that it is still night? No matter how bright the light still shines on the darkness, interests, rights, money and strength in people's hearts. No matter where the world is, people always rank others like this in their hearts. Is this ridiculous human beings? Mu Chen has seen the root of human nature in ten years, but this is only the tip of the iceberg.
The streets are still full of traffic and noise, but people's nobleness has become more and more obvious over time. It is extremely common for rich businessmen and officials to beat the poor on the street.
A young master of a rich family held a bird cage in his hand and kept looking at the young girls on the street, followed by three big men in armor. One of them showed a kind of pure silver-white armor, and the pedestrians on the road avoided them one after another.
At this time, three fierce-looking and extremely strong men came towards each other. Looking at the momentum of the two sides, they obviously did not intend to give way to each other. Both sides seemed to be walking as if no one had happened in front of them.
When he was about to touch the other party, the rich young master's face darkened and only said one word in a low voice: "Get out." The big man in front of him did not pay attention to the young master in front of him at all. He waved a fierce punch. The young master in front of him blocked it with his right hand. While blocking it, both of them frowned slightly. Just this simple fight, they both felt that each other's strength was first-class empty.
"Is this strength your arrogant capital?" The young master holding the bird cage with his left hand hard, and the bird cage burst with a 'boom'. His palm immediately held the bird in the cage. Immediately, the bird was gripped violently, and blood was all around. In one breath, the bird died without even making a cry. Its means were cruel.
Then the blood-filled left hand condensed the true qi. At this moment, even the true qi in his hand became bloody. His five fingers became claws and grabbed the big man in front of him. The latter's fist full of power and true qi hit the blood-red five fingers. The fists and claws collided, and the big man retreated a few steps with an ugly face, just full of pride. When the young master planned to take advantage of the victory and chase, a man with a huge sword on his back instantly moved to the front of his newly retreating companion, and the young man in silver armor behind him opened the corners of his eyes slightly. Obviously, he saw that the man with a huge sword was extremely strong, and also blocked the young master who rushed forward fiercely to the humane in front of him. . "I don't know who you are, but this young master is Meng Xun, the son of Prime Minister Meng. No matter how strong you are in this Yanxuan country, the end of fighting against the Prime Minister is only death. Now I don't care about leaving."
The onlookers were all shocked when they heard of Prime Minister Meng. After Ling Cheng's death, the Prime Minister's power soared. It was no exaggeration to say that he covered the sky with one hand in the city. Just as everyone thought that these three big men were going to be unlucky, the man with a huge sword laughed. . "Haha, Meng Guang is just that man. Others are afraid of him. My iron-blooded corps are not afraid of him. Don't talk nonsense with me here. Either make way or take action."
"Iron-blooded Corps, they are Iron-blooded Corps." The onlookers whispered one after another.
The Iron-blooded Corps is a powerful and mysterious organization. Since its establishment, countless powerful gangs and organizations inside and outside the capital have been destroyed or submitted. Its real strength is still unknown. The man in silver armor also began to have a headache at this time. He was not afraid of the three people in front of him, but if Master Meng Xun made any mistakes, he would be unlucky.
He clenched his fists unwillingly and turned away with Meng Xun and others. He didn't look back, but said faintly: "The Iron-blooded Corps, today has offended the Prime Minister, and the day of destroying the regiment is not far away." With the departure of Meng Xun and several others, the street returned to the noisy scene, as if nothing had happened.
Mu Chen didn't think that the battle that almost broke out ended in the crowd. Obviously, he was not very interested in it. He looked in the direction of the palace and unconsciously said to himself, "Ling Xing, he hasn't been gone for ten years."
