670 Lawless And Brazen, Grave of the Affectionate Couple! (1/2)
The nine day drama finally come to end.
Jun Wu Hui's military flag once again soared proudly in the air of Tian Xiang City!
In these nine days, numerous court officials had come to the Jun Family, wave after wave, almost unceasing in their request to stop this very uninteresting show. They had all kinds of reasons, and each argument seemed righteous and rational. However, Jun Mo Xie flatly rejected everyone. You may have your reasons, but I have my own principles!
Those who were too relentless and noisy were directly chased away, and if they still didn't stop, they were thrown out and their legs were broken!
This was a world where a clenched fist was the best reason. Whoever's fist was bigger would be the one in the right!
Besides, if this tiny show was stopped at the persuasion of a few people, wouldn't the main show be unable to start?!
The so-called main show was naturally the matter that Jun Mo Xie had promised to do: unite Murong Xiu Xiu and Ye Gu Han together in burial!
This decision was the true meaning of madness!
This main show was extremely interesting, right from the start!
Jun Mo Xie had chosen the burial spot to be at the old location of the Yuan Ye Mansion. This was a piece of land that the Emperor had given to a grand minister as his residence, and it was quite close to the imperial palace. Jun Mo Xie had bought it quite effortlessly and then flattened the entire area!
His actions were simple and barbaric to a point where it was somewhat overbearing.
He had simply placed two five million liang notes in front of the minister who was surnamed Gu, then offered him two options. First, take the money and find another place to stay. Two, stay here and be flattened along with the mansion.
This resigned old minister was rather smart. Without even raising his eyebrows, he instantly took the money and ordered the servants to start moving.
The true value of this mansion was only around 4.5 million liang at most; it was also extremely difficult to see this kind of money upfront. Besides, the other party had directly taken out 10 million liang in cash—10 million liang ah! He was making an immense profit! He was even allowed to bring all his stuff away, and all he really needed to do was to buy another mansion to live in. There was no reason to reject such a fortune.
Over and above everything, the current Jun Mo Xie was a person that even the Emperor had to give way to. He wasn't so stupid as to go and offend him. Since the other party was riding on a strong wave right now, perhaps he could forge a path for his children and grandchildren with this connection… no matter what, this bit of favor should be worth something.
Therefore, minister Gu gladly agreed and hastened to move. In just two short days, everything was settled.
Just as minister Gu took out the last piece of item and walked about 10 meters out of his door, a loud hong sound rang out. When he turned back to look, he saw to his horror that the huge mansion with their hundreds of rooms had all collapsed in an instant, turning into a pile of rubble that stretched far and wide!
Cold sweat burst out of minister Gu's body in an instant. If he hadn't moved so straightforwardly, then among that pile of rubble… thinking to here, minister Gu hurriedly scampered away without turning around. Only a pile of cold sweat remained behind him…
That night, Jun Mo Xie arrived at the area. The entire place was fully secured by the Heaven Destroyer and Spirit Devourer teams to a point where even the winds and rain would not be able to enter.
Jun Mo Xie stood among the rubble, dressed in a full white robe. His desolate figure was framed against the cloudless night sky, causing him to look slightly illusory.
Jun Mo Xie stood at the center, his face unusually solemn. The bodies of the two passionate lovers, Ye Gu Han and Murong Xiu Xiu laid behind him in a large bronze coffin.
Jun Mo Xie raised his hand and a dull yellow radiance shone. With a light wave, the radiance shone brighter and surged out; everywhere the mysterious yellow light landed on, the ceramic tiles and the walls would turn into mud. The messy ground was instantly transformed into a flat piece of ground; this sight was exceptionally shocking!
He waved his hands again, and a several zhang deep hole opened up in front of him. Ye Gu Han and Murong Xiu Xiu's coffin floated into the air and slowly landed softly into the hole. Then, with a light flick, the grave closed up seamlessly.
This pair of lovers, was finally united in burial!
Their long cherished wish in life had finally been fulfilled!
Allow me to walk the nine springs with you, so that we may unite in Fengdu; give me your hand, so that we shall never part for three lifetimes!
Jun Mo Xie remained standing on the spot, not moving at all.
But before him, a huge piece of stone tablet appeared, as if it had grown from the ground like a tree. It was 10 zhang tall, squarish, and exceptionally large. A handsome dragon and a graceful phoenix sat atop the stone, facing each other. The aura felt from it was grave and solemn.
Striking words were carved in between the dragon and the phoenix: Grave of the Affectionate Couple!
Jun Mo Xie's body rose into the aura, and a single point of dull yellow light shone on his fingertip. After a short moment of silence, he abruptly brandished the finger powerfully! Faint stone chippings flew off the tombstone, and lines of bold and beautiful characters began to appear continuously on the tombstone's smooth surface.
The left upper corner had the words ”I would rather fall and wither, wandering the netherworld alone than have any regrets for my deep love in this life! If there is unfinished affinity in the next life still, I would sooner let down the heavens than let my dearest down!”
