Turns Out, I’m In A Villain Clan! Chapter 741 An Unusual Welcome

Ouyang Jiuding immediately led the way.

The journey to the Mu Clan didn't take too long.

After all, they had Golden Immortal experts who could tear open space which crossed thousands of miles.

It didn't take long for them to reach the Mu Clan's territory from the border.

The Mu Clan was no longer the same Mu Clan from two years ago.

In only two years, the entire territory of the Mu Clan had undergone an astonishing transformation.

What had once been a relatively quiet and peaceful territory had now completely flourished.

Massive buildings could be seen everywhere.

The streets were wide and bustling with activity.

Countless cultivators moved through the streets.

Shops, auction houses, pill stores, and various other establishments had appeared throughout the territory.

The entire territory gave off a prosperous atmosphere.

The current Mu Clan territory was already beginning to catch up with the capital city of the Desolate Heaven Empire.

This transformation had happened in only two years.

And the reason was obvious.

The Mu Clan now had multiple Grandmaster Alchemists.

Because of this, the Mu Clan had become a force that could influence not only the Desolate Heaven Empire, but the entire Eastern Region.

Even the Emperors of the surrounding Empires had to show the Mu Clan some respect.

After all, who would want to offend an Alchemist force capable of refining pills even better than the Vermillion Pill Empire?

Unless they were already enemies of the Mu Clan, no one would willingly provoke them.

The Mu Clan was protected by a Grade-6 Formation, and it also prevented cultivators from tearing open space and entering the territory directly.

Of course, if the Golden Immortal experts from the Cui Clan tried their best, they could forcefully break through the formation and enter.

However, this time, instead of using such a brute-force method, they chose to be more civil and enter through the main entrance.

They walked toward the main entrance of the Mu Clan.

The moment they arrived, several guards immediately noticed them.

The guards quickly approached.

"Stop!"

One of the guards stepped forward and blocked their path.

The surrounding guards also became alert.

Ouyang Jiuding's eyes immediately flashed with excitement.

He had been waiting for this.

Naturally, they didn't have any invitation, and their identities, especially those of the Cui Clan, were impossible for the guards to verify.

So, the guards would definitely stop them, and the Cui Clan wouldn't simply stop just because they were told to.

Therefore, he knew that a conflict was inevitable.

The leading guard glanced at the group.

His gaze passed over Ouyang Jiuding before finally landing on Cui Yudan.

"Who are you? And what are you looking for?"

Ouyang Jiuding's eyes narrowed slightly.

He had expected the guards to be more arrogant.

Perhaps they would even refuse to let them enter outright.

But they hadn't.

"We came here to meet someone."

Cui Yudan answered.

The guard frowned slightly.

"Who?"

Cui Yudan was about to answer.

But before he could speak, Ouyang Jiuding stepped forward.

"We came here to meet Miss Mu Linyue."

The guard's expression immediately changed slightly.

"Miss Mu?"

Ouyang Jiuding nodded.

"That's right. We came here specifically to meet her."

The guards exchanged glances.

The leading guard looked at Cui Yudan and the others once again.

"And you are…?"

"We are from the Cui Clan!"

Cui Yudan answered proudly.

While those words meant little in the Eastern Region, they carried enormous weight in the Central Glorious Continent.

It was almost like declaring that they were from the Imperial Family.

The impact was much greater than being a prince or princess.

But Ouyang Jiuding knew that these ignorant guards wouldn't recognize them at all.

Much less these guards—even many powerful cultivators in the Eastern Region didn't really know about the Cui Clan or any of the major Clans from the Central Glorious Continent in general.

After all, the Central Glorious Continent was simply too far away.

There had never been anyone from the Bai Clan who had ventured to the Central Glorious Continent and returned.

So how could they know anything about the Cui Clan?

Therefore, Ouyang Jiuding was certain that the guards wouldn't recognize the Cui Clan.

But—

To Ouyang Jiuding's complete dismay—

Nothing of the sort happened.

The guards didn't become confused.

They didn't question their identity.

And they certainly didn't become hostile.

Instead, the leading guard immediately put on a flattering expression.

"Oh, so you are from the esteemed Cui Clan. Sorry for keeping you waiting here!"

"Please follow me to the hall. We will inform the Clan Leader of your arrival and immediately bring in Young Miss."

The guard spoke respectfully.

Then, without asking for further verification, he turned around and began leading them inside.

Ouyang Jiuding was completely dumbfounded by the scene.

"What?"

He almost couldn't believe what he was seeing.

That was it?

They didn't even verify their identity?

They didn't even know whether they had an invitation or identification that could be used to verify their identities.

How could a Clan like the Mu Clan be so lax with its security?

Ouyang Jiuding's expression became strange.

For a moment, a ridiculous thought even flashed through his mind.

Could these guards secretly be enemies of the Mu Clan?

Perhaps they deliberately wanted to lead unknown outsiders into the Mu Clan's territory.

Ouyang Jiuding's brows furrowed.

Could it be that they actually recognized the Cui Clan?

As far as he knew, no one from the Bai Clan had ever ventured to the Central Glorious Continent and returned.

The Eastern Region had very little knowledge about the major factions of the Central Glorious Continent.

So how could these ordinary guards know about the Cui Clan?

Meanwhile, Cui Yudan and the other members of the Cui Clan didn't think much about it.

To them, this was completely normal.

After all, the same thing happened in the Central Glorious Continent.

When people heard the name Cui Clan, they naturally showed respect.

Therefore, they simply assumed that the reputation of the Cui Clan had spread even to this so-called remote Eastern Region.

Cui Yudan calmly followed the guard.

The other members of the Cui Clan did the same.

Ouyang Jiuding naturally had no choice but to follow them.

However, his expression remained somewhat strange.

Something about this situation didn't feel right.

As the guard led them toward the inner territory of the Mu Clan—

Another guard quietly took out a Transmission Jade.

He quickly injected his Qi into it.

Then, a message was sent.

"Clan Leader, an unknown group has arrived. And they want to see Young Miss!"
