The night in Yancheng is quiet. The moonlight shines on the bluestone road, like a flowing stream, peaceful and clear.

"Elder, this Qinglin was originally a maid, but now, for some reason, the entire Mo Tie Mercenary Group seems to be protecting this little girl. I don't know why."

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Mo Cheng frowned slightly.

The middle-aged man was extremely handsome, with thin, slightly pursed lips and a harmless smile on his face. However, today, that smile was like that of a venomous snake, carrying a hint of coldness.

On the middle-aged man's back, there was a black tattoo that covered his entire back.

It was a black monster.

It has the body of a sheep and the face of a human, with the human face located on its chest and abdomen. A gaping maw extends from its left armpit to its right armpit, and the black hair curled on its four hooves resembles four black auspicious clouds. Just one glance at it can make people feel the fear from hell.

The middle-aged man's back was covered with a whole piece of animal hide, and the energy of that demonic beast was all sealed in the hideous tattoos covering his back.

Mo Cheng never expected that the treasure discovered by their Mo family seemed to have been discovered by someone else as well.

Did I not expect it to come to this?

Mo Cheng originally planned to take Qing Lin away quietly, but now it seems that's no longer possible.

If they could take Qinglin away quietly, the Mo family could rise to power without bloodshed and without attracting the attention of the Yunlan Sect. However, if they were to openly rob them, although a small mercenary group certainly couldn't stop them, causing a significant disturbance would be troublesome.

"Why would the Mo Tie Mercenary Group suddenly start protecting her? According to previous investigations, wasn't she always working as a maid in the Mo Tie Mercenary Group? Why are they suddenly taking her so seriously?" Mo Cheng felt that there seemed to be another hidden reason behind this.

If the other side discovers Qinglin's secret, they might even send experts to protect that little girl.

It must be said that the Mo family's intelligence work was very detailed and meticulous. The middle-aged man clasped his hands slightly and said again, "It is said that a few days ago, a young master suddenly appeared in the Mo Tie Mercenary Group. This young master saved Xiao Ding, the leader of the Mo Tie Mercenary Group, in the desert. Later, it was discovered that the master seemed to have an old acquaintance with the Xiao family. It seems that it was the master who asked the Mo Tie Mercenary Group to protect Qing Lin."

master?

Mo Cheng's already furrowed brows deepened.

"What level is he roughly?" Mo Cheng asked the middle-aged man again.

"Hmm, he must be at least at the Dou Ling level. It is said that on the day of the Tagor Desert, a team led by a Grand Dou Master was wiped out by this young man in just a few breaths. This combat power is either at the peak of the Grand Dou Master or the Dou Ling level. Judging from the information we have so far, it is more likely to be the Dou Ling level."

Fighting spirits?
Mo Cheng breathed a slight sigh of relief. Fortunately, the situation was still under control in the battle of spirits.

Mo Cheng took a deep breath and clenched his fists. "No matter what, this little girl is a treasure to me and to our Mo family. We must get our hands on her. That's the Azure Serpent Three-Flower Pupil, something that can truly propel our Mo family to new heights. Everyone says our Mo family is a dog of the Yunlan Sect, and the worst part is, I can't refute it. Once we obtain the Azure Serpent Three-Flower Pupil, we won't just be dependent on the Yunlan Sect anymore; we might even be able to stand on equal footing with them." (End of Chapter)
