Extraordinary Soldier King in the City

Chapter 988: Despair Among the Crowd


Mu Family, inside the deliberation hall.

At this moment, the hall was incredibly lively.

The servants had already brought the fine wine and dishes from the back kitchen.

The members of the Mu Family were happily drinking, gulping down wine and meat, feeling utterly carefree.

The joyful atmosphere filled the entire hall.

Everyone was drinking and chatting; some even started singing, wantonly venting the gloom in their hearts these days.

However, they did not know that outside the hall, a bloody storm was already raging.

Death was inching closer to them.

The Family Head, Mu Tian, held his wine glass, walked to the center of the hall, and with a beaming smile, said to everyone, "Come, everyone calm down for a moment!"

Upon hearing this, the members of the Mu Family immediately quieted down, stopped chatting, and turned their heads toward Mu Tian.

Seeing this, Mu Tian smiled slightly and continued, "Today is a happy day. Our great enemy, Chen Feng, is finally going to be eliminated. Though our Mu Family has suffered heavy losses this time, I believe that as long as I am here, you all are here, the Mu Family will surely become even more glorious in the future!"

"Well said!"

The members of the Mu Family immediately applauded.

"Family Head, you speak so well. I believe that under your leadership, our Mu Family will one day become the number one family in Coastal!"

Mu Xishan hurriedly flattered.

"Yes, with the Family Head's excellent management, our Mu Family will surely grow stronger!"

Mu Zhenan also chimed in.

"Everyone flatters me too much, but I will surely not let everyone down. Believe me, the Mu Family will surely grow stronger!"

Mu Tian said with a full smile.

He then raised his wine glass and said to everyone, "Come, let us raise our glasses together!"

Seeing this, the members of the Mu Family quickly stood up from their seats and raised their glasses high.

"To celebrate this happy day, let's drink!"

After saying this, Mu Tian downed the contents of his glass in one go.

"Let's drink!"

Seeing this, the members of the Mu Family also raised their heads and emptied their glasses in one gulp.

"Come, let's have a second glass!"

"This second glass is to celebrate our ancestor returning victorious in advance. I estimate the ancestor should be back soon!"

Mu Tian said while pouring himself more wine.

"Haha, I must drink this second glass. When the ancestor brings back Chen Feng's head, I must use it as a chamber pot!"

Mu Xishan laughed and said.

"Hahaha!"

The members of the Mu Family all burst into laughter.

Everyone hurriedly filled their glasses.

Seeing this, Mu Tian raised his glass again, smiling, "Let us drink!"

Upon hearing this, everyone quickly raised their glasses, ready to drink in one go.

"Bang!"

However, at this moment, there was a loud noise.

The door of the deliberation hall was suddenly pushed open from the outside.

Immediately after, a guard covered in blood, wearing a black uniform, staggered and stumbled inside.

Seeing this, everyone in the hall was stunned.

"What's going on?"

Mu Tian furrowed his brow and looked at the guard, puzzled.

"Family Master, something terrible has happened; that Chen Feng has stormed in!"

The guard knelt with a thud in front of Mu Tian, shouting in terror.

"What! Chen Feng has stormed in?"

Hearing this, Mu Tian's whole body shook, his face filled with shock, and the wine glass in his hand fell directly to the ground.

The same shock was shared by everyone in the hall.

Clearly, this news was like a thunderbolt to them.

Because they all thought Chen Feng had been eliminated by Mu Xiangnan.

How could he suddenly storm in now?

This left everyone unable to accept it for a moment.

Mu Xishan even rushed forward, grabbing the guard by the collar, and shouted incredulously, "Damn it, impossible, you must have seen it wrong. Even the ancestor went personally; how could Chen Feng be alive? Are you joking with us?"

"Young Master Mu, I swear on my life, it truly is Chen Feng, he is terrifying!"

"Now, the experts responsible for guarding the family outside are almost all killed by him. I was lucky to escape with my life to report this."

"And he's on his way here now, we should quickly find a way to escape!"

The guard trembled, his face full of fear as he spoke.

Recalling what he saw outside, he felt a chill down his spine.

What they called human life as insignificant as grass, experts as ants.

Chen Feng perfectly illustrated it all.

The guards of the Mu Family couldn't withstand anything in front of Chen Feng.

It was simply a massacre, a nightmare!

Like the Death God descending upon the human world!

Instantly, everyone's faces turned extremely grim.

Clearly, the guard wasn't lying or joking.

And they were pushed from joy and excitement into a deep abyss of despair by the guard's words in just a second.

At this moment, everyone turned their heads toward Mu Tian.

"Family Head, what should we do now?"

An elder of the Mu Family asked, his face white as a sheet.

Upon hearing this, Mu Tian took a deep breath and forced himself to remain calm, saying, "Everyone, don't panic. I think the ancestor couldn't find Chen Feng, so Chen Feng slipped through. Let's retreat first, don't directly confront Chen Feng. Once we reach a safe place, we will contact the ancestor immediately for a counterattack!"

"Yes, yes, quickly retreat!"

Everyone chimed in.

Then they quickly put down their wine glasses, intending to retreat through the back door.

In the northwest corner of the deliberation hall, there was a back door, usually for servants.

Because the Mu Family had rules, in important places like the deliberation hall, servants and subordinates couldn't enter through the front door.

In other words, the back door was specifically for subordinates to use.

The members of the Mu Family, considering themselves noble, usually disdain using the back door.

For them, using the back door was like crawling through a dog hole, an insult to their status.

But at this moment, with life and death in the balance.

They no longer cared about status, scrambling towards the back door, leaving those behind behind.

However, when they reached the back door, they suddenly discovered.

The lock on the back door seemed broken, no matter how they tried, they couldn't open it.

The steel-made door couldn't be kicked open, either.

"Damn, the back door is sealed shut, what are we going to do!"

"Are we really going to die here today?"

"I don't want to die yet; I still have a lot of money unspent, many women unsatisfied!"

The members of the Mu Family fell into extreme despair, some young masters couldn't help but cry on the spot...
