"Fifth Miss, you are slandering me! When did I ever send someone to assassinate Master Mo?"
"That's strange, Master Xu. Your housekeeper said the man was killed by a guest of our Mo family, so we should have listened to you and handed him over. But when we said you sent someone to assassinate my father, you said it was slander. I saw clearly at the time that the person who assassinated my father was someone from your Xu family!"
"You... Fifth Miss, please stop being unreasonable!"
"Master Xu, I should be the one saying this to you! Commander Mo has made it very clear. If you have evidence to prove that your son was killed by a guest of our Mo family, then not only this caravan that has surrendered to our Mo family, but also Commander Mo will be at your disposal.
But if you can't find evidence, take your people and get out of here immediately! This is the Mo family's territory, not your Xu family's territory, you can't run wild here! "
"Fifth sister, no matter what, Master Xu was angry and mad because of his son's death, so he offended my Mo family like this. This is understandable. How can you be so unreasonable?
Now that the four major families are about to unite, you must not allow any cracks in the alliance between the four major families to appear because of a mere two hundred people, otherwise the consequences will be something you cannot afford to bear."
"Third sister, don't try to scare me with the alliance of the four great families. Is there a family called the Xu family among the four great families? The death of Mr. Xu's son is certainly worthy of sympathy, but he came to my Mo family and made trouble without any evidence. Do you really think that all my Mo family members are dead?
If our Mo family can't even refuse such an unreasonable request for the sake of that bullshit alliance, and let a nameless individual with a mere thirty or so mercenaries come to our Mo family to show off his power, and even execute our Mo family deputy commander and guests on the spot, then we don't need this alliance anymore!"
"Hmph, it's so easy for you to say it. Do you dare to say the same thing in front of your father?" Mo Qing was so angry at the sharp-tongued Mo Xin that he sneered with a twisted face.
"Why shouldn't she dare?" A deep and majestic voice sounded from behind, ending the dispute instantly.
This voice was obviously directed at Mo Xin, which made Mo Qing and Commander Yan look very unhappy.
"Master Mo, it's good that you came out. I came to your Mo family today just to..."
"You don't have to say anymore!" Before Mr. Xu could finish his words, he was rudely interrupted by Mr. Mo.
"Not to mention that I won't pay any attention to you for coming to my Mo family to accuse me without any evidence. Even if your son was really killed by a guest of my Mo family, I still want to ask, why did a caravan of only 200 people, who had just entered the desert and had no grudge against your son, kill your son?"
Seeing Master Xu's expression suddenly turn ugly, Master Mo continued, "I will also investigate this matter. If your son and all the Xu family mercenaries died at the hands of these two hundred merchants, I will find out why they killed your son and give you an explanation.
But Xu Da, you know the desert laws issued by the four major families. Any caravan entering the desert, especially a caravan with more than 50 people, is a guest of the four major families, and they have the right to choose which family to go to.
If some scattered forces in the desert dare to kidnap the guests of the four major families on the way, they will be the enemies of the four major families.
