A Public and Open Break with Wang Hun

Xu Mu stared at the bald man in front of him, his figure flashing instantly.

The bald man's eyes widened. He immediately looked around but couldn't find any trace of Xu Mu.

The next moment, he felt a cold sensation against his neck.

Xu Mu's dagger appeared from behind him, resting against his throat.

Seeing this, the bald man immediately raised both hands in surrender. He wasn't too surprised.

After all, he had already been shocked earlier. With such a formidable father, could his son be an ordinary person?

Xu Shou smiled and lit a cigarette at this moment, nodding secretly.

"Speak, where is that address?"

Xu Mu said with a cold expression, "Otherwise, I'll make your head part ways with your body."

"Spare my life! I'm just an errand boy, don't kill me! I'll tell you the address right now."

The bald man immediately pleaded.

Only then did Xu Mu lower his dagger. "Where? Hurry up."

"It's this address. I just escorted some people to this destination earlier."

The bald man took out a map from his pocket and handed it to Xu Mu.

Xu Mu took it and examined it, finding that it matched what the person he met at the Cui family had said.

However, encountering the bald man at the Cui family was outside the plan.

And the bald man in front of him might have intentionally let him know the address.

"Get lost!"

Xu Mu waved his hand at the bald man.

"Thank you!"

The bald man didn't even dare to use the main gate. He ran toward the side wall, leapt into the air, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Dad! Are you okay?"

Xu Ningbing walked over briskly.

"I'm fine. He seemed to be waiting for you guys. I even had a few cups of tea with him."

Xu Shou smiled and exhaled a puff of smoke.

"He's from the Immortality Research Institute. Old man, you should have heard of them, right?"

Xu Mu put away his dagger and said with a smile.

"Of course I have. That organization is incredibly formidable."

Xu Shou shook his head slightly. "They are too strong. It's best if we take a detour when we see them."

"Don't worry, I have a way to deal with them."

Xu Mu said with a smile, "For this Jiangbei branch, I plan to go find Wei Jingzhi. I think he will definitely help. Maybe Wang Hun is inside, and we can let Wei Jingzhi catch him along the way."

Hearing this, Xu Shou smiled, "Your method is not bad, but you still need to be careful in everything."

"I'm very afraid of dying. I don't do dangerous things."

Xu Mu walked toward Xu Shou. "What have you been doing these past few days?"

Xu Shou smiled, "I went fishing with my old comrades-in-arms. We went fishing in various places. I've been busy for most of my life; I have to enjoy myself eventually."

"Just don't get scammed. You are foolishly generous."

Xu Ningbing walked over indifferently.

"It's been so many days, and I haven't even finished spending the thirty thousand yuan on my card. What big money can a few old geezers like us spend?"

Xu Shou shook his head, took another drag of his cigarette, and then looked at Xu Mu. "You've improved a lot recently."

"Just look at whose son I am."

Xu Mu put his hands in his pockets.

"Hahaha! You're right! Learn well from that senior. When the time comes, your old man will prepare a big gift for you."

Xu Shou threw his head back and laughed.

"Dad, what about mine? Only he gets a gift. I'm not your biological child, am I?"

Xu Ningbing crossed her arms and asked coldly from the side.

Xu Mu glanced at Xu Ningbing, thinking: You really aren't biological.

Xu Shou also gave a dry laugh. "How could I forget you? Yours is even better than your brother's."

"I don't care about these things anyway."

Xu Ningbing gave a faint smile. "The matters in Jiangnan have been cleared up. I'll head back to the company first and settle the Jiangnan branch's affairs."

After she left, Xu Mu and Xu Shou sat at a stone table not far away.

"Recently, I heard that you've been getting very close to the Empress of the Sky Demon Tribe?"

Xu Shou suddenly frowned and asked.

Hearing this, Xu Mu hurriedly explained, "Although the Sky Demon Tribe is an alien race, their hatred for us is nowhere near that of the Jiuli Tribe. If I told you that this Empress sister has saved me several times, would you believe me?"

"I wouldn't. Perhaps she saw your great talent and approached you on purpose."

"Impossible, not with her IQ."

Xu Mu smiled and shook his head.

Xu Shou looked at Xu Mu. "What if she's pretending to be dumb on purpose? Unless you marry her and bring her home."

"Ah?"

Xu Mu was a bit dumbfounded.

"Right now, there's only the Nangong family in Jiangbei that can be considered a hidden family. Our Xu family is definitely stronger than them."

Xu Shou took a drag of his cigarette and said amidst the swirling smoke, "If you marry the Empress of the Sky Demon Tribe as your wife, it will bring glory to my face too."

"No way! Why don't you marry her? You're the family head."

Xu Mu was somewhat speechless. Truly his biological father.

"I said it before. If I dared to marry another woman, your mom would definitely kill me when she finds out. I don't want to die just yet."

Xu Shou waved his hand helplessly. "But you're different. If you marry a few more powerful wives, your mom will definitely be happy too. Sky Demon Tribe, Jiuli Tribe, you can marry them all."

"This... let's leave it to fate."

Xu Mu exhaled, but no matter what, he still had quite a bit of affection for Fu Jinyu.

...

It was still early, so Xu Mu prepared to deal with the Jiangbei branch first.

Letting the people from the Immortality Research Institute live for even one more day would put countless people in danger.

Xu Mu bid farewell to Xu Shou and returned to his own villa first to look for Tong Guoguo.

He planned to tell her about this matter first.

Arriving at the underground illusion array, Meng Wanyue and Dai Xingluo were sitting on the ground resting.

Tong Guoguo was sitting on the side, eating an apple and looking at her phone.

"Brother, you're here!"

Dai Xingluo stood up from the ground first and threw herself at Xu Mu.

[Favorability +10]

Tong Guoguo took a bite of her apple and glanced at Xu Mu.

[Favorability +10]

"Brother Mu."

Meng Wanyue also walked toward Xu Mu. She smiled and said, "We feel like we've already reached the peak of the mid-stage Divine Power realm. We plan to find some time to take the pills you gave us and break through to the late-stage Divine Power realm."

Xu Mu nodded slightly. "Alright, that will bring you one step closer to becoming Grandmasters."

As he spoke, he led the two of them and walked toward Tong Guoguo.

"Guoguo, you've worked hard lately."

Xu Mu smiled and sat in front of her.

[Favorability +10]

"It's no trouble. Training them doesn't take up much time anyway."

Tong Guoguo waved the half apple in her hand.

"Today I ran into another bald man who has your cells. They said that Wang Hun already views you as an enemy, and your old hideout has already been relocated."

Xu Mu looked at Tong Guoguo.

"That doesn't exceed my expectations."

Tong Guoguo said softly, "He must have received the news long ago that the orphanage I used to be in was found by the Cleaners."

Xu Mu nodded; he thought the same.

If it was just a disappearance, Wang Hun wouldn't treat Tong Guoguo as an enemy.

But since Tong Guoguo's former orphanage was found by the Cleaners, Wang Hun would definitely assume that Tong Guoguo already knew about her past.

Then her loyalty to Wang Hun would no longer exist.

"Wang Hun has established a new branch in Jiangbei again. The purpose is to lure me over. I plan to make a trip there. Are you going?"

Xu Mu said with a smile, "Don't worry, there will be experts protecting us this time."

"Of course I'm going! I've had enough of hiding. This time, I will openly and honorably break ties with Wang Hun!"

The apple core in Tong Guoguo's hand evaporated instantly.

"Let's go then. Wang Hun went to great lengths this time, so perhaps he is hiding out in the branch office himself," Xu Mu said with a smile.
