Mo Tu shook his head. "Even my Mo family doesn't know about such a secret. There's no such thing as an ultimate golden-armored man. It's just a lie told by that undercover agent."
That battle was extremely fierce, with almost all members of the Mo family dying in the battle. The Mo family patriarch was originally in seclusion, preparing for the Heavenly Tribulation.
The sect suffered a brutal massacre, and naturally could not stand idly by. As a result, they were besieged by four Yuanxiang Realm experts from the Gongshu family.
Fortunately, with the golden-armored man protecting him, Ancestor Mo Yuan managed to fight the four powerful figures to a draw.
Unexpectedly, the situation of being evenly matched suddenly changed. An arrow suddenly came from the sky, piercing through the ancestor's golden armor and seriously injuring him.
Seeing that the number of Mohist disciples was dwindling, the patriarch finally used a forbidden technique, which successfully protected the few remaining descendants.
However, Mo Yuan was also seriously injured and on the verge of death. Under the fierce attack of the four Yuanxiang Realm experts, his primordial spirit eventually dissipated.
No more than ten disciples of the Mohist school survived.
The golden-armored figures inside the gate were all destroyed, but the blueprints for some of the mechanical golden-armored figures fell into the hands of the Gongshu family, making them even more powerful than before!
After saying that, Mo Tu punched a large tree, breaking the tree that would take two people to hug.
Lan Hua asked in surprise, "Doesn't the Mo family have a protective formation? How could they have been so easily breached?"
"Yes, it exists, and it's an extremely powerful mechanism array in the Half-Heaven Realm, but it has already been tampered with by that spy."
The elaborate mechanical formation was activated, but it was quickly broken through by the four Yuanxiang Realm experts!
Lan Hua sighed, "I didn't expect that undercover agent to be so skilled!"
Mo Tu nodded. "That spy was named Gongshu Fan, and in the following hundred years, he became the head of the Gongshu family."
Moreover, thirty years ago, he successfully broke through to the Celestial Realm.
However, he did not enter the Heavenly Realm, but instead remained within his family, waiting for his descendants to break through so that he could then enter the Heavenly Realm!
Lan Hua said, "This is the foundation of a great family. There are always immortal Celestial Realm experts in the sect. As long as this sect doesn't do anything reckless, it will enjoy peace forever."
Therefore, Brother Mo, since you've embarked on your revenge, you can't avoid Gongshu Fan no matter what!
As long as Gongshu Fan lives, the Gongshu family will not fall.
Mo Tu was well aware of this.
Mo Tu said with a determined look, "The revenge has begun. Gongshu Fan must die, and the Gongshu family must perish!"
Lan Hua looked at Jian Qinyu and said, "Miss Qinyu, you should hurry back to Sword Tower. We are destined to be apart!"
Jian Qinyu's pretty face had regained its color. She knew that letting her leave at this time meant that the two of them must have something to plan that they didn't want her to know, which was a way of protecting both of them.
"Hmph, don't think I'll give up just because of this. Lan Hua, you wait and see!"
After saying that, Jian Qinyu said to Mo Tu, "I know you're going to do something big next."
However, you have already promised my second sister that you would return to Jianlou alive and marry her!
Mo Tu nodded. "I will!"
Watching Jian Qinyu leave, Lan Hua asked, "Brother Mo, what do you plan to do?"
"Lead the snake out of its hole!"
"I will use Gongshu Zhan's life to lure out the high-ranking members of the Gongshu family, and then kill them."
After saying that, Mo Tu took a jade pendant off Gongshu Zhan's body.
"This jade pendant is a symbol of Gongshu Zhan's status. If members of the Gongshu family see it, they will surely come to his rescue!"
Mo Tu summoned a communication jade talisman, and soon a young man appeared before the two of them.
"Two days later, deliver this jade pendant to the Gongshu family and tell them that Gongshu Zhan is in our hands. If they want to save him, they should go to the Silent Valley of Cangsang Mountain!"
The young man nodded slightly, then his figure flashed and he flew towards the Gongshu family.
Lan Hua saw that the disciple's cultivation was not weak, having reached the third level of the Dan Shen realm.
But so what? Even if he is a young and talented man, he is no match for the Gongshu family.
Unless, of course, the Mohists have a major backup plan that can stand up to the celestial being from the Gongshu family.
"Brother Lan, would you be interested in going to Cangsang Mountain together to witness the Mo family's revenge?" Mo Tu invited.
"go!"
The monstrous beast on his shoulder replied in one breath.
Two days later.
In the northeastern part of Beizhou, at Tianpan Mountain Mechanical City, lives the Gongshu family.
The patriarch, Gongshu Zang, sat in the main hall, his face full of worry, for he had just received news that his beloved grandson, Gongshu Zhan, had been captured.
There were two elderly men sitting below, their eyes sharp and revealing an extraordinary air. They were the eldest son, Gong Shuxian, and the second son, Gong Shushi.
"Zhan'er has been captured, and we are to go to Cangsang Mountain in Dongzhou tomorrow to ransom him. What do you two elders think?" Gongshuzang asked softly.
"Hmph, this villain is truly ignorant of his own limitations, daring to lay a hand on a descendant of the Gongshu family. He's simply asking for trouble."
"I'll personally lead the men there tomorrow. I want to see who dares to be so bold!"
The one speaking was the second eldest son, Shu Shi. He was a man with a fiery temper who could not tolerate any wrongdoing and would not allow the interests of the aristocratic families to suffer even the slightest loss.
"Second Elder, please don't act rashly. I have a feeling this matter is not simple!"
Gongshu Xian said in a deep voice: "Think about it, how many years has it been since the Gongshu family was ambushed?"
Everyone knows that my Gongshu family is a famous family in the Half-Heaven Realm.
Besides, Zhan'er's cultivation is not weak, and he also has a mechanical golden armor body for protection. Ordinary experts in the Refining Spirit Realm can't do anything to him.
Therefore, the one who captured Zhan'er must be a highly skilled cultivator.
This person knew the consequences of this matter were very serious, yet still went ahead with kidnapping Zhan'er; it seems their intentions were very targeted!
Gongshu Zang nodded in agreement, "That's right. My Gongshu family has never had any major enemies in the Half-Heaven Realm. So who exactly did it?"
"Did Zhan'er offend someone during the Red Dust Sword Pavilion's martial arts competition?"
Gongshu Shi snorted, "I think someone must have offended him. A few days ago, after the martial arts competition ended, this kid came back and asked me for Vajra Immortal Gold, saying that he wanted to improve the defense of the Golden Armor Man."
"It must be that Zhan'er was seeking revenge, which angered the enemy, resulting in his capture. That's why he's demanding a ransom from my family!"
Gongshu Zang exclaimed, "Oh, so that's how it is! Second Elder, do you know who Zhan'er was defeated by?"
"Lanhua!"
Gongshu Cang was taken aback. "Could it be Lan Hua, the archery and alchemy master who is famous throughout the Half-Heaven Realm and successfully passed the Tianyuan Cave trial?"
"If it wasn't him, then who could it be?"
"Lan Hua's reputation has risen again. I heard that his cultivation has reached the peak of the Refining God Realm. With just one strike, he crippled Zhan'er's golden-armored man."
That's why Zhan'er wouldn't let it go and insisted on getting the Vajra Immortal Gold from me!
Gongshu Xian nodded and said, "Second Elder's analysis makes sense. I think it was most likely that Lan Hua who did it."
This kid is not only a guest alchemist of the Xuan Yu Alliance, but also of the Duanmu family. He probably wants to use this background to rip off my Gongshu family and make a quick buck!
Gongshu Zang's eyes turned cold, and he snorted, "What suggestions do the two elders have?"
Gongshu Xian said, "In my opinion, this is just a minor squabble among the younger generation. Since it involves kidnapping and extortion, they should be eliminated directly."
However, this kid has two powerful forces backing him, so killing him is out of the question. I think I should step in, redeem Zhan'er, and then teach Lan Hua a good lesson.
"What does the patriarch think?"
Gongshu Zang nodded, "That's excellent, then I'll have to trouble the Grand Elder!"
