The old man couldn't help but smile wryly. "If it's related to the Jin Family, then this matter … might be a little troublesome."
Hong Qiang retorted. "So what? We, the Hong Family, are the ones who are at a disadvantage! How could the Jin family dare to come back and show off after getting the benefits? "
"I'm just afraid someone will take advantage of this." The old man said softly. "This is a crucial time!"
Hong Qiang's eyes flashed with killing intent. After a while, he took a deep breath and said, "Guards!"
…
Inside the room of the inn, a man and a rooster stared at each other.
After a long while, the rooster said, "Kid, thank you for today."
"No need to thank me, I'm not an outsider." Chu Mo said, "I just don't know if this counts as poking a hornet's nest."
"Why don't we leave?" Big Rooster was starting to feel a little guilty.
When a temper flared up, who would care so much? In a strange place like this, if they caused trouble, they could just walk away.
In any case, whether it was Chu Mo or the rooster, they both had absolute confidence that they would be able to escape if danger came. Naturally, no one wanted to suffer that kind of humiliation.
"There's no need." Chu Mo smiled. "He's just a good-for-nothing rich kid. We'll stay here for a few days, at least we need to get a few maps of the Spiritual Realm!"
The big rooster thought about it and felt that Chu Mo's words made sense.
Even if he could find the location of the Fairy Clan, it would be easier if he had a map of the Spiritual Realm.
Otherwise, he couldn't do anything if he couldn't find any traces of the Fairy Clan.
At this time, someone knocked on the door. Chu Mo and the rooster looked at each other. Chu Mo asked, "Who is it?"
"I'm from the Hong Family. My son didn't know any better and offended you. I'm here to apologize on his behalf!"
A deep and gentle voice came from the door.
Chu Mo and the rooster were startled. What's going on? Didn't the owner of the inn say that the Hong Family was scary? How could he be so polite?
Chu Mo walked over and opened the door. There were three people standing inside, and the one in the lead was a middle-aged man in his forties.
The middle-aged man looked very elegant, with a gentle smile on his face. His aura was completely restrained, making it impossible to see his cultivation level. When he saw Chu Mo, he immediately cupped his fists and bowed. "I'm Hong Tianlan. Greetings, Young Master!"
Chu Mo returned the greeting with cupped fists. "I am Chu Mo. Nice to meet you, Mr. Hong."
Hong Tianlan said with a smile, "The Hong Clan is not strict enough and offended Young Master Chu. We feel very sorry and have specially prepared some gifts for Young Master Chu. We hope that Young Master Chu will not stoop to their level."
After saying that, Hong Tianlan ordered the two attendants behind him to bring the gift box to the room. Then, the two attendants bowed and left.
At this moment, the Divine Mirror of Firmament emitted a little heat. This was the hint that the Firmament Mirror had encountered a treasure.
However, based on this heat, Chu Mo could determine that this treasure wasn't particularly valuable. But that was only to Chu Mo!
To the Hong Clan, this was probably their greatest sincerity.
Chu Mo could not help but be slightly stunned. He looked at Hong Tianlan and said, "This … is there a need for this? It's not a big deal. Moreover, I was the one who hurt the Hong Clan. "
"Those people deserved it!" Hong Tianlan said with a face of justice. "The Hong Clan is a big family with a big business. It's inevitable that there will be a few scum. We don't have much time to discipline them. We can't wait for someone to teach them a lesson! "
After hearing that, Chu Mo said, "If that's the case, then let's forget about this matter."
At this time, he could not continue being polite. Now, the Hong Clan obviously thought of him as someone with a powerful background. If he were to be humble and courteous, it would make the other party feel that he was nothing special.
Chu Mo had always been very clear about these people's thoughts.
As expected, Hong Tianlan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard what Chu Mo said. Then, he sat there for a while, as if he wanted to find out about Chu Mo's background.
How could Chu Mo let him have his way? He was completely confused and made up a bunch of nonsense. Chu Mo had seen too many top cultivators in the Illusory God Realm. It was very easy for him to fool this small cultivator from the Spiritual Realm.
Therefore, when Hong Tianlan walked out of the inn, his head was still a little dizzy.
Even when he returned to the Hong Clan, he still could not completely wake up. In his mind, that young man's faint voice still lingered.
"Things like realms are only useful for some people. Who says that the faster one improves one's realm, the better? Haven't you heard of stories where one's state of mind cannot keep up and leads to Qi Deviation? "
"Master? Hehe, let's not talk about my master. Really, it's meaningless to talk about it. It's like I'm scaring people. "
"Body Tempering? Hahaha, that's funny. Do I look like those cultivators who temper their bodies? All of them are big and burly … I don't like them. Do you know anything about bloodlines? "
When Hong Tianlan reported to Hong Qiang, his mind was still in a mess.
That young man's knowledge was too profound! He originally wanted to test the other party and verify his quality, so he casually asked a few questions. In the end, the other party's answers completely exceeded his understanding.
In the end, he, a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, could only admit defeat. In his heart, he was sure that this young man definitely came from a famous family. Although his realm was not high, he was definitely not someone to be trifled with.
Hong Qiang listened to Hong Tianlan's story and frowned in silence.
On the other hand, Elder Zhao looked at Hong Tianlan and asked, "That young man … mentioned the word bloodline?"
"Yes, he asked me if I know anything about bloodlines," Hong Tianlan answered subconsciously.
"Then what did you say?" Elder Zhao asked with a serious expression.
Hong Tianlan said, "I said I know. The descendants of the strong are usually very strong. This is the advantage of bloodlines!"
"How did that young man answer you?" Elder Zhao asked.
Hong Tianlan scratched his head. "He didn't answer me …"
"Hmm?" Elder Zhao looked at him.
"He just chuckled and changed the topic," Hong Tianlan said honestly.
"Sigh!" Elder Zhao sighed.
At this time, even the family head, Hong Qiang, looked at Elder Zhao strangely. "Tianlan, is what he said wrong?"
Elder Zhao smiled bitterly and shook his head. "I can't say right or wrong. However, that young man must not be provoked! I can see that he has no intention of doing anything to our Hong family. Didn't Tianlan have a good chat with him this time? Very good, very good! It would be best if we can become friends. But even if we can't become friends, we must remember, no matter what … do not make an enemy out of him! "
"Why?" Hong Qiang rarely saw Elder Zhao so serious. He was very puzzled.
"This young man's background is much greater than what we imagined. The Jin family … Hmph, the Jin family is not even worthy of carrying his shoes! "Elder Zhao said.
Hong Qiang was dumbfounded. His family's status was equal to the Jin family. Didn't Elder Zhao's words mean that the Hong family of Silken City was also not worthy of carrying his shoes?
Elder Zhao glanced at Hong Qiang. "Patriarch, don't be unconvinced. If you don't believe me, just watch! "
