Seeing the bewildered couple, Bai Juzheng explained helplessly:
"Little sister, you were still young before. After graduating from university and getting married, you haven't had any contact with your family for many years, so it's normal that you don't know. After all, it's difficult for outsiders to access this level of knowledge."
"But I want to tell you that there are many extraordinary people in this world, similar to the cultivators that Xiao Mo mentioned."
Hearing his brother-in-law's words, Shu Junhe was immediately dumbfounded.
If it weren't for knowing his brother-in-law's character and Chu Mo's previous performance...
He would definitely think that the other person also has something wrong with their head.
But as the head of the Bai family business, Bai Juzheng's words are absolutely credible, especially with the old man nodding in affirmation.
After the couple calmed down a bit, Bai Juzheng spoke again:
"According to my latest understanding, after Wang Shaobao was beaten to death, the Wang family patriarch went to the scene of the incident with their family's chief retainer, Leng Zhou."
"That Leng Zhou is a Foundation Establishment cultivator who has been cultivating for over two hundred years. Even a nation would value such a person highly."
"Compared to our family's revered Master Zuo Chan, he is many times more powerful."
"Even such a figure was defeated by Chu Mo in one move, and begged for mercy on the spot, willingly acknowledging Chu Mo as his master."
At this point, a hint of excitement and shock flashed in Bai Juzheng's eyes, and he said excitedly:
"To be able to successfully marry into such a family would be an incredible stroke of luck."
"Not only is it financially powerful and has a terrifying future, but it is also highly valued by the Dragon Kingdom's government."
"Most importantly, he is also a cultivator who has achieved success in his cultivation."
"To have achieved so much in one's twenties. What a terrifying future awaits!"
"If we could establish such a connection, both the Shu family and the Bai family would have a chance to become a true thousand-year-old aristocratic family, a terrifying family with a lineage of immortal cultivation!"
At this point, Bai Juzheng couldn't help but feel spirited and full of anticipation.
Given their status, they would naturally know that there are ancient cultivation sects in this world.
Unfortunately, they cherish their skills and are very selective in choosing disciples, strictly forbidding the transmission of their techniques to outsiders.
Even with the Bai family's capabilities, they could only collect some incomplete, low-level cultivation techniques, which were practically useless.
Don't even think about cultivating techniques that lead to Foundation Establishment or higher.
Therefore, they were extremely excited and overjoyed when they learned that Chu Mo had easily defeated Leng Zhou.
Seeing the stunned expressions on the faces of Shu Junhe and his wife, the old man made the final decision:
"Let them get engaged first, and then hold the wedding after Xiaoya graduates."
"As for Liu Ruyan, let Ju Zheng talk to her. As long as she is willing to leave Xiao Mo, she can name whatever conditions she wants."
"But remember, never force or coerce her, lest Xiao Mo misunderstand and hold a grudge."
Bai Juzheng nodded, then asked with concern:
"Dad, as far as I know, Xiao Mo and that woman have a very good relationship. She studies here, and I even bought her a villa to live in."
"What we can give her, she can probably get more from Xiao Mo, and she may not be willing to give it."
Hearing this, Shu Junhe, a fiercely protective father, felt his anger surge and couldn't help but roar:
"Severing ties with that woman is the bare minimum I can tolerate."
"If she's unwilling, I'll confront Chu Mo directly and make him choose between the two options."
"I can't let him continue to mess around outside after he marries Xiaoya."
Old Master Bai looked helpless, pondered for a moment, and then instructed his son:
"Since they have a good relationship, then you should try to persuade the woman from that perspective."
"Tell her about the situation Chu Mo will face in the future, and the help the Bai family can provide for him, and persuade her to let go."
Bai Juzheng nodded thoughtfully and said, "Alright, taking advantage of the shock of the Wang family incident, I'll go find her now and have a good talk with her."
After saying that, he got up and tried to leave.
"Dad, second brother, isn't it a bit too despicable of us to use that young girl's feelings to achieve our own goals?"
Bai Wanrou felt a little sorry for her and couldn't help but frown and interject.
The old man looked at her calmly and said indifferently:
"If she's willing to leave, we'll give her a huge amount of compensation, and what we're saying is all true."
"Now that Xiao Mo has completely offended the Wang family, it seems like it's all in the past, but as long as the Wang family still exists, this feud will continue."
"As one of the six great families, the Wang family's connections in the military, politics, and business circles are terrifying beyond your imagination."
"Xiao Mo is currently under Zhou Shouzhen's protection, so the Wang family doesn't dare to do anything to him. But once he steps down, will the country's attitude towards Xiao Mo still be the same?"
"Without the protection of the state, how can he, with his background and status, fight against the Wang family?"
"Therefore, a marriage alliance with us would also be of great benefit to Xiao Mo, as we can help the Chu family rise to prominence in the shortest possible time."
Bai Wanrou and her husband remained silent, because what the old man said was true.
...
Chu Mo, feeling uneasy, strolled around the back garden with the others for nearly an hour.
It must be said that the Bai family's back garden is truly vast, with all sorts of precious flowers and plants, artificial mountains and streams, pavilions and towers—it has everything imaginable.
Most extravagantly, there is also an artificial lake inside, making it resemble a royal garden.
But he wasn't really interested in sightseeing and seemed distracted throughout.
Shu Xiaoya thought he didn't like playing these games, so she took him back to the living room.
Just then, Old Master Bai and the others came out of the study. After chatting for a while, the old master asked with a smile:
"Xiao Mo, what do you think of Xiao Ya?"
Chu Mo quickly straightened up, glanced at Shu Xiaoya, and said seriously:
