Every Mu Clan meeting was very strict and serious. Every member of the clan had to obey the rituals and ceremonies that were planned. Even those who had no right to take part in the meeting had to wait outside the room if they did not have any urgent business.
While a meeting took place, the members of the clan were forbidden to contact outsiders. They also had to make sure no one interfered with the meeting.
The monthly meeting was scheduled to last from one to five in the afternoon.
When the door of the room opened at the end of the meeting, the people who were closely related to the clan would gather around their representatives and ask whether they had managed to convince the clan to allocate more resources for them, if the clan had assigned them the positions they had striven to gain for years, or if they were being punished for the mistakes they had committed in the previous month.
Many people called the Mu Clan the Ice Element Dynasty of the country, as their clan meeting was similar to the morning assembly of the officials before the emperor during the era of ancient dynasties. The people involved in the meeting would dress nicely and prepare their speeches for the meeting. They would be mindful of their actions and words while competing for the resources allocated during the meeting.
The meeting today had not started yet. The participants were having lunch in the Clan Hall to prepare for the meeting in the afternoon.

“What did you just say? Mu Ningxue has already forced her way to the main buildings?!” Mu Feiluan lost his temper after hearing the update from his men.
Mu Feiluan was one of the elders of the clan, in charge of the clan’s internal affairs. He was solely responsible for the arrangement, discipline, training, and punishment of the young disciples.
The Mu Clan had too many branches and vassal clans. Not every elder was familiar with the details of what had happened to Mu Ningxue. It was Mu Feiluan who had the most say in how the clan dealt with Mu Ningxue.
Thus, it was Mu Feiluan who had decided to cripple Mu Ningxue’s cultivation and expel her from the clan!
Pan Xi was Mu Feiluan’s subordinate. He had chosen Mu Ningxue when she was still in Bo City and recommended her to Mu Feiluan. Mu Feiluan used to think Mu Ningxue had the potential to lead the new batch of disciples, and had treated Mu Ningxue like a pearl in the palm. Many young disciples had been jealous of her.
If Mu Feiluan decided Mu Ningxue had to go and have her cultivation taken away, Mu Ningxue was not allowed to resist. Everyone had to obey his orders!
It was also Mu Feiluan who had brought Mu Zhuoyun to Mu Clan Mountain.
However, the situation had now exceeded Mu Feiluan’s expectations.
First, Mu Ningxue had managed to retain her cultivation. Second, Mu Ningxue had never surrendered herself and asked for the appropriate punishment so she could return to the clan. Lastly, Mu Ningxue was not defeated at the entrance to the clan. She had reached the main buildings instead!
She would soon be at the Clan Hall if she went only a little deeper!
If Mu Ningxue reached the Clan Hall, the Patriarch was obviously going to scold Mu Feiluan and hold him responsible. He would lose a lot of influence in the clan meeting!
Most importantly, Mu Feiluan had many powerful Mages under his command. How had they failed to stop the petty woman?
Were they trying to make him the laughing stock of the clan and ruin his reputation?!
“Why did I even bother taking care of Hou Ze? He can’t even bite the person I want him to!” Mu Feiluan cursed.
“Mu Ningxue has really gone crazy. She dares to stir up trouble in the Mu Clan Mountain. Humph, I can’t wait to see who’s going to protect her this time!” Mu Yinfeng spoke up.
They had gone easy on Mu Ningxue in recent years because she had won the World College Tournament.
