"Maybe there is, maybe there isn't."
After pondering for a while, Wang Yinru could only answer Mo Wen this way. After all, she couldn't be sure about things that she didn't know.
Also, she had a doubt in her heart. Back then, her father had died unexpectedly. He had been murdered. What exactly was going on? Logically speaking, Jiang Quangui couldn't possibly have that ability. Back then, her father's Cultivation was far above Jiang Quangui's. Even if the Jiang Clan's two Embryonic Breathing realm experts joined forces to deal with her father, defeating him would be easy, but killing him would most likely not be an easy task.
That year, her father's death was inexplicable, and she had never been able to figure it out.
"Since we are already here, we can only take it one step at a time," Mo Wen said plainly. He wasn't worried about anything. If things didn't work out, then he would just give up.
"Our arrival today will definitely cause quite a commotion within the Dafang Sect. No matter what, the Jiang Clan will most likely come up with a strategy to deal with us. I can't just sit around. Later, I will use my identity as the Wang Clan's clan leader to get in touch with the other three aristocratic families of the Dafang Sect to see what their attitudes are, especially the Zhou Clan. If we can get the Zhou Clan's support, then our chances of success will be much higher. "
Wang Yinru pondered for a while, then said to Mo Wen.
Now, they were fighting alone. If they could get the support of the other three aristocratic families, then everything would be different. Their chances of success would be greatly increased. Hence, roping in the other three aristocratic families was the most important part of this matter.
"You stay in the courtyard. Don't have too much contact with the people of the Jiang Clan. I'm going out for a while."
After instructing Mo Wen, Wang Yinru hurriedly left the courtyard.
Naturally, Mo Wen wouldn't be loitering around for no reason. Or rather, he had no intention of interacting with others.
"Mo Wen, are you inside?"
Outside the small courtyard, a cautious voice sounded. Who else could it be but Gu Jingman's voice?
Upon hearing that, Mo Wen rolled his eyes. This Gu Jingman had indeed come looking for him. Just now, he was still wondering if this curious sister would follow them.
"Come in," Mo Wen said helplessly.
Gu Jingman, who was standing outside the courtyard hesitantly, heard Mo Wen's voice. She immediately pushed open the courtyard door and looked around. After confirming that there was no one around, she walked in like a thief.
"What are you doing?" Mo Wen was speechless. People who didn't know better would have thought that she was someone who was involved in secret underground work.
"My third uncle forbade me from contacting you, so I snuck out when he wasn't paying attention."
Gu Jingman clapped her hands and walked over to sit opposite Mo Wen with a smile.
"Then you still dare to come over?" Mo Wen rolled his eyes.
"What is there to be afraid of? We are all guests of the Dafang Sect. What can the Dafang Sect do to us?"
The Dafang Sect had invited them to participate in the Sect Leader Selection Meeting. If they dared to harm them, their reputation in the ancient martial arts world would be completely ruined.
For a sect, especially a large sect like the Dafang Sect, reputation was very important.
"Speaking of which, where did your mother go?" Gu Jingman looked around but didn't see Wang Yinru, so she asked curiously.
"Why do you care so much?"
Mo Wen rolled his eyes. He couldn't be bothered to say more to Gu Jingman. After all, that matter couldn't be explained clearly. Moreover, he couldn't explain it now.
"Aiyo, little brother, you have a temper. You aren't obedient at all. I haven't taught you a lesson in a long time. You don't even know how to respect your sister."
There was no one beside Mo Wen, so he didn't have to worry about anything. Gu Jingman immediately revealed her true nature. She pretended to flirtatiously look at Mo Wen and extended a sharp finger to poke Mo Wen's arm.
Wasn't it just a question? Yet, he was indifferent. She was so tsundere.
"Don't seduce people. The consequences are very serious."
Mo Wen looked at Gu Jingman's flirtatious look and smiled with a special meaning. That expression was exactly the same as the bad guys in the movies when they were about to do something bad.
"Pfft! I couldn't tell. When did you become so naughty? It can't be that Lin Qing taught you that, right? "
Gu Jingman didn't have the slightest awareness that there was a bad guy beside her. Instead, she burst out laughing. In the past, Mo Wen was very serious. It was said that he was still a virgin and was a little shy. Since when did he know how to flirt with girls? There was obviously a big change.
"Don't talk nonsense."
Mo Wen rolled his eyes. What did this have to do with Lin Qing? He had only hugged and touched her. He had no choice but to have some physical contact with her. Yet, he said it as if there was something going on. He was trying to tarnish her reputation.
"Normally, when a man immediately denies something, he definitely has a guilty conscience. Otherwise, why would he be so nervous? You and Lin Qing definitely have some unspeakable secret, right?"
Gu Jingman smiled playfully. She wouldn't believe what Mo Wen said. She had seen the scene that day. Lin Qing was wearing thin lingerie and allowed Mo Wen to hug her. Her skin was red and her eyes were watery. If nothing had happened between the two of them, she definitely wouldn't believe it.
However, she was very curious. Mo Wen's mother was so young and beautiful. Moreover, she seemed to be very caring and protective of him. There was no lack of beautiful women around him. For a family like this, there shouldn't be many Oedipus complex. Why would Mo Wen be interested in Lin Qing?
Wasn't it said that only lonely men would be deeply attracted to the charm of mature women?
Mo Wen was usually too lazy to deal with women's gossip. He picked up the teapot from the stone table and poured himself a cup of tea. He minded his own business and drank it.
"It's just a small matter. Why can't I admit it? Don't worry, I won't tell your mother. Although Lin Qing is a little older, don't all youngsters nowadays like mature women? Mature women, mature women, mothers, and all sorts of other types of women. "
Gu Jingman winked at Mo Wen, giving him a look that said she understood.
Pfft!
Mo Wen almost spat out a mouthful of tea. Luckily, he was strong and didn't spit it directly on Gu Jingman's face.
"Can you be more serious?" Mo Wen said, speechless.
"Are you shy? Alright, I know that you are still a youngster. It's normal for you to be a little shy. Then, I won't talk about these adult topics with you. "
Gu Jingman's lips curled up. A look of pride flashed in her eyes. It was as if his sister's high and mighty status was immediately highlighted in front of Mo Wen.
"If there's nothing else, then go back. It's very dangerous to stay by my side."
Mo Wen could naturally think of the things that Gu Jingman's third uncle could think of. This trip to the Dafang Sect and the Jiang Clan was a situation where only one party could survive. If Gu Jingman interacted too frequently with him, it would definitely attract the attention of the Jiang Clan. By then, she would most likely be dragged into this whirlpool.
"You are also chasing me away? You heartless thing. Alright, I'll leave immediately. "
Gu Jingman rolled her eyes at Mo Wen. She had come to visit him with good intentions. Not only was he not touched, he didn't even appreciate it.
"Then, I'll leave."
Gu Jingman snorted softly. She pretended to stand up and prepare to leave with a look of hidden bitterness.
"If you don't want to leave, then stay for a while longer." Mo Wen rolled his eyes.
"Alright then, I'll reluctantly accept your suggestion."
Mo Wen's voice had just fallen when Gu Jingman sat down again. She looked like she had no intention of leaving at all.
"You came all the way to the Dafang Sect just to participate in a Sect Leader Selection Meeting? It doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, right? "Mo Wen asked. The Dafang Sect's Sect Leader Selection Meeting had nothing to do with other sects. Yet, so many people had come to the Dafang Sect. Could it be that they were all so bored?
"You don't understand. That's called socializing, you know? The purpose of the small factions coming is to present gifts, flatter and fawn over the Dafang Sect, in an attempt to build a good relationship with the Dafang Sect. As for those large factions, it's purely a formality to show that they are friendly with the Dafang Sect and do not invade each other. Of course, there are also some people who have come for the trade fair organized by the Dafang Sect. "
"Every time the Dafang Sect's Sect Leader Selection Meeting is held, the Dafang Sect will take out many precious items from the sect to trade with other sects, factions, or individual ancient martial art practitioners. Many of those items are the sect's specialties. Normally, they are priceless. Even if you have money, you can't buy them. However, at the trade fair, you can buy some of the Dafang Sect's treasures at a very low price."
"Other than that, the Dafang Sect's Sect Leader Selection Meeting also attracts many merchants from the ancient martial arts world. Those merchants bring all kinds of rare shops to the Dafang Sect's trade fair. Many of the rare items are usually collected for a few years before being sold once. Naturally, it attracts a lot of people. "
"Our Gu Clan Fort received the Dafang Sect's invitation because our grandfather has a good relationship with one of the Dafang Sect's elders. Otherwise, we wouldn't have the qualifications to attend the meeting."
"Are there many good items in that trade fair?" Mo Wen asked curiously.
"Yes, there are many treasures. Many of the items are useful even for the ancient martial art practitioners in the Sea of Qi realm. Occasionally, there will be items that are useful for the strong practitioners in the Qi Nucleation realm. Those items are usually very difficult to buy," Gu Jingman explained.
"Yes, there are many treasures.
When an ancient martial art practitioner practiced to the Sea of Qi realm, the further he went, the harder it would be to practice. There would be fewer external forces that he could rely on. Normally, he could only rely on his own hard work to practice. Those items that could help the ancient martial art practitioners in the Sea of Qi realm and above in their practice were rare and scarce items. Normally, they might not even be able to buy them.
"This time, our Gu Clan Fort has brought many good items with the purpose of exchanging items with others at the trade fair."
The people from the Gu Clan Fort had come from afar. Other than to congratulate the Dafang Sect, they naturally had other motives.
Upon hearing this, Mo Wen immediately lost interest in the trade fair. Items that were valuable to the ancient martial art practitioners in the Qi Nucleation realm were rarely seen. That was practically useless to him. The items in the Huatian Palace's Four stars Redemption main hall were not even worth his attention. What could a small trade fair held by the Dafang Sect have?
