Chapter 124: Chapter 106: Unparalleled Tower in Calamity
"Hahaha!"
A roaring laugh echoed throughout the Mo Family’s Council Hall.
This laughter carried a certain boldness, but after all, it was Sixth Master Mo who was laughing!
What to do?
Just go along with it!
Ye Hei stood at the lower end, head down, his hands itching to scratch the walls out of frustration.
Even though he was ntally prepared and had left the Mo Family as the last stop, he couldn’t shake off the unease upon arriving here.
The old butler stood quietly at the side, but the slight twitch at the corners of his mouth betrayed so of his emotions at the mont.
Outside the hall, a loud voice arrived before the person, laughter preceding words.
"Sixth Uncle, I heard that Unparalleled Tower lost that precious Pill, is it true?"
The cousin entered with a beaming smile, radiating warmth like a spring breeze.
Ye Hei could only bite his tongue in anger, thinking that this family was just too much; even though Unparalleled Tower had faced a disaster, couldn’t they refrain from expressing their joy so blatantly?
Pretending to be suddenly aware of Ye Hei, the cousin quickly put on a look of sympathy and consoled, "Unparalleled Tower has t with such misfortune, and the whole Mo Family is deeply... deeply saddened, Brother Ye, my condolences."
No, we just lost sothing, we’re not on the brink of ruin or anything!
The more he listened, the more skewed it sounded, as if Unparalleled Tower was on the verge of collapse and it’s like hearing through a dangerous storm.
"It’s not really a big deal, losing... losing a Pill, it’s not that serious, not serious at all."
Ye Hei replied with a forced smile.
Mo Yushu sat at the top with great difficulty, especially after the cousin’s words.
He twitched a little at the corners of his mouth, suppressing his amusent, then spoke in a deep voice.
"How could a well-guarded Pill just disappear?"
The underlying tone was filled with disbelief.
Ye Hei imdiately felt a sense of anguish, wearing a bitter face as he said, "Patriarch Mo, let’s speak frankly, the Pill indeed disappeared on its own, and it vanished into thin smoke right under the eyes of
and my Sect Leader, this is absolutely true, Unparalleled Tower doesn’t joke about such matters."
"I have already visited the other seven families in succession, although the Pill disappeared on its own, ultimately it was lost from our Unparalleled Tower, for this, we are willing to offer compensation."
Upon hearing this, Mo Yushu instantly exchanged a glance with his sixth brother, Mo Xingzhi imdiately understood.
This ans they intend to let him take the lead in asking for sky-high prices.
With Mo Yushu’s status, it’s indeed unsuitable for him to handle such matters.
Understanding the intricacies, Mo Xingzhi chuckled and smiled at Ye Hei before speaking.
"I wonder, how did the other families respond?"
Ye Hei imdiately tensed up; this was the critical mont, and he couldn’t afford a single mistake in the next part.
After preparing a ntal draft, Ye Hei finally bowed and said, "The elders of the other families are reasonable, willing to accept compensation from Unparalleled Tower."
Mo Xingzhi’s eyes spun with mischief, then he curiously asked, "What kind of price did they ask for?"
Naturally, this couldn’t be disclosed; in everything, fear lies in comparison, if everyone had the sa price, Unparalleled Tower might end up compensating everything down to their last garnt.
Ye Hei quickly plastered a smile on his face and explained.
"The items the elders asked for, I must keep confidential."
Want to know?
Go and ask each of those seven families yourself.
No wonder he’s Bian Renjie’s right-hand man, handling matters with such expertise.
Mo Xingzhi couldn’t argue further, so he let it go and asked a new question.
"Then what does Unparalleled Tower plan to offer our Mo Family?"
Why not throw the ball back and see if he can probe the bottom line?
Who knew Ye Hei wouldn’t take the bait at all, his face full of earnestness, he spoke.
"Since Unparalleled Tower is the one compensating the Mo Family, it should be up to the Mo Family to set the terms; as long as it’s reasonable, Unparalleled Tower can agree."
When Ye Hei ntioned "reasonable
