Chapter 998: Chapter 641: The Hermit Expert_2 Chapter 998: Chapter 641: The Hermit Expert_2 This day was already late September, and the weather in the Magic City was exceptionally clear, with crystal clear clouds overhead.
Chu Mo was accompanied by only Qin Lan and Lei Ting, along with Fan Gao, the top bodyguard captain.
A total of two cars left the Emperor Xuan Villas and drove along the main Central Avenue for about twenty minutes, then the Rolls-Royce and Bentley turned into a small lane.
As they moved, the scenery gradually shifted from tall skyscrapers to low residential houses, and compared to the bustling city center, this area looked much older.
The two cars made more than a dozen turns in alleyways and eventually stopped in front of a road impassable to vehicles.
At this point, Fan Gao imdiately got out to open the door for them, and from the Bentley behind, Great Grandmaster Lei Ting and Qin Lan also followed.
Chu Mo didn’t know how terrifying the reclusive sage he was about to et could be, nor did he know the person’s disposition.
...
However, after the encounter with the man in white, Chu Mo had grown extrely cautious about his own safety.
Thus, this ti too, he brought along the strongest combatants in his circle.
“Mr.
Chu,” Fan Gao approached Chu Mo slightly, “according to Young Master Long’s information, that senior should be right ahead in that alley!”
Fan Gao, being a peak-level Grandmaster, also possessed formidable strength—at least in the eyes of ordinary people, he was certainly capable of earth-shattering feats.
However, at Chu Mo’s side, where he always had two Great Grandmasters accompanying him left and right, Fan Gao seed sowhat ordinary.
Nevertheless, this should never be a reason for others to underestimate him.
As a peak-level Grandmaster, Fan Gao had all the conditions needed for a breakthrough; he was rely lacking a small opportunity.
Perhaps one day, a sudden enlightennt or a minor chance could allow him to break the shackles and truly beco a Great Grandmaster in martial arts.
And then, in all of Hua Country, at least within the martial arts community, no one would be unaware of Fan Gao’s na.
Chu Mo nodded slightly to Fan Gao and, after taking a deep breath, he stepped forward and walked towards the alley ahead.
Due to years of disrepair, the cent pavent underfoot was full of pits and uneven surfaces.
Occasionally, water puddles dirtied Chu Mo’s leather shoes, but he, not minding this at all, looked around the area.
Chu Mo was certain that if it weren’t for Long Huan Yu’s introduction, knowing that a hermit sage lived here in advance, he would never have co to this place on his own.
Walking along the narrow alley that could barely accommodate two people side by side, Chu Mo led the way.
After a mont, Fan Gao stopped in front of a house and turned to Chu Mo:
“Mr.
Chu, it’s here!”
Looking at the sowhat dilapidated door in front of him, Chu Mo felt no contempt.
He stood up straight and even took the ti to adjust his bow tie, then nodded to Fan Gao standing beside him.
At Chu Mo’s command, the tall Fan Gao imdiately knocked on the door, but there was no movent inside after several knocks.
After a pause, Fan Gao knocked again, but still, nobody opened the door.
Just as Chu Mo furrowed his brow, Qin Lan suddenly spoke from behind:
“There’s soone inside, they just aren’t opening the door for so reason!”
Chu Mo nodded slightly and then turned his gaze to Fan Gao.
This ti, Fan Gao stepped forward, positioned himself beside the door, and knocked harder with a bit more force.
Fan Gao was indeed a legitimate peak-level half-step Grandmaster; even though it was just a bit of force for him, for a regular person, it was akin to an adult’s full strength.
Thus, the door imdiately emitted two loud bangs, and due to Fan Gao’s powerful force, the entire door trembled, causing even so dust on the door to shake off.
This ti, even if the person inside were deaf, they should have noticed; there was no way they could pretend not to hear as before.
A mont later, heavy footsteps ca from inside, and then the door was opened to reveal a young woman in her twenties.
Clearly displeased by the loud knocks, her pretty face was covered with frost as she arrived at the door and said with a face full of anger:
“What are you knocking for?
Are you going to pay if you break the door?”
The girl’s angry voice had just fallen when she finally saw the figures in front of her.
Seeing several sharply dressed n standing at the door, two of whom were particularly burly, the girl’s montum imdiately weakened by a notch, and she hesitated to ask:
“Who are you looking for?”
Chu Mo gestured slightly, and Fan Gao who was standing in front of him consciously stepped back.
At that mont, a warm smile appeared on Chu Mo’s face as he cheerfully asked,
“Excuse …
Is this the residence of Senior Liu Feng!?”
Although Chu Mo’s question seed tentative, his eyes held certainty.
Looking at the girl in front of him, who appeared slightly puzzled, he looked past her and surveyed the inside of the house.
The structure appeared to be a simple one with two bedrooms and a living room.
The living room itself seed very basic, even to the point of being rather sparse.
The old sofa in there had faded to the extent that its original color was indiscernible.
Additionally, one of the bedroom doors was open, revealing a pink doll, but due to the girl standing in the way, Chu Mo could only see a corner of the opposite bedroom.
Despite that, Chu Mo could guess that the pink-decorated bedroom likely belonged to the girl in front of him.
As Chu Mo glanced around the room from the corner of his eye, the young girl with long hair draped over her shoulders furrowed her brows slightly.
She seed to ponder seriously for a mont before finally responding,
“You’ve got the wrong person, there’s no Senior Liu Feng here.”
The girl made to close the door, but Chu Mo imdiately asked,
“Doesn’t an elderly man surnad Liu live here?”
Pausing her action of closing the door, the girl looked at Chu Mo with confusion filling her tender, large eyes.
Upon seeing Chu Mo’s luxurious attire, especially the Rolex watch on his wrist, her puzzlent deepened.
Nevertheless, realizing the unusualness of the individuals before her, the long-haired girl didn’t dare to offend.
She tempered her attitude and nodded slightly,
“My grandfather’s surna is indeed Liu, but his na isn’t Liu Feng; he’s called Liu Ping.
Are you sure you haven’t got the wrong person?”
The girl looked puzzled, but Chu Mo’s smile reappeared.
He took another look inside the house, ensuring that it was only the girl inside without the hermit he was looking for.
He then chuckled,
“I indeed ca to find your grandfather.
As for the na, perhaps it’s been too long since we last t, and I rembered it wrong.
My na is Chu Mo, a descendant of an old friend of your grandfather’s.
I didn’t catch your na!”
As Chu Mo finished his sentence, he didn’t wait for the girl’s reply and barged into the room.
Initially resistant, the girl, when she heard Chu Mo ntion he was a descendant of her grandfather’s old friend, felt too embarrassed to make a scene.
Seeing Chu Mo had already entered, she sighed lightly and spoke,
“My na is Liu Liu.
Yes, Chu Mo, my grandfather has gone out.
He might be nearby in the park, playing chess with so old n or dancing with so elderly ladies in the square.
If it’s urgent, you can look for him in the park…!”
Before Liu Liu could finish speaking, Chu Mo had already seated himself on the living room sofa.
He said calmly,
“It’s no problem, I don’t have anything particularly urgent.
I’ll just wait here for your grandfather!”
The long-haired girl’s gaze swept over Fan Gao and Lei Ting, ultimately resting on Qin Lan.
With a look of astonishnt and admiration, Liu Liu gently said,
“Who exactly are you people, and what do you want with my grandpa?”
Hearing this, Chu Mo slightly curled the corners of his mouth, then said calmly,
“We just have so matters to discuss with Elder Liu.
By the way, Liu Liu, could you tell us a bit about your grandfather?”
After a mont’s hesitation, the girl spoke with utmost seriousness,
“Well, he’s just a carefree old man who lacks responsibility.”
