Ruthless Host and Her Little Darling Quick Transmigration

Chapter 50 Am I the Mother of the Child of Destiny? 25

If it weren't for the fact that they knew the area inside and out, even if they encountered difficulties, they would have their own people secretly helping them. They had several loyal subordinates, and their influence here was already deeply entrenched. Compared to other unfamiliar large families, the Li family was relatively the safest.

The crowd surrounded Li Mo as they returned to the hall.

“Now that we’ve all talked it out, I’ll tell you everything that happened,” Li Mo said, pulling Tang Xiaoxiao closer. The two stood hand-in-hand, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, a perfect match. He knew that if he didn’t explain things clearly, his father would still ask.

"We really need to clarify this matter. Look at what's been said outside! Where does this leave the Li family's reputation? Are we even allowed to continue living in Liucheng?" The father's first words were full of accusations. He kept talking about the Li family's reputation, without ever asking what he himself had been through.

Li Mo ignored that comment and continued speaking. His tone was perfectly calm, as if he had just been talking about something insignificant.

Li Mo's indifferent attitude infuriated his father, who was seething with rage. This was his good son! He'd grown too big for his britches and wouldn't even listen to his own father anymore!

"This story begins six months ago. I met Xiaoxiao in the Dark Forest. She came from another continent, was lively and lovely, and well-mannered. I was immediately captivated by her."

"Nephew Mo, is there really another continent in this world?" Everyone was extremely surprised. Wasn't that just something from legends?

Li Mo nodded and looked at Tang Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, show everyone the person in your family who calls their family 'flat'."

Everyone was stunned when they saw Li Mo nod.

The other continent hidden overseas has not been left unexplored.

Those who went out never returned, and none survived. Everyone guessed that they either went to another continent or perished at sea.

I never imagined there really was another continent!

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Tang Xiaoxiao, eager to know what things on the other continent looked like.

It must be very unique!

Tang Xiaoxiao took the tablet out of the storage bracelet. Li Mo had returned the storage bracelet to her after she regained consciousness. This made her feel very safe; at least she could hide inside it if she encountered danger.

Tang Xiaoxiao opened her tablet and, quite cleverly, played a clip from a fantasy movie. It depicted characters who could fly on swords, cleave mountains and rocks with a flick of their sleeves, create clouds and rain with a turn of their hand, and be capable of anything—flying through the sky and disappearing into the earth.

It's important to understand that in this world of spiritual cultivation, there are no spells that allow flight. One can only move freely through the sky using flying artifacts. Unlike the legendary world of immortal cultivation, where one can fly by simply breaking off a tree branch, there are no spells to summon lightning or control wind and rain.

So when they saw the clear and beautiful cultivation scenes on the tablet, everyone in the hall was stunned into silence.

"This is incredibly powerful! What kind of power is this?"

"How can there be such a beautiful place in the world!"

"What are they cultivating? It produces such dazzling visual effects!"

"I never imagined there really was another continent in this world!"

“Niece-in-law, I’m closest to my nephew. Could you give me a set of your cultivation techniques? I’m not greedy, just one set will do.” Li Jing, the second wife’s uncle, shamelessly went up to Tang Xiaoxiao and asked for the cultivation techniques.

Tang Xiaoxiao clearly saw through his previous provocations and sarcastic remarks. Even if she did have them, she wouldn't give them to him.

Tang Xiaoxiao did not refuse, but instead handed over this authority to Li Mo.

"That depends on my husband. If he says he'll give it to me, then I will!" After saying this, Tang Xiaoxiao gave Li Mo a coquettish look.

Li Mo affectionately patted her head and pulled her into his arms.

This display of affection left everyone feeling overwhelmed, but no one knew why.

Seeing everyone's performance, Li Mo knew that he had achieved the effect he had expected, and Xiao Xiao was even more likely to stay.

"I'll share about cultivating immortality later. Now, let me clear up the rumors circulating outside to avoid any misunderstandings about Xiaoxiao. If I drive my wife away, where will I find another wife like her?"

"Of course, of course. My niece-in-law is such a good person, she's definitely not what people say."

So it's about cultivating immortality! Everyone secretly memorized the word "cultivating immortality".

"Because she had become separated from her family, I took her back to the villa for a short stay. At that time, we were not yet in love, and she wanted to find her family. I saw that she was a weak woman, so I went with her. Xiaoxiao was a lively person and often went out while living in the villa. When everyone went out to inquire, they found out that what I said was true."

"During our search for his family, we fell in love, and Xiaoxiao decided to stay with me. Later, we went to the Endless Forest, where we met Hongxiu, who had come looking for us."

"Who is Hongxiu? Why are we bringing her up again?" This second uncle really doesn't do anything without a profit. As soon as he found something to gain, he immediately came out to play the straight man.

“Hongxiu is an orphan girl I rescued years ago. Knowing I was going there, she went looking for me. I saw that she was all alone, having traveled a long way to find me. So I took her with me and we traveled together. My bodyguard, Gu Liu, also traveled with us at that time. Everyone in the Endless Forest can testify to this.”

Everyone nodded in agreement; the witness testimony was ample and plausible. As for whether it was genuine agreement or something else entirely, everyone knew perfectly well, but no one said it aloud.

"Who knew that she was so curious that she actually had the wild idea that entering the Divine Cave would give her a chance to soar to the heavens."

"This little girl is terribly ignorant. Does she think she can just walk into the Divine Cave like that? She deserves to die in there!" Uncle Li slammed his fist on the table in anger, seemingly convinced by what he said.

Li Mo glanced at Li Jing in agreement. "I thought so too. A mere maid isn't worth the risk. But Xiaoxiao is soft-hearted and kept begging me, so I went into the cave to rescue her. There were many people outside at the time, and Hongxiu is, after all, an unmarried girl. To save her face, I wrapped her up tightly and carried her out. Later, some people saw Xiaoxiao and assumed it was her who went in. I had no choice but to tell them the truth, hoping to put an end to it."

Some people didn't believe this explanation and were very skeptical. "You say she's a maid, so she is. She was wrapped up tightly when she came out; who would know who she was?"

The speaker was Li Jing's eldest son, who tirelessly strived for the position of heir. Having finally witnessed Li Mo's misfortune, how could he possibly hope for a chance to turn things around?

“My wife cultivates immortality, what would she be doing in the Divine Cave? Besides, my maid always wears green clothes. Anyone who enters the Divine Cave for trials should be able to see the torn clothes on the ground.” This statement was reasonable and well-founded, leaving no room for rebuttal.
