"Since you know how powerful the City Lord is, then all the more reason you should leave."
Hearing Mo Qingyun's reply, Gu Yang had a look of disappointment on his face as he tried to persuade Mo Qingyun, "Qing Yun, this old man feels like an old friend to you at first sight, so I really don't want to see you fall here. You should leave while the City Lord is still unclear about your background."
Hearing Gu Yang's persuasion, Mo Qingyun fell silent as he realized that he had underestimated Roba Tian.
From Gu Yang's actions, it was clear that Roba Tian wasn't a simple person and wasn't as easy-going as he appeared to be.
But if he left, he wouldn't have the chance to participate in the Alchemist Trial, which made him feel reluctant.
Seeing Mo Qingyun's hesitation, Gu Yang became even more anxious and tried to persuade Mo Qingyun again.
Ring ring ring …
But before Gu Yang could say anything, an urgent voice suddenly rang out in the secret room.
Hearing the sound of the Communication Bell, Gu Yang's expression immediately tightened as a look of worry appeared on his face, "If this old master's guess is correct, the City Lord must be summoning this old master to ask about your background."
"Martial Uncle, what do you plan to say?"
Mo Qingyun's expression changed slightly as he asked Gu Yang for his opinion.
"Since you've addressed me as martial uncle, I naturally cannot watch as you perish here."
Hearing Mo Qingyun's question, Gu Yang fell silent for a moment before sighing, "This old man will try to hide it for you, but whether or not you can hide it will depend on your luck."
"Many thanks, Martial Uncle!"
Mo Qingyun's face was filled with gratitude as he quickly cupped his hands towards Gu Yang. His impression of Gu Yang had greatly improved.
He and Gu Yang had only met by chance, so for Gu Yang to do this, it was already extremely rare.
Seeing Mo Qingyun's gesture of gratitude, Gu Yang waved his hand indifferently and opened the door to the secret room.
Boom boom boom …
As the door opened, Deacon Jiang appeared in front of the door and walked towards Gu Yang with a tense expression.
"Lord Gu Yang, the City Lord has summoned you. He has something important to discuss with you."
Deacon Jiang came to Gu Yang's side and reported to him with a tense expression. At the same time, he couldn't help but glance at Mo Qingyun.
The hidden meaning behind his actions could not be more obvious. This matter was definitely related to Mo Qingyun.
"Alright, I'll be right there."
Hearing Deacon Jiang's report, Gu Yang didn't want to waste any more time and immediately walked out of the room, "Qing Yun, this old master will be back soon. You stay here and do whatever you want."
As soon as Gu Yang finished speaking, he rushed towards the City Lord's Mansion without looking back.
"Martial Uncle, take care!"
Looking at Gu Yang's back as he walked away, Mo Qingyun bowed respectfully to Gu Yang.
As Mo Qingyun spoke, his gratitude towards Gu Yang grew even stronger.
Gu Yang's last sentence seemed to be telling him not to be restrained, but in reality, he was hinting at him to leave Cloudsky City as soon as he felt something was wrong.
Understanding Gu Yang's hint, Mo Qingyun raised his guard and walked out of the room.
"Mr Mo, you're really something. You even dared to teach the City Lord's son a lesson."
Seeing Mo Qingyun walk out of the room, Deacon Jiang quickly followed him and gave Mo Qingyun a thumbs up.
Hearing Deacon Jiang's words, Mo Qingyun calmly waved his hand and said, "You must be joking, Deacon Jiang. I'm not in trouble now. I'm always worried that the City Lord will punish me."
"Mr Mo, you really know how to joke. If the City Lord wanted to punish you, he wouldn't have waited until now."
Hearing Mo Qingyun's words, Deacon Jiang laughed awkwardly, but his eyes kept flashing.
Obviously, Deacon Jiang's words were not his true thoughts.
Seeing Deacon Jiang's subtle actions, Mo Qingyun slightly narrowed his eyes and guessed Deacon Jiang's thoughts.
He wasn't familiar with Deacon Jiang, and they hadn't even spoken a word before. Now, Deacon Jiang suddenly came over to show his goodwill.
Wasn't this very strange?
One had to know that Mo Qingyun had offended Luo Batian. Normal people would avoid him.
But Deacon Jiang did the opposite, and took the initiative to show his goodwill at this time. It was hard to not think too much about his intentions.
"If I'm not wrong, Deacon Jiang is showing his goodwill to me because he wants to keep an eye on me."
Mo Qingyun's heart moved, and he roughly guessed Deacon Jiang's intentions. He smiled meaningfully and said, "Deacon Jiang, you don't have to accompany me all the time. Just do what you need to do. I'll just walk around by myself."
"Okay, if you need anything, just let me know."
Hearing Mo Qingyun's order to leave, Deacon Jiang couldn't continue to follow him, so he smiled awkwardly and left.
Seeing Deacon Jiang leave, Mo Qingyun didn't let his guard down, and released his soul force to secretly observe.
Under Mo Qingyun's secret observation, he found that Deacon Jiang's attention was always on him.
"So it's true!"
Seeing Deacon Jiang's actions, Mo Qingyun sneered, and felt some disdain for Deacon Jiang.
Mo Qingyun muttered to himself, then he used Concealment Door and hid his body.
If he wasn't wrong, Deacon Jiang was now secretly monitoring him, and it was most likely Roba Tian's orders.
In this case, Gu Yang's guess was right. Roba Tian wouldn't let this matter go, and indeed wanted to kill him.
"Should I leave?"
After concealing himself, Mo Qingyun thought about whether he should leave or stay.
After some hesitation, Mo Qingyun decided to stay, and wait until the alchemist trial ended.
… …
In the City Lord's Mansion.
"Father, why didn't you just kill that kid? Why did you make me kowtow to him?"
Luo Xian sat in the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion, venting his dissatisfaction to Luo Batian with an indignant look.
Hearing Luo Yan's words, Roba Tian looked like he expected better from Luo Yan. He stared at Luo Yan sternly and said, "Hmph! How many times have I told you, don't be too rash and impulsive. Have you ever listened carefully? You're too weak compared to Mo Qingyun. "
"He … How can he compare to me? I was just careless this time."
Hearing Roba Tian's evaluation, Luo Yan was even more unconvinced, and he had a disapproving attitude.
Luo Batian was extremely disappointed when he saw Luo Xian's reaction. He shouted angrily, "Bastard, haven't you ever thought about why you were captured by Mo Qingyun even though you were in the right place at the right time?"
"I … I underestimated him!"
Luo Yan was at a loss for words, and he mumbled awkwardly.
"So you still know that you underestimated him!"
Roba Tian shook his head, still looking disappointed, and said, "Yan 'er, the Wasteland Continent is very big, and there are many powerful people there. Our Cloud Heaven City is just a small place, and you can't stay here forever. You have to change your arrogance."
