Eternal Life by Daily Divination-Chapter 204 - 174: Looted Clean, the Reason for Betraying the Clan

Chapter 204: Chapter 174: Looted Clean, the Reason for Betraying the Clan

He gave it a quick scan and confirmed it was indeed a Puppetry Skill inheritance, but the Tier of this inheritance wasn’t very high.

It was only Tier Two Low Grade.

Li Chang’an frowned and looked at Mo Feng.

"Daoist Mo, why is it only Tier Two Low Grade? Is this the complete inheritance you have?"

Hearing this, Mo Feng gave a bitter smile and immediately explained.

"Daoist Li, if the Tier were any higher, do you think my sister and I would have survived this long?"

"That’s true."

Li Chang’an nodded slightly.

The Mo Family placed great importance on their family’s inheritance and did not allow its members to leak it.

If the inheritance Mo Feng possessed were of a higher Tier, the Mo Family would have most likely sent someone to kill him long ago.

’Even though it’s only Tier Two Low Grade, it’s good enough for now. After I reach Foundation Establishment, I’ll find a way to get a better inheritance.’

Li Chang’an withdrew his Divine Sense and tossed the Jade Scroll into his Storage Pouch.

Mo Feng suddenly asked, "Daoist Li, my younger sister is too unruly and has clashed with you many times before. I wonder if you could let the matter go?"

"Oh?"

Li Chang’an’s gaze was cold as he glanced at Mo Wanwan, who was behind Mo Feng.

Mo Wanwan immediately trembled, keeping her head bowed low. Her heart was filled with extreme fear, and she didn’t dare look at him at all.

She had originally thought that Li Chang’an didn’t possess any Foundation Establishment Techniques. No matter how great the conflict between them, her brother’s Tier Two Puppet could protect her.

But this time, Li Chang’an had actually managed to rescue them from the hands of numerous Mo Family disciples.

This meant that he must possess a method capable of countering a Tier Two Puppet!

"Sister, hurry and apologize to Daoist Li."

Mo Feng grabbed her arm and pulled her in front of Li Chang’an.

Mo Wanwan’s face was full of fear, and her voice trembled.

"El... Elder Li, this junior was blind and offended you before. I beg you not to take it to heart."

She didn’t even dare to call him "Daoist" anymore, only daring to address him as "Elder."

Her attitude was extremely humble.

But Li Chang’an said coldly, "If apologies were useful, there wouldn’t be so much killing in this world."

As soon as he said this, the color drained from Mo Wanwan’s face.

Mo Feng’s expression also changed.

He hurriedly declared, "Daoist Li, as long as you’re willing to spare my sister, I’ll do anything!"

Hearing this, Mo Wanwan was filled with regret.

’If I hadn’t been so arrogant back then, I wouldn’t have provoked Li Chang’an, and my brother wouldn’t have to be humbling himself like this.’

Li Chang’an glanced at Mo Feng and asked, "Has your Puppetry Skill reached Tier Two?"

"Yes!"

"Good. Then help me take a look at this Puppet."

As he spoke, with a thought, Li Chang’an took out Mo Xi’s Puppet from his Storage Pouch.

Seeing this Puppet, Mo Feng’s expression froze, and his eyes widened slightly.

Previously, Li Chang’an had intentionally blocked their senses, so they didn’t know what had actually happened.

He had assumed that Li Chang’an had merely retreated unscathed under the cover of the black mist, without engaging Mo Xi in direct combat.

But now, seeing this, it was clear that Mo Xi had most likely suffered a major loss!

"Daoist Li, your courage is truly extraordinary!"

Mo Feng couldn’t help but say.

Li Chang’an was unfazed; he had merely helped himself to something along the way.

He patted the Tier Two Puppet and asked, "Daoist Mo, this Puppet is a Treasure of your Mo Family. I suspect the Mo Family can sense its presence."

His suspicion was not without basis.

Back then, he had obtained a Shadow-Chasing Puppet from Zheng Jinbao.

That Puppet was very peculiar. With his Puppetry Skill at the time, he couldn’t completely control it.

Later, when talking with Zheng Qingqing, he found out that a special "Blood Contract" had been added to the Puppet during its creation, which was equivalent to the Puppet signing a contract with the Zheng Family bloodline.

Only Cultivators of the Zheng Family bloodline could control it.

If even the Zheng Family had such methods, then it was impossible for the Mo Family, who were famous for their Puppets, not to have them as well.

"Daoist Li, you’ve guessed correctly. The Mo Family does indeed have a way to sense this Puppet."

Mo Feng spoke frankly.

Even if Li Chang’an had obtained this Puppet, he wouldn’t be able to use it.

If he kept it in his possession, it would surely bring a fatal disaster upon him!

Before long, the many Elders of the Mo Family would follow the connection, kill Li Chang’an, and then retrieve the Puppet.

If Li Chang’an proved too difficult to handle, the Mo Family might even use that Tier Three Puppet against him!

After he finished speaking, Li Chang’an frowned and asked again, "Daoist Mo, you’re a member of the Mo Family. Is there a way to erase this connection?"

Mo Feng shook his head and sighed, "I can’t. It’s a Mo Family secret. Before I betrayed the family, I only had access to a very small part of it."

"You really can’t?"

Li Chang’an stared at him, his expression turning hostile.

"If that’s the case, then why do you dare to keep that Tier Two Puppet? Aren’t you afraid the Mo Family will sense it?"

"Daoist Li, every word I say is true! I would never lie to you!"

Mo Feng hurriedly explained.

The reason he dared to keep the Tier Two Puppet was because it had been left to him by his father.

His father had been a Foundation Establishment Elder of the Mo Family. He had used materials he had accumulated over many years to specially craft this Puppet for him and his sister.

This Puppet could not be sensed by the Mo Family, and only he and his sister could control it.

After explaining, Mo Feng, worried that Li Chang’an wouldn’t believe him, immediately swore an oath on his Dao Heart.

"Daoist Li, if I have deceived you in the slightest, may I die a terrible death!"

"Fine."

Li Chang’an no longer questioned him. After all, an oath on one’s Dao Heart could not be faked.

He asked again, "Daoist Mo, did your father never privately teach you a way to erase the connection?"

"No."

Mo Feng sighed, his face tinged with bitterness.

"My father strictly abided by the family rules. He spent his entire life sacrificing for the family. In the end, he died in battle inside a Secret Realm while helping the Young Miss, Mo Qingxue, seize a Treasure. He barely had any time to teach my sister and me."
