Upon hearing these words, the faces of Mu Yuying and the others changed slightly, and the countenances of the other family members also turned less pleasant. They had not thought much of it at first, only feeling that the lessons from the elders were justified, that even if Han Yan could not complete the mission, he should have stated it openly. There was no need to feign injury to avoid punishment, and it was disrespectful to show such an attitude in front of several elders and the Family Head.
But hearing this, they felt that the actions of the Second Elder were somewhat despicable. Even if he did not get on with Han Yan and sought an opportunity to deal with him, he should not send his own family members to their deaths. As members of the Mu Family, who would want to be betrayed in such a manner?
