"Xiaoxiao, why haven't you greeted our guest yet?" Su Gongyang looked at Su Xiaoxiao, instructing her.
Su Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment and then, with her head respectfully bowed, said, "Su Xiaoxiao pays her respects to Mr. Lin."
"Greetings to Mr. Lin," Master Mo, who stood behind, also bowed and clasped his hands together. The night before, Lin Mo's fame had exploded on the Dark Web forum. As a Martial God Level expert, Master Mo was naturally aware of the website's existence and the authority it represented.
Lin Mo alone had slaughtered the prime assassins of both the Godslayer Temple and Soul Destruction, frightening both organizations into revoking their kill orders. It was the first time since their establishment that either had withdrawn such a decree.
Thus, Master Mo's reverence and fear towards Lin Mo grew even more profound.
"What in the world is going on?" Su Yongchun's eyes widened in disbelief.
"How could the Old Master be..." Su Kaileang was astonished, clicking his tongue.
Su Minmin, Su Ze, Su Feiyue, and the others were speechless, their eyes wide as if unable to believe that everything unfolding before them was real.
Old Master Su was an extraordinary figure, one of the Northeast's Four Heavenly Kings, ruling over the region, and now he was showing such courtesy to Lin Mo.
"Mr. Old Master Su," Lin Mo responded with a slight nod.
After all, Su Gongyang's status was significant, and since he had shown Lin Mo considerable respect, Lin Mo decided not to put on any airs.
Su Yongchun and the others were utterly perplexed, wholly unaware of what had transpired for Lin Mo to have such a good relationship with Old Master Su.
"Mr. Su, do you know Lin Mo?" Su Yongchun, utterly confused, cautiously stood aside and asked.
Su Gongyang gave him a cold glance and said, "Su Yongchun, the Buddha himself stands before you and yet you do not know to bow. Ah! Should I call you foolish, or simply blind?"
Su Yongchun and Su Kaileang were even more baffled, unsure of the meaning behind Old Master Su's words.
Su Gongyang was a prominent figure, the helmsman of the powerful Su Family, privy to more information than most. Lin Mo had annihilated dozens from the Qu Family in Jiangzhou, and even with Qu Donglin present at the scene, no one could stop him.
It was likely that if Xia Mengdie didn't have half her blood related to the Su Family and Lin Mo hadn't been provoked, even the Su Family might have been eradicated.
"This..." Su Yongchun still did not understand, his face showing an incredibly awkward expression.
Just a moment ago, he and others from the Su Family had been pressing Lin Mo aggressively. How had it suddenly become the case that even Old Master Su was being so respectful to him?
"Mr. Su, Mr. Bai has come to pay his respects," a servant entered and informed them.
The crowd was stunned again. Mr. Bai from the Northeast's Bai Family was here?
Mr. Bai was one of the top young masters of the Northeast, with the Bai Family headquartered just next to Ha City. However, nobody had received notice that Mr. Bai would be visiting.
"Why has Mr. Bai come? I hadn't heard that he was going to visit," said Su Kaileang, confused.
"Heh, now this is going to be an entertaining show," Su Minmin whispered with a giggle, covering her mouth.
Su Ze also followed, saying "Mr. Bai is notoriously hot-tempered. If he knows Xia Mengdie's boyfriend is here, there might be a fight."
Although Su Feiyue didn't say anything, a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes. He grew increasingly displeased with Lin Mo, especially after Old Master Su arrived and, for some reason, showed him such courtesy, which made him very uncomfortable.
Su Yongchun's expression changed slightly as he glanced at Su Gongyang, who frowned slightly and said, "Why has this kid come?"
The Su Family Main House, although more powerful than the Bai Family and not one to take them lightly, still regarded the power behind the Bai Family with some wariness, even Su Gongyang.
As everyone was puzzled, a group of people walked in through the villa's entrance, one of whom was a gracefully young man around twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, wearing a thin suit, followed by two middle-aged men in black tight clothes, moving with the ferocity and swiftness of dragons and tigers - clearly Martial Arts Experts.
Bai Chengyang came striding forward and, with a smile, said, "Mr. Su."
"Mr. Bai, what brings you here?" Su Yongchun immediately revealed a fawning smile.
"I heard Xia Mengdie is back, so I came to see," said Bai Chengyang, who suddenly raised his head and saw Su Gongyang there; he hesitated for a moment and then directly greeted, "Old Master Su, I didn't expect to see you here."
