MTL - The Leisurely Life of Infinite Gods-Chapter 738 Xue's family
The head of the Li family, Li Xiaoyao, looked at Tianya behind Chu Mo with a shocked face. At this time, he had already stood up, and he had completely lost the composure and calmness of the past.
Opposite Chu Mo, Li Hongda, the eldest son of the Li family, is full of doubts. He obviously doesn't know who the so-called Tianya senior is, but Li Hongda is a little puzzled about his father's performance, so he is also full of doubts. Look at the young man behind Chu Mo.
As the earliest advanced half-step **** in the whole country, and also the ultimate powerhouse at the age of 137, Tian Ya spent most of his life in seclusion, so there are really very few people who can know him. , and Li Xiaoyao in front of him is one of them.
Fifty years ago, when Tianya was eighty-seven years old, when he had just broken through the realm of the median grandmaster, Li Xiaoyao at that time was just a seven or eight-year-old urchin. At that time, Li Xiaoyao, the heir of the Li family, used to be in his own home. I have seen the world.
Fifty years ago, Tianya's appearance has hardly changed from now. The only difference is that the turbidity of his eyes is more intense, and his voice is also more vicissitudes.
Li Xiaoyao, who was still a child at the time, once saw his father, the previous head of the Li family, welcoming the young man with enthusiasm. Because of the time, Li Xiaoyao had forgotten the specific situation, but he remembered one thing very much. It is clear that his father once invited the other party to be the patron saint of his Li family, and promised to give the other party full support, but in the end he was rejected by the other party.
At that time, my father once said that if the Li family could get the support of this senior Tianya, their Li family's status in the eight major families could at least be improved by one level, from the original lower three to the upper three.
At that time, Li Xiaoyao didn't understand what his father meant by the lower three and the upper three, but now, every time he thinks about it, Li Xiaoyao feels regretful.
Although the eight great families of Huaguo are equally noble, they all have hands and eyes, and each family is a huge force like a prince. How much assets are divided.
Headed by the Xiangjiang Long family with assets of 3.7 trillion yuan, followed by the Northeast Wei family with assets of 2 trillion yuan, and the capital Yang family with assets of 1.8 trillion yuan, these three are the top three, and these three hold the most. The assets are the most powerful.
After that, there are the two middle ones with assets exceeding 1 trillion but less than 1.5 trillion, and finally, the next three with assets less than one trillion.
The Liu family in Zhongzhou and the Li family in Jiangnan belong to the next three families.
In the eight major families, the status of the eight patriarchs is divided according to the assets and power of their respective families. Although Li Xiaoyao is named one of the eight major family patriarchs, the assets of the Li family are only 800 billion, which is in the eyes of ordinary families. Li Xiaoyao sighs more than once, if the Li family can also have one Patronus, then his status will definitely improve a lot.
As for the Tianya senior in front of him, it is the existence that is almost called the patron saint of the Li family.
Tianya is one of Huaguo's top combat powers. It has occupied the second place on the Huaguo Legends list for 20 consecutive years, and its strength is second only to that of Shaolin Abbot Master Zhishang.
Even with such a powerful force as the Eight Great Families of Huaguo, there are only two of the Xiangjiang Long Family and the Southwest Wu Family, who are guarded by the Grandmaster level. Patronus, the Li family's status today is definitely more than that. Even if it can't compete with the Long family, it can at least be among the three.
And precisely because of this, Li Xiaoyao's impression of Tianya can be said to be extremely deep, even if it has been fifty years, even if he has only seen Tianya once, he still recognizes Tianya's identity at this time.
"Senior... It has been fifty years since the last time we parted. My father once said that the senior has a great favor to my Li family. If the senior has any requirements, my descendants of the Li family will do their best to fulfill it."
Li Xiaoyao looked respectful. After his words fell, Tianya on the opposite side was unmoved at all, still standing quietly behind Chu Mo, as if he didn't hear it.
Chu Mo didn't know that Tianya and the Li family still had a relationship. Originally, he was still thinking about how to get the Li family to obey, and even planned to use a longevity pill to send the Li family away, but now it seems that there is a layer of Tianya. Relationships don't seem to require too much effort.
He looked at the head of the Li family, and for a moment, he smiled and said:
"Since Mr. Li and Tianya are old times, why don't we reminisce about the old days here, I will let people arrange the wine and food."
Li Xiaoyao, who originally had other plans, narrowed his eyes slightly, he just pondered for a moment, and then immediately agreed:
"That would be troublesome to President Chu."
Chu Mo gestured towards Zhan Bingxue, who was beside him, and the other party immediately bowed to make arrangements.
In just a moment, a table of banquets appeared in front of him, but because of Chu Mo's presence, Tianya simply wanted to do it, and when Li Xiaoyao saw Tianya standing, he didn't dare to be presumptuous.
Seeing that he seemed to be an eyesore here, Chu Mo made an excuse to leave, leaving only the Li family, father and son, and Tian Ya in the entire top-floor sightseeing hall.
Chu Mo took the special elevator to the rest hall on the seventy-seventh floor, and followed Zhan Bingxue, who was always beside him, as if he was hesitant to speak. Chu Jie saw that she seemed to have something to say, so he opened his mouth and said:
"Why, are you worried that the Li family won't let go?"
Zhan Bingxue, who was beside her, shook her head slightly, and she slowly said:
"The several restaurants in Jiangnan are just a part of my layout. Although they are equally important, they are not so inevitable. If the Li family really refuses to let go, I can first cross Jiangnan and directly target Zhongzhou, and wait for recovery. After going to most of the restaurants in Huaguo, when I look back, I believe that the Li family will definitely let go at that time.
Therefore, there is no need for Mr. Chu to give up too much interest for several restaurants.
Senior Tianya is very powerful, if you just give it up to the Li family, it seems that the gain will outweigh the gain...! "
Zhan Bingxue has clearly seen Li Xiaoyao's intentions. The other party is obviously very interested in Tianya. It seems that he intends to draw Tianya to the Li family as a backer. If Chu Mo lets the Li family succeed because of a few restaurants, Zhan Bingxue is somewhat unacceptable. .
Chu Mo came to the huge floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the bustling city under his feet. He only slightly raised the corner of his mouth, took a deep breath, and said:
"The current Tianya is not the Tianya 50 years ago. Even the Tianya 50 years ago refused the invitation of the Li family, so it is even more impossible for the current Tianya to waste their time and do what the Li family protects. the person.
Moreover, if Tianya really agrees, I have no opinion. "Valley
Chu Mo originally didn't want Tianya, a half-step god, to stay by his side. It was too dangerous, and the opponent was powerful. If he really discovered his biggest secret, it would definitely not be worth the loss for Chu Mo. Therefore, if the Li family can convince Tianya, as the patron saint of their family, Chu Mo will definitely not object.
Zhan Bingxue, who was beside him, seemed to want to say something, but at this time, the elevator door opened again, and then Li Hongda, the eldest son of the Li family, slowly walked towards this side.
Chu Mo waved to the waiter beside him. After taking two glasses of red wine from the other side, he handed one to Li Hongda and said with a smile:
"Brother Hongda, your band hasn't shown up for a long time recently. I remember that when you met at the Prince Gong's Mansion in the capital, your biggest wish was to make the whole band famous with your own strength!"
A year ago, Chu Mo was invited to the capital by Yang Shu, the third young master of the Yang family. Yang Shulin invited Chu Mo to visit one of the Yang family's properties, Prince Gong's Mansion. At that time, Li Hongda, the eldest young master of the Li family, was also invited. At that time, Li Hongda His mind is full of his own music, and he has no interest in inheriting the family business.
Chu Mo's words fell, and a look of helplessness flashed in the eyes of the handsome man opposite. He gently shook the goblet in his hand, and then said lightly:
"Young and frivolous! At first, I dreamed of conquering everyone with my own strength, so I formed a band, but later, no matter what program I participated in, I could easily win the championship.
The band also released a few records, and the results were also very popular with the help of people with a heart. However, later, the members of the band seemed to have forgotten their original intentions, and they began to become inflated and selfish, even for a little profit. Big hit.
In this small band, I can see through the complexities of people's hearts, and then left... As for now, it is natural to go home to inherit the family property, and live the most hated way before. "
Li Hongda raised his glass to Chu Mo, and after the two clinked glasses, he suddenly said:
"By the way, what happened to the female star I met last time at Xiangjiang Long's house?"
Chu Mo naturally knew who he was talking about. A year ago, Chu Mo was invited to be a guest at the Long family, but at that time, his status was not high, so he was placed with the heirs of the eight major families. Later, because of a beautiful star, There was a conflict with Liu Mingfei, the eldest young master of the Liu family in Zhongzhou, one of the eight major families.
Li Hongda naturally knew that, with the characters of the big boys, even if they couldn't trouble Chu Mo, they would definitely retaliate against the female star afterwards, but he didn't care about it at that time, so he didn't pay too much attention.
Chu Mo breathed lightly, he smiled and said:
"I can't believe that Li Shao still remembers that incident, don't worry, I have made a proper arrangement for that female star, and with the protection of Shiyuan Entertainment, the Liu family still does not dare to mess around. Long Shao came over some time ago, and I have seen that female star in person. As for female stars, the two sides have reconciled."
Chu Mo's expression was calm, and Li Hongda nodded slightly. He didn't ask any more questions, but took two steps to the huge French window, tasting the wine in his hand, and looking at the bustling city under his feet.
After a moment of silence, Li Hongda suddenly turned around. He looked straight at Chu Mo's eyes, and then said with a little doubt:
"Young Master Chu, do you remember the bodyguard by my side when we met a few times?"
Hearing this, Chu Mo narrowed his eyes slightly, and then the image of Chu, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man, appeared in his mind.
Chu Mo remembered that when he met Li Hongda before, he had indeed been accompanied by a simple and honest middle-aged man. At that time, Jiang Tao once told Chu Mo that although the other party looked like an ordinary person, he was at least half-strength as a grandmaster. Chu Mo also paid special attention.
Seeing Chu Mo nod, Li Hongda continued:
"I didn't know that Young Master Chu was very powerful before, even Uncle Li said that he was wrong, but I heard that Young Master Chu has helped some people improve their strength recently. If possible, I wonder if Young Master Chu can do me a favor...! "
Li Hongda is full of seriousness. As the eldest son of the Li family, he rarely asks for help as he is now, but Uncle Li grew up watching him since he was a child, and he is considered his closest relative. Unknown secrets, Li Hongda is willing to share with Uncle Li. Naturally, Li Hongda is also willing to lower his profile for the other party.
Chu Mo narrowed his eyes slightly. He helped Jiang Dingnan and Hua Zhenyu break through the barrier of the sky, not by himself, but by the merits of Shaolin's treasured relic. Chu Mo is just an ordinary person, and he has no spiritual energy. He is still self-aware of this innate qi.
And now, the relic has stayed in Shaolin, and without the relic, what can he do to help others break through.
Therefore, in the face of Li Hongda's request, Chu Mo could only remain silent.
Li Hongda saw that Chu Mo did not agree, and a little disappointment flashed in his eyes, but after all, the other party was the heir cultivated by the Li family, and his temperament was by no means ordinary. Li Hongda sighed:
"It's what I hoped for."
Chu Mo gently shook the red wine in his hand again, and at this moment, he suddenly found that a drop of bright red liquid in his wine glass actually floated in the air. Tianya, which should be on the top observation deck, suddenly appeared in front of him out of thin air.
The scarlet liquid floating in the glass kept spinning rapidly, just as Chu Mo narrowed his eyes, two figures appeared out of thin air on the sofa opposite, and when he saw that person, Chu Mo sighed deeply.
The person who appeared on the opposite side was none other than the eldest Miss Xue family, Xue Yulu, who had appeared in front of him before.
As predicted by Chu Mo, when she saw herself again, the eldest lady of the Xue family began to tremble slightly because of the seeds of fear buried in her heart. Although her face was still covered with a veil, there was a look of fear in her eyes. But it didn't cut it by half.
Chu Mo's line of sight went directly past Miss Xue's family, and finally placed it on an elegant middle-aged man beside him. As the two looked at each other, the goblet in Chu Mo's hand burst suddenly, and in an instant, the cup was scarlet. liquid spilled into the air.
It's just unbelievable that the scarlet liquid did not spill, but floated in the air very strangely.
At Chu Mo's side, Tian Ya's expression changed slightly, he took a deep breath, then lowered his head slightly and said:
"Junior Tianya, meet Senior Xue!"
