533 A Man Can’t Be Too Shameless (1/2)
Jun Mo Xie flatly raised his head to look at them. He then said, ”Why? Because there's both good and bad people in the Three Holy Lands! The status of Elusive Land of Immortals and the Great Golden City is majestic. But, they are still aware of the fact that they have to follow the rules of our secular world since they're here at this moment. No one knows how the future will turn out. But, I still believe that these two Holy Lands are honorable. Well, they at least aren't as despicable as your Illusory Ocean of Blood! Besides, I believe that the two Holy Lands have certainly bought these pills to prepare for the Battle of Seizing the Heavens. In fact, I would've given these pills as a gift if I weren't auctioning them here.”
Jun Mo Xie had said these words to flatter the Elusive Land of Immortals and the Great Golden City. However, he had also insulted the Illusory Ocean of Blood by doing so. In fact, his words had automatically drawn a line between them. Everyone knew his intentions, but the Elusive Land of Immortals and the Great Golden City had achieved their goals. So, why would they worry over other people's problems? Therefore, Jun Mo Xie had assessed that they wouldn't team up against him again.
Huyan Xiao's nostrils flared in anger. His entire face had turned red. His anger welled-up like a mountain, and he yelled, ”Do you think the Illusory Ocean of Blood isn't preparing for the Battle of Seizing the Heavens? Do you think that the Illusory Ocean of blood is working for just me? Jun Mo Xie, you've dared to humiliate our Illusory Ocean of Blood! Are you trying to create a lifelong enmity?”
”Am I? Why didn't I see this coming? I've only seen the three people from the Illusory Ocean of Blood who came to the Jun Family on the sly in order to steal the pills. Moreover, they didn't even feel ashamed when we discovered them. Instead, they blatantly blackmailed us… Moreover, they even used their martial strength, and threatened to exterminate my Jun Family… They even tried forcing us to handover the pills…”
Jun Mo Xie's eyes were emitting electric lights as he coldly looked at Huyan Xiao and said, ”The first wave of attack didn't work. So, you even sent an expert who was above the Great Master Level — Huang Tai Yang! Even he came to our house in order to steal like rats and dogs do! Moreover, he threatened to kill the nine generations of my family! Such a mean and low-class behavior has never been seen. I'm afraid that my Jun Family would've become extinct a long time ago if we didn't have some self-defense strength. Even this auction wouldn't have happened in that case. However, I still greatly admire you, Huyan Xiao. After all, you didn't even come to collect their bodies for a proper funeral once your evil plans were shattered. How can you be shameless-enough to still talk about this in front of me?
Jun Mo Xie spat out. Then, he continued in a contemptuous tone, ”Huyan Xiao, where have you learnt such shamelessness from? Is this a unique magical power of your Illusory Ocean of Blood? You're genuinely unrivalled in the entire world. There must be no match for you when it comes to this shamelessness, right?”
”Did this really happen?” Ning Wu Qing frowned. His face sank, and his eyes inclined like two swords. They then swept out towards Huyan Xiao. Ma Jiang Ming's face also showed a look of despise on the other side. That's right. The Great Golden City also wanted these magical pills; they too wanted the man who had refined them. But, they would've never behaved as lowly as the Illusory Ocean of Blood had!
”This is utter nonsense!” Blood rushed to Huyan Xiao's face. He suddenly felt ashamed under the gaze of those ten experts from the other two Holy Lands. So, he said, ”Jun Mo Xie, that's a malicious attack! You know the reason behind this matter…”
”I am talking nonsense? How can I talk nonsense? Huyan Xiao… Did you not send two of your Great Level experts to gate-crash the Jun Family's residence that night? Did they not trespass into the courtyard where the Jun Family's women live? Weren't they your subordinates from the Illusory Ocean of Blood? Didn't you order them to do this? You're the Young Lord of the Illusory Ocean of Blood. So, how can you get away from the responsibility of this act?” Jun Mo Xie interrupted and asked in a cold tone.
”That's nonsense! They had acted on Huang Tai Yang's instructions. How could I have ordered them?” Huyan Xiao blabbered under the gaze of three experts — Ning Wu Qing, Ma Jiang Ming, and Mei Xue Yan. He hadn't had the time to think clearly. Therefore, he had blurted-out the truth this time.
”On Huang Tai Yang's instructions…? Maybe Huang Tai Yang had given the orders. But, wasn't Huang Tai Yang a man from your Illusory Ocean of Blood? You're pushing the blame onto a dead person? You don't have any guts! Do you think you can get away from your responsibility? This is a joke!” Jun Mo Xie smiled in mockery.
Ning Wu Qing and Ma Jiang Ming also sighed.
[Did he just tell Jun Mo Xie that Huang Tai Yang had ordered this course of action? Fancy that… This Illusory Ocean of Blood's Young Lord can speak without using his brains! Aren't Huang Tai Yang's orders derived from your father's instructions? How is it any different from a direct order from Huyan Aobo?]
[Besides, you are the Young Lord! Huang Tai Yang may have given the orders. But, that man is already dead. And, you are the Young Lord. So, you should take the responsibility for these matters now. But, you are not willing to take the responsibility. In fact, you are making stories instead. How can this not make your subordinates sneer at you…]
”Well, I'll also be honest in that case! Huang Tai Yang personally came-in the second night. Then, he stood on the tallest tower of Jun Family's residence in a fearless manner. His actions and words were wild and willful. His sound was powerful and outstanding. His footsteps could intimidate the entire Tian Xiang City. So, it could be said that everybody had noticed his arrival. No one in the entire Tian Xiang City knew if anyone from my Jun Family managed to survive this or not. Some were even thinking that we were destroyed a long time ago. My Jun Family had become a joke in the entire capital because of this matter. My Jun Family has faced some tough time over the last several years. But, nobody has ever trampled their way into our residence in this manner. And, this stands true even when we were facing the worst of times. So, I dare to ask the Young Lord whether he still wants to say that this matter was entirely an arbitrary action on Huang Tai Yang's part?! It hadn't been approved by you? Will you still pretend that you didn't know these facts till this moment? Wouldn't this make you rather pathetic for a Young Lord who's supposed to be in command?”
Jun Mo Xie had been smiling mischievously. However, he had hardly relaxed with his words; he had been asking these questions very intensely and forcefully.
Huyan Xiao had been left stunned. After all, he simply couldn't deny these facts. He couldn't even blame Jun Mo Xie for not making the entire fact clear even though Jun Mo Xie hadn't mentioned everything about the incident. After all, the incident had occurred because the Huang Family had deliberately distorted the truth; they had planned to use Huang Tai Yang's power and the Illusory Ocean of Blood's influence to suppress the three influential families. Huang Tai Yang had stepped-in because he was related to the Huang Family. And, that was understandable to some extent. But, the fact still remained that this had happened because of the Huang Family's mistake. Therefore, it would be senseless to bring up these reasons…
In fact, it would've completely meaningless to put forward these reasons. After all, they would've made no sense.
