761: Xiaohong is about to cry

“…”

Hearing this, Qian Shengxin's heart uncontrollably surged with anger, wanting to curse out loud.

No matter how much he admired Chen Mo, no matter if he was willing to die for Chen Mo.

But… Xiao Hong was the goddess he had pursued for hundreds of thousands of years.

It was bad enough that Chen Mo didn't help him, but he even wanted to sever his marriage ties.

Qian Shengxin looked at the indifferent Chen Mo, feeling an incomparable chill in his heart.

He recalled that when Chen Mo first joined the Star God Sect, he was attacked by many heaven's chosen and suppressed by elders, and it was he who stepped forward to protect Chen Mo.

He didn't know how many times he had saved Chen Mo.

If it weren't for him, Chen Mo, no matter how monstrous his talent, would have been refined into ashes in Purgatory.

Chen Mo, on the other hand, after breaking through to the Celestial Realm, although he still treated him as a brother, he was unwilling to help him even a little.

As for Chen Mo saying it was inappropriate, Qian Shengxin scoffed; don't think he didn't know Chen Mo's thoughts.

Although Chen Mo always said he didn't like Xiao Hong, he was certain that Chen Mo was just unwilling to lose face and openly pursue Xiao Hong.

Chen Mo coming to find Xiao Hong immediately after returning was the best proof.

It was just that Xiao Hong also didn't pay attention to Chen Mo.

“Brother Mo is joking, I think Ling Xue is very good.”

Xiao Hong's real name was Ling Xue.

Qian Shengxin forced a strained smile on his chubby face; he was only a God Emperor Sixth Stage Consummation and dared not fall out with Chen Mo.

“Xinzi, I’m doing this for your own good. Xiao Hong is truly not suitable for you,” Chen Mo said, frowning in persuasion.

Xiao Hong was greedy for profit, and her thoughts were deep—she was definitely not a good match.

He truly considered Qian Shengxin a brother through thick and thin, and he was afraid that Qian Shengxin would waste his time on Xiao Hong in vain, losing both his wife and his army, which was why he advised Qian Shengxin.

If it were anyone else, Chen Mo would never say another word.

He had always been someone who didn't like to meddle in others' affairs; others' lives and deaths were none of his concern.

“Hahaha, let's not talk about this. Come on, let's go to Shishen Restaurant to welcome Brother Mo.”

Qian Shengxin laughed it off.

Xiao Hong was beautiful and intelligent; he could not possibly give up on Xiao Hong.

“Alright!”

Chen Mo saw his expression and knew he hadn't given up, and his face looked a little displeased.

His good intentions were actually taken by Qian Shengxin as ill will.

Since Qian Shengxin was actively seeking trouble, if he regretted it later, he shouldn't blame him, his brother, for not warning him.

Chen Mo glanced at Xiao Hong’s cave dwelling, feeling helpless in his heart.

Waiting like this was not a solution; he needed to find someone to search for Xiao Hong’s whereabouts.

“Xinzi, I suspect something has happened to Xiao Hong. Can you arrange for someone to search for her whereabouts?” Chen Mo said as he walked, his tone subtly revealing worry.

“Ah? With Brother Mo’s Celestial cultivation, can’t he detect her whereabouts?” Qian Shengxin asked, puzzled.

“Her heavenly secrets have been shielded by someone.”

“Then… is it possible that Fairy Ling Xue just left Wanxing City to gain experience?”

“Impossible.”

In such a short time, Xiao Hong couldn't have escaped his divine sense perception.

Xiao Hong was definitely still in Wanxing City, but her aura had been shielded by a powerful expert, so he couldn't sense her.

“Okay!”

Hearing this, Qian Shengxin didn't believe a single word, scoffing in his heart. So eager to find Xiao Hong, and he still says he doesn't like Xiao Hong?

However, Chen Mo was not who he used to be; although he had no foundation in the sect, his cultivation was there. If he didn't agree, Chen Mo would find someone else.

Qian Shengxin made up his mind to just send people to go through the motions. Even if they found Xiao Hong, he wouldn't tell Chen Mo.

What he didn't expect was that as soon as they arrived at the entrance of Shishen Restaurant, they ran into Xiao Hong face to face.

“Fairy Ling Xue.”

Qian Shengxin’s small eyes widened.

Xiao Hong’s faint smile froze, she secretly thought, “What bad luck,” and her heart felt heavy.

She didn't believe it was such a coincidence that she would run into them both just by coming to pack some food and wine for Gu Qing.

It must be that scoundrel Chen Mo, unable to find her, had Qian Shengxin search for her whereabouts.

Thinking this, Xiao Hong’s face once again showed a brilliant smile, and she asked, “May I ask what business you two have with me?”

“No, Fairy Ling Xue, please don’t misunderstand. We absolutely weren’t following you; it was just a coincidence.”

Qian Shengxin’s expression changed, and he quickly waved his hands in denial.

“Enough!”

Chen Mo couldn't bear to watch his good brother act like such a sycophant, so he interrupted him, his gaze deep, and he said lightly, “Xiao Hong, he didn't make things difficult for you, did he?”

“?”

Xiao Hong’s delicate brows furrowed, feeling bewildered. She was fine, who would make things difficult for her? How did she not know herself?

“What does Senior Chen mean by that?” Xiao Hong asked, puzzled.

“Heh, you know who I’m talking about in your heart,” Chen Mo said with a cold sneer on his lips.

Xiao Hong was even more confused, but she didn’t dare to argue with a Celestial, so she chuckled, “I’m doing very well, thank you for your concern, Senior Chen.”

“What Senior? You are still the same as before, just call me fellow Daoist.”

Chen Mo said indifferently. Although he had fallen out with Xiao Hong, he was not a petty person; anyway, he hadn't suffered any loss.

All of Xiao Hong's schemes had been thwarted by him one by one, not allowing Xiao Hong to gain any advantage from him.

“I wouldn’t dare!”

The past was the past, and now was now.

How could Xiao Hong dare to consider herself an equal to a Celestial?

Chen Mo frowned, feeling a bit tricky.

Xiao Hong was unwilling to cooperate. Even if he wanted to help Xiao Hong against Gu Qing, he had no reason to.

After all, he wasn't a sycophant like Qian Shengxin, eagerly trying to please Xiao Hong.

But if Xiao Hong didn't say anything, how would he know how Gu Qing planned to scheme against him?

Moreover, Chen Mo always believed in 'live and let live.' If Gu Qing didn't provoke him, he couldn't just attack Gu Qing for no reason, could he?

The more Chen Mo thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt.

He always felt that something was amiss; things shouldn't be developing this way.

“Senior Chen, I have other matters, I’ll take my leave first.”

“Wait!”

Chen Mo asked, unwilling to give up, “Did he really not make things difficult for you?”

Xiao Hong: “…”

Who exactly are you talking about when you say 'he'?

“No!”

Xiao Hong indeed replied.

No matter who it was, Xiao Hong was too lazy to ask; she really didn't want to get entangled with Chen Mo anymore and just wanted to leave quickly.

“Heh!”

“I understand.”

Seeing her firm attitude, Chen Mo seemed to have thought of something, and a self-mocking smile appeared on his face.

With Xiao Hong's mercenary nature, how could she give up the opportunity to curry favor with Gu Qing?

It was also his fault, always remembering their past friendship, and for a moment forgetting Xiao Hong's true nature, actually still thinking of helping Xiao Hong solve her troubles. It turned out everything was his own wishful thinking.

What do you understand?

Lunatic.

Xiao Hong felt a little suffocated and quickened her pace.

“Wait!”

“…”

What's wrong with you again?

Xiao Hong forced a smile on her face: “What else can I do for you, Senior Chen?”

Chen Mo’s gaze turned cold. Since Xiao Hong had chosen Gu Qing, she was his enemy.

He never showed mercy to enemies.

However, the most urgent task was to first obtain an invitation to the trade fair.

Chen Mo stood with his hands behind his back and said lightly, “I want an invitation to the trade fair. Do you have one?”

“No!”

“…”

Chen Mo’s deliberately created indifferent expression almost couldn't hold, and he felt stifled inside. Since returning to Wanxing City, everything had been going wrong.

“Impossible, you definitely have one,” Chen Mo said with certainty in his tone. He deeply trusted his intuition.

It was precisely because of this intuition in the dark that it had saved him countless times and also allowed him to acquire countless treasures.

“I really don’t have one.”

Xiao Hong was almost in tears.

After she latched onto Gu Qing's thigh, she wholeheartedly focused on how to be a thoughtful little cotton-padded jacket and serve her godfather comfortably.

How could she still have the thought to be a scalper?
