Chapter 68: In front of the Mo Mansion

When Mo Juren was in charge of Jingjiao Club, he often clashed with Duba Villa, and he won more than he lost, and dominated the game for a time.

Therefore, Mo Juren didn't take them seriously at all, but instead took the other Five Colors Sect seriously, which was hidden very deeply.

Thinking of this, Mo Juren asked again,
"Besides dominating the villa, what else is the Five Colors Sect doing?"

Through understanding from Qixuan Sect and Yu Zitong and others, it was found that this sect, which has always been low-key but has the longest heritage, is most likely supported by immortal cultivators. We can no longer ignore their existence as before.

The fifth lady replied,
"The Five Color Sect has been quiet. They have neither taken the opportunity to seize power nor have they been willing to join forces with our two sects. Their sphere of influence is no different from what it was ten years ago."

"Well, they can stand firm in Lanzhou, so they must have some outstanding qualities. Compared to dominating the villa, the Five Colors Sect may be the biggest rival of my Jingjiao Society."

But as long as you are willing, you can slowly explore these things in the future.

Next, after a careful discussion with Mo Juren, the Fifth Lady summoned the leaders of the Dark Rudder and ordered them to stop looking for the mysterious man from yesterday, let the matter go, and issued new orders.

Mo Juren asked the Fifth Lady to release the power of the Dark Rudder and secretly search for all traces of immortal cultivators within the scope of Jiayuan City. He recorded all the extraordinary things such as immortal anecdotes, famous people in the mountains and wilds, secret caves, gods, demons, birds, beasts, fish and insects, etc., and collected them in a book for his future search.

With the intelligence about the entire Jingjiao Society and Jiayuan City from the Fifth Madam and An Duo, there is a clearer plan for the future of the Mo Mansion.

Mo Juren planned to go to Jiayuan City and let the Jingjiao Society re-establish its position. Then he would find out the villain who murdered him. After settling the grudge of the past, the ladies would still maintain the existence of the Jingjiao Society.

He himself planned to act as a backstage figure, and choose a precious place near Jiayuan City to build a hut and live there. He would usually seek out immortals and make friends, practice Taoism, and become a free and easy cultivator.

In addition, in order to investigate the assassination of him that year, his true identity as Mo Juren was temporarily decided to be known only by the Fifth Lady.

After everything is dealt with and there are no more threats, I will find an opportunity to tell the other ladies the truth.

To the outside world, he planned to first pretend to be a follower of Mo Juren and openly help Jingjiao Society deal with the current situation.

After the discussion was complete, Mo Juren secretly left the manor alone and headed directly for Jiayuan City. Except for the Fifth Madam, no one in the manor knew he had been there.

Not long after, "Zhang Tie", wearing green tights, with a strong but unprepossessing appearance, appeared in Jiayuan City.

Although Jiayuan City is not the capital of Lanzhou, it is located on a major transportation route, with convenient transportation by land and water. It is crowded with merchants, has many shops, and has a large population. It is the most important city in the southern part of Yue State.

At its peak, the entire Jiayuan City was controlled by the Jingjiao Society. All the sects and forces in the city submitted to it. Everyone respected the Jingjiao Society and were proud to wear the Jingjiao Society's uniforms.

The name of the former leader of the Jingjiao Society, "Ghost Hand" Mo Juren, was like the king of this city, and the mere mention of it was enough to move people.

It is precisely because of Mo Juren's great reputation that the entire Jingjiao Club has been managed well over the years with the joint efforts of his four wives, and has been able to survive for ten years.

However, after Mo Juren retired, the gang no longer had the military force to suppress the rebellion, and the fear of the people in Jiayuan City towards the "Ghost Hand" Mo Juren gradually disappeared over time. This led to the Jingjiao Society's territory being slowly eroded and divided up, resulting in the loss of a lot of territory.

Now he returned to the city, entered from the north gate, and headed south, but found that the power of the Jingjiao Society had almost disappeared. Instead, the gangs of various small sects were showing off their power in the city. Fights could be seen everywhere, and the citizens suffered a lot. It was far from the orderly situation when he left. This group of incompetent people simply brought shame to Jiayuan City.

As Mo Juren traveled along the way, he decided to reorganize Jiayuan City and let these villains experience the power of Jingjiao Society.

On Nanling Street, the most prosperous street in the south of the city, there is a three-story Xiangjia Restaurant.

This restaurant has a very grand facade and is large in scale. Although it may not be the best, it is one of the best in the whole Jiayuan City. In particular, its signature dish "Thyme" is a well-known good wine, which has attracted many customers who come here for its reputation.

Mo Juren occupied a table by the window on the second floor, ordered a pot of wine and two side dishes, and while drinking by himself he observed the other side of the street.

It was a huge mansion covering several acres of land, occupying almost the entire north side of Nanling Street. The vermilion gate was magnificent, and the two black lacquered doors were inlaid with exquisite bronze lions holding rings. Eight strong men from the Jingjiao Society were guarding the doors.

This is Mo Juren’s home - the Mo Mansion, and it still looks the same as he is familiar with.

However, the situation in front of the Mo Mansion was not peaceful at the moment. There was a busy scene with cars and people coming and going. Many people gathered there but did not want to enter the mansion. Instead, they seemed to be waiting for something.

After a long time, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the street, coming from far away and becoming clearer and clearer.

A young man with sharp eyebrows, bright eyes and a slender figure came galloping towards them, riding a majestic white horse.

He is dressed in fine clothes and rides a fast horse, full of vigor and vitality.

The man walked straight to the front of Mo's house and then jumped off his horse with a beautiful move, which drew cheers from the onlookers.

The young man looked around and there seemed to be several familiar gazes in the crowd, but they all remained silent tacitly, blending in with the crowd, waiting for the young man's performance.

The young man then took out a letter and a token from his horse bag, stood in front of the gate of the Mo Mansion, and shouted,

"Disciple Wu Jianming is the last disciple of our respected master Mo Juren. Today, I have come to the Mo Mansion with Master Mo's token and handwritten letter to announce the news. I hope all the wives and sisters of the Mo Mansion will be willing to meet you!"

When he spoke, he used the secret technique of true Qi to help, and the sound was as loud as thunder, rolling out. I'm afraid that the whole Mo Mansion could hear it. This also shows that this guy who calls himself Wu Jianming has an extraordinary martial arts skill.

Mo Juren himself was far away in the Xiang Family Restaurant, and he also heard the shameless screams of this guy, and could not help but frown.

Duba Villa secretly gathered together many powerful gangs in the city, intending to use both soft and hard tactics to eliminate Jingjiao Society in one fell swoop.

However, each family was afraid that the Jingjiao Society had a secret power, and they were also afraid that they would not be able to withstand the final counterattack from the Mo family, so they planned to use clever tactics to weaken the Jingjiao Society from within.

This was part of their plan. They first sent this person to blatantly pretend to be his own disciple, in an attempt to sneak into the Mo Mansion!

Mo Juren snorted inwardly. Fortunately, he was here today. If he hadn't come across this incident, he would have to see how far these people would go in the end!
The Mo Mansion hadn't even opened its doors yet, but the crowd watching here, under the guidance of someone with ulterior motives, had already started to make a commotion...
