Hearing Su Zijin's grudging reminder, Mu Jinyu's head filled with black lines.
Now he understood. Whatever Su Zijin had just mentioned about fearing that the Mu Family would die out was true, but probably not to a great extent.
More so, she just wanted him to hurry up and give her a granddaughter!
"Oh, mom, having children isn't something you can just do whenever you want, can you?"
Mu Jinyu helplessly said, "Grandpa passed away with only one daughter, you. Don't you really understand the situation? Our kind of bloodline inheritors has a hard time having children. Once your cultivation reaches the God Realm, it becomes even more difficult, and hurrying me won't help."
Su Zijin sighed deeply, "That's why I kept urging you to have children early on when you were just an Energy Transformation Warrior—you wouldn't listen back then."
Su Zijin of course also understood the difficulties the People of the Su Family faced in having children, after all, carrying the Dragon Clan's bloodline is not the same as ordinary people.
The fact that the Old Dragon King had a daughter in his old age was almost a miracle.
Back then, the Old Dragon King thought their Su Family would die out in his generation.
After all, he was not only of the Dragon Clan bloodline, but also a God Realm strong warrior.
And the fact that Su Zijin could give birth to Mu Jinyu with his father, aside from really good luck, was also because she did not cultivate from a young age, which allowed her to successfully conceive Mu Jinyu.
For Mu Jinyu now, the situation was just like that of the Old Dragon King back then; having the Dragon Clan bloodline increased the difficulties of impregnating a woman, and being in the God Realm, it was doubly difficult.
However, the only difference was that the Old Dragon King only had one wife back in the day,
while Mu Jinyu now had six wives. Adding that his Dragon Clan bloodline concentration actually wasn't very high, there was still a chance for Gu Xiyan or one of the others to get pregnant during this period.
"Alright, mom, don't worry so much. Grandpa was old but still managed to have you with grandma, and I'm still young. Without taking precautions, if not in one year, then five, if not five, then ten, eventually I will make you a grandmother..."
Mu Jinyu patted Su Zijin's shoulder, trying to reassure her.
When Su Zijin heard Mu Jinyu's words, she was stunned for a moment, then got so angry she wanted to hit Mu Jinyu, and fiercely said, "You used to take precautions?"
Seeing the somewhat angry expression on Su Zijin's face, Mu Jinyu felt a bit guilty yet also justified, "Yeah, before I thought I was just eighteen, still a child, I didn't want to become a father so early. Now I feel I have taken on a lot of responsibilities, and it's not too bad to want descendants earlier..."
"Oh, don't hit me, don't hit me..."
Before Mu Jinyu could finish speaking, Su Zijin began to pummel him wildly!
"I'll teach you, still a child, I'll teach you still a child!"
Su Zijin was so angry her face turned red, and since she couldn't find anything handy, she took off her shoe to hit Mu Jinyu with it.
Mu Jinyu, not wanting to be hit, ended up being chased all over the place by her!
In the end, he had no choice but to escape by jumping off the building.
Although Su Zijin had also started to cultivate and had made quite some progress, she dared not jump off buildings like Mu Jinyu, and in the end, she could only watch him make a face at her and quickly run away.
It made her furious.
After getting angry, she couldn't help but burst out laughing.
This was the first time she had hit Mu Jinyu after leaving him for over a decade.
When Mu Jinyu was a child, he wasn't too mischievous, but he still got spanked by her a few times.
And after finding Mu Jinyu again, their mother-son relationship has always been a bit strange, a little cautiously maintained, not like a normal mother and son who play and scold freely.
But today, even though she was infuriated by Mu Jinyu, she also found the feeling of being a strict mother scolding the disobedient Mu Jinyu again.
It was quite nice.
...
Mu Jinyu left the family building and headed to his office.
It was already past seven in the morning.
He went to see if there were any issues needing his resolution from Mu Hongchen's side.
Also, to settle some scores with True Martial Hall.
Upon arriving at the office.
Mu Hongchen was already working. Seeing Mu Jinyu enter, she looked up at him, her lips curving up in a teasing smile on her charming face, and said, "Dragon Master, how was yesterday? Was it delightful?"
"Just like that…" Mu Jinyu chuckled in response.
Mu Hongchen had been at the scene the previous day and watched as Lin Qiaoxia confessed her feelings to Mu Jinyu. He initially refused to accept her as he did not wish to betray Gu Xiyan and others. Eventually, it was Gu Xiyan who forced him to accept Lin Qiaoxia and the others.
That really broadened her horizons.
She also thought Mu Jinyu was truly a scoundrel, but an impressive one at that.
He could actually make his own women ask him to deceive others!
Mu Hongchen wanted to tease Mu Jinyu a bit more, but he did not want to continue this topic and asked, "Aunt Mu, has there been anything needing my attention recently in the Dragon King Hall?"
Mu Hongchen immediately replied seriously, "There's nothing that requires your involvement, Dragon Master. They are all minor matters. Some people have been inquiring if the demons within the country have been dealt with, and they are also demanding protective talismans."
"As for important individuals from the Capital City's Temples, I assess the situation before deciding whether to provide them with protective talismans, and how many to give."
"But for True Martial Hall, I didn't distribute any, as you wiped them out completely yesterday."
Mu Jinyu understood that even though Dragon King Hall usually had many matters to handle, with Xiang Mantang having imprisoned all the rampaging demons in the country, there were not as many now.
All regions were gradually settling down.
Those who pretended to undergo demonization to commit crimes were also directly suppressed by the bearded officials from Yamen, not allowing them to act recklessly!
However, the situation with the True Martial Hall still needed to be handled properly.
Otherwise, if other forces saw True Martial Hall provoking Dragon King Hall without being penalized afterward, how many forces would want to bite them?
Mu Jinyu listened to Mu Hongchen's report, and after she finished speaking, he asked, "Aunt Mu, there must have been more experts in True Martial Hall than just those yesterday, right?"
"Indeed, there were." Mu Hongchen nodded and said, "That bearded man yesterday was only at the Completion Stage of Energy Transformation. He was merely a vice hall master of True Martial Hall and was previously a warrior at the Peak Dark Energy level."
"The hall master of True Martial Hall, he was originally at the Early Energy Transformation Stage. With the revival of Spiritual Energy amidst this dark turmoil, it seems he obtained some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and now he has reached the Peak Energy Transformation, not far from the God Realm. That's why he was so arrogant!"
Mu Jinyu nodded slightly, his eyes gleaming playfully as he said, "I see, no wonder they dared to puff themselves up and provoke me directly!"
Before the revival of Spiritual Energy, True Martial Hall was just a minor force, with a hall master only at Early Energy Transformation Stage, barely keeping themselves informed of the global situation.
They knew that the Old Dragon King of Dragon King Hall had died and that a new Dragon King had taken over, but they were completely unaware that the newly appointed, himself, had also reached the God Realm level with the revival of Spiritual Energy.
They thought he was young and at most proficient in Energy Transformation.
That's what emboldened them to think they could replace him!
They didn't know that the internal situation of the country was stabilizing and that the dark turmoil was nearing its end, all thanks to Xiang Mantang becoming even more formidable!
If they had known, would they have dared to be so arrogant?
