132: Layout, staring at the Liang family

Qingyu City, Mo Sect Base.

Shen Mo arrived here after sending off the people from the Martial Arts Education Department.

He was wearing the mask he had prepared for Tang Long earlier.

Tang Long, having already returned to his original appearance, stood respectfully by his side.

"Master, these are the various power maps of Mo Sect's expansion in Northwest Province during this period, as well as some controlled organizations in Qingyu City."

Tang Long handed all the information in his hands to Shen Mo.

During this time, Shen Mo entrusted Mo Sect to him, and he quickly made appropriate arrangements.

Especially after connecting with the Liang Family, Mo Sect's development accelerated even more.

Tang Long was not an ordinary power leader after all; he was a Tian Ling Realm expert!

In many power disputes, as soon as he made a move, there were basically no problems.

Qingyu City was slowly being infiltrated and managed by Mo Sect.

It could be said that among most of Qingyu City's hidden forces, Mo Sect's power was the strongest.

And the other legitimate forces were also extremely cautious and wary of Mo Sect's existence.

Both sides were in a state of extreme balance.

However, without Shen Mo's command, Tang Long did not continue to expand.

After all, Shen Mo's command was to control the forces of most cities in Northwest Province, not to dominate alone.

Sometimes, the nail that sticks out gets hammered down.

It could be said that Tang Long's actions lowered the vigilance of many forces.

Otherwise, given Mo Sect's current expansion rate, many people would have come to cause them trouble.

And those people would not allow Mo Sect to continue expanding in an uncontrolled manner.

At that time, Shen Mo, Tang Long, and Mo Sect would be completely exposed.

Shen Mo would not let this happen.

He only needed to ensure a certain degree of control over these cities.

He didn't necessarily have to be the boss.

Therefore, after expanding to a certain point, Tang Long and the others stopped.

And Tang Long and the others stopping made the other old forces even more relieved.

At this moment, Mo Sect was considered fully integrated into the Northwest Province circle, becoming a significant force recognized by everyone.

At this moment, what Tang Long showed Shen Mo was Mo Sect's recent series of power expansions and personnel changes, as well as resource allocation and acquisition, and so on.

As a first-class force, Mo Sect could not be without its own resource flow, personnel arrangements, etc., as well as power divisions and various affairs.

However, Tang Long and others would worry about these things; Shen Mo only needed to look at the organized information and understand it.

"Hmm."

"Once we have absorbed and digested enough, send a small team to expand externally," Shen Mo said.

Northwest Province was never his only goal.

"Yes," Tang Long replied.

"Don't attract others' attention."

Shen Mo still had this requirement.

It was not yet time to fully reveal his cards.

"Also, take these things and distribute them."

Shen Mo gave Tang Long some of the Blood Recovery Pills and Nine Revolutions Breakthrough Pills he had exchanged from the System Shop.

Of course, Tang Long only had one Nine Revolutions Breakthrough Pill; at critical moments, he would still need him to exert himself.

Tang Long nodded respectfully and quickly put away the pills with a deferential expression, without any intention of refusing.

They were originally Shen Mo's people, in life and in death; therefore, there was no need to decline.

Their strength was Shen Mo's strength.

Shen Mo also handed the Art of War Array Diagram to Tang Long.

It had no use for him, but giving it to Tang Long might have a surprisingly good effect.

As Tang Long put these things away, he suddenly remembered something and immediately said, "Oh, right, Master, there is one thing that needs to be reported to you this time."

"The people from the Liang Family seem to have their eyes on you."

As his words came out, Shen Mo's brows furrowed slightly, and he asked, "Are they eyeing me, or are they eyeing the identity of Shen Mo?"

If they were eyeing him, then they were eyeing the identity of Mo Sect's Master.

"Your identity as Shen Mo."

Tang Long respectfully said, "We have investigated and it seems that the people from the Liang Family are investigating something about you."

"And the people from the Wu Department also seem to be secretly investigating the Liang Family."

So, were the people from the Wu Department investigating the Liang Family's affairs, which was then noticed by the Liang Family, who finally traced it back to him?

That didn't quite add up either.

Shen Mo pondered in his heart.

Even without the Wu Department's investigation, the Liang Family would have found him sooner or later.

When he killed Liang Siqi before, Shen Mo knew this day would come, which was why he spared no effort in developing Mo Sect's power.

This way, if anything happened, he wouldn't be completely blind.

As for his wife's power, that would definitely be used.

But that was on the surface.

Underground, his own power was definitely the most reliable.

It was most convenient for doing anything.

As Shen Mo thought this, he immediately asked, "What are their actions? Are they going to make a move?"

If they really intended to make a move, the people from the Liang Family must have really eaten a bear's heart and a leopard's guts.

Are they crazy?

Making a move in Qingyu City, are they afraid they won't die cleanly enough?

How many people were around Shen Mo!

"No."

Tang Long shook his head, "Currently, it seems to be only in a monitoring state, and those who were investigating them have also been monitored."

"Master, do you want to make any preparations?"

As his words came out, Shen Mo's expression was playful.

"What preparations?"

"No need, if they want to come, let them come!"

Shen Mo was just worried about having no one to deal with; it would be best if the people from the Liang Family made a move themselves.

Otherwise, if he were to be the first to charge into the Liang Family, he would probably alarm many people.

Shen Mo did not want Mo Sect's power to attract too much attention.

A sharp blade in its sheath, a hidden dragon in the abyss; it was not yet time to show off its edge.

"Keep an eye on them and see what their movements are."

"Also, pay attention to my wife's side as well."

"See if the people from the Liang Family have any dirty tricks."

Shen Mo's eyes narrowed slightly.

His biggest backer on the surface was Feng Linghuang.

It was hard to say that the Liang Family wouldn't target Feng Linghuang.

However, the other party probably wouldn't have that kind of foundation.

But, paying a little more attention wouldn't hurt.

He liked the feeling of the enemy being in the open and him being in the dark.

"Have people keep a close eye on all the visible people from the Liang Family."

"Also, investigate all their hidden actions thoroughly for me."

"This shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"

Shen Mo's earlier decision to have Tang Long and others enter Qingyu City and take over Luo Fan's forces included the idea of having Tang Long and others build good relations with the Liang Family to gather information.

After all, it was easy to dodge open spears from the enemy, but how could one guard against secret arrows from those close to you?

From the moment he learned that the person he had killed earlier was Liang Siqi, Shen Mo had already begun to lay out his plans.
