2697 Swallowing
Soon, a young woman, aged between 18 to 19, clad in black attire that elegantly traced the contours of her figure, stood resolute at the entrance of Magnolia Court. A frigid expression adorned her features as she held her sword horizontally in her grasp.
In less than 10 minutes, a commotion stirred before the grandeur of Magnolia Court.
Two elder maidservants, their countenances marked by ferocity, emerged. They proclaimed to have arrived under the directive of the Family Head to summon Miss Qiao to the main courtyard.
Li Ye, however, displayed no intention of acquiescence, maintaining her icy demeanor.
One of the elderly attendants began a string of incoherent curses. Before she could utter more than three sentences, her head became abruptly severed from her body.
The other attendant, overwhelmed by terror, involuntarily wet their pants. Hastily retreating from the entrance of Magnolia Court, they scurried back to Mu Jingfeng’s main courtyard on Mu Jingfeng Peak to report the unfolding incident.
Mu Jingfeng, situated at the height of his exasperation, vented his fury by hurling a teacup to the ground, shattering it into pieces.
Wu Shaoyin, too, expressed his ire, forcefully smashing his own cup. “As a humble official, I am carrying out the Crown Prince Consort’s orders in a lawful and rational manner! I implore the cooperation of Family Head and Family Head Mu. Let us not squander everyone’s time.”
“At this juncture, it stands within the bounds of reason for the Crown Prince Consort to seek expedited debt collection! Should the coffers lack sufficient spiritual currency, then Family Head Mu and Family Head Mu have the option to unlock the treasury. We shall, of course, employ a professional accounting team to diligently compute the auction-acquired treasures into spiritual currency!”
Mu Jingfeng seethed, his anger verging on a precipice, his desire to abruptly depart palpable.
Wu Shaoyin, too, ignited in a blaze of frustration. “Should Family Head Mu and Family Head Mu choose not to cooperate, we may have no choice but to enlist the Violetwood Guard to enforce compliance and reconcile the accounts!!”
/Utter that proclamation once more, I dare you!/
Mu Jingfeng’s eyes blazed with ire, as if Wu Shaoyin stood before him as a declared adversary. His accusatory finger pointed menacingly at the young man’s visage. “You, you! Remarkable!”

“It would appear that he has indeed embraced the conduct befitting His Excellency Cao. Remarkable, indeed!”
/Ah, well! Your esteemed Sir Cao had a spine back when facing the Crown Prince Consort. He was nothing but a sycophant, no doubt!/
Wu Shaoyin cast an icy gaze towards the towering form of Mu Jingfeng, who was at the pinnacle of his composure. He uttered, “Family Head Mu, Family Head Mu, it is my counsel to cease your resistance. Collaborate fully in delivering both spiritual currency and assets. The swifter we conclude our reckoning, the sooner our debt-retrieval unit can depart from the Mu Clan’s premises.”
Mu Jingfeng trembled with an anger so intense that it resonated throughout his frame. Yet, it seemed apparent that the resolution of this matter hinged on accessing the main branch’s treasuries.
“Mu Liang!” Mu Jingfeng bellowed from his eminent position, “Escort them there! Exercise vigilant oversight. Should there be any shortfall in spiritual tools, medicinal resources, or the like, even by a fraction, I shall hold you accountable!”
“Understood.” Mu Liang couldn’t help but release a resigned sigh.
/No necessity existed for this father and daughter to convene as adversaries, their features warped with seething jealousy./
/If he had a daughter of his own, he would certainly lavish her with affection. Yet, what use were such contemplations, sigh…/
The Family Head Mu gulped down a surge of blood, flustered and vexed. His usually handsome countenance darkened as he directed his steps toward Magnolia Court.
/This disobedient daughter, this disobedient daughter!/
He halted midway, his fist swinging ferociously towards a tree, snapping a sapling in twain with a resounding crack.
Meanwhile, on the opposite end, following Qiao Mu’s completion of crafting over a hundred talismans, she gathered the array of symbols into a purple storage talisman.
With an unchanging expression, she took her seat upon the divan, her gaze fixed upon the young woman cloaked in black before her. Uttering calmly, she instructed, “Proceed to the Night Pavilion and Night Pavilion to disseminate this information. Declare that Mu Jingfeng of the Mu Jingfeng lineage has suffered a monumental setback. He presently finds himself in a state of bartering auction acquisitions for spiritual currency to settle his debts.”
“Once you’ve concluded the aforementioned task, proceed to the tavern and apprehend a group of unruly Viscounts who are propagating baseless tales. Dispatch them without delay. Following which, convey with utmost gentleness that these individuals were the purveyors of these falsehoods. Implore all to disregard these fabrications.”
“Ensure you avoid inciting undue panic in others. Is that clear?”
All in attendance: …
