"Mo...Lord Mo."
"Do you know me?" Mo Juren has not appeared for many years, but the other party recognized him at a glance, which was a bit surprising.
"Yes...yes." The woman was obviously a little nervous, and her delicate body could not help but tremble slightly.
"Are you scared?" Mo Juren waved his hand to the shopkeeper on the side. The latter obviously noticed that the atmosphere was wrong and dared not stay longer. He immediately said goodbye and left, even taking away the waiters outside.
"I..." The woman opened her mouth, but suddenly there was a flash of light all over her body, shooting towards the window. Unfortunately, before he could escape a few steps, a cold shout suddenly came from his ears. In an instant, the sea of consciousness was violently turbulent, and the whole person fell to the ground with a plop.
"Elixir Formation Stage!" The woman exclaimed loudly, resisting the dizziness in the sea of consciousness.
"Tell me, why did you do something like that and what was the purpose?" Mo Juren took a sip from the tea bowl and asked directly.
"Why? Is it wrong to like someone?" the woman asked back.
"Like it?" Mo Juren glanced at Qi Yunxiao, who was short and stocky and had an average appearance, shook his head slightly and said,
"My patience is limited, and I don't have time to play riddles with you. If you don't want to tell the truth, that's fine. I happen to know some soul-searching techniques, so don't force me to use them on you."
"You..." Such cold and ruthless words immediately frightened the woman's heart. Searching for the soul? She knew very well that although people who had experienced it could survive, their intelligence would be damaged and life would be worse than death.
She had a certain understanding of this Mr. Mo Lou, but he had always been kind, friendly, and approachable. However, she never expected that the other person would be so cruel and ruthless, and would use this kind of behavior if they disagreed with each other. A vicious technique.
"Brother Qi..." The woman was anxious and could only shout to Qi Yunxiao who was not far away. The latter opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
Obviously, Qi Yunxiao's heart is extremely complicated for this woman. I still vaguely remember the time when the two hit it off and had similar interests, and a deep friendship was formed at that time. Now, having that kind of relationship with him again, even though it was for ulterior motives, still made her heart tangled.
Seeing this scene, Mo Juren couldn't help but narrowed his eyes. This indecisive character is really hopeless. Could he be trying to plead for mercy?
Fortunately, Qi Yunxiao didn't say anything after all.
When she didn't get a response, the woman couldn't help but smile sadly. She still overestimated her weight in the other person's heart.
"Whether the seniors believe it or not, the little girl is sincere to her elder brother. Although he has an ordinary appearance, he is kind-hearted and sincere in his treatment of others. His talent in the art of weapon refining is also outstanding..."
"So you knew that he had someone you liked, but you still planted a 'mind charm' on him? Then you deliberately set up a trap to lure him in, and finally forced him to submit? Is this what you call liking?" I really can't hear it. Dismissing the other party's hypocritical remarks, Mo Juren interrupted with a sneer.
"I didn't plant that Gu worm..." After hearing the other party's sarcastic words, the woman quickly opened her mouth to explain. However, as soon as she said it, she suddenly thought of something, her face suddenly changed, and then she fell silent.
"Not you?" Mo Juren narrowed his eyes and asked,
"Who is that?"
"Yes...yes..." The woman hesitated in her words, and her expression showed unconcealable fear.
"Why, is the other party so scary? Or is Mr. Mo too gentle, which gave you some illusion?" Mo Juren's eyes were cold and he continued to ask,
"You don't think I'm discussing this with you, do you?"
"It's late... I don't dare..." The woman instantly realized that her current situation was not good. If the other party's threat just now was not a joke, then his final outcome would not be any better than offending the person behind him.
Thinking of this, he immediately made a decision in his heart and continued,
"Senior has learned clearly that it's not that the little girl didn't tell her, but that the person involved is too powerful and her background is not simple. If she tells it, not only will the little girl's life be at risk, but even the senior will be angered."
"Really?" Mo Juren's eyes flashed slightly and then he said,
"You may say so, but Mo is also very curious. What kind of existence can actually threaten me?"
"It's Yang Xiong, or rather Yang Wanshan behind him, the elder of Shenbing Pavilion." The woman finally said it, with a trace of sadness on her face, as if she expected what she would face next.
"Yang Wanshan, the elder of Shenbing Pavilion?" Mo Juren was startled when he heard the woman's words. He didn't care about Yang Xiong, but was more concerned about the latter. There are three elders in Shenbing Pavilion, for example, Wang Ping's grandfather is one of them. However, I have never heard of an elder named Yang.
Suddenly, he suddenly thought of something, turned to look at Qi Yunxiao aside, and asked again,
"But people from the main sect?"
"Yes." Qi Yunxiao instantly understood that Senior Mo had not come back in these years and was not very clear about some specific changes within the sect, so he quickly continued to explain,
"Yang Xiong is an weapon refiner with a cultivation level in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. His uncle Yang Wanshan is a true master of weapon refinement in the late stage of Core Formation. He followed Master Xuanhuo to the branch sect five years ago. Qi Yiyi had extraordinary achievements and was arranged to enter the Shenbing Pavilion to replace the departed Elder Huang and become one of the elders.
In addition, these two people are members of the Yang family, a cultivating family in Tianluo Kingdom. There seems to be an ancestor in the family who is in the early stage of Nascent Soul..."
"The Yang family!" Mo Juren looked slightly surprised, but he was not unfamiliar. When I stayed in Qiling Mountain for ten years, I didn't just practice in seclusion. I also had a general understanding of the main sect's situation. As one of the several Yuanying families in the sect, the Yang family naturally knew about it.
However, he asked himself that he had never dealt with the other party, let alone offended him, so why would the children of his family take action against his subordinates?
Yang Xiong, a monk in the middle stage of foundation building, obviously did not dare to do such a thing. It must have been ordered by Yang Wanshan. It’s just unclear whether this is Yang Wanshan’s personal behavior or the Yang family behind it?
After thinking for a while, he preferred the former. After all, his information is not a secret. Most people know about his relationship with the Han family. The ancestor of the Han family has condensed Yuanying and became one of the Supreme Elders of the Yuling Sect. His influence in the main sect is not Kidding.
In this way, the Yang family will definitely have some scruples and should not have any thoughts about him.
On the other hand, Yang Wanshan, knowing these things, still set up a trap for Qi Yunxiao, which is interesting. Everyone here in the branch sect knew that the latter was his subordinate, so attacking him was obviously a slap in the face.
"Tell me the whole story in detail, and also tell me your purpose. Why do you want to attack Qi Yunxiao?" Mo Juren asked again.
"I don't know the purpose either." The woman shook her head slightly and continued,
"As for the beginning and end of the matter, we have to start from a year ago. That day, Yang Xiong found me and threatened..."
In the woman's narration, she was also a victim and was coerced into doing so by the other party.
She even made her attitude clear. Although she had already fallen in love with Qi Yunxiao at first sight, because she knew he had a sweetheart and decisively rejected her, she understood the other person's intentions and had no intention of getting entangled again. The proof is in the connections.
Unfortunately, God did not follow people's wishes, and she didn't know how Yang Xiong came to know about this and threatened her. With no choice but to act in accordance with the other party's instructions.
"Just coercion? No inducement?" Mo Juren's eyes flickered and he asked again.
"What inducement is there?" The woman shook her head bitterly and continued,
"His uncle is an elder in the late stage of pill formation, and behind him is a family in the Nascent Soul stage. How can I, a small monk in the foundation establishment stage, resist? If he doesn't obey, even if he won't kill me, the suppression alone will be unbearable.
I am not alone. I have relatives and friends behind me. Faced with such a terrifying existence, what else can I do but surrender? "
After a pause, he seemed to have thought of something, and continued,
"Although I don't know the real purpose of the other party, I have some guesses. There has been no news from my seniors these days, and Tianhua Building's business is booming, and the benefits gained are huge. It is inevitable that someone will be ready to take action.
After the Han family left five years ago, the top management added many people from the main sect. They were not on the same side as the branch sect. It is normal for them to be greedy when they see such benefits. "
This analysis impressed Mo Juren. Although he had already guessed this, it was extremely rare for the other party to think of this and analyze it in such a coherent manner.
However, it's useless no matter how good the other party's words are. He can't completely believe it. Suddenly he flipped his hand, and a silver talisman appeared, and then said,
"This is the heart-asking talisman. Are you willing to take the test?"
"I do." The woman agreed without any hesitation, which once again exceeded Mo Juren's expectations. Naturally, he would not give up and directly activated the talisman and placed it on the opponent's shoulder.
Next came the test process. Only now did Mo Juren know the woman's name, Feng Yue, who came from a small and inconspicuous family. His father was originally a low-level disciple at the peak of Qi Refining in Spirit Beast Mountain. Because he failed to build the foundation after many attempts, he voluntarily gave up and entered the secular world to get married and have children.
The effect was quite good. Many of the children born had extraordinary spiritual roots and aptitudes, and all of them entered the sect. Feng Yue is considered to be the most qualified among them. He succeeded in building a foundation at a young age, and because of his outstanding talent in weapon refining, he became a weapon refiner in the Divine Weapon Pavilion.
It is not difficult to understand why the other party fell in love with Qi Yunxiao, but stopped entangled with him after he was clearly rejected. After all, he still has the burden of the family's rise behind him, and it is impossible to focus on the relationship between men and women.
I just didn't expect that ten years later, the incident would still reach the ears of interested people, and then it would be exploited.
After some testing, there was generally no problem. Even the matter of 'mind-obsessed' was indeed not the fault of the other party. As for who it is, it's actually not difficult to guess. It must be one of the uncle and nephew from the Yang family.
In addition, the other party wanted to run away as soon as she saw him, and she also didn't think highly of him. For the most advantageous consideration, she made the choice with her feet.
"It's realistic enough!" Mo Juren sneered.
Instead of dwelling on the matter, he noticed a detail. That is, although Feng Yue obeyed Yang Xiong's order to set up a trap for Qi Yunxiao, he ultimately committed himself to the other party. However, in his heart he was not repulsed, but rather pleased.
When he heard this, Mo Juren couldn't help but be stunned and looked at Qi Yunxiao aside, who had an extremely complicated expression. It would be fine if he was just being forced, or doing it for profit. This kind of approach with sincere emotions made him feel a little at a loss what to do.
"So, the other party asking you to set up Qi Yunxiao is just the first step. Are there other instructions after that?" After the test, Mo Juren asked again.
"This is my guess." Feng Yue nodded slightly and continued,
"However, it has only been half a month since the incident happened, and the other party did not come to me immediately."
After hearing all the ins and outs, Mo Juren suddenly fell silent, and kept turning the tea cup with his palm, falling into deep thought.
It is not yet completely certain whether the other party's goal is Tianhua Tower. However, it should be close to ten, and the reason why I started with Qi Yunxiao may be out of testing to see the reaction of the power behind Tianhua Tower.
After all, although the Han family has left, the Wang family and the Bai family are still there, and there are many intricate connections within the sect. If Xin Ruyin becomes angry out of shame and asks the two major families or even these forces to help, there may be some trouble.
And if you choose to be patient, it means that the forces behind Tianhua Tower are not that scary, or that the Han family has become a mess after leaving, so there is no threat, and you can continue to take action.
These are all his analyses. Whether they are right or wrong can be known by verifying them.
Now he has two choices. One is to swallow his anger and forget about it.
After all, the most important prerequisite for the other party to be interested in Tianhua Tower is that he has not returned for many years, so it is normal to covet him. The forces of the Tianhua Tower group have no core and are easier to break.
But now that he has returned safely and has become a monk in the alchemy stage, everything is naturally different. I think the other party will definitely stop immediately after learning the news.
There are pros and cons to doing this. The cons are naturally that it leaves people with a weak image and makes them feel extremely aggrieved.
There are also advantages, that is, the turmoil can be calmed down quickly. After all, the Yang family is also a Yuanying family. It is a 'smart move' to turn conflicts into friendship.
The second is to choose to be tough and come directly to the door to make the matter bigger. Although the Yang family will definitely be offended afterwards, it can serve as a warning to the monkeys. It is inevitable to leave frequently in the future, and no one will dare to have other ideas again.
More importantly, he is not the kind of cowardly character. If someone dares to stretch out his claws, he will naturally take revenge. This can not only make you feel more comfortable, but also act as a great deterrent.
Not only Yang Wanshan, but also the Wang family, Bai family and other side branches will also restrain their minds because of this.
"Pa..." With a slap on the table, Mo Juren stood up and said coldly,
"Is Yang Wanshan still in the Shenbing Pavilion now?"
"Senior, is he planning to..." Qi Yunxiao seemed to have thought of something, and his expression changed slightly. Feng Yue on the side was no exception, and his face was extremely pale. She had just told everything. If Yang Wanshan knew about it, he would definitely not let her go. It doesn't matter if I die, but what should I do with my parents and brothers at home?
"Not only did he plant a poisonous poison in you, but he also went to great lengths to set up a trap to deal with you. He obviously had an ulterior motive. In this case, Mo naturally wanted to 'communicate'."
"He is a late-stage pill-forming monk. With his current strength, it would be too risky to go there rashly." Qi Yunxiao was obviously worried and quickly tried to dissuade him.
"Is he here?" Mo Juren frowned slightly.
"Yes, but..."
"It's nothing, it's just dead bones in the grave. I'm afraid he will do something." Mo Juren sneered, not taking it to heart at all, and continued,
"Take her and come with me."
