Chapter 563: Taking the Initiative

The First Elder’s scalp went numb.
What was the situation?
Was he being followed?
He did not notice it at all!
Also, the Sect Master mentioned… a grandson?
The young master was here?!
As the first batch of trusted aides to follow MO Guiyuan, the First Elder naturally knew about MO Guiyuan’s relationship with the Wei family.
Last time, his sect master even personally let the young sect master go.
After MO Guiyuan said that, the White Lotus Society disciples at the door automatically moved aside. Wei Ting walked in leisurely.
MO Guiyuan revealed a benevolent smile. “1 knew you would come. Go, serve the new peach juice brew this year.”
A disciple agreed and went to the wine cellar to get wine. He also asked the kitchen to cut fruit plates and cold dishes.
There was no one else with such a strange combination. MO Guiyuan placed the dishes in the courtyard.
“Sit,” MO Guiyuan said to Wei Ting.
Wei Ting did not stand on ceremony and walked over to sit down.
The First Elder walked over and planned to sit down.
Wei Ting glanced at him. “Did I let you sit?”
The Great Elder’s expression darkened. He was going to say, “Young brat, I’m an elder of the White Lotus Society no matter what. I’m your elder!”
MO Guiyuan smiled. “First Elder, I’ll talk to my grandson alone for a while.
You’ve worked hard today. Go back and rest first.”
“Yes, Sect Master.”
The First Elder cupped his hands and left.
Before leaving, he did not forget to glare at Wei Ting.
MO Guiyuan personally poured a glass of wine for Wei Ting. “I knew you would come too. You did it to the gold vault, right? Although I don’t know what method you used, so be it. Take it as a greeting gift from me, your grandfather. ”
“What gold? I don’t understand.” Wei Ting pretended to be confused. “If you don’t want to give me a greeting gift, just say it. I won’t laugh at you for being petty.”
MO Guiyuan’s smile faded as he placed the wine pot back on the table. “Little
Seven, everything of Grandpa will be yours in the future.”
Wei Ting hit the nail on the head. “Don’t paint a pancake for me. I don’t like it.”
MO Guiyuan said earnestly, “Little Seven, why are you doing this? Isn’t it good to rule the world with Grandpa? As long as you’re obedient, Grandpa won’t let outsiders take advantage of you. Grandpa’s patience is limited. Don’t exhaust it. Or do you really think you have the ability to compete with Grandpa?”
Wei Ting said calmly, “We’ll know after we try.”
MO Guiyuan smiled. “You really know no fear. Don’t look anymore. Slave Xiu isn’t around. If you want to attack me, come at me. However, before you attack, I have to remind you that that the Old Marquis might not be so lucky.”
Wei Ting was working with the Old Marquis tonight. The two of them secretly followed the First Elder here, and Wei Ting appeared to see MO Guiyuan.
The Old Marquis secretly searched for traces of Slave Xiu to kill him.
MO Guiyuan smiled and said, “I know that you brought someone else, but don’t tell me you think I don’t have any other trump cards by my side? Why don’t we wait for this news? Let’s see if Su Shuo can kill Slave Xiu or if Slave Xiu captures Su Shuo… and Wei Ting alive.”
MO Guiyuan smiled meaningfully. “Do you still want to continue pretending, Wei, Chi, Xiu?”
Yuchi Xiu’s eyebrows twitched.
Damn!
How did this old fellow recognize him?
His disguise technique was superb, and his voice was imitated perfectly… His figure was similar. He had stepped on a few more pairs of insoles!
MO Guiyuan said, “Don’t worry, I won’t kill you.”
Was this a question of whether he could kill him or not? He had been exposed!
MO Guiyuan, the sly old fox, was even more difficult and cunning than he had imagined!
Actually, the three of them’s initial plan was for Wei Ting and the Old Marquis to meet MO Guiyuan, but on the way, they encountered a cultivator practicing his sword technique in the peach forest, so they changed their plan at the last minute.
Hence, Wei Ting and the Old Marquis went to deal with Slave Xiu first. Yuchi Xiu disguised himself as Wei Ting and continued to follow the First Elder to figure out MO Guiyuan’s residence.
‘You didn’t deliberately ask Slave Xiu to wait for us halfway, did you?
Since he had already been recognized, Yuchi Xiu couldn’t be bothered to pretend anymore and restored his voice.
MO Guiyuan smiled. “What do you think?”
Yuchi Xiu clicked his tongue. “Old thing, you won’t even let go of your biological grandson.”
MO Guiyuan said calmly, “Doesn’t he want to go against me? Let him see what he’s capable of so that he can understand that there will never be a good ending for going against me.”
The corners of Yuchi Xiu’s mouth twitched. How could anyone expect him to be humane when he could even use and threaten his own daughter?
“I’m an assassin, but my heart is really not as vicious as yours.”
In the depths of the peach forest, Wei Ting and the old marquis faced Slave Xiu.
Slave Xiu was wearing a bamboo hat and a gray robe. His movement technique was extremely strange, almost fusing with the night.
Every time the Old Marquis felt that he was going to catch him, he would disappear from his sight.
After a few rounds, the Old Marquis was a little mad. “Where did MO Guiyuan get this assassin?”
Wei Ting narrowed his eyes and said, “He’s not an assassin. He’s a death warrior.”
There was no fear of death. The more he fought, the braver he became until the last drop of blood in his body was drained.
Slave Xiu flashed behind Wei Ting and stabbed at him.
Wei Ting grabbed his wrist and stabbed him in the chest.
However, at this moment, a hidden weapon flew over and hit Wei Ting’s sword.
The hidden weapon was wrapped in poisonous powder. Wei Ting frowned and let go of Slave Xiu. He tapped his feet and took a few steps back,
Slave Xiu was already very troublesome, but there was actually another one in the dark.
Slave Xiu did not seem to buy it. He looked into the depths of the forest and said coldly, “I said not to interfere in my matters.”
“Hahahaha…”
What responded to Slave Xiu was a series of crazy laughter. “You really don’t know what’s good for you. If I hadn’t saved you just now, you would have been stabbed.”
Slave Xiu said unreasonably, “I can kill them. Move aside, or I’ll kill you too!”
A helpless sigh came from the dark. “Alright, alright, I won’t interfere.
However, remember to leave one alive for me. My last poisonous creature is gone. My heart aches so much. I have to quickly refine a new one. These two people must have good aptitude to have survived so many moves from you.”
Slave Xiu said in a low voice, “Got it.”
The Old Marquis said to Wei Ting, “I’ll deal with the one in the forest. Drag
Slave Xiu first.’
That person said that he would not interfere. Who knew? The cold arrows in the dark were the most difficult to guard against.
“Okay.”
Wei Ting agreed.
Slave Xiu went to chase after the Old Marquis. Wei Ting slashed down. “Your opponent is me.”
The Old Marquis chased into the dark forest.
The black-robed man sneered. “Slave Xiu, you can’t blame me. Someone came
Imocking on my door.”
The Old Marquis looked at the branch above his head. “So you’re here! Die!”
The other party’s aura was not as powerful as Slave Xiu’s. The Old Marquis was confident of killing him in one strike.
However, the moment the Old Marquis attacked, an unbelievable thing happened.
The Old Marquis suddenly felt that he could not move.
He frowned.
Not good, he was poisoned!
