"Ancestor, this man is really trying to attract attention. He even dared to use your name to deceive and steal your reputation, and made you make a wasted trip. No matter who is from the He family, I will never let him off easily!" Seeing Mo Qingkuang coming back alone, Mo Gaoyi confirmed his previous guess and pointed at Mu Hanyan and shouted angrily.
"Oh?" Mo Qingkuang glanced at him.
"Grandfather, I know that you are a kind-hearted person and don't want to argue with such a junior, but Yanlin is of vital importance to our Mo family. It is even related to the prosperity and decline of our Mo family for hundreds of years to come. This person dared to use this matter to make fun of our Mo family and our ancestors. He must not be let off easily." Seeing that Mo Qingkuang did not comment, Mo Gaoyi suddenly felt a little uneasy, but he still spoke passionately.
"Why do I feel like you seem very happy?" Mo Qingkuang looked at Mo Gaoyi and said lightly.
"Uh..." Mo Gaoyi was stunned.
Indeed, he was very happy to see Mo Qingkuang coming back alone, and seemed to be a little too proud of himself.
Thinking of this, Mo Gaoyi broke out in a cold sweat again.
"Mo Li, you don't have to worry. Yanlin has been found." Mo Qingkuang ignored him and said to Mo Gaoli with a look of relief.
After hearing Mo Qingkuang's words, Mo Gaoyi froze in place.
"What... Found it, really found it?" Mo Gaoli had completely given up hope when he saw the ancestor coming back alone. He never expected this to be the result, and he couldn't even believe it.
"I did find him, but something went wrong with his cultivation. I just cleared his meridians for him and then sent him back to the clan to recuperate, so it took some time." No wonder it took him so long, it turned out that I was clearing Mo Yanlin's meridians and sending him home.
"I'll go see him." Mo Gaoli said and walked out. Over the past year, he missed his grandson so much that he almost went crazy.
"Wait, Lin'er is still resting. You won't be able to say anything if you go back now. You should at least thank him before leaving. Don't be impolite." Mo Qingkuang said.
Mo Gaoli then remembered that he had not said thank you yet, which was indeed rude.
"Thank you very much for your help, Master. I, Mo Gaoli, am extremely grateful. If you have any instructions in the future, I, Mo Gaoli, will be happy to help you." Mo Gaoli bowed deeply to Mu Hanyan. At this point, he remembered that he had overlooked something and said, "By the way, Master, I haven't asked for your name yet."
"I am Mu Hanyan, a junior. Senior, please don't be too polite." Mu Hanyan helped Mo Gaoli up and said with a smile.
Mu Hanyan, so he is Mu Hanyan! Mo Gaoyi began to grit his teeth again.
Mo Yanhong from Xiaocang City was severely bullied by Mu Hanyan, and was even cheated to death by him at the last auction. Mo Gaoyi had already made up his mind to teach him a severe lesson.
However, Mu Hanyan is not an ordinary child of aristocratic family after all, but the eldest grandson of Mu Beichen, the head of the Mu family. Even if he is the head of the Mo family, he cannot act rashly. More importantly, there are masters around Mu Hanyan. Even Qiu Gongsheng, who practiced the art of domineering body, was seriously injured by him with a single palm strike. It would be difficult for him to take action in private.
So although Mo Gaoyi had made up his mind, he had not yet thought of a better solution.
Unexpectedly, before he could even make a move, Mu Hanyan ruined his plans. Mo Gaoyi knew that with Mo Yanlin's return, it would be difficult for him to help his beloved son become the head of the family.
Looking at Mu Hanyan, Mo Gaoyi's eyes became even more vicious.
"You are from the Mu family. How is Mu Beichen related to you?" Mo Qingkuang had just returned to the capital and had never heard of the name of Mu Dawanku, so he asked thoughtfully.
"It's my grandfather." Mu Hanyan replied.
"So he is the descendant of an old friend. Beichen is really lucky to have such a descendant. Hahahaha." Mo Qingkuang laughed out loud.
Mu Hanyan gave a dry laugh, and when he thought that the little guy he was talking about was the white-haired grandfather in the family, he broke out in a cold sweat again.
"Hmph, he's still nothing but a brat in front of me." Xinghuan Qianji snorted coldly.
Mu Hanyan: "..."
"I remember the last time I saw your grandfather was nearly a hundred years ago. At that time, he was still clinging to his grandfather like a follower. As soon as he saw me, he came up to me and asked for candy. I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, his grandson has grown up so much." Mo Qingkuang said with emotion.
Mu Hanyan hadn't known that her grandfather had met Mo Qingkuang before, but after hearing him say that, she felt a much closer relationship. She no longer felt embarrassed that he called her grandfather "little guy." It couldn't be helped; her grandfather had pestered others for candy as a child. She hadn't expected her grandfather to have this hobby. She'd remember to buy him some when she got home.
"Okay, my Lin'er is still at home, so we'll go back first. Since you're Mu Beichen's grandson, I won't thank you. Just remember the favor." Mo Qingkuang, thinking of his great-grandson, walked out. Because of Mu Beichen, he didn't treat Mu Hanyan as an outsider at all.
Of course, no one would take a thank you seriously. In comparison, the favor is obviously much more valuable.
"Wait, Senior Mo." Mu Hanyan suddenly called out to Mo Qingkuang.
"Is there anything else?" Mo Qingkuang looked at Mu Hanyan in confusion.
"Senior Mo, you previously promised favors to Master Shen, Master Pu, Master Weng, and Master Ji, which means four favors. How come it became just one favor to me?" Since Mo Qingkuang didn't treat Mu Hanyan as an outsider and was not polite at all, Mu Hanyan certainly wouldn't be polite to him either.
"..." After so many years, this was the first time that Mo Qingkuang saw someone blackmailing him.
Looking at Mu Hanyan who was speaking, Shen Moce and the others were all sweating coldly. They didn't expect that Mu Hanyan was so bold as to hit Mo Qingkuang on the head with a bamboo stick.
"Senior Mo, am I wrong? It's clearly four favors, but how come it becomes one for me? Okay, you can say whatever you want, just consider it that I miscalculated." Mu Hanyan looked helpless.
"Okay, okay, what do you mean I can say whatever I want? What do you mean just assume you're wrong? It makes it sound like I'm cheating. As you said, I owe you four favors." Mo Qingkuang was stunned for a moment, then pointed at Mu Hanyan and said with a laugh.
"Ancestor." After hearing Mo Qingkuang's words, Mo Gaoyi's face changed again.
The intrigues among the eight great families have been going on for a long time. The Mo and Mu families have also fought privately for power, but they have always been relatively amicable. However, since Mo Gaoyi became the head of the family, the Mo and Mu families have become incompatible. However, as both are members of the eight great families, no matter how much they disagree, they will not publicly tear each other apart. Perhaps the common people are unaware of this, but the eight great families and other wealthy and prestigious families are all well aware of the feud between the Mo and Mu families.
Although Mo Qingkuang has been in seclusion and practicing Buddhism for hundreds of years without caring about worldly affairs, he is still the ancestor of the Mo family. He actually owes Mu Hanyan four favors. It will be difficult for him to become an enemy of the Mu family in the future.
