2605 Unfilial Daughter



Mu Jingfeng waved his hand, wearily gesturing for everyone to leave.

Elder Qing and them still wanted to persuade him, but when they saw him sweep over his indifferent gaze, they couldn't help but sigh. They all walked out while shrinking their necks.

"Xingchen, you stay behind."

Mu Xingchen sat in front of him and did not say anything.

Mu Jingfeng looked at him and asked, "Xingchen, do you think it is right for her to do this?"

"Even though your mother is not your birth mother, she has borne such hardships to raise you. When has she not done her utmost to take care of you when you got sick? Also, your sister Xuan'er respects you the most."

Mu Xingchen remained silent.

"I know your temperament has always been cold, but you are not someone who does not know good from bad either. You must be able to feel that your mother and sister are genuinely and sincerely thinking of you, right?"

"Father, what do you want to say."

"Go persuade your younger sister. I am willing to accept her return home." Mu Jingfeng pinched the area between his eyebrows, looking extremely weary. "But do away with the three kneels and nine bows."

"Is she worthy of so many Mu Clan elders' salutes at her young age?"

"There are more than a hundred females in the entire Mu Clan. Do we also make her grandmother go and kneel too?"

Mu Xingchen was silent. "Father, if the Mu Clan didn't adopt that attitude in the beginning, things would not have developed into this state today."

"If the Mu Clan didn't bring that fake home, we wouldn't have thorouhly infuriated her."

"Father, do you not think that you have to bear the blame with things being how they are?"

Mu Jingfeng's eyes finally flickered. He looked up coldly at his son. "Xingchen, you were born into this clan and grew up in this clan. Your accomplishments today are inseparable from the Mu Clan's nurturing. You should also know that if that unfilial daughter truly oppresses this clan, all the thousands, tens of thousands of clanspeople will get implicated at that time."

Mu Xingchen looked at him coldly. He didn't say anything nor express any opinion.

"Father, do you think what I say has any use?"

"How is it not? You two are brother and sister related by blood. Even you yourself said that you feel that bloodline resonance whenever you walk up next to her."

Mu Xingchen snarked, "So what? In her eyes, I might not even compare to a dog on the street."

"Xingchen!!" Mu Jingfeng smacked the table and shouted, "Why are you belittling yourself like this."

"What I am saying is the truth." Mu Xingchen felt such heartache. "You did not see her expression when she said those words to us in the Listless Pavilion."

"She said, we should choose ourselves whether we want our pride or our lives. She will watch us die one by one."

"Unfilial daughter!" Mu Jingfeng finally showed his wrath!

He slammed down on the table, and the teacups on it also jumped up.

Mu Xingchen looked at his father coldly. He did not continue talking.

From beginning to end, he was roaming about the world like a wandering ghost.

Was he sad?

He was absolutely broken-hearted, alright.

His heart hurt so much, as if someone was cutting at it with a dull knife. He felt like he wanted to cry, but he wasn't able to.

She was clearly his only younger sister related by blood in this world, yet she hated their clan bitterly!

Mu Xingchen walked outside in a daze. He did not know when icy tears fell from his eyes.
