Chapter 167 Pointing Out Shortcomings

But before he could explain, Mo Yi didn't give him the time to explain, as if suddenly realizing something, he waved his hand dismissively.

Whoosh!

The more than ten experts he had recruited at a great cost no longer had any reservations and struck out at the same time.

Although these people only possessed cultivation around Galaxy 2-dan, when they attacked all at once, their auras came together and the power immediately doubled. Even Mo Baiye at Galaxy 5-dan Peak couldn't withstand it and kept retreating step by step.

"Damn it..."

Mo Baiye's face turned green with rage.

He had thought that by escaping home, the opponent would definitely not dare to come over, and even if they did, it would be like a sheep entering the tiger's den. He had never dreamt that... he would become the sheep, and the thugs he had spent countless resources to support had all turned into executioners wanting to kill him...

What sins had he committed!

Knowing that at this moment, convincing Mo Yi that he was real was more important than using all his strength to kill, Mo Baiye suppressed his anger and spoke again:

"Mo Yi, 27 years ago, I put you in charge of affairs within the residence. You were seduced by a woman and accepted bribes, which led to some of my training materials being adulterated. Fortunately, I was shrewd enough to avoid an accident, but I was still furious and wanted to drive you out. It was only after you knelt in front of my doorstep for three days that I calmed down. Have you forgotten this incident?"

"I, I haven't forgotten..."

Mo Yi's face turned pale.

He remembered this incident very clearly, as it was the closest he had come to death. Thankfully he had reacted quickly; otherwise, there would be no place for him in the Mo Residence.

"Mo Yi!"

While considering whether the person being attacked was really Mo Baiye, he heard the "old master" on the other side speak similarly: "17 years ago, you fell for a servant's daughter and promised her father a high profit to sell her to you. When he disagreed, you found an opportunity to send him away and colluded with bandits to slay him. Then, under the girl's pleading, you took the chance to annihilate the bandits, killing two birds with one stone... You did this very covertly, surely you didn't think I didn't know!"

"Ah, I, I..."

Mo Yi's body stiffened.

He had never told the old master about this matter and thought that only he himself knew. He never imagined that he still hadn't been able to hide it from the other party.

Looking at it like this, this one should be real.

Just as his mind was inclining in one direction, the "old master" with the severed arm called out again: "24 years ago, I was going to Ziqing Mountain to seek opportunities and left you in charge of the house. In order to pay off gambling debts, you sold my green lion sculpture and then bought a fake to put in its place. I never discovered it until three years later when I accidentally broke it and realized something was wrong. You pinned the blame on a new subordinate and struck him dead in front of me... This matter was very secretive, and indeed I was fooled at the beginning, but the only defect was that when you bought the fake, you actually bought it on credit, and the seller came looking..."

With his current situation being "seriously injured," if he chased too quickly, even the dumbest would see through the ruse. If that happened, the real Mo Baiye and the subordinates might turn on him together, and not only would he fail to save Liu Mingyue, but he wouldn't even know how he died.

"Yes..."

Mo Yi nodded and quickly gave commands, and the crowd pursued swiftly. Soon they all disappeared from sight.

"Old master, are you alright?"

After the crowd left, Mo Yi looked over cautiously.

The real and fake "old masters" had basically exposed everything about him. He truly feared the one before him would remember the discontent and slash him with a single stroke...

"Go down first. Since those things have already passed, I naturally won't pursue the matter anymore!"

Perceiving his thoughts, Zhang Xuan waved his hand.

"Thank you, old master..."

Only then did Mo Yi let out a sigh of relief and hurriedly exited the room.

Watching him leave, Zhang Xuan carefully examined the room before him.

When he had first come in, he had run into Mo Baiye and had not had the chance to look carefully. Now was a good time to look for sufficient training resources and the Destiny Plate.

After making a round of the room without finding anything like a hidden door, he walked toward the side hall that Mo Baiye had emerged from, which was a small bedroom, probably a place to rest temporarily when tired from practice.

The Eye of Insight activated, and after a careful look, the walls all around also revealed no hidden compartments. Shaking his head just as he was about to leave, his heart suddenly stirred, and his eyes fell on the small bed before him.

Since the Fu Family had something like the Ten Thousand Fox Well, this Mo Baiye, whose cultivation was not weaker than the Fu family patriarch, and whose status was even more prominent, had many enemies. It would be unbelievable if he hadn't kept some tricks up his sleeve.

"Heavenly Mandate Vitality..."

With that thought, tips of his fingers released streams of Mo Blade Destiny Essence Power around the bed, flowing nonstop.

Buzz!

As expected, as this power operated, slight glimmers of light immediately flashed around the bed.

He quickly approached and lifted the mattress, and indeed under it, he found a small pit.
