Transcending the Nine Heavens

CHAPTER: The Matter My Brother Did, Who Will Bear It?!

When Rui Butong arrived at the Mo Family, he was not alone. He came with his two masters.

Compared to the previous visitors, Rui Butong's arrival was taken much more seriously by the Mo Family.

The earlier guests were all family members, which meant they couldn't be swayed. But Rui Butong's identity was different; he and his two masters were both free individuals!

They did not belong to any family!

Such individuals, with such strength, were precisely the kind of recruits that the prestigious families of Central Three Heavens dreamt of. Moreover, even if they couldn't recruit someone like a thief, building a good relationship could help their own family avoid many inexplicable losses...

Thus, the Mo Family displayed great enthusiasm for the arrival of Rui Butong and his masters.

Several elders and the patriarch personally welcomed them, giving them ample respect, creating a harmonious atmosphere.

However, when they heard that Rui Butong had come specifically to visit Mo Qingwu, Mo Xingchen and several elders were left speechless.

What was going on? Why was there such a continuous stream of visitors?

Not only was the Mo Family surprised, but even Rui Butong's masters, who were notorious thieves, were taken aback: they had never seen this disciple take an interest in any girl before! Why did he have to visit the Mo Family to see their young lady this time?

Could it be that little Rui has taken a liking to the girl?

The two elderly men came with the mindset of seeing their disciple's potential bride. A large group of them proceeded to Mo Qingwu's small courtyard.

As soon as Mo Qingwu emerged, Rui Butong jumped over with a grin, chattering excitedly with her.

The most surprised were not the Mo Family members, but the two notorious thieves who caused headaches throughout Central Three Heavens!

The two looked at each other and noticed the other's nose crinkled in disbelief.

They had expected a breathtaking beauty, but instead found a little loli who hadn't even started to mature…

From the looks of it, this was definitely not a romantic interest... The two old men were deflated.

The elders of the Mo Family sat with the thieves, watching Rui Butong talk to Mo Qingwu. Feeling uncomfortable, Mo Qingwu pulled Rui Butong into the room.

Just as they stood up, Mo Qingwu's head trembled slightly, a red glow flickered, and starlight sparkled.

Mo Wuxin suddenly felt a jolt. He focused on the butterfly knot on Mo Qingwu's head and was stunned.

He was sure he wasn't mistaken; the exquisitely crafted butterfly knot was definitely made from Crimson Cloud Steel and Star Iron. It was the same material as the Star Dream Light Dance Blade!

Just cutting a piece of Crimson Cloud Steel required the all-out effort of an imperial level expert; who could be so extravagant as to make a butterfly knot from Crimson Cloud Steel?

Thin as a cicada's wing, light as a feather, so delicate and masterfully crafted...

Even a lord-level expert would probably struggle to achieve this, right?

After Rui Butong and his masters left, Mo Wuxin called Mo Qingwu over alone: “Xiao Wu, who gave you the butterfly knot on your head?”

“Brother Ji Mo gave it to me,” Mo Qingwu blinked and replied coldly.

“Nonsense!” Mo Wuxin exclaimed angrily. Ji Mo? Ji Family? Everyone knew how significant the Ji Family was as a marriage alliance!

Could the Ji Family have made such a butterfly knot? What a joke!

“Really, Brother Ji Mo came to see me last time,” Mo Qingwu defended herself. She was careful: Brother Ji Mo brought it; as for who actually gave it... I won't tell you!

“It seems you don’t want to tell the truth to me?” Mo Wuxin said angrily.

“Really, really it was…”

“Humph!” Mo Wuxin waved his sleeve and left. He didn’t want to force a small girl; with his status, he couldn’t do such a thing. However, this butterfly knot was definitely not given by Ji Mo!

This, everyone in the Mo Family could be sure of!

If the Ji Family truly had such experts, they would have charged into Upper Three Heavens long ago…
