Chapter 44 The triangle is the most stable

The next morning.

Mu Zhian came to Bai Ruoxi's room early in the morning and knocked on the door.

"Come in." The slightly tired voice of the sickly beauty came from inside. Mu Zhian pushed open the door and saw the girl sitting in front of the bed.

She was wearing a white dress, her hair was scattered to her waist, and her lips were slightly pursed.

When Mu Zhian walked to sit opposite him, Bai Ruoxi raised his head and looked at him, and said in a cold and pleasant voice: "Master Mu, is there any news from my father?"

Since returning to the Mu family yesterday, Bai Ruoxi has been worried about the situation of Bai's father. Even though she knew that Gongsun Xiong was in a bad state in the Dragon Head Forest, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Gongsun Xiong was attacked and seriously injured yesterday. He is still lying in bed now. How do you think your father is now?" Mu Zhian smiled.

Hearing this, Bai Ruoxi slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, her eyes quickly showed a hint of coldness, "It's a pity that he returned to the Gongsun family safely."

Mu Zhian shook his head and said, "It was Uncle Bai who let him go back."

"If Uncle Bai hadn't held back, Gongsun Xiong would have been dead by now."

Father Bai and Gongsun Xiong should be equally strong, and Gongsun Xiong suffered huge losses in the battle with the black-robed man yesterday. With a reckless man like Father Bai, if he really killed him, Gongsun Xiong would probably not survive.

Bai Ruoxi raised her head slightly, frowning slightly, "So it was my father who let him go?"

"Why...?"

"It shows that your father is quite smart, rough but meticulous."

Mu Zhian picked up the teacup on the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and said, "Even if Gongsun Xiong died, the Gongsun family would have a second Gongsun Xiong, or even a third one. It's useless for him to die."

How could an ancient family that has existed in Tianxuan City for so long decline because of the death of the patriarch?

If Gongsun Xiong dies, someone will come up to replace him immediately, and maybe he can do better than him.

The current situation is already the best result.

Gongsun Xiong has an inexplicable obsession with power. Even if he is seriously injured now, it is impossible for him to completely delegate power to others. This way, at least the development progress of the Gongsun family can be delayed.

Gongsun Xiong is more useful when he is seriously injured than when he is dead or in his prime.

"How is your physical condition?" Mu Zhian asked.

Bai Ruoxi smiled lightly: "It's okay now. The Qi of Heaven purified the toxins left on my shoulder last night."

As she said, she raised her right hand.

In the palm of her hand, a milky white ball of light the size of a teacup quietly appeared in her hand.

It was the Qi of Heaven.

Mu Zhian stretched out his hand slightly to touch it, and felt a warm feeling coming from his fingertips, which made him squint his eyes comfortably.

Then, with a tone of praise, he said with emotion: "It is indeed a sacred object handed down from ancient times. With this thing, even a pig may be able to enter the Return to Void Realm in the future."

Bai Ruoxi frowned slightly, always feeling that she was being ridiculed.

She looked at Mu Zhian deeply, and then said "hmm" softly.

Then, after a slight hesitation, she said: "If you don't mind, Master Mu, take it away. You need it more than me."

In the past, Mu Zhian wasted too much time in cultivation, but if he could use the cultivation effect of the Heavenly Dao Qi now, he might be able to catch up with the progress of his peers.

Mu Zhian's eyes moved slightly. To be honest, he was indeed interested in the Heavenly Dao Qi.

This thing can allow ordinary people to directly leap over the dragon gate and step into the ranks of geniuses, which is really tempting.

He wanted to grab the Heavenly Dao Qi, but he only grabbed it in the air.

Looking down, the Heavenly Qi had disappeared in his palm, and then sank into Bai Ruoxi's body at a very fast speed.

The two looked at each other in surprise.

"The Heavenly Qi only chooses people with great luck as hosts. It seems that it thinks I am an unlucky guy and refuses to follow me." Mu Zhian couldn't help laughing, but he was not annoyed.

Although he was indeed a little tempted by the Heavenly Qi, Mu Zhian still had some idea of ​​his luck. After all, his attribute as a "supporting role" was still there.

How could a "supporting role", and an unlucky supporting role who was used as a stepping stone at the beginning, attract the Heavenly Qi?

But then again... The Heavenly Qi will automatically be attracted by people with great luck. In other words, for the Heavenly Qi, Bai Ruoxi's luck is actually higher than Ye Yu's so-called "protagonist"?

No... According to previous speculation, it should be simply attracted by the bronze sword.

The more Mu Zhian thought about it, the more fortunate he felt. His own luck might not be very good, but fortunately he was a krypton gold player.

Stopping Ye Yu at the auction house and forcibly buying the bronze piece was the right thing to do.

"Master Mu, what are you going to do next?" At this time, Bai Ruoxi suddenly asked in a low voice.

After these days of getting along, she has subconsciously become a little dependent on Mu Zhian, or trust him unconditionally.

Mu Zhian came back to his senses, thought for a moment, and said: "Senior Sister Lan helped a lot this time. I want to ask her to rest in the Mu Mansion for a few days, and then set off together to Liangyi Sect when the sect assessment comes."

Lan Mulian entered Tianxuan City yesterday and is still living in the inn. Now all the forces from all sides hope to receive her... The Mu family is naturally the same.

However, Mu Zhian didn't have that much thought. He just wanted to receive Lan Mulian. As for whether he could open the small stove or not, it didn't make any difference to him. Anyway, he was just a "recommended student".

Is that the female monk in the God Refining Realm he was talking about... Bai Ruoxi's smile slowly faded a bit.

She lowered her eyes slightly, her dark eyes slightly covered by her long and curled eyelashes.

I don't know why, but I feel a little uncomfortable.

After being silent for a long time, she suddenly asked softly: "What about my mother's side?"

In fact, ever since she discovered Bai Yuanfeng's secret, she had been wanting to ask Mu Zhian what she thought of Bai Yuanfeng in the past few days, but she had never been able to muster the courage to ask.

It stands to reason that they want to annex the three major forces. With the strength of the Mu family, they will kill them all once they are discovered.

She didn't know if Mu Zhian was already considering taking action, or if he had other purposes.

Mu Zhian obviously saw Bai Ruoxi's worry, shook his head and said: "Don't worry, you have to pay attention to evidence when taking action. Just make a random guess and then do it randomly. What if you wrongly accuse a good person?"

"Besides, there are still a lot of doubts about her now."

How could a mere Qi-training monk have the guts to annex three major families?

There may be someone behind Bai Yuanfeng.

Otherwise, this woman is too stupid.

When you think about your enemy, you shouldn't think of them as idiots.

Bai Ruoxi stared at Mu Zhian, her mouth slightly open. She wanted to say that her mother had already entered the room with Gongsun Xiong, could there be any reversal? But in the end she endured it.

After the two chatted for a few more words in the room, Bai Ruoxi got up and left the Mu family because she was worried about her parents.

Mu Zhian did not stop her, but just ordered his servants to prepare a carriage to take her back.

He was also quite curious as to how Father Bai would treat his wife now... It was difficult for him as an outsider to observe, but Bai Ruoxi could.

Watching Bai Ruoxi leave in the carriage, Mu Zhian withdrew his gaze, turned around and returned to the Mu Mansion.

"Is it really okay to just let her go back like this? Aren't you afraid that she will be implicated in the Bai family's affairs and be retaliated by Gongsun Xiong?" A clear voice suddenly came from beside her.

It was Wei Mengrou who followed them like a shadow. She had been following behind the two of them just now, but no one noticed them.

Mu Zhian glanced at Wei Mengrou, who was wearing a yellow dress and had a beautiful face. He shook his head and smiled: "Gongsun Xiong will not do this...at least not in a short time."

Seeing that Wei Mengrou seemed a little confused, Mu Zhian asked: "Suppose something happened between me and Sister Mengrou today that would lead to a close relationship between lovers. You would hunt me down everywhere in Tianxuan City with a sword, causing trouble. Is it known to everyone?”

Wei Mengrou said calmly: "If you really do this, you won't even be able to escape from the Mu family."

She paused and continued: "But... you are right."

"If it's me, I don't want others to know about it."

"This morning, people from the Gongsun family came, and people from the Ye family also inquired at the door, wanting to see you." Wei Mengrou suddenly said again.

"Gongsun Xiong still doubts that the Qi of Heaven is with you."

"Ignore them." Mu Zhian waved his hand, "Don't say that the Qi of Heaven is not here now, so what if it is really here? Can they still press my head and make me spit out the Qi of Heaven? ?”

Even if Mu Zhian is willing to agree, it is impossible for those old people in the Mu family to agree.

"And Sister Mengrou will also protect me, right?" Mu Zhian continued.

Wei Mengrou curled her lips and said, "It's just that Madam specifically told me before she left. It's not that I took the initiative to protect you."

I understand, I understand, this is called tsundere... Mu Zhian nodded without revealing it, changed the topic, and said, "No one has been to the Chenxi Chamber of Commerce?"

"I came, but I didn't ask about the Qi of Heaven. I just sent two bottles of healing elixirs."

When Wei Mengrou said this, there was a trace of confusion in her eyes, and she said softly: "Obviously they should also want the energy of heaven... but they left without asking, which is a bit strange."

"That's not surprising." Mu Zhi'an and the maid walked along the path in the yard.

The beauty in a traditional yellow dress walked beside him. The thin skirt could not hide her two towering breasts, and her waist was swaying from side to side, gracefully and gracefully.

Mu Zhi'an was deeply moved by the hugeness of the maid's heart. He couldn't help but take a second look. Then he looked away without any trace and said:

"The Chenxi Chamber of Commerce dared to attack the Bai family's business before because it knew that the head of the Bai family was seriously injured in an attack, and the Gongsun family was suppressing it head-on. Now that they heard that the head of the Bai family has returned, they will naturally want to take advantage of the situation and give themselves an extra layer of insurance. "

What a shrewd businessman like Mr. Huang of Chenxi Chamber of Commerce fears most is not competing with enemies of the same intelligence as him, but fear of reckless men.

It was just a blow to the Bai family's business, so Bai's father could bear with his anger.

But if you want the Bai family to die, with the character of the Bai family's vulgar martial artist Bai's father, he may dare to break the pot and trade with the Chenxi Chamber of Commerce to the limit.

Businessmen cherish their lives, and what businessmen fear most is also such a vulgar and reckless man.

"In the final analysis, both sides of the Chenxi Chamber of Commerce are placing bets. Whoever is stronger will follow."

"Just the grass on the wall." Wei Mengrou said lightly.

Then he asked: "Are you going to accept their kindness?"

Mu Zhian smiled and nodded, saying: "Since others have come to us with such sincerity, and even don't ask about the matter of the Heavenly Dao Qi, how can we refuse their kindness?"

"So... we want to cooperate with the Dawn Chamber of Commerce?" Wei Mengrou asked.

"Sister Mengrou, you should not know? The triangle is the most stable structure." Mu Zhian popularized some knowledge to the maid.

He paused and continued:

"But the quadrilateral is not very stable."
