At the Silver Moon Mountain Manor:
The Old Manor Lord sat in the pavilion and gently played the ancient zither that had already withered like a piece of rotten wood. When the sound of the zither came out, the surrounding vegetation in the valley withered and turned yellow. In the hazy mist, there seemed to be vague figures condensing into clouds.
Suddenly, a trace of emerald green appeared in the withered and yellow forest. It was like a new life force broke through the decaying environment and was reborn from adversity.
"Buzz!"
However, before that trace of emerald green could grow, the surrounding withered and yellow forest buried it in the blink of an eye.
"Haha! I am not fated to enter again. My time is almost up. Perhaps this is also a kind of release!" The old Manor Lord smiled faintly.
The zither music slowly stopped. The old Manor Lord did not get angry at all. Instead, he turned his head and looked at Yun Mo, who was behind him.
"What's wrong? Did something happen in the city today?" the old Manor Lord asked with a smile.
"Manor Lord told me to pay attention to Gu Hai's situation. Today, no, even now, Gu Hai is still in the midst of a gambling match!" Yun Mo smiled bitterly.
"A gambling match? A zither duel? "the old Manor Lord asked, feeling confused.
"No, a chess match!" Yun Mo said strangely.
Then, Yun Mo described what he knew.
"Chess? Hahahahaha! What a great chess match! This Gu Hai is really surprising! "the old Manor Lord said with a smile.
"Manor Lord, this Gu Hai's background is very strange. It is very strange!" Yun Mo said with a frown.
"It is good that it is strange. It is interesting when it is strange. My time is almost up, and I am lucky to be able to meet this Gu Hai before my soul scatters. With this memory, I will not be lonely when I go to the netherworld!" the old Manor Lord said with a smile.
However, Yun Mo frowned and said, "Manor Lord, if you leave, what will happen to my Silver Moon Mountain Manor?"
"Silver Moon Mountain Manor? Didn't I leave it to you? If I die, you will be the new Manor Lord. No one will dare to stop you! "the old Manor Lord said solemnly.
"However, Manor Lord, the Silver Moon Mountain Manor cannot do without you!" Yun Mo said worriedly.
"What's wrong with that? Silver Moon Mountain Villa was founded by your ancestor, I am just managing it on behalf of my teacher. My teacher is your great ancestor. Unfortunately, your clan has withered and you're the only one left in your generation. However, you're the rightful successor, nobody dares to deny it. Don't worry, all the disciples of Silver Moon Mountain Villa will listen to you. "said the old villa master.
"But …!"
"Are you blaming me for giving away the last Heavenly Zither, the Gouchen? Sigh! Idiot, I'm giving it away for your own good. You don't have the ability to keep it! Once I am gone, Gouchen will definitely become the scourge of the Silver Moon Villa. But if I give it away, it will become the Silver Moon Mountain Villa's protection. Daqiansheng owes the Silver Moon Mountain Villa a favor, and Lüyang Of Gojoseon also owes the Silver Moon Mountain Villa a favor. Now, someone else will owe us a favor. I am doing this for your own good. You are too weak. A favor is the most important thing to protect you! "The Old Manor Master sighed slightly.
"I don't!" Yun Mo shook his head.
The Old Manor Master smiled and said, "Yun Mo, the Heavenly Zither is an unattainable thing for outsiders, but is it unattainable for the Silver Moon Mountain Villa? These four zithers were all made by your ancestors. Their blood flows in your body. If they can make zithers, can't you? Although you may not be very talented in music, you're more meticulous than anyone else when it comes to zithers. Yun Mo, don't mind Gouchen. In the future, I hope you can strive for perfection and work hard to make a new Heavenly Zither! "
Yun Mo shook his head and said, "Villa Master, I don't care about Gouchen. I also believe that one day, I will be able to make one. But, Villa Master, you can obviously survive!"
"Survive?" The Old Manor Master's face turned cold.
"Yes, you can. Zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Zither Dao is different from other things. Zither Dao can seize the fortune of heaven and earth. You can use Zither Dao to live forever …!" Yun Mo shouted.
"Shut up!" The Old Manor Master glared at him.
Yun Mo's face stiffened.
"What you're doing is evil. Zither Dao is Zither Dao. It's the righteous path of heaven and earth. Don't learn from those 'Longevity Masters'. Humph, Longevity Cultivators are ranked first, but do you know what they are? They are evil, evil, and demon. How many of them have a good ending? In the whole world, how many Longevity Masters are left? They are seeking death. In the end, they will only leave behind the destruction of their souls. Do you want to learn from them? "The Old Manor Master glared at him.
Yun Mo bit his lips and his eyes turned slightly red. "Villa Master treats me like a parent, but I don't want your soul to be destroyed!"
"Idiot, everyone will die one day. Sigh!" The Old Manor Master sighed slightly.
Master Mo led a group of people to the First Zither Pavilion.
Along the way, the staff of the Chess Pavilion described everything they knew about Gu Hai.
"Oh? Elite Hall's Water Division Master? He threw away seven hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones to save a group of Acquired Realm cultivators? Then, he opened the First Zither Pavilion and in less than two months, he crushed the First Zither Pavilion in the world? A strange musical instrument that earns a lot of money every day? "Master Mo frowned and pondered.
"Yes, Young Master An and Manager Jiang Tianyi have been competing hard, but they can't win!" The staff of the Chess Pavilion said respectfully.
"The point deduction method is wonderful. It's survival of the fittest. Of course, they can't win. This Gu Hai is indeed a talent. No, he's a genius!" Master Mo's eyes lit up.
"Ah?"
Master Mo didn't care about other people's reactions. He slowly stepped off the crane carriage. With his subordinates opening the way, he squeezed the crowd of cultivators away and slowly walked into the inner part.
"Pa!"
"Thank you!" Gu Hai's voice came from the inner part.
"Good job, Master Gu. Kill him, hahahaha!"
"Young Master An, hurry, hurry, the seventh property, give it to Master Gu. You only have one chance left!"
"Hahaha, there's only one round left. I wonder how many properties Young Master An has left to bet?"
… … …
… … …
… …
The surrounding people cheered.
Young Master An's insults and Jiang Tianqi's sorrowful and indignant voice came from the crowd.
Master Mo paused as he looked around at the shouting crowd. He frowned slightly and said, "What the people want? Young Master An, against such an opponent, you are destined to lose! "
"Huh? Master, I heard that there's one more round! "a subordinate whispered.
"One more round? He already lost. How can there be one more round? Humph! He squandered away all of His Highness' properties! "Master Mo said coldly.
Master Mo slowly walked to the end of the crowd, where a large number of soldiers were blocking him.
Master Mo took out a medallion. A subordinate quickly delivered the medallion to the City Lord, He Shikang.
When He Shikang saw the medallion, his expression changed, and he immediately turned his head. Just as he was about to speak, Master Mo shook his head gently.
"Go and invite that mister over. Be more polite!" He Shikang instructed the subordinate in a soft voice.
"Yes!"
Master Mo was quietly brought to a spot not far from He Shikang. He left the other subordinates at the periphery.
The place was too chaotic. Many people did not notice that there was another person beside He Shikang.
However, in a small pavilion in the distance, Sima Changkong narrowed his eyes. "Mo Yike?"
Master Mo looked at the field quietly.
In the last game, Gu Hai only placed three pieces and solved it instantly.
Three pieces? Only three pieces?
"Thank you, Young Master An!" Gu Hai stood up and smiled.
"Impossible, impossible! I carefully prepared the incomplete piece, comprehended from the 28 Lines of Heaven and Earth. How could it be solved? No, no!" Jiang Tianqi had already lost his mind.
"Die!" Young Master An flew into a rage out of humiliation and struck out with his palm.
"Pfft!" Jiang Tianqi was sent flying by the palm and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Young Master An!" Jiang Tianyi and the others called out worriedly.
"Lu An, are you such a sore loser? If you're willing to bet, you're willing to admit defeat. If you lose, you lose. These properties will belong to the First Zither Pavilion on this street! "Long Wanqing stood in front of Gu Hai and glared at Lu An.
Gu Hai pulled Long Wanqing away. At this time, he did not want to hide behind a woman.
"Young Master An, if you want to teach this insensible subordinate a lesson, please go back and do so. This is the First Zither Pavilion on this street. This is not your house! "Gu Hai said coldly.
Young Master An was furious. This is not my house?
"What nonsense is this First Zither Pavilion? Someone, tear it apart for me! Fang Minghou, tear down the First Zither Pavilion on this street and raze it to the ground! "Young Master An roared with bloodshot eyes.
Not far away, Master Mo narrowed his eyes and prepared to stop Young Master An.
However, the subordinate behind Young Master An with a golden core on his back moved too quickly.
"Hah!"
With a loud shout, a huge golden energy saber slashed toward the First Zither Pavilion on this street.
The vast power swept up a storm in an instant.
"Oh no, they're going to destroy the First Zither Pavilion on this street!"
"Go and stop them. No, help Master Gu!"
"It's too late. It's too late. This person is from the Yuanying State! And he's from the Yuanying State at its peak! "
…
…
…
The surrounding cultivators exclaimed. However, no one could save them in time.
Was the First Zither Pavilion on this street going to be destroyed just like that?
Young Master An's eyes were red. The surrounding cultivators were restless. A group of soldiers blocked the people. The First Zither Pavilion on this street was about to be destroyed.
Long Wanqing and Mu Chenfeng looked anxious. Gu Hai, on the other hand, smiled coldly.
At this moment, rolling clouds suddenly appeared at the First Zither Pavilion on this street.
As soon as the clouds appeared, a loud shout came from inside, "I have the strength to pick up mountains, and my aura is unparalleled!"
With a loud shout, a Fangtian Halberd suddenly appeared in the clouds. The Fangtian Halberd slashed toward Fang Minghou's golden saber.
"Hong ~ ~ ~ ~ ~!"
A super loud sound was heard, and a storm instantly swept in all directions.
Under everyone's shocked gazes, Fang Minghou's golden saber was blocked. Moreover, the powerful force knocked Fang Minghou into the First Zither Pavilion in the world.
"Rumble!"
The First Zither Pavilion in the world collapsed.
"What?" Young Master An's expression changed.
"This, this is?" Jiang Tianqi, who was vomiting blood on the ground, said in shock.
"Oh, this is the Twenty-Eight Line-Pair Heaven and Earth Formation. I've made a lot of spiritual stones recently, so I set up a strengthened version!" Gu Hai said with a smile.
"The Twenty-Eight Line-Pair Heaven and Earth Formation? Impossible, impossible! How do you know the Twenty-Eight Line-Pair Heaven and Earth Formation? "Jiang Tianqi roared, his eyes wide open.
"I told you before that the Twenty-Eight Line-Pair Heaven and Earth Formation is nothing, but you didn't believe me. There's nothing I can do!" Gu Hai shook his head and sighed.
"You know the Twenty-Eight Line-Pair Heaven and Earth Formation? You knew it long ago? Why didn't you say so earlier? Why didn't you say so earlier? Pfft! "Jiang Tianqi vomited another mouthful of blood.
The Twenty-Eight Line-Pair Heaven and Earth Formation that he was so proud of was just Gu Hai's leftovers? Why didn't you say so earlier? Why didn't you say so earlier?
Jiang Tianqi was in despair.
Young Master An's eyes widened. Young Master An was well aware of Fang Minghou's strength, but the formation had actually blocked it all? So Gu Hai knew the Twenty-Eight Line-Pair Heaven and Earth Formation that Jiang Tianqi had been so proud of? How could this be?
"Young Master An, enough is enough!" Gu Hai said indifferently.
"Bastard, those properties belong to my grandfather. Gu Hai, I won't let you go, I won't let you go. He Shikang, take Gu Hai for me. Take him for me. I'm going to confiscate his property!" Young Master An roared with a ferocious expression.
He looked at City Lord He Shikang as he roared, but he saw He Shikang standing there motionless, while the grey-robed old man beside him was looking at him coldly.
"Ah? Mr. Mo, why are you here? "Young Master An's expression changed, and he shuddered.
"Oh, Young Master An, you still remember me. Young Master An, you're so capable. You ruined the lord's properties one by one. Are you happy?" Lord Mo sneered.
"Ah? Mr. Mo, listen to me, it's all Gu Hai's fault. He lied to us. By the way, Mr. Mo, you're also very good at chess. You've played the Twenty-Nine Line-Pair Heaven and Earth Formation before. You must be able to beat him. You must be able to win it back! "Young Master An ran over with excitement.
"Slap!"
However, Mr. Mo suddenly struck out with his palm.
The slap was very light, but it was extremely loud.
If it was light, it was just an ordinary slap. If it was loud, it was because after the slap, everyone on the street fell silent and sucked in a breath of cold air.
What kind of person was this? Was he so awesome? That was Young Master An, the grandson of Lüyang Of Gojoseon. How could he just slap him like that?
"You, you, you dare to hit me? I am, I am …! "Young Master An covered his mouth and stared at Mr. Mo.
"The lord's grandson? Haha, believe it or not, as long as I tell the lord, you're no longer the grandson of the lord. Even your father can forget about being the son of the lord's first wife. Among your uncles, a large group of them are clapping their hands and cheering? "Mr. Mo said coldly.
Young Master An covered his mouth and shuddered. He looked at Mr. Mo, gritted his teeth, and finally lowered his head.
Not far away, Long Wanqing whispered to Gu Hai, "This is Lüyang Of Gojoseon's number one strategist, Mo Yike! Lüyang Of Gojoseon values him very much! "
"I can see that!" Gu Hai smiled bitterly.
With one slap, Young Master An had no temper. It was obvious that he was in Lüyang Of Gojoseon's camp.
"Mr. Mo, I, I did wrong, but you can win it back!" Young Master An covered his mouth and said politely in a low voice.
"It seems that you still haven't learned enough? I won't help you gamble, hmph! "Mr. Mo looked at Young Master An coldly.
Young Master An's face stiffened, and his eyes were full of grievance.
"Oh, it seems that I have to mention it to the lord. Are the teachers in the family's school all useless? How could they teach you such a thing? Didn't the school teachers teach you gambling? "Mr. Mo said coldly.
"Gambling? Huh? Mr. Mo, you said that Gu Hai cheated? "Young Master An said in surprise.
"Slap!"
Mr. Mo slapped him again.
The surroundings were quiet. Young Master An covered his mouth on both sides and looked at Mr. Mo in shock.
"Hmph, gambling? It's to teach you the knowledge to be on guard when gambling in the future. The first lesson is that you lose ten out of ten gambles! You can't gamble easily! The second lesson is to know yourself and your enemy to win a hundred battles! To set up a bet, you must understand the opponent's situation! Do you know yourself and your enemy?
Do you know Gu Hai's situation? How dare you set up a bet?
I've never seen a fool like you who sets up a bet. You're the banker, but you lost everything? You still have the nerve to mention gambling?
Know yourself and your enemy. It's fine if you don't know Gu Hai's situation, but you don't even know your own situation?
Jiang Tianqi's chess skills, do you think he's invincible? Find someone to set up a bet? "Mo Yike said coldly.
"Me!" Young Master An opened his mouth.
"Jiang Tianyi!" Mo Yike looked at Jiang Tianyi, who was not far away.
"Here!" Jiang Tianyi said fearfully.
"How dare you set up a bet in the lord's name? Are you trying to frame the lord?" Mo Yike glared.
"I … I …!" Jiang Tianyi said bitterly.
"Mr. Mo, I'm the one who lost these properties. You can't just throw them away like that, right?" Young Master An said fearfully.
Mo Yike reached out his right hand. Young Master An covered his mouth with both hands, not daring to say anything.
"Humph, you're shameless, but the lord is. If you lose, you lose. Do you want to rob him?" Mo Yike glared.
"Slap!"
Another slap landed on Young Master An's face.
"Well done!"
"Mr. Mo, well done!"
"You're embarrassing the lord. You deserve it!"
…
…
…
The cultivators around them laughed.
Although it seemed abrupt at first, they got used to it after a while. Seeing Young Master An get hit by Mr. Mo, the crowd was very satisfied.
Fang Minghou, who walked out of the ruins, was surprised to see Mo Yike. He stood aside respectfully, not daring to go forward.
"Jiang Tianyi, I thought highly of you before. That's why I entrusted you with the affairs of Silver Moon City. How dare you mess it up like this?" Mo Yike looked at Jiang Tianyi coldly.
"Please punish me, sir!" Jiang Tianyi knelt down and said bitterly.
"What did you do wrong? Do you know now?" Mo Yike looked at Jiang Tianyi coldly.
"There are rules in every profession. From the beginning, I couldn't let Young Master An do whatever he wanted in the Number One Music Tower! Then, I made more mistakes! I didn't stop Young Master An in time! "Jiang Tianyi said bitterly.
"Hum, you can still be saved. You still know that there are rules in the industry. You can reap what you sow. I have told you before that you can't step out of the circle. You really have a good memory!" Mo Yike said coldly.
Jiang Tianyi knelt on the ground, not daring to speak.
After Mo Yike vented his anger, he turned to look in Gu Hai's direction.
"Mo Yike greets Elite Hall Master and Mr. Goode!" Mo Yike's expression instantly became gentle.
Long Wanqing was slightly stunned. "Greetings, Mr. Mo!"
Gu Hai nodded.
"Mr. Goode, Young Master An is young and frivolous. I apologize to Mr. Goode on their behalf!" Mo Yike bowed slightly to Gu Hai.
Bowing to Gu Hai?
The surrounding crowd was stunned. The moment Mister Mo arrived, he gave Young Master An a few slaps in a domineering manner. Now, he was bowing to Gu Hai?
Gu Hai was also slightly stunned. "Mr. Mo, you're too polite. You don't have to do this!"
"It's my duty. I'm just expressing my attitude to Mr. Goode. Lu An and the others' actions don't represent His Highness' actions. His Highness has always been thirsty for talents like Mr. Goode. I'm not talented, but I just want to be on good terms with Mr. Goode. I sincerely invite Mr. Goode to work together!" Mo Yike said with a smile.
Long Wanqing stared at Mo Yike with wide eyes. What was going on? Was he trying to poach him?
They had just met, and he was already trying to help Lüyang Of Gojoseon recruit Gu Hai?
In a small attic not far away. Sima Changkong narrowed his eyes. "This Mo Yike is indeed Lüyang Of Gojoseon's number one strategist. He immediately saw the value of Gu Hai and wants to recruit subordinates for Lüyang Of Gojoseon? He's really quick to act! "
Countless cultivators around them looked at this scene blankly. They couldn't keep up with this pace. They were fighting to the death just now, but in the blink of an eye, they were treating the wise with courtesy?
Gu Hai also looked at Mo Yike blankly. He then smiled bitterly. "Mr. Mo, you must be joking. In this situation, isn't Mr. Mo's efforts futile? Don't ever mention this again! "
"No, no, Mr. Goode doesn't know His Highness's attitude towards talents. As long as Mr. Goode is willing to enter His Highness's residence, then Young Master An? Haha, he won't be His Highness's legitimate grandson anymore. He'll be an ordinary royal grandson. Mr. Goode, you don't have to worry about him causing you trouble! "Mo Yike said.
Young Master An's expression changed. He looked terrified.
The surrounding cultivators were in an uproar. Did Mr. Mo have so much power? Legitimate grandson? That was the highest status among Lüyang Of Gojoseon's grandchildren. If Lüyang Of Gojoseon passed away, his legitimate grandson would succeed him. If his legitimate grandson passed away, his legitimate grandson would succeed him.
Mr. Mo just removed his status just like that?
