Capítulo 1336: Chapter 1327: A Bit of Harm

“Transaction canceled?” The Li Family Head panicked. The cancellation of this transaction meant that this organization would no longer assist them. Thus, the previously captured important family members were about to be entirely released!

“Wait, wait…the price is negotiable!” The Li Family Head hurriedly said, suddenly sensing a shift from Heaven to Hell with the cancellation of the transaction. If it were canceled, Muyun’s successful succession meant that the first to fall into misfortune would be their Li Family!

“You damn brat, what the hell are you doing!” The Li Family Head’s eyes flashed with fury as he looked at the junior, feeling a mix of emotions, frustrated with his inability to make steel from iron!

Ultimately, the Li Family was directly expelled under the pretext of “obstructing justice,” while Muyun was successfully elected as the next leader amidst the crowd’s support.

Yet, Xiao Yifei couldn’t bring himself to be happy. Meeting the mysterious figure made him feel closer to the truth for the first time. Could the leader of this organization be related to Ci Xin? No wonder when Hua Ci Qianxi was captured earlier, she was merely detained without any harm!

Putting all doubts aside, Xiao Yifei decided to find another opportunity to speak with Ci Xin properly. Right now, helping Muyun establish his authority was more important.

A few days later.

“Well done, Chief Muyun.” Xiao Yifei smiled and said, “Now you’re the leader of the entire Guo A Family.” Just weeks ago, he was bedridden like an invalid, and now he held such absolute power. Who could have imagined? Fate surely plays tricks on people!

“Alright, stop laughing at me.” In the annex at Mu Residence, Muyun said wearily as he looked through various documents, rubbing his temples, “Had I known, I wouldn’t have taken this position; the troubles are endless, waiting for me to fix. With internal and external problems, you better stop standing there and help me look at these files.”

“Alright, alright.” Xiao Yifei said with a bitter smile, “Don’t call on me; aren’t you looking for a personal secretary? Get them to handle it. I’m clueless about these things. Call me for medical issues, but for this, I have no clue at all.”

“Actually, the ‘internal problems’ are relatively easier to solve,” Muyun hesitated before speaking. “Ever since the succession ceremony, the mysterious organization seems to have disappeared like water. Recently, families like the Li Family have also toned down significantly. The once arrogant Li Family members now seldom leave home, making it hard to catch hold of anything.”

“The key issue is the ‘Outer Ring’!” Muyun rubbed his head and said, “Xiao Yifei, you don’t know; all these documents are sent by generals from the border. They say the borders are unstable, with many Guo A Family members wanting to stir trouble amid domestic issues. Ordinary soldiers are no match for these people. There’s Japan’s ninja, samurai, and the empire’s cyborgs, various mutated warriors attacking, dominating battles with superior strength!”

“Now, these generals are begging me for help!” Muyun said with a mournful expression, “Look, many experts from our Mu Residence have already been sent out. Right now, the ones protecting our home are just my grandfather’s two bodyguards…”

Xiao Yifei had long known the Guo A Family border was perpetually unstable, but not to this extent. In a moment of desperation, he suddenly thought of an idea: “How about this, Ancient Martial Earth still has many experts, why don’t we hire them at a high price to solve the external troubles?”

“Ah, yes, yes, yes!” Muyun quickly thought of this idea, believing it to be feasible. In the outside world, there’s hardly any way to resolve the border situation. Perhaps only experts from Ancient Earth can help. They all have Cultivation Methods, and even the least powerful could defeat many people.

“Impossible!” Suddenly, a familiar voice came from outside the door.

Soon after, an elegant woman entered. Her face remained expressionless as before, the visitor was none other than Ci Xin. It had been several days since they last parted.

“Aunt, why are you here?” Xiao Yifei focused intently, positively recognizing Ci Xin, feeling delighted inwardly, as he had been planning to see her these days, and suddenly, she was here.

“Good day, Aunt Hua,” Muyun also greeted politely.

“I’ve come this time to answer your questions, naturally.” Ci Xin said gently. “As for your proposed idea, you should abandon it soon.”

“Why?” Muyun was puzzled, not understanding why Ci Xin disagreed with hiring Ancient Earth experts.

“Indeed, the people from Ancient Earth bear the responsibility of caring for the world and saving the people. But those were distant times when the Seven Ancient Clans held strong obligations and commitments. Each generation would engage in communication with past emperors, smoothing out obstacles that hindered Guo A Family’s progress.”

“However, after successive generations of changes and evolution, today’s Ancient Clans are no longer the Ancient Clans of the past!” Ci Xin said righteously, “Today’s Ancient Clans act out of self-interest, no longer embodying the harmonious coexistence of the Seven Great Clans in the Ancient World.”

“We’ve been guarding the edge of the Ancient World for years, supervising the Ancient World. Now, Xiao Family dominates the Ancient World, even harboring ambitions to rule it. If we let people out recklessly without control, wouldn’t the world fall into chaos then?”

After listening to Ci Xin, Muyun and Xiao Yifei exchanged a glance, simultaneously feeling there was some truth to it. These matters are difficult indeed; the Ancient World’s experts can’t be hired, and now, there’s limited manpower available, perhaps the border issues would continue to be drawn out!

“Then Aunt Hua, do you have any solutions? We urgently need manpower for border actions.” Xiao Yifei asked helplessly, indeed, Xiao Family’s troubles haven’t been resolved, random solutions could hardly solve these issues. This might as well be considered the last resort.

“Summon for peace!” After a while, Ci Xin finally offered a word.

“Summon for peace? Who to recruit?” Muyun wondered, was there any particularly strong expert within the Guo A Family?

“Summon that organization,” Ci Xin emphasized heavily as she spoke.

Upon hearing this, Muyun and Lin Mu understood the gist, realizing Ci Xin’s proposal for solution was this.

“Aunt, forgive my bluntness,” Xiao Yifei suddenly spoke directly, “I don’t believe that organization is any better than the people from the Ancient World, they have committed numerous evils. Now, suddenly placed under watch, would they heed the Guo A Family’s government?”

From Ren Tianye’s words, Xiao Yifei had already understood that this mysterious organization had connections with many high-ranking officials, entangling numerous relationships. If rashly summoned for peace, it could have consequences!

“You leave this matter to me,” Ci Xin suddenly said, “I have some ties with the leader of that organization. If you let me handle the negotiations, there should not be much issue.”
