When Ye Mo returned to his Estate, he saw that the signboard he had hung out front had been smashed to pieces. There were many Saints who had come to make appointments standing next to it.
Meng Huo crossed his arms and said, “What Seal Master nonsense. How can a warrior in the Transcendence Third Realm be able to refine a Fourth Order Ninth Tier seal?”
“Meng Huo, how dare you!” Ye Mo yelled. He rushed in front of Meng Huo and said, “You smashed my signboard. Tell me, how will you compensate me?”
Meng Huo first saw Ye Mo, then heard Ye Mo’s voice, because Ye Mo’s speed had exceeded the speed of sound.
“Compensate you?” Meng Huo smiled coldly. “Your signboard is a bad one. Why shouldn’t it be smashed? As a warrior in the Transcendence Third Realm, how can you refine a Fourth Order Ninth Tier seal? Why are you making appointments? You’re probably secretly giving the seals to some other expert to refine them right? ”
After he spoke, the Saints standing around became skeptical too. After all, Ye Mo’s realm was too low. Although they weren’t seal masters, they still had some understanding of the requirements to be a Seal Master. A Seal Master had to be at least in the Transcendence Ninth Realm to refine a Fourth Order Ninth Tier seal.
“Why do you care if I have someone else make the seals? Since you dare to smash my signboard, then I have to cut off your hand.” Ye Mo condensed a long knife and stepped toward Meng Huo. “I want to see if there are any more ignorant brats who dare to come smash my signboard in the future.”
“Brother Ye Mo, you can’t.” Qiao Yizhou rushed over in a hurry and stood in front of Ye Mo to dissuade him.
“He smashed my signboard,” Ye Mo said indignantly. “How can I do business in the future?”
Ye Mo was extremely angry. He could refine the Fourth Order Ninth Tier seals by refining his Heart Transcendence. He could even reach the level of fourth-order cultivation heart, as long as he produced a large number of Fourth Order Ninth Tier seals.
“Brother Ye Mo, you can’t,” Qiao Yizhou said. “Private fights aren’t allowed in the Desolate Mountain. Although he’s in the Transcendence Ninth Realm, he’s quite accomplished in seal technique. if you cut off his hand, the Legal Division will take you down.”
Although Ye Mo didn’t like Meng Huo very much, because he used his seal techniques to act superior to everyone, he couldn’t deny that Meng Huo was very skilled.
“Hmph! Today’s your lucky day.”
Considering his own situation, Ye Mo spared Meng Huo this time around. He was now being targeted by the First Heaven Society, so if he was caught again, the consequences would be severe. Ye Mo had to put up with it for now.
“What did you say? I’m lucky?” Meng Huo glared at him. “You phony. I’m the real Seal Master. What I destroyed is your fake Seal Master signboard.”
He was now even more convinced that Ye Mo was a fake Seal Master. Maybe there was a powerful Seal Master behind him, but his own seal technique wasn’t very good.
Hearing these words, Ye Mo couldn’t stop his anger. Looking around, he saw that the watching Saints were starting to doubt. His reputation was at risk. Once his reputation was damaged, no one would come to ask him to refine seals. His plan to refine his Heart Transcendence would be delayed.
“It seems that you really don’t want your arm!” Ye Mo roared angrily as he displayed the Shifting Phantom. His body looked like a ghost as he passed through the crowd. No one could react when they saw Ye Mo grab Meng Huo’s neck with one hand and lift him into the air. “You’re looking for death!”
Meng Huo made a choking noise.
“Brother Ye Mo, No!” Qiao Yizhou exclaimed. With Ye Mo’s temper, he might do something out of line.
“Ye Mo, how dare you.”
A sudden Sword Qi descended and attacked Ye Mo. Feeling the powerful attack, Ye Mo released Meng Huo and pulled out the Sky Blood Spear from his back. He stabbed fiercely.
Boom!
With one blow, Ye Mo destroyed the sword qi. He looked up and saw a familiar figure.
“Chu Tian!” Ye Mo sneered at the man in front of him. Based on his posture, it was clear that the newcomer didn’t have good intentions.
“Ye Mo, how dare you touch Master Huo?” Chu Tian said coldly. “Master Huo is the teacher of the young madam. How dare you touch him?”
“What? The young madam?” Ye Mo was surprised and asked, “Do you mean Xiao Yue?”
“The young madam I am referring to is Xue Can,” Chu Tian said in a low voice. “You dare to attack the young madam’s master. Tell me, how should we take care of this?”
“Xue Can?” Ye Mo frowned. He didn’t expect that woman to infiltrate the Desolate Mountain so quickly.
“Take care of what?” Ye Mo said coldly. “Meng Huo smashed my signboard. How can I do business in the future?”
“The signboard isn’t smashed,” Chu Tian said, looking at the crowd. “If you really had the ability, no matter how much Meng Huo smashes it, it won’t matter. If you don’t have any ability, then even if he doesn’t smash it, no one will come to you to buy seals.”
“That’s right. We’re looking for Ye Mo to make an appointment for seals, but we never saw Ye Mo refine them. Also, he left the Desolate Mountain when he was refining seals.”
“That’s right. I think we should let Ye Mo compete with Meng Huo to see whose seal technique is better. I’ll go to the winner to refine seals in the future.”
Everyone began to discuss.
“Ye Mo, do you dare to compete with me?” Meng Huo smiled coldly. “Since you have real skills, let’s compete. I won’t refine anything myself. As long as you can refine the Shackles of Wood Seal in front of everyone, and in front of me, then you win. I’ll also spend a lot of money to build a gold-lettered signboard for you.”
“Master Meng Huo, isn’t it a bit inappropriate to compete against a Saint who’s just entered the Desolate Mountain?” Qiao Yizhou said in a low voice.
“Qiao Yizhou, a Saint who’s been abandoned by the Desolate Mountain should get out of the way,” Chu Tian said coldly. “This is Master Meng Huo’s business. It isn’t your turn to speak.”
Qiao Yizhou bowed his head and said nothing. Obviously, in terms of status and strength, he was far inferior to Meng Huo.
“Ye Mo? How about it?” Meng Huo asked. “As long as you refine a Shackles of Wood Seal on the spot, I’ll hang the signboard for you myself. Do you dare to gamble?”
Seeing Qiao Yizhou’s attitude, Meng Huo was all the more convinced that Ye Mo wouldn’t be able to refine such an exquisite seal like the Shackles of Wood.
In fact, he had smashed Ye Mo’s signboard because he was instructed to by Xue Can. The main purpose wasn’t to deal with Ye Mo, but the Shackles of Wood Seal. People from the First Heaven Society had secretly made an appointment with Ye Mo for the seal. They had handed it to the Seal Master of the First Heaven Society and Meng Huo. But after studying it for a long time, they couldn’t figure out how this seal was made.
Therefore, Meng Huo thought of this trick. If Ye Mo could refine the Shackles of Wood Seal, then, with this, he could memorize Ye Mo’s technique. If Ye Mo couldn’t refine it, then Meng Huo would have dealt him a severe blow.
He won either way.
