Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As unwilling as Jun Mo Xie was feeling on the inside, his mouth spoke otherwise. “Blizzard Silver City has suffered so many great loss because of me—as the perpetrator, how could I just leave like this? No matter what, I should try to help a little…”
Han Feng Xue, who was near a hundred years in age, was on the verge of suffering an internal injury from the shamelessness of Jun Mo Xie. He quickly shook his hand and refused. “No need. There is no loss too major. Our people can do the tidying ourselves easily…” But his heart was bleeding. The entire Blizzard Silver City is destroyed; we’ve lost almost ninety percent of all our valuables, and rebuilding will require another large sum of money which we don’t know where to get from….
Although he was sabotaging himself by refusing, as long as Jun Mo Xie could go away as quickly as possible, it would all be worth it …
Jun Mo Xie rolled his eyes, then whispered into Mei Xue Yan’s ear. Although he didn’t clearly state what was happening, it was enough for Mei Xue Yan to understand that something peculiar prevented him from leaving…
Mei Xue Yan frowned. “Since Mo Xie wishes to aid in the rebuilding of Blizzard Silver City, how about I bring the troops back first? After all, we cannot afford to have any delays on that side!”
Jun Mo Xie considered for a while, but he couldn’t make a decision. There were nine Saints over there! Even though Mei Xue Yan was a fourth level Venerable, she might not be able to make a big difference even if she headed back. Using Xuan Beasts to launch a brutal battle would only result in a huge loss even if they won! This was not a good decision, but the longer they remained here, the greater the danger Tian Xiang would be in! What should he do?
“It’s a good idea if you guys return first!” Jun Mo Xie gritted his teeth, eyes turning a little red. “Xue Yan, you must be extremely careful going back; if anything already happened to Tian Xiang, bring the army back to Tian Fa Forest immediately. Don’t take any actions on your own! Do not seek revenge! Wait for me to return first before we decide anything! You only need to send the Crane King over to inform me. If nothing has happened, that would be the best. Just pretend to comply and drag as much time as you can! If they are too demanding, then tell them that my master has set a date to meet them for a battle to determine victory and defeat next month! We have to hold them back no matter what! Remember, you must wait for me to go back! Before that, do not act on your own!”
Mei Xue Yan agreed seriously. “Don’t worry, we will not hastily go against nine Saints before our own Saints from Tian Fa are out. Even Beast Kings stand no chance against a Saint. I am clear of the advantages and disadvantages.”
After saying this, Mei Xue Yan whistled. All the Xuan Beast got into formation neatly. Jun Wu Yi, Dongfang San Jian, Sikong An Ye, and the rest also got ready to head back.
Han Yan Yao knelt before her mother to bid her goodbye. They embraced each other—it was another inevitable separation.
But this time, no matter what, Han Yan Yao was to follow back to Tian Xiang.
What was unexpected was under the intentions of her mother, Han Yan Meng was to follow Dongfang Wen Xin and her sister back to Tian Xiang.
Although Xue Shuang Qing couldn’t bear to part with her daughter, she loved her daughter dearly, so she had to make such a decision. Blizzard Silver City was currently in ruins and required rebuilding; Han Yan Meng will only suffer were she to stay behind. Even lodging would be difficult; what more other necessities? She might as well go back to Tian Xiang—no matter what she’d live more comfortably there. Furthermore, there was no more grudge between the two families; even if she missed her daughter, she could go and visit anytime.
Also, by leaving the younger daughter there, she could also improve her relations.h.i.+p with her future son-in-law. This had no disadvantages to Blizzard Silver City…
Dongfang Wen Xin knew the intentions behind Xue Shuang Qing’s actions. Bidding farewell, she got aboard the back of a flying Xuan Beast with Guan Qing Han and the rest. Mei Xue Yan whistled loudly. In the heavy snow, thousands of Xuan Beast took flight together, flying back to Tian Xiang.
Only two people were left: Jun Mo Xie and Condor King!
Jun Mo Xie kept Condor King behind because of his speed. His flying speed was even faster than the Crane King’s! After resolving the matter here, it would save a lot of time getting back.
“Why are you not leaving? What are your intentions?” Han Feng Xue glared angrily. He was on the verge of going berserk… Everyone has left, but this annoying fellow stayed behind! This is absolutely insufferable!
Why not leave everyone behind and let this person go on his own! Why is it that everyone leaves but he remains behind? Why must he stick so awfully close to me?! What kind of person is this!
Jun Mo Xie was just as equally frustrated. You think I’m willing to stay behind and act chummy with your old a.s.s? There’s nowhere to look for pretty girls in this freezing place! And I only have a dark looking Condor King as company….
Hongjun PaG.o.da, Hongjun PaG.o.da, you really make me uncomfortable this time! Such a crucial time… you… You’ve really tossed me into the fire!
“Senior, I say, shouldn’t we go and take a look to see how much of Blizzard Silver City is destroyed? If there is anything we can still use.” Jun Mo Xie suggested eagerly.
Han Feng Xue flew away angrily, feeling that if he looked at this fellow for another moment, he would be driven him nuts…
Xue Shuang Qing was entertaining Jun Mo Xie extremely intimately, walking along slowly. Her behavior made Han Zhan Meng a little jealous, feeling unhappy with his wife. When this fellow met me that day he was almost shouting at me, but you’re treating him so well right now… If other people were unaware, seeing how gentle and considerate you are of him, they might mistake him for your son…
Han Zhan Meng was unaware that his wife was working on building a good relations.h.i.+p with her future son-in-law… The more she looked at him, the more pleased she felt. She felt even more pleased with Jun Mo Xie than her other son-in-law, Jun Wu Yi!
A handsome appearance aside, in the millions of years of the Xuan Xuan Continent, countless of prodigies have appeared, but was there one who was able to accomplish as many groundbreaking achievements as my son-in-law? At the mere age of eighteen? No wonder his mother was so proud!
How could anyone pa.s.s on a son-in-law as excellent as this!
So the more Xue Shuang Qing looked, the more she admired him—even that heretical aura around him was accepted by her as a cool and stylish personality….
Young Master Jun was also having a headache, not sure of how to address this gorgeous madam, who was the mother-in-law of his third uncle. What should he address her as? Grandmother-in-law?
But this issue was resolved by Xue Shuang Qing. “Mo Xie, your mother and I are now extremely close friends. You can just address me as ‘Aunt’; we are all part of the pugilistic world, why bother so much?”
This sentence left Jun Mo Xie dumbfounded.
What? Even if we are part of the pugilistic world, should it be so… reckless? If I address you as such, then doesn’t that mean I should go back and address my third uncle as third brother? Or like brother-in-law? Then… can I still keep my a.s.s?…
Thus the two continued to chat as they made their way to Blizzard Silver City.
Tian Xiang City.
Li You Ran had began his operation on the second day after Jun Mo Xie left with the rest.
With three Saints as his aid, Li You Ran felt mighty and powerful. But at the same time, he was a little frightened.
He did not ever think that Jun Mo Xie, the person he had always viewed as his rival, would be this powerful!
To require three Holy Lands to send experts of a Saint cultivation!
And to send nine!
In this world, where a Venerable was powerful to stand at the top of the food chain, what was the concept behind sending out nine Saints? Facing such a line up, Li You Ran could only feel terrified!
He couldn’t even estimate how powerful those forces were! He only knew that any Saint could effortlessly destroy the entire Tian Xiang City.
This was an unimaginable level of power—and nine were sent out just to deal with a single Jun Mo Xie, a mere Jun Family! With such capabilities, they were still wary and careful instead of simply wiping out the entire Jun Family! What did this mean? What did it suggest? Even at the mention of that mysterious master of Jun Mo Xie, all nine of them had a grave expression upon their faces!
Li You Ran could vaguely tell!
These nine Saints had no confidence in winning that mysterious master of Jun Mo Xie’s!
Then what stage was Jun Mo Xie at now? What stage was his master at?
Li You Ran no longer dared to think about these matters because thinking about them was enough to make his blood run cold. Someone like that,was his opponent in the past? He was fortunate enough to still be alive….
All three Saints had given the same suggestion at the same time. Test the waters first! See what stage that person is at first before deciding! And since that person is staying at the Jun Family’s, then there will definitely be some sort of clue, no matter how good he is at hiding!
So the most important place right now was the Jun Family’s residence!
So Li You Ran had absolutely no time to return home. He had gone over to Second Prince’s to establish a base, then rushed off to make arrangements with the people from three Holy Lands. Then on the second morning he returned to Tian Xiang, he brought the three Saints along and headed over to the Jun Family Residence.
He euphemistically called it a visit!
And Li You Ran had a pretty good excuse: Princess Ling Meng!
Princess Ling Meng was the Emperor’s daughter and also once Li You Ran’s dream lover. Now that she is resting in the Jun Residence, then it’s not too much for me to pay a visit, isn’t it?
This reason was completely logical!
So Li You Ran made his way over.
The three Saints were rather cooperative as well, dressing up as people from his family and following behind him. Although Li You Ran looked lighthearted on the surface, he was extremely anxious on the inside.
For the past few days, during their discussions on the journey, as well as meeting the nine Saints last night, Li You Ran developed a hunch: Jun Mo Xie’s master was extremely powerful! So powerful that perhaps n.o.body was capable of fighting against him!
A feeling like this made him terrified
