Chapter 846: Chapter 847 Going to the Mo Family
Outside the corridor, Mo Dongming first made introductions for the two; the family’s elder had arranged for a half-step into Void Energy expert to come and greet Changlin. This naturally signified the importance they placed on him.
Changlin exchanged a few pleasantries with Mo Dongyu before following Mo Dongshen downstairs to leave.
Downstairs, a Frost Car had already been waiting for a long time, and Mo Dongshen personally opened the car door for Changlin, then respectfully invited him to get in.
Changlin smiled amiably and naturally also invited Mo Dongshen to join him in the car.
After a round of courteous exchanges, Changlin finally got in first, followed by Mo Dongshen who also climbed into the car.
Once the car door was closed, Mo Dongshen instructed the driver to start the car.
At that moment, Changlin noticed that aside from the driver, there was another man in his thirties sitting in the passenger seat.
This man was at the Middle Threshold Stage of cultivation and was considered a talented individual in Ancient Martial Cultivation.
However, he seemed quite arrogant and showed no intention of greeting Changlin.
Through the rearview mirror inside the car, Changlin saw that this person bore quite a resemblance to Mo Dongshen, who had already voluntarily started to introduce him. "This is my unworthy son, Mo Zhensheng. I am embarrassed to have Mr. Li see him like this. Zhensheng, what kind of expression is that? Quickly greet Mr. Li."
"Hmph, if it weren’t for him transferring the raw stone to the Family Head, our Mo Family would not have suffered such an unwarranted disaster!" It seemed that Mo Zhensheng really had some views towards Changlin.
Even though Mo Dongshen was his father, he did not intend to give face.
Hearing this, Mo Dongshen couldn’t help but smile wryly and shake his head, apologizing to Changlin with many words.
Changlin, waving his hand with a smile, didn’t take it to heart.
In fact, he was well aware that probably a large part of the Mo Family harbored this kind of hostility towards him.
If one were to really probe into the matter, two days ago, it indeed had been Changlin who transferred the raw stone to Mo Dongyu. If Changlin had refused to transfer it at that time, Mo Dongyu would definitely have felt too embarrassed to forcibly take it.
Although Tang Hongyuan later had to surrender his half of the raw stone because of the pressure from Changlin’s sixth uncle, in the beginning, Changlin could indeed have offered the same price to buy the stone himself.
After all, with Changlin’s status, a mere fifty million was clearly not an issue.
Even then, Changlin could have offered a higher price, and with Mo Dongyu’s standing, he would not have quibbled with a junior over this matter.
Thus, Mo Dongyu and the rest of the Mo Family could have avoided this misfortune.
So, in the hearts of many in the Mo Family, including Mo Zhensheng, this ordeal that the Mo Family faced was entirely due to Changlin’s mistake.
But now, the person who made the mistake was poised to become an honored guest of the Mo Family, which was very hard for everyone to accept.
Given such circumstances, it was understandable for Mo Zhensheng to show an unwelcoming face towards Changlin.
However, even though Changlin understood this, he had no intention of stooping to the same level as Mo Zhensheng.
The situation at the time was complicated; on the one hand, Mo Dongyu obviously had no intention of letting go, and on the other hand, why would Changlin want the Blood Jade? To attain a sizeable windfall, what was the point of bringing back a Blood Jade when he was already well-fed and well-occupied?
Of course, this was also because Changlin truly didn’t understand the significance of the Blood Jade.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t be just five hundred million—Changlin might not have been willing to transfer the item even for five billion.
Hmph!
Seeing that Changlin did not respond, Mo Zhensheng, sitting in the passenger seat, let out a baffling snort.
Li Changlin’s expression darkened slightly, thinking this guy must be an idiot. He had restrained himself from responding, yet this man had the audacity to challenge the Nearly Divine Tycoon right in front of his own father.
Just a practitioner in the Middle Threshold Stage, the Nearly Divine Tycoon could crush him with just one hand!
Unfortunately, Mo Zhensheng had no idea what realm Li Changlin was in; he thought that Li Changlin was only showing off based on the status of the Capital Li Family, hence his arrogant behavior.
Little did he know, that was not Li Changlin’s intention at all, and Li Changlin had always conducted himself with neither servility nor overbearing pride—far from swaggering about!
Mo Dongshen found himself in a tough spot and scolded Mo Zhensheng several times, then repeatedly apologized to Li Changlin.
It’s said that one does not strike the smiling face. With an old man placing himself so low, Li Changlin naturally didn’t want to be overly aggressive, so he let the matter slide.
However, Mo Zhensheng, having been rebuked by his father multiple times, felt even deeper animosity toward Li Changlin.
Although he dared not display his malice toward Li Changlin too obviously, he had no choice but to turn his head towards the window, darkly contemplating the scenery outside.
Li Changlin was actually quite annoyed by the other’s attitude.
But there were more important matters at hand, and he didn’t want to complicate things further.
Especially considering some people within the Mo Family probably shared Mo Zhensheng’s sentiments, Li Changlin knew that to truly intimidate the entire Mo Family, he would have to change this group’s mindset.
Otherwise, there could be unforeseen issues in the future, which was an outcome Li Changlin did not want to see.
The Mo Family’s ancestral home wasn’t in the town, so after leaving the hospital, the car headed out of the town via the road.
Then it took the highway, heading in the eastern direction.
About an hour later, the car finally entered a mountain village—Mo Family Village had arrived.
Most people in Mo Family Village were descendants of the Mo Family, though there was a minority of other surnames.
Nevertheless, their ancestors were once vassals of the Mo Family, thus their lineage continued generation after generation.
To this day, these families still relied on the Mo Family for survival. After hundreds of years of proliferation, they had long since become indistinguishable from the Mo Family.
The car drove into the largest house in the village, which was at least a hundred years old, clearly not a modern building.
The car stopped in the courtyard, and Mo Dongshen got out first, then respectfully invited Li Changlin to disembark.
Mo Zhensheng from the front passenger seat had already left the car on his own and discreetly took out a mobile phone to dial a number.
Li Changlin observed all these movements without a word.
He nodded kindly at Mo Dongshen, then calmly got out of the car.
After disembarking, Li Changlin realized how big the courtyard really was—at least two hundred square meters.
Through the courtyard lay a broad path leading to a nearby house.
There were a total of five buildings in the courtyard, and at that moment, a group of people briskly approached.
Seeing the newcomers, Mo Dongshen’s face slightly furrowed, a flash of steadfast determination in his eyes.
The man at the front appeared to be in his forties and bore a five to six parts resemblance to Mo Dongshen; shockingly, he also possessed the cultivation of Half-step into Void Energy.
Li Changlin looked up, amused, and just then, Mo Zhensheng hurried forward to greet them.
