?66: 066: The Energy of the Shangguan Family 66: 066: The Energy of the Shangguan Family For the safety of Mu Qingwan, Tang Feng suppressed the urge to meet her.

    He planned to follow her from a distance and secretly protect her, when he discovered something interesting—there were quite a few Innate Masters around her, though at the beginner level, they were still quite formidable.

    Were they her family members?

    Why hadn’t he noticed these people at the cemetery?

    Tang Feng thought it over and over and came to one possibility: they probably hadn’t assigned protection before because they didn’t take it seriously enough, but now, they had changed their minds, and it was highly likely that something had happened to the Mu Family.

    Indeed, not long after Mu Qingwan arrived in Su City, Tang Feng saw her leaving the hotel with her luggage.

    He followed the taxi all the way to the airport and became even more certain of his guess after seeing her go inside.

    Before boarding, Tang Feng made a phone call.

    The situation with Mu Qingwan wasn’t looking good.

    Despite her efforts to control it, Tang Feng still detected something off in her voice.

    “Xiao Feng, I’m in Su City now, and I’m fine, you don’t need to worry.”

    “Sister Wan, you must take care of yourself.

    Don’t overwork yourself.

    Call me if anything happens, and don’t conceal anything from me, you know what Xiao Feng’s capable of,” Tang Feng spoke through Mu Qingwan’s words.

    Unfortunately, she was shrewd and wouldn’t reveal much.

    Helpless, Tang Feng exchanged a few inconsequential words before hanging up.

    It seemed he would have to make a trip to Jinhai City himself to help resolve Mu Qingwan’s problems.

    Remembering Shangguan Tianyu’s prowess, although he held him in disdain, he wouldn’t be careless now, as there were plenty of examples of ‘The horse stumble’ incidents.

    Once in the Mortal World, he had to understand some rules; it was entirely different from training in the sect, involving more complex issues and more troubles to face.

    With his former temperament, he definitely wouldn’t have bothered with meddlesome matters or entangled with so many women; becoming stronger was his only goal.

    In his current phase, however, he could discover many interesting things and had learned much about human relationships, which greatly helped him, especially in terms of mental growth, bringing indescribable benefits.

    In less than two months, he realized he had been a fool before.

    Incapable of utilizing geographical advantages, uniting friends, or assessing the situation, no matter how strong, it didn’t help, leaving perhaps a legend, but not respect.

    The simplest trait of a respected high power was often to assist those in danger, eradicate evil, and be skilled in enhancing one’s reputation.

    Just like a large tree, it cannot lack roots, branches, or leaves.

    Becoming a towering tree standing between heaven and earth involved many factors.

    That led him to the idea of subduing Mei Ling; those who do great things often don’t do them by themselves, knowing how to use others is the mark of the strong.

    Going to Jin City from Su City by car would take a day, and Tang Feng could use it to enjoy the scenery along the way.

    And also see how vast this world was.

    Currently, he could only detect things within a kilometer, but after breaking through to the Gathering Spirit Realm, he could detect things within ten kilometers.

    After Foundation Establishment, he could detect things within a hundred kilometers.

    After reaching the Golden Core, he could detect things within a thousand kilometers.

    As long as his cultivation continued to rise, one day he could control this planet.

    Then step out into space, go to other planets to find Ancient Transmission Arrays, Tang Feng had no doubts about this.

    Since discovering that Earth had small secret realms, he had speculated about the existence of cultivators, although these cultivate could just be minor practitioners in the Gathering Spirit Realm.

    Given the spiritual energy on Earth, producing any powerful Cultivator seemed unlikely.

    Not everyone is like Tang Feng who could practice alchemy, and it’s incredible to even reach the Foundation Establishment with such scant spiritual energy.

    All along the way, Tang Feng continuously reflected and planned for future development.

    A day later, the car entered Jinhai City, an even more dazzling coastal city.

    It happened to be nighttime when Tang Feng arrived, and the beautiful night scenery shocked his soul.

    This is the power of mortals, truly impressive.

    During these days, he learned about airplanes that could reach the sky, and just by this, mortal thought was not inferior to practitioners.

    On the contrary, in some aspects, it even surpassed them.

    Human wisdom is boundless, no matter the level, there will always be unbelievable miracles.

    Creativity and imagination are indeed terrifying.

    Tang Feng didn’t know where the Mu Family was located, but it wasn’t difficult to find, considering the Mu Family’s strength in Nanzhu, their stronghold in Jin City must be even stronger.

    Tang Feng first found a hotel to stay in, and then proceeded to gather some information online.

    As expected, a major incident had occurred in Jinhai City.

    The old master of the Mu Family was in poor health and could no longer manage the Mu Corporation’s operations.

    As a result, several sons began to fight for power, but the infighting gave other corporations a chance to take advantage, posing a risk of the Mu’s being taken over.

    This was a major disadvantage of family-run businesses; if one falls and there is insufficient control, the consequences can be dire, possibly leading to its collapse at any moment.

    The Mu Family’s marriage alliance with the Qi Family, though not extensively covered in the reports, still caught Tang Feng’s attention.

    One important reason Mu Qingwan had remained single was her refusal to submit to her family, because she had a grandfather who doted on her, giving her the freedom to create her own sky.

    Now, for her grandfather, it was very possible she would agree, and Tang Feng’s expression was grim.

    Sometimes, women do very unexpected foolish things.

    Tianqi Hotel, December 3rd, isn’t that the day after tomorrow?

    No wonder Sister Wan was hesitant and in such a hurry.

    Fine, I want to see who dares to target Sister Wan.

    Since Tang Feng had come, he naturally wouldn’t let the Qi Family succeed.

    Having located the Mu Family residence, Tang Feng transformed his appearance into that of a white-haired, elderly man, and then appeared at the entrance of the Mu Family home.

    “Old Master, there is an elderly gentleman at the door claiming to be an old friend of yours.

    Would you like to see him?” the butler asked, standing aside and looking at Old Master Mu.

    “An old friend?

    Please let him in to see.” Mu Chengzong indeed couldn’t recall any old friends, considering most of them had already passed away.

    Upon seeing Mu Chengzong, a gleam flashed in Tang Feng’s eyes.

    Indeed, this man’s life was nearing its end; he appeared very listless and indeed had only a few days left to live.

    “Old sir, we seem not to know each other, do we?” Mu Chengzong could not recall any familiar scenes, and he was quite confident in his memory.

    “Not knowing me is no matter.

    You have good fortune to meet a noble person, and just as I was passing through, I can help you through this crisis.

    Of course, this concerns your granddaughter’s future.

    Do you understand what I mean?”

    “Are you saying that my granddaughter can change my lifespan?”

    “Correct.

    Your granddaughter is invaluable; she has found her True Son.

    It is crucial not to mess with her matters, or she will face divine retribution,” said Tang Feng.

    “To think such matters exist.

    Though I am usually skeptical, what I care for and cannot let go of is her.

    Please, old sir, provide some guidance.”

    “It’s not so much a matter of guidance as it is that everything originated from you and should likewise end with you.

    This pill here can exchange for ten years of your life.

    Choose wisely.” Having understood that Mu Chengzong was intelligent, Tang Feng didn’t waste more words and simply departed.

    Mu Chengzong had the butler see him out, but when the butler went to the door, Tang Feng had already disappeared, leaving the butler quite frightened.
