748 Kneeling and Begging (1/2)
The members of the Five Beasts Sect and the Purple Qi Pavilion treated Tan Qiyue as their pillar of support. They thought that his arrival would solve their problems. No one had expected that in the end, the result would be like this.
As a patriarch of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, shouldn't he be siding with the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension?
Moreover, the Cries of Hades Bell and the Dark Soul Pearl were both in the hands of Mo Wen. Where was the logic in allowing an outsider like Mo Wen to possess these two most valuable treasures? Patriarch Tan could not just watch as Mo Wen took the treasures of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension away, could he?
”Patriarch Tan, Mo Wen is ambitious. Not only did he take the Cries of Hades Bell and the Dark Soul Pearl, he also wants to ruin our Purple Qi Pavilion and Five Beasts Sect. The Purple Qi Pavilion has a heritage of a thousand years and is the signature sect in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. If it was destroyed by an ancient martial art practitioner from the outside, how could the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension show its face? Moreover, the Cries of Hades Bell and the Dark Soul Pearl are the most valuable treasures of our Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. They should only belong to us, to the strongest practitioner in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension like you. How can we let an ancient martial art practitioner from the outside take them?”
Grandmother Hui Ling was dissatisfied. She tried to persuade Patriarch Tan to deal with Mo Wen, even resorting to talking about upholding justice. It was because she knew that if Patriarch Tan did not intervene in this matter, their Purple Qi Pavilion and Five Beasts Sect would truly be in deep trouble. Aside from Patriarch Tan, no else in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension could stop Mo Wen.
”Say no more. I will not intervene in this matter. As for the Cries of Hades Bell, I have also seen it. Since Mo Wen was able to obtain these two treasures, that is his fortune. Since the Luofeng Sect back then was destroyed, the Cries of Hades Bell and the Dark Soul Pearl are items without owners. Anyone is qualified to become the next master of these treasures,” Tan Qiyue said.
Grandmother Hui Ling looked at Patriarch Tan in disbelief. Never in her wildest dreams had she imagined that Patriarch Tan would say such things. The Cries of Hades Bell and the Dark Soul Pearl were so important, and Patriarch Tan was actually just giving them up? How was this possible?
Maybe the Cries of Hades Bell could not entice him. She had long heard rumors that Patriarch Tan had a profound level weapon, but the Dark Soul Pearl was an absolute important treasure that could help ancient martial art practitioners become immortal. As a Martial Arts Grandmaster Second Realm ancient martial art practitioner, the obstacle in Patriarch Tan's path was becoming immortal. Otherwise, sooner or later he would turn to dust. For a Martial Arts Grandmaster, the opportunity to become immortal was an irresistible temptation.
Patriarch Tan had actually given up the Dark Soul Pearl because Mo Wen had the fortune of obtaining the two treasures. Since when had Patriarch Tan become so pedantic?
Not only Grandmother Hui Ling was in disbelief, but the surrounding members from the large sects were as well. Even the elders of the Intentionless Sect who were still tied on the stone pillars, including Chen Wuhui, all looked amazed.
When Chen Wuhui knew that Mo Wen had the two most valuable treasures, the Cries of Hades Bell and the Dark Soul Pearl, on him, Chen Wuhui knew that it was over. It was because, in the past few days, he had heard from Jiang Jingtao that Patriarch Tan had appeared in Intentionless City.
With Mo Wen having such important treasures on him, Patriarch Tan would not let him leave Intentionless City. This was why Chen Wuhui had asked Mo Wen to quickly leave and forget about them. However, Patriarch Tan's reaction was completely different from what he had imagined. It was practically the exact opposite.
Only the ancient martial art practitioners from the banquet had calm expressions. They did not show any expressions of surprise or disbelief at all. It was because they knew how powerful Mo Wen was. Even now, when they had left the Fighting Spirit Tower, Mo Wen's mysteriousness and ability had not been affected much. For them, for a Second Realm Martial Arts Grandmaster not daring to provoke Mo Wen was completely understandable.
From their perspective, although Mo Wen may not be as powerful as Tan Qiyue, Tan Qiyue would also not necessarily be able to keep Mo Wen here. Unless Tan Qiyue had reached the Martial Arts Grandmaster Third Realm and had absolute confidence that he could take Mo Wen down, otherwise once Mo Wen escaped and returned in the future, it would be a destructive catastrophe.
Everyone knew clearly that Mo Wen was certainly extraordinary and his future would be inestimable. They would also not want to provoke such a person. Lan Zhongzhi and Zong Changsheng were Martial Arts Grandmasters that were on better terms with Mo Wen and would not challenge him. However, even a Martial Arts Grandmaster such as Gong Xingyu who had a grudge with Mo Wen did not dare to provoke Mo Wen.
He Xiangyu's original expression of insufferable arrogance disappeared. He had thrown his weight around and had threatened Mo Wen with Tan Qiyue's power. Now, his entire face turned pale.
”Your pillar of support doesn't seem to stand on your side.”
Mo Wen placed his hands behind his back. The corners of his mouth curled into a cold smile. An astonishing Cold Qi suddenly exploded from his body. The Cold Qi was like a tornado shooting up into the high heavens, encompassing the entire Intentionless City in it. Bolts of azure lightning silently leaped from his body. The terrifying aura kept increasing gradually, almost reaching its peak in an instant.
Everyone was shocked, including Tan Qiyue. In the end, they had still underestimated him. Mo Wen's current cultivation was already approaching that of a Martial Arts Grandmaster.
”Master, Mo Wen saved our lives in the Fighting Spirit Tower. Whoever is an enemy of his is our enemy. Repaying debts of gratitude is a fundamental principle, right master?” Pei Fengwu, who was standing beside Zong Changsheng, suddenly said. She looked coldly at the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension ancient martial art practitioners.
Right now, she finally understood. Mo Wen had not simply come to cause trouble without reason, but for the sect that was tied up on the stone pillars. She did not recognize the sect, but she recognized someone among them. Chen Zi! They were both Vermillion Bird Palace Hall Executors. There were so many Vermillion Bird Palace Hall Executors. The reason why Pei Fengwu recognized her was that, back in the Vermillion Bird challenge ring, Chen Zi had comprehended her dagger technique in battle due to Mo Wen's help. Later, she returned the favor and helped Mo Wen pass the tenth stage of the King of the Ring challenge.
