Chapter 1453: The Cause of the Problem

The Tianluo Continent, at the Mu Estate Headquarters in the North Territory.
At the back of the headquarters, a huge spiritual array was being set up on a high platform. The spiritual light was dim, as the spiritual array had not yet been fully set up.
However, upon this day, myriad rays of light suddenly burst out from the spiritual array, accompanied by a strong spatial fluctuation. The center of the spiritual array gradually tore open, revealing a space passageway.
At that moment, a person walked out of it. ”The Transfer Spiritual Array seems to be a success.” The person smiled as he looked at the spiritual light that was exuding from the spiritual array. This was a sign that the spiritual array had been activated.
He was none other than Mu Chen, who had rushed back from the Northern Spiritual Realm to the North Territory. He had spent five days in the space passageway before he had reached the North Territory. However, Mu Chen was pleased with the speed of this travel, as without the help of the Transfer Spiritual Array, he would have needed at least two months to reach the Tianluo Continent!
Swoosh!
The moment that Mu Chen appeared, several shadows shot towards him. When they got near him, Mu Chen saw that they were guards, who were dressed in armor.
”Who are you? How dare you barge into the Mu Estate Headquarters?” The guards all shouted in unison as they looked sharply at Mu Chen.
”You have reacted swiftly.” When Mu Chen saw them, he smiled.
He was pleased with the performance of these guards. After he stepped out of the Transfer Spiritual Array, the guards were then able to see his face clearly.
”It is the Estate Master! Greetings, Estate Master!” When the guards saw that it was Mu Chen, they were shocked. They no longer looked imposing, but quickly knelt down on one knee before Mu Chen.
”You may rise.” Mu Chen smiled and waved his sleeve before helping them up.
Swoosh!
At this moment, two more spiritual lights came down from the heavens. They were imposing, and when they revealed themselves, Mu Chen saw that they were Mandela and Ancestor Xuan Tian.
”You have finally come back.” When Mandela saw Mu Chen, she heaved a sigh of relief and sounded as though a huge weight had been lifted off of her shoulders.
Mu Chen smiled at her, then turned to Ancestor Xuan Tian. He cupped his fist and said, ”Thank you, Elder Xuan Tian, for protecting my Mu Estate during my absence.”
When Ancestor Xuan Tian heard his words of gratitude, he quickly smiled and said warmly, ”Estate Master, please do not say that. I am the Elder of the Mu Estate, so it is my duty to protect it.”
When Mu Chen heard what Ancestor Xuan Tian had said, he smiled, although he was a bit taken aback. Previously, Ancestor Xuan Tian had been forced by Mu Chen to be the Elder of the Mu Estate and was unhappy about it. However, his attitude had clearly changed completely!
When Ancestor Xuan Tian saw Mu Chen's baffled look, he smiled sheepishly and said, ”The entire Great Thousand World has heard about how Estate Master has suppressed the Budur Ancient Clan recently.”
When Ancestor Xuan Tian had heard this piece of news, he had been shocked. Although he knew that Mu Chen was powerful, it had never crossed his mind that Mu Chen would create havoc in the Budur Ancient Clan and suppress the elders of the Xuan lineage and the Mo lineage based on his strength alone.
He was even more surprised to learn that Mu Chen's mother had become the First Elder of the Budur Ancient Clan. With such a strong background, not many forces in the current Great Thousand World would have the audacity to look down on Mu Chen and his Mu Estate. From what Ancestor Xuan Tian could see, the Mu Estate had a bright future ahead of it.
As Mu Chen was enlightened, he knew the thoughts that were running through Ancestor Xuan Tian's mind. He was pleased by this. After all, if Ancestor Xuan Tian decided to remain as the Elder of his Mu Estate, it would definitely benefit all.
Thus, he softened his look toward Ancestor Xuan Tian. He then asked Mandela, ”Is everything well with the Mu Estate?”
Now that the Mu Estate had ruled over the North Territory and continued to stretch its influence into the Tianluo Continent, the supreme forces behind the veteran forces would surely be wary of it. As such, things might easily get out of hand.
”Initially, they took some actions against us, but ever since they heard how you created havoc in the Budur Ancient Clan, they became quiet. The supreme powers behind them also show signs of retreating…” Mandela reported.
She had expected for their Mu Estate to face intense competition from the various forces, but after the forces had heard what Mu Chen had done with the Budur Ancient Clan, no one dared to do anything to the Mu Estate. When Mu Chen heard this report, he sighed. He knew that the supreme powers were not wary of him, but of his mother, as she was currently the First Elder of the Budur Ancient Clan.
Apparently, Mu Chen did not know that a Divine Ancestral Master could be so powerful. However, this was a good sign.
If the supreme powers had the intentions of retreating, then one day, the North Territory would become the overlord of the Tianluo Continent. Then, his Mu Estate would become a supreme power in the Great Thousand World with the help of the North Territory.
Of course, Mu Chen had to advance to the Divine level before any of that could happen. If he did not do so, the Mu Estate would not be deemed as a supreme power.
”What has happened to Nine Nether?” Mu Chen asked after he pushed away those thoughts. His eyes looked cold.
