Chapter 784 - 782: No One at the Mo Family
"Whoosh!"
While Chen Tianlong was intently searching, suddenly a flying dagger swiftly attacked, startling him. He quickly looked up, only to see Mo Xue’s fist already in his face.
However, the Chen Tianlong now was not the same as before; he had leveled up.
Chen Tianlong quickly dodged, slipped behind the opponent, and with a strong embrace, he hugged Mo Xue tightly.
Mo Xue, being held by Chen Tianlong, was both shy and angry. She hurriedly wanted to attack Chen Tianlong, but with a gentle press on her body, he immobilized her.
"You... what did you do to me, let me go." Mo Xue discovered her body couldn’t move, and she was immediately startled.
Although she was an Ancient Martial Cultivator, she did not know the acupoint technique. In the Mo Family, apart from Mo Yun, even her father Mo Chou did not know it. So, when Chen Tianlong pressed an acupoint, Mo Xue was extremely surprised.
This guy actually knows acupoint techniques?
"Haha, nothing much, just let you stay still for a while." Chen Tianlong said while carefully observing Mo Xue. Last time when he saw her, she looked fierce, and he had no mood to take a closer look.
Now that he had immobilized her acupoints, Chen Tianlong felt like teasing her a bit. After all, she was from the Mo Family, which meant she was his enemy. Not teasing would be a waste.
"Your skin is quite fair, and your figure is not bad, tsk tsk..."
"Bastard, what exactly do you want to do, coming to my house broad daylight, watch out, I’ll report you." Mo Xue originally had no hostility towards Chen Tianlong. Last time, her family’s people almost got him into big trouble, and she felt somewhat guilty.
After all, in Mo Xue’s eyes, her Master couldn’t have been killed by Chen Tianlong. Considering Chen Tianlong’s strength at that time, hurting her Master would already be quite an achievement.
So, that time, Chen Tianlong was framed. From Chen Tianlong’s words and actions, it should be Second Master Mo Yun.
"Haha, can’t you see? I’m just trying to play with you." Chen Tianlong showed an evil smile, deliberately getting his face very close, then lightly taking a deep breath on Mo Xue’s cheek: "Wow, smells nice!"
"You... shameless, rogue, bastard!" Mo Xue was a bit flustered. Although she had no hostility towards Chen Tianlong, his flirting made her feel a bit shy, and of course a bit angry.
What frustrated her even more was that despite his teasing, she actually felt good about it.
Am I being masochistic?
Mo Xue muttered to herself for a while, and suddenly frightened herself.
"Oh? Say that again, and I’ll really be shameless, push you down on the bed and do something else, see if you dare." Chen Tianlong said with a wicked smile.
"You.... wuwu...." Mo Xue burst into tears at Chen Tianlong’s intimidation.
In her heart, Chen Tianlong was not that kind of person, but hearing this made her inexplicably heartbroken.
Ack?
Chen Tianlong originally just wanted to tease Mo Xue a bit, but didn’t expect to make her cry. He hurriedly said: "Hey... I was joking, I won’t push you, so don’t cry."
With that, Chen Tianlong personally wiped her tears, after all, Mo Xue was immobilized by him, and tears flowed down her face like a stream.
Feeling Chen Tianlong’s warm hand constantly wiping her face, Mo Xue’s strong heart instantly melted.
She never imagined this guy had such a gentle side.
"Alright, I have to go do something, leaving first, your acupoint will automatically release in about ten minutes." Chen Tianlong smiled lightly, then pushed the door open and left.
"Chen Tianlong...."
Mo Xue seemed reluctant and called out, but Chen Tianlong was already gone.
After leaving the small room, Chen Tianlong did not leave the Hao Family but thought, isn’t Mo Yun usually at the back mountain? Why wasn’t he in the room now?
So, he walked around the back mountain, and suddenly discovered behind a large rock in front, someone practicing in secret. Cautiously, Chen Tianlong slowly approached from behind.
Behind the rock, Mo Yun was practicing, and beside him was a jade pendant. Chen Tianlong recognized it immediately as the one he had sent over earlier. No, it should be Mo Yun’s brother’s.
"Damn, so it was really him who killed his own brother, just for this jade pendant?" Chen Tianlong was a bit speechless. What secret does this jade pendant hold, worth doing this?
But at this moment, Chen Tianlong understood.
During Mo Yun’s practice, a faint bluish-green aura drifted out from the jade pendant. This could only be seen by Ancient Martial Cultivators of a certain level. It’s commonly known as high concentration Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
This kind of Spiritual Qi was not ordinary but a concentrated form of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi. It was like certain gases; invisible when thin, but when compressed to a certain degree, it forms a thin layer of mist. Observing carefully, one can define it.
Mo Yun continually used the jade pendant’s Spiritual Qi for cultivation resources, which left Chen Tianlong stunned.
Even though Chen Tianlong’s Heart Method could gather Spiritual Qi, this jade pendant had the same function, and now even seemed stronger than the Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique.
"So it really is you!"
Chen Tianlong snorted coldly to himself. The jade pendant was Mo Yun’s, which meant he also killed his brother. So, the high-quality duplicate jade pendant he brought back must have been deliberately dropped by this guy, though the reason was still unclear to Chen Tianlong.
The only thing certain was that among those people back then, Mo Yun was definitely included. So, to find out who betrayed them back then, Mo Yun was the key.
"Who?"
Mo Yun was practicing and naturally less vigilant, but as a master, he easily detected Chen Tianlong’s presence, which wasn’t concealed well.
However, Chen Tianlong knew his current strength still couldn’t rival Mo Yun, so he quickly dodged and fled.
At this critical moment, Chen Tianlong didn’t want to cause trouble, especially at the Hao Family.
After slipping away from the Hao Family, Chen Tianlong thought of a place. Since Hao Family, Xu Fei, and Xu Family Mansion were unoccupied, the only place left was the Flying Eagle Gang base at Hao Family.
Chen Tianlong recalled where Huang Ziyan and the young lady were taken that day and felt that time flies; half a year had passed in a blink of an eye.
Driving his BMW, Chen Tianlong sped all the way, stopping at that small forest like usual, then drove inside, hiding it under the treetops, and started climbing over the wall.
The Flying Eagle Gang base evidently wasn’t as bustling, considering Hao Shuai focused on aiding the Celestial Wolf Gang, and as their Second-in-Command, tasks of the Flying Eagle Gang were left to Zhou Tianyu to manage.
The guards here were noticeably less vigilant than before, with a small henchman occasionally nodding off at the gate. Chen Tianlong didn’t enter from the front, not fearing detection, but because it’s unwise to alert the enemy before figuring things out.
After all, Chen Tianlong wasn’t certain Lin Batian was here.
Stealthily sneaking into the base, Chen Tianlong quickly began searching the building skillfully; he was quite familiar with this place, having visited several times before.
After a moment of observation, there weren’t many people inside, and they seemed not very alert.
