Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 1003 1003: There's a Reason You Have So Many Enemies

Mo Hutu looked at Qin Yi and laughed, "I've seen you, more than once."
"Hmm?" Qin Yi was surprised, as he hadn't seen Mo Hutu before.
Mo Hutu said, "It's just that when I met you, Little Friend Qin Yi, you were disguised each time."
Qin Yi and Mo Wuji exchanged glances.
Mo Hutu's words were suggestive. Qin Yi chuckled, "When did we meet?"
"To be precise, I've seen you, but you've never seen me."
"What do you mean?"
"The first time you came to the Mo Family, and the subsequent times you sneaked in."
Mo Wuji's expression changed slightly.
But Qin Yi remained calm because he had already guessed this.
"Really? You're just bluffing, right? This is my first time here at the Mo Family."
Mo Hutu yawned, laughed, and said, "Harlot."
Hmm?
"Why does this old man insult people?" Qin Yi frowned, but suddenly he was stunned.
Because the two words Mo Hutu used were the same he muttered accidentally when he visited the Mo Family for the first time and misread the "Serene" in Mo Wuji's study as "Harlot."
Mo Wuji also recalled and was completely shocked.
Mo Hutu continued, "The first time you came to the Mo Family, you couldn't sleep at night and wandered around. You even came here."
Qin Yi felt awkward, thinking that saying he couldn't sleep was just to save face. In reality, he was investigating the Mo Family's secrets that night and had indeed been there.
Qin Yi finally confirmed that the old man had discovered him the first time he visited the Mo Family.
"You spotted me long ago, and yet knowing I'm not an ally to the Mo Family, you didn't make a move against me?"
Mo Hutu said, "I did consider it, but suddenly I became curious about you and planned to observe for a while. Honestly, at that time, your cultivation was too weak, and I didn't regard you seriously at all.
But surprisingly, Little Friend Qin Yi, you were too monstrous. Your growth speed was astounding. I couldn't react in time, and by the time I thought of killing you, it was too late because I lacked confidence.
However, luckily I didn't act rashly, otherwise, the Mo Family might have ended up like the others, lost to history."
Qin Yi squinted slightly, "You're quite straightforward."
"I have no choice. With your current cultivation level, I probably wouldn't be able to match you. So it's better, to be honest. Otherwise, misunderstandings would be bad." While saying this, he looked at Mo Wuji, "Good kid, not bad."
Mo Wuji's face was full of bewilderment.
"Actually, I noticed you since you showed absolute talent. Everything you've done, I've seen, including your secret trips outside to pay respects to your mother and your lamentations at your father's grave.
Mo Honghai's intentions toward you, I've also been aware of. The matter of you joining forces with Little Friend Qin Yi, I've known all about it."
Mo Wuji's mouth was agape.
"You old man, watching Old Mo being bullied and yet not stepping in, are truly cold-blooded." Qin Yi sneered.
Mo Hutu chuckled, showing no signs of guilt or shame, "A jade is not finished without being polished. A hidden dragon will eventually find its way to the sea. At my age, I can't meddle in young people's affairs; they need to sort it out themselves.
After all, they're all children of the Mo Family; the palm and back of the hand are both flesh. Who should I help, and who should I not?"
Mo Wuji bowed, sincerely said, "I understand the difficulties of the ancestor. I am also grateful for not being rejected because of my bloodline."
"Pfft, this old man watched you suffer, and you're still writing about him?" Qin Yi looked contemptuous. If it were him, he might not kill the old man but would definitely kick him a couple of times.
"Brother Qin may not understand, but the Hidden Families place almost obsessive importance on bloodlines. My impure bloodline would be exterminated in any other family. The reason I survived is probably because the ancestor secretly protected me."
Qin Yi looked at Mo Hutu, "Is what Old Mo said true?"
Mo Hutu replied, "I just gave a few reminders, it wasn't really protection. The reason he survived was because of himself; I didn't help much."
Without standing on ceremony, Qin Yi patted Mo Hutu on the shoulder, "Didn't expect, you, old man..."
Before Qin Yi could finish speaking, Mo Hutu suddenly plopped to the ground.
What?
Qin Yi was dumbfounded. He just patted the old man's shoulder without exerting any force. How could this old man's cultivation be so fragile?
"Ancestor?" Mo Wuji instinctively rushed to help Mo Hutu.
Qin Yi looked disdainful, "Old man, are you staging an accident?"
Mo Hutu stood up with Mo Wuji's help, looked at Qin Yi, and said, "Little Friend Qin Yi, I'm getting on in years. From now on, you can't be so disrespectful to the elderly."
"Oh wow... you picked the wrong person to stage an accident with?" Qin Yi said, suddenly asking, "Are you having health problems?"
"You're the one with health problems. Why curse me for no reason?"
"Just now when I patted you, there wasn't the slightest bit of cultivation fluctuation in you. You were just like an ordinary person..."
"That was because I was too lazy to channel my energy."
Qin Yi: "..."
Mo Wuji asked worriedly, "Ancestor, are you sure your health is okay?"
"Boom!"
Mo Hutu's aura suddenly surged, forcing Mo Wuji to take several steps back.
Qin Yi's lips twitched. This old man has probably cultivated some technique to conceal his cultivation, which is why there was no sign of it. As for being too lazy to channel energy, Qin Yi didn't believe it at all.
Mo Wuji breathed a sigh of relief, happily saying, "It's good that the ancestor's health is fine."
"It would be better if there were health problems; then you could stage accidents for money." Qin Yi mumbled.
Mo Hutu's half-closed eyes suddenly widened, "Now I finally understand why other families are so eager to kill you. It's not just because you killed their people; they probably want to rip your mouth off too."
Qin Yi: "..."
"Old man, are you looking for trouble? Let me tell you, I've dealt with several old men like you."
Mo Hutu looked at Qin Yi with squinty eyes, "You have a lot of enemies, and it's not without reason."
Qin Yi: "..."
This old man dared to insult his sharp tongue?
Mo Wuji noticed things weren't right and quickly soothed Qin Yi, "Brother Qin, calm down. The ancestor is just joking with you."
"Fine, on your account, I'll let it go." Qin Yi looked at Mo Hutu, "Didn't you say you were going to treat me to a drink? Where's the wine?"
"Don't worry, there's plenty of wine. I'm just afraid you can't handle it."
Qin Yi: "..."
"Doesn't the Mo Family have three old folks? Call them out and I'll drink with all three, show them what real drinking is like."
"It's just me. The other two are in seclusion, trying to break through. Really, I don't know what they're thinking. Cultivating all the time, aren't they tired? It's true that the older you get, the more afraid of death you become. Little Friend Qin Yi, when I say you can't handle it, it's not the same as what you think."
"Isn't it just opening your mouth and pouring it down, to see who can drink more?"
Mo Hutu shook his head, saying seriously, "That's just wasting good stuff. I'll show you how to drink later."
