Further inside the main building is the location of the clan association building.

The Mu clan association meetings are always very solemn and serious, and all members must respect all the etiquette and rituals of the association.

Even clan members who are not qualified to join the clan association must wait outside the gate when there is nothing to do.

When the clan council is in session, its members are completely isolated and cannot contact the outside world. No one is allowed to interfere or intrude.

The monthly clan meeting starts at 1 p.m. and continues until 5 p.m.

When the clan association gates open, those closely connected to the entire clan will rush forward to inquire about their clan association leaders: whether they have secured more resource allocations, whether they have taken on positions they have fought for for many years, and whether they have been punished for mistakes made last month...

Therefore, the Mu clan has always been known as the ice-type dynasty in the country. Their clan meetings are like the morning court in ancient times, where people bathe and change clothes, prepare their speeches, and strive for interests with caution.

The conference hall was spacious, bright, and resplendent with gold. The walls were adorned with ice-blue patterns, giving the overall impression of an ice crystal world that was dazzling and eye-catching!
After the clan meeting ended and everyone had finished talking and left the building, some people were still sitting in the conference hall.

Those who remained were all elders of the Mu clan with extraordinary status. They were seated in order on both sides of the main hall, their eyes fixed on the old man sitting in the main seat in front of them.

The old man had white hair and beard, but he didn't look very old. He was wearing a white Zhongshan suit with a lifelike ice dragon printed on it.

He sat on a chair made of Phoebe zhennan wood, the top of which was carved with a lifelike, five-clawed ice dragon, which complemented the ice dragon on his Zhongshan suit.

A chilling mist emanated from his body, and his vertical pupils gleamed with a deep blue light, as if he were staring at everyone present, making people shiver involuntarily!
Unlike conventional meeting halls, the main hall resembles the council hall of ancient clans and aristocratic families, with a wide aisle instead of a large round table in the center.

Wooden chairs were neatly arranged on both sides of the aisle for meeting attendees to sit in. The order of the seats represented their status within the Mu family, with the dragon throne at the very front being the seat of honor.

The old man in the main seat was resting with his eyes closed, his breathing steady, as if he were asleep. But when you were next to him, you could feel an inexplicable pressure coming from him.

At this moment, the Mingming clan meeting had already ended, and the meeting hall was silent; no one spoke.

At this moment, someone finally spoke up, breaking the silence.

"Elder, is there something you want to tell us, the higher-ups, by keeping us behind?"

The first person to speak was a handsome man dressed in magnificent attire. He was Mu Feiluan, one of the elders in the clan council, in charge of the internal affairs of the entire Mu clan.

The arrangement, discipline, training, punishment, and so on of the young members of the Mu family were all decided by Mu Feiluan alone.

For example, Pan Xi was Mu Feiluan's subordinate, responsible for finding outstanding magic geniuses all over the country. He selected Mu Ningxue from a collateral branch of the family in Bo City and recommended her to Mu Feiluan.

If Mu Feiluan agrees and believes that Mu Ningxue has the potential to become a leader among that group of young people, then she can be treated like a precious jewel and become the envy of everyone.

But if Mu Feiluan disagrees, Mu Ningxue will be deposed, and her cultivation will be completely stripped away, dragging her down from her pedestal!
Moreover, Mu Ningxue could not resist in the slightest. Not only her, but all the young disciples had to do the same. Life and death were only a matter of Mu Feiluan's decision!
As soon as he finished speaking, all eyes in the room turned to the elderly man sitting in the main seat, waiting for him to speak.

A moment later, Elder Fan Ning slowly opened his eyes, his pupils flashing with an icy white light, and looked around at everyone present.

His gaze was icy cold, radiating a chill that sent shivers down everyone's spine; it was incredibly oppressive. After a long silence, he stroked his beard and spoke, word by word.

"The reason I've kept everyone here is to discuss a few things."

Upon hearing this, everyone's aura froze, and they looked at Elder Fan Ning with suspicion, waiting for him to continue.

"The first thing is that Mu Ningxue, one of the collateral descendants, has been absorbing the Ice Crystal Bow too quickly lately, which is very strange."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone turned their heads and turned their gazes toward Mu Feiluan, who was sitting there.

Mu Ningxue was discovered by Pan Xi, and as Mu Feiluan's subordinate, Pan Xi naturally looked to him, wanting to hear what he had to say.

Mu Feiluan hadn't expected to become the center of attention. After a moment's thought, she nodded and said...

"That's true. Pansy mentioned it to me before, but I didn't take it too seriously and didn't ask any further questions."

"Mu Ningxue... Hmph, so she's that woman's bastard child!"

At this moment, a cold voice rang out, its tone carrying a hint of disdain and mockery.

Beside her, a beautiful woman sat on a chair, wearing a gorgeous ice-white dress that showed off her beautiful figure. Her long, slender, snow-white legs were raised from between the hem of the dress and crossed over each other.

Her blue crystal high heels lightly touched the ground in mid-air, and the cold aura she exuded carried a hint of charming allure, making the men unable to resist kneeling at her feet.

Mu Yinfeng crossed her arms over her chest, a sinister smile on her face, and snorted coldly.

"How could she possibly accelerate the absorption of the Ice Crystal Bow? I think it's just a bit of luck. A collateral branch can't cause any trouble."

"A collateral branch?"

The elder named Mu Fangzhou frowned slightly, stroking the stubble on his chin. His narrow eyes involuntarily narrowed, his gaze deep.

After a moment of silence, he looked at me strangely and spoke in a low, eerie tone.

"It's not that the collateral branch can absorb the Ice Crystal Bow, but the speed at which it does so is somewhat unacceptable."

"Fang Zhou's words make sense. If it were a direct descendant, we could provide sufficient cultivation resources. The problem is that Mu Ningxue is only from a collateral branch. Wouldn't that be a bit..."

Another elderly man dressed in a Zhongshan suit said that he was Mu Dao, one of the elders, and now a member of the Supreme Tribunal.

The two speakers were both elders in the Mu clan. Not to mention their extraordinary status in the country, their strength was far beyond what Mu Feiluan and Mu Yinfeng could compare to.

At the very least, both Mu Fangzhou and Mu Dao are fully trained at the highest level!
The group discussed how to handle the matter, ultimately turning their gaze to Elder Fan Ning, who sat at the head of the table, awaiting his decision. (End of Chapter)
