Chapter 174: Encountering the Men in Black Again (3)
“Then let’s go in now.” Leng Ruoxue nodded. She liked the punishment of living a life worse than death!
“Okay.” Mo Yingyue pushed open the door and entered first.
“W-why are you here?” Patriarch Mo, who was about to go to bed, was surprised that no one notified him that his granddaughter, the empress, came. Hmph! These servants are really negligent.
“What? Grandfather, can’t I be here?” Mo Yingyue said indifferently with a sweet smile on her face.
“Of course not. What I mean is, why didn’t anyone notify me?” Patriarch Mo said while suppressing the anger in his heart. Hmph! If it wasn’t for Master not wanting me to start a conflict with the imperial family now, would I be so easygoing?
“It would have taken too long to notify,” Mo Yingyue explained. The guards and servants in the yard were probably sleeping soundly now!
“Then why did you come to see Grandfather?” Patriarch Mo asked as he sat on a chair.
“Yes, there’s something.”
“Oh? And these two are?” Patriarch Mo’s gaze suddenly turned to Leng Ruoxue and Freak. He actually couldn’t see their cultivation levels? It was too strange. He was a Spiritual Sovereign at any rate, so he would never believe that these two beautiful little fellows who looked less than twenty years old would be stronger than him.
“Didn’t Grandfather want to see Leng Ruoxue? I brought her here,” Mo Yingyue said with a smile.
“You are Leng Ruoxue?” Patriarch Mo was shocked. Is she so strong that even I can’t tell her cultivation level?
“Yes.” Leng Ruoxue nodded lightly and casually sized up the patriarch of the Mo family.
Patriarch Mo was about seventy years old. He had an ordinary appearance, a pair of shrewd eyes, and decent strength. He was an advanced Spiritual Sovereign. But her impression of him wasn’t good. Moreover, she really hated his scheming eyes.
“Oh, so it’s Miss Leng. This old man was rude. I have long heard of Miss Leng’s great name. It’s a pity that I haven’t been able to meet you all this time!” Patriarch Mo said with a flattering face.
“Big Sister Mo, let’s get down to business!” Leng Ruoxue said directly to Mo Yingyue without even looking at Patriarch Mo.
“Grandfather, I’m here today to ask you to give up your position as the patriarch,” Mo Yingyue said coldly, as if what she said was an ordinary thing.
“W-what did you say?” Patriarch Mo was so angry that his face turned livid. How could he have such an unfilial granddaughter?
“I want Grandfather to give up your position as the patriarch,” Mo Yingyue repeated patiently. She knew that the old patriarch and Ruoxue decided not to kill anyone from the Mo family because of her. Since that was the case, she certainly couldn’t disappoint them. She had to take control of the Mo family.
“You unfilial grandchild! Guards! Chase her out! The Mo family no longer welcomes her!” Patriarch Mo shouted out directly. He was so angry that his whole body was trembling, and he was breathing heavily.
“Grandfather, calm down,” Mo Yingyue said with concern. She went forward, pinched her grandfather’s mouth, and threw a pill into it.
Cough cough! “What did you feed me?” Patriarch Mo clutched his throat in panic, trying to spit out the pill. But the pill melted as soon as it entered his mouth, and it was long gone.
“Don’t worry. It’s not poison. It won’t kill,” Mo Yingyue said nonchalantly. She didn’t know how long Ruoxue’s medicine could last. Should I give him a few more?
“Big Sister Mo, one pill is enough,” Leng Ruoxue said with some amusement after seeing through Mo Yingyue’s thought. The person who took her newly concocted controlling pill wouldn’t wake up at all unless given an antidote.
“Oh, Grandfather, pass me the position of patriarch now!” Mo Yingyue tried asking curiously.
“Okay, I’ll pass it to you,” Patriarch Mo said obediently.
“You will announce this news tomorrow morning. Exterminate all those who oppose you,” Mo Yingyue ordered and then left Patriarch Mo’s room.
“Okay, kill all those who oppose without mercy!” Patriarch Mo promised fiercely.
The three of them then left Patriarch Mo’s room. Then Mo Yingyue did the same to her uncle and the elders in the family. In less than an hour, the entire Mo family was in Mo Yingyue’s hands.
“Big Sister Mo, I didn’t expect you to be so devious,” Leng Ruoxue teased on the way out of the Mo family mansion. Big Sister Mo is so bad. She actually ordered Mo Changhe not to touch any woman for the rest of his life.
“Hmph! There’s no graver punishment for him,” Mo Yingyue explained with a smile. That uncle of hers loved women the most. Forcing him never to touch women in his life was definitely more unbearable than killing him. However…
“Ruoxue, will they really listen to me?” Mo Yingyue couldn’t help asking. Did Ruoxue make this medicine sound too amazing?
“Of course! Big Sister Mo, you have to have confidence in me. This young lady is an honest child. I don’t know how to deceive others. I absolutely won’t lie to anyone,” Leng Ruoxue promised while patting her chest.
At the side, Freak quietly listened to the conversation between the two women. Cold sweat rolled down his forehead, and his heart kept skipping. Women are really too scary. I can’t let these two women meet frequently in the future, or else men will be in danger!
When they arrived at the meeting place, Leng Ruoxue found out that her group was the fastest. Will Grandpa and the old man be okay? She couldn’t help worrying.
After a while, Leng Qingtian and Lin Liang arrived.
“Grandpa, Grandpa Lin, why did you take so long?” Leng Ruoxue asked in puzzlement.
“Xue’er, we encountered a team of men in black again at the Chen family. If Old Lin and I hadn’t teamed up, we might not have been able to leave,” Leng Qingtian explained.
“Men in black?” Speaking of men in black, Leng Ruoxue couldn’t help thinking of the man in black they encountered before the Academy Competition.
“Oh no, let’s go to the Fu family!” Leng Ruoxue suddenly said. Her grandfather and the others had encountered the men in black, so the old man’s group might have also encountered them. Moreover, the old man’s group was far weaker than her grandfather’s group!
