Chapter 1077: Four Mothers Lecturing a Son, and Seven Countries Contending for Hegemony?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Among the entire Jun Family forces, only two people had not used the pills to raise their cultivation—Tian Can and Di Que!
Because Jun Mo Xie had once told them very sternly that as the foundations of their bodies were poor, it was best to raise their strengths using pills and natural treasures only after consuming a Marrow Cleansing Pill. That way, the effects of the pills would be maximized. Thus, those two little fellows had been left behind…
Truthfully, those two little fellows truly had great steadfastness of mind to endure, remaining unmoved even though the people around them were all advancing with the speed of a rocket. They continued to practice harshly, pus.h.i.+ng themselves to the limit every day. It was as if the progress of the others did not affect them at all…
The one who had improved the most little Ke’er, but the person whose strength was raised the most was still Mei Xue Yan herself. After having her strength raised once again by the baptism of the Spirit Vein, she had risen from the peak of the Third level of Saint Emperor realm all the way to First level Saint Venerable First! Although the number of levels she’d crossed was not that great, her strength had increased by a shocking amount!
With just the strength of the current Jun Family, it was already more than sufficient to stand stably at the peak of the world!
However, this alone was still not enough if they wanted to look disdainfully down at the rest of the world!
But if one considered the strength of the current Tian Fa Forest as well, it would be a completely different story!
After consuming the pills that Jun Mo Xie had given them, the eight senior Beast Kings had already recovered back to their peak strengths. With the addition of the Spirit Vein’s help, they’d all charged all the way to the level of Second level Saint Venerable!
As for Big Bear and the other new generation Beast Kings, they had also reached the First level of Saint Emperor as well!
The several hundred Xuan Beasts that originally had the strength to transform into human form had also advanced greatly, reaching at least the Third level of the Saint realm. This was not just 10 or eight people… it was over 500 people!
However… the strength improvements had also stopped here…
Because, the Spirit Vein fragments that Mei Xue Yan had brought back had already been completely used up…
Apparently, there were still several thousand Xuan Beasts waiting for their turn in Tian Fa Forest…
Hearing this figure that wasn’t exactly clear, large droplets of sweat rolled down Jun Mo Xie’s back…
From the looks of it, this strength is already sufficient to destroy… this world…
However, this upgrade was not without a price. All those that had advanced had all received a round of Heavenly Tribulation!
In this half a month, the entire Tian Fa Forest was filled with dense clouds and endless lightning… there would often be circ.u.mstances where tens of people were caught up in the same Heavenly Tribulation, greatly increasing its fearsomeness…
Each of them were struck by lightning so badly that their faces were grey and their hairs were fried. The more serious ones had even been smacked back into their original forms, with injuries all over their bodies… Even Big Bear had all his fat fried clean, nearly losing his life…
Apparently, this fellow had been overly exhausted after he brought his wife back, resulting in his essence being damaged…
Even though Jun Mo Xie had already cautioned them laboriously and given them all kinds of things to help them, two people from the Heaven Destroyer Team had unfortunately been killed by their Heavenly Tribulation… As for the Tian Fa Xuan Beasts, over 10 had their form and souls extinguished as well…
However, compared to the number that was successful in overcoming the Heavenly Tribulation, that was an insignificant number…
Taking the Thousand Evils and Ten Thousand Poisons Fruit that the Xuan Beasts had been relying on in the past to advance, the percentage of success was only two or three percent. Compared to now, the danger level of advancing could be said to be nearly nonexistent, with a never before seen high rate of success.
Jun Mo Xie’s eyes nearly popped out of his head, and it was already a great accomplishment that he hadn’t fallen off his chair… Mei Xue Yan had only brought back five, six pieces of fist sized Spirit Vein Fragments, but it had actually achieved such a splendid result! Perhaps splendid was not the right word for this. This result should be described with terrifying! Exceedingly shocking!
My goodness!
If the entire Spirit Vein was completely used up… wouldn’t he be able to create a one million strong army of Saint Venerables?!
Jun Mo Xie nearly stopped breathing when he thought of that…
However, thinking about it was all there was to it. Young Master Jun would never do such a wasteful thing…
Before he could wake up from his shock and joy, Young Master Jun was directly grabbed up by Mei Xue Yan. Before the eyes of the entire forest, Mei Xue Yan carried Young Master Jun and pulled him all the way to a small hall.
This was a shared living hall surrounded by a few doors. This was a special residence made for the girls, for them to live together. They were all staying in different rooms, with a common hall in the middle.
This setup was rather similar to the structure that the Nine Nether First Young Master had left in Blizzard Silver City. A large common area, with many hallways which led to other rooms…
With a pu sound, Jun Mo Xie was thrown roughly onto a small stool before the table. When he looked up, he saw four beautiful faces looking intently at him, as if there were four mothers lecturing a son!
From the looks of it, the trial was about to begin!
Mei Xue Yan and Guan Qing Han sat in the middle, while Dugu Xiao Yi and Han Yan Meng sat at the two ends. En, looks like these girls have even determined their own positions internally…
But this matter doesn’t seem to have anything to do with that la.s.s Han Yan Meng? What is she to do?
As the four pairs of eyes bored into him, Young Master Jun could not help but to hiccup unnaturally.
This… what is going on? Are they getting ready to administer torture to force a confession?
Four pairs of eyes were locked coldly onto Jun Mo Xie, and even with Young Master Jun’s strong will, he felt somewhat naked in front of them…
“Ai… this… this isn’t right?” Young Master Jun attempted to struggle. “This… we’re all family here, and we share the same blanket… we could have just talked about it privately on the bed… but what is this la.s.s doing here as well?”
He was naturally referring to Han Yan Meng.
From the way he saw it, after he said those words, that la.s.s Dugu Xiao Yi would probably not be affected, while Guan Qing Han would probably snort and leave given her personality. As for Han Yan Meng, she would most probably leave in rage as well…
If everything proceeded as he expected, he would only need to deal with Mei Xue Yan and Dugu Xiao Yi for now. That would be much simpler… Because, there was practically no need to deal with Dugu Xiao Yi at all. If other girls did not fall for her Jun Mo Xie, it would instead be more infuriating for her! Big brother Mo Xie is so outstanding, and you actually don’t like him? What is wrong with you?
That would leave only Mei Xue Yan. It was difficult to clap with only one hand, so without any support, it would easy to handle her…
But contrary to his expectations, although Guan Qing Han’s face turned red, she did not move at all. As for Han Yan Meng, she only snorted lightly and raised her chin in defiance.
“En, I’ve neglected to tell you one thing just now.” Mei Xue Yan said coldly. “Madam Han from the Blizzard Silver City had asked Third Uncle and Third Aunt to ask on their behalf, for a marriage between you and Second Young Miss Han Yan Meng… Grandfather and Mother have already agreed. With the agreement of the elders and the two side’s parents, the marriage agreement is already settled. Right now, Han Yan Meng is already a part of our Jun Family…”
Dugu Xiao Yi smiled proudly and nodded. “That’s exactly what happened. Now, she even has to call me Elder Sister! That is the only condition I raised when Mother sought our opinion…”
Han Yan Meng’s face turned red and she stared fiercely at Dugu Xiao Yi. “What are you so proud about? You’re not even as old as I am; don’t you feel any shame…”
Dugu Xiao Yi snorted and ignored her. “Our Jun Family’s rule is that whoever entered here first is the bigger one! What does it have to do with age! In any case, this Young Lady is now your elder sister!” Han Yan Meng was completely speechless, and she stared angrily at Dugu Xiao Yi. From the looks of it, these two little la.s.ses had quite a bit of quarrels between them.
“To think you have the face to call yourself Elder Sister. Which time did you not lose the most when we play mahjong? And to actually have the face to borrow money from me…” Han Yan Meng said disdainfully.
Dugu Xiao Yi gritted her teeth hatefully. “If I don’t borrow some money… how would I recoup my losses? One would not necessarily lose every gamble. You d.a.m.n la.s.s, not even willing to help me win a little. I gave you such obvious hints every time… but you wouldn’t give me any tiles…”
“You kicked my legs swollen everytime we play mahjong! Do you only know how to speak about others and not yourself?” Han Yan Meng rolled her eyes and turned around haughtily. At the same time, she took off her money pouch and shook it with a smirk on her face. A clear clinging sund rang out from inside, and Dugu Xiao Yi’s eye immediately welled up with tears, as if she couldn’t wait to s.n.a.t.c.h that pouch over…
Jun Mo Xie’s eyes widened with shock…
So it wasn’t just him attracting one outside… there was actually one more gained at home, and he was actually still the last to know! The orders of his parents? Marriage agreement? So this world was also such an imperfect world ah…
No wonder the four of them had come out together to welcome him when he came back. At that time, he thought that the Han la.s.s was only joining in for fun…
“En, I almost forgot. Xiao Yi, go and call Qian Xun and Princess Ling Meng over here, and Ke’er as well. This matter concerns them as well, and they also have a right to know…” Mei Xue Yan wielded her authority and instructed in a calm manner.
“Order received!” Dugu Xiao Yi jumped up and walked off in a proud manner, as if she was a great general that had been sent off to the frontlines!
Jun Mo Xie’s sweat poured down his back. From the looks of it, this situation was no longer four mothers lecturing a son. Instead, it’d become seven countries contending for hegemony…
In a short time, all the girls had already gathered. When Green Hunter and the rest saw this strange scene, they could not help but to look at each other with some confusion. They completely could not understand the current situation.
“Sisters, I’m sure everyone knows by now that Mo Xie went out this time in consideration for all of our futures.” Mei Xue Yan said lightly. “Us Xuan cultivators would be able to enjoy an exceedingly long lifespan that could last for even a thousand years or 10,000 years once we reached the peak… However, the prime years of girls are limited, and it is easy for beauty to fade away. Even a country toppling beauty is not exempt from the withering effects of time… Mo Xie had went out this time precisely to find some miraculous spirit herbs that could help us retain our youth for a long time!”
As Mei Xue Yan spoke to here, the entire group gasped aloud.
Miraculous spirit herbs that could retain youth for a long time… do such fabled things actually exist for real!?
“Then… has he found them?” Dugu Xiao Yi was the most impatient, and she asked first, clearly antic.i.p.ating the answer. This question of hers also reflected the hearts of the other girls.
