Chapter 1424: Chapter 1424: Heading to the Mo Family Chapter 1424: Chapter 1424: Heading to the Mo Family The Mo Family’s shuttlecraft was naturally of extraordinary quality, at least one level higher than that of the Mixed Spirit Academy!

Shuttling through the spatial rifts, one couldn’t make out the surrounding scenery with the naked eye. Just a glance and the scenery from a second ago hadn’t been fully observed before dozens more had already passed by…

On the shuttlecraft, Mo Yu and Lu Changsheng were discussing some details about the Mo Family.

Behind them, Mo Xing looked puzzledly towards the three elders and towards the direction of Lu Changsheng, asking, “Elders, why do we need to be so respectful towards him? Our Mo Family shouldn’t need to act like this towards anyone, right? Even if he has done us a favor, can’t we just repay him several times over?”

The comers were the Mo Family’s Second Elder, Third Elder, and Fourth Elder.

The Second Elder, with a solemn expression, said, “Although the Mo Family is proud, you should not display your pride outwardly—it should be hidden deep within your bones!”

“Moreover, none of us three can see through his realm, and he has easily slain so many desperadoes. Do you think his realm would be simple?

A realm that even three elders couldn’t see through must have already surpassed the realm of a Demigod!

Such a person stands at the pinnacle of the hierarchy of the Tianji Continent!

And is a powerhouse who can stand shoulder to shoulder with the head of the Mo Family!

Hearing this, Mo Xing gravely nodded and said, “I understand, I will go and apologize to him.”

Hearing his words, the three elders all nodded with a smile.

“A teachable child.”

Showing pride outwardly is pointless.

Similarly, those who have no pride are also pointless.

Pride should only be kept deep within the bones.

This is one of the ancestral instructions of the entire Mo Family.

Putting words into action, Mo Xing stepped forward behind Lu Changsheng, bowed with folded hands and said, “Senior, please forgive my previous rudeness.”

Lu Changsheng was slightly startled, turned his head to look at Mo Xing, and said, “Ah? Rudeness… Oh, it’s no big deal.”

Mo Xing, along with Mo Ling and the three elders: “…”

Clearly, Lu Changsheng hadn’t taken the previous matter to heart at all; in other words, he hadn’t taken Mo Xing seriously.

Although this struck a blow to Mo Xing, it was normal after all, given that their realms were not even on the same level…

The Second Elder then came forward to break the awkwardness, smiling and asking, “Senior, since the young miss has taken you as a master, she clearly holds great esteem for you. May I venture to ask… your mastery in puppet techniques must be very high, right?”

Puppet techniques?

What was that?

Lu Changsheng shook his head and said, “I’ve never touched it.”

Ah?

The Second Elder wiped the sweat from his forehead and awkwardly smiled, “That’s…”

Third Elder pulled on Second Elder and whispered, “Let’s wait until we get back to the family and see what the head of the family has to say.”

Fourth Elder also whispered with a bitter smile, “The Mo Family values mastery in puppet techniques highly. Now that the young miss has taken someone completely unfamiliar with the art of puppetry as her master, it may be difficult for the head of the family to accept.”

However, Mo Yu was not at all concerned about this matter and had a cheeky grin, “No worries, master, if you’d like to learn about the art of puppetry, you can just visit our family library and read whatever you want!”

The three elders nearly stumbled.

Isn’t the library a place off-limits to outsiders?

Never mind, after thinking it through, the three elders decided not to say anything more and leave everything to the head of the family to decide.

…

The Mo Family’s location was in the far east of the Tianji Continent.

Here, there were endless mountain ranges, yet not a single blade of grass grew on these mountains, which were completely barren, devoid of any magical beasts.

Only towers stood steadfast amongst these mountains, connected by suspended mechanical wooden pathways.

Lu Changsheng took one glance—the towers connected in a circle obviously had deeper implications.

It seemed the entire Mo Family was a massive puppet!

“Master, we’ve arrived!” Mo Yu exclaimed enthusiastically, pointing at the mountains.

The shuttlecraft had arrived at the entrance of the Mo Family, at the foot of the mountain range.

It seemed they had already received the news.

A solemn elder had been waiting at the entrance for some time.

The three elders, along with Mo Ling and Mo Xing, disembarked and respectfully bowed with their hands folded, “First Elder.”

It was clear that the status of the First Elder far surpassed that of the Second, Third, and Fourth Elders.

The First Elder slightly nodded and said to Mo Yu, “Young Miss, the head of the family has been waiting for a long time in the main building.”

After speaking, he walked inside, from start to finish not sparing Lu Changsheng a glance.

Perhaps worried that Lu Changsheng might feel slighted, the Second Elder hurriedly said, “Senior, the First Elder is like this with everyone. He is only interested in puppets, so please forgive him.”

Mo Yu also explained, “Master, the First Elder is the second highest expert in our Mo Family’s puppet making. He has devoted his entire life to the art of puppetry.”

Lu Changsheng nodded, indicating he didn’t mind.

Following the First Elder across the mechanical wooden pathway and through tower after tower.

The entire Mo Family seemed quiet, everywhere people were either making puppets, adjusting them, or holding scrolls and reading.

Mo Yu complained, “The house is no fun, there’s not even anyone to talk to.”

Without turning his head, the First Elder indifferently said, “The way of the puppet inherently requires that every detail be exquisitely flawless; the young miss, being highly talented, should also learn from them.”

Mo Yu made a ghost face at the First Elder.

After passing through dozens of towers, Lu Changsheng and company arrived in front of a towering loft.

Above the loft, a wooden plaque was engraved with a vigorous and powerful character, the aura revealed from it was even more profound.

The Second Elder looked at Lu Changsheng, who also noticed the plaque, and proudly said, “This character was written by the founder of our Mo Family back in the day…”

Before he could finish, Lu Changsheng retracted his gaze and nodded, “Hmm, the character looks quite nice.”

The character looks quite nice…

The corner of the Second Elder’s eyes twitched.

The First Elder led everyone into the main building.

Inside the main building, there were no luxurious decorations; everything was made of wood, giving it an ancient and fragrant smell everywhere.

In a huge meeting hall, a somewhat thin middle-aged man sat at the main seat, with two serious-faced elders seated to his side.

The three of them were scrutinizing Lu Changsheng up and down.

Lu Changsheng wasn’t nervous at all and calmly looked back at them.

At this moment, the First Elder and the Second Elder returned to their seats.

“Sir, may I know where you come from and what your intentions are?” the middle-aged man, Mo Hanlin, who was the head of the Mo Family, asked.

Before Lu Changsheng could say anything,

Mo Yu stood in front of Lu Changsheng, visibly upset, and said, “Dad, he’s my master, is this how you treat someone? It’s like you’re interrogating a criminal!”

Lu Changsheng pulled Mo Yu back and smiled, “I just saw that this little girl has great talent and is fated to be with me.”

“Oh? In that case, you must have a high mastery in puppet techniques, right?”
