nion of him or lessen the skepticism she had towards him.For, this statement about the youth has already been made long ago!!"Sir... Everyone noticed that, previously someone mentioned it, saying ther...Chapter 303 The Meaning of Life 1
Xiaoyao smiled. He understood why this was happening because the rapid expansion of Mo Family's power had caused some people to become arrogant as well, even a stable boy could display arrogance, which showed that Mo Family had been doing very well recently.
Regarding this, Xiaoyao didn't have much to say. It was quite normal and he couldn't change it anyway; no one would listen if he did speak up. Such an attitude wouldn't be affected by even the King of Tianfeng, only Mo Family's head or after they received a lesson.
What Xiaoyao found interesting was that Nan Gong Family seemed very low-key, excessively so!
With Nan Gong Family's strength, it would surpass Mo Family regardless if the latter were powerful. Plus, there was one more crucial point: Mo Family’s power came from their eldest daughter, but don't forget that Nangong Susu held a position and strength equal to the eldest daughter.
In other words, even without the support of the main family, Nan Gong Family would be enough to rival Mo Family. Moreover, Nan Gong Family also had Miss San from Nan Gong as well, which made them much stronger than Mo Family.
Currently, Mo Family was very arrogant while Nan Gong Family remained extremely low-key, a stark contrast that was quite ironic. However, the members of Mo Family didn't see it this way; they only saw Nan Gong Family's tolerance and restraint, thus becoming even more proud.
A metaphor might be closer to the truth: currently, Mo Family was like nouveau riche showing off their wealth while Nan Gong Family was a family with deep-rooted heritage.
However, Xiaoyao felt that it wasn't necessary for Nan Gong Family to be so low-key; could there be something going on between them
Xiaoyao didn’t ponder over this and wouldn't until he asked Nangong Susu later. There was no point in thinking too much about unnecessary matters, the most important thing now was his own affairs.
Without any conversation along the way, they arrived at Mo Family. Although the atmosphere wasn't great, nothing had happened, which could be considered fortunate.
"You're here"
"Yes, I'm here."
This was Xiaoyao's dialogue with Mo Family’s head when he met him. He did bow as a sign of respect but only gave the standard greeting and didn't perform any grand gestures because he wasn’t part of Mo Family anymore.
However, this behavior made some people nearby very uncomfortable and also caused a frown on the face of Mo Family’s head who was displeased with it.
Might not be as arrogant as others, but for someone like Xiaoyao who used to be his servant, now showing an equal sign of respect, especially when he was just a minor figure, made him somewhat unhappy. Even though the meeting had been arranged by Mo Family’s head, Xiaoyao wasn't treated as an important person; this lack of respect annoyed the recently successful head of Mo Family.
But he didn’t take it to heart, not because of his broad-mindedness but because he could soon make Xiaoyao face consequences.
"I think you're very busy, so let's get straight to the point. Could you tell me about finding me Please be detailed as well; I believe that with your capability, there’s no chance of forgetting it," Xiaoyao said directly without wasting time. He also felt uncomfortable in such an environment and wanted to hurry up.
Was this Mo Family's head’s recent habit or was the setting too grand There were guards stationed both in the room and nearby, relatively strong ones at that.
This seemed like a trap against someone!
To whom Xiaoyao didn't overthink it because he believed such an arrangement wouldn’t be aimed at him. He hadn’t offended Mo Family; even if he had, there was no need to set up such a grand scene.
Plus, this might just be for show!
"Although I don't remember clearly now, telling you isn't an issue. Let's consider it your last request," the head of Mo Family said calmly.
Last request What did that mean
Xiaoyao was puzzled by this phrase but didn’t ask out loud, assuming it meant this was their final meeting and he only wanted to know what happened back then, leaving everything else aside.
"When I found you, it was near Dongou’s East Sea City. You were on a barren hillside; I can't recall the exact location but there's a village nearby called Xiaocun," Mo Family’s head said.
"Was there any clue around me back then" Xiaoyao asked.
"No, except for that jade pendant you had." The head of Mo Family replied.
"Were there any signs of a fight on the ground" Xiaoyao inquired further.
"No, no sign at all. Not even footprints; it seemed like you appeared out of nowhere. Yet your location was easily noticeable by passersby. It seems that your parents abandoned you but didn't want to see you die," Mo Family’s head said.
Indeed, it was still worthless. These things were actually known through some people who were present back then. Some of the details had also been asked before. He knew this best in his heart but he still wanted to try.
"What about my clothes at that time," Freedom asked. Apart from seeing "Jade", there were other remnants such as clothing, but he didn't see them because someone carelessly threw it away early.
There are a lot of different accounts regarding the clothes. Some people said they were white, some yellow, some linen, and some cotton, etc., this being the most inconsistent account since few would remember what an unrelated child was wearing. However, one thing is for sure, it was very ordinary clothing, something that anyone could see everywhere made from common cloth.
"It's a light yellow cotton jacket without any marks or signs on it. You don't need to think too much about this as there are many of such jackets in the East European Kingdom and I can’t pinpoint which place they come from, so there’s no clue."
Freedom continued to ask several questions next since these were all hopes that couldn't be ignored; it was just a matter of opening his mouth.
"Thank you for your busy schedule and taking the time to answer my doubts. I will take my leave now," Freedom bowed, preparing to leave.
"Since you've come, don’t leave yet, stay here." The family head said indifferently; it was unclear what he wanted to do.
"Stay No need for such politeness. I have matters elsewhere and won't be a bother," Freedom replied with a smile.
“Ha ha…”
The people nearby laughed at this moment, as if they were looking at an idiot. That’s right; in their eyes, the current Freedom was a laughable fool.
"Hahaha…"
Freedom also started laughing, which made the Mohist family stop laughing abruptly. They didn't understand what Freedom was laughing about, making them somewhat confused.
"What are you laughing at" The head of the Mohist family was stunned by Freedom's laughter.
Freedom smiled and looked meaningfully at the head of the Mohist family before asking in return, "And why do you all laugh"
The question made them think that this fool was laughing along with them; just a mindless chuckle. This led to them looking down on Freedom even more, showing disdainful sneers.
"We’re laughing at how silly you are. We didn't expect it to be even sillier than we imagined. The situation is very clear right now; there's no way for you to leave," someone said while smiling. Freedom seemed to recognize this person.
“Lin Yi How did you end up here, oh right, you weren’t chosen back then so you had to go home,” Freedom looked at the man who was Lin Yi, whom he had encountered a few times before and with whom he had some unpleasant exchanges.
The statement from Freedom clearly provoked Lin Yi since it hit his pain point. Among all members of the Mohist family who participated back then, he believed himself to be the most outstanding but only he was eliminated.
Although the Third Young Master of the Mohist Family wasn't as strong-willed as Lady Mo, the sect they belonged to wasn’t bad and his current progress in strength far surpassed Lin Yi’s. The distance between them would only keep growing wider.
Lately, because of the Mohist Family's prominence, Lin Yi's value had risen but no matter how high it was, nothing compared to real power. Furthermore, such identity wasn't as practical as joining those sects.
For this failure, instead of reflecting on himself, he blamed others. He thought that without Lone Star, Mo Yu, or the Third Young Master, he would succeed!
The success of these three individuals was partly due to Freedom's involvement; therefore, he held a great grudge against him.
At the same time, although he felt that Freedom had helped others, like everyone else, he thought that there wasn’t much to him and looked down on him as an insignificant person who could be manipulated at will.
"I didn't get selected indeed, but I'm still a Young Master of the Mohist Family. You're merely a servant boy kicked out by our family, one who'll die today," Lin Yi suppressed his anger and said coldly.
“Die today This isn’t certain. Although I’m not that type of person with longevity, neither am I short-lived. It looks like you’re the short-lived one; within three years, you’ll definitely face blood disasters,” Freedom said with a smile, appearing calm and collected.
In others' eyes, it seemed he was unaware of his dire situation right to the very end!
"You don’t cry until you see a coffin. Do you know what your current situation is You definitely don't," Lin Yi sneered coldly with obvious mockery on his face.
Freedom smiled and calmly said, "Of course I do!"
"You know What do you know, do you think we’re keeping you as a guest" Lin Yi still had that mocking look, looking at Freedom with pity in his eyes for him.
"If it was before, perhaps. But now, the circumstances are different," Freedom glanced around and slowly said.repared his own cup to receive it, but instead, Big Miss genuinely walked towards逍遙and came before him."Miss Young, are you challenging me to a drinking contest I won't waste the alcohol for that."Loo...
