Chapter 939: I’ll Lend You a Gut, Do You Dare to Kill Me?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Gu Fei Yu was stunned for a while. Then he suddenly said coldly. “I may really be no big deal, but…”
Jun Mo Xie cut him off. “Since you know that you are no big deal, then what ‘but’ are you trying to say in front of me?” He spoke in a disdainful tone as he looked at Gu Fei Yu from the corner of his eyes. “I may be untalented, but I’ve been told by Master Cao that I have the Free and Natural Physique! Asides from the ancestor of Xuan cultivation, the Nine Nether First Young Master, for 10,000 years, I’m the only other person that has it! I may not be a big deal as an individual, but my physique is a very big deal.”
Jun Mo Xie looked at Gu Fei Yu and grinned. “You are no big deal; I’m a little bit more of a deal than you, so I’m a bigger deal than you. Do you admit to what I’m saying?!” There was a tinge of mockery in his eye. “Therefore… you have no right to be saying anything before me. Understand? Please remember it in the future ah!”
“A physique is what you are naturally born with! And not what you worked hard to achieve, so what do you have to be bragging about?” Gu Fei Yu yelled angrily, about to go mad.
“Why can’t I brag?! Precisely because I had two impressive parents, I am able to have the Free and Natural Physique that is rarely seen from ancient times till now! So how could it not be something worth bragging about? What sort of logic do you have?” Jun Mo Xie looked at him like a cat toying with a mouse. “Young Master Gu, from what you are saying, are you resenting your own parents for being too useless?”
Gu Fei Yu was about to retort ‘I did not say that’, but he was so angry he couldn’t speak.
Jun Mo Xie sighed softly and shook his head, feeling sorry as he looked at Gu Fei Yu with a look of pity. “I may be of humble talent and shallow learning, but I know the sentences, ‘A father’s love is like a mountain, A mother’s love is like the ocean’. Your parents gave birth to you with great difficulty and painstakingly brought you up, but today, just because your physique is inferior to others, you think that your own parents are trash? Gu Fei Yu, how can you be like this?”
Jun Mo Xie lamented. “Filial piety is the most important of all virtues! You are really unfilial in having such thoughts! Disgraceful! How can you be loyal when you are unfilial? So you are definitely an unloyal person! You are unfilial and unloyal, and full of resentment to your own parents and higher-ups. How can you be true to your friends? So similarly, you are unbenevolent and unjust! Gu Fei Yu! How can someone that is unfilial, unloyal, unbenevolent, and unjust like you have the cheek to remain alive? And here you are, so full of yourself and bullying others… You you you… Do you still have any shame?!”
A look of admiration appeared in Little Beansprout’s eyes. Heavens ah, this Free and Natural Physique Young Master Mo is too amazing, practically scolding someone to a whole new level. Others said that the Free and Natural Physique he was born with was due to a stroke of luck, yet with a couple of tugs, he smacked a huge hat of unfilial, unloyal, unbenevolent, unjust, and unashamed on Gu Fei Yu’s head…
It seemed that there was no one else in the whole of the Misty Illusory Manor who had this type of ability to make an irrelevant interpretation! Truly great eloquence ah, as expected of the legendary Free and Natural Physique, being so fluent even in his scolding of others.
Miao Xiao Miao looked at Jun Mo Xie, the aloofness in her eyes finally changing. This person was definitely one who showed no mercy to his enemies! Killing to the last, hitting someone who was down was most likely his forte!
Someone like this was definitely not good to deal with!
Gu Fei Yu was mad with anger, letting out a low growl. He lunged forward, the long sword at his waist as unsheathed in a flash and pointing at Jun Mo Xie’s throat! The sword glistened before Jun Mo Xie’s throat, its chilling intent causing gooseb.u.mps to break out beneath his neck.
There was no change in Jun Mo Xie’s expression. He did not even flinch. Instead, he looked at Gu Fei Yu tauntingly. “Gu Fei Yu, since you have already used your sword, why don’t you just stab it through directly. Just stab it over boldly! If the guts in your body are not enough, I can lend you one! Do you really dare to kill me?” He mocked disdainfully.
As he said this, Young Master Jun lifted his feet with the intention of taking a step forward, ignoring the sword pointing at his throat.
Gu Fei Yu’s gaze began to heat up as his entire face turned red, beads of hot perspiration appearing on his forehead, his wrists even trembling. With Jun Mo Xie’s step towards him, he couldn’t help but take a big step backwards. Because of the disparity in these two steps, the sword that was just millimeters away from Jun Mo Xie’s throat deviated from its original position.
Gu Fei Yu tightened his grip, green veins popping out. Although it took a great amount of strength to maintain this position of the sword, and he was unwilling to keep it, he really did not dare to truly stab it forward!
Gu Fei Yu’s eyes were also popping out from the strain, red veins appearing across them…
The reason why Gu Fei Yu had such great reputation in the Misty Illusory Manor, asides from his own influential background, was because he was an intelligent person. He knew clearly that the person before him had the rare Free and Natural Physique and all the big shots of Misty Illusory Manor valued it greatly!
In the hearts of these big shots, they would rather die than have anything happen to this Free and Natural Physique! If he really stabbed this sword through, his entire family clan would be chased into the depths of h.e.l.l by the furious big shots before tomorrow!
Stabbing this sword was the equivalent of committing suicide, and it was one at the price of the whole family clan peris.h.i.+ng with him. But if he didn’t stab it through, and just kept it back like this, it was really hard for him to swallow this insult. Having it stuck at his throat, unable to spit it out, yet unable to swallow it…. It could be imagined how horrible it felt…
But Young Master Jun was calm and unhurried. He had this ultimate trump card in his hand right now. Why couldn’t he make good use of it and humiliate and toy with this b*stard to death? Even if Gu Fei Yu really acted recklessly, with Young Master Jun’s current strength of a fourth level Saint Emperor, and Gu Fei Yu’s mere prowess of a level three Spirit Xuan, even if he hits a vital spot, it couldn’t do any damage to him!
So no matter how you looked at it, in terms of forces and strength, Young Master Jun had absolute confidence! Besides, if he noticed danger, Young Master Jun could immediately vanish, and with Gu Fei Yu’s abilities, he wouldn’t even be able to catch it.
Jun Mo Xie smiled coldly and took another step forward, putting his neck to that sword that was already off its aim. This sort of incomprehensible move had scared Gu Fei Yu to the point he retreated backwards rapidly. Jun Mo Xie mocked, “Why? You don’t dare to? Since you don’t dare to… Then why did you draw your sword just now? Hm? Is this a toy? Did you think that you are still a child? Hm? Do I need to find you a nanny?!”
With Young Master Jun’s current strength, he could easily crush people like Gu Fei Yu with his pinky finger. But… the situation was a little awkward right now. First, he could not release his real strength in case he accidentally revealed his ident.i.ty. Second, Jun Mo Xie intended to blow the matter up to see what the bottom line of Misty Illusory Manor was like. Third,… Miao Xiao Miao was present!
The time, place, and people involved were a little awkward, especially the other two who were present. Miao Xiao Miao and Little Beansprout, two who could not be bribed and would be a major problem that cannot be shunned.
Miao Xiao Miao’s father was the one who guarded the Spiritual Herbal Gardens, his ultimate destination for this journey! And that place seemed to be an extremely secretive independent s.p.a.ce; even if he had all the abilities of the world, there was no chance for him to enter it without sufficient information…
Even Cao Guo Feng, with his status, was not allowed into the Spiritual Herbal Gardens. It could be imagined how tight the security of that place was!
So it was absolutely necessary to have a good relations.h.i.+p with ‘Female Ancestor’ Miao Xiao Miao. Not only must it be good, he had to use it as an opportunity to sneak into the Spiritual Herbal Gardens…
This concerned the success or failure of this trip into Misty Illusory Manor, so it was of utmost important!
So the first step to developing a good relations.h.i.+p with Young Lady Miao was definitely to leave a deep impression in her heart, the more unforgettable, the more ideal! Let her know that he did tolerate contempt and was aware that he would not be a servant in the future, making sure that she knew that he had endless and boundless value in his future!
Only like this would it attract Miao Xiao Miao’s attention to befriend him. If he was merely one with the Free and Natural Physique, yet was a mere country b.u.mpkin, he was just a very lucky fool at most, and in the future, he would be an idiot that only knew about cultivating and not the ways of the world. Even if he became number one in the world and was unrivaled in the world, he would only be made use of by people and would never be taken seriously by them.
Because those people with aspirations definitely had ways to control someone like this. Someone invincible, but brainless and had no wisdom of his own would only become a fighting machine that others could easily manipulate.
Mere exceptional martial talent without intelligence that corresponded would only end up in a huge tragedy. Jun Mo Xie had deep thoughts and feelings about this when reading The Romance of the Three Kingdoms in his previous life. The number one in military power during the period of the Three Kingdoms was undoubtedly Lü Bu, and yet because he was not intelligent, he was manipulated by others for his entire life, at the end, captured alive and decapitated! Even his wife and children had to suffer the same fate…
Marquis Wen Lü Bu was a great example. Many people harboring intentions used him like a weapon, only remembering him when they needed to frame someone or required his military strength and impulsiveness to achieve their goals. No one truly cared about him. Even though they all knew that he was invincible…
So Jun Mo Xie wanted to portray his potential and match it to his own physique, then show off his perseverance. Revealing his hidden intentions of standing at the peak, his untameable att.i.tude, making it clear that he was not someone who would be easily controlled by others and may even be an extremely dangerous and terrifying person…
Only someone like this was one that no one was willing to offend.
