Phoenix Cry Firmament

“What did you say?”

Xiao Tian Yu’s expression darkened, a layer of killing intent displayed on his handsome face. He turned his head toward the crazed Mu Yi Xue with a ruthless smile.

He lifted his hand lightly… A sharp wind unknowingly arose and struck toward Mu Yi Xue. She was sent flying backwards and struck against a wall, blood instantly gushing from the back of her head.

A jade appeared in Xiao Tian Yu’s hand.

It was the jade that symbolised the young head of the Xiao family.

He looked coldly at the pale Mu Yi Xue with killing intent on his face and said, “Look carefully at this. We are not imposters of the Xiao family. We, the Xiao family, do not impersonate people, yet, there is someone else that had impersonated being a life saver…”

Xiao Tian Yu turned his head toward Mu Ting Er and saw that her body visibly shudder.

“It is such a pity that the head of the Mu family was kept in the dark all these years. If it wasn’t for us searching for our daughter, we wouldn’t have investigated these matters. The so-called life saver from the past was just someone that had created a scene and acted accordingly in order to give his daughter a good future.”

The man’s lips curled up into a smile, but Mu Ting Er’s body shuddered instead.

An intense feeling of fear permeated her heart…

Mu Qing’s body stiffened as he looked with disbelief at the daughter he’d dearly doted upon for so many years. “Mu Ting Er, what is going on?”

He gritted his teeth, his voice filled with intense hatred.

Mu Qing had indeed done things that wasn’t good, but he was a rare, filial son that respected and loved his mother dearly. They had gone on a scenic trip and met with mountain bandits around sixteen years ago. If it wasn’t for Mu Ting Er’s blood related father who helped them, his mother would have died at that time.

It was precisely due to this that he’d doted upon and loved Ting Er.

It was also due to this incident that after his mother returned to the manor, her mentality became unstable due to the excess scare and fright. She had sustained this for two years before passing away.

Who knew that all of that was just Mu Ting Er’s act?

It was laughable that for such a daughter he’d given Mu Ru Yue up and abandoned the chance to be associated with the Xiao family of Sheng Domain. How could he not loathe her?

“Mu Ting Er, give me an explanation!”

Mu Qing clenched his fists tightly, the vein at his temple bulging out slightly.

“Father.’ Mu Ting Er’s body shuddered before she bit her lip and looked at Mu Qing pitifully. “Father, I didn’t. I really didn’t. This is…”

“Are you trying to say that it is the Xiao family who are lying or had investigated wrongly?”

A mocking smile slowly appeared on Mu Qing’s face. With a hate-filled gaze, he said word by word, “The Xiao family is not as simple as you think! They don’t need to speak this kind of lie, nor would they investigate wrongly. Mu Ting Er, it is all you, this bitch’s fault that I fell to this stage today.”

This was right, it was all due to this bitch.

If it wasn’t for her, Mu Ru Yue would have already married Ye Tian Feng and wouldn’t hate him to his bones. The Xiao family would have also thanked him for helping them raise their daughter for sixteen years.

But now, everything was ruined due to Mu Ting Er!

Pa!

A crisp slap struck viciously on Mu Ting Er’s yellowish and thin face. But Mu Qing wasn’t appeased so he lifted his leg to kick her a couple of times. It was as though he were relieving his anger on her.

The pitiful Mu Ting Er didn’t have any chance of fighting back and could only grit her teeth and bear Mu Qing’s oppressive beating.

She hadn’t legitimately gained her identity as the young mistress of the Mu family, so did she have to return it today? She couldn’t stand it. Mu Ru Yue leaped to become the daughter of Madam Sheng Yue while she had to suffer such mistreatment.
