After several hours of fleeing, Mo Qingyun and the rest finally managed to shake off Song Xu and the rest.
Both sides had suffered heavy losses in the few hours of fleeing and fighting. They had lost many of their clansmen.
Mo Hongtian and the rest were also severely injured. Their bodies were covered with hideous wounds.
In particular, Second Elder Mo Kuixin had one of his arms chopped off and blood dyed half of his body red.
Second Elder Mo Kuixin was the only one who did not rebel among the many elders of the Mo Clan.
"Master, we can't go back to Northern Desert Town. Where should we go next?"
Mo Kuixin asked Mo Hongtian with a solemn expression.
"This …"
Mo Hongtian frowned and looked troubled. He could not decide where to go.
If they went to another town, they might be ostracized by the clans in the other towns. They might even hit them when they were down and attack them.
However, if they did not go to another town, they would not be able to go back to Northern Desert Town. They would be stranded in the wilderness.
"Grandfather, let's go to Lianyun City."
Mo Qingyun suggested when Mo Hongtian was in a dilemma.
"Lianyun City?"
Mo Hongtian was stunned. He nodded and said, "Lianyun City is good too. The clan still has some businesses in Lianyun City. We will have a place to stay."
"Yes!"
Second Elder nodded and said, "So many of us will stay in the Green Wood Trading Company. The living conditions may be tough, but it's better than being stranded in the wilderness."
Mo Qingyun smiled when he heard Mo Hongtian and Second Elder's words. "Grandfather, Second Elder, you don't have to worry about this. I have bought a mansion in Lianyun City. You can stay there when you go to Lianyun City."
Mansion?
Mo Qingyun had bought a mansion in Lianyun City!
Mo Hongtian and the rest were stunned when they heard Mo Qingyun's words. They looked at Mo Qingyun in surprise.
According to their understanding, the cheapest mansion in Lianyun City would cost at least a few million gold coins.
"How many more secrets are you hiding?!"
Hearing Mo Qingyun's words, Mo Feipeng laughed out loud as he patted Mo Qingyun's shoulder and said, "That mansion in Lianyun City is worth two to three million gold coins, where did you get so much money?"
"Uncle, it's not two or three million, it's twelve million!"
At this time, Mo Ling and Mo Xiao both spoke, correcting Mo Feipeng's words.
Twelve million!
Hearing Mo Xiao and Mo Ling's words, everyone was dumbfounded. They opened their mouths wide and couldn't say anything.
Even the entire Mo family wouldn't be able to fork out so much money.
"Is what Xiao Xiao and Ling 'er said true?
Mo Feipeng swallowed his saliva and asked nervously.
Mo Feipeng was not the only one who was nervous. Even Mo Hongtian and the others were nervous.
Looking at the expressions of the crowd, Mo Qingyun smiled helplessly and nodded, "It is indeed twelve million. However, I still owe four million gold coins."
You still haven't paid the first four million gold coins?
Hearing Mo Qingyun's answer, everyone was speechless. They didn't know what to say.
Since when was it possible to owe money when buying a mansion?
"Uncle, you don't know the situation at that time."
Mo Xiao added, "That Young City Lord heard that Qingyun wanted to buy the Azure Jade Mansion, so he asked for three million gold coins less."
Young City Lord?
Asked for three million gold coins less?
Mo Qingyun actually knew the Young City Lord of Lianyun City and seemed to have a good relationship with him.
At this time, Mo Feipeng and the others didn't know what to say. Mo Qingyun seemed to be doing well in Lianyun City.
After a short period of depression, Mo Feipeng asked again, "I heard that the mansions in Lianyun City are sold directly by the City Lord's Mansion. They allowed you to owe money and even gave you a discount of three million gold coins. Are you close to the City Lord's Mansion?"
"Not bad. I have met the City Lord's son a few times."
Mo Qingyun smiled faintly and said, "As for why they allowed me to owe money and give me a discount, they must have something to ask of me."
"They have something to ask of you?"
Mo Feipeng and the others were puzzled. They looked at Mo Qingyun in confusion, waiting for Mo Qingyun's answer.
"I'm not sure what it is exactly. I think they will come to me when the time comes."
With Mo Qingyun's experience in his previous life, he naturally knew that Wan Yuexuan's actions were a sign that he was trying to hide something.
"There's no need to think too much about other things. At least for now, it seems that going to Lianyun City is a good choice."
After knowing Mo Qingyun's situation in Lianyun City, Mo Hongtian smiled and said with a gratified smile.
Hearing this, everyone nodded their heads and the worry on their faces lessened.
From the looks of it, with Mo Qingyun's connections in Lianyun City, it was indeed a good choice for the Mo Clan to go to Lianyun City.
"Everyone, take a rest first. We will continue our journey and try to reach Lianyun City before the sky turns dark."
Mo Qingyun smiled faintly at the crowd as she instructed.
Hearing Mo Qingyun's words, Mo Hongtian and the others did not say anything else and began to recover and adjust their breathing.
…
…
Lianyun City, Xue Clan.
"You bunch of trash, haven't you found Young Master Xue Ming yet?"
In the Xue Clan's meeting hall, a middle-aged man with a gloomy face shouted at the crowd below.
This man was the Xue Clan's Master, Xue Zhenyang. He was the number one expert in the Xue Clan with a cultivation of Level Four Yuan Dan Realm.
"Master, according to the investigation, Young Master Xue Ming left Lianyun City a few days ago and has not returned since."
At this moment, a guard reported.
"Left Lianyun City?"
The Xue Clan's Master frowned and asked coldly, "Did you find out why Young Master Xue Ming left Lianyun City?"
"We don't know yet. However, I heard that it has something to do with Young Master Dan, Mo Qingyun," another guard replied.
"Young Master Dan? Is it because of that kid? "
The Xue Family Head pondered for a moment before instructing his subordinates, "Continue the investigation immediately. Also, investigate the origins of this Young Master Alchemy, Mo Qing Yun."
"Yes, Master!"
Hearing Xue Zhenyang's words, the guards immediately responded and hurriedly left the hall.
"Elders, what do you think about this?"
After instructing the guards, Xue Zhenyang asked the elders beside him, "Do you think the Alchemist Union is behind Ming 'er's disappearance?"
"It's hard to say for now. Let's wait and see. It won't be too late to make a conclusion after the investigation is out."
One of the elders suggested.
"Yes, Elder Yuancheng is right."
Another elder nodded and said, "However, that kid Mo Qingyun has to be eliminated sooner or later. Otherwise, he might be a scourge to Xiao 'er."
"Yes, that kid is extremely talented in alchemy. He's deeply loved by Du Luo and the other elders. It's indeed troublesome to keep him around."
Xue Zhenyang's face darkened and nodded, expressing his agreement to the elders' words.
At this moment, while Xue Zhenyang and the others were talking.
