“Let’s talk over there.” Chu Mu said to Qin Meng’er.

Qin Meng’er nodded, called her Flame Bird back, and didn’t bother with the unreasonable Chu Ying. She followed behind Chu Mu.

“Chu Mu, where are you going without training!!” Chu Ying’s cheeks flushed with anger. In the past, when this young lady found trouble with Chu Mu, he would ignore her. Now, Chu Mu completely treated his cousin Chu Ying as air!

“Little sister Meng’er has been coming to us a lot lately, just like before, following this kid…” Chu He glanced at Chu Mu and Qin Meng’er, who were walking to the side, and slowly spoke.

Chu Xing nodded and said, “Their relationship has been good since they were young. The families initially planned for marriage…”

When Chu Xing reached this point, he suddenly stopped, realizing that it was unnecessary to mention these things now, so he just curved the corner of his lips.

“Humph, what’s the big deal about a marriage? If I knew my fiancé had lost a soul and disappeared for four years, I would have severed ties with him!” Chu Ying said.

“Little sister, you can’t be so calculating. You can see that Meng’er has always cared about Chu Mu. Even after Chu Mu’s loss of a soul became known, she was still very good to him. If Chu Mu could really marry such a good wife…” Chu Xing’s words also revealed a touch of envy.

Qin Meng’er was born beautiful, always giving people a sense of ethereal beauty. Many people liked her, including Chu Xing. However, Chu Xing knew that Qin Meng’er had always liked to follow Chu Mu and that she probably liked Chu Mu. Thus, Chu Xing didn’t have any other thoughts.

“Where is she good, huh? Big Brother only knows how to praise others!” Chu Ying angrily left, putting away her Vermilion Bird and no longer wanting to train.

Chu Mu and Qin Meng’er didn’t go far, just talking to the side. Chu Mu’s hearing was excellent and could catch the conversation of the others.

Actually, Chu Mu knew that if there hadn’t been so many accidents, he would have married Qin Meng’er when they both turned twenty. However, Qin

Meng’er was chosen by the Luo region, and Chu Mu himself ended up on the Green Nightmare Demon Island. Over the four years, the two had grown apart, and Chu Mu no longer took the marriage arranged by the family seriously, let alone that the marriage agreement should have been dissolved already.

“Is there any news?” Chu Mu looked at Qin Meng’er and asked.

“Yes, it can be very certain now. I never thought that the Chu family’s decline over the years would be because of them…” Qin Meng’er whispered.

“I had a feeling something was wrong before. So it was them.” Chu Mu revealed a cold smile.

The decline of a family is often not due to external attacks, but due to internal decay. Chu Mu understood this simple truth. The Chu family’s trade routes are known to the Yang family; their territories were nearly destroyed during their most vulnerable times, and Chu Yi was injured during the Recommendation. These seemingly accidental incidents, but when connected to the word “traitor,” no longer appear suspicious.

Previously, Chu Mu had learned some information about the Chu family’s situation over the years from He Lang. Many things that shouldn’t have happened were occurring very strangely, even to the point where it seems that the Yang family and the Zhou Clan knew everything about the Chu family…;

Chu Mu had always concealed his full strength from the family because he guessed this possibility. If he had revealed his strength to the Yang and Zhou families too soon, they would have definitely taken corresponding measures and devised various conspiracies.

The Nightmare Demon Palace’s understanding was limited, so Chu Mu specifically asked Qin Meng’er to use the Qin family’s information resources to investigate this matter in depth.

The Qin family has been standing tall in Gangluo City for decades, with deep connections in trade and human resources. With thorough investigation, they would definitely find some odd movements from the Four Great Families, and bearish trends. As expected, Qin Meng’er brought back some information to Chu Mu, which confirmed the presence of a traitor and who it might be.

“What do you plan to do?” Qin Meng’er asked quietly. It’s hard enough to find a traitor in a family, let alone clean up after them. If the traitor has significant power, the whole family’s interests will be involved. Many times, even when they are 70-80% sure of the identity of the traitor, they can only pretend not to notice.

“Some things need to be resolved.” Chu Mu said indifferently.

“You’re going to get rid of them… after all, they are your…” Qin Meng’er stared at Chu Mu, feeling that he had changed tremendously. If it were the Chu Mu from four years ago, he would never have done this.

“After the Recommendation, I’ll leave here, so I have to clean up things here.” Chu Mu said. Qin Meng’er was one of the people Chu Mu trusted the most, and since she already knew his identity, there was no need to hide anything about handling the Chu family’s issues.

“Leave here?” Qin Meng’er looked at Chu Mu with her clear eyes.

“Yeah.” Chu Mu nodded, then slowly walked towards the training field.

Qin Meng’er watched Chu Mu, and for some reason, she felt that the Chu Mu from four years ago and the Chu Mu now were like two different people. He always wore an icy mask that was difficult to approach, wise, cold, calm, and rarely emotionally fluctuating… The only thing that still made Qin Meng’er feel familiar with Chu Mu was the emotion in his eyes when looking at his soul pets…

Late at night, in the room of the old Family Head Chu Ming, Chu Mu, dressed in white, was standing in front of the window, his gaze fixed on the distant mountains visible from the window.

Next to Chu Mu was Chu Ming, the Family Head. Dressed in a sleeping robe, his pale hair fluttered in the wind from the window.

“You have something to say to your grandfather, right?” Chu Ming looked at Chu Mu, who had a completely different demeanor from four years ago, and slowly began to speak.

“Yes, I think you should have noticed it too. You just didn’t want to admit it, or you’ve been hesitant.” Chu Mu didn’t mince words.

Chu Mu had initially intended to send a Nightmare Demon Palace killer to eliminate the internal corruption within the Chu Family, but eventually gave up. Chu Mu felt that a family that relied on external intervention to make changes would never truly prosper. The solution was to target the root of the problem and change from within…

“The recommendation tournament is approaching, and I plan to clean up this matter before it arrives. Sigh…” Chu Ming sighed, looked at the window for a long time, and finally spoke,

“Your return has made me determined. It’s time for me to give up the position of Family Head. As one ages, too many things become a concern.”

Chu Ming’s words surprised Chu Mu, who stared at the old man for quite a while with a touch of bitterness. It seemed that his decision not to send the Nightmare Demon Palace killer was correct.

“Afterward, your big uncle will handle the family’s internal and external affairs. He’s clean and decisive, and he’ll know how to deal with the family’s internal issues…” Chu Ming’s tone was long and weary. It was obvious that Chu Ming had been mulling over this for a long time, but was still hesitant.

Seeing Chu Ming’s dark and solemn expression, Chu Mu knew that it was very difficult for Chu Ming to make this decision. After all, that person had made many contributions to the family…

“You go back and rest. Let your grandfather be quiet.” Chu Ming waved his hand, letting Chu Mu leave.

Chu Mu nodded. Since Chu Ming had made up his mind, Chu Mu didn’t need to worry about it anymore. It was more appropriate for Chu Ming, the Family Head, to resolve these matters…

For a month, Chu Mu continued to train MO Ye and the Night Thunder Dream Beast, raising their strengths. Although Chu Mu appeared on the Chu family training ground, he felt that practicing skills and strength were not as effective as real combat for rapidly improving the strength of the Soul Pets.

So, for most of this month, Chu Mu stayed in the Broken Forest to engage in pure combat and spend large sums of money to quickly enhance the strength of Zhan Ye.

In this month, the Chu Family continued to focus on networking, economy, reputation, and strength. It seemed that this year’s recommendation tournament wasn’t much different from the previous ones. However, changes had begun to occur within the family.

This change wasn’t very obvious, but those who understood the family’s system could still detect it.

The main industries operated by the Chu Family were gradually taken over by Chu Tianheng’s people; the Chu Family Guards were entirely in Chu Tianheng’s hands, and the family retainers were assigned to Chu Tianlin. Chu Tianjue’s power diminished drastically within a short period.

As the recommendation tournament approached, the Chu Family suddenly discovered that the forces under Chu Nan’s command had withdrawn overnight from the important family industries. They were sent to the remote subsidiary cities of Gangluo City, controlling only a small part of the Chu Family’s businesses.

At this point, everyone could see that a majorshuffle had taken place within the Chu Family in a short period of time. The one-third of the businesses controlled by Chu Nan had suddenly declined, causing the Chu Family’s economy to take another severe hit…

The Chu Family had already fallen into decline. This reshuffle, however, dealt an even harder blow to them. Many people didn’t understand why the Chu Family chose this particular time to reorganize their family unwise.

“The major issues within the Chu family have been basically resolved, a remaining stains will be gradually removed. However, addressing these problems in such a big way will also bring huge challenges. If we don’t s our Chu family’s spirit in this recommendation tournament, our family face another major crisis on the verge of collapse!”

“So the fate of the entire family lies in the hands of you five. You must not let the family down! !”

The heavy voice of the new Family Head Chu Tianheng echoed in the ears of the five young Chu Family members participating in the tournament!
