After Qing Shandian declared his war flag against the Duan Clan and the Wen Clan, he ignored everyone who was outside the Mu Clan Residence. He immediately turned around, and directed his gaze towards Mu Lingyun. In a relaxed tone he said, "Lingyun, you can go down now."
When the remark ended, Mu Lingyun who was not far from the battle area immediately rushed towards Qing Shandian and directly pounced on him. He said, "hiks.hiks.. An gege, thank you, hiks.. Thank you for saving your Clan."
"That's it. Everything's fine now. Aren't you ashamed of being seen by the rest of your Clan? Hmm?" Qing Shandian said gently as he rubbed Mu Lingyun's head slowly.
Even when he heard his words, Mu Lingyun did not care about it at all, and instead tightly hugged him. Qing Shandian said again, "Lingyun, if you hold me this tight, I will have trouble breathing."
Hearing Qing Shandian's continued words, Mu Lingyun immediately let go of her embrace. However, he changed into hugging Qing Shandian's arm.
Meanwhile, the members of the Mu Clan just stood still in their respective places. They were as if afraid, if Qing Shandian would switch to targeting them.
Seeing this, Qing Shandian could only shake his head helplessly, then swept his gaze across the entire Mu Clan members. In a serious voice, Qing Shandian said, "Immediately the group of all the remaining Mu Clan members in the spacious room. Both the healthy, and the injured. Gather everything immediately."
As soon as Qing Shandian's words fell, not a single person moved. And this made Qing Shandian let out a long sigh. However, before Qing Shandian spoke again, Mu Lingyun gave a sign for him to shut up.
Slowly stepping forward, Mu Lingyun removed her mask, then swept her gaze at the Mu Clan Leader, Mu Yuanzhou, and said, "Leader of the Yuanzhou Clan, if you don't take action immediately, then take action, Your clan will perish in your leadership."
He paused for a moment, then swept his gaze toward his father and mother. He said, "Dad, mother, long time no see. Do you still remember your daughter, Mu Lingyun?"
As soon as the remark fell, Xie Xianyu's tears instantly broke, and he immediately darted, pouncing on Mu Lingyun, hugging her tightly. Between her cries, she said, "Yun'er, where have you been all this time? We never stopped looking for your whereabouts. You're finally back, son."
Mu Lingyun also tightly returned Xie Xianyu's embrace. He said, "I'm sorry Yun'er, ma'am. All because of Yun'er's selfishness being curious about the outside world."
Meanwhile, Mu Yuanli who had been standing beside Xie Xianyu only gently rubbed Mu Lingyun's head. He in a slightly hoarse voice said, "Thank God you're fine. That's what's important now."
After finishing his remark, he turned his gaze towards Qing Shandian. He stepped slightly forward, cupped both hands together, then with a slight bow he said, "Young man, thank you for saving our Clan from destruction."
"That's not a problem for me. What's going to be a problem is if you don't do what I say right away. If you continue to buy time and ignore my words, I can confirm, completely the Mu Clan will be wiped out without a remnant, and that is immediately. Tonight as well." Qing Shandian said in a serious and cold tone. He did not care if destruction was their choice.
Mu Yuanli was perplexed by Qing Shandian's words. However, when he was about to ask, Mu Lingyun immediately broke free from his mother's embrace and said in seriousness. "If the Mu Clan wants to continue living and remain in this world, don't ask much. Immediately gather all the remaining Clan members. For anyone in doubt, be prepared to welcome the day of your death."
Mu Yuanli and Xie Xianyu did not move and looked at Mu Lingyun with puzzled gazes. Seeing this, Mu Lingyun immediately shouted loudly. "Wait especially!! Quickly gather everyone! Stupid dad! Stupid mom! You're all stupid! If you want to die, I won't come. Just die by yourself!"
Hearing Mu Lingyun's cry, they immediately regained their senses and as quickly as possible gathered everyone together without delay, brought only something important, and left the others behind.

While in the Mu Clan Residence was busy gathering the rest of its members, in the Duan Clan it was clearly different. It was visible at this time that the Duan Clan Meeting Hall was crowded with Clan higher-ups. A rowdy voice rumbled at each other, discussing about the declaration of the extermination of the Clan that Qing Shandian had spoken.
"Clan Leader, what should we do now? Should we ignore it? Or is it better to eliminate him immediately?" Said one of the elders in a dark blue robe patterned in gold while staring at a white-haired old man and wearing a dark blue gold-patterned outfit with the plaque of the clan leader hanging on the waist to the left.
Clan Leader Duan did not immediately reply. He swept his gaze across the rowdy room, then said, "You guys are all quiet! Don't freak. You guys should remember. If our Clan is stronger than the handful of people from the Shadow Slaying Organization who attacked the Mu Clan. Moreover, he was just a little brat who did not know the height of the sky. If he wants to come, let him come. That way, we don't have to bother looking for it. We'll eliminate it one way. Do you guys understand?"
"We understand the Clan Leader." Speak to everyone present in the Meeting Hall simultaneously.
"good. So, calm yourself. Gather all our forces, then divide into four groups. Once he comes to enter the Clan, we will encircle him, and eliminate him right then and there." Said Clan Leader Duan adding to arouse their spirits.
"Well, immediately Clan Leader." They were present once more in unison.
"Emmm.. Then this meeting ends here." Clan Leader Duan spoke while waving his hands. And when the remark fell, everyone immediately dispersed themselves out of the Meeting Hall.
...…………………………...
Back to the Mu Clan Residence. Right now, everyone had gathered in one of the vast rooms of the Mu Clan without making a single sound. The atmosphere was completely silent. Many of them were injured, but still within safe limits. For the dead, they were also buried properly.
Qing Shandian, Mu Lingyun, Mu Yuanli, Xie Xianyu, Mu Yuanzhou and the remaining Clan higher-ups stood at the very front. Qing Shandian looked at everyone with a calm gaze, then turned his gaze to the Clan Leader, Mu Yianzhou, and the Elders. Then in a serious tone he said, "Leader of the Yuanzhou Clan, Elders, I will not be stale to you. I'll ask you guys. Do you want to be stronger?"
Mu Yuanzhou and the Elders who heard Qing Shandian's question exchanged a glance for a moment, then Mu Yuanzhou said, "In this world, who doesn't want to become stronger? Of course we want to. But, to become stronger, it was definitely not an easy matter."
Qing Shandian nodded lightly and said, "Right. It is not easy to be strong. Then, if I can make all of you stronger, what kind of recompense would you give me? But you need to know, don't talk about money. Because I'm not short of money at all."
Once again Mu Yuanzhou exchanged glances with the Elders before saying, "If money is no longer the young master's matter, then what can we provide?"
"Of course there's one thing. But this will go back to your decision, agree or not. You guys need to know, that soon, the Shadow Killing Organization and the Duan Clan, will definitely launch a follow-up attack. So, your time is very limited to pustulate. One thing I mean is your loyalty. But, I won't force." Qing Shandian spoke as he looked at them with a serious look.
Mu Yuanli and Xie Xianyu who heard Mu Lingyun's words were shocked. Their bodies were stiff like statues for a moment before it came to a realization. Xie Xianyu quickly said, "Yun'er mother will follow you. Whatever your father's choice. Don't leave from mom." Quite frankly then immediately grabbed Mu Lingyun into his embrace.
"Bright.. Fine, I'll follow you too. You're my little family." Mu Yuanli sighed lightly before replying to Xie Xianyu's words.
"Then, what about you guys? I don't have much time to waste here. My business is not just limited to you but there are far more important things that I have to deal with. And don't think that one day you can betray me. Because even though I look alone, but I don't lack a Saint and Saint King level person by my side." Qing Shandian said casually as if without a burden.
The bodies of Mu Yuanzhou and the Elders shook gently upon hearing Qing Shandian's words. Saint King's? Even if there was only one Saint King, he would easily level the Great Clan as easily as flipping a palm. That's what's on their minds.
"An gege, it seems like they still doubt your words. Why don't you show the Saint King to them? Then ask him to let out his aura so that the parents are slow to think like they're spewing dirty blood out of his body." It was Mu Lingyun who had run out of patience.
"Lingyun, if mom finds out you're talking like this, she'll give you a whip on your back. Do you want to experience it? It feels so good, you know?" Sahut Qing Shandian teased the nosy Mu Lingyun.
Hearing that remark, Mu Lingyun's body immediately shivered. He waved his hand as he said, "No, no.. Lingyun said nothing. Just the origin of the talk."
Qing Shandian did not respond to Mu Lingyun's remark. He casually waved his hand.
"Guusshhh.."
"Yin Xing Yue greeted the young master."
Nodding lightly, Qing Shandian said, "Xing Yue, let out your cultivation aura. Let them know."
"Okay, Young Master." Yin Xing Yue's voice was briefly followed by her powerful aura erupting from within her body.
"Guusshhh.."
"Brukkp.. Bruck.. Bruck.. Brukka.."
As soon as Yin Xing Yue released her aura of cultivation, everyone in the room fell to their knees except for Mu Lingyun, Mu Yuanli and Xie Xianyu who protected Qing Shandian.
"It's enough Xing Yue. You can kill them all for too long." Qing Shandian said quickly when he saw everyone fall down and kneel down. Then turned his gaze to Mu Yuanzhou and the Elders and said, "This will be your last question and opportunity. If you guys don't answer, I will assume that you all chose to be ready to die against the Shadow Killing Organization and the Duan Clan. Do you want to follow me faithfully or not?"
"Well, we will follow the young master faithfully. If we violate our allegiance, let the lightning of the universe strike our bodies until it becomes nothing." Said Mu Yuanzhou who was followed by all the members of the Mu Clan.
"Duarrs.. Duars.. Duars.. Duars.. Duarr.."
As soon as their words were done, the rumbling of white lightning strikes struck nine times. A sign that their speech is heard by the universe.
"Since all of you dare to take that oath, you will be my top priority in addition to my Clan members and the other four." Said Qing Shandian while looking at Mu Yuanzhou and the Elders.
"Xing Yue, please lead them to the Qing Clan Residence. They are part of us with equal status because of their vows. Tell this to my father. He'll understand." Qing Shandian said seriously as he looked at Yin Xing Yue.
"Okay, young master. Xing Yue will execute the orders well." Sahut Yin Xing Yue with a firm tone.
"Guusshh"
"All right, take them all. No one is left behind." Qing Shandian said adding.
"Everyone, please follow me somewhere. You'll be very safe and you'll be strong there sooner." Yin Xing Yue spoke while looking at everyone, before then entering the five-meter wide transparent white portal, and was immediately followed by Mu Yuanzhou, the Elders, as well as the other Mu Clan members.
"Lingyun, you should also follow them. My journey after this will be very dangerous. I'm not sure I can protect you. Moreover, you are also very careless. From now on, you train with my mother. He is a strict and not careless man. When I return, I hope, you grow stronger." Said Qing Shandian gently as he looked at Mu Lingyun with a warm gaze.
Mu Lingyun did not immediately reply, she returned Qing Shandian's gaze for a moment then said, "Well, Lingyun will get better, and fight to become stronger. An gege, you have to be careful." Quite frankly, before closing in on Qing Shandian, then giving a kiss on his cheek. After which, he quickly entered the portal of the soul world, leaving behind his father and mother.
"Dad Li, Mother Yu, you guys should also catch up with the others immediately. There, you will grow stronger faster. And there, there will be many people you can meet. They're a part of all of us." Qing Shandian said as he looked gently at Mu Yuanli and Xie Xianyu.
"Okay, take care of yourself. Don't force yourself with something you can't afford." Suhut Mu Yuanli replied to Qing Shandian's words while lightly patting his shoulder before entering the portal.
"Be careful, An'er." Xie Xianyu said before entering the portal.
