Chapter 1251: Enticing
"Third brother, my father's advancement is a natural process. What does it have to do with your friend? How can an ordinary Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation affect my father's advancement?"
Mo Shangzhi said disdainfully.
She felt that her third brother must have been attracted by the face of this female cultivator, which was why he said such irrelevant flattering words.
Mo Shangchen coughed lightly and said calmly:
"Little sister, before you talk about others, take a look at your own cultivation."
When Mo Shangzhi heard this, he immediately snorted coldly, glared at Lianyi who was watching the fun, turned his head away, and began to pay attention to his father's thunder tribulation.
"Don't blame me, Fellow Daoist Yilian!"
Mo Shangchen sent a voice message to apologize.
"It's okay. Your sister is right. I also feel that I am not capable of causing the thunder tribulation of a Spirit Severing Venerable."
Ripple said nonchalantly.
Mo Shangchen nodded, said no more, and turned his gaze to his father who was undergoing the tribulation.
Only he himself knew that it was because of the influence of Elaine, a person of great luck, that his father's thunder tribulation of advancement would be brought forward, and it seemed to be going very smoothly at the moment.
Mo Shangwei was still quite capable and successfully survived the sixty-nine thunder tribulations. A moment later, spiritual rain fell and a majestic forest appeared in the sky above the City Lord's Mansion, indicating that Mo Shangwei had successfully advanced to the Spirit Severing stage.
Lianyi felt emotional in her heart, the City Lord's Mansion did have a good foundation. In order to survive the tribulation, the City Lord used top-grade spiritual weapons to resist the thunder tribulation. It was precisely because of these good things that Mo Shangwei was able to hold on to the end.
After Mo Shangwei's body was infused with the spiritual rain, the scars on his body caused by the tribulation were repaired quickly, and his aura was visibly rising, finally freezing at the early stage of distraction. He opened his eyes and let out a clear whistle, telling everyone in Mo Shang City that he had successfully advanced, and then his figure flashed and returned to his own yard.
Lianyi also tactfully returned to her own residence so as not to disturb the family reunion. However, before returning to the yard, Lianyi asked Duoduo to keep an eye on the situation on the city lord's side.
Mo Shangwei was successfully promoted and his cultivation was very solid, so he did not need to go into seclusion to consolidate it. So he recruited his confidants to learn about what happened during his seclusion and the existence of Li Meng.
"Where is Li Meng now?"
"I have arranged for Miss Li Meng to live in a separate courtyard according to the Third Young Master's instructions."
After the butler finished speaking, he handed the token pendant to Mo Shangwei.
Seeing the familiar spiritual pendant, Mo Shangwei's expression finally changed. His fingers stroked a crack on the spiritual pendant, as if he was looking at another person through the spiritual pendant.
"Bring the child here. I want to see him."
"Yes, City Lord!"
As soon as the housekeeper saw the city lord's expression, he knew that the child was most likely the city lord's. Even if not, the child's mother had a close relationship with the city lord.
So he immediately went to Li Meng's yard and took Li Meng, who was counting flowers in the yard, to see the Lord of Moshang City.
When Li Meng saw Mo Shangwei, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes. She always felt that she seemed to have seen the extraordinary man in front of her.
"Ms. Li Meng, this is the mayor of Moshang City."
The butler reminded quietly.
"Long Li dreamed of the city lord."
Li Meng remembered Aunt Ding's instructions and bowed very politely.
She knew that the man in front of her was her real father. Whether she could survive, or live well, depended entirely on how the man in front of her treated her. However, this man was very different from what she had imagined.
"Li Meng, where is your mother?"
"My mother got sick and couldn't get up."
Li Meng's eyes darkened and she said sadly.
Because of her mother's departure, she was bullied more and more. Everyone thought she was a disaster and wished she would die soon. If Aunt Ding hadn't sent her out, she would have been bullied to death.
"come over."
Mo Shangwei waved to Li Meng.
Li Meng was a little at a loss. She looked up at the butler beside her, as if asking for his advice.
"Miss, the city lord wants to see you, please go over!"
The butler said gently.
Li Meng then slowly moved to Mo Shangwei's side, but she lowered her head and was afraid to look him in the face.
Mo Shangwei stretched out his hand and held Li Meng's wrist. A gentle spiritual power silently entered Li Meng's body, circulated in her body for a circle, and then withdrew.
"Butler, please send Li Meng back to rest first, don't neglect her."
Mo Shangwei frowned and said lightly.
"Yes, City Lord."
The butler also felt a little regretful. He had long known that Miss Li Meng was a mortal. She had no spiritual roots and was unable to practice at all. This was why the four young masters did not care about Li Meng's existence. Otherwise, she would probably not even be able to enter the City Lord's Mansion.
That night, Duoduo intercepted half of Lian Xiye's spiritual energy as usual. When she was about to return to her master, she felt that she was being watched.
Duoduo immediately burrowed into the ground and quickly escaped while asking Lianyi for help:
"Master, come and save Duoduo, I'm being targeted by the bad guys!"
"Why are you so careless?"
"I was very careful. I don't know how I was discovered."
"Come directly to me. I know who is targeting you."
"Yes, Master!"
Lianyi's spiritual awareness had already been spread out, so she was not surprised at all to see her plant pet being chased.
Duoduo rushed back to Lianyi's yard as fast as she could, then quickly wrapped herself around her master's wrist, turning herself into a bracelet with flowers and branches, restraining all her aura.
Mo Shangwei also appeared in Lianyi's yard. Seeing that the little thing he found belonged to the red-clothed female cultivator, he said in a somewhat cold voice:
"My fellow Taoist, my son invited you to the City Lord's Mansion as a guest, but you asked your pet to go around to get information. What is your intention?"
"The City Lord has misunderstood. My pet has not done anything to harm the City Lord's Mansion. It is just secretly watching my enemy."
Lianyi was dressed in a fiery red dress, standing in the moonlight, looking pretty and saying with a smile.
"The kid who is reaching the Nascent Soul stage?"
"Yes."
"He hasn't advanced yet, so you can just take revenge directly. There's no need to go through so much trouble."
Mo Shangwei said bluntly.
"My Lord City Lord, his death is not enough to appease my hatred. I want to make his life worse than death and waste his whole life."
Lianyi's voice was a little cold.
Then she changed the subject and said:
"After all, he is a disciple of the Yuntian Sect. I don't want to bring trouble to the City Lord's Mansion, nor do I want to disappoint Young Master Mo Shangchen's sincere invitation, so I used a more tactful way to deal with him. It's my fault for disturbing the City Lord!"
Lian Yi cupped his hands, and then continued:
"In order to make up for my mistake, I will help the city lord fulfill a wish."
"I am already the city lord, what else can I wish for?"
Mo Shangwei did not believe what the female cultivator in front of him said.
"How can there not be one? Isn't there one right in front of you?"
"What is it?"
Mo Shangwei asked calmly.
"Your mortal daughter, Li Meng."
Ripple said with a smile.
"What does this have to do with her?"
"Isn't she the child born to you by the city lord's favorite woman? Unfortunately, she has no spiritual roots and cannot cultivate. In a hundred years, she will turn into a handful of dust. Don't you feel sorry?"
