PSSST
With a flick of his finger, a sharp qi shot out, traversing thedistances of several thousand miles.
PANG!
In the blink of an eye, where the qi from his finger hit, the swordthat was carefully-forced and st.u.r.dy like steel immediately split into two and flewout of the young man’s hand!
“Who was it!”
The young man looked around startled. His voice rocked the valley, yethe failed to notice the man and the crane up in the sky.
Just because he didn’t notice them didn’t mean n.o.body noticed them.Eleventh elder already noticed the man and crane from afar. He dropped to hisknees immediately and said, “Thank you, senior, for saving our lives!”
“Thank you, senior!”
Eleventh elder and his entire family all got onto their knees and thankthe man in the air.
“Who, who are you?”
The dozen or so folks from the Cheng’s looked uncertainly at the man andthe crane; they had never seen anyone flying on the back of some mystical beastbefore.
One of the young martial spiritualist saw that the man on top of thecrane was only around twenty or so. He felt very unreconciled and shouted athim, “Hey, kid. How dare you interfere with our business, you have a deathwish?!”
Immediately after he finished saying that, the middle-age man next tohim turned pale. Did he have a death wish?
Mo Xuanzun, sitting on top of the crane, his face was cold, his eyesburning with anger. He flipped his fingers again and another shot of qifired off.
BAP!
A whole appeared in the middle of the imprudent young man’s forehead.His body shuddered a couple of times and he collapsed.
Those remaining were now trembling from fear.
They now realized that they were no match to the man on the crane.
The middle-aged man, controlling the fear in him, cupped his hand andsaid, “Senior, I belong to the Emperor City’s Cheng’s. Please show us somemercy!”
“Hrm, you and your lot. Tried to kill in broad daylight, have you showedthem any mercy? You even killed the young and weak family members mercilessly.You all deserved to die!”
His voice nonchalant, like he had no ill feelings at all. Yet his wordswere telling the Cheng’s that if they had the intent to kill others, therewould be others out there who’d kill them.
“Senior, we admit guilt. We will leave right away!” The middle-aged manlooked sufficiently frightened. He dare not risk any delay but chose to leave immediately.
“Say, why did you try to kill those people?”
Even though Mo Xuanzun had saved the people, he still want to get downto the bottom of it all. He didn’t want to become a co-conspirator, nor did hewant to kill any innocents.
“…..”
The middle-aged man lowered his head and dare not respond.
Seeing him like that, a cold beam of light crossed Mo Xuanzun’s deep anddark eyes. Turning toward one of the people kneeling on the ground, he said,“You, tell me!”
“Yes!” He voice sounded like it came from right next to one’s ears.Eleventh elder straightened his back and, cupping his hands at him, said,“Senior, I am not sure about the real reason behind it all either. But we havebeen hunted by the our member since we have been banished.”
“Banished? Why was that?”
“Senior, it was because I couldn’t just sit around and watch anylonger….”
Eleventh elder recounted the entire story about Cheng Biyuan. From howhe was injured and lost all his cultivation and was viewed as garbage by hisfamily to all sorts of unfair treatment and bullying.
He continued to tell him about how Cheng Biyuan had relocated to WillowsVillage and was now in possession of mystical well and mystical animals. Andhow the Cheng’s started to plot against Cheng Biyuan to take his possessionsand how he was then banished for refusing to be part of the plan. He wasbanished and now they were trying to have him killed.
“d.a.m.n it! Shameless! Unbelievable!”
Mo Xuanzun was completely enraged by the back story and the evil plansof the Cheng’s. His handsome place was cold as ice and his entire body exude abone-chilling coldness.
“Senior, this, this was decided by the family. It wasn’t our ideas!” Themiddle-aged man was full of shame. Everything the Eleventh Elder said was true;he couldn’t find any retort even if he had wanted to.
