Ouyang Zongchen ignored Chen Mo, merely smiling faintly. "Kid, when you go down, ask him yourself."
As the words fell, four figures surged towards Chen Mo, surrounding him.
The sharp aura clearly intended to end Chen Mo's life in a single blow!
"Old Ancestor, help me," Chen Mo suddenly said in his mind.
Simultaneously, Chen Mo relaxed his body, standing in place without any semblance of defense.
"It seems you've given up resisting, kid. You have some self-awareness, knowing that futile resistance is useless," Ouyang Zongchen said mockingly.
However, in the very next second, Ouyang Zongchen's expression froze.
For the four figures that had been charging at Chen Mo were now completely frozen in place.
As if imprisoned by some power, they were utterly unable to move!
The four men attacking Chen Mo were also filled with horror.
Before they could even ascertain the reason for their immobility,
"Bang!"
A deafening sound.
The four figures were simultaneously sent flying backward.
"Pfft!"
All four spat out a mouthful of blood, their bodies collapsing onto the ground. Their faces were ashen, clearly having lost all ability to resist.
"This, how is this possible!" Ouyang Zongchen was stunned, staring blankly at everything before him, his face filled with disbelief.
Chen Mo stepped forward, his eyes vacant, exuding an oppressive aura like that of death's arrival.
All four figures had their chests crushed by his kick.
The scene before him completely shattered Ouyang Zongchen's composure. The dignity and disdain he had previously held as a superior had vanished without a trace.
Chen Mo's vacant gaze disappeared. He glanced at the four lifeless figures around him.
Then, Chen Mo walked towards Ouyang Zongchen, who stood by the villa entrance.
"Gulp!"
Ouyang Zongchen couldn't help but swallow.
His legs went weak, and he directly slumped to the ground.
He then scrambled to flee into the villa.
However, how could a mere waste with only dark energy cultivation escape Chen Mo's grasp?
Just as Ouyang Zongchen was about to reach the upper floor, he found a pair of legs suddenly appearing before him.
Looking up, he saw it was Chen Mo, who had been outside moments ago!
"Chen Mo, you, you can't kill me. I'm from the Ouyang family. If you kill me, the Ouyang family will absolutely not let you go!" Ouyang Zongchen quickly said to Chen Mo.
Chen Mo asked again, "I'm asking you, was He Zhongnan killed by your Ouyang family?"
"No, no, it wasn't us," Ouyang Zongchen quickly shook his head.
"Are you sure?" Chen Mo asked in a deep voice.
"We really didn't kill him. Our target has always been you. We suspected back then that He Zhongnan had taken your jade pendant. We even found many pictures and research materials about the jade pendant in his home. But later, we discovered He Zhongnan was killed, and the other party didn't seem to have obtained the jade pendant. So, we thought the jade pendant should still be with you," Ouyang Zongchen replied in a panic.
"Who did it?" Chen Mo asked.
"The Sun family of Chenghai!"
"Chenghai, the Sun family?!" A cold glint flashed in Chen Mo's eyes.
Then, Chen Mo looked at Ouyang Zongchen again. "How much do you know about the Chen family's affairs back then? Tell me everything."
Ouyang Zongchen recounted tremblingly, "The jade pendant you possess was the Chen family's treasured heirloom. It is said, it is said to be the key to unlocking a certain secret treasure."
"So, you slaughtered the entire Chen family?" Chen Mo asked.
Ouyang Zongchen swallowed. "I was young back then, and I wasn't involved in this matter. Moreover, almost all the aristocratic families were involved."
"Actually, it's not entirely others' fault. If the Chen family had handed over this jade pendant back then, or agreed to explore it together, they wouldn't have ended up annihilated."
"Bang!"
Chen Mo raised his leg and kicked directly into Ouyang Zongchen's abdomen.
"Oww!" A scream.
Ouyang Zongchen instantly clutched his stomach and collapsed on the ground.
"You robbed others of their possessions and then blamed them for not handing them over sooner. You are truly shameless!" Chen Mo glared at him furiously.
"Shameless? Chen Mo, the law of the jungle has always been the truth of this world!"
"Just like those poor people. The crime rate in remote mountain villages is low. Do you think everyone there is a good person?"
"There is no fairness in this world! Do you understand?!" Ouyang Zongchen glared at Chen Mo angrily.
"Then, your meaning is, since I have you in my hands, I can kill you whenever I want," Chen Mo said, his eyes cold as he looked at Ouyang Zongchen.
"Kill me then." Ouyang Zongchen had figured it out. Chen Mo would never let him go, so he stopped begging.
Chen Mo didn't rush to act but continued to ask, "Tell me, where is the old site of the Chen family?"
Ouyang Zongchen sneered, "Even if I tell you, you wouldn't dare to go."
"Why?" Chen Mo frowned slightly.
"Because the old site of the Chen family is now the Ouyang family," Ouyang Zongchen said.
"You can die now." Chen Mo's eyes turned cold.
With a palm strike, he directly struck Ouyang Zongchen's head.
Instantly, Ouyang Zongchen's seven orifices bled, and he fell to the ground.
"The Sun family of Chenghai, I will avenge Old Man He's death." As the words fell, Chen Mo slowly walked towards the door.
Seeing the six corpses outside the door, Chen Mo picked them all up and then threw them into the villa.
Closing the door, Chen Mo drove away from Wantai Garden.
He also notified Ma Sihai to delete all surveillance footage along the way and within Wantai Garden.
He knew very well that he was not yet strong enough to contend with an aristocratic family.
Returning home, he lay beside Tian Mengyao.
Chen Mo's mind was very troubled. The amount of information he had received today was substantial, and some of it was even difficult for him to accept.
"Ouyang family, Sun family of Chenghai. These two families are the first I must eliminate," Chen Mo made a decision in his heart.
However, the primary task now was to improve his strength.
A mere Ouyang Zongchen had six internal energy masters protecting him. Not to mention the entire Ouyang family, he was currently no match for them.
"Stinky brat, cultivation is not an overnight endeavor. Having a goal is good, but remember, as a cultivator, you cannot force growth. Without a solid foundation, even if you reach a certain cultivation level, you won't be able to exert your corresponding strength."
Suddenly, the Old Ancestor's admonishment echoed in Chen Mo's mind.
"Yes, Old Ancestor," Chen Mo replied with a nod.
However, Chen Mo's gaze also became more resolute.
The next morning.
As Chen Mo and Tian Mengyao were having breakfast, Chen Mo suddenly received a call from Jiang Hongwen.
He said that early this morning, before the hospital had even opened, dozens of people had blocked the hospital entrance.
Not only that, but there were also banners being held, and a large group of reporters.
