Chapter 53 Before the Second Trial Begins
Lin Mo asked first: "What did you mean when you said that the families were not doing well? Tell me in detail the relationship between the families and the specific situation ."
Zhang Xian thought for a moment and said, "First of all, because the Emperor Mo of the Great Mo Dynasty is already old, in order for the new emperor to fully inherit the Great Mo Dynasty, the Emperor Mo started various reforms a few years ago to weaken the martial arts forces in all aspects.
Because every time there is a reason and evidence, all major forces have acquiesced to this matter. Families like ours have some say in a city or a region, but to the Great Mo Dynasty, we are just a small ant, so each family strictly prohibits disciples from going out and making trouble to avoid being found by the court.
It is precisely because of this incident that there are signs of basic alliance between the various families, but it is only to intimidate some small forces under us. The possibility of complete mutual trust is too low.
Also, the Li family has always been controlled by the head of the Li family, Li Shoulei, but he is old, so I heard that he will pass the position of head of the family to his son Li Feng soon.
According to what I heard from the family, the head of the Li family is a little hesitant and lacks courage, but he won't make big mistakes. This may be because he wants to smoothly transition to the position of head of the family. I don't know the rest."
Lin Mo also sorted out the situation in Tianmu Domain. At present, the imperial court is still the largest, but the small and medium-sized forces from all sides should also be trying to survive. Therefore, they will not mobilize too many people for his own affairs. As for the head of the Li family and others, there is no need for him to confront them head-on for the time being.
Lin Mo nodded to show his approval of what Zhang Xian said, then he looked at Li Shu and said, "Xiao Shu, give me the highest quality, slow-acting poison you have."
Li Shu immediately understood and flipped through his space equipment, then found a small bottle and threw it to Lin Mo.
Lin Mo scanned it with the system, took one out and handed it to Zhang Xian.
Zhang Xian was indeed courageous and swallowed it directly.
Lin Mo said: "Although this poison is of high quality, I know that if you are determined to remove the poison, there is still a way, but the price is not low, so I will not force you to do something excessive, and you should not do anything that will harm me. You are a smart person, so I won't say anything extra.
First of all, you should quit as soon as the second trial starts. If the followers of the two families around you are trustworthy, they should also quit at the same time. Secondly, you will be the first to leave the underground palace. I need you to let the Zhang family remain neutral as much as possible when I and others fight. At least you should be able to pretend to do so.
The rest will be discussed after I come out. By the way, the person next to me is the young master of the Holy Medical Alliance, so don’t try to cure the poison casually. I won’t care if anything happens. If you want the antidote, just deal with the matter after the underground palace is closed.”
Zhang Xian nodded after listening to it, and said nothing more. He returned to the crowd alone. Everyone looked at him and he said, "Lin Mo probably doesn't know much about our ambush on him. He didn't say much about the details. Let's just follow the original plan."
Everyone nodded and began to discuss how to deal with Liu Emei and her group.
Zhang Xian's face was not in a good state. He just escaped the first disaster. After he got out, he had to hope that Lin Mo would be safe. Moreover, the status of the young man next to him was so high that he gave up the idea of finding another antidote. He could only take everything one step at a time.
At this time, Lin Mo said to Li Shu: "Your pill is interesting. It will only cause the other person to have slight pain in cold and rainy weather, and the effect is only for half a year."
Li Shu scratched his head and said, "Brother Lin, you should have told me in advance. Fortunately, I accidentally made a bottle of useless medicine before, otherwise I really couldn't find a suitable one. It's also my fault that the alliance didn't allow me to make poison, so now I don't even have a bottle of poison."
Lin Mo said, "This is the best way, because the best poison is the one that cannot be detected. I never believe that poison can control people. If there is a poison, there is naturally an antidote. When I get out, at least I can avoid the intervention of one party, and I can also put a nail in the wall."
Li Shu said, "Brother Lin, how about I help you after we get out? The Holy Medical Alliance should send an expert to pick me up."
Lin Mo thought for a moment and said, "You can help me stop other big forces when the time comes. After all, I have offended many people, and I will offend more soon. I will deal with Tianmu Territory by myself. They can't send strong people, and I also need to make a name for myself."
Li Shu frowned and said, "Brother Lin, the people from the Heavenly Demon Palace might take action at that time, and after killing Han Xiao and Liu Emei, the people behind these two parties will also take action." Finally, he looked at Meng Qing from the Dugu Demon Sect and kept silent.
Lin Mo said to Meng Qing at this time: "If the people from the Heavenly Demon Palace ask about Feng Hen's whereabouts, you can just tell them directly."
Meng Qing nodded. After all, he and Lin Mo were just partners, so Feng Hen still had to take the blame.
Li Shu said: "Brother Lin, this will make you and the Heavenly Demon Palace completely enemies."
Lin Mo said: "This matter cannot be concealed, and even if this hatred is formed, it may not be that deep. Everything is still under control. Xiao Shu, when the time comes, I will trouble you to help me block the visitor from one of the major forces."
Li Shu patted his chest and said, "Leave it to me, these are all trivial matters."
Afterwards, the three of them stopped talking and began to sit cross-legged with their eyes closed to rest.
Lin Mo also took out "Guan Tian Du Fa" and studied it carefully. Due to the system, he was able to get started very quickly. Just by getting started, his mental power increased by more than two times, and his thinking became clearer.
Lin Mo felt that he was constantly comprehending the meaning of many techniques that he had not understood before. At the same time, the surge in mental strength allowed him to not only perceive his opponents with his eyes, but his sixth sense also became much stronger.
Just like at this moment, he felt that Han Xiao looked at him from time to time with a murderous look in his eyes, and Meng Ting also looked at him from time to time with a very complicated look, with fear, attachment, regret, etc.
Lin Mo frowned and looked at Meng Ting. Meng Ting's emotions were very strange, especially the fear. Did she guess that he was going to deal with their group? But after looking at Han Xiao, he found that this idiot was still the same.
If this group knew that he would take action, Han Xiao would never dare to look at him like that again. Now all parties have roughly guessed Lin Mo's strength, and more importantly, Meng Qing's attitude towards him also indirectly confirmed this.
Is Meng Ting the only one who knows? If so, it's fine. Lin Mo doesn't intend to let Liu Emei and Han Xiao go this time. He knows very well what caused him to offend the seven major families in Tianmu Territory.
Liu Emei's charm was the reason for everything. Although no one knew whether she did it intentionally or unintentionally, she definitely had the intention to test him. She probably didn't expect that in the end Lin Mo would be hunted down by the seven major families.
But since you have done it, you have to take responsibility, and the only way to take responsibility is to pay with your life.
