Starting from the scattered cultivator family, daily intelligence

Chapter 108, Mu Mengshu is seriously injured
“Tap~Tap~”

Under the dark night sky, the Cen family's carriage sped towards the sacred land of Mangshan. The sound of its journey was exceptionally clear and crisp. The two swift horses pulling the carriage seemed to ride on auspicious clouds, their tails swaying in the wind.

These were not ordinary horses, but two first-tier low-grade demonic beasts, the Cloud-Stepping Steeds.

In less than two or three blinks of an eye, they pulled the Cen family's carriage to the top of Mangshan Spirit Land and entered the area where the Yun family members and cultivators lived.

"What happened to Senior Sister Meiyu?"

In the courtyard where one rests and resides.

Shui Lin'er and the other three women had finished their cultivation and were chatting in the courtyard while waiting for Mu Yunsheng. Suddenly, Zhao Meiyu's expression changed, and she stood up with her Qingfeng sword in her hand.

Shui Lin'er was slightly stunned and puzzled, and asked.

“Someone’s coming, coming from the foot of the mountain,” Zhao Meiyu said solemnly, then looked at Shui Lin’er and the other two women, and said to Bi Lianyue.

"Lianyue, you take Xiaolin'er and Lingxing to find Brother Yunsheng. I'll go see what's going on."

“Tap~Tap~”

At this moment, Bi Lianyue and Shui Lin'er also heard the sound of horses' hooves coming rapidly from outside the courtyard, getting closer and closer.

"Alright, take care of yourself." Bi Lianyue didn't waste any more words. She immediately got up and, with Shui Lin'er and Bi Lingxing, quickly headed towards the Inkstone Meditation Room on the mountaintop.

"Yes, Senior Sister Meiyu, please be careful." Shui Lin'er and Bi Lingxing nodded, and without any hesitation, they set off to follow Bi Lianyue away.

After the three of them left, Zhao Meiyu, holding a sword with a green blade, leaped onto the pavilion and looked toward the direction from which the sound of horses' hooves came.

"Whoosh~" At this moment, the Cen family's Cloud-Stepping Swift Wind Chariot had stopped in the area where the Yun family members and cultivators lived. A woman who looked to be no more than twenty years old jumped off the chariot in a hurry and shouted loudly in a panic.

"Yun Sheng! Yun Sheng! Sheng'er...!"

This woman was Mu Huilan, the biological mother of Mu Yunsheng, who worked as a weaver in the Cen family.

"Aunt Mu?" Zhao Meiyu, who was in the attic, saw Mu Huilan calling out in a panic. Her spirited eyes widened in surprise, and then she quickly went to greet her and called out.

“Aunt Mu, I am Meiyu.”

"Meiyu girl..." Mu Huilan heard the call and saw Zhao Meiyu coming to greet her. She hurriedly went to her and asked anxiously.

"Beautiful girl, what are you doing here? This is the Yun family's sacred mountain, Mangshan. Where is your brother Yun Sheng? Has something happened to him?"

"Aunt Mu, don't worry, Brother Yunsheng is also in Mangshan Spirit Land, nothing has happened to him." Zhao Meiyu quickly took Mu Huilan's hand and comforted her, then asked.

"Aunt Mu, what's wrong? Did something happen? Brother Yun Sheng has been perfectly fine. He was even waiting for you to come to Mangshan Spirit Land today."

When Mu Huilan heard Zhao Meiyu say that Mu Yunsheng was alright, the panicked and worried expression on her face calmed down considerably, and she spoke up.

“Yun Sheng’s second great-uncle…”

"Mother, why are you so late? Where is Second Uncle?"

Mu Yunsheng's voice came from the side as he asked questions and walked towards Mu Huilan, looking at her and the Cen family's swift and elegant carriage not far behind her.

"Auntie Mu!" "Auntie Mu!" "Auntie Mu!"

Shui Lin'er, Bi Lian Yue, and Bi Ling Xing followed behind Mu Yun Sheng. Upon seeing Mu Hui Lan, they hurriedly went to greet her one by one, their eyes filled with shyness and nervousness as they bowed and asked questions.

They met Mu Yunsheng on their way to the Inkstone Meditation Room, and then followed him to this side.

“Little Lin’er, Lian Yue, Ling Xing, you are all in Mangshan Spirit Land too.”

When Mu Huilan saw Mu Yunsheng appear before her unharmed, a smile finally appeared on her face. She greeted Shui Lin'er and the other two women with a gentle smile and asked them to get up.

Afterwards, instead of having a detailed chat with Shui Lin'er and the others, Mu Huilan looked at Mu Yunsheng and asked.

"Yun Sheng, your second uncle was seriously injured by someone and collapsed at the foot of the mountain leading to the Cen family. When Madam Hua of the Cen family returned to the Cen family, she saw the seriously injured second uncle and brought him back to the Cen family for treatment."

"After being treated by Madam Hua, my second uncle briefly regained consciousness and told me to come to the Yun family's sacred mountain in Mangshan as soon as possible to tell you that you are here."

"Yun Sheng, what happened? How come you are in the former sacred land of the Yun family in Mangshan? Where are your father and your great-uncle?"

After asking, Mu Huilan's face showed anxiety and worry again, as she did not see Mu Qinghu and Mu Kehua.

"Second Uncle is seriously injured..." Mu Yunsheng's eyes widened in shock as he looked at Mu Huilan's anxious and worried face and quickly said.

“Mother, the matter of the Yun family’s sacred mountain is too complicated to explain. I will tell you about it later. Father and Uncle are fine.”

"He's just going back to our Mu family's ancestral land. He'll probably be back in three to five days. How is Second Uncle doing now? Did he come to Mangshan Spiritual Land with you?"

Mu Yunsheng asked Mu Huilan, his gaze falling on the Cen family's swift and elegant carriage.

"Your second uncle's injuries are too severe. I can only barely keep him alive. He needs to be treated with healing pills, at least mid-grade first-level healing pills."

From inside the Cen family's luxurious carriage, a charming and alluring voice rang out, followed by a pair of bare, fair feet stepping out of the carriage.

She was the beautiful Lady Cen, whose fame was widespread throughout the Yuqian Mountains.

"I have temporarily protected your second uncle's heart meridian. You can take it and treat him properly," Madam Hua said charmingly, then gestured with her hand.

From inside the Cen family's carriage, a piece of purple silk flew out, supporting the severely injured and unconscious Mu Mengshu, whose face was deathly pale.

"Yes, thank you, Madam Hua."

Mu Yunsheng quickly bowed and walked to Madam Hua's side, taking Mu Mengshu from the purple silk.

"Huilan also thanks Madam Hua. I am grateful for your help in escorting me to the sacred site of Mangshan. After I finish dealing with matters at home, Huilan will visit the Cen family to express my gratitude to you."

Mu Huilan also bowed to Madam Hua and said that Shui Lin'er and the other three girls beside her also bowed to Madam Hua in gratitude.

"It's nothing~" Madam Hua smiled and shook her head, but when she saw the seriously injured and unconscious Mu Mengshu, a trace of worry appeared in her watery eyes.

She had actually been searching for Cen Qingfeng, a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator from the Cen family, who had disappeared without a trace, for the past few days.

"Alright, since everything is settled, I'll head back to the Cen family now. Huilan, I'll have someone deliver your work contract from my Cen family to you in a few days."

Madam Hua continued, glancing at the desolate Mangshan Spiritual Land, now devoid of any Yun family members, her bare, fair feet stepping back into the carriage.

"Thump-thump-thump" Two first-tier low-grade demonic beasts, the Cloud Steeds, pulled the carriage away from the sacred land of Mangshan without any riders, quickly returning to the Cen family in the Yuqian Mountain Range.

"Mother, please stay with Xiaolin and the others for a while. I'll check on Second Uncle's injuries. If you have any questions, you can ask Xiaolin and the others first."

“Sheng’er has been with them all this time.” After watching the Cen family’s swift and elegant carriage leave, Mu Yunsheng turned to Mu Yunsheng, holding the seriously injured and unconscious Mu Mengshu.

“Alright, but Madam Hua said that your second uncle’s injuries can only be treated with a first-grade mid-level healing elixir or higher. Mother only has three low-grade spirit stones on her right now.”

"Mother will think of a solution after dawn."

Mu Huilan nodded in reply, took out three low-grade spirit stones from her person, and handed them to Mu Yunsheng, her brows furrowed with a hint of worry.

She was unaware of the changes that had occurred in the Mu family, or rather, the events that had befallen Mu Yunsheng during this period, which were still in the same predicament as the original Mu family, including the serious injury of Mu Mengshu.

The price of a mid-grade or higher first-tier healing elixir was indeed not a small sum for the Mu family in the past.

“Mother, no need. Sheng’er has a healing elixir of at least mid-grade level one.”

Mu Yunsheng smiled and returned the three low-grade spirit stones that Mu Huilan had handed him to her. Then he nodded slightly to Shui Lin'er and the other three women and held the seriously injured and unconscious Mu Mengshu in his arms.

They rushed to the resting room that Shui Lin'er and the other three girls had cleaned and prepared during the day.

"Sheng'er..." Mu Huilan called out with concern as Mu Yunsheng left, wanting to chase after him.

"Don't worry, Aunt Mu, Yun Sheng will take good care of Second Grandpa Mu. A lot has happened to Yun Sheng these days, and we'll tell you about it, Aunt Mu."

Shui Lin'er and the other three girls, with sweet smiles on their faces, stopped Mu Huilan and then explained to her in a cheerful tone what had happened to Mu Yunsheng recently.

Accompanying Mu Huilan, to the courtyard where they rested and lived.

"Who managed to lay a hand on Second Uncle?"

In the quiet and tidy bedroom, Mu Yunsheng placed Mu Mengshu on the bed and circulated his true energy within Mu Mengshu's body to investigate, his brows furrowing in dismay.

Mu Mengshu's injuries were extremely severe, with broken bones and ruptured internal organs. If it weren't for his Qi Refining Level 4 cultivation protecting his life force and Madam Hua's intervention to protect his heart meridian, he would have died long ago.

Although Mu Mengshu was seriously injured, there were no signs of magic damage on his body, just like a cultivator with a higher cultivation level than Mu Mengshu.

He slapped Mu Mengshu in a fit of rage, disregarding his life or death.

"Could it be him?"

The image of a person appeared in Mu Yunsheng's mind, and his expression turned cold. Without thinking about it any further, he took out a jade bottle from the Seven Star Jade Entanglement, poured out a spiritual pill with strong spiritual energy, and fed it into Mu Mengshu's mouth.

This is the Jade Dew Hundred Phoenix Pill, a first-grade superior healing elixir, stored in the storage bag of Zhong Changmin, a seventh-level Qi Refining cultivator and elder of the Yuqian Mountain Range.

There was only one such pill in the storage bags of Tian Yaozi, Zhong Changmin, and the other two. It was probably Zhong Changmin's life-saving elixir, but for some reason, he died before he could consume it.

After Mu Yunsheng found it in Zhong Changmin's storage bag, he kept it in the Seven Star Jade Entanglement, intending to keep it for his own survival.

"Gulp~" The Jade Dew Hundred Phoenix Pill, with its powerful spiritual energy, turned into a spiritual liquid as soon as it entered Mu Mengshu's mouth, merging into all parts of his body and quickly healing his injuries.

It replenished Mu Mengshu's damaged vital energy and formed a jade membrane on his body to heal his external injuries.

In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Mu Mengshu's pale, aged face regained its color, his breathing became steady, and he slowly opened his eyes. Seeing Mu Yunsheng standing by the bed, he called out to him.

“Yun Sheng…”

"Second Uncle, Yun Sheng is here." Mu Yun Sheng quickly responded, moved a little closer to Mu Meng Shu, and helped him sit up from the bed.

"Haha~ Yun Sheng, it's good that you're alright." Mu Mengshu looked at Mu Yun Sheng, who was unharmed, and a happy smile appeared on his aged face. Then he looked around the bedroom and asked.

"Has your mother arrived? Is this still the sacred land of Mangshan?"

"Second Uncle, my mother has arrived. It was Madam Hua from the Cen family who brought her and Second Uncle here. We are still in the sacred land of Mangshan and have not left yet."

Mu Yunsheng replied, seeing that Mu Mengshu woke up and, instead of worrying about his own injuries, showed a happy smile after seeing that he was safe and sound, he felt a surge of emotion and warmth in his heart, and then asked.

"Who hurt you, Second Uncle?"

The smile on Mu Mengshu's aged face vanished, and upon hearing Mu Yunsheng's question, he lowered his head and did not answer.

"Even if you don't say, Second Uncle, Yun Sheng knows who hurt you. It was Tai Hongfei from the Tai family, wasn't it?" Mu Yun Sheng ignored Mu Meng Shu's silence and spoke, a cold killing intent rising in his eyes.

"Yun Sheng, you must not act rashly. The Tai family is much more powerful than our Mu family. Tai Hongfei also has the cultivation level of the fourth level of Qi Refining. His cultivation method is extraordinary and far beyond what ordinary cultivators like us can defeat."

"Now that our Shepherd family has obtained a sacred land, you only need to cultivate diligently."

Mu Mengshu raised his head, his aged eyes looking at Mu Yunsheng. He quickly reached out and grabbed Mu Yunsheng's hand, anxiously trying to persuade him.

Fearing and worried about Mu Yunsheng, he went to seek revenge on Tai Hongfei.

"Second Uncle, Yun Sheng knows that the Tai family is more powerful than our Mu family, and Tai Hongfei is far beyond Yun Sheng's ability to defeat. Second Uncle, rest assured, Yun Sheng will not seek revenge against Tai Hongfei."

"What our pastoral family needs now is stability."

Mu Yunsheng smiled gently and replied with a laugh, concealing the cold killing intent in his eyes. After calming Mu Mengshu down, he continued to speak to him.

"Second Uncle, please rest well in your room. Yun Sheng will go and inform Mother to come and see you."

After saying that, Mu Yunsheng walked out of the bedroom with a calm smile on his face under Mu Mengshu's gaze. After closing the door, the smile on his face disappeared, and a cold killing intent emerged.

"Tai Hongfei!"

After muttering something to himself, Mu Yunsheng pondered silently for a moment in the corridor outside the house, and then walked towards Mu Huilan, Shui Lin'er and the others in the courtyard.

Indeed, as Mu Mengshu said, the Mu family does not have the means to seek revenge against the Tai family, and he cannot harm Tai Hongfei, at least not before Tianlong has been refined into the Poison Sand Flying Centipede.

He still can't hurt Tai Hongfei.

“What… Sheng’er is following an elder surnamed Zhu to cultivate the art of spiritual cooking. This former spiritual land of the Yun family, Mangshan, was also obtained by Sheng’er through a spiritual cooking duel.”

In the courtyard, Mu Huilan listened to Shui Lin'er and the other three women recount what had happened to Mu Yunsheng in the past few days, and exclaimed in disbelief with a blank expression.

"Mother, Second Uncle's injuries have almost healed, and he has regained consciousness. Would you like to go see him?"

Mu Yunsheng walked out of the pavilion and into the courtyard. He smiled and asked Mu Huilan, who was exclaiming in surprise.

"Second Uncle has woken up. I'll go see him now," Mu Huilan said in surprise. She quickly set off for the pavilion where she was resting. Halfway there, she stopped beside Mu Yunsheng.

Looking at Mu Yunsheng, he asked in disbelief and confusion.

"Sheng'er, did you really follow an elder named Zhu to cultivate the art of spiritual cooking, become a spiritual chef, and even obtain the Mangshan spiritual land through a spiritual cooking duel?"
