Just as Teng Feiyan finished his sentence, Lang Bi received yet another message. With a sweep of his spiritual will, his face immediately changed, "Castellan, that Mo Wuji is really back."
"What?" Teng Feiyan suddenly stood up. His eyes were filled with shock.
Even though he guessed that Mo Wuji lured Du Hong out because he wasn't afraid of Du Hong, and could even kill him, Teng Feiyan was still shocked. Now that Mo Wuji was back, and in such a short period of time, he was still incomparably shocked.
If Mo Wuji returned after a few days, it could be said that Du Hong was bewitched and fell for Mo Wuji's scheme. In such a short period of time, not even a day, Mo Wuji was back. There could only be one possibility. Mo Wuji had a head-on battle with Du Hong, and Du Hong had lost.
"Go and invite him over. Tell him that I have an invitation." Teng Feiyan quickly regained his composure and said solemnly.
"Alright, I will go and invite him now. I'm just worried that he won't come over." Lang Bi's face turned solemn. In his heart, he was starting to feel some fear towards Mo Wuji.
From his point of view, no matter how impressive Mo Wuji was, he wouldn't dare to come to the City Hall alone. If the City Hall was plotting against him, he wouldn't be able to leave. Moreover, no one would help him in this matter. He deserved to die.
Teng Feiyan said faintly, "If he doesn't come over, it means that even though he is impressive, he isn't worth my friendship."
Seeing Lang Bi leave, Teng Feiyan suddenly felt that his strategy might not be correct. If it was any other Pill Emperor who had earned a large sum of green crystals, they wouldn't dare to come to his place. Using this method to judge whether Mo Wuji was worth it or not was not appropriate. Should he personally make a trip over?
Forget it. Teng Feiyan hesitated for a moment before shaking his head. There were many capable people in the Heaven's Beyond Corridor. He, Teng Feiyan, was after all an Immortal Emperor. It would be beneath his status to visit a mere shop owner.
…
"Big Brother Mo, you're back." Lou Si saw Mo Wuji walk into the pill house and welcomed him in surprise. Before Mo Wuji could ask, she took the initiative to tell him about the incident of the various shops attacking Mortal Pill House.
When Mo Wuji heard that the various shops attacked Mortal Pill House, he heaved a sigh of relief. This matter was originally within his expectations. What he was most worried about was that Mifei Medicinal Pill Pavilion would take the lead in this matter. If Mifei Pill House was the one who initiated this matter, then Lou Si definitely wouldn't be able to resolve it so easily.
Don't simply look at how many immortals were clamoring for Mortal Pill House to concoct pills. If Mifei Pill House led an organised assault on Mortal Pill House, coupled with the backing of an Immortal Emperor, these immortals would be like a plate of loose sand. At that time, he might really have to leave the Heaven's Beyond City Square.
Fortunately, that Immortal Emperor from Mifei Pill House was too arrogant; he didn't want to use such methods. He wanted to suppress Mortal Pill House, but in the end, he was killed.
"En, continue collecting green crystals. We will leave this place in two months." Mo Wuji decided to earn two more months of green crystals before leaving the Heaven's Beyond City Square.
"House Master Mo, our Castellan has invited you over. I wonder if House Master Mo is free?" A man's voice came from the entrance of the pill house.
"Lou Si greets Deacon Lang." Lou Si hurried to greet the man.
Following which, she turned to Mo Wuji and said, "Big Brother Mo, this is Deacon Lang Bi of the Heaven's Beyond City Square. Everything in the Heaven's Beyond City Square is managed by Deacon Lang."
Mo Wuji knew of the Heaven's Beyond City Square. He had also heard of Castellan Teng Feiyan. He knew that Teng Feiyan should have just advanced into the Immortal Emperor Stage not too long ago. Logically speaking, he should be leaving the Heaven's Beyond City Square soon.
He didn't have any relationship with Teng Feiyan. Moreover, he had obtained his shop through proper procedures. However, Mo Wuji was clear that if he wanted to continue doing business in the Heaven's Beyond City Square, he couldn't offend this Castellan.
"Lou Si, continue collecting immortal materials and green crystals. Since the Castellan has invited me, I must not neglect him. I will be back very soon. "Mo Wuji instantly made his decision.
"Yes, Big Brother Mo." Lou Si hurried to respond.
"Deacon Lang, please lead the way." Mo Wuji clasped his fists and said with a smile.
"Ah … Alright. House Master Mo, please follow me." Lang Bi was prepared for Mo Wuji to reject him. However, he didn't expect that Mo Wuji wouldn't reject him at all. Instead, Mo Wuji allowed him to lead the way.
Who didn't know how many treasures this Mortal Pill House's House Master Mo had on him? He couldn't understand where Mo Wuji's confidence came from. How could Mo Wuji be so sure that the Castellan wouldn't act against him?
Even though Mo Wuji was only in the elementary Immortal Reverent Stage, he wasn't afraid of Teng Feiyan. He was sure that Teng Feiyan wasn't as strong as that Immortal Emperor from Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion. What was there for him to be afraid of?
Use a trap array? Why would a Grade 7 Array Master like him be afraid of a trap array?
…
Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion. House Master Min Cheng's face was slightly pale. He had just received news that Mortal Pill House's Mo Wuji had returned. Other than a change of clothes, he was completely unharmed.
Mo Wuji's return wasn't the main point. The main point was that Mifei Trade House's Elder Du Hong didn't return.
"Why do you think Elder Du Hong didn't return?" Even though Min Cheng was questioning Wen Li and Ran Yushui, his gaze was on Ran Yushui.
Ran Yushui sighed in her heart. She guessed that something might have happened to Elder Du Hong. However, she wouldn't say such words. If Elder Du Hong was fine and she guessed that something had happened to Elder Du Hong, then it wouldn't benefit her at all.
"I think that Deacon Yushui's previous worries were correct. Elder Du Hong might have been ambushed by that Mo Wuji." Wen Li said as she thought of this.
Ran Yushui noticed that Min Cheng was staring at her. She could only say, "Mo Wuji left for less than a day before returning. Logically speaking, even if he had ambushed Elder Du Hong, he wouldn't have returned so quickly. Unless he faced Elder Du Hong directly. Elder Du Hong is an Immortal Emperor expert. No matter how strong Mo Wuji is, his Pill Dao is strong. Even if he joined forces with Kuang Jin, he shouldn't have been able to ambush Elder Du Hong … "
Ran Yushui didn't finish her sentence. She didn't know how to continue.
"Then why didn't Elder Du Hong return? What should we do now? "Min Cheng asked.
He didn't know if they should continue to wait or report to Mifei Trade House.
Ran Yushui and Wen Li didn't speak anymore. If they didn't handle this problem well, they would be in trouble. If they reported it and Du Hong was fine, not only would they be labeled as useless, they would also offend Elder Du Hong. If something happened to Du Hong and they didn't report it, the consequences wouldn't be much better.
"I'm going to pay a visit to that Mo Wuji. The two of you should follow me." Min Cheng clearly knew the severity of this matter. He simply stood up and said. Only Mo Wuji would be able to find news of Elder Du Hong.
…
"Haha, House Master Mo, I've heard a lot about you." When Teng Feiyan saw Mo Wuji walk into the city hall with Lang Bi, he knew that Du Hong had really been killed by Mo Wuji. Moreover, this Mo Wuji definitely wasn't afraid of him. Otherwise, Mo Wuji wouldn't have come to his city hall.
The instant Mo Wuji stepped into the city hall, Teng Feiyan decided to befriend Mo Wuji. Regardless of whether Mo Wuji was an Immortal Emperor or not, it was definitely not simple for Mo Wuji to have such achievements at such a young age. Since he was about to leave the city hall, befriending an expert like Mo Wuji would be a good thing. Moreover, Mo Wuji was a Tier 8 Pill Emperor.
"Mo Wuji greets Castellan Teng." Mo Wuji clasped his fists and greeted.
"Come, come, come. There's no need to stand on ceremony. Please take a seat." Teng Feiyan led Mo Wuji to a seat. Then, he took out a peak grade immortal wine from his storage ring and poured a cup for Mo Wuji.
After doing this, Teng Feiyan raised his cup and downed it in one gulp. "I'm here to receive an envoy from the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos. Otherwise, I would definitely have gone to the Mortal Pill House to pay a visit to House Master Mo. I'll punish myself with this cup of wine. "
"I wouldn't dare," Mo Wuji replied before downing the cup of wine in one gulp.
Teng Feiyan's heart jolted. He was sure that Mo Wuji didn't use his spiritual will to observe, nor did he secretly check if the wine was poisoned.
Mo Wuji didn't do anything, yet he dared to drink his wine? Did Mo Wuji believe that he, Teng Feiyan, was upright, or was he overly confident? As he thought about how Mo Wuji brought Du Hong out of the city hall, Teng Feiyan was soon sure that Mo Wuji wasn't being arrogant. Mo Wuji really wasn't afraid of being poisoned.
Teng Feiyan was even more determined to befriend this House Master Mo. At this moment, he was already regretting his decision to let Lang Bi bring Mo Wuji here. He should have paid a visit himself.
"Brother Mo, if you don't mind, you can call me Feiwen. Feiwen is my Emperor Title," Teng Feiyan said with a face full of smiles. He took the initiative to place Mo Wuji on the same level as him.
Mo Wuji hurriedly clasped his fists, "Yes, it is Mo Wuji's honour to receive Brother Feiwen's invitation."
"Haha …" Teng Feiyan chuckled. He was very satisfied with Mo Wuji's way of addressing him, "Is Brother Mo going to the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos?"
Mo Wuji knew that many people would have guessed his intentions. Since he was going to leave after making a fortune, it wasn't surprising that Teng Feiyan could guess his intentions. He immediately said, "Yes, I'm preparing to go to the Cosmos Communal Domain. I heard that business is better there."
Teng Feiyan nodded and said, "Brother Mo is right. The Cosmos Communal Domain is the common domain of the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos. This place is more suitable for cultivation and long-term residences. Peak grade treasures often appear there. However, it's not easy to find a shop in the Cosmos Communal Domain. "
Towards a person like Teng Feiyan, Mo Wuji had no intentions of befriending him. He knew that Teng Feiyan's friendship with him was entirely based on his strength. This wasn't a friend that he could go through thick and thin with.
Now that he heard Teng Feiyan's words, Mo Wuji's heart started pounding. Sometimes, even friends that didn't go through thick and thin with each other would still need to be made. Mo Wuji was naturally aware of Teng Feiyan's words. Teng Feiyan was trying to befriend him.
At the thought of this, Mo Wuji hurriedly stood up and clasped his fists once more, "Please advise me, Brother Feiwen."
Teng Feiyan smiled faintly, "I wouldn't dare to advise you. However, Brother Mo and I feel like old friends. No matter what, I have to help you. The place where I stay in the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos is called the Heaven's Beyond Immortal Union. When Brother Mo arrives at the Heaven's Beyond Cosmos, you can look for me directly. "
