Chapter 2109: Mu’er Steps Forward (2/2)

There was no excitement or joy. There were no emotions at all. His voice was extremely cold.

In reality, Ming Dong could tell that Shangguan Mu’er had already become a Godking now as well. He felt much doubt as to why she could reach such a level in such a short amount of time. At the same time, he had many queries, but the death of his best friend filled him with grief, almost to the point where he had lost all rationality. All that remained in his mind was revenge, revenge, revenge!

Shangguan Mu’er looked at Ming Dong deeply as shock and disbelief filled her eyes.

She knew that Jian Chen had always been thinking of Ming Dong, who suddenly vanished from the ninth floor of the Anatta Tower all those years ago. After coming to the Saints’ World, he had thought about looking for him several times, but she had never thought that Ming Dong would suddenly appear in the Neptunean Divine Palace, and his cultivation was so powerful.

“Ming Dong, I’ve finally found you. Did you know that in all those years you were missing, Jian Chen always thought about you? He even wanted to go on a long journey to search for you right when he came to the Saints’ World and before he had properly strengthened up,” Shangguan Mu’e said softly. She did not mention the matter with Jun Kong.

Sorrow filled Ming Dong’s eyes. He closed them painfully, and tears ran down his cheeks uncontrollably. He had constantly been thinking about Jian Chen, who had once gone through thick and thin with him on the Tian Yuan Continent. However, just when he began to search for him, he learnt that Jian Chen was dead.

Ming Dong sucked in a deep breath. When he opened his eyes again, they were cold and emotionless. He asked once again, “Sister-in-law, you stopped me from killing him earlier. Do you want to save him, or do you want to kill him yourself?”

Shangguan Mu’er finally looked at Jun Kong. Seeing the horrible shape he had been reduced to, her expression did not change at all. She said, “Jun Kong is my senior in the sect. I owe his master, so let him go this time, Ming Dong.”

“Let him go?” Ming Dong’s eyes suddenly narrowed as he shouted out emotionally, “Do you know that this person wanted to kill my brother, yet you want me to let him go right now? Won’t you be letting my brother down by doing this? Won’t you be letting down his soul in the afterlife?” At this moment, Ming Dong seemed frenzied, like a furious lion. Shangguan Mu’er’s had filled him with disappointment and rage.

“If I insist on killing him, will you stop me?” Ming Dong called out. He was very emotional.

“I will.” Shangguan Mu’er said calmly, “Jun Kong’s master is one of the four ancestors of the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound and has shown me kindness. I’m only saving Jun Kong this time because of his master. It has nothing to do with Jun Kong. And after this, even if Jun Kong faces danger again, it’ll have nothing to do with me.”

Ming Dong sucked in a few deep breaths after listening to Shangguan Mu’er’s explanation and slowly calmed down. He said, “Alright. If that’s the case, I’ll do it for you and spare him this time.”

Ming Dong stowed his sword away as he stared at Jun Kong coldly. He directly kicked Jun Kong away and shouted out, “Piss off!”

Jun Kong’s crushed body was caught by the other Godkings of the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound in a flurry. Various pills were fed into Jun Kong’s mouth regardless of their value.

Ming Dong, on the other hand, did not talk too much with Shangguan Mu’er. Instead, he turned around and made his way towards Gong Zheng, Bai Yi, and Cang Ying. Although his presence was powerful, his figure seemed rather bleak and lonely.

“Senior Kong, you should have never, ever wanted to kill Jian Chen. You know he’s my husband, so if you want to become his enemy, you’re becoming my enemy.” Shangguan Mu’er turned around and stared at Jun Kong emotionlessly. She continued, “This matter won’t end here yet. Haven’t you been looking down on my husband the entire time? I believe that before long, you will meet him, and I won’t be able to help you anymore when that happens.”
