A deep voice, filled with affection, said: "Be good, don't look."
Then came the overwhelming pressure, so powerful that resistance seemed utterly ridiculous.
The man in the straw hat's attack was easily dispersed by an invisible force, as if it had never existed.
Two figures, one in black and one in white, emerged from somewhere in the forest.
The boy in white was held tightly in the arms of the handsome young man in black, one hand around his waist and the other covering his eyes. The boy in white pouted unhappily. The young man had a handsome and wicked face, and his every move exuded elegance and nobility. Yet, his gaze toward the boy in white was warm and doting.
"Why won't you let me see!" The white-robed youth, Qin Moyu, slapped his hand that was covering his eyes in displeasure. He had just thought of coming out as the "expert" to save the protagonist, but before he could even see what was happening, Shen Mo covered his eyes and even hugged him excessively.
This is to stop him from showing off!
Shen Mo glanced at the terrifying face of the man in the straw hat, realizing that Qin Moyu wouldn't want to see it. To comfort the person in his arms, he could only helplessly lower his head and whisper in his ear, "Trust me, Momo."
The hot breath hitting her earlobe instantly reminded Qin Moyu of the soul-to-soul collision just now, and she froze, pretending to be a block of wood.
Ugh! Why am I thinking about that again?!
Calm down! Calm down! Qin Moyu, you're an experienced driver! Don't be so shy!
Even so, Qin Moyu still felt like her head was steaming.
"May I ask what brings you here so suddenly?"
Staring at him by Shen Mo, the powerful pressure caused a bead of cold sweat to trickle down the man's forehead. He instantly snapped out of his anger and looked warily at the two who had suddenly appeared.
To be precise, it was Shen Mo who appeared.
This person is very strong! Extremely strong!
This was the only feeling the man in the straw hat had; he even felt that this person might be several times stronger than Zhou Donghan.
You have to understand that Zhou Donghan is a powerful cultivator at the Tribulation Transcending stage. For someone to feel that someone is stronger than Zhou Donghan... what kind of monster would that be?
"Looking for someone."
Shen Mo glanced at Nan Xun beside him, his meaning already quite clear.
"I see……"
The man in the straw hat twitched his lips, trying to appear harmless, but no matter how hard he tried, his face, disfigured by Zhou Donghan, only made him look more frightening than kind: "Since you've found him, I won't bother you any longer. We still have a mission to complete..."
"I've always found this strange."
Shen Mo suddenly interrupted the man in the straw hat, looking at him with great interest: "Where did Zhou Donghan's most loyal assassination team go? So they're here."
Anyone who knows a little about Yunqi Tower knows that in addition to his own formidable strength, the tower's leader, Zhou Donghan, also has an absolutely loyal and powerful assassination team that outsiders ridicule as being "more human-like than demon cultivators in human form." They are capable of doing the most heinous things, making them both frightening and hateful.
In order to better utilize Shen Mo's plan to "become emperor" and create bloodshed, Tiandao sent Zhou Donghan to get close to Shen Mo. In order to gain Shen Mo's trust, Zhou Donghan even gave him half of Yunqi Tower. Over the years, Shen Mo has almost taken control of Yunqi Tower, but this assassination team has never been able to infiltrate.
loyalty?
The man in the straw hat felt utterly ironic. He sneered inwardly, his eyes filled with barely suppressed hatred.
"At the same time, I've always been puzzled. With your abilities, how could you have been completely unknown before working for him, yet there was no trace of you? Now I understand."
Shen Mo chuckled lightly, but the smile didn't reach his eyes; instead, it was even colder.
"So, you are Yu Li, the eldest son of the Yu family who died long ago."
How could someone who is already dead in the eyes of the world be associated with this?
not to mention.
This person is actually Zhou Donghan's "enemy," the one whose entire family was slaughtered by her own hands.
Chapter Seventy-Three: The Sour-Lemon-like Shen Mo Settles Down...
Just like Fen Gong, who suddenly appeared out of nowhere and made a comeback, Zhou Donghan was also an unknown cultivator at the beginning. However, due to various reasons, he had a conflict with the Yu family, which was one of the top families in Xizhou at the time. He vowed to wipe out the Yu family in his lifetime. At the time, everyone took this as a joke. Unexpectedly, when Yunqi Tower rose up and wiped out the Yu family with extremely cruel and swift methods, everyone realized that the mysterious Yunqi Tower Master was actually Zhou Donghan, who had disappeared for a long time.
But no one can say for sure what deep-seated hatred or blood feud exists between the Yu family and Zhou Donghan.
After learning that Fen Gong and Zhou Donghan were people of the Heavenly Dao, Shen Mo began to investigate their past.
Although Fen Gong's various pursuits and escapes were overly dramatic, they could at least be logically explained. It was simply that those spoiled brats who relied on their powerful families had bullied Fen Gong, and for various reasons, they had to protect him, thus incurring Fen Gong's wrath, ultimately leading to their families being destroyed and their lives being lost.
Perhaps it was Fen Gong's success that made the Heavenly Dao gradually swell, leading it to make no attempt to conceal certain things when arranging Zhou Donghan's life. A little thought reveals that the Heavenly Dao was framing certain families or sects. Zhou Donghan himself was tyrannical and greedy, and regardless of the truth, he just wanted to find an excuse to satisfy his own desires. Therefore, during the period when Zhou Donghan rose to power, the number of sects and families destroyed by him was several times that of Fen Gong.
The feud between the Yu family and Zhou Donghan was simply because Yu Li and Zhou Donghan both coveted the same treasure, and in the end, the seller considered the Yu family's power and Yu Li's higher offer, so the item was sold to Yu Li.
This small incident caused Zhou Donghan to hold a grudge for more than a decade. In the end, he exposed the seller and burned him to the ground, and the Yu family was completely destroyed by fire.
The destruction of the Yu family made Yunqi Tower famous, and Yu Li disappeared completely in the fire. Everyone thought he was dead, but unexpectedly, he was controlled by Zhou Donghan by some unknown means and worked for his enemy for so long, which is really regrettable.
But no matter how much trouble Yu Li had, the things he did for Zhou Donghan made it impossible for anyone to feel sympathy for him.
Shen Mo was the same; he hadn't been able to find them before, but now that he had, he didn't mind eliminating Zhou Donghan's remaining influence.
How ironic that he can still hear his own name from other people after all this time.
Yu Li gave a bitter laugh: "Yu Li is already dead."
He saw Shen Mo's murderous intent and knew that he was no match for Shen Mo, but he was still unwilling to accept it.
Yu Li's hand gripping the sword hilt was trembling, but she still rushed towards Shen Mo.
