Chapter 774: The Yuan Family's Plot, Unbearable Any Longer

"Madam, the third young master of the Yuan family has sent a visiting card and is waiting outside."

Inside the hall, Qin Muye was chatting with Lady Mu. On the surface, they were quite amicable, but they had only been talking for about half an hour when this happened.

"Tsk, the main player is here, I guess. Many things can't be judged by appearances, and you shouldn't scare yourself," Qin Muye said sarcastically.

Anyone who had to bear the blame without any benefit would have this attitude.

"Please invite the third young master of the Yuan family in to see what he has to say," Lady Mu said, completely unfazed by Qin Muye's sarcasm, as if she hadn't understood it at all.

The third young master of the Yuan family arrived quickly. He was a tall and sturdy man, looking like a rough and tough guy, but people like him were often very cunning.

"Madam Mu, it's been a long time. Today, I come to pay my respects, and I haven't come empty-handed. I've brought some gifts to show my sincerity," the third young master of the Yuan family said, gesturing for a servant to bring in the items.

Seeing the items, Lady Mu's eyes flashed with a cold gleam, and she said coldly, "I didn't expect the items you brought to be so similar to what the Mu family recently purchased."

"Wait! Madam Mu, are you suggesting that my payment was intercepted on the way!" Qin Muye was shocked. He was usually mild-mannered because his core interests hadn't been touched, but if they were, he wouldn't hesitate to be ruthless and send the entire family to meet their maker.

The third young master of the Yuan family was also a bit surprised. He had thought this person was from another family, but he didn't show it.

"You two really know how to joke. These are items I bought with my own money," the third young master of the Yuan family said with a meaningful tone.

"What about the other items? Were they also taken?" Qin Muye reined in his emotions. Although he was shocked that someone would dare to intercept his items, it was more important to focus on his own interests right now.

"Many items have been lost, and we have no leads yet," Lady Mu said, looking worried on the surface but secretly amused.

"Is it the Yuan family? You targeting the Mu family doesn't bother me much, but intercepting my items is too much. By tomorrow, I want to see my items safely delivered to the Mu family. Otherwise, the Yuan family will no longer be necessary," Qin Muye said, his tone anything but friendly.

He might look weak, but that was just a facade. In reality, he was an 8th-stage avatar, and he usually hid his strength because there was no benefit in revealing it.

But now that his items had been taken, what was the point of hiding his strength?

Even a tiger in sheep's clothing can't always pretend; if it pretends too long, it might become a real sheep. He needed to remind himself of his true power from time to time.

The third young master of the Yuan family couldn't help but laugh, "Who are you? Speaking like that, aren't you afraid of bringing disaster to the great family behind you? Your family head might have the right to say such things, but you, a mere Mortal Realm cultivator, don't deserve it."

He had come to show off and act superior, and although he was annoyed by Qin Muye's interruption, he found it somewhat amusing.

Qin Muye's face darkened. He hadn't expected the fire to spread to him. This might be one of the opportunities brought by his protagonist aura, but he didn't lack for opportunities, and whether to take them was another matter.

"By the way, I heard that your son went missing today. Is that true?" The third young master of the Yuan family ignored Qin Muye and turned to Lady Mu. He had come for the Mu family, not to argue with a nobody. This was not part of his plan and would only lower his status.

Before Lady Mu could answer, there was a series of cracking sounds. Looking over, they saw that the third young master of the Yuan family's entire skeletal structure and meridians had been dislocated by Qin Muye.

Neither Lady Mu nor the third young master of the Yuan family had time to react.

'So, he really is a Great Immortal!' Lady Mu's pupils dilated as she looked at the third young master's pitiful state.

"Tomorrow, I want to see my items delivered to the Mu family on time. Otherwise, your Yuan family will no longer be necessary."

"Think you can mess with me? Do you really believe I only know the Dao of Cause and Effect?"

Qin Muye cursed and got up to leave.

The third young master of the Yuan family lay on the ground like a pile of mud, struggling and filled with fear and confusion.

Where did this Great Immortal come from? Weren't they all killed by the Spirit Emperor?

Then, hearing the words "Dao of Cause and Effect," he gave up on the idea of reporting it. If the Spirit Emperor hadn't killed him, their Yuan family would be the ones to suffer.

"Should I give you a hand, Third Young Master Yuan?" Lady Mu slowly got up and walked over, stepping over the man and approaching the box he had placed behind him. She opened it, and indeed, Mu Sang was inside.

Although the man was also a Golden Immortal, he was far weaker than Lady Mu. Therefore, he had to bring Mu Sang along to ensure that if negotiations broke down, he wouldn't be trapped here.

Of course, if the negotiations were successful, Mu Sang would have to be returned to the Mu family.

The Yuan family wanted benefits, not to become mortal enemies with the Mu family.

Insulting, extorting, and killing the legitimate son—these were absolute mortal enmities. Even if the Mu family's foundation might not be as strong as the Yuan family's now, if they went all out, the Yuan family would suffer heavy losses, and other major families would benefit.

So, this was essentially just a test of the Mu family, and they didn't dare to harm Mu Sang.

Lady Mu lifted Mu Sang out and handed him to a servant, then said, "Bring Third Young Master Yuan back to the Yuan family. Remember to ensure that the Yuan family delivers Mr. Qin's items on time, or we won't be able to hold Mr. Qin back."

Wang Kui, seeing this, immediately picked up Third Young Master Yuan and left the Mu family. With his Profound Immortal strength, it would take him only the time of a single incense stick to reach the Yuan family.

There would be no delay.

After they left, Lady Mu was drenched in cold sweat. She hadn't expected today's events to be so complicated.

"This Mr. Qin is truly peculiar," Lady Mu recalled Qin Muye's situation. He was really low-key, methodical in his actions, and avoided using force whenever possible. Even when Mu Sang offended him, he only gave a light punishment. If it were someone else, they might have beaten him to death.

On the other side, Qin Muye left with a helpless expression. He felt incredibly unlucky; the things he was about to secure had gone awry.

If he hadn't taken action, he might have lost them for real.

He wasn't really helping the Mu family; it was mainly for his own benefit.

'Wait a bit longer. Once the Mirror Immortal is formed, even if I am exposed, it won't be a big problem.' Qin Muye's thoughts were simple: he just needed to stay low-key.

As for the Spirit Emperor? Qin Muye wasn't really afraid. Did the Spirit Emperor really think his talent for shielding heavenly secrets was useless? It wouldn't be easy to catch him.

Moreover, the Spirit Emperor currently had many other concerns. He was not only reforming the entire Great Spirit but also ensuring that the cultivation of spirit beasts didn't fall behind. These were not easy tasks.

He might search for Qin Muye, but if he didn't find him within a certain period, the Spirit Emperor wouldn't persist. Once the reforms in the Great Spirit were complete, he wouldn't care about the emergence of new Great Golden Immortals.

After all, he couldn't really block the path to advancement; doing so would cause problems.

So, in the short term, there was no need to worry about the Spirit Emperor. Otherwise, how could Qin Muye have come out so boldly?

It was precisely because the Spirit Emperor was distracted that Qin Muye had enough time to compete for the Dao. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had this plan.

However, the birth of the Dao competition plan was inevitable. After all, refining the spirit and competing for the Dao were plans set by his true self.

Although his true self didn't manage affairs, he was still monitoring the Spirit Realm.

"Alright, don't worry about things you shouldn't." Now, he was just an avatar and didn't need to consider so much. It was better to focus on how to use his protagonist aura to quickly resolve the issue and secure the resources.

This could be considered a minor drawback of the protagonist aura. It would give you opportunities, but it wouldn't guarantee that they would align perfectly with Qin Muye's thoughts.

Sometimes, it might even bring mixed blessings, and he might not be able to control the situation, which could be a pitfall.

If it were a proper protagonist aura, it might bring situations like escaping from death, but Qin Muye's protagonist aura was not so proper. If he couldn't control it, he might be in trouble.

Though being overwhelmed by opportunities might sound absurd, it could really happen to Qin Muye. Otherwise, how could he have suddenly gotten involved in the Yuan family's affairs?
