As a sixth-level Foundation Establishment cultivator, Chen Mo naturally had exceptionally sharp hearing.
As Ouyang Jun, Ouyang Ding, and several others from the Ouyang Family whispered among themselves, he heard them clearly. Chen Mo had little interest in paying attention to the Ouyang Family's affairs. As long as they did not provoke him, they could say whatever they wanted.
