Now that all these people have come forward, please, Master Mo, hand them over to me to comfort Master Xu's spirit in heaven."
Master Mo smiled and said, "Haha, Master Gong, as these guests have said, Master Xu has violated the taboo of the four great families."
"They are slandering us!" Master Xu roared with red eyes.
"Master Xu, you can't be so indiscriminate just because your son is dead. This caravan has no grudge against Master Xu, and they're new to the desert. How could they intentionally provoke hatred?"
It's obvious that you lied, Master Xu. I know Mr. Xu's character quite well. He must have been attracted by the wealth of this merchant group, so he wanted to rob them.
"You...you are slandering me! Anyway, I don't care. You must hand these people over to me today!"
"Hmph." Master Mo sneered. "How can you order my Mo family around? I have made up my mind on this matter. It was Master Xu who violated the rules of the four great families first. Originally, your Xu family should be severely punished. However, considering that Master Xu is dead, I will not pursue this matter. You can leave now!"
"Mo Yuan, do you really think that just because my Xu family is in decline and the Gong family is inferior to you, you can act lawless?" After saying this, Master Xu spat out a mouthful of blood. It seemed that he was really angry.
Upon seeing this, Mr. Gong immediately stepped forward to support him, his expression looking very unhappy.
"Master Mo, you said before that you wanted us to produce evidence proving that Mr. Xu's death was related to this caravan. Now that we have produced the evidence, you are blocking us with so many obstacles. Although my Gong family is indeed not as powerful as your Mo family, the four great families are not the only ones."
"So what does Master Gong want?"
"Produce evidence to prove that these people killed Master Xu because he coveted their money and wanted to rob them in the desert, which led to their death. If you can get them to produce evidence, I will take Master Xu away immediately. But if you can't, these people today must follow me back to the Gong family!"
"Master Gong, please remember what you said. We originally wanted to save some face for the deceased, but since you insist on evidence, let us show you how this Mr. Xu disregarded the regulations of the four major families and committed such shameful acts in the desert."
As soon as Master Gong finished speaking, Xiao Yimo, transformed into Qing Fan, entered the hall, dragging a emaciated man with terrified eyes. With a flick of his hand, the man fell to the ground, kowtowed to Master Mo in apology, his eyes filled with fear.
"Who is this? He is not a member of my Xu family!" Mr. Xu first distanced himself from this person.
Xiao Yimo smiled and said, "Master Xu, you don't know him, but the noble young master does."
"Hmph, what a joke! How could my son, the eldest son of the Xu family, have contact with such a person? This person is obviously one of those scoundrels from the desert. Now you find someone to insult my son, and that counts as evidence?"
"Haha, Master Xu, don't get excited yet. Just listen to what he says. Otherwise, you won't know what kind of a scoundrel your son is!" Without waiting for Master Xu to lose his temper, he shouted at the man kneeling on the ground, "Speak!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Black Scorpion really wanted to die now. Knowing that this group of people was so difficult to deal with, he would never let Master Xu do such a big deal.
