Seeing Chen Shijie's determination, Mo Lao Liu's heart began to drum up, and for a moment, his face changed unpredictably, hesitating not daring to speak.

  "How about it? Are you afraid to send someone to verify?" Chen Shijie asked.

  "What if your daughter doesn't obey her wifely duties?" Mo Danyan stepped forward and said, seeing that Mo Laoliu didn't dare to respond.

  "If so, then it's no wonder that Smoke has a reason for her actions. Let's discuss this further and we won't pursue the matter!" Chen Shijie said.

  "All right, Madam Mo, you go and call the midwife up here!" Old Master Mo turned to say to Madame Mo.

  "Yes." Madam Mo nodded and was about to leave the hall when she beckoned a maid, saying: "Ruo Mei, quickly go and summon Mo Qiangniang."

  Mo Qingniang is also Mo's daughter, but she doesn't have spiritual roots and specializes in studying medicine. She is married to a man who moved into the Mo family.

  In a family of immortal cultivators like this, if a daughter without spiritual roots does not have the opportunity to marry into another family of immortal cultivators and has some special skills in her hands, she is often unwilling to leave her own family, and it's common for them to take in a son-in-law.

  Before long, a woman with a high coiffure and about thirty years old came hastily along with her maid.

  "Eleventh Young Madam." The woman saw Mo Hua and hastily paid her respects.

  Mo Hua's sleeves fluttered as she swept her entire body up and said, "No need for formalities, several uncles are calling you, come with me quickly."

  When Mo Daxian summoned them, Mo Qingniang's face was shocked. For ordinary daughters like them, it was rare to see the faces of senior cultivators from the previous generation.

  With a nervous heart, Mo Qingniang stepped into the grand hall with her head bowed and eyes downcast.

  "Wu Shu, the doctor has arrived." Mo Hua said in a clear voice.

  "Mo Qiangniang pays her respects——" Mo Qiangniang hurriedly bent both knees and was about to kneel down, but felt an invisible force holding her back, and unexpectedly stood up involuntarily.

  "It's all right, Mo Qingniang, come and take a look at the person in the coffin." Mo Danyan said impatiently.

  "Yes." Mo Qingniang said, looking towards the crystal coffin placed in the hall. But this glance made her take a big shock, the person inside the coffin was actually the tenth wife of the Mo family!

  Although the masters in the Mo family are superior beings, ordinary daughters like Mo Qiang have few opportunities to interact with them. However, as a doctor, she is still sought after by women in the clan who are not feeling well, including the maidservants who attend to the masters. As a result, she can easily recognize everyone.

  Mo Qingniang took a deep breath, barely calming her emotions, before walking towards the coffin, gazing at the lifelike face of the person inside, and letting out a faint sigh. She stretched out her hand, making a creaking sound as she pushed open the coffin lid.

  Immediately, Mo Qingniang took out a pair of extremely thin silk gloves from the box she was carrying and put them on her hands to examine the body.

  In the hall, it was so quiet that one could hear the sound of a needle falling to the ground. Everyone's eyes were involuntarily fixed on Mo Qiangniang's back.

  But Mo Qingniang, who was focused on the inspection, became increasingly pale as time passed. Slowly, big drops of sweat began to fall from her forehead and hit the ground.

  After a long while, Mo Qingniang finally stood up straight, slightly trembling as she looked towards Mo Danyan and the others.

  "How?" asked Mo Lao Liu, unable to help himself.

  Feeling Mo Lao Liu's astonishing aura, Mo Qingniang felt her body go limp and she sat down on the ground with a thud.

  "Hmph, are you trying to use your power to intimidate me? That's right, this doctor is originally from the Mo family, so it's natural that she's afraid of you!" Chen Shijie said in a low voice.

  "You!" Old Sixth Mo's eyes were practically spitting fire.

  Mo Dainian, who had never gotten along with Mo Lao Liu, was surprisingly calm at this moment and said loudly: "Mo Qiangniang, you don't have to worry about anything, just answer truthfully."

  "Go back... Go back to what Old Master Wu said, the 10th Young Mistress she... she..." At this point, Mo Qingniang's heart skipped a beat, her eyes closed, and she shouted loudly: "She was killed by an extremely sharp unknown weapon, and before her death... she had suffered cruel humiliation!"

  One sentence was like a thunderclap, exploding loudly in the great hall.

  "Hahahaha, Mo Danyan, Mo Dawei, now that things have come to this, what else can you say? Two brothers, please bear witness for me and seek justice for my wrongly killed daughter!"

  "Mo Qingniang, are you mistaken? This can't be! Are you certain she was humiliated to death and not..." Mo Lao Liu said sternly.

  Qingniang shrank back a little, but still said: "Qingniang... Qingniang only drew conclusions based on the surface of the corpse, perhaps, perhaps there may be biases that are not yet known..."

  "What a biased view! Now that things have come to this point, can your Mo family still deny it?" Chen Shijie asked.

  The atmosphere in the hall had reached a tense and critical point, while on the other side, Mo Qingchen and others were sitting in the garden's long pavilion, chatting idly.

  "I wonder what's going on in the hall, is it that Chen family coming again?" Mo Ningrou said softly, propping up her cheek.

  "I heard that this time it's not just people from the Chen family who came, but also those from the Hua and Ouyang families." Mo Yuqi said with a flicker of her eyes.

  Mo Ran's eyes slanted as she said, "Xiao Shi Si, since Wu Ye and Liu Ye forbade us from going to the front hall these past few days, you shouldn't think about it anymore."

  Mo Ning Rou bit her lip and said, "I just don't understand, the Chen family has always been on good terms with our Mo family, why do they have to push Ninth Sister to death? And the other two families actually came to assist, don't they know the principle of 'when lips are gone, teeth get cold'?"

  Listening to this, Mo Qingchu couldn't help but sigh in admiration, wondering if it was because children in ancient times matured early or if cultivators were exceptionally wise. However, an 8-9 year old girl was already discussing the consequences of a broken engagement with such composure. Upon further thought, considering that many people in this era got married at 13-14 years old, he felt relieved.

  "It's not that simple. The four families in Luoyang have always supported each other to increase their strength, in order to prevent other places' immortal families from robbing resources. But now, the spiritual mine held by the four families together is about to be depleted." Mo Xiaoba suddenly spoke up.

  "Oh? So Ba Ge also knows about these things?" Mo Ran asked with raised eyebrows.

  Mo Qingchen was secretly shocked, looking at the seemingly careless Mo Xiaobao, who actually knew all this, while he himself was completely in the dark about the situation of the Mo family and even the entire Luoyang City. It seemed that focusing solely on diligent cultivation also had its drawbacks.

  Mo Xiao Ba smiled indifferently: "It's just that I often hang out with those guys, and occasionally Chen Ming mentions it."

  "Hum, you still mention Chen Ming!" Mo Yuqi shot back.

  "Who knows what happened in the previous generation, when resources were exhausted, they worked together to think of a solution. Now, Chen Ming sees me and runs away."

  "Mo Xiaobai, I thought you had finally come around, but it turns out you're still a muddled fool!" Mo Ranfeng sneered.

  "Hmm?" Mo Xiaobao hummed in discontent.

  Mo Ran coldly snorted, "You're only thinking about cultivating resources, but do you know what the foundation of a family lies in? It's people, it's talented individuals. In this cultivation world, you should already know that having double spirit roots is a sign of exceptional talent. Our generation has not only produced two such individuals, but also an ice spirit root - Mo Fei Yan. This could be either a blessing or a curse for our family, the Mo clan. It might be the perfect opportunity for us to rise to prominence... or it could be the source of our downfall!"

  "Ah!" Mo Ning softly exclaimed, then asked, "But if that's the case, why didn't the three families show any signs before?"

  Mo Ran shook his head and said, "Qing Rou, you're still young and don't understand human nature. Although the other three families are envious of our Mo family, they won't harm Mo Fei Yan without reason. After all, the four families have always been connected by a common breath, and everyone hopes that their own clan will produce a genius. If every time someone appears, they are strangled by the other three families, this is also something they don't want to see. However, if Mo Fei Yan commits an error and gets caught, they won't give up on this rare opportunity! How ridiculous of Mo Fei Yan, she's been studying hard all these years, I thought she was a clever person, but she did something foolish, putting herself in danger, not to mention bringing calamity to the entire Mo family!"

  At this time, the younger generation still did not know why Mo Fei Yan killed Shi Yi, but Mo Qing Chen was secretly shocked to hear it. He had always thought that Mo Ran Yi was just a proud and arrogant girl, but he didn't expect her to have such calculations in mind. It seems that the world of cultivation is full of talented individuals, and from now on, he must not underestimate anyone.

  Mo Ran's words somehow brought a hint of sorrow to the hearts of the young children, and for a moment, there was no one speaking in the long pavilion, only the clear bird calls that were annoying to listen to.

  At this moment, a white shadow came rushing from afar, and the speed of the white shadow was extremely fast. In an instant, everyone saw its appearance clearly, and it turned out to be Mo Feiyan!

  Mo Qing's heart skipped a beat, but in just a few days, Mo Fei Yan had withered away to this state. The wide robe and snowy sleeves hung on her as if they would float away at any moment.

  She's going to the living room!

  In a flash, Mo Qingchen thought of Mo Feiyan's destination and was shocked, unable to think much, he suddenly jumped out and blocked the middle of the road that Mo Feiyan must pass through.

  There was no way, Mo Fei Yan's speed was simply too fast for Mo Qing Chen, she didn't even have time to say anything to the others.

  Perhaps it was the smoke-like footsteps that stirred up the wind, and the Wind Control Technique was used to its utmost perfection. However, Mo Qingchen suddenly blocked his path, causing him to pause in his tracks.

  Mo Feiyan, who had already refined her Qi to the eighth layer, should have been extremely oppressive to a cultivator like Mo Qingchen who was only at the second layer. However, Mo Qingchen's mind was firm and his spiritual awareness far surpassed that of ordinary people, so he didn't feel anything out of the ordinary at this moment.

  " Ninth sister, all the brothers and sisters are chatting at Changting, why don't you join us? Let us have a chance to get close to you too." Mo Qingchen said in a clear voice.

  "Could it be that you're not surprised, Sixteen? Move aside."

  "Jiuzi——" Mo Qingchen said persistently.

  "Sixteen sister, I know you're a clever person, so let me through."

  Just then, another woman rushed over from afar and shouted loudly: "Quickly stop Fei Yan!"

  It turned out to be Aunt Mowu!

  Mo Fei Yan heard Mo You's voice, and with a fierce wave of her sleeve, Mo Qing Chen felt a gust of wind sweep in, causing his entire body to float and stumble backward to the side of the road.

  Then Mo Fei was like a shooting star, rushing towards the direction of the living room.
