Cultivation Begins with Caring for Sister-in-law

Chapter 787 - 793, - 794: Found

"It’s inconvenient to tell you that for now. The reason I’m telling you this is because I want you to help save someone. Is Jincheng Lin Family wronged?" said Chen Mo."Are you from the Jincheng Lin Family?" Seeing the man not coming out from behind the screen, Princess Deti put down the long sword, picked up the robe beside her and draped it over her, tied it up, then realized something and said, "No, with the Lin Family’s strength, how could they sneak into the Princess’s Mansion without alerting anyone? You are the mysterious expert that the Third Prince mentioned, the one who saves Lin Family members?"

"You have quite a few questions," Chen Mo said.

"If they are truly wronged, you should file an accusation. I hold no position or duties in the court, I cannot help you," Princess Deti said.

However, her answer was met with a couple of contemptuous laughs: "Xingyin controls the court, filing an accusation would be like inviting oneself into a trap."

Upon hearing this derisive laughter, Princess Deti was somewhat displeased, responding coldly, "With your martial prowess, you could easily sneak into the Eldest Princess’s mansion and rescue them yourself, why go through all this trouble to find me?"

"With my martial skills, rescuing someone from prison would be easy, but currently, I don’t even know where he’s held. In two days, he is to be executed at the Meridian Gate, obviously a trap set by Xingyin to lure out the Lin Family. If I were to storm the execution then, what awaits me would be Heaven and Earth Net. Besides, I have unfinished business..." Chen Mo sighed softly.

"The person you want me to save is Lin Kong?" Princess Deti raised an eyebrow and said, "You’re overestimating me. Since the Third Prince intends to use him as bait, how could he heed my request to release him?"

The room fell into a brief silence.

Chen Mo was merely there to deliver a message, whether the other party could achieve it or not was not his concern. He felt he had done enough for the Lin Family without expecting much in return.

Having come this far was about enough. If he could finish Nalan Yiren’s matter and Lin Kong was still alive, he might choose to save him by force.

But for now, it’s not possible.

"Alright, I’ve delivered the message, I’m leaving," Chen Mo said.

Hearing this, Princess Deti felt a bit stunned; she thought the man’s silence earlier meant he was going to reveal something important, but that was it.

Seeing him about to leave, Princess Deti hurriedly said, "You haven’t told me where Shuang’Er is? At least let me meet Shuang’Er."

No response.

By the time Princess Deti walked behind the screen, the man was already gone. Only the open window swayed gently in the breeze.

"Bastard,"

Looking at the night outside the window, Princess Deti cursed softly.

As a princess not yet married, having a man enter her boudoir, except for her father, was a first. Most importantly, she didn’t even know what this man looked like.

At the same time, she felt relieved, knowing that if he had intended to harm her, given his strength, she couldn’t have resisted.

...

On another side,

In a secluded courtyard in the city, inside a room.

Because Lin Xuelan, Yu Zhu, and Shuang’Er were living here, Chen Mo, Nalan Yiren, Si Song, and Liang Mu rented another courtyard next door.

Lin Xuelan and Yu Zhu were in a room together, looking at the night outside the window with anxious expressions, with the former having deep worry in her eyes.

"Yu Zhu, do you think Young Master Mo will be alright?"

"It’s all because of me; the Princess’s Mansion is heavily guarded now. I actually pleaded with Young Master Mo..."

"If anything happens to Young Master Mo, I... I won’t live either." Lin Xuelan kept muttering, her heart burning with anxiety.

Upon hearing that Princess Deti returned, coincidentally, the government office announced that in two days, they would execute the "traitor" Lin Kong at the Meridian Gate. Panicked, Lin Xuelan sought out "Ink Language," knelt in front of him, and begged him to deliver a message to the Princess’s Mansion for her.

In hindsight, Lin Xuelan felt immense regret.

In this, Yu Zhu felt nothing but respect for "Ink Language," affirming Miss’s words that Young Master Mo is indeed a good man.

"Don’t worry, Miss, Young Master Mo is so strong, he will surely return safely," Yu Zhu said.

"Young Master Mo is indeed strong, but with so many people in the Princess’s Mansion, if discovered, even at fourth grade, I’m afraid..." Lin Xuelan’s eyes began to redden, gradually filling with tears.

Lin Xuelan was not someone prone to tears, but the recent events made her feel useless, and it was this sense of powerlessness that brought her to tears.

At that moment, the door was knocked.

Yu Zhu immediately became vigilant, "Who is it?"

"It’s me."

"Young Master Mo." Yu Zhu breathed a sigh of relief and quickly went to open the door.

As the door swung open, Yu Zhu felt a rush of wind pass by her, stunned to realize it was her Miss.

Upon seeing Chen Mo, Lin Xuelan got up and ran over, embracing Chen Mo tightly: "Young Master Mo, it’s so great that you’re alright. If anything happened to you, I... I wouldn’t want to live either, I would die to atone."

"..."

Feeling the warm and fragrant jade in his arms, Chen Mo raised his hand to greet but suddenly became a bit flustered, coughing lightly, "Miss Lin, please loosen up, I have something to say."

Only then did Lin Xuelan realize she was a bit too excited, hurriedly releasing Chen Mo, her face flushing red.

Yu Zhu handed Lin Xuelan a handkerchief, then said to Chen Mo, "Young Master Mo, have a seat."

"No need, I’ll just stand and speak," Chen Mo sighed lightly, "Miss Lin, the message you wanted me to deliver to Princess Deti, I have conveyed it all. But she said she can’t help you."
