Mu Fanhai, the Mu Family's patriarch, emerged from the inner courtyard while restraining a young man.
The young man's face was full of defiance.
Yet he was bound tight and fast, unable to move.
Mu Qingyun descended from the void.
He bowed once more toward Chaos and said, "Thank you for showing mercy, Senior."
"Though I did not use my full strength, you are still quite extraordinary.
Before long, you will surely become a Great Emperor," Chaos said.
Its pupils shifted as it turned its gaze toward Mu Zhuo.
"Senior, may I ask what mistake my youngest son has made?" Mu Fanhai asked.
"This is not something you should know," Chaos replied blandly.
Its enormous claw reached down from the void.
Seeing this, Mu Zhuo shouted, "Father, Big Brother, save me!
I don't want to die yet."
"Second Brother, you have always been arrogant and tyrannical.
It was only because the Mu Family stood behind you that you remained safe and sound," Mu Qingyun sighed.
"Now that you have provoked someone you should never have provoked,
I have done all I could. Do not drag our Mu Family down with you."
"Mu Qingyun, you did this on purpose.
What a vicious heart you have!" Mu Zhuo cried.
"Once I die, there will be no one left to compete with you for the position of family head, right?"
"So that is what you think of me," Mu Qingyun said, shaking his head in disappointment.
Looking at Mu Fanhai, he said, "Father, I am tired as well.
I will return to rest. Let this matter end here."
"Qingyun, is there truly no room for reconciliation?" Mu Fanhai asked unwillingly.
"Father, the fact that he has come to this point today
