Chapter 16 Chapter Sixteen

In the spacious hall, the crowd was surging, extremely lively, filled with a festive atmosphere. On the specific seats placed in the hall, there are power leaders or representatives from the eastern provinces of the empire. For the most powerful power in the eastern part of the Jia Ma Empire, although many people wish that the Mohist family would collapse soon, this superficial effort , but still must be done extremely well. On the first seat on the high platform in the hall, a grey-haired old man in Chinese clothes was clasping his fists to the guests passing below him. Slightly mixed with some smug smiles, it never stopped.

The old man is the great elder of the Mo family, Mo Cheng, who is also a pillar of the Mo family. The current status of the Mo family is almost mostly due to him. "Sir Bor, the city lord of Yancheng, is here!" At the gate, a loud announcement sounded into the hall, making the noisy hall slightly quiet, and strange eyes swept towards the gate. Generally speaking, officials of the empire would not take the initiative to participate. The celebration of the local powers, but now the Lord of Yancheng came to celebrate in front of a large crowd. This behavior made everyone understand that the Mo family had already opened up all the joints in Yancheng.

With the official support and the Yunlan Sect as the backstage, it is no wonder that the Mo family has grown in strength in recent years, and there is a faint tendency to monopolize all the forces in the Northeast Province. "Hehe, Great Elder Mo Cheng, congratulations." At the gate, a group of people surrounded a middle-aged fat man in gorgeous clothes, and walked in with a smile on his face.He smiled affectionately at Mo Cheng on the stage. "Hehe, Master Boer. Please come here yourself, please." Smiling at this fat man who has made a lot of money from the Mo family over the years, a cold killing intent flashed in Mo Cheng's heart. But with a smile, he led him to the special seat on the high platform aside.

After a few laughs with the Yancheng city lord.At the door, there was another loud announcement. "Master Ye Cong, the Patriarch of the Ye Family, is here!" Hearing the name, Mo Cheng was taken aback for a moment, and then a half-smile expression appeared on his face. This Ye family is one of the other three major families in the Northeast Province. Although the power is not as good as the prosperous Mo family, it has been established for many years. accumulation.It also made the Ye family's strength not to be underestimated, and made Mo Cheng show such an expression.Naturally, it was because the head of the Ye family came to congratulate in person. According to normal circumstances, the relationship between the four major families in the Northeast is in a tense situation. It is absolutely impossible to congratulate each other. But now the Ye family is a bit unexpected The attitude of the Ye family obviously implied a hint of ingratiating and submissiveness. Obviously, as the strength of the Mo family rose sharply, the Ye family's intention to be hostile to it has also shaken a lot.

"Haha, Mr. Mo Cheng. You are really growing old and strong. The land in the Northeast is about to be completely eaten by the old man." A middle-aged man with a thin face laughed and walked into the hall, facing Mo Cheng on the stage. laughed. "Hehe, I didn't expect Patriarch Ye Cong to come here too. I'm really honored." Mo Cheng said with a smile, chatted with Ye Cong with a smile on his face, and then greeted him to the high position. Next, a large number of leaders of factions with high status in the northeastern provinces of the Jia Ma Empire came one after another. For a while, nearly seventy-eight out of ten forces from the northeastern provinces gathered in this lively hall. It was truly a rare event.

Looking at the hall full of distinguished guests, the smile on Mo Cheng's face became stronger and stronger. In the northeastern provinces, there is no other family that can have such appeal except for his Mo family. . The smile on Mo Cheng's face finally bloomed like a chrysanthemum after hearing the last announcement, he stepped off the stage himself, and then walked quickly towards the gate. As the focus of the audience, Mo Cheng's actions naturally attracted everyone's attention. Seeing that he went out to greet him in person, he was a little stunned at the moment, and couldn't help whispering in a low voice. It seems that there are not many people who are treated so eagerly by the elders of the Demo family.

At the gate, a group of people came in clusters. At the head of the crowd, a woman in a moonlight dress walked slowly through the gate with small steps. There was a faint smile on her beautiful face, and there were occasional smiles around her. Those who recognized his identity couldn't help but be surprised. "Haha, niece Nalan, I didn't expect you to come here in person today. It really makes my Mo family flourish." Looking at the young woman in the moon robe, Mo Cheng smiled even wider, and leaned forward, The address was extremely affectionate and laughed. "It turned out to be Nalan Yanran, the direct disciple of the lord of the Misty Cloud Sect? Hey, no wonder Mo Cheng is so excited."

"This old guy, I don't know how long I'll be showing off about it in the future." "Sigh, it seems that the Yunlan Sect is really paying more and more attention to this Mo family. This time, even the future Yunlan Sect Master rushed over." After recognizing the identity of the beautiful woman in the moon robe, everyone in the hall suddenly sighed secretly with envy on their faces. In the hearts of these middle and lower powers, the Yunlanzong, a giant standing at the peak of the Jia Ma Empire, Undoubtedly, it is like an unattainable mountain, extremely oppressive, and the Mohist's ability to connect with them has made many people's eyes turn red with envy.

"Elder Mo Cheng is too polite, Yan Ran is just following the teacher's orders." Nalan Yanran glanced around the hall, looking at the leaders of the forces that almost covered nearly seven or eight of the eastern provinces, deep in her beautiful eyes After a flash of surprise and some inexplicable meaning, he lowered his head and smiled reservedly. "Hehe, niece Nalan, Elder Ge Ye, please!" Laughing loudly at Nalan Yanran and Ge Ye behind him, Mo Cheng turned around and personally led the way, leading them all the way to the top. The two sat down next to each other, laughing and chatting with them constantly.

In the bustling hall, one after another veiled eyes kept sweeping over Nalan Yanran's delicate body. This legendary woman who could become the future master of the Misty Cloud Sect had undoubtedly become the focus of the hall. On the other side, Ye Cong, the Patriarch of the Ye Family, looked enviously at Mo Cheng, who had an intimate and laughing conversation with Nalan Yanran.After a while, he sighed helplessly in his heart.With a mouth full of bitterness, although he wanted to have the cheek to get close to the future master of the Yunlan Sect, but after weighing the status and identities of the two parties, he could only shake his head with a wry smile, and picked up the teacup beside him.He poured it down hard, thinking in his heart whether he should cooperate with the Mo family sooner.In case he is suddenly taken by the roots of the Mo family whose strength has skyrocketed in the future.

When everyone in the hall had different thoughts, on the top floor, two figures in black robes appeared strangely, with their feet firmly on the beam.His eyes swept across the hall, and after pausing on Nalan Yanran for a while, he turned to Mo Cheng who was beside him... "Then it should be the great elder of the Mo family, Mo Cheng who is known as Mo Zimo?" Xiao Yan said indifferently as he glanced at the thin old man with a smile on his face. "En." Hai Bodong nodded slightly, turned his head to look at Xiao Yan, and said, "What are you going to do next?" "Smash the field... According to what you said, first beat the old bastard to serious injuries, and then let them hand over. For the Mo family, Mo Cheng is almost an unfallible pillar. So, I think his Life should be worth something." Xiao Yan put his palms in his sleeves, stared at Mo Cheng closely like a poisonous snake, and said coldly. "What an unlucky old guy, unexpectedly met the evil star Xiao Yan on this day." Hearing this, Hai Bodong nodded and mourned for a few seconds in his heart for the proud Mo Cheng below. In the hall, Mo Cheng finally stopped talking, stood up slowly, looked around the various forces in the hall, smiled and pressed his hands, and suddenly, the noisy atmosphere gradually became quiet After coming down, one after another, their gazes shifted over. "Hehe, thank you all very much for coming to my old bone's banquet. It must have been clearly stated in your invitations. There is mainly one important matter I want to discuss with you at this gathering." Seeing the atmosphere Gradually calming down, Mo Cheng smiled. Hearing Mo Cheng's words, everyone in the hall immediately pricked up their ears. "Recently, our Mohist family has been discussing and planning to establish a Mohist League... This Mohist League is not a strict organization, but just wants to gather some friendly forces together, and then work together to obtain some benefits that are extremely beneficial to both parties. After all, one person The power of the Mo family is far inferior to the power of several families... And here I promise that as long as you join the Mohist League, you will be an ally of the Mohist family and have the privileges of enjoying Mohist intelligence and military assistance... What do you think? If so If you are interested in this Mo League, you might as well cooperate together." Mo Cheng said with a smile. Hearing Mo Cheng's words, the faces of everyone in the hall were different. Although Mo Cheng said that it was not a strict organization, they all knew that once they joined the so-called Mo League, it would be equivalent to being banned. Marked with the Mohist logo, although it may be possible to get the protection of the Mohist in the future, but this is indirectly equivalent to being incorporated by the Mohist. There was a brief silence in the hall. After a long while, there were finally some small and weak forces one after another, saying that they were willing to join the Mo League. Many of them had already made up their minds. To take refuge in the Mohists. With people at the beginning, some medium-sized forces who were afraid of the Mohists and were afraid of being blacklisted by them, after hesitating for a while, many people also chose to join. Sitting on the first seat, looking at the forces that are constantly pouring towards the Mo family, Nalan Yanran frowned imperceptibly, turned her head slightly, and looked at Ge Ye with an inexplicable look in her eyes. mean. Looking at those forces who chose to join with a smile on his face, although there are not many people now, Mo Cheng is not in a hurry. This is just his preliminary plan. As long as the Mo family starts to show its strength in the future, he believes that these people present will , should know how to choose. Smiling a little smugly in his heart, Mo Cheng said with a smile: "Although the Mo League is quite loose, it still needs someone to control it for the time being..." "Naturally, it is most suitable for Elder Mo Cheng to take charge." Before Mo Cheng finished speaking, there was a sound of flattering in the hall, and a large group of voices echoed it. "Hehe, thanks to everyone's love, the old man is not respectful. Let me take care of the Mo League for now." Ignoring other people's objections, Mo Cheng waved his palm and made the decision like this . Looking at Mo Cheng who was almost writing and directing himself, some people in the hall were really speechless. Isn't this old guy too thick-skinned? "I'm sorry, Elder Mo, I think, the controller of the Mo League, you seem to have no time to manage it for the time being..." In the quiet hall, a faint voice suddenly sounded inappropriately. A black robe flashed strangely to the center of the hall. Under the black robe, a pair of gloomy eyes glanced at Mo Cheng on the high platform with a suddenly gloomy expression. .
