Chapter 565: Chapter 564 Influence

"Mo Zidong, paying respects to Mr. Ye," said Mo Zidong as he saluted Ye Xuan.

Upon witnessing this, everyone present was dumbfounded.

What’s going on here?!

Wasn’t it said that Ye Xuan was an acquaintance of Mo Yunchui? Logic would dictate that he should be dragged down and slaughtered, so why is there talk of this ’Mr. Ye’?

It was bizarre!

Bizarre to the extreme!

"No, could it be that this person has been won over by the new Family Head, Mo Yunli?" someone speculated in secret.

Otherwise, they couldn’t explain the current situation.

"Brother Mo, are you mistaken? He is an acquaintance of your Mo family’s former Family Head, Mo Yunchui," said Qianyuan Saint Heir, thinking Mo Zidong had heard wrong and spoke out again.

Upon hearing this, Mo Zidong broke out in a cold sweat and said sternly, "Shut up!"

Others might not know how terrifying Ye Xuan was, but he knew all too well.

Because his grandfather was one of the Elders under Mo Yunchui.

Although he didn’t know everything that had happened yesterday in Mo Family Divine City, he knew that Mo Yunchui’s return to the position of Family Head and all the changes that had ensued were all because of the young man before him.

He still remembered his own grandfather’s warning. Upon meeting Mr. Ye, he was to show great respect, without the slightest hint of discourtesy!

That was precisely why Mo Zidong held such reverence for Ye Xuan.

"These two have quite the foul mouths," Ye Xuan commented indifferently.

Instantly realizing what was implied, Mo Zidong stood up straight, faced the Qianyuan Saint Heir and Fierce Battle Saint Heir, and said coldly, "Your presence is not welcome here, people of Qianyuan Cave Heaven and Fierce Battle Sect. You have three seconds to disappear from Yingchun Pavilion; otherwise, tomorrow my Mo family’s iron cavalry will be seen at your Fierce Battle Sect and Qianyuan Cave Heaven!"

With these words, the entire room was shocked.

What’s the meaning of this?!

Was Mo Zidong actually threatening the Qianyuan Saint Heir and Fierce Battle Saint Heir to leave because of a single comment from Ye Xuan? He even openly threatened both of them?!

The Mo family iron cavalry represented a formidable force at the disposal of the Mo family, said to have hooves that could cause mountains and rivers to collapse wherever they trod.

If the Mo family’s iron cavalry were indeed dispatched, the Qianyuan Cave Heaven and Fierce Battle Sect would probably be trampled to the ground overnight!

At this, the Qianyuan Saint Heir and Fierce Battle Saint Heir’s complexions changed.

"Brother Mo..." the Qianyuan Saint Heir still wanted to say something.

"Get out!" Mo Zidong’s sharp brows exuded a fierce air, and his cold eyes flashed with killing intent.

Upon hearing this, the Qianyuan Saint Heir and Fierce Battle Saint Heir shuddered.

Both turned to stare at Ye Xuan, who kept his hands in his pockets the whole time, maintaining a spectator’s attitude, their eyes gradually filled with resentment.

"Ye Xuan! We’ll remember you!"

After leaving these words behind, they took their Heavenly Pride disciples from the Qianyuan Cave Heaven and Fierce Battle Sect and left in a sorry state.

Three seconds later, all the Heavenly Pride disciples of Qianyuan Cave Heaven and Fierce Battle Sect had vanished without a trace.

"What’s going on?"

The people of Red Sparrow Institute, who had been waiting to enjoy the show, were also utterly astonished.

Surely the turn of events was too abrupt?

Could it be that Ye Xuan really had been won over by Mo Yunli?

Even so, it shouldn’t be the case, should it?

"I have been neglectful, Mr. Ye, please punish me as you see fit," said Mo Zidong, immediately apologizing to Ye Xuan after Qianyuan Saint Heir and Fierce Battle Saint Heir had left.

Ye Xuan waved his hand dismissively and said, "It’s fine. After all, you didn’t know beforehand that I would come."

He had come to Yingchun Pavilion because Mo Qinglian had suddenly sought him out.

In truth, Ye Xuan wouldn’t have shown himself today under normal circumstances.

After all, such a scene was hardly worth Ye Xuan’s personal appearance.

So, Mo Zidong also didn’t know that Ye Xuan would be there.

"Yes, Mr. Ye!" Seeing that Ye Xuan was not angry, Mo Zidong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This scene made the surrounding prodigies wear strange expressions.

Who exactly is this guy that he commands such respect from Mo Zidong?

That’s a bit too much reverence.

He doesn’t seem that old either.

It’s truly incomprehensible.

"Brother Zidong," said Mo Qinglian as the incident seemed to be over and she finally felt comfortable greeting Mo Zidong.

"Miss," responded Mo Zidong with a slight smile, bowing respectfully to Mo Qinglian.

The crowd was even more bewildered upon hearing this.

Since when did the Mo family have a Miss?

"She is the Miss?" The Mo family prodigy beside them felt a tremor in his heart and quickly followed suit in bowing as he said:

"Paying respects to the Miss!"

"Greetings, Miss,"

Many other young elites of the Mo family also stepped forward to offer their respects, Mo Xiangyu was no exception.

That scene surprised many even more.

Since when did the Mo family have a Miss?

Mo Qinglian was quick to respond, "Elder brothers and sisters, there is no need for such courtesy."

Upon hearing this, everyone straightened up, looking at Mo Qinglian and the figure of Ye Xuan standing behind her with a certain reverence.

In fact, many of them were seeing Mo Qinglian and Ye Xuan for the first time.

But they all knew more or less about yesterday’s events.

Because of this, they were so respectful.

Whether it was Mo Qinglian or Ye Xuan, both were individuals they couldn’t afford to provoke.

"Let me introduce to the fellow Daoists, this is our Mo family’s current young lady—Mo Qinglian," Mo Zidong also took the initiative to introduce her to the various young elites from the East Desolation Domain gathered in the inner courtyard.

"Greetings to the fellow Daoists," Mo Qinglian said, bowing politely.

"Greetings, Miss Mo," everyone replied in kind.

"Mo Qinglian, isn’t she the one supposed to marry Mo Chenliang?" someone muttered covertly.

They had also heard about it; Mo Chenliang, the leading figure among the Mo family’s younger generation, was supposed to get married tomorrow.

And the person marrying Mo Chenliang was indeed Mo Qinglian.

"Could it be that Mo Chenliang doesn’t want to show up today and let his bride-to-be appear on his behalf?"

Many speculated in their hearts.

Although they speculated endlessly, no one voiced their thoughts openly.

After learning the identity of Mo Qinglian, nobody dared to approach and strike up a conversation with her, not even the elites from top-tier forces.

After all, everyone tacitly acknowledged that Mo Qinglian was Mo Chenliang’s fiancée.

Who would dare to offend her?

Mo Chenliang, the true leader of the Mo family’s young generation, was just twenty-three years old but had already stepped into the Longevity Realm.

Such an achievement was very rare in the entire East Desolate.

However, no one knew that the Mo Chenliang they revered had already been slapped to death by Ye Xuan.

The arrival of Mo Qinglian and Ye Xuan made the gathering of elites even more lively.

It seemed the crowd had found yet another topic of conversation.

"Has the young master arrived..."

Ye Lingyi mumbled to himself in secret, his eyes lighting up, but he did not rush over immediately as the occasion was different now.

The Ye family had an internal order: everything regarding Ye Xuan was not to be publicly disclosed.

Even he, the Ye family’s exceptional talent, could not defy the family orders.

Even more so, the command came from the tenth ancestor...

However, why was the young master together with the Miss of the Mo family?

Ye Lingyi pondered thoughtfully.

"Ye brother, let’s continue drinking!" Mo Zidong urged Ye Lingyi to carry on drinking merrily.

"Cheers!" Ye Lingyi laughed heartily, making no move to inquire about Ye Xuan.

Elsewhere.

After Mo Xiangyu returned to his seat, his face was pale, and he sat in silence, head hanging down.

Li Jichuan, who was nearby, watched this scene and after pausing his gaze on Ye Xuan for a while, looked away and spoke softly, "Brother Mo, the person you went to greet yesterday, was it this Mr. Ye?"

Mo Xiangyu’s body shuddered violently, and he abruptly raised his head to look at Li Jichuan with a somewhat hoarse voice, "Brother Li, considering you’re a wise man, take my advice—some matters are better left unasked."

Li Jichuan narrowed his eyes slightly, swirling his wine glass, and with a smile, he said, "Brother Mo, let’s not talk about these things and just drink."

"Yes," Mo Xiangyu collected himself, his hand trembling slightly as he poured a cup of wine, toasted with Li Jichuan, and drank it down in one gulp.

Li Jichuan kept an eye on every subtle motion of Mo Xiangyu, and he understood clearly.

Mo Xiangyu’s guest from yesterday must have been Ye Xuan!

And the capabilities of this Ye Xuan seemed to be much greater than they appeared.

To make Mo Zidong, a prodigy of the Mo family’s younger generation, so fearful was surely no ordinary individual!

Another point was Mo Xiangyu’s demeanor—despite his best efforts to conceal it, Li Jichuan knew that Mo Xiangyu had been dealt a blow he found hard to accept.

What kind of blow could it be?

Li Jichuan could only guess, but it was certainly a significant matter.

It might even burst out during the upcoming Mo family head succession ceremony.

Li Jichuan was growing more anticipative, once again casting his gaze towards Ye Xuan.

But Ye Xuan had already left his original spot.

Apart from Li Jichuan, many others were paying attention to Ye Xuan.

Members from the Red Sparrow Institute like Ruan Mengyue, the entourage from Divine Dragon Azure Sea led by Long Aotian, individuals from the Heavenly Martial Divine Sect of Nine Dragons Valley like Tian Xingning, were all keeping an eye on Ye Xuan...

However, to Ye Xuan, all of this did not matter. He walked at an unhurried pace towards a certain direction.
