Chapter 1316: You are being disrespectful!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It was all thanks to his timely appearance that he managed to stop his nephew!
Otherwise, he really did not dare to think of the consequences!
That earlier scene also let him, as a third party, have a taste of his nephew’s viciousness!
Mu Yazhe greeted him neutrally, “Second uncle, why are you here?”
“Crazy! Simply outrageous! Have you gone mad? What were you trying to do just then?”
“Nothing at all!” A derisive laugh vibrated from his throat. “Surely, it’s time now to settle some decade-long scores with a certain someone!”
“Preposterous!”
The latter’s reply exasperated Mu Linfeng. He suddenly paused mid-track of his words and surveyed his surroundings with a clear, warning look.
Naturally understanding that look, Min Yu immediately got rid of the people around and retreated himself.
There were only the three of them left in the corridor!
Now that there was no one else around, the older man glared sternly at his nephew. “No nonsense! Yazhe, he’s your fourth uncle—your elder! Is your action proper? No matter what he did wrong, he’s still your elder and what you did is simply disrespectful!”
The younger man’s face instantly turned cold. “What is it, second uncle? From your tone, I guess you’re trying get Fourth Mu exonerated!”
He rebuked, “Fourth Mu? Is that the way you should be addressing him given his seniority over you? You should address him as fourth uncle; don’t you forget your manners. You’re simply being disrespectful here!”
“Second uncle, you’re the one who’s unqualified to meddle in our feud!” The man scoffed, not giving his uncle a bit of face or an out this time at all!
Mu Linfeng almost fainted in anger at his arrogant tone!
“Do you still have any respect for your elders?!” He seethed almost ungracefully. “Remember this: He’s your senior! Regardless of his wrongdoings, you have no right to create havoc here; do you understand?!”
“Second uncle, are you getting yourself involved in this matter?”
“I have no idea what you’re talking about! I won’t interfere with your actions, but you must get the seniority ranking clear! I don’t wish to see a repeat of the earlier scene!”
A smirk appeared on his nephew’s face as he gave him a meaningful glance. “It looks as if you’re bent on protecting him!”
His tone was somber and cold!
While he could not contain his anger, he noticed his nephew’s unfathomable gaze!
“Second uncle, aren’t you afraid that your actions will cause a dent in our relations.h.i.+p?”
With balled up fists, he took in a deep breath then said, “If the family lives in harmony, all affairs will prosper!”
As soon as he spoke, a cold derisive laugh burst out from his nephew!
It was as if what he had just said was a big joke to him!
“How ridiculous and sad your words are!”
The younger man’s eyes narrowed as he walked over to his uncle and leaned down slightly; his cold gaze landed on the latter’s face. “Harmony and prosperity, indeed!”
“You…”
Out of the blue, he remarked, “I’m sure you know what happened a decade ago!”
His second uncle’s face changed in an instant but very quickly regained its usual calmness. His brows furrowed as he shot his brother a complex look.
