Chapter 12562 The Blood of the Mu Family
At this time, in the Xuanbing Temple, in the secret realm.
Everyone in the Mu family was in a panic.
We have been trapped here for several days. Although there is food and drink here, and the conditions for cultivation are also good, the question is, how long can the formation outside hold off the enemy?
They could even hear the sound of the formation being broken outside every day.
I guess it won’t be long.
Xiao Lianzhu should still be practicing, so she did not appear.
Mu Xuanyu and other senior members of the Mu family gathered together to discuss countermeasures.
As the head of the Mu family and the master of the Xuanbing Temple, Mu Xuanyu sighed and said, "Are you afraid?"
"Palace Master, of course we are afraid. The formation will be broken soon. When the Leng family rushes in, they will not leave us any chance to survive."
An old man shook his head and said, "Do we really want to destroy the entire Mu family for Xiao Lianzhu?"
"Yes, Palace Master, we all know what the Holy Hall is thinking. They just want to use Xiao Lianzhu to deal with Ling Xiao. Why should we get involved? As long as we hand over Xiao Lianzhu, everything will be fine."
Another person said.
"That's right. The Holy Hall certainly doesn't want the Leng family to dominate alone. We must check and balance the Leng family. So, as long as we cooperate with the Holy Hall, nothing will happen."
The old man from before continued.
Everyone nodded, and it seemed that most of them did not want to ruin the entire Mu family because of Xiao Lianzhu.
"Although Xiao Lianzhu is the Chaos Goddess, she is gifted and has a promising future, but who will be responsible for our future?"
Seeing so many people supporting him, the old man worked even harder.
"Has the Great Elder ever thought about one thing?"
Mu Qi suddenly said in a deep voice: "Since the founding of the Xuanbing Temple, has there ever been a time when we have been bullied? No matter what difficulties we encounter, we have always resisted to the end. Does the Great Elder want our Mu family to become the laughing stock of the entire Northern Frontier?"
When this was said, many people echoed it.
After all, not everyone is a coward. Handing over Xiao Lianzhu would mean they have surrendered and might never be able to hold their heads up again.
"Hmph, Mu Qi, you sound nice, but my Mu family may be destroyed because of your so-called courage. Can you bear this responsibility? It is said that it is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. When you are alive, there is always hope. When you die, there is nothing left."
The Great Elder snorted coldly.
"Great Elder! Are you going to surrender just because you can't win? If you are like this, why are you still practicing martial arts? Is your martial arts spirit so vulnerable?"
Mu Qi sneered.
"Both of you should stop arguing. Both of you have reasons for saying this, but this matter is of great importance and needs to be carefully considered. Don't start an internal conflict first."
An old woman came out to act as a peacemaker.
"I wonder what ideas the Second Elder has?"
Mu Qi looked at the old woman and asked.
The old woman shook her head. What else could she do? Things had come to this point. She either had to fight or hand Xiao Lianzhu over. There was no other way.
"Humph, you're right to listen to me. We can't destroy the Mu family just for Xiao Lianzhu! If you're afraid, I can go talk to the people in the Holy Hall."
The Great Elder snorted coldly and said, "After all, these things are all caused by Ling Xiao. Why should our Mu family bear such responsibility?"
"That's enough, Great Elder!"
Mu Xuanyu's expression suddenly turned cold: "I brought Zhu'er back. Now that something like this has happened, I have an unshirkable responsibility. In order to prevent the Mu family from being destroyed, I will take Zhu'er away!"
This was the result of her careful consideration.
Although she felt a little disappointed, she had to admit that the Great Elder was right. If the Mu family continued to be hostile to the Holy Hall, they would only perish.
But she couldn't accept handing over Xiao Lianzhu.
At the beginning, she took Xiao Lianzhu away from Ling Xiao, but she said that she would train her well and take good care of her. Now, just because a small thing happened, she wants to hand Xiao Lianzhu over?
She can't do it!
What's more, Xiao Lianzhu is a very likable girl, and she already treats her as her own daughter.
Even if she died, she would never hand Xiao Lianzhu over to the temple.
"Master, you don't have to do this. I will leave on my own."
Xiao Lianzhu appeared in front of everyone at some point in time.
Those who said they would hand Xiao Lianzhu over to the church now lowered their heads, feeling embarrassed and ashamed.
"Pearl..."
"Master, I am not a heartless person. You brought me to the Xuanbing Temple, taught me the skills, and even guided me to awaken the power of chaos and protected me from being bullied. I remember everything in my heart."
Xiao Lianzhu smiled and said, "Now that you are in trouble, if I don't stand up, would I still be considered a human being? I, Xiao Lianzhu, am also a member of the sect. Moreover, I have taken up so many resources. It would be unreasonable if I don't do something."
"What a sensible child... But no!"
Mu Xuanyu shook her head and said, "Who do you think I am? You're selling out your disciple just to save your life? I'd rather die than live like that!"
"We are willing to follow the Palace Master and defend the Goddess to the death!"
At least half of the people stood up.
Their eyes are firm and their gazes are sharp.
It seems that he doesn't care about life and death.
"Well done!"
Mu Xuanyu smiled. After all, not all members of the Mu family were cowards.
Xiao Lianzhu was also somewhat moved.
In fact, she had not been a member of the Xuanbing Temple for very long, and she was very happy that so many people were willing to fight for her.
But the more this happened, the more she couldn't let this happen.
"Everyone, there is really no need to do this. My life is Xiao Lianzhu's life, and your lives are also lives. You can't let everyone be harmed because of me!"
Xiao Lianzhu shook her head.
She has decided to handle it alone.
Once upon a time, she was protected by Ling Xiao, and now, she is protected by the Xuanbing Temple.
She doesn't want to live under the protection of others forever. She wants to grow up and stand on her own.
This time, she had to face this disaster.
But the more she did this, the more the people in the Xuanbing Temple felt that she was worthy of protection.
Originally, only half of the people stood on Mu Xuanyu's side, but now, the number has increased a lot, reaching 70%.
Looking at these people, Mu Xuanyu smiled and said, "People in my Mu family still have some blood in their veins. Let's do as I said before. Zhu'er and I will go out, and you stay here. I don't want to lose Zhu'er, and I don't want to lose you either."
To her, both sides are important.
“Maybe there is another way.”
The second elder suddenly said: "We just need to lure Ling Xiao over here, capture him, and hand him over to the Holy Hall..."
"Absolutely not!"
Suddenly, a terrifying aura rose throughout the entire secret realm.
The chaotic energy exploded, and the people around suddenly felt powerless.
Except for a few stronger ones, the rest seemed to have lost all their cultivation in an instant.
It was Xiao Lianzhu. Her original expression became a little scary at this moment: "Whoever dares to attack Brother Ling, I will fight him to the death!" (End of this chapter)
