Chapter 1086: Chapter 730: Mu Lin’s EQ (Second Update)

"What?" Tang Miao’s face displayed the astonishment of being interrupted, a bizarre mixture of surprise and smugness that was utterly strange to behold!

"Neither my father nor my Master believed in the Tang family, his surname is Mu! And his name is Mu Jue," Mu Lin’s voice was bitterly cold, "Tang Miao, make sure you remember that!" They had never been so-called family, and as for that blood relation...hah, did it really matter? Mu Lin didn’t think so.

So, "Whether it’s me, Mu Lin, or my father, Mu Jue, there is not the slightest connection between him and you! And the only connection between us is..." The murderous intent no longer hidden in the darkness of his eyes, "You are my—father’s killer!"

That was the one unalterable relationship between them!

Watching Mu Lin’s fierce gaze, Tang Miao retorted, "Indeed, I should not have let you live back then!" If it wasn’t for his momentary soft-heartedness... But was it really a moment of weakness, or was it...

"Yes, I really should thank you for sending so many assassins to ambush me then, does it hurt?" The curve of Mu Lin’s lips was cold and mocking, with a schadenfreude smile, "Though those assassins weren’t exactly up to the mark, they were indeed much more formidable than those standing at your doorstep!"

Mu Lin hadn’t forgotten the skills of those assassins; if she hadn’t carried poison and had not been trained by Mi Zheng since she was young, she might have indeed met her demise at their hands.

So indeed! If she could infuriate you to death, Mu Lin would not spare you a bit, especially when her current enemy was standing right in front of her.

With a "Bang," the coffee table in front of Mu Lin and Tang Miao suddenly collapsed, shattering instantly.

The angry slam signalled to Mu Lin: the quality of this coffee table was truly poor!

Without any hesitation, Jing Chen moved to protect Mu Lin behind him, flicking away the flying glass shards, and in that very direction, right across; Tang Miao’s cheek now bore a trickle of blood spreading slowly, a slender and sharp cut making its way down.

Fingers stained with blood, Tang Miao’s expression was now utterly dark, his anger unable to intensify any further, he barked, "Mi Zheng, what are you waiting for! Take them down now!"

As soon as Tang Miao’s command dropped, Mi Zheng stepped forward without hesitation to protect Tang Miao, his expression cool as he eyed Jing Chen, yet he didn’t immediately make a move, as if he was waiting for Jing Chen or Mu Lin to strike first, adopting a defensive strategy.

Such behavior from Mi Zheng appeared odd to Mu Lin.

Stepping out from Jing Chen’s arms, Mu Lin rose to her feet, her gaze on Mi Zheng, "Are you sure you want to fight us?" Although this was their territory, it didn’t mean they would lose, especially not to them.

Mu Lin’s eyes were clear, so pristine that there wasn’t a single speck of impurity, even when she was provoking someone else, including when she killed; in fact, that was precisely what Mi Zheng feared the most; Mu Lin never knew that to Mi Zheng, her clear eyes were his nemesis.

Perhaps even Mu Lin herself hadn’t noticed that Mi Zheng never held her gaze for long, just a flicker, quickly passing by.

Without a word, Mi Zheng slowly extended his hand, "Mi Zheng, do you want to hear a story?"

The speaker was Jing Chen.

His eyes calmly indifferent, Jing Chen’s voice did not waver as he looked at Mi Zheng.

"Not necessary." To him, nothing was important.

"What if this story is related to your origins?"

Origins.

Finally, Mi Zheng’s gaze settled on Jing Chen, "What origins."

But at that moment, Tang Miao suddenly interjected, "There are no origins; you are just an orphan I picked up. I’ve provided for you, tried my best to raise you into talent, and then helped you to your current position!"

"Mi Zheng, don’t make the same mistake as Tang Qishan by giving up everything you’re about to grasp for a woman! Once you have those things in your hands, what kind of woman can’t you have! If it isn’t too much, I will even stop preventing you from liking Mu Lin! After this matter is settled, I can even hand over all of the ’Heavenly Net’ to you, by then, no one will have the right to command you! And you, will have the woman you covet."
