186: The maidservant serves her master during his bath...
At Mandarin Duck Tower.
"Sister, is he really Young Clan Master Shen!?" Mu Xiaoxiao asked, still looking shocked and unable to believe it.
Mu Wanqing smiled gently, stroked her head, and said, "You, you're always causing trouble, but this time you've performed a great service for the Mu Family. Think about what you want; Father will give it to you."
The mere fact that Mu Xiaoxiao was the first to make contact with Shen Nian and was able to eat with him was enough.
"Ah?" Mu Xiaoxiao looked confused.
Immediately after, Mu Wanqing looked up at the somewhat dazed Woman in White Robes. A flash of shock crossed her eyes, but it was quickly suppressed.
"Miss, would you like to go to the Mu Family to rest for a while? After Lord Shen finishes his business, I will take you to see him," Mu Wanqing said in a clear, melodious voice.
"Miss?"
"You can tell I'm a young lady?" Jiang Churan was taken aback. She had just been thinking about where to find Shen Nian. After all, Sword Mother had strongly insisted that she spend more time with him. Plus, she really missed the few dishes Shen Nian had cooked himself, which was why she had followed him to the Upper Realm.
"Sword Mother, I'm wearing men's clothing, how is this possible?"
The Nine Tribulations Sword Spirit was closing its eyes inside the Sword Pagoda, indicating it did not want to explain.
With a disguise like yours, only you wouldn't be able to tell.
Mu Wanqing chuckled, her eyes filled with tenderness as she looked around, and said, "The young lady is so beautiful that even in men's attire, it is not difficult to tell."
"*Sigh*," Jiang Churan let out a helpless sigh. She then looked hesitant, glancing at the food on the table she hadn't finished yet, and said, "No need. I'll just wait here. It's perfect since I haven't finished all these dishes yet."
Mu Wanqing didn't quite know how to respond; this was the first time she had met such a strange young lady.
However, after seeing the spirited expression on Jiang Churan's Face as she looked at the food on the table, she tentatively said, "Young lady, the Heavenly Wood Pavilion also has top-tier delicacies, which are even better than those at the Mandarin Duck Tower. How about..."
"What are we waiting for? Let's go, let's go!"
"Uh..." Mu Wanqing was stunned.
Meanwhile.
In the main hall of the Canglan City Lord's Mansion.
Shen Nian sat alone in the seat of honor. Two figures stood in the hall, with Shen Yi standing there expressionlessly.
"Lord Shen, should your subordinate send a message to the Wang Family of the Central Divine Continent regarding today's events?" Mu Feng asked after some thought.
The meaning behind his words was simple: inform the Wang Family of the whole story. After all, a member of the Ancient Desolate Families had died here. Although Wang Yuan had been the one to strike first, after looking into it, it seemed his own daughter had been the one to belittle Wang Teng first. In terms of reason and sentiment, it should be mentioned.
At the very least, doing so would be giving the Wang Family some Face.
Although the Shen Family was the strongest, it had not yet reached the point where it could ignore all the top powers of the Human Race.
Of course, there was the most important point. What Mu Feng worried about most was the Northern Emperor, Wang Teng. If the young leaders of the two great families were to become enemies, it would not be a good thing...
Once these words were spoken, although there was no change on Shen Yi's Face, his eyes couldn't help but sweep a glance at Shen Nian.
Because of his orders, he had to be loyal to the person in front of him, but in his heart, he had not yet been completely conquered. Those with high talent were always arrogant; how could they truly be willing to submit to someone mediocre?
"Send it," Shen Nian replied softly.
Mu Feng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and laughed heartily, "Lord is wise."
Shen Yi's expression remained cold and silent, but a flash of disappointment crossed his eyes.
"Tell the Wang Family to have their Young Clan Leader, the one with the bump on his head, come and kneel before me within three days to apologize for his brother. Then, this matter will be dropped."
After Shen Nian's words were spoken, the smile on Mu Feng's Face gradually froze, turning into a look of astonishment.
"My Lord, are you serious?" Mu Feng asked in disbelief. That Wang Teng was a figure on the Heavenly Ranking, possessing a shocking record of killing those of the Wang Clan across realms. He was currently a Peak Void Return Third Layer great cultivator and could step into the Fourth Layer at any time.
Looking at Shen Nian, although he was very powerful and was already at the Void Return First Layer with extremely fierce combat power, the gap was still very obvious compared to that.
To provoke a Young Clan Leader like this was simply...
It was no different from issuing a declaration of war!
After all, which Young Clan Leader of the Ancient Desolate Families wasn't a prominent figure? Who could endure this humiliation?
Even Shen Yi looked at Shen Nian with a hint of disbelief in his eyes.
Shen Nian just took a deep look at Mu Feng without speaking, but the pressure of a superior unconsciously emerged from his brow. At this moment, he was not the calm and composed Sword Immortal in white, but an emperor.
Seeing his posture and expression, Shen Yi was somewhat moved, and his heart gained a bit more genuine recognition for Shen Nian.
Mu Feng suddenly felt his scalp tingle, just as it had when he met the Shen Family Old Ancestor years ago. He quickly cupped his hands in a respectful gesture and said, "This subordinate understands!"
Just at this moment.
A figure suddenly appeared in the main hall and knelt on one knee.
"My Lord, this is all the information regarding the Sun Moon Sect and the Heavenly Nether Hall in recent years, including all the actions of Meng Hao and Jiang Qing."
"Meng Hao of the Sun Moon Sect has lax Sect rules and has accepted countless Disciples, leading to an uneven quality among the Sun Moon Sect Disciples. Although they have the largest number of people among the Three Sects, they also have the most scoundrels. He has been in seclusion for years and has stolen Spirit Medicine from Canglan City several times to prolong his life, but he has no ulterior motives and is loyal to the Shen Family. By crime, he should receive three years of thunder punishment, but he also has merits; he once beheaded a Void Return Third Layer Wang Clan great demon at the Heavenly Abyss, so his merits and demerits cancel out..."
"Jiang Qing of the Heavenly Nether Hall abused the resources within the hall to forge a dao palace, reached into many forces in Canglan City to divide resources, and used her power to mobilize the Heavenly Nether Hall to search for Materials for her dao palace. For nearly a hundred years, the Jiang Clan where Jiang Qing is located has been protected by the Shen Family, enjoying the best resources in Canglan City all year round. Many maniacs within the clan have been suppressed by her. Starting from the year before last, she separately pledged loyalty to the Jiang and Wang Ancient Desolate Families, leaked three secrets of different levels from Canglan City, and today despised the Lord's dignity. Without the Lord's order, she left privately to contact the Wang Family at the Heavenly Nether Hall. By crime, the Jiang Clan should be wiped out, but she also has merits; she once went to the Heavenly Abyss to kill demons and beheaded twelve Soul Transformation great demons."
"This subordinate has already sent people to the Heavenly Nether Hall to capture Jiang Qing and her clan."
A Jade Slip floated towards Shen Nian. Shen Nian reached out and gently grasped it, and a large amount of information flooded into his mind. These were all the pieces of information just collected.
In the Eastern Profound, the Shen Family's shadows were everywhere; as long as he wanted, he could summon them at any time.
This was a unique ability of the Young Clan Leader.
This made a look of shock flash in Mu Feng's eyes.
When!
Was it just now?
Lord Shen had already started investigating the two Sects through voice transmission?
"Let Meng Hao go back and rectify the Sect's style. If there are any more fools or idiots, tell him to get lost and stop being the Sect Master. By the way, tell him that if he can behead a Void Return Fourth Layer Wang Clan great demon, I will reward him with a dao palace divine object, allowing him to enter the sixth layer of the dao palace."
"As for the Heavenly Nether Hall..." Shen Nian's eyes narrowed slightly. According to the information, this hall was founded by Jiang Qing three hundred years ago, and many people were loyal to her.
"Forget it..."
"Wipe it out completely. The innocent Disciples and Elders will be divided into two groups and incorporated into the Heavenly Wood Pavilion and the Sun Moon Sect. As for the resources previously controlled by the Heavenly Nether Hall, hand them over to the Heavenly Wood Pavilion for safekeeping."
The black shadow respectfully said, "As you command!"
With a thud.
Mu Feng knelt on the ground and kowtowed excitedly, "Mu Feng thanks the Lord for the reward!"
What he was most excited about was not the reward, but the Shen Nian of today. Was this still the same arrogant Young Clan Master Shen who couldn't do anything??
Even Shen Yi showed a hint of surprise.
Immediately after.
The two withdrew, and Shen Nian began to ponder.
"With this, that Wang Teng will definitely come to find me, and the plot should be activated as well. I'll have more preaching value..."
He didn't say that to show off, but for the preaching value!
Immediately after.
Just as Shen Nian was wondering whether to leave, he saw a figure, dressed sexily and enchantingly, carrying tea, walking with lotus steps, her chest as white as mutton-fat jade.
"Servant Girl Wanqing greets Master."
"Servant Girl will pour tea for Master first."
"After drinking the tea, Servant Girl will serve Master a bath..."
