Chapter 918: Outdo the Other’s Shamelessness
“You know the position of our Wei family in Wu Cang City. Over the years, if our Wei family hadn’t done anything to guard the Golden Pill Sect’s territory for them, it would have been destroyed by others. It’s fine even if they just didn’t show any grat.i.tude, but they started attacking our Wei family as soon as they got a firm foothold,” Wei Zhixuan continued dramatically.
“Such a thing actually happened?” Yue Pingjian raised a brow.
“Yes! Originally, I had found a bottle of Gold Transformation Jade Liquid, which I planned to bring to the Flowing Clouds Sect because I heard that Second Cousin is the Yue family’s expert talent that is born once every thousand years. I wanted to give the bottle of Gold Transformation Jade Liquid to you, but it was s.n.a.t.c.hed away by them! That was not the worse incident though. When I went over to discuss having a share in the mine, their sect master didn’t follow the rules of the sects and attacked me, forcing me to sign an agreement to seize my Wei family’s property.” Wei Zhixuan was talking nonsense with his eyes open, not ashamed at all.
He didn’t blush, but several of his subordinates did. ‘Lord Sect Master certainly has a talent for being shameless. You willingly signed the agreement yourself, and the Jade Peak Sect’s property was gambled away by you. You were the one that hit out cruelly at the start. Why does everything change after it comes out of your mouth?’
“Oh, hearing you say that, the Golden Pill Sect really does seem a bit too arrogant.” Yue Pingjian didn’t care about Wei Zhixuan’s personal grievances with the sect, but hearing about the Gold Transformation Jade Liquid, his eyes lit up. He had heard of this kind of spiritual liquid to cleanse the veins and meridians, and it was said that a bottle was hidden in the treasure store of the Flowing Clouds Sect. However, with his status in the Yue family, those good things would never be his.
The old man was spoiling the little nuisance that had just been born. Even if there was something good in the future, it would not fall into Yue Pingjian’s hands. So, when he heard about the Gold Transformation Jade Liquid, his heart started pounding. ‘If I could grab that spiritual liquid and cleanse my veins and meridians, my strength would definitely improve. No matter how much the old man loves that little pest, he wouldn’t be able to compare to me then!’
“Besides just being arrogant, I heard that the Golden Pill Sect found the crystal mine left by their ancestors, and are recruiting troops and buying horses everywhere, intending to swallow up the surrounding sects. Our Jade Peak Sect is one of those sects, so if they continue to grow strong, I am afraid that sooner or later, the five major sects would suffer.” Wei Zhixuan happily continued pouring fuel into the fire.
“How despicable! They’re just a sect that has been destroyed for thousands of years. They have just returned to the sacred realm, yet they dare think of attacking the other sects! If their arrogance is not kept in check, then they really won’t know what kind of a place the sacred realm is.” Yue Pingjian’s eyes lit up again when he heard about the crystal mine. If he got the Golden Pill Sect’s crystal mine and the Gold Transformation Jade Liquid, would he still need to worry about that little menace robbing him of succeeding the family business in the future?
“Yes, second cousin. So I came to visit my second uncle this time to ask for his help in winning back my family property, and to also get rid of this threat.” Wei Zhixuan nodded vigorously like a chicken pecking at rice.
“You don’t need to trouble my father for this matter, I’ll just help you teach them a lesson when the time comes. The Golden Pill Sect really doesn’t know the difference between good and bad. Your Wei family has taken care of their sect ruins for so many years and they didn’t even bother to show you grat.i.tude. This time, not only will I get them to return your property, but I will make them give you a share of the crystal mine of eighty to ninety percent,” Yue Pingjian said arrogantly.
It was really one trying to outdo the other’s shamelessness.
