After the smack was a bone-chilling voice, “Who does this dog belongto?”


“Did you just hit me?!” He could finally speak again but the slap drewfresh blood at the corner of his mouth again. He was so angry that he couldskin and swallow the two in front of him alive!


Right then, Mo Xuanzun stopped smiling and his aura changed threehundred sixty degrees. The sense of being superior than the entire world exudedfrom him naturally. Between his eyes were superiority and icy arrogance. Atthis very moment, everybody presence felt a pressure coming at them, includingOld Man Ying.


Cheng Xiao Xiao, standing right next to him, was genuinely surprised.She glanced at him. She never thought he still have this side of him. Perhapshe did deserve to have the nickname genius mathematician!


“Hehe, guye1. This little scoundrel was the eldest son of theGu’s from city of Yin. He claimed that he was our Miss’s fiance and came tocall off the betrothal!” smiled Old Man Ying as he went and stood next to MoXuanzun.


Hearing that, Cheng Xiao Xiao’s fair cheek blushed. Staring at him withher almond eyes, she said, “Old Man Ying, do you want me to mute you?”


Contrarily to Cheng Xiao Xiao’s annoyance from embarra.s.sment, Mo Xuanzunwas very fond of Old Man Ying. Or, one should say that he was ecstatic from it!


“You are quite good!” And this was the first time he looked direct atthe old man. Sizing him up quickly, he was a bit surprised. It was no smallfeat to broke through to martial monarch.


But he didn’t comment on that. He turned to the man on his other sideand asked respectfully, “Father-in-law, is that true?”

“Ugh…” Cheng Biyuan wasn’t sure how to react to him addressing him ashis father-in-law left and right. He certainly did want to offend someone ofhis prestigious background. He had no choice but to pretend that he didn’t hearit. Nodding, he said, “Not exactly. They had rejected the betrothal years ago.They were merely here to be rude and cause trouble today!

Guye, they were going to use the backing of Pillar’s Clan ofMagical Swords to force Miss to get down on her knees and bow to young masterGu!” continued Old Man Ying!


“Pillar’s Clan of Magical Swords?” The name-dropping did not phase MoXuanzun. He scanned everybody who were there and asked coldly, “Which one ofthem are from Pillar’s Clan of Magical Swords?”


Everybody turned and looked at the man in black together, giving him nochance of hiding but exposed completed in front of Mo Xuanzun.


“Greetings to Young Master Mo from Zhao Danyu,” said the man in blackwhile kneeling on one knee and lowered his head solemnly and respectfully.


With Mo Xuanzun’s status, even Zhao Danyu’s young master must bow to himrespectfully. And he was but a little outside disciple2. Him being able tostand in front of this young master was already a blessing; how would he dareto be imprudent to him!


His behavior and mannerism shocked everyone there. The imperious andarrogant man in black just knelt down in front of the genius mathematician ofTemple of Divine Plans. His behavior almost have everyone’s eyes popped out oftheir sockets.


Mo Xuanzun merely glanced at him through squinted eyes and said slowly,“I remember you. You are one of thefollowers of Ning Xiao, the ninth out of the top ten disciples. Am I right?”

“Yes, I am an outside disciple and follower of shi xiong Ning!”Zhao Danyu broke out in cold sweat. He dare not be slow in his responses!

The conversation between them enlightened everyone else. The master ofyoung master Gu was but an outside disciple of Clan of Magical Swords, thefollower of one of the top disciples. Anything one looked at it, he himself wa.s.still a servant of someone else.


Granted, none of these cultivator would even want to step on the toes ofa servant of the Clan of Magical Swords.

Note:


1. How the bribe’s family refer to the “son-in-law”. Using pingyin forlack of a good equivalent in English. Basically Old Man Ying was referring togenius mathematician as Cheng Xiao Xiao’s husband.


2. An official disciple would move in and reside within theorganization. “Outside disciples” are the less official, second cla.s.s ones.
