By default, the succession process for the new head of the household is completed quickly.
After everything was over, Li Linglong finally stepped down from the platform. Although she was now the head of the Mo family, she still habitually stood behind Li Yu.
Everyone's gaze turned to Li Yu, who was standing in front of Li Linglong, even the Inspector.
Seeing that Li Yu had brought so many people all the way from the Central Plains defense line to this place, the inspector was somewhat surprised.
Although he knew Li Yu was the regimental commander, he was still somewhat shocked when he saw it with his own eyes.
Li Yu's team was like a huge makeshift troupe, with refugees, residents of Zhongzhou, and even all sorts of untrained people, making it look quite chaotic.
Although Li Yu's team was not particularly large in number compared to other legions, the daily food consumption of these thousands of people was still a considerable amount.
Moreover, the inspector was well aware that even after being officially appointed, a regimental commander like Li Yu, who was not a regular officer, still needed to be responsible for his own logistical support during peacetime.
It's as if the military only acknowledged Li Yu's status as regimental commander; everything else depended on Li Yu himself.
The inspector had some doubts:
'Without military support, how did Li Yu manage to consume such a large amount of food?'
How did Li Yu manage to lead such a large group of people on a long-distance march?
Even if everyone only ate algae sticks to keep themselves fed, it would still be a huge expense.
'unless......'
The inspector narrowed his eyes slightly, a thought flashing through his mind:
'Unless there's an awakened individual in Li Yu's team who possesses the same superpowers as those in the military logistics department!'
Thinking of this, the inspector's opinion of Li Yu changed instantly, and Li Yu's team was elevated to a higher level in his eyes.
At this moment, the inspector knew that he could not choose to ignore Li Yu, so he simply walked over.
Approaching Li Yu, the inspector forced a smile onto his stiff face and took the initiative to speak:
"Li Yu, I have long admired your name, and meeting you today, I can see that you are indeed extraordinary."
"You flatter me," Li Yu replied politely.
Li Yu knew in his heart that the inspector's choice of Li Linglong as the new head of the Mo family must be related to him.
The inspector gave another stiff smile, then changed the subject:
"Now that the earth veins are in crisis, all forces in the Central Plains need to work together."
"You have a close relationship with the new head of the family. With your assistance, the Mo family will surely be able to make greater contributions to the Central Plains in the future."
Upon hearing this, Li Yu raised an eyebrow slightly.
He understood the implication in the inspector's words and calmly replied:
"The affairs of the Mo family must ultimately be resolved by the Mo family themselves. I will only offer her support and advice when she needs it."
"That's enough. With the new head of the Mo family taking office, my supervisory department will naturally continue to pay attention."
The inspector spoke these words aloud, but inwardly he was thinking:
'As expected, having this child as the head of the Mo family effectively binds the Mo family and Li Yu together.'
'If anything happens to the new head of the Mo family, Li Yu will absolutely not stand idly by.'
Li Yu also holds the position of regimental commander in the Central Plains Military Command, which means that the Central Plains Military Command indirectly controls half of the Mo family.
He firmly believed that with Li Yu's influence and strength, he could definitely deter the remaining members of the Mo family.
In this way, he didn't even need to focus all his energy on the Mo family's remote mountain, nor did he need to stay there every day to monitor them, which gave him a lot of freedom.
'And the other half of the Mohist school...'
Thinking of this, the inspector looked up at Mo Xuanji, who was walking towards him. He was clearly still in the hands of the previous family head.
Mo Xuanji walked steadily to the two of them, first giving a slight nod to the Inspector, then turning to Li Yu and bowing before speaking:
"Many thanks to Commander Li Yu for his help. The Mo family is extremely grateful for what happened today. We are also very grateful to Commander Li for escorting Linglong all the way here."
"You're too kind. Linglong is my adopted sister, so of course I'll protect her," Li Yu replied calmly.
After exchanging a few polite words with Li Yu, Mo Xuanji glanced at the Inspector out of the corner of his eye.
He was well aware that the inspector's move to deliberately elect a new family head was probably an attempt to use Linglong to bring in Li Yu and divert his control over the Mo family.
However, in his view, as long as the Mo family does not fall into the hands of outsiders, he will still retain a certain degree of control.
What's more, the one who has now taken the position of family head is his long-lost granddaughter.
Mo Xuanji was deeply moved by this. He understood the inspector's concerns, so he earnestly added to the inspector:
"Rest assured, Your Excellency the Inspector, the Mohist school will stand firmly with the Central Plains under the leadership of the new patriarch."
"Alright, then I'll wait and see."
With Mo Xuanji's assurance, the inspector turned and led the soldiers from Zhongzhou away from the top of Mo Family Mountain.
Watching the inspectors descend the mountain, the Mo family members finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately afterwards, the Mo family members dispersed to clean up the mess left behind by the internal strife.
Even now, Mo Xuanji was still staring intently at his granddaughter, who had become the head of the Mo family, and he even seemed a little incredulous.
He originally planned to take back the Mo family from Mo Jiuzhen with Li Yu's help, and then continue to pave the way for his granddaughter as the head of the family.
Who would have thought that things would develop in such an unexpected way?
