The Strongest Hero: The Demon King is the Challenger? !

Lin Mo and the other man naturally had no idea what the three of them were talking about. After sleeping for an afternoon and having a big meal, Lin Mo decided to take a tour of the Ji Mansion, and Lan also arranged someone to be their tour guide.

The Ji family is worthy of being the number one family in Xuanhui City. Ji Yuxuan's courtyard alone is big enough for a large parking lot. There is a small river flowing through the courtyard, and flowers and plants are planted all around.

The girl in white that I met before was still standing on the wooden bridge over the creek, looking into the distance and thinking about something. From time to time, she frowned and sighed softly, as if she was worried about something.

This one is obviously a quest NPC, so we have to avoid it.

Lin Mo led Lin Mo past quietly without even looking up at the girl.

"Ah, Sister Qing."

The girl saw the maid who led the way for Lin Mo and the others, and stepped forward to greet her.

"Miss Yao, just call me by my name."

The maid bowed respectfully.

Well, I didn’t avoid it.

Lin Mo rolled his eyes. Since he had been stopped anyway, he simply raised his head and looked into the girl's eyes, and they nodded to each other.

"No way. I was very grateful to Sister Qing for taking care of me when I was little. I wonder if Auntie is free now?"

The girl seemed to be looking for Ji Yuxuan, which made Lin Mo feel relieved. Fortunately, she was not looking for trouble.

"The young lady is entertaining guests right now, so I'm afraid she doesn't have time."

The maid lowered her head and said, not expecting another person to come from behind.

"Qing, there's more news from the inn. We need to go over there to confirm it."

The man was obviously in a panic.

"Ah? But young master... I'm sorry Miss Yao, could you please help me take you and your partner to visit the Ji Mansion? I have something urgent to do here!"

The maid looked at the girl with pleading eyes.

"Sister Qing, please go and take care of the matter. I will entertain the two distinguished guests."

The girl nodded and did not refuse.

No, have you ever considered asking me?

Lin Mo showed no expression on the surface, but he was already cursing in his heart.

Does this plot have to be so bloody? Will a group of lackeys come to block the way the next moment and say something like stay away from Miss Yao?

"I'm sorry, Master Lin. I'm extremely sorry!"

The maid ran away like the wind, as if something big had happened.

Lin Mo could only nod and turn his gaze to the girl in white.

"Hello, sir. My name is Ji Yao. May I know your name?"

Ji Yao looked at Lin Mo with a faint smile.

"Lin Mo, nice to meet you, Miss Ji."

Lin Mo subconsciously stretched out his right hand. After all, this was a way of making friends that was ingrained in his bones.

Ji Yao was stunned for a moment, but still reached out and shook it.

As clear as ice and smooth as jade, soft as if without bones.

This was Lin Mo’s first feeling when he touched Ji Yao’s palm.

They just shook hands symbolically and then let go.

Ji Yao looked at Yan Nai who was standing next to Lin Mo.

"My name is Yan Nai."

Yan Nai was very concise. He nodded and continued to hold Lin Mo's arm without saying anything.

"Is this your first time visiting the Ji Mansion?"

Ji Yao speaks softly, and her conversation and behavior are full of elegance and dignity.

"Yes, I want to take a look at this place. It's very beautiful."

Lin Mo nodded.

Now that it has happened, just accept it and let things develop as they will.

"Haha, it would be a pity if you come to Ji Mansion and don't visit the Purple Bamboo Forest. I'll take you to see it."

Ji Yao chuckled and led the two of them towards the depths of the Ji Mansion.

"That boy actually touched Yao'er's hand, even though I haven't touched it before. I'm going to chop him off!!"

The young man who had been watching Ji Yao not far away had his eyes almost popping out of his head, and he wished he could kick the bastard who took advantage of Ji Yao away right now.

"Master, calm down. Rushing forward now will only make Miss Yao hate you even more!"

A rat-like henchman at the side stopped the young man who was about to rush forward.

"Then what do you think we should do? We can't just watch Yaoer being taken advantage of!"

The young master said angrily.

"Yes, I remember that silly boy from the Wang family is here too... Ouch!"

Before the follower could finish his words, he was slapped in the face by the young master.

"It's fine if you don't mention him. It makes me even more angry when you mention him. Why would Grandpa agree to let Yao'er marry that idiot?"

"No, we'll lure that idiot over here. He'll definitely not be able to see his fiancée being taken advantage of by another man. When he runs away, we'll take the opportunity to chase him away. That way, Miss Yao will have a better impression of you."

The follower said cheerfully.

"Hmm, that makes sense. You are really quick-witted. Go and arrange this matter. I will give you a big reward after you succeed!"

"As you command, kid!"

,,,,,,

Lin Mo and his companions who were leaving had no idea what those people were planning.

At this time, they were passing by a large tower. Although it was not towering into the clouds, it was also majestic and looked quite old.

"This is the place where our Ji family worships our ancestors. Only our clan has this pagoda, and usually some important matters are discussed here."

Ji Yao introduced.

"Oh~"

Lin Mo looked up at the top of the tower like a little child and exclaimed in surprise.

Ji Yao smiled slightly. This young man was so interesting. He spoke humorously along the way and showed a childish expression from time to time.

All the sorrows of these days seemed to be blown away by him. Is there some magic?

Before they knew it, a full moon rose up, but the group continued to tour Ji Mansion without getting tired.

Lin Mo felt as if he had traveled back to China a thousand years ago. The decoration and houses of Ji Mansion were similar to those of ancient China, giving Lin Mo the illusion of having traveled back in time.

The evening breeze was rustling, and everyone finally arrived at the purple bamboo forest that Ji Yao had mentioned before.

Tall bamboos rose from the ground. Ji Yao led Lin Mo through the bamboo forest and came to a small wooden house. They sat down at the stone table in the courtyard.

Looking up, the full moon in the starry sky was still bright, casting the shadow of the bamboo all the way to Lin Mo's feet.

Lin Mo felt an unprecedented sense of emptiness. The sound of the breeze blowing through the bamboo leaves beat against his heart and cleansed his soul.

He sat upright in the chair, holding the tea that Ji Yao poured for him, his eyes very clear.

"The bamboo shadows and poems are thin, the plum blossoms are fragrant in dreams.

It's a pity that the moon tonight refuses to set in the west wing."

Lin Mo raised the teacup in his hand above his head, as if he was reciting poetry to the full moon.

Lord Lin Mo has started again, still so charming, if my guess is correct,,,

Yan Nai's eyes sparkled as she looked at Lin Mo illuminated by the moonlight. She was the only one who had seen Lord Lin Mo like this before. Lord Lin Mo was so different from the usual one and was extremely charming.

And he glanced at Ji Yao who was standing beside him. As expected, the latter was also staring at Lin Mo who was raising his glass to the moon.

Ji Yao was indeed stunned. She didn't know why Lin Mo, who had a smiling face before, suddenly changed his temperament and started reciting poems and composing couplets.

She had only seen such scenes in books and had never imagined that such a scene actually existed.

Under the moon, the young man with his hair blown by the breeze was reciting poems facing the moon and the bamboo forest. The scene in the dream actually came true.

She has always been fond of literature and poetry. Even though she has outstanding talent, she does not like to practice. She only thinks that those literary works and poems are the true wisdom of their ancestors, not some bloodline ability.

It's a pity that she has never met anyone who shares the same hobbies as her, and when she grows up she will be used as a tool to marry someone she doesn't even know.

She seemed to have accepted her fate, but her aunt's insistence changed the whole situation. Her always stubborn grandfather began to reconsider her affairs because of her aunt.

So she planned to consult her aunt for countermeasures, but she never expected to meet Lin Mo, such a magical person.

"Hahahaha, great words, great poem, great Prince Under the Moon!"

At this time, a hearty laugh came from the wooden house, and a white-haired old man came out laughing with a wine jug in his hand.
