It was noon and the sun was high in the sky.
Li Mo was bare-chested in front of a house, his back drenched in sweat from the blazing sun.
Lan Shan approached Li Mo from afar and bowed.
"Captain Li Mo, second young master requests your presence."
Lan Shan was confused as he watched Li Mo's back.
Lan Shan didn't know what was going on either. First young master Bao Yong had fallen from power and second young master was at the peak of his power, the next tribe leader.
So many people in the tribe, including the Wei tribesmen who didn't support second young master, came to curry favor with him.
But second young master's savior, Li Mo, was hiding in the corner.
"Got it."
Li Mo answered blandly and continued his practice.
Seeing Li Mo still practicing, Lan Shan wanted to say something but stopped himself.
But he could sense that Li Mo and second young master weren't on good terms, so Lan Shan didn't say anything else.
It didn't take long for Li Mo to finish a set of moves.
Li Mo wiped the sweat off his face and said to Lan Shan.
"Let's go."
'Oh my god, this young master is finally done!'
Lan Shan answered in excitement.
"Got it!"
Li Mo and Lan Shan went to second young master Bao Zheng's house.
Even from a distance, Li Mo could smell the aroma of wine. It was strong, but mellow and tasty. Mose's wine couldn't compare.
Bao Zheng's wine was good, but Li Mo didn't want to drink it.
But Bao Zheng hadn't come looking for Li Mo for so many days. Now that he came, Li Mo wanted to see what he wanted.
The door to Bao Zheng's house was wide open and three people were drinking inside.
Two of them were Bao Zheng and Bao Qing, while the third left Li Mo shocked.
Because it was none other than one of Bao Yong's right-hand men, Wei Hu.
Li Mo now knew why the Body Tempering Liquid had problems.
The Body Tempering Liquid never had any problems, so Bao Yong didn't care too much about it.
This gave Bao Yong's right-hand man, Wei Hu, a chance. But what Li Mo didn't understand was why the Wei tribesmen supported Bao Yong.
Because of Bao Yong's matter, the Wei tribesmen and Bao Zheng became enemies.
Could it be that everything before was just a ruse?
Or did Wei Hu betray the Wei clan and seek refuge with Bao Zheng?
While Li Mo was pondering Wei Hu's matter, Bao Zheng saw Li Mo through the door.
Bao Zheng couldn't help but smile, completely forgetting about his previous unhappiness.
"Li Mo, come eat, ha-ha."
It was still that hypocritical smile. Li Mo felt sick at the sight of it!
So Li Mo frowned, but still went in.
"Come, sit. This is Wei Hu. You should know him."
Bao Zheng patted the empty stone stool beside him and said. Wei Hu sat on the right of Bao Zheng.
The one to Bao Zheng's left was empty. Not even Bao Qing had the right to sit there, showing how much Bao Zheng valued Li Mo.
But after witnessing Bao Zheng's hypocrisy, there was nothing Bao Zheng could do to make Li Mo feel grateful.
On the contrary, Li Mo felt disgusted.
"I'm not hungry."
Li Mo stood at the door as he spoke.
"Li Mo!
I gave you face, didn't I?
Second Young Master is treating you to a meal, what kind of attitude is this! "
Bao Qing took the chance to scold Li Mo.
Bao Qing was already dissatisfied with the seat, so he decided to kick Li Mo when he was down.
Even Bao Zheng and Wei Hu quietened down. For a moment, the atmosphere in the room was cold to the extreme.
Even Blue Mountain, the guard at the door, felt the pressure and broke out in a cold sweat.
"Li Mo, sit!"
Bao Zheng continued, but this time it wasn't a request, but an order!
'You are my subordinate and I order you to sit!'
Li Mo frowned, but still sat.
But Li Mo sat close to the door, keeping some distance from Bao Zheng.
Bao Zheng picked up his wine glass as a look of displeasure flashed across his eyes.
Bao Zheng brought the cup to Wei Hu and squeezed out a smile.
"It's all thanks to brother Wei Hu. Although my father arranged for many people to speak up for Bao Yong, we achieved our goal.
If Bao Yong doesn't know what's good for him, I won't mind playing him to death. "
Bao Zheng's words made Li Mo understand why so many people spoke up for Bao Yong that day.
So it wasn't Bao Yong's doing, but something Bao couldn't.
Come to think of it, Bao Yong's brain only knew how to fight and kill. How could he have known these things?
Li Mo sneered inwardly at Bao Zheng's words.
"It's a true inheritance. Bao Zheng used this method to put Bao Yong to death, while Bao Wuzhi used the same method to save Bao Yong."
Bao Zheng waited in the air with his cup in hand. Wei Hu's face was ugly.
Wei Hu's heart was in turmoil, but he still raised his cup and clinked it with Bao Zheng.
"That's more like it.
Old pal Wei Hu, eldest young master is done for. You should follow second young master from now on. "
Bao Qing said with a carefree smile. Then, he and Bao Zheng drank the wine together.
Li Mo was the only one at the table, not eating a single bite or drinking a single mouthful of wine.
"There's no need. I only came today to ask second young master. It's been so many days and you still haven't released my daughter."
Wei Hu asked Bao Zheng as he held the empty one in his hand.
Bao Zheng kidnapped Wei Hu's daughter and made him work for him.
Bao Zheng wasn't the least bit surprised at Wei Hu's refusal.
As if Bao Zheng knew Wei Hu wouldn't comply. Bao Zheng glowered at Bao Qing and roared.
"What are you doing?
How many times have I told you to bring brother Wei Hu's daughter out to play for a few days and then bring her back?
It's been so many days and you still haven't brought her back?
Don't you know how worried her parents are? "
"He-he, I was too busy and forgot.
I'm sorry, brother Ha Wei Hu. I'll bring her back in a bit. "
Bao Qing scratched his head, trying to play dumb.
"You took Lian 'er outside!
No wonder I couldn't find her after searching for so long. Second young master is so scheming! "
Wei Hu said with furrowed brows. He really hated Bao Zheng and Bao Qing for his daughter's kidnapping.
"You're smart enough to know to search in secret.
If you asked the tribe's elders or Bao Yong for help, your daughter might not come back.
I'll tell you the truth, I won't be afraid even if you tell them I kidnapped Lian 'er.
Here in the tribe, I have a good reputation. No one will believe your words … "
Bao Zheng picked up a mouthful of food and spoke plainly.
Li Mo felt pity for Wei Hu as he watched all of this.
"Since second young master agreed to bring my daughter back, then I'm fine. I'll be going."
Wei Hu didn't want to stay at Bao Zheng's place any longer, so he put down his wine glass and stood up.
