C21 Entering the Tang Family(1)

After thinking for a long time, Chu Mo could only think of Huang Zikun as an enemy.

Chu Mo felt that it was very likely. After all, the only person he had ever offended in Azure Realm City was Huang Zikun!

Other than Huang Zikun, Chu Mo could not think of anyone else who would dare to make a move against him and Qianqian.

However, Tang Xiaodao shook his head and said, "It's not Huang Zikun!"

Hearing that, Chu Mo could not help but be stunned. He asked, "Are you sure?"

"Very sure!"

Tang Xiaodao nodded and said, "I helped you solve Huang Zikun's problem a few days ago. Taking a step back, even if Huang Zikun ignored the Tang Family's face and acted against you, he wouldn't choose this method."

After a pause, Tang Xiaodao continued to explain, "A playboy like Huang Zikun always thinks very highly of himself. If he wanted to take revenge, he would definitely do it himself. In other words, even if he sent someone to attack you, he would personally watch you lose miserably. That is why he felt the pleasure of taking revenge. However, Huang Zikun never appeared today, not even a single person from the Huang Family!"

Hearing this explanation, Chu Mo nodded slightly in agreement. However, his brows furrowed even tighter. He said, "Since it's not Huang Zikun, then who is the one who ordered this? In this Azure Realm City, I've never offended anyone else!"

Tang Xiaodao stared into Chu Mo's eyes and said, "Do you really want to know?"

Chu Mo's eyes were resolute as he said firmly, "I must know!"

Tang Xiaodao sighed lightly, and then he slowly opened his mouth and said, "It was done by the Mercenary Martial Association!"

The Mercenary Martial Association, as the name suggested, was a team formed by mercenaries. It was called the Martial Association!

Although this Martial Association did not have a real location, it had a president, vice president, and other officials who were responsible for managing the daily affairs of the Mercenary Martial Association. For example, they were responsible for issuing missions, arranging the itinerary of the mercenaries, ensuring the interests of the mercenaries, and so on.

The Mercenary Martial Association was spread across the entire continent. As long as there were mercenaries, there would be a Mercenary Martial Association. The various Martial Associations were connected to each other, and they had formed a large organization that was deeply rooted.

In fact, in a sense, Chu Mo's current identity was also a mercenary. However, he had never joined this so-called Mercenary Martial Association.

The reason was very simple.

Due to Qianqian's special identity, Chu Mo had always avoided contact with any major power. Thus, Chu Mo had always treated the Mercenary Martial Association with respect and had never interacted with it.

Then, why did the Mercenary Martial Association want to make a move on me and Qianqian?

Chu Mo was confused, his eyes were blank, and he was very confused. He said, "Why would the huge Mercenary Martial Association pay attention to a small character like me? And why would they make a move on me?"

Hearing that, Tang Xiaodao shook his head and said, "Actually, the Mercenary Martial Association did not pay attention to you, Chu Mo, but someone else!"

Chu Mo asked, "Who?"

Tang Xiaodao hesitated for a moment, then pointed at his own face and said, "Me!"

"You?"

Chu Mo was even more confused, and said, "You were noticed by the Mercenary Martial Association, so what does it have to do with me?"

Tang Xiaodao said, "Because a few days ago, I had invited you to help me with something!"

Chu Mo frowned and said, "Just because of this?"

"Just because of this!"

Tang Xiaodao nodded and continued, "Actually, a long time ago, you, the independent mercenary, had been noticed by someone in the Mercenary Martial Association. However, you have always been low-key and did not violate their interests, so they just listened to it. However, the moment you met me, the entire thing was different!"

Chu Mo asked, "Why do you say that?"

Tang Xiaodao continued, "My Tang Family is not a local family in Azure Realm City, and I was only sent here to manage the market city by my family. You also know that most of the items sold in the market city are spirit medicine, beast cores, and Martial Skills, which are all related to mercenary warriors. Thus, there is a substantial conflict of interest between the Tang Family Market and the Mercenary Martial Association. Furthermore, my Tang Family has its own mercenary team, which further intensified the conflict of interest between the Tang Family Market and Mercenary Martial Association. At this critical juncture, the only independent mercenary in Azure Realm City, you, the Young Lord of Tang Family Market, had a connection with me, the Young Lord of Tang Family Market. Therefore, the Mercenary Martial Association would naturally not ignore this!"

After a pause, Tang Xiaodao continued, "I had already expected that the Mercenary Martial Association would make a move, but I never thought that they would be so ruthless towards you and Miss Qianqian. It seems that your importance in the Mercenary Martial Association is much greater than I imagined!"
