The old manâs arrival caused things to become quiet. Pill Valleyâs side had been in the midst of mocking the Martial Heaven Allianceâs side, but they shut their mouths now.
Everyone knew that when the old man was enraged, there was nothing he feared. They couldnât afford to provoke such a figure.
The old man was standing on the very edge. Although he was sitting on the side of the Martial Heaven Alliance, he clearly didnât want to mix with them.
Seeing that, Qu Jianying was sad. Clearly, the matter of her expelling Long Chen was still fresh in the old manâs mind.
She didnât mind if others didnât understand her actions. But this coldness from the old man hurt her.
âIâll go over.â Li Tianxuan stood up.
âLeave it. That old bastard, he wonât listen to anyone. Donât bother.â Qu Jianying shook her head.
âThis is just a misunderstanding. We can resolve it,â said Li Tianxuan. This choice had been something he had forced Qu Jianying to make. Hence, he didnât feel it was fair for the old man to blame her.
âNot all misunderstandings can be resolved. Resolving one misunderstanding will just create a second one. The two of us are fated to be like this for this lifetime.â Qu Jianying looked at the old manâs figure. She sighed with disappointment.
Li Tianxuan couldnât reply to this. Clearly, the old man and Qu Jianyingâs conflicting views went deeper than others saw.
The old manâs arrival also brought in thousands of Righteous experts. They all paid their respects to Qu Jianying. Only through a brief conversation with them did Qu Jianying learn why so few of her people had entered in a long time. So it was all caused by Heavenly Fate Island.
She frowned, about to stand, but was stopped by Li Tianxuan. Li Tianxuan smiled. âToday, weâre just spectators, and Long Chen is the main character. He already sent word to me that thereâs nothing we have to do. We can just calmly watch.â
âThat little brat, heâs the same as the old bastard. He actually doesnât tell me anything. Iâll properly beat him once heâs safe,â said Qu Jianying irritably.
After Long Chen had been expelled, he had sent word to the old man and Li Tianxuan through the Huayun Sect. However, he hadnât sent any news to her. It was like he was treating her like an outsider.
âAlliance head, I approve of this plan. If you donât properly put him in his place, wouldnât he get himself killed sooner or later? Making you, who are busy with thousands of things every day, worry about him so much, he definitely has to be taught a lesson.â Suddenly, Mo Nian, who was sitting beside Ye Lingshan, jumped in. He wouldnât give up any chance to con Long Chen.
Ye Lingshan found it difficult to tolerate Mo Nian. There was no way to talk with him. When he spoke, he ended all conversations, as no one could reply to him. Perhaps the only one who could keep up with him was Long Chen.
âBastard, donât think that youâre any better than Long Chen. Stop trying to seduce my apprentice. She wonât be marrying out. So, unless you want to marry in, you should give up. My apprentice couldnât be seduced by Long Chen, so donât think that your little skills are enough. Iâm not trying to give you a blow, but youâre a far cry from Long Chen in that regard,â said Qu Jianying.
Just who was Qu Jianying? Did Mo Nianâs thoughts have the slightest possibility of escaping her gaze? Furthermore, she didnât really like Mo Nian, feeling him to be even more unreliable than Long Chen. When he smiled, it was truly unbearably wretched.
âAlliance head, this is where youâre wrong. My lack of skills in this regard is due to a lack of experience. A lack of experience shows that I am a pure man, completely different from a rogue like Long Chen. Even if a thousand flowers were to drown me, I wouldnât touch them. Just ask yourself, who is as pure as I am on the Martial Heaven Continent? Mother-in-law, just agree for my sake!â Mo Nian actually knelt down before Qu Jianying, even changing the way he addressed her.
Ye Lingshan was embarrassed and enraged. She had an urge to kick him. She had countless pursuers, but it was her first time seeing someone like Mo Nian.
Ye Lingshanâs desire came true. Mo Nian was kicked away by Qu Jianying. Perhaps it was coincidence or on purpose, but he flew over to the old man.
The old man reached and caught him. Mo Nian hastily bowed. âMany thanks, father-in-law.â
The experts present almost coughed up blood. Mo Nian was⊠talented.
Everyone in the senior generation knew of the old man and Qu Jianyingâs relationship. If it werenât for their tempers being too fiery, the two of them would have long since ended up together. For him to call the old man father-in-law at this moment was quite perfect.
The old manâs expression was odd, but he didnât refute this appellation. He glanced at the distant Qu Jianying. âLittle fellow, for you to be brothers with Long Chen means you have some skill. Donât spend all day messing around. Men should be men. As long as you are strong enough, canât you find any woman you want? Rather than constantly pestering someone, wouldnât it be better to conserve some face?â
Seeing that the old man didnât refuse the title of father-in-law, Qu Jianyingâs heart softened slightly. At least, she was still in the old manâs heart.
âHmph, if he cared about face, would he be called the Western Wretch?â A cold voice rang out in the distance. It was Huo Lieyun.
Mo Nian angrily pointed at him. âLittle brat, get out here. Iâll properly teach you how to behave. Was the piss bath not enough for you? This time Iâll fix that!â
Seeing Mo Nian directly challenge Huo Lieyun, the old man nodded, feeling that he had at least some mannerisms of an expert. But then his expression darkened. Just what expert would do something like urinate on an opponent?
Huo Lieyun suppressed his anger at that comment and sneered, âWho do you think you are? A little mouse who hides all day! If I were to fight you all-out, you would just run in your tortoise shell. Furthermore, todayâs main character is Long Chen. Once I kill Long Chen, Iâll handle you, you wretch.â
âExactly, a wretch like Mo Nian only knows how to run. It runs in the family,â cursed someone else. This person was wearing robes of the ancient family alliance and seemed to have immense enmity with Mo Nian.
âMo Nian, if you swear to fight to the death and not run, brother Huo will definitely fight with you. But do you dare?!â This time it was someone from the ancient races.
Before the Yin Yang World, Mo Nianâs tomb digging had been limited to the ancient family alliance. But after it, Mo Nian had expanded his work to the ancient races, the Corrupt path, the Xuan Beasts, and the other powers. Apparently, during these past few months, Mo Nian had been crazily digging up tombs.
Most days, he would manage to dig up seven ancient tombs in a day, infuriating the various large sects and families. They would then hunt him down as best as they could, but with the Earth Splitting Divine Shuttle, no one could stop him.
When he was still in the Soul Transformation realm, he had been able to easily escape his pursuers. Now that he was at the Life Star realm, he was even more difficult to catch. No one could do anything to him.
The most hateful thing of all was that Mo Nian wasnât just flipping through their tombs and taking their treasures. He also brought their ancestorsâ corpses up to the sun, defiling them. It was a great taboo, but Mo Nian did it. He had sworn to do this in the battle in the Yin Yang World. They wanted to kill him? Then fine, Long Chen would be in charge of killing the living people, while he would be in charge of digging up the dead people.
The various large powers spent all day trembling in fear that their ancient tombs would be targeted next. They spent a huge amount of money and manpower on guarding their tombs.
Before this, most enmities would be resolved by charging at the actual sect, not their ancient tombs. Mo Nian was the first to use this method of revenge, which only made people hate him more.
That was why thousands of experts immediately began to speak up to curse Mo Nian now.
On his own, there was no way that Mo Nian could curse back at all these people.
âDonât be a coward. Go ahead. If any of their old fellows want to interfere, Iâll help you handle them,â said the old man.
Mo Nian looked back at him. Inside, he thought to himself, âOld man, Iâm not as crazy as that. A single Huo Lieyun would be tough enough. Thereâs still True Immortal Jiaoqi, Xie Luo, and the tens of thousands of heavenly geniuses from the other powers. Are you trying to get me killed?â
âCough, father-in-law, I want to go kill them, but the main character is Long Chen. I canât fight over the limelight with him. Iâll wait for him before doing anything,â said Mo Nian. In the end, he obediently returned to his original position.
However, seeing Ye Lingshan glare at him, Mo Nian helplessly hid behind Li Tianxuan. Li Tianxuan was very amicable and polite. Mo Nian held him in high esteem.
Mo Nian had just sat down when a ruckus occurred. A young man had walked in. He was handsome and even scholarly, but it wasnât because of his looks that people were startled. It was because of the giant die behind him that was constantly spinning.
âThe Gambling Heavenly Daoâs heir, Hu Feng!â
Peopleâs hearts shook. Hu Feng was an extremely mysterious existence. His fight against True Immortal Jiaoqi had caused his fame to skyrocket.
Although the two of them had just been probing each other, Hu Fengâs strange fighting style had left a deep impression on them. Some people even suspected him of being the continentâs strongest expert, but he was too low-key for them to see just how strong he was.
Hu Fengâs arrival drew everyoneâs attention. Hu Feng looked around, and then, upon seeing Mo Nian, he cupped his fists.
âBrother Mo Nian, itâs been a while. Iâm glad to see you as healthy and graceful as ever.â
