Chen Yue's complexion slightly changed, and she didn't expect Nie Yu to be so unreasonable, intending to bully the weak. She knew that Chen Mu in front of Nie Yu wasn't necessarily afraid, but if she were taken to the Heavenly Seal Sect, she would bring great trouble to Chen Mu.
After all, the Heavenly Seal Sect wasn't just any minor sect, but a grand Great Sect.
Moreover,
the key point was, for a moment Chen Yue even suspected that Nie Yu's target wasn't her at all but was actually aimed at Chen Mu. It just so happened that this time he forcefully concocted a somewhat plausible excuse. Otherwise, according to the rules of the Martial World, misfortune shouldn't extend to family members. Even now, with many fearing Chen Mu, they wouldn't easily use her or people like Xu Hongyu to plot against Chen Mu.
After all, once such a precedent was set, they could do it, Chen Mu could do it, and the Seven Profound Sect could do it too.
