464 Returning Home (2/2)
Even though the lady in white robes was powerful, and he would not be her opponent under normal circumstances, he had a few ancient spell talismans with him. If he went all out and used the few spell talismans, he had the possibility of killing the lady in white robes.
However, he undoubtedly would need to pay a huge price to do so. This lady in white robes had the cultivation akin to later stage Golden Elixir realm. She had a treasured item with her too. The three people at the beginning stage Golden Elixir realm, who he had encountered in the Ghost Lair, paled into insignificance when compared to this lady. Even if he used the Thunderbolt talisman, it would most likely be difficult for him to kill her.
”If my guess is correct, you are from the Huatian Palace in Hua Xia, right? So young, and so capable. You are most likely a member of the Heaven Palace Hall too, right?”
Stunning Snow didn't doubt Mo Wen's words. On the contrary, she calmed down. As far as she knew, in Hua Xia, only the mysterious Huatian Palace could produce such a youth. As a member of the Gods Alliance, naturally, she knew how mysterious and formidable the Huatian Palace was.
Mo Wen didn't answer her. However, a glint of doubt welled up in his mind. Heaven Palace Hall? There was such a department called the Heaven Palace Hall in the Huatian Palace? Strictly speaking, he didn't really understand the Huatian Palace as well. Naturally, it would be impossible for him to be a member of the Heaven Palace Hall.
”There is no vendetta between you and me. There is no need for a fight to the death. Since you are from the Huatian Palace, I will overlook your offense this time. But you must give me Murano. Of course, I will not interfere with your underground fight. If you still do not agree, then we can only decide on who has better skills through a fight.”
A light flashed past in Stunning Snow's eyes. Her topic of conversation changed suddenly. She had actually let slide what he did to her just now. If this slightly stubborn youth was from the Heaven Palace Hall, then for her to defeat him, she would most likely need to pay a price. She wouldn't want to take such a risk at the spur of the moment.
”You are a lady. In front of a lady, I can be quite a gentleman. Since you pleaded for him, it is not impossible to let him off.”
The corner of Mo Wen's mouth lifted. With a wave of his hand, he sent Murano in front of the lady in white robes. Before this, he had probed. It seemed impossible to win against her with a sneak attack. So, in order to defeat her, the price to pay was too high. Of course, he knew that it was better to go along with her words right now. After all, he was not willing to get into a huge fight over some trivial matters.
”You are the worst gentleman that I have ever seen.” Stunning Snow took a long glance at Mo Wen. Then, she waved her hand. A shapeless white light enveloped Murano. At the same time, both of them transformed into a beam of light and disappeared from the square in an instant.
Gentleman? She had seen both real gentlemen and pretend gentlemen. But she had never seen a ”gentleman” like Mo Wen.
Mo Wen's eyes flashed past a glint of pondering. This was his first time getting in contact with a strong practitioner from the western world. He realized that they were not simple too. There was a type of people who might be on par with the immortal cultivators.
This world was surely complicated and mysterious.
Right now, he had lost interested in torturing samurais from the Fu Sang Country. He sent Ida Tsuruoka, who was still left hanging, floating in mid-air, flying with a slap. Then, he turned around to look at people from the Yamaguchi-gumi.
”Yamaguchi-gumi, is there anyone else? If anyone else wants to join the battle, be quick,” Mo Wen said plainly.
”No more… no more... We admit defeat… We admit defeat…” Right now, Yoshida Ichiro was badly frightened. He didn't dare to have any other thoughts. He couldn't wait for the underground fight to end now. The few Lords from the Devil Saber-kai didn't die during the underground fight. For him, that was considered the most consoling part out of all his griefs.
Since the Yamaguchi-gumi voluntarily admitted defeat, Mo Wen didn't waste time to say much. He turned around to return to Gu Jingman's side.
”Younger brother, you have worked hard.” Gu Jingman stood up with a smile. She welcomed him and served him tea. She was very attentive toward him.
”In the future, don't look for me over this kind of small matter.” Mo Wen rolled his eyes at Gu Jingman. With her current ability, she was capable of handling the situation on her own. If it was not because she purposely dragged him here, she was capable of settling this underground fight with her ability. Of course, that was assuming that the lady in white robes didn't join in this underground fight. However, with that lady's personality, she would surely stay out of this kind of matter.
”You, this heartless creature, aren't you worried that your elder sister might accidentally get injured from the brutal fights with others?” Gu Jingman glanced at Mo Wen resentfully. She put on a weak and pitiful look.
Mo Wen was too lazy to bother with her. If Gu Jingman was someone who could be easily dealt with, then she wouldn't be a female mafia leader. Only God knew how ruthless she was behind his back.
The underground fight ended with the Hua Xia Five Major Influences winning. This time, the Yamaguchi-gumi agreed to the terms without mincing their words. They promised to not step foot in the Hua Dong region for ten years. Of course, they said they wouldn't set foot in the Hua Dong region; however, no one could be sure whether they would set foot in other regions. But that matter was obviously not under the control of the Five Major Influences.
Gu Jingman and the rest prepared to return to Hua Xia, while Mo Wen and Shen Jing went sightseeing at Fuji Mountain. Everything was peaceful. There weren't any hiccups. After a few days, Mo Wen and Shen Jing, who had finished sightseeing, took a flight back to Hua Xia from Tokyo.
