Chapter 856: Chapter 857 Sprayed in the Face

Following that, Fang Xiaowei also rose to his feet, and both of them paid homage to Li Changlin with the salute of martial artists, symbolizing their submission.

Then, Mo Dongshen and Mo Dongqiang followed suit with grand salutations. The word of a martial artist is as good as gold, so having pledged allegiance to Li Changlin, they would certainly not go back on their word.

With the loyalty of the Mo Family secured, Li Changlin was understandably overjoyed and promptly passed on the first three layers of the Nine Yang Divine Art to Fang Xiaowei and Mo Penghong.

The Nine Yang Divine Art consists of nine levels, and reaching its ultimate state allows one to break through the realm of Danjin.

At present, he was at the Peak of the Transformation Realm, which meant he had only cultivated the Art to the third layer himself.

However, the profound mysteries of the Nine Yang Divine Art are not simple to master; even high masters like Fang Xiaowei and Mo Penghong could not expect to quickly achieve proficiency.

Li Changlin passed on the first three layers to the two men, and regarding the further transmission to the younger generation of the Mo Family, Li Changlin did not impose any restrictions. However, both Fang Xiaowei and Mo Penghong were well aware of the implications.

Given that the Divine Art could enable one to cultivate up to the legendary level of Danjin, it was clear that only the geniuses among the family would be entitled to learn it.

Moreover, the Nine Yang Divine Art was of great importance and could not be carelessly exposed.

Now, with the Mo Family not yet being the only dominant force in Nanfu Province, prudence was the best approach.

Afterward, the Mo Family held a banquet in honor of Li Changlin, during which Li Changlin naturally promised to contact the Sect as soon as possible, and someone would indeed deliver the Life Fruit in due course.

In fact, by this time, the Popularity Points in Li Changlin’s System were rather low. Even though they had risen today, they were still far from sufficient for the consumption of Fang Xiaowei alone.

Li Changlin was not too worried about this though, as after all, his Popularity Points were still increasing every day.

Especially since he had a big fight with White Butterfly tonight, which would certainly gather a substantial amount of Popularity Points for himself.

After the meal, Fang Xiaowei and Mo Penghong accompanied Li Changlin and discussed many matters, including how to deal with the Chen Family.

Li Changlin suggested that it would be best for the Mo Family to take action themselves, as it would then serve as a deterrent to the other three major families.

Once the Mo Family achieved victory over the Chen Family, the title of the number one family in Nanfu Province would naturally be within easy reach.

Fang Xiaowei and Mo Penghong deeply agreed with Li Changlin’s suggestion, but the decision to go to war with the Chen Family would naturally have to wait until after the arrival of the Holy Fruit provided by Li Changlin.

Frankly speaking, Li Changlin was indeed feeling quite pressured about the matter of the Life Fruit.

If it were just about supplying one or two people, it would not be a big issue, but aside from Fang Xiaowei and Mo Penghong, the Mo Family had two other affiliated families with martial artists in the Early Stage of Virtual Energy.

As for the number of martial artists who were half a step into Void Energy among their five families, together there were more than a dozen people.

Being one of the five major forces in a province, the foundations of the Mo Family were naturally not shallow.

Otherwise, with the Chen Family’s powerful strength, would they not have already swallowed up the Mo Family?

From then on, Li Changlin had a certain understanding of the five major families in Nanfu Province.

After finalizing a few important matters with them once more, Li Changlin proposed to take his leave, and Mo Penghong promptly arranged for Mo Dongshen to send Li Changlin back to the provincial capital.

By the time he arrived at the hospital, it was already four o’clock in the afternoon.

In the hospital room, Ye Xiyao and Mo Zijia were playing a game of Go, and to Li Changlin’s slight surprise, Bai Ziyu was also in the room.

Originally, Bai Ziyu had returned to Capital City a few days ago, but when she learned that Ye Xiyao was hospitalized, she quickly came back to visit.

Ye Xiyao and Mo Zijia were having a blast when Bai Ziyu just sat quietly by, reading a book.

Li Changlin knocked on the door, and it was Bai Ziyu who opened it for him.

Looking at Li Changlin, she had a strange expression in her eyes, yet she just nodded indifferently.

While closing the door behind him, Li Changlin said, puzzled, "I say, Bai Ziyu, it seems like you have some sort of grievance against me!"

In the past, Bai Ziyu’s attitude towards him had not been like this.

Especially when Li Changlin remembered the first time he met Bai Ziyu, it was at the antique market in Jincheng where she was with Zhong Jianping.

He had helped Lin Ruonan pick out a raw stone, but it had been snatched away by Bai Ziyu later on.

After that, Bai Ziyu lifted his sleeve to check the scars on his arm, and later Li Changlin found out that it had been arranged by Ye Xiyao.

But unexpectedly, upon meeting again, Bai Ziyu was so cold towards him.

"Of course, I’ve taken issue with you," Bai Ziyu said as she sat down in a chair, placing the book on the table and coldly huffed, "Better keep close watch over your Lin Ruonan, hmph, it really infuriates me!"

Bai Ziyu pouted, seemingly very angry.

However, if one looked closely at her eyes, they could also see a glimmer of slyness.

Since the day Lin Ruonan told Li Changlin that she was going on a matchmaking date, the two had not contacted each other since.

It wasn’t that Li Changlin didn’t want to contact her, mainly, the phone calls just wouldn’t go through, which was truly frustrating.

Li Changlin knew that Lin Ruonan was in the Capital City, but he had no inkling of her specific whereabouts.

So, even if Li Changlin wanted to go to the Capital City to find her, he had no information at all.

Hearing Bai Ziyu suddenly mention Lin Ruonan, he immediately asked, "Ziyu, you went to the Capital City, did you really see Ruonan?"

"Tsk, kiddo," Bai Ziyu gave him a disdainful look, then coldly snorted, "Li Changlin, put yourself in the right place, will you? You’re here to accompany Sister Ye right now. What’s Lin Ruonan got to do with you? Why are you asking me!"

"Uh..." Li Changlin almost choked on her words.

Feeling stifled, he touched his nose and felt genuinely awkward.

At this moment, Ye Xiyao, who had just finished a game with Mo Zijia, heard their conversation and looked up to gently smile, "Ziyu, don’t talk nonsense. If you have any news about Miss Lin, just tell Brother Changlin."

"Brother Changlin, Brother Changlin, Sister Ye, you really are too lax with him!" Bai Ziyu pouted, seeming somewhat sulky, but ultimately she did not talk back to Ye Xiyao. After a brief silence, she said coolly, "Lin Ruonan has gone on a matchmaking date with your Brother Zhou!"

Pfft!

Li Changlin was just drinking water from a cup on the table when Bai Ziyu suddenly dropped this bombshell, causing him to spit the water right out.

Truly a depressing sight, the water immediately sprayed all over Bai Ziyu’s face.

For a moment, everyone was stunned.

"Ah... Li Changlin, I’ll fight you!" Bai Ziyu was also dazed for a while, then suddenly snapped back to reality, got up immediately, and with claws bared, lunged toward Li Changlin.

Seeing this, Li Changlin thought, ’This isn’t good; I’ve got to run.’

Feeling guilty, he quickly set down the cup, pushed off the ground with his feet, and sprang back to retreat.
