Chapter 117 Shocks the Entire Audience
Xiao Yan sat with Mo Linglin, who occasionally struck up a conversation with him. However, Xiao Yan showed no interest in the beautiful woman beside him, his gaze lingering on the interior of the Mo family mansion.
Xiao Yan's strength has now reached the Dou Wang realm, and his soul power is not even comparable to that of an ordinary Dou Huang.
He had already been using his soul power to investigate when he first entered the Mohist school.
But this artificial mountain of the Mo family was indeed as strange as he had imagined. The aura inside was mixed, and there was the aura of various magical beasts inside. It was so chaotic that even he could not distinguish it.
However, Xiao Yan quickly put aside his thoughts. Since he couldn't find it, he would fight it.
Mo Cheng is the only Dou Ling in the entire Mo family, just like how the Xiao family immediately fell into a second-rate power after his grandfather Xiao Lin died.
If the Mohist school lost Mo Cheng, its status would decline significantly. It is estimated that after several decades, its influence would be less than one-tenth of what it is now.
Just as Xiao Yan was pondering, an old man walked out with a smile and bowed to everyone present.
Mo Cheng is only sixty years old this year, but he is still full of energy and does not have the demeanor of an old man. On the contrary, his cultivation has improved in recent years, which has greatly enhanced his overall spirit.
"This is Mo Cheng, the Great Elder of the Mo family? I remember he was only a two-star Dou Ling two years ago. He has risen to three stars in just two years. This speed is too strange."
People his age have long since exhausted their potential, but when people reach sixty, their cultivation actually accelerates.
If given another ten years, the Mo family might produce another Dou Wang expert. At that time, no other family in the entire northeastern region of the empire will be able to rival the Mo family!
"Hehe, I am honored that you all have graced me with your presence at my birthday banquet. However, today's events are not a big deal, as it is merely my personal birthday celebration."
Mo Cheng smiled broadly, but his words carried a hidden meaning, causing everyone present to turn their heads in surprise.
"Oh, what is this important matter that Mr. Mo mentioned?"
The speaker was the Lord of Yancheng. Although he belonged to the royal family of the Jia Ma Empire, he had received many benefits from the Mo family over the years and was basically the Mo family's most steadfast ally.
"Since the city lord has asked, I will speak frankly. Over the years, I have been considering something."
The power of one person can never compare to the power of everyone working together. So I decided to gather all the surrounding forces and families to form a united organization.
"I've already decided on the name of the organization: the Ink Alliance. All forces willing to join the Ink Alliance will receive resources and military support from the Mo family. We'll be united as one, without distinction, and if we encounter difficulties in the future, we can overcome them together. What do you all think?"
Anyone could understand the meaning behind Mo Cheng's words. He called it a coalition, but in reality, he wanted to incorporate and integrate all the surrounding forces.
However, the Mo family does indeed have the strength now. If Mo Cheng could become a Dou Wang, he could almost decide today's events on his own.
"Hehe, Mr. Mo is truly insightful. If the Mo Alliance is to be established, it must have a leader."
"I think it would be better if Mr. Mo himself took on the role. If it were you, I'm sure everyone would be convinced."
Looking at the group of people cheering him on below the stage, Xiao Yan made almost no attempt to hide his disdain.
That old man's wolfish ambitions were practically written all over his face.
"In that case, I will accept your kind offer and reluctantly assume the position of leader of the Ink Alliance."
The Mo Alliance is merely announcing this matter; those who are unwilling to join the Mo Alliance will naturally be targeted by the Mo family.
"You must be Mo Cheng, but before you become the leader of the alliance, there is one more thing I want to ask you."
Just as Mo was feeling smug, Xiao Yan suddenly stepped forward.
He had already changed into a black robe, using his soul power to conceal his face and aura.
"Who are you? If you have important matters to discuss with the Mo family, you can wait until after the birthday banquet to discuss them privately."
.
Mo Cheng smiled, but he was indeed dissatisfied with the black-robed man who had suddenly appeared. If it weren't for the large number of forces that had come to the Mo family today, he probably would have captured the guy on the spot.
"Let's skip the private discussion. I have nothing to say to you, old man. I only have one question: where is the little girl you took away a while ago?"
Upon hearing Xiao Yan mention the little girl, Mo Cheng's expression changed drastically.
He finally figured out that the little girl was the legendary Jade Serpent Three-Flower Pupil. If he could use the family's secret technique to transplant it, he might be able to use this power to advance to the Dou Huang level!
At that time, he would no longer need to bow down to the Yunlan Sect, and the Mo family would no longer be confined to a mere Yancheng.
"This guy is an intruder! Get him!"
That little girl was the first step in Mo Cheng's ambition, and he could not possibly give her up under any circumstances. However, it was not easy to say such things outright, so he could only strike first and kill her.
Under Mo Cheng's command, several Dou Shi jumped out and surrounded Xiao Yan, ready to attack him.
Xiao Yan merely snorted coldly, without making a move, as twelve four- or five-star Dou Ling fire beasts condensed around him!
"What is this? A fighting technique? Or a magical beast?"
The surrounding guests were shocked, as they could only sense the terrifying temperature and power of these fire monsters, and none of them dared to approach.
The Dou Shi who surrounded Xiao Yan were all killed by the fire beast in a single encounter.
"I'll say it again, hand over that little girl."
Xiao Yan's tone was cold, and his aura had already locked onto Mo Cheng.
"Hmph, such a madman dares to run wild in my Mo family! Die!"
Mo Cheng conjured a large execution axe with both hands, which is the origin of his title "Executioner Mo".
He unleashed all his fighting spirit at Xiao Yan, but this powerful strike was blocked by one of the fire beasts, preventing him from advancing even half a step.
"Overestimating one's abilities."
Xiao Yan personally intervened and slapped Mo Cheng, sending him flying backward, spitting out blood, and crashing into the wall of the Mo family.
If Xiao Yan hadn't spared his life to find out Qing Lin's whereabouts, he would already be dead.
Everyone present was shocked. To casually slap a five-star Dou Ling away, that kind of strength must be at least at the Dou Wang level.
"You—if you kill me, that little girl will have to pay with her life!"
Mo Cheng's words did not threaten Xiao Yan; on the contrary, they relieved him, indicating that Qing Lin was still alive.
"Therefore, hand over the people, or we will slaughter the Mo family!"
Xiao Yan's aura was incredibly powerful, and with twelve Douling Fire Beasts surrounding him, no one present dared to make a rash move.
Even Ge Ye was surprised. When did the Jia Ma Empire produce such a person?
The usually indifferent and expressionless girl, Nalan Yanran, showed a slight movement in her beautiful eyes the moment Xiao Yan made his move: "That voice—it sounds so familiar."
