CHAPTER 48: Reunion!
Mo Tianji pondered for a moment before decisively saying, “Alright!” Now that the family was in crisis, Mo Tianyun had mortgaged a considerable portion of their assets; if Mo Tianyun won, he would have to take action immediately to eliminate him. Otherwise, if Mo Tianyun leveraged his substantial financial resources to gain power and oppose him, he would find himself in a difficult position.
If Mo Tianyun lost, it would be a golden opportunity for him!
“I will settle accounts with your Mo Family sooner or later!” Chu Yang said coldly as he looked at Mo Tianji, his voice dark and somber. “If Xiao Wu is well and favored, I wouldn’t care about anything. But since your Mo Family treats her this way, I might as well tell you, whoever holds the power in the future, be it you or Mo Tianyun, I will demand every bit of what you owe Xiao Wu back from you!”
“If I, Chu Yang, do not wish it, there is no one in the Nine Heavens who can take advantage of me without paying the price!” Chu Yang declared heavily.
After saying this, without waiting for Mo Tianji's response, he strode out, saying, “I’m going to find Young Master Wei.”
“I’ll go with you.” Mo Tianji, flustered, followed him. He had never been scolded so disgracefully before, yet he could only swallow his anger. After all, his family was being so pathetic and ungrateful.
“You few don’t need to go, focus on your training. Tomorrow’s battle cannot afford any mistakes!” Chu Yang said to Gu Duxing and the others who had followed.
Gu Duxing nodded and took his brothers back to continue practicing.
“Brother Chu, why are you so good to my sister?” Mo Tianji realized that Chu Yang cared for Mo Qingwu much more than he, as her brother, did.
“I really like Qingwu.” Chu Yang replied vaguely.
“But liking her... seems a bit too much...” Mo Tianji muttered in his heart, though he naturally wouldn’t dare to say it out loud.
Of course, Chu Yang wouldn’t dare to let him know that he liked his sister because he wanted to wait until she was grown up to marry her... Otherwise, Mo Tianji would probably fight him on the spot! — Just like Dreamfall...
“Don’t worry, if I gain control of the Mo Family, I will clean up the family’s bad influences bit by bit!” Mo Tianji sighed and said.
“Brother Mo, there’s something I don’t know if I should say or not?” Chu Yang quickened his pace as he spoke.
“Please, go ahead.”
“Focusing solely on one family is a bit limited; moreover... it’s not enough for expansion.” Chu Yang said carefully.
“I know this all too well...” Mo Tianji sighed deeply. “Am I really fighting for the patriarch position against Mo Tianyun? It’s because I have deep feelings for the family! I can't bear to see it fall into Mo Tianyun’s hands. He is narrow-minded and ruthless, willing to go to any lengths for his goals; the Mo Family must not fall into his hands!”
He took a deep breath and said, “I want to lead the family into the Upper Three Heavens! To fulfill the wishes of our ancestors who have cherished them for generations!”
Chu Yang remained silent, quickening his pace, saying, “I wish you success.”
The two rushed ahead and soon arrived at the place where Young Master Wei was.
“Brother Wei, Chu Yang has come to visit. Please come out to see me!” Chu Yang called loudly, his voice echoing.
Inside, Mo Qingwu jumped up with a start, dancing in mid-air: “It’s Brother Chu Yang!” This voice appeared almost every night in her dreams, gently comforting her: Xiao Wu, don’t be afraid; Xiao Wu, I’m here; Xiao Wu...
Now she finally heard it for real!
Mo Qingwu cheered and jumped up, but suddenly froze, her little ears perked up as she listened nervously outside. Suddenly, she grabbed Jun Luolu’s hand and anxiously said, “Ah Lu, I didn’t mishear, right? Someone really called me? It’s really Brother Chu Yang’s voice, right? I wasn’t dreaming just now, was I...”
Jun Luolu held back her laughter and said, “I didn’t hear anything.”
