Without waiting for Ling Yun's answer, he continued: "You, although I was the one who paid for it, those people only remember you and are deeply grateful to you!"

Ling Yun shot a glance at him, and seeing that his face was filled with dissatisfaction, he chuckled: "Really? Then why don't you come with me this time? "

Mo Xin hurriedly shook his head and snorted, "I don't have that time. Forget it, I don't care about those gold coins.

However, you must try your best to help me acquire some properties in the Misty Cloud Tower! "

"Alright, it's a deal!" Cloud Mist Tower was his to begin with. He only needed to give instructions on this matter.

In the eyes of others, he and that bastard Wen Shang were just shareholders in the Misty Cloud Tower, so he didn't dare to show it too clearly.

Even though Mo Xin was a popinjay, his business mind was extremely sharp.

These few years, he had already taken over a lot of Mo Clan's businesses. Not only did they not lose any business, they even gained a lot of benefits for the Mo Clan.

Suppressing the sound of internal conflict within the Mo Clan, using his abilities to prove that he had the ability to inherit the Mo Clan's property.

If not for the fact that he controlled so much of the Mo Clan's property and could collect a few profits from it, he wouldn't have been able to spend so much money like water.

Even a few of the properties owned by the Cloud Mist Tower had been transferred to him, giving him a share according to the profits.

"Will there be a problem? I heard that Wen Shang often disagrees with you in the Cloud Mist Tower. " Mo Xin frowned and asked.

Lingyun gave a faint smile and said without a care: "Wen Shang doesn't have the ability to interfere with the internal decisions of Cloud Mist Tower.

If one did not contribute, no matter how capable Wen Shang was, it would be useless no matter how extravagant his words were.

Not long ago, Protector Nan sent me a message saying that your performance was quite good.

Therefore, everything depends on you! "

Below the Tower Lord was the deputy tower lord, and beneath him was the four protectors from north, south, east, and west. The south protector was one of the four protectors.

Every one of the four protectors had the strength of a late Martial King. The matters of Cloud Mist Tower were usually decided by them.

Of course, the most important question was to report to the master of the house, Ling Yun.

The Misty Cloud Tower had four halls, and each of the four protectors had their own responsibilities. The Southern Protector was the head of the Thousand Gold Hall, and he governed the properties of the Misty Cloud Tower, which was equivalent to a country's Minister of Finance.

Mo Xin was so excited that his face was flushed, and stars started to appear in his eyes. It was as though he could see countless gold coins spinning in front of him.

Seeing him like this, Ling Yun could not help but smile.

Then, he began to chat with the other youths. These people, their families were on the side of the royal family, and these fellows were his playmates when he was young. He had to give them bones to eat meat.

Since the establishment of the Cloud Mist Tower, he had arranged for these guys to cooperate with the Cloud Mist Tower and share a portion of the spoils with them.

A few minutes later, two screams came from afar. Lingyun raised his eyebrows, but he was not surprised.

Smiling faintly, he said, "It's over. Let's go. The rest will be handed over to the patrolling guards and city guards. Wen Shang should be surprised by the surprise I gave him! "

The corners of Mo Xin's and the rest's mouths twitched. This was indeed unexpected. In a day, no, two hours, how could they not be surprised when you consecutively gave them two 'surprises'?

A thousand meters away, in a rather remote and narrow alley, smoke and dust rose in all directions. There were some shallow ravines on the ground, and the air still had some traces of spirit energy fluctuating.

The four guards that Ling Yun had sent to intercept Lin Zheng were precisely those two guards. These two guards were really unlucky. In order to return to the house of the Marquis as soon as possible, they took a shortcut and headed there.

However, they never would have thought that they would be intercepted and killed here. Even until death, they didn't understand how someone dared to kill them. One had to know that they were the guards of the Eastern Residence of Marquis Zhen!

If they had known that they would be intercepted, they would definitely not have chosen this remote path. However, there were no 'ifs' in this world.

"Let's go!"

A guard that Lingyun sent stood up in front of one of Lin Zheng's bodyguards' corpses, listening to the sound of footsteps coming from not too far away.

Knowing that the patrolling guards and city guards in charge of security in Ling Xiao City had arrived, he gave a low shout and exchanged a glance with the other three. With a wave of his sleeve, dust flew into the air and buried the traces of the battle.

Within the alley, the smoke and dust had dispersed. There were only two corpses in the Eastern Residence's guard uniforms lying there. Their eyes were wide open and filled with disbelief.

One of them held a command medallion tightly. On the medallion, there was a line that was clearly torn. The faint outline of the two words "Wen Yuan" could be seen on it.

"Captain, there are two bodies over there." As soon as the four of them left, a group of soldiers in silver armor appeared outside the alley.

This was the guard duty of the Wen Yuan Manor. One of them, with his sharp eyes, happened to see the corpse lying in the alley, and immediately cried out in alarm.

He felt incredulous. Although this place was remote, it was still a good place for public security. It was rare for such murders to happen here.

"Let's go in and take a look!" With a wave of his hand, the team leader walked into the alley. When they saw the clothes of the dead, everyone's expression changed and they quickened their pace.

"Who exactly is it? "He dares to intercept and kill the guards of the Eastern Residence of Marquis?" The captain called out, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

Encountering something like this where he was on duty was simply a disaster. If the Eastern Marquis were to investigate this matter and say that they neglected patrolling, then they would truly be finished.

"Captain, these two seem to be Lin Zheng's Young Marquis' personal guards!" Your subordinate has once seen the young duke Lin Zheng bringing them to the Spring Breeze House. " At this moment, one of the patrolling guards asked in surprise.

"What?" The squad leader's face suddenly turned pale. His personal bodyguard had fallen, what did this mean? It meant that his master was in danger as well.

"Quick, quick, look around and see if there's any Lin Zheng, Young Marquis …" The squad captain panicked as he saw his subordinate stunned, unable to react in time. Immediately, he shouted out in anger, "Hurry up!"

"Yes sir!"

The tens of guards immediately spread out, cautiously scanning the surrounding area, fearfully digging into the grass to see if they could find any clues.

He was afraid that the murderer would suddenly appear. After all, the murderer was extremely daring and even dared to kill the son of a duke, not to mention a small fry like them.

It turned out that their fears were unnecessary, and that the killer had already escaped somewhere.

"Captain, there's nothing!" The dispersed scouts quickly regrouped.

Of course, they wouldn't have thought that the culprit and the envoy would be heading to the Mo Clan at this moment.

"You didn't find anything?" The captain's face was gloomy. He walked towards the two corpses. When he saw the token in their hands, he tightly gripped it.

His expression changed abruptly as disbelief and confusion appeared in his eyes. He muttered to himself, "How is this possible? Why would the duke and the others make a move against the Marquis of Zhen Dong?"

Although he did not know the reason, the token was still there. From his clenched hand and the broken string, he could tell that it was real.

He took a step forward, crouched down, and was about to take out the medallion. No matter what, he couldn't let Marquis Lin Quan know of this.

"Stop!"
