Chapter 4 - Mu Mansion

In the Mu mansion,after the effect of the marrow refining pill vanished Mu Tian slowly opened his eyes.

"System what rank is my talent now?"

["Host is currently a peak Earth rank talent."]

"This marrow refining pill is really good.One pill is enough to upgrade my talent a minor level."

Looking at the remaining five pills in the bottle Mu Tian sighed,"It's a pity that I can only consume a pill per day."

While he was muttering in a daze, the door of the hall opened by someone. Then a girl about sixteen years old entered.

But when she saw Mu Tian sitting on the bed she become stunned.

"Young Master, you..."

Before the girl finish what she was about to say, she started running.

Seeing the reaction of the girl. Mu Tian become dumbfounded.He asked himself,

"Did I look that scary?"

.....

On the other side, General Mu and his wife were discussing.

"Wife, Emperor has already given the edict. Now that Tian is already crippled. I will be better for him to stay in the house untill father returned." General Mu said to his wife.

"Umm,Tian should relax for few days.If there is really no way, I will ask my father." Mother Wu replied.

"What?You want to ask your father? He was already very dissatisfied when you married me.In this twenty years he didn't even come to see you once not even when Tian was born." General Mu asked. He is clearly astonished by his wife.

"Don't forget I'm his only daughter.He will definitely not sit by when he know about Tian." Mother Mu replied with a probing gaze.

General Mu still hesitated."But still I don't think..."

But before he can finish what he was about to say he is stoped by his wife.

"Don't you know what that Emperor and Empress are planning?"

"Once the war with the Zhou Empire and demonic cult finished he will definitely target our Mu family.At that time if father didn't return do you think we will be able to fight with the Imperial family?" Madam Mu asked seriously.

General Mu also know the importance of the problem.So,he just nodded in a depressed voice."Umm,okey let's wait for two years.If father still didn't return, we will asked your father."

While they were discussing, a girl entered the room hurriedly. She seems to out of her breath as she tried to say,

"Madam.Young master...."

"Xun'r clam down first then say What happened to your young master?" Madam Mu asked hurriedly.

"Young master have woken up."The girl called Xun'r said in one breath.

" Really. Tian'er has really woken up?"Madam Mu grabbed the girls hand and asked.

"Yes Madam.I have seen him sitting on the bed." Xun'r replied.

But Madam Mu didn't have patient to listen anymore.She had already ran towards Mu Tian's room.

General Mu also followed behind his wife.Soon they arrived at Mu Tian's room.

Mu Tian was still thinking about the girl when a women suddenly hugged him.

"Tian'er,My son,it's good that you have woken up. You have made mother worry." Mother Mu hugged Mu Tian and started crying.

Hearing the voice to Madam Mu, a surge of emotion appeared in his heart.

At this moment, he really didn't know how to react.His heart filled with mixed filling.He was originally an orphan on earth who never experienced parental love.

After struggling for some time Mu Tian called out in a muffed voice.

"Mother."His voice choked.

"Good,good,it good that you are fine."Hearing her son's voice Madam Mu cried even hardly.

Few moments later Madam Mu stopped crying and released Mu Tian from her embrace.

Mu Tian looked at the General Mu who is standing beside them.Looking at the unfamiliar yet familiar face his emotion became once again unstable.

" Father." Mu Tian unknowingly called out.

Tear also appeared in Father Mu's eyes.

"It's good that you are fine.You should take some rest."

After saying that he looked at the servant girl and ordered," Xun'r go brought some porridge for Tian."

"As you said master." Xun'r replied.

After the servant girl leave Father Mu looked at Mu Tian again and said seriously,"Tian you don't need to worry about your broken meridian. I will definitely find a way to cure them."

"It's ok dad.I'm fine." Mu Tian replied with a smile.He originally mean that his meridians have already recovered but Father and Mother Mu thinks opposite.

Looking at their son's self-deprecating smile they feels like their heart has been stabbed by needle.

Mother Mu glared her eyes at Father Mu and shouted, "What nonsense are you talking.Tian has just woken up."

Father Mu became instantly silent.He didn't know how to reply to his wife.

While they are in a deadlock Xun'r arrived with porridge.

"Madam here is the porridge." Xun'r said as the put it on a table.

"Give it to me." Mother Mu ordered.

After Xun'r give it to Mother Mu she started feeding Mu Tian.Mu Tian had no way to reject his mother so he stared eating with his head lowered.

After he finished eating both Father Mu and Mother Mu left. Only Xun'r was standing at a corner of the bed.

"Xun'r come here." Mu Tian ordered.

"Young Master do you need anything?" Xun'r asked.

"Nothing.You sit first." Mu Tian said.

"I can't Young Master.Servants are not allowed to sit with master." Xun'r hurriedly denied.

"I told you to sit and also don't call me young master from now on you will call me big brother."Mu Tian said to Xun'r seriously.

From the memory of original owner Mu Tian has already known about this girl.When she was young her village was exterminated by bandits.Only she was left alive.

Fortunately,Mother Mu was travelling by the village when she found her.So picked her up and brought her to Mu Mansion.

She was always very obedient and could be said to be a little follower of the original Mu Tian. 

"Young Master I can't. Xun'r is just a servant girl." Xun'r said with her head lowered.

"You can't deny.It's an ordered." Mu Tian said.

...

In the next day,the matter of Mu Tian offending Crown Prince and being crippled spread over the entire kingdom.

"Have you heard Young Master from General Mu mansion has offended crown Prince. His cultivation has been stripped and he has been house arrested by his Majesty the Emperor."

"This Young Master Mu is really unlucky. Originally general Mu can still protect him if he had offended other princes.Why he have to offend crown Prince? "

"Even General Mu and Old Physician Wu have plead for mercy but he still house arrested."

"I heard, he has helped a girl to escape that crown Prince has taken a fancy."

"Who don't know crown Prince's lecherous nature?It's a pity that such a righteous young man like Young Master Mu has been crippled."
