Chapter 356: Mu Pangshan, the Mu Clan Chief's Recruitment

Imperial capital, Mt. Mupan.

Although winter has not yet arrived, the Mu Pang Mountain is already covered in silver, as if it had snowed heavily all night.

High above the tall snow forest, a few ancient buildings with ostentatious roofs reveal a corner, and dressed in countless ice crystals, they appear even more noble and sacred!

"Mupang Mountain is like this all year round. The Mu family has an ancient ice heritage, and the disciples in the family enjoy the most top-notch ice resources."

Mu Tingying excitedly told him about the Mu family. She could not hide her excitement, as if she was a girlfriend bringing a man back to her parents' home.

"It's one of the three largest clans in the country. It's quite impressive." Zhang Chenran responded perfunctorily.

"When the Mu clan meeting is held, the members are completely isolated and cannot have any contact with the outside world. It starts at 1pm and ends at 5pm."

Nan Rongni glanced at the silly Mu Tingying.

This stupid woman always talks nonsense, and Zhang Chenran doesn't care even if she praises the Mu family to the sky.

"Who should we pay attention to in this clan meeting?" Zhang Chenran asked.

"Because of the Siren's attack, the Mu family, as one of the three major clans in the country, must stand up. Now the Mu family is also very busy. Most of the clan members are dealing with the Siren's affairs. There shouldn't be too many people who need attention. Your aunt will tell you when the time comes." Nan Rongni responded.

"Isn't it just a simple formality?" Zhang Chenran was a little displeased.

"This also involves the interests of our Nanrong family. Please understand. Besides, my aunt also said that she will reward you well afterwards." Nanrong Ni persuaded.

Zhang Chenran nodded:

"Since your aunt said she would reward me, then as the daughter of the Nanrong family, shouldn't you also show some appreciation?"

"Ah?" Nan Rongni thought for a moment and said, "Hasn't my service during this period been enough?"

"Isn't that a manifestation of our love? What does it have to do with the Nanrong family?" Zhang Chenran pinched her face.

"Then what do you want? You can't ask your mother to serve you together, right?" Nan Rongni lowered his head aggrievedly.

Zhang Chenran didn't continue to make things difficult for her: "I haven't heard you call me master for a long time, call me twice and let me hear it."

"Master!" Nan Rongni blurted out without any hesitation.

"Not sexy enough, scream again."

"Master~" Nan Rongni's voice was a little lower and drawn out very long.

"It's sexy enough, but not as good as before."

Nan Rongni's eyes twitched, and she knelt directly in front of him, her face full of desire and her voice said:

"Master, Ni'er wants"

It tasted right. Zhang Chenran's mouth curled up slightly: "Just bear with it."

As he spoke, he took Mu Tingying into his arms and patted her head lovingly.

"Master, can I not call you that in the clan later?" Mu Tingying said.

"Of course you can, but if you say one less word, you will be punished one more time." Zhang Chenran chuckled.

"Well, I'll continue to call you master." Mu Tingying thought about it and still didn't want to accept the punishment.

"That's good." Zhang Chenran held Mu Tingying in his arms and raised his eyebrows at Nan Rongni.

Nan Rongni curled her lips, glanced at Mu Tingying, and began to take off her clothes in anger.

"Your aunt is here." Zhang Chenran suddenly laughed.

Sensing a familiar breath approaching, Nan Rongni's face changed slightly, and he quickly picked up the clothes on the ground and put them on.

"The clan meeting is about to begin, let's..."

Mu Yinfeng was stunned when she saw Nan Rongni hurriedly putting on her clothes as soon as she walked in. She then glared at her secretly:

"The clan meeting is about to begin, what are you doing? When did you become so out of line?"

"Aunt, I..." Nan Rongni wanted to explain but had nothing to say. She could only put on her clothes silently in front of Mu Yinfeng.

"Let's go." Zhang Chenran said to Mu Yinfeng.

Mu Yinfeng nodded slightly and walked in front to lead the way for him.

...…

After walking through a garden halfway up the mountain planted with ancient bamboos, you can see the main building of the Mu family.

As a clan that has settled in the imperial capital for countless generations, this magnificent main building is comparable to an ancient palace.

Towering fences, green slate, and red tiles with a hint of gold.

"It is rumored that the Mu family is like the ancient Chinese royal family. This design is indeed true." Zhang Chenran said with emotion.

This main building consists of more than 20 palaces of different sizes. From the outside, it seems as if you have traveled through the territory of ancient emperors and generals.

Mu Yinfeng took him to one of the palaces.

Although the palace looks like an ancient building from the outside, the buildings are equipped with elevators, floor-to-ceiling windows, floor heating and marble. Every lamp and decoration is extremely expensive.

"Aren't we supposed to be attending the clan meeting? Why are we here instead of going to the main building?"

Zhang Chenran sensed a strange breath, which was strange yet inexplicably familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

"The clan leader wants to see you." Mu Yinfeng said in a low voice.

"The patriarch of the Mu family?" Zhang Chenran suddenly realized. No wonder he felt that the aura upstairs was so familiar. It turned out to be the patriarch of the Mu family.

In the World Academy Competition, the Mu clan leader also appeared with big figures such as Shao Zheng, and he also had several contacts with the Mu clan leader.

The elevator went up to the top floor, where the patriarch of the Mu family, Mu Qian, had already prepared a variety of delicious dishes for them.

"Councilman Zhang, please take a seat!" Mu Xing did not act like a clan leader at all. Instead, it seemed like he was entertaining an old friend whom he had not seen for a long time.

"I'm flattered that Patriarch Mu came to entertain me personally." Zhang Chenran sat down without any hesitation.

"Councilman Zhang, you are joking. When I heard that Yin Feng brought you to Mupang Mountain, as the clan leader, wouldn't it be disrespectful to Councilman Zhang if I didn't come out to greet you?"

Mu Pump was also a seasoned man. He knew how famous Zhang Chenran was now and did not treat him as a junior at all.

In addition to the information he learned from Mu Yinfeng, he would not give up the opportunity to recruit Zhang Chenran so easily.

"Speaking of which, doesn't the Mu clan meeting start at one o'clock? There's only half an hour left. Is it really okay for the clan leader not to prepare for the clan meeting and have dinner with me?"

Zhang Chenran pulled out the chair on the left and motioned for Mu Tingying to sit down.

The latter was ecstatic, but did not dare to do anything out of line in front of the patriarch. He sat obediently beside Zhang Chenran and said nothing.

Mu Yinfeng's face froze slightly. This was the seat she originally wanted to sit, but after Zhang Chenran did this, she suddenly felt embarrassed and reluctantly sat down next to her niece Nan Rongni.

She looked at Zhang Chenran from time to time, and the luster in her eyes dimmed a little. Was Zhang Chenran's previous behavior implying that she was not that important in his heart?

Naturally, Mu Qian took all of this into consideration. He first glanced at Mu Yinfeng, then at Mu Tingying, as if he was thinking about something.
