Chapter 945 Grandpa
Feng Wuhen smiled slightly upon hearing this, a hint of deep meaning flashing in his eyes. "Yes, the Taixu Feng Clan and Buli City do not have any old ties, but I, Feng Wuhen, have always admired those with courage and determination. Seeing this friend remain calm and composed in the face of someone from the Ninth Heaven today, I admire him deeply, and so I am willing to help."
He paused, his tone carrying some profound meaning: "What's more, the Phantom Spirit Pearl is of great significance. Since the True God values it so much, there must be a mystery behind it.
Although my Taixu Feng clan does not interfere in the affairs of the Nine Heavens, we do not wish to see the continent's situation destabilized by a single event. If we can help Young Master Luo resolve this calamity, perhaps we can also bring peace to the continent."
Luo Li's eyes flashed with thought upon hearing this, and then she smiled calmly, "Young Master Feng truly has the world in his heart. However, regarding the matter of the Phantom Spirit Pearl, I have my own plans. If the time comes when I need your help, Luo Li will definitely remember what you said today."
Feng Wuhen nodded slightly, his tone gentle: "That's very good. If you need anything, please feel free to ask."
Shi Heng stood aside, his eyes sweeping between Feng Wuhen and Luo Li. A hint of deep meaning flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say much.
After a moment, Feng Wuhen bowed and said goodbye: "Now that the matter is settled, I will not stay any longer. Young Master Luo Li, His Excellency Shi Heng, goodbye."
He thought to himself: We will see each other again soon.
Luo Li and Shi Heng returned the greeting at the same time and watched Feng Wuhen leave.
Luo Li narrowed her eyes. It seemed that Taixu Feng Clan had been dissatisfied with Jiuchongtian for a long time.
After Feng Wuhen's figure disappeared outside the hall, Shi Heng slowly spoke: "A Li, Feng Wuhen is a man of deep thoughts. We must be on guard against him."
Luo Li nodded slightly and said calmly, "Master, don't worry. I know what's going on. He's helping me today simply to use me to contain the Nine Heavens, or perhaps he has other plans. However, we have no conflict with the Taixu Feng Clan at the moment, so there's no need to make him an enemy for now."
When Shi Heng heard this, a trace of approval flashed in his eyes: "I feel relieved that you can be so clear about it."
Song Wanbai smiled and said, "Well, today wasn't as thrilling as we imagined. I'm afraid it was Ah Li's identity that scared them."
Luo Li smiled softly. Shi Heng glanced at Luo Li and said, "The Master of Qingfeng Valley should have arrived at the City Lord's Mansion by now. Ah Li, would you like to go and meet him?"
Luo Li's eyes moved, and she curled her lips into a smile, "Okay."
"Okay," Shi Heng nodded, "Let's go, there shouldn't be any problems here for the time being."
The master and the disciple smiled at each other, understanding each other tacitly.
At the same time, Youxuan and Longyan looked extremely gloomy after leaving the auction house.
Long Yan gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't expect Luo Li to be so arrogant, even daring to disobey the orders of a True God! Does she really think that with Bulicheng and her status, she can compete with the Nine Heavens?"
Youxuan snorted coldly, his tone carrying a hint of coldness: "She is just relying on her talent to look down on others. If the True God is really angry, then Bulicheng will be nothing more than an ant."
Long Yan frowned and said, "But the Lord Divine Master hasn't given us any divine revelation, so we can't force our way in. Are we just going to go back and report like this?"
A fierce look flashed in Youxuan's eyes. "Of course not. Since Luo Li refuses to hand over the Phantom Spirit Pearl, we must find another way. Although the True God hasn't said it explicitly, if we can bring back the Phantom Spirit Pearl, it will definitely be a great achievement."
The Mu family, Wanshenling and other forces had been following behind him without saying a word, but when they heard what he said, their eyes moved.
When Long Yan heard this, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes: "You mean..."
You Xuan sneered: "Look for an opportunity, take action in secret, and force her to hand over the Phantom Spirit Pearl. If she still refuses, then..."
He didn't finish his words, but Long Yan already understood what he meant. The two looked at each other and saw ruthlessness in each other's eyes.
However, they didn't know that Luo Li had already anticipated their thoughts and was quietly waiting for their next move.
A big drama with undercurrents is quietly unfolding.
On the other side, the City Lord’s Mansion.
Luo Li was not nervous at the moment. She was actually a little curious about what kind of person her cheap grandfather was.
According to rumors, Mu Zhengnian is a great lord-level alchemist with a changeable temper and unparalleled alchemy skills. My brothers also say that he is a little old man with a bit of a bad temper.
Luo Li raised her eyebrows and continued walking forward.
In the hall, Mu Zhengnian nervously adjusted his mustache and straightened his collar, "Mu Chi, how do you think I am now?"
Mu Chi said helplessly: "Father, why are you so nervous? Xiaoli won't change her attitude because of what you wear. You just need to wait for her to come over. There's no need to be so shy."
"Hey," Mu Zhengnian threw his cane to the ground, his beard twitching in anger, "You little brat, how can you talk like that! I should have asked your eldest and second brothers to come earlier!"
Mu Chi spread his hands and said, "That can't be helped. My elder and second brothers have been so busy lately, so I have to come with you."
"You little bastard." Mu Zhengnian cursed.
Although Mu Zhengnian was cursing Mu Chi, his hands did not stop moving. He glanced at the door from time to time, afraid of missing the moment when Luo Li came in.
Seeing this, Mu Chi couldn't help but shake his head and smile, thinking that his father was usually very majestic, but why did he act like a helpless child in front of his granddaughter?
At this moment, light footsteps were heard outside the door. Mu Zhengnian immediately straightened his back and coughed calmly, but his eyes involuntarily looked towards the door.
Luo Li, wearing a lavender dress, walked in calmly. Her eyes swept across the hall and finally landed on Mu Zhengnian.
"Third uncle." Luo Li nodded slightly, her voice clear but polite.
Mu Chi smiled and stood up, "Xiao Li, you're here, come and sit down."
He glanced at his father and said softly, "This is my father, your mother's father, your grandfather."
Mu Zhengnian was speechless for a moment, and all the words he had prepared were stuck in his throat.
He opened his mouth, but in the end he could only say: "Come on, sit down."
Mu Chi watched from the side and shook his head. He couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Xiao Li, father has been looking forward to seeing you for a long time. Today, he specially asked someone to bring a lot of snacks from our Qingfeng Valley. Come and try them."
Luo Li nodded, walked to a chair nearby and sat down, but her eyes were still on Mu Zhengnian.
Her impression of her grandfather mostly came from descriptions by others, but now that she saw him with her own eyes, she felt a little surprised.
Although Mu Zhengnian looked serious, there was a subtle gentleness in his eyes as he looked at her.
They look alike, they really do.
Luo Li's appearance is three-quarters similar to her mother's, especially her eyes, which are seven-quarters like Mu Wanqing's.
Mu Zhengnian's eyes were slightly red. It was really Xiaoqing's daughter, his granddaughter.
