Chapter 195

Seeing Yu Mugao sat on the high seat in the hall, and the two peak Qi Refining guests stood respectfully on the side. No one dared to speak in the empty hall. Seeing Yu Mugao's expression was slightly tired. Obviously, he had suffered a lot during this period, and said in a deep voice:

"Muyuan, is there still no news of Mujian?"

The person below was thin and tall, with seven points of similarity to Seeing Yu Mugao between his eyebrows, but not as gloomy and vicious as him. It was one of the two people who used to follow him. Hearing this, he nodded and said respectfully:

"Fourth brother said he was looking for a place to polish the sharpness of the sword and went north. He has been gone for several months, and I haven't seen him have any intention of coming back."

"Bastard thing."

Seeing Yu Mugao cursed in a low voice, but he had no way to deal with this younger brother who was obsessed with the sword path, and sighed in a low voice:

"Muyuan, fortunately you are watching, otherwise with so many troubles at home, I would be exhausted."

"Don't dare, just sharing worries for the elder brother."

Yu Muyuan answered. A person walked up in a hurry below, holding a letter in his hand, handed it to Seeing Yu Mugao, and said in a low voice:

"Family Head, a secret letter from Ma Haiji of Huaqian Mountain!"

Seeing Yu Mugao raised his eyebrows, his expression gloomy. He took the letter, slapped the wax seal, took out the letter paper and read it twice. His face immediately turned ugly, and he gritted his teeth and shouted:

He closed his eyes and thought for a while, handed the letter to Yu Muyuan below. Yu Muyuan took the letter with both hands, took a look, and couldn't hold it for a while, shouting:

"This! How is it possible! How many years have passed? An Jingming has reached this cultivation level?!"

"Eighth layer of Qi Refining, how is this possible, is this cultivation speed some kind of monster? Is this news from the Li family reliable? Our family has a good relationship with the An family now, is this a strategy of alienation, trying to target the An family?"

Seeing Yu Mugao closed his eyes and thought for a while, shook his head, and said in a deep voice:

"Not very likely. The Li family has always been restrained, and Li Tongya is not a troublemaker. According to the spy, this news was obtained by nine deaths and one life, so it shouldn't be the Li family's scheme."

Neither Li Yuanxiu nor Seeing Yu Mugao expected that in order to highlight his contribution, Ma Haiji added oil and vinegar to the letter, describing the process of obtaining this news as nine deaths and one life, which affected Seeing Yu Mugao's judgment and made him more certain of this news.

Yu Muyuan cupped his hands and gritted his teeth:

"If so, this child must not be left!"

Seeing Yu Mugao's face was terribly gloomy. An Jingming's cultivation progress far exceeded his expectations. He sighed deeply and said in a low voice:

"Naturally, it cannot be left. Our family must kill this person. With his cultivation speed, I am afraid he will break through to Foundation Establishment in a few years. When there are variables, it is best to suppress the Li family and the An family together, so that both families will suffer setbacks."

Yu Muyuan looked at his brother still thinking, knowing that Seeing Yu Mugao most likely had some poisonous plan. His brother's thoughts were always wild, unexpected, vicious, and sinister. So far, the characters targeted have not missed. So he didn't speak, just waited silently below.

Seeing Yu Mugao just thought for a few breaths, and he already had a plan in his heart, and said in a low voice:

"The An family revealed the location of the Li family's towns and arranged for the people our family sneaked in, which is the best."

"Now I have a way to kill the Li family's prestige first, and then catch the An family by surprise. We have indulged these two families for too long, and it is time to restrict these two families."

Seeing Yu Mugao smiled slightly, obviously already winning, and said softly:

"Let Guest Jiang come up."

The servants below arranged it in a hurry. Before long, an old man with white hair was brought up. His face was covered with wrinkles, and he looked at least 150 years old. His cultivation was only the third layer of Qi Refining, and his breath was dying, but he laughed loudly, cupped his hands and said:

"Guest Jiang!"

Seeing Yu Mugao was very polite, obviously quite respectful to this Guest Jiang, and smiled:

"There is indeed a person to be removed, which is to trouble the gentleman."

Guest Jiang sat on a red wooden chair on the side, crossed his legs carelessly, and Seeing Yu Mugao had no anger, but greeted Yu Muyuan and smiled:

"Trouble the fifth brother to accompany me for a trip!"

————

Ma Haiji lit a fire, wrapped the paper letter, put it on the fire, and saw the paper letter disappear. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, looked around, packed his things, and prepared to go home.

Ma Haiji walked a few steps, turned his head again, stepped on the fire, covered it with mud, and then nodded with relief, walked dozens of steps, suddenly felt something was wrong, squatted on the ground, and muttered:

"The Li family attaches such importance to this news, they must have their own plans. I have already passed this news to my home. Seeing Yu Mugao will definitely take action to destroy it. In the end, the Li family will always notice the leakage of the news..."

"If Tian Zhongqing returns to the courtyard, sees the letter paper on the ground, and asks the servant, he will definitely know that only I have been to this courtyard. Isn't that exposed?!"

Ma Haiji's body was shocked, and he was distressed for a while, secretly said:

"There is no way back now! Don't go back to the Li family again. I am afraid that the family has already set up a net of heaven and earth. Going home is just a dead end."

Carrying his luggage, Ma Haiji was already terrified, muttering:

"Can't wait for the reply from home, it's time to go now, run to home!"

Ma Haiji still had some brains. He sorted out the cause and effect for a while, carried his luggage and drilled into the forest, walked north for a stick of incense, and was scratched by branches and thorns, but suddenly a person fell in front of him.

This person was dressed quite simply, wearing a simple gray robe, with a sword hanging from his waist. His bearing was graceful, and his eyes were staring at him tightly, smiling:

"Where is the gentleman going?"

Ma Haiji was horrified, his legs were trembling, knowing that he had been exposed, and cried:

"Who are you?"

"I am Chen Donghe!"

Chen Donghe smiled slightly, glanced at Ma Haiji, and said in a low voice:

"You are quite sharp. If we hadn't been waiting on the side, I am afraid we would have let you run away."

"Chen Donghe... Qi Refining cultivator!"

Ma Haiji had been in the Li family for many years. Although he had always been an ordinary official, he knew the name of Chen Donghe. He touched a dagger from his waist and cut it directly toward his throat.

But Ma Haiji was just a mortal. Chen Donghe just flicked his finger, and the dagger in Ma Haiji's hand was hit by the Qi, and it fell off his hand directly, falling by a small river on the side. With another wave of his hand, Ma Haiji collapsed on the ground softly.

Chen Donghe looked at Ma Haiji with pity, carried this person and rode the wind, heading west to Lijing Mountain.
