Chapter 35: Have Eyes but Fail to See

The next day, Mo's mansion.

Mo Xiu slid around in the mansion.

For him before, only the yard he lived in was his site, and only Mo Ruyi was his own underling.

Now, Mo Ruyi had become the head of the Mo Family, which was equivalent to the entire Mo Family under his control. Although he still had to be biased towards the people in the mansion, he could not be too unfair or too biased.

Before, when Wan Yixuan brought people from the five great families to the door, Mo Ruyi still took the people from the Mo Family to hide in the yard where he lived, which was somewhat troublesome.

In addition, the Spirit Gathering Array in his courtyard was still running. Even though Mo Ruyi's cultivation level could indeed be improved quickly, it was not so easy for the others in the Mo Family to improve their strength.

The Mo Family wanted to re-emerge, but it was not just Mo Ruyi that needed to become stronger, it was the overall strength of the Mo Family that needed to be improved.

After thinking about it, he decided to arrange the Spirit Gathering Array within the entire Mo's mansion, and at the same time, he added another large defensive array.

As for the killing array and Spirit Gathering Array in the courtyard where he lived, they could continue to operate as the second protection and the second spirit gathering site.

The Spirit Gathering Array and the Great Protective Array covering the entire Mo's mansion were naturally arranged outside the Mo Family's mansion.

Mo Xiu walked out of the gate of the mansion and looked around the mansion.

At this time, two familiar figures came slowly from a distance, it was Yan Ran and Lin Jiannan who had been rescued by Mo Xiu casually not long before.

Both of them came with face masks, looking mysterious, but they couldn't hide from Mo Xiu's demon eyes.

When Mo Xiu saw the two, they also found Mo Xiu, and suddenly felt a little surprised.

"You... why are you here?" Yan Ran looked at Mo Xiu, feeling a little guilty somehow.

Before Mo Xiu could answer, she said to Lin Jiannan behind her, "Can I say a few words to him alone?"

"Good."

Lin Jiannan nodded, took the initiative to move away, symbolling that he did not want to disturb the conversation between the two of them, but he still watched from a distance as if worried that Mo Xiu would do anything rude to Yan Ran.

With only two people left, Yan Ran turned his gaze to Mo Xiu, "Thank you very much for what happened yesterday. And still the same sentence, I will repay you in the future."

"Yeah." Mo Xiu nodded.

Yan Ran took a deep breath and then said, "Today I am looking for Mo Xiu of the Mo Family. If it goes well, I might marry him."

She still didn't know that the person standing in front of her was Mo Xiu. After all, the two met outside the Mo's mansion. She thought that if the person in front of her was a child of the Mo Family instead, the meeting place would definitely be inside the Mo Family's house.

Of course, Mo Xiu knew Yan Ran's intentions, but it was not suitable for him to show his identity at this time, otherwise, it would make him look like he was looking forward to marrying Yan Ran instead.

Naturally, Yan Ran didn't know Mo Xiu's inner thoughts, and continued, "I don't want to marry him, but I am carrying a sea of ​​blood and deep revenge. In order to get revenge, I have no choice."

"I understand." Mo Xiu nodded lightly, looking very calm from beginning to end.

Seeing Mo Xiu's calm and flat appearance, Yan Ran felt a little uncomfortable in her heart as if a huge rock was weighing heavily on her heart, tears gradually blurred her vision.

Realizing that it was not good, she quickly turned around, "That's all I want to say, goodbye."

After speaking, she wiped her tears secretly and walked towards Lin Jiannan.

Lin Jiannan saw that the conversation between the two was over, he walked over slowly.

After coming to Yan Ran, he looked at Mo Xiu and said, "You are a good person, and you do have some abilities, but you are not worthy of Her Highness, so please forget her."

"..."

Mo Xiu suddenly became speechless. It was the first time he heard someone say that he was not worthy of a woman.

In his previous life, he was the strongest Everlasting Demon King in the Realm of Heaven. There were only women who were not worthy of him. How could he be the one who was unworthy some any instead?

Before he could say anything, Yan Ran pulled Lin Jiannan's sleeves and whispered, "Let's go in."

"Good."

Lin Jiannan nodded, retracted his gaze, ignored Mo Xiu, and stepped into the mansion with Yan Ran.

Mo Xiu shook his head slightly, in the end, he didn't pay attention to it. After inspecting around the Mo Family's mansion, he began to arrange the Spirit Gathering Array and the protective array.

...

Yan Ran and Lin Jiannan entered the Mo's mansion and let people go to inform the current Mo Family's monarch. After a short while, they saw Mo Ruyi coming.

"How… how could it be you?" Seeing Mo Ruyi's at her first glance, Yan Ran froze.

Lin Jiannan was a little puzzled and couldn't help but asked in a low voice, "Do you know each other?"

"..."

Yan Ran did not answer, but her thoughts turned sharply. Soon, like divine enlightenment, many things were realized, and she couldn't help but muttered, "It could not be such a coincidence, right?"

Mo Ruyi knew Yan Ran's identity a long time ago, so she didn't feel surprised at all. She smiled and said, "Your Royal Highness, we meet again."

After finishing speaking, she said slightly apologetically, "The last time we met, I didn't identify myself. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

"I am no longer Princess Yan."

Yan Ran gave a bitter smile, and quickly said, "You are the ruler of the Mo Family, Mo Ruyi, then the person who was with you last time... is Mo Xiu, who recently became famous in Sun Martial City, right?"

"Yes." Mo Ruyi nodded.

"..." Yan Ran didn't know whether to be happy or sad after she got the affirmation.

She was happy because the person who moved her heart was Mo Xiu, and she was sad because she just said something that shouldn't be said in front of Mo Xiu, and even Lin Jiannan said that that fellow was not worthy of her.

Obviously, they came to the Mo Family to propose marriage, but they said that Mo Xiu was not worthy of her. What was this situation?

"Your Highness, have you and Mo Xiu also met?" Lin Jiannan couldn't help but ask with curiosity.

Yan Ran's face became a little weird, "The person we saw outside just now is Mo Xiu."

"What!" Lin Jiannan was dumbfounded.

At this time, a rumbling sound rang, and the whole Mo Family could hear it clearly.

Immediately, the warriors in the Mo's mansion were surprised to find that the Spiritual Energy that had become extremely thin had swiftly become rich instead.

After the warriors in the Mo's mansion figured out the reason for the strong Spiritual Energy, they cheered:

"Long live Young Master Xiu!"

"Long live Young Master Xiu!"

"Long live Young Master Xiu!"

...

The cheers came one after another so that they could be heard in every corner of the mansion.

Yan Ran and Lin Jiannan naturally felt that the Spiritual Energy around them had become a lot richer. Before they could figure out the situation, they heard Mo Ruyi's explanation, "It should be Mo Xiu that arranged the Spirit Gathering Array in the entire Mo's mansion. It's not a big deal, you two don't have to worry about it."

"..."

Yan Ran and Lin Jiannan were dumbfounded.

The name "Spirit Gathering Formation" was easy to understand. It must be a magic array that could gather the surrounding Spirit Energy. But they had only heard of killing array, illusion array, protective array, and hidden array, this was the first time that they heard this kind of array.

There was such a magic array in the world?

Mo Xiu could even arrange a Spirit Gathering Array?

As if remembering something, Lin Jiannan asked quickly, "The Spiritual Energy of Sun Martial City has suddenly become extremely thin recently, could it be because someone has arranged a Spirit Gathering Array?"

Mo Ruyi nodded, "It was arranged by Mo Xiu. This is the second one."

The corners of Lin Jiannan's mouth twitched fiercely, and the image of Mo Xiu in his heart became even more unpredictable.

The funny thing was that he even said that Mo Xiu was not worthy of Yan Ran just now. Thinking about it, he felt a little ashamed. He really wanted to find a hole and hide in it now.

"Rumble..."

It was another magic array, but this time it was a protective array. It was not activated immediately after it was set up, therefore, there was nothing unusual in the Mo's mansion initially. Although the people in the mansion felt a little confused, they did not think much.

After the two magic arrays were arranged, Mo Xiu returned inside.

Originally, he wanted to go directly to the yard where he lived, but he thought that it would save some troubles if he went to the living room instead, so he turned to the lobby.

As soon as he entered the lobby, he saw a figure quickly came in front of him, bowed, and apologized, "Young Master Mo Xiu, I had no eyes before, and I inadvertently offended Young Master. Please forgive me."

"En."

Mo Xiu didn't take it seriously, after all, it was not his enemy, otherwise, this Lin Jiannan would have already died, and would not be able to stand in front of him and apologize to him so easily.

He went straight to the main seat, sat down, and took a sip of tea.

At this moment, Mo Ruyi also reacted and quickly asked, "Mo Xiu, did he offend you just now?"

Mo Ruyi had always regarded Mo Xiu as a more important person than herself. So since she didn't know that Lin Jiannan had offended Mo Xiu previously, she naturally couldn't help asking now, even considering whether to teach Lin Jiannan a lesson.

Mo Xiu waved his hand, "It's okay."

He said, looking at Yan Ran, "Let's talk business."

Yan Ran froze for a moment, always feeling that Mo Xiu was a little too calm. It was obvious that she was so ashamed of what happened just now. Why did it seem that nothing happened to Mo Xiu?

She smiled helplessly, and said, "You already know the business, and I hope to marry you."

"Marriage?"

Mo Ruyi couldn't help frowning. She thought that Yan Ran was only here to win over Mo Family. But now, it seemed that it was not that simple.

Although Mo Xiu can get married at will to Yan Ran, it might not be a good thing for the Mo Family. Moreover, from Mo Ruyi's own perspective, she didn't want the two to combine.

It was just that the subject of marriage was after all Mo Xiu, not her, and coupled with the fact that she was not very good at interfering with this kind of thing at that, everything could only be depended on Mo Xiu's own attitude ultimately.

Mo Xiu seemed very calm, without any sense of joy from heaven. Instead, he shook his head, "Marriage is not necessary. Your purpose is to take revenge on Yan Wuji. I can help you get revenge, but from now on, you have to listen to my command. If I let you go east, you can't go west, if I ask you to die, you can't live."
