Chapter 65

"Old man, is there any way to get rid of them?" Looking at the old man's weathered face, Tang Yu felt a pang of sympathy. He was his master, how could he bear to see him suffer and be pursued? Moreover, the old man was already advanced in age; how many more years could he endure such hardship?

The old man, however, smiled with a detached air. "Unless you kill all the bounty hunters, or become the leader of the bounty hunter organization."

"..." Tang Yu's heart trembled violently. Since it was an international organization, how could it be so easily wiped out, and how could one easily become the leader of such an organization? "I will try my best," Tang Yu said firmly.

"Hmph, it's good that you have this heart. But they won't catch me so easily. By the way, I have something else to give you. It was found in the home of an international drug lord when I killed him. I studied it for a while, but I didn't know what strange thing it was, so I didn't mess with it anymore. But I think it must be a good thing, because I found it in a secret cave in his house." The old man seemed to remember something, then bent his hunched body and took out a strange object from a broken suitcase, handing it to Tang Yu.

Tang Yu took it and saw that it was a jade artifact shaped like an open folding fan, with five ancient paintings of ladies in misty rain on it. Each painting had a small hole at the bottom, seemingly for inserting something. Tang Yu looked at it from all angles but couldn't figure out what it was. However, he thought that since it was something an international drug lord had hidden in a secret cave, it must have an extraordinary origin. The drug lord probably didn't know what it was either.

But with the experience of the small jade bottle, Tang Yu was sure that this was definitely another ancient antique, and it must have some shocking secret.

"These holes are probably for inserting something. Once all the holes are filled with the right things, we might be able to uncover its secret," Tang Yu said, looking at the old man.

"I thought the same. What the hell it is, I don't even know if it exists. Take it, maybe you'll encounter the right things to put in it someday. It's useless to me. If you happen to uncover its secret, it will be your good fortune," the old man said indifferently.

Tang Yu nodded, wrapped the object, and put it in his pocket.

The Mo Family.

The Mo Family had been very unlucky recently. They used to recruit many new students to their martial arts school every month, but now the place was deserted, with no one visiting. This had caused significant losses for the Mo Family in the martial arts school business, and it was all because of Tang Yu.

In the main hall, Mo Yu's face was pale as he listened to the financial report. The Mo Family's revenue was mostly from the martial arts school, and with no one enrolling, there was no income.

Mo Long and Mo Kuan stood nervously in front of Mo Yu, not knowing what to say. The current awkward situation was entirely due to their incompetence.

Mo Kuan being defeated in three moves by Tang Yu was humiliating enough, and they had hoped that Mo Long would knock Tang Yu out in one move to save face. But unexpectedly, Mo Long was defeated in two moves. It was a great disgrace, adding insult to injury! The Mo Family's reputation as the top martial arts family in Jinghai City had suffered a devastating blow!

Mo Yu's face was ashen as he looked at the Mo Family's disciples.

"That boy defeated Kuan in three moves, and a few days later, he defeated Long in just two moves. And he didn't hide his strength the first time, which means his martial arts have improved significantly in a few days. This is a significant discovery. Perhaps he has some secret to quickly enhance his strength. Kuan, I have a task for you," Mo Yu said, looking at Mo Kuan.

"Grandfather, please instruct me," Mo Kuan responded hurriedly.

"Go and befriend that boy, and try to get some clues from him." Mo Yu said abruptly.

"Ah, Grandfather, you want me to, to befriend him! Grandfather, I, I'm afraid he won't agree!" Mo Kuan was shocked. He never expected his grandfather to ask him to befriend Tang Yu. Not only was he unsure if Tang Yu would agree, but he himself was extremely unwilling. If he befriended Tang Yu, it would mean giving Chu Yarou to him. Although Chu Yarou wasn't from a prestigious family, she was beautiful and graceful, and he dreamed of spending a night with her. But now...

"Regardless, you must find a way to befriend him. A man can bend and stretch. Endure it for now. Once you get the secret from him, you can take revenge later," Mo Yu said coldly, seeing Mo Kuan's reluctance.

"Ah! Yes, Grandfather, Kuan understands. The disgrace to the Mo Family started with me, and I will complete the task you have given me," Mo Kuan said hurriedly.

"That's good. Although the Mo Family has suffered a heavy blow, it doesn't mean we will always be in this state. The reason the Mo Family has developed so quickly in recent years is because I am the chairman of the Jinghai City Martial Arts Association. At the re-election conference in two months, we will crush our opponents and turn the tide. At that time, there will be no worry about the Mo Family not reviving," Mo Yu said with a far-off look in his eyes.

"Father, you're right. Your strength is unmatched in all of Jinghai, and even beyond. Now that the old man from the Qu family can't fight anymore, the position of chairman of the Jinghai City Martial Arts Association still belongs to you. At that time, we will make all those who doubt the Mo Family shut up!" Mo Long said excitedly.

"However... the Mo Family can't rely on me forever. You and Kuan need to take on more responsibility sooner..." Mo Yu reminded them, a hint of helplessness in his voice. He had thought he could entrust the Mo Family to Mo Long and Mo Kuan and step back, but they had been defeated by Tang Yu. It seemed that at the next re-election, he would have to take action himself to be re-elected!

"Yes!" "Yes!" Mo Long and Mo Kuan responded in unison. The other Mo Family disciples, hearing Mo Yu only mention their names, were very unhappy but dared not say anything.
