NOVPUBChapter 999: Chapter 642: Unparalleled Elder Chapter 999 -642: Unparalleled Elder The girl named Liu Liu in front of him was dressed in long-sleeved white clothes, a light blue short cape, and a skirt of the same color pleated short, with a white belt tied around her waist with a short tassel.
Her jet-black hair cascaded down to her waist, part of her hair held back with a blue ribbon, her eyes a pale blue like the ice of the Arctic, her long and dense eyelashes like tiny fans.
Her gaze occasionally flitted towards Chu Mo, and she would also carefully glance at Qin Lan, looking cautious, yet incredibly curious.
Chu Mo looked at the girl in front of him, he was certain that this girl was not faking her demeanor; she was genuinely expressive芒鈧€漺hich meant that the elder with the surname Liu had indeed hidden himself well, so much so that even his own granddaughter was unaware of his real identity.
Chu Mo took a light breath, then asked,
鈥淲hat does your grandfather usually do?
Have you noticed anything unusual about him at times?鈥
The young heir of the Long family had said that the old man with the surname Liu had a very unusual identity, and decades ago, he was a major figure known throughout Hua Country.
Otherwise, he might not have possessed such precious items like the Great Rejuvenation Pill.
...
However, for reasons unknown, the elderly Mr.
Liu later chose to retire.
He renounced his trillion-dollar fortune and chose to live under an assumed name as an ordinary person.
He was supposed to live a simple and ordinary life, but it was precisely because of this young girl that his identity was exposed.
The girl named Liu Liu was a sophomore at the Mo-Du Engineering University.

As her home was close to the school, and she only had her grandfather as a family member, plus her concern for her grandfather鈥檚 old age, Liu Liu often returned home.
Since her grandfather鈥檚 pension wasn鈥檛 much, Liu Liu didn鈥檛 want to rely on it to live, so she sought her own path and followed the trend to start livestreaming.
Sure enough, with her good looks and the beautifying camera filters switched on, she became an absolute stunner.
Despite the lack of any special talents, her pretty face and lively personality allowed her to gain a foothold in the livestreaming industry, earning a salary each month that, although not much, was enough to support herself.
Neither Liu Liu nor her reclusive grandfather could have expected that a rather ordinary livestream would reveal his identity, just because she showed a jade pendant belonging to her grandfather, and this Dragon Beard Jade Pendant exposed the old man鈥檚 identity.
Of course, ordinary people wouldn鈥檛 think much of the pendant even if they saw it, only those real major families would recognize the significance of the Dragon Beard Jade Pendant.
It was the Long family from Xiangjiang that recognized the pendant, and after some secret investigations, they confirmed the old man鈥檚 real identity.
Even with the Long family鈥檚 lavish gifts, they were loath to offend the old man.
After contacting him in secret and learning that he had no intention of returning to the limelight and wished to live a simple life, even Long Zhentian of the Long family residence could only sigh softly but would not dare to act recklessly.
The Long family disclosed the secret to Chu Mo because they knew they couldn鈥檛 persuade the old man to come out of retirement.
Even guarding this secret was useless, and since they wanted to be on good terms with Chu Mo, they told him, no longer caring about the outcome themselves.
The girl named Liu Liu was unaware that just because of one of her livestreams, she had caused trouble for her grandfather.
Her eyes occasionally drifted towards Qin Lan by Chu Mo鈥檚 side, her gaze clearly showing envy and amazement.
Qin Lan, a mid-level Great Grandmaster, naturally carried an ethereal quality about her, and ordinary people even dared not meet her clear eyes.
After her fight with the man in white, her body matured a few years more, and she now looked like a breathtakingly beautiful teenager in the prime of youth.
At this moment, Qin Lan had waist-length hair, cherry lips, clear bright black pupils, gracefully arched brows, and long lashes trembling slightly.
Her fair skin had a blush of pink, and her figure was enviable.
Additionally, her flawless face boasted feather-like brows, a high nose, and perfect lips, each feature exuding nobility and elegance.
Now, Qin Lan possessed a perfect hundred-point beauty score, making her stand out even more than Ding Qian, a superstar from Shi Yuan Entertainment, or Winnie, a model from Maple Leaf Country now working at the Longevity Club.
No wonder, even Liu Liu, a girl herself, couldn鈥檛 help but sneak peeks at Qin Lan.
When Qin Lan casually brushed back a strand of hair from her ear, a sound of someone swallowing saliva could suddenly be heard.
鈥淕ulp!鈥
The room was initially quiet, which made the sound especially jarring.
Naturally, although there were three men in the hall, it wasn鈥檛 any one of them who made the noise.
Fan Gao, as the head of the bodyguards, was himself at the peak of a half-step Grandmaster, and as the deputy head of the Fan family, he was a prominent figure in Mo-Du, accustomed to the sight of countless beauties.
His composure was unlikely to waver.
As for the true Great Grandmaster Lei Ting, in his martial-obsessed eyes, even the most beautiful woman was nothing but a skeletal illusion.
Having severed even familial and romantic ties, Lei Ting鈥檚 eyes held only martial arts; nothing in the world could sway his heart.
