Zongwu: Starting with Huashan Sect, Zhou Zhiruo breaks off the engagement

Chapter 143: Exposing Gong Jiu, a misunderstanding

"what?"

Qin Fan's eyes were dull and the ring on his finger was flickering.

"Kill Mu Tianbo!"

Mu Jianqiu spoke again, his eyes became evil and filled with scarlet blood.

"Gong Yanqiu!"

Qin Fan raised his head slightly, glanced at Mu Jianqiu, and said softly.

"Gong Yanqiu is in my hands!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Jianqiu's face changed instantly. He raised his hand and slapped Qin Fan in the face.

This sudden action startled everyone.

Lu Xiaofeng was the first to react and flew in front of King Mu.

Qin Fan's empty eyes also regained vitality at this moment. He raised his hand and slapped Mu Jianqiu back.

"Give my mother her life back!"

Mu Jianqiu roared and rushed forward again.

That aura was completely released, and Lu Xiaofeng and others on the side were suddenly shocked.

"Grandmaster? The young prince has the cultivation level of a grandmaster?"

In the past, Mu Jianqiu had always disguised himself very well, and no one had ever guessed that he actually possessed the cultivation level of a grandmaster.

Moreover, his strength is even higher than Lu Xiaofeng's.

If Qin Fan had not been here today, even Lu Xiaofeng and the bitter melon monk would have been in a tough battle.

But this kind of strength is obviously not enough to face Qin Fan.

Qin Fan clasped his hands together and suddenly opened his eyes.

A desolate air burst out instantly.

The grayish-white airflow turned into a thin line and pierced through Mu Jianqiu's chest in the blink of an eye.

Mu Jianqiu raised his hand, his face ferocious, and stared at Qin Fan with wide eyes.

Lu Xiaofeng and the other person standing by were also completely stunned.

From the moment Mu Jianqiu took action just now, they had already realized that Mu Jianqiu's strength was above the two of them.

But even so, Mu Jianqiu couldn't withstand a single attack from Qin Fan.

The difference can be imagined.

Especially the desolate aura emanating from that strand of gray-white silk thread just now, which made Lu Xiaofeng sweat profusely.

He knew very well that if he were in Mu Jianqiu's position, his fate would be even more miserable than Mu Jianqiu's.

Thinking back to not long ago, when he first met Qin Fan in Jiangnan, this guy was just a warrior.

After not seeing him for a few months, this kid has already surpassed me.

This boy's talent is so extraordinary that it is rarely seen in history.

Lu Xiaofeng is familiar with Qin Fan and can be said to have watched Qin Fan grow up.

But precisely because of this, he could better appreciate the terrifying speed of Qin Fan's cultivation.

This guy is simply the chosen one.

"Qiu'er!"

King Mu shouted, waking everyone up.

With a sad face, he hugged the seriously injured Mu Jianqiu, pressed the wound on Mu Jianqiu's chest with trembling hands, his eyes full of love.

But at this moment, Mu Jianqiu gathered all his strength, raised his hand and pointed directly at King Mu's eyebrows.

Fortunately, Lu Xiaofeng was quick-witted and quick-handed, and raised his hand to catch the other person's finger.

Mu Jianqiu's eyes were full of hatred as he stared at his father viciously.

"Qiu'er..." Mu Tianbo cried softly but said nothing.

"Lord Mu, what on earth is going on?"

Lu Xiaofeng stared at Mu Jianqiu with vigilance. Although Qin Fan seriously injured this guy, he did not take his life.

Qin Fan knew very well that Mu Tianbo attached great importance to this son. Even though Mu Jianqiu hated him to the core, he did not want to kill the child.

Qin Fan naturally would not be the bad guy.

Mu Tianbo waved his hand and called the servants to carry Mu Jianqiu away to heal his wounds, and then brought a few people to the hall. After dismissing the servants, Mu Tianbo spoke.

"Thank you all for what I have done just now! It is my fault for not disciplining my son well enough that he did such a thing!"

Mu Tianbo looked at everyone with a guilty look on his face.

"Prince Mu, if you have something to hide, there is no need to explain!"

Qin Fan looked at Mu Tianbo and reminded him.

Hearing this, Mu Tianbo looked at Qin Fan deeply and smiled bitterly.

"I'm afraid Brother Qin has already known this! You are all my saviors, so there is no need for me to hide this from you!"

"I have seen everything this kid has done over the years. I can understand why he hates me. After all, his mother died in my hands!"

Hearing this, Lu Xiaofeng and the others were stunned.

Everyone knows that Prince Mu only married two princesses in his life, one of whom died many years ago.

But no one expected that the princess would die at the hands of Prince Mu.

"Yanqiu is my first princess. She followed me since she was young. But later on, I found out that she was a spy for the Liao and Jin dynasties. Maybe she had feelings for me, so after her identity was exposed, she chose to commit suicide!"

"He committed suicide right in my arms!"

"Qiu'er saw that. I know that in Qiu'er's eyes, I killed his mother, but I dare not tell him the truth..."

Mu Tianbo said this, looking at Qin Fan and others with pleading eyes.

Everyone understood Prince Mu's thoughts. Once this matter was leaked, Prince Mu's palace would inevitably be implicated.

Princess Mu is a secret agent of Liao and Jin. This is a big deal.

In the lightest case, the person will be demoted to a commoner, and in the worst case, the entire family will be executed.

Perhaps it was for this reason that Mu Tianbo would rather suffer injustice and be hated by his own son than tell anyone about it.

He may not care about his throne, but for the sake of this family and his children, he still takes on all of this.

Even after he discovered Mu Jianqiu's secret deeds, he just turned a blind eye.

Perhaps he thought about handing his life over to Mu Jianqiu to resolve the other party's resentment.

If Qin Fan hadn't been here today, Mu Jianqiu might have succeeded.

But now the truth had been revealed, and he just wanted Qin Fan and others to help him keep the secret.

Lu Xiaofeng and his friends understood King Mu's thoughts very well.

Prince Mu’s palace is a king of the opposite sex and is not valued by the court.

For many years, they have been guarding Shanhaiguan alone and have shouldered too much.

Lu Xiaofeng and the others all knew very well that Prince Mu’s Mansion could not collapse.

If Prince Mu's Palace falls, the gates of the Ming Dynasty will be wide open, and the Liao and Jin armies will march straight in and approach the capital.

"Your Majesty, no one else will know about this!"

Lu Xiaofeng spoke and glanced at Qin Fan.

Only at this moment did he understand why Qin Fan asked Mu Tianbo not to tell anyone. Perhaps keeping this secret was the best option.

But Prince Mu still chose to believe them, so they naturally had to live up to this trust.

"Thank you, thank you all!"

Mu Tianbo stood up and bowed to several people.

At this moment, the secret that had been suppressed in his heart for many years was finally revealed, and he seemed to have put down a heavy burden.

Although it would need to be kept secret in the future, he finally saw the trust of these people.

Mu Tianbo stood up and looked at Qin Fan with a little apology.

"Brother Qin, thank you so much for this. I am sorry for you and for causing you to be implicated!"

"Your Majesty is a man of honor. I naturally don't want you to be in danger. But it's just a small favor. Your Majesty, don't worry too much!"

Mu Tianbo nodded slightly, but looked hesitant.

"Qiu'er's injury..."

"Don't worry, my lord. The little prince is fine. It's just that I'm afraid I won't be able to practice in this lifetime!"

"That's good...that's good!"
