Versatile Mage: I was reborn as Mo Fan

Chapter 385. The difficulties of the Mu family
After reaching a cooperation with the Dongfang family, Mo Fan learned that the Mu family had invited them to discuss cooperation today.

Precisely because he had already promised Mo Fan, Dongfang Yan indicated to Mo Fan whether he wanted to join.

To put it bluntly, it can be regarded as an acknowledgement of becoming a member of the Mo family.

Mo Fan did not refuse. Although he already owned a large amount of resources, who would refuse more?
He knew very well that in this world where aristocratic families and clans abound and competition is fierce, more resources mean more security.

Afterwards, Mo Fan followed them to the Mu family, and was immediately received with the utmost respect. The spacious and luxurious reception room was filled with a faint scent of sandalwood.

Mu Shan, the patriarch of the Mu family, sat in the first seat, his eyes deep and sharp.

He also greeted Dongfang Yan, Dongfang Mo and others with a smile.

Dongfang Yan is the patriarch of the family, which is why the Mu family is so grand when they come here. Although Mo Fan is famous, it does not mean that the people of the Mu family can recognize him at a glance.

To put it bluntly, Mo Fan does look a little younger.

"I didn't expect that Patriarch Dongfang would come to my humble home in person this time. It really brings honor to our Mu family." Mu Shan said with a smile.

At the same time, he also greeted Dongfang Mo and others.

Of course, Mo Fan's words were regarded as "junior" by him.

Dongfang Yan was originally planning to introduce them, but at this time, Grandpa Mu Shan spoke first: "This time, we have been forced into a dead end. If it were last year, the east had not fallen like this, and we still had hope to invite some experts to jointly drive away the overlord of Sun Ridge. Now it is impossible to invite such experts..."

Seeing the other party say this, Mo Fan stopped Dongfang Yan.

It means to let Mushan speak first.

"The highest temperature of the crater cave can reach the power of a super-class magic. Even if we can successfully go down to the bottom along the outer periphery, the temperature of the outer periphery is unbearable for high-level fire soul-class mages. You previously proposed to let some mages with fire-type summoned creatures do it, but the work underground is not something that can be done by summoned beasts... What's more, we have surveyed and found that there is a kind of fire creature living below. They are extremely difficult to deal with. We have to send a team of high-level mages anyway."

As Mu Shan spoke, one of the Mu clan members said, “Then let a summoning mage control his fire contracted beast to go down first and lay down the space exit scroll. Our team will then use the space magic array to go down together, eliminate those fire creatures, and finally smash the fire shell stone that is blocking us from digging the passage from the inside…”

"The success rate is still not very high. The summoner's contracted beast will most likely not survive. Moreover, space scrolls have always been rare. The people who are teleported down are equivalent to entering a purgatory. The possibility of coming back alive is not very high. If the fire shell stone is not broken, the people who go in will all die in there." Mu Nuxin of the Mu family said.

Mu Nuxin is Mu Nujiao's younger sister, but unlike Mu Nujiao, she has an extremely high status in the Mu family.

"People die for money, birds die for food. We are responsible for paying the money and recruiting some hunters and magicians. I don't believe that no one is willing to do it." Mu Hua, a young man from the Mu family, said.

"I hope the investigation can be more thorough. After all, our plan is just theoretical. It's hard to say what will happen down there. We can pay for it, but we're afraid that it's more dangerous down there than we imagined, and these people have lost their lives." Mu Nuxin said.

"That's better than just waiting like this. It's been delayed for so long. The Zhou family is ready to make a move, the Mu family is swallowing up small clans, and even the small Li family is about to ride on our heads. If this continues, we will soon be reduced to a small place, a remote place, waiting for decline." Mu Hua said in a serious tone. The people of the Mu family suddenly fell silent. Since many places in the east fell, they are now facing the biggest dilemma.

The Sun Ridge of Kunlun Mountain is their best chance. Fire resources are always the most popular. They are not as scarce as thunder resources, nor as abundant as earth and wind resources. Fire resources are immediate and always in short supply. Therefore, the fire veins of the Sun Ridge of Kunlun Mountain can not only help the Mu family get out of trouble, but also break out of the chaos!
In this critical moment of life and death, who cares whether those who go down can survive? Anyway, the money has been paid and the degree of danger has been told to them. Whoever is willing to go can go. If no one is willing to go, they will continue to raise the price.

In fact, if they themselves could not consume this fire vein, they would not have contacted anyone from the Dongfang family.
"We've already raised the price very high. Those hunters and mages are not stupid. They are not willing to go no matter how much money they are offered." said a man in his early thirties.

"How can there be no one? Did someone leak something?" Mu Hua said angrily.

When he posted the reward, he intentionally concealed some things. It stands to reason that someone would be tempted by this guy!
"Brother, I asked the recruiter to write down the details. According to what you said, we were wrong. When the families of the victims come to us in the future, we will be too ashamed to face them." Mu Nuxin said.

"You always make decisions on everything! You always make decisions on everything! Do you want to make our whole family starve to death?" Mu Hua suddenly became angry and said to Mu Nuxin.

The room fell into silence again. No one from the Dongfang side said anything, and no one from the Mu family spoke for a long time.

"If it really doesn't work, we can only choose from the children of aristocratic families. Let's draw up a plan and announce it. Except for the heirs, other children can voluntarily sign up with us. All participants, regardless of success or failure, their families will be supported by us and receive a large sum of compensation. Those who succeed can be directly promoted to members of the clan association and enjoy the treatment of elders." Mu Shan proposed.

They have to fight. They can't just wait like this forever. Outsiders can't take care of them, so naturally they have to send their own people.

"Yeah." Mu Nuxin also agreed with this method.

And just at this moment, Mu Nujiao walked in.

The moment Mu Nujiao came in, the hall fell into silence.
Mu Nujiao is considered to be the core member of the Mu family today.

At such a young age, he is already a super-class magician. With such an achievement, he is definitely treated as an elder in the Mu family.

When Mu Nujiao came in, she saw Mo Fan sitting there. She didn't know much about the family's affairs.

She is only focused on cultivation.

This is also the reason why she came here at this time.

After Mu Nujiao came in, she saw Mo Fan sitting at the Dongfang family's seat.

Immediately, under the gaze of everyone, Mu Nujiao walked towards Mo Fan.

In the past, Mu Nujiao would not have dared to ignore the people around her like this, but after following Mo Fan to Egypt, she knew very well that the family would not have any objection to Mo Fan's situation.
