The Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master turned his hand and stabbed the sword into the ground. The black flame entered the ground and instantly burnt through it, spreading outwards slowly…
“It really can burn anything…” The Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master breathed out a long line of air and said. “This Young Master is truly shocked…”
Jun Mo Xie chuckled lightly in response and said in a humble manner, “This is just a small trick; everyone, I’ve incurred your ridicule…”
Everyone’s lips twitched uncontrollably in response. If such a terrifying skill is considered a small trick, wouldn’t your “large tricks” burn the entire world?
That thought was not wrong; if Jun Mo Xie had enough spirit energy to sustain the technique, even setting the entire world aflame would not be an impossible or strange matter…
“Young Master Jun’s self proclaimed title of Evil Monarch truly lives up to the word ‘Evil’ ah. This action of yours is indeed ruthless and toxic! However…” Cheng Yin Xiao’s eyes narrowed darkly as he looked at Jun Mo Xie. “Today, you killed a person of our Holy Lands in such a brazen matter. For this, you must give an explanation to the three of us!”
“Explanation? What explanation? What explanation do you want me to give you?” Jun Mo Xie smiled in a strange manner. “The four of you came here and made yourselves referees and judges… but did this Young Master ask you to do that? Considering your statuses as renowned seniors, this Young Master chose to close an eye and allowed it since you all wanted to play judge. Only, as judges… there should at least be an attitude of fairness, right? Tell me, was there any mistake in my understanding?”
“That is a matter of course. Judges naturally needs to be fair! Fairness and righteousness are the things we prioritize as judges!” The Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master said in a “gentlemanly” manner, though his eerie voice could hardly be linked with such words.
“Since Senior Fourteenth has said that, this Young Master will be direct with my words. Just now, Senior Cheng asked me for an explanation? I’m not sure what kind of explanation I should give. In any case, I’ll like to ask Senior Cheng, or perhaps, all the seniors of the Heaven Saint Palace as well…”
Jun Mo Xie had a look of rage on his face as he continued. “Not long ago, an incident of the crowd surging up to attack me happened right in front of the four judges! And it was even after the judges announced the result of the battle! This is truly unbelievable; do the words of the judges have any use at all? If it was the Fourteenth Young Master who announced the results, it’s one matter. But I distinctly remembered that it was Senior Qu who announced the results, right? In that case, I’ll like to ask, what use do the few of you have as judges?”
Cheng Yin Xiao and the others were stumped. The truth was right before their eyes, and with their status, they would definitely not speak words that went against their conscience!
“You’re speaking nonsense, brat!” Surprisingly, it was actually the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master who spoke to resolve the situation. However, he continued in a stern manner. “How did they not fulfill their duties as referees? Didn’t they shout ‘STOP’ just now?!”
After saying that, he chuckled a few times in a manner of one taking pleasure in other people’s misfortune.
When Cheng Yin Xiao and the rest heard the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master’s words, they thought that this Fourteenth Young Master was for once being a good person, helping speak up for them. But when they listened more closely, they realized: was this still helping them resolve the situation? It was clearly pouring oil on top of a fire, beating the drenched dog!
“This junior had spoken wrongly… Senior Fourteenth Young Master’s words were right; this junior had indeed heard the two Seniors shouting to stop them when those guys rushed at me…”
Jun Mo Xie said apologetically, and put on an extremely wronged expression as he exerted strongly. “However, this junior does not understand; even if we do not mention Seniors’ positions as judges, why is there no deterring strength given the positions of the three Seniors in the Holy Lands? From the looks of it… the three Seniors’ commands are no different from a dog’s fart to the people of the Holy Lands! I’m truly shocked… this junior was simply too agitated just now and didn’t understand Seniors’ assistance. I hope you can understand…”
The three experts’ faces instantly turned red!
The three of them and the Fourteenth Young Master had joined hands as judges, but it had still resulted in such a conclusion. One side had directly attacked a single person; no matter how one put it, such a matter was not justifiable. Especially since the three of them were extremely respected individuals of the three Holy Lands. Yet, the people under them completely disregarded their words. It was a fierce slap on their faces.
This slap by Jun Mo Xie had caused all their ears to turn red, but they could only endure it silently…
In that moment, the three of them stared fiercely at Hai Wu Ya and He Zhi Qiu, and their gazes were not kind!
The Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master also snorted coldly. “Those words are not nonsense this time! Speaking of explanations… this Young Master also wants an explanation! This Young Master was also one of the judges, and just like that Jun brat had said, this incident happened right under this Young Master’s nose. As for whether those juniors treat the three of your words as farts, this Young Master is not interested in knowing. But this is equivalent to not placing this Young Master in their eyes as well! To me, this matter has severely affected my reputation! This matter cannot be settled so easily. Even if that Jun brat does not want to pursue the matter, this Young Master wants to pursue it!”
The three’s faces instantly turned ugly. They had only been thinking about dealing with Jun Mo Xie just now, and they’d completely forgotten about this fellow… What should they do now? This lunatic was not someone who behaved in a logical manner. Furthermore, they were not on the side of reason this time. This was going to be trouble…
Jun Mo Xie nodded, his voice following close behind. “Exactly, exactly. Even if didn’t talk about the problem of the Fourteenth Young Master’s face and reputation, there’s still the matter of this Young Master’s safety! If the three Guardians wished to seek an explanation from me, this Young Master can still express some understanding. After all, so many people had died… However, those guys charged over just now. If this Young Master hadn’t retaliated, perhaps I would have been torn into pieces by them in a mere instant. Unless… I should have simply stretched my neck out and waited for death?”
Speaking and harmonizing in such a perfect manner, the two wretches forced the three Guardians into a corner with their words, until their faces had turned into the same color as a pig’s liver…
Jun Mo Xie raised his chin and snorted coldly. “Or perhaps to the three Guardians, the Holy Lands are only allowed to win, while I’m not even allowed to retaliate? You guys sneak attacked and surrounded others with numbers; when they died, you sought the victim who managed to survive for justice and explanation? Isn’t that a bit too ridiculous and lawless… three Seniors, is your Heaven Saint Palace so unable to take losses?”
As he said that, Jun Mo Xie beckoned with his hand and the black flames on the ground jumped up and formed into a ball in his hand before disappearing…
The words “unable to take losses” had only just come out from Qu Wu Hui’s mouth, when Jun Mo Xie returned it to the three of them.
“Little bastard, you’re spouting nonsense! How are we unable to take losses?!” Cheng Yin Xiao hollered with rage.
The three Guardians were all incredibly enraged. However, there was nothing they could do, and they did not even have anything to retort with. Because they were originally not on the side of reason, and the matter of the group attack had just finished. If it was not them being unable to take the loss, what was it?!
Having no directions to vent his frustrations, Qu Wu Hui turned to Hai Wu Ya and the rest and scolded sternly. “Shameful things, what are you all still waiting for? Hurry up and scam!”
“Scram? Even if they want to scram, they can only go after giving this Young Master an explanation!” The Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master snorted coldly and said. “Before I give the word, I’ll like to see which one of you dares to scram!”
Cheng Yin Xiao forcefully suppress his anger and after taking two large breaths. He gritted his teeth with difficulty. “This matter was a mistake on our side. We seek Brother Fourteenth’s understanding. A great man has great magnanimity; regarding this matter, please don’t make things difficult for these juniors.”
Such a large group of experts had all been slaughtered cleanly by the other side, and instead of getting an explanation from them, they had even been forced to bow their heads and apologize… The indignation and humiliation in Cheng Yin Xiao’s heart was easy to imagine!
If it was really Jun Mo Xie who was in the wrong, then even if Cheng Yin Xiao and the rest had to fight with their life, they would still go against the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master, and would even moreso not let Jun Mo Xie off.
However… this entire matter had indeed been caused by the Holy Lands! That attack had also been a bit too shameless. A large group of experts attacking a junior who was not even 20 years old. This matter was simply too embarrassing to speak about!
Who would have thought that after disgracing the four of them, they still lost such a large number of people. In the end, they even presented all the initiative into the enemy’s hands! What kind of matter is this! Even if you all don’t want your face, we still do! F*ck, what face do we have left now? All of it has been thrown far away already!
Cheng Yin Xiao and Qu Wu Hui gritted their teeths as they cursed in their hearts. When we return to the Holy Lands, none of these idiots will be let off lightly! We must sort them out properly!
“Oh? Since Brother Chen admitted the fault personally, this Young Master has always been a gracious person… so this time, we’ll forget about it.” The Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master said magnanimously. “You all can scram now!”
On the other side, Hai Wu Ya and He Zhi Qiu’s eyes were nearly spouting fire. But under the stern gazes of Qu Wu Hui and the rest, they didn’t say anything and turned to leave. In a short time, they completely disappeared from sight…
Only Qiao Ying, who hadn’t participated in the quarrels, was staring at the empty grounds quietly. Those were 30 top tier experts! The people whom they’d paid such huge prices and sacrificed so much face to save! In the blink of an eye, all had been buried here!
These people were all the main forces for the War for Seizing the Heavens! To lose so many in an instant… the impact it would have on the War for Seizing the Heavens would definitely not be light, to the point where it could affect the entire situation! If there were no reinforcements, with the current strength of the Holy Lands, this War for Seizing the Heavens was lost without a doubt!
“This matter ends here!” Qu Wu Hui declared in a stern tone. “Jun Mo Xie, for the Exquisite Lotus that you won, are you going with us to claim it? Or will you wait for someone to send it to Tian Fa Forest for you?”
Jun Mo Xie furrowed his brows lightly. The two options that Qu Wu Hui had given this time were both not good choices.
