As soon as these words came out, Mu Chen almost threw out the brocade box in his hand.
"What's going on? How could senior give me such a valuable thing? You must have made a mistake!"
No, this thing can no longer be described as valuable, it has no value at all! So there must be something wrong!
"There is no mistake. It does belong to my brother. He won it with his strength."
Mu Xi was smiling. Judging from her expression, she felt proud and happy from the bottom of her heart.
"Won by strength?"
Mu Chen couldn't remember when he had fought for this kind of thing, but he looked at Mu Xi who was standing next to him, and then thought of the timing of Jupiter Jue giving this brocade box, his eyes immediately locked on Mu Xi, and he asked in surprise, "Could it be?"
A fight with you?”
Mu Xi nodded and said, "Grandpa Zu said that when the battle between my brother and me comes to an end, the candidate for the next master of the Tianji Pavilion will have been confirmed; the one who won in the end is my brother, so the next master of the Tianji Pavilion will be my brother."
"..."
Isn't this nonsense? As a person who has never lived in Tianji Pavilion, what capital does he have to inherit the position of the leader of Tianji Pavilion? What's more, he doesn't feel that this kind of "gift" determines the path of others without asking others' wishes.
Half happy.
"no."
Without hesitation, Mu Chen said solemnly, "Thanks to my senior for looking up to me, this important task is too heavy for me, and I'm afraid I can't bear it. In fact, in terms of qualifications, I think you are the best choice."
With that said, Mu Chen wanted to hand the brocade box back to Mu Xi, but when he handed it over, Mu Xi didn't reach out to take it for a long time. Instead, he lowered his head and said, "This is Grandpa's decision. Then
It already belongs to my brother, Xiao Xi can’t take it back.”
As expected, it is not difficult to see from the frequency with which Mu Xi mentions the ancestor of Tianji that this senior has a very high status in her heart. It is not an exaggeration to say that he has faith. Let her take back this inheritance token.
Let her go against the decision of Patriarch Tianji. But this is not
There is no room for reversal. From the ancestor's intention of letting Xiao Xi compete with him, we can know that Mu Xi also meets the qualifications of the successor to the master of Tianji Pavilion. No, it should be said that Mu Xi is the truly qualified successor, and he
, more like an examiner who tests Mu Xi.
"That's all."
Not wanting to see Mu Xi in trouble, Mu Chen sighed and put the brocade box into the storage ring, touched Mu Xi's little head and said, "I will keep this here for the time being, and I will make plans when the time is right.
"
Having said that, Mu Chen has decided to exchange the item for Jupiter Jue when he sends Mu Xi home in the evening. He does not want to carry such a heavy thing with him at all times. After all, he has already carried too much weight on his shoulders.
If you bear too much burden, if you add a little more, it will already exceed the limit, let alone this mountain?
"Um!"
On this side, seeing Mu Chen take back the brocade box, a look of joy appeared on her face again. She didn't know whether she deliberately ignored the second half of Mu Chen's words, or she thought it was just like this. Mu Chen expressed helplessness about this, and she didn't know
Why, seeing Mu Xi's loss because of him, he felt an inexplicable feeling of guilt in his heart, as if he had hurt an innocent heart. Inexplicably, mixed with this feeling, Mu Chen suddenly felt confused and wondered about a question.
"Xiao Xi, you have been calling me brother since the beginning. Could it be that we are brothers and sisters?"
