849 Its been a While, Xue Yan! (1/2)
Jun Mo Xie was currently in an extremely hidden place, holding his tea cup, sitting leisurely in a chair. He had already returned to his original appearance, his entire body at ease, completely unfettered, wearing an expression that said that even if the sky fell down, it wouldn't matter. Truly in a state of tranquility.
Opposite him was Dongfang Wen Qing with a face full of worry!
Dongfang Wen Qing at this moment had long forgotten about the hatred between him and his nephew. Only worry and concerned filled his eyes. Since Jun Mo Xie returned and told him of his plans, Dongfang First Master's sighing never seemed to cease; even when he was sleeping, he was still sighing…
”Mo Xie… I thought about it, this matter… your decision… it is still too risky… it's not worth it! Really not worth it…” Dongfang Wen Qing said with anguish. ”Even if we want revenge, even if we seek justice for ourselves, there's no need to be this extreme. We should do what is within our means… right now, the battle is beginning to unfold… We are literally trying to hit a stone with an egg! We don't have the tiniest chance of victory… Your uncle is extremely worried…”
Dongfang First Master was so troubled it felt as if his intestines were tangled. He had already reprimanded himself mentally countless of times. You really should die; you deserve to be doomed for a life of being trampled upon now!
How great would it be to let this rascal Mo Xie follow Wen Dao or Wen Jian? I just had to insist on him following me, had to insist on getting my revenge for a while. Now great! I've gotten myself into the mud…
Life and death were not the main concern. The most frustrating thing was that this nephew was behaving so flawlessly and he was aware of it, but he didn't dare tell anyone about it!… Looking at Mo Xie now that the stage had already been set, this battle was inevitable now!
Who can I tell? Tell mother? Isn't that Old Madam going to have to forget about sleeping from now onwards? Or even personally come down to stake it all with her grandson? That is also highly possible…
Tell my younger sister? Since the death of brother-in-law, she has already became completely disheartened… if I tell her that her only son left is going all out with someone, and it's a battle that is completely impossible to win… God knows if she will collapse again and go unconscious for another ten or eight years…
These two people were perhaps the only two people who could convince Jun Mo Xie to stop, but Dongfang Wen Qing would absolutely not dare to inform them about this, even if he was beaten to death. Because no matter what the consequences, he was incapable of carrying either of them…
As for Dongfang Wen Jian and Dongfang Wen Do, Dongfang Wen Qing did not even need to ask to know what sort of reaction those two would have; they'd definitely raise their brows in shock, then break out in loud laughter, and laugh. Good nephew! As expected of my nephew! Truly a hero and good man! Uncle is a hero and the nephew is divinely courageous; how could I miss being a part of a magnificent undertaking that is this crazy! You have to wait; I want to accompany my nephew in gambling with my life! I'll kill whoever who tries to stop me…
Thinking till this point, Dongfang Wen Qing felt completely weak! He was on the verge of crying… This nephew is truly a complete, official, and thorough trouble maker…
You've put this old man in the fire rack and you're leaving me there to endure all of it…
A feeling like this was really miserable…
”How is this risky? Uncle, you can just relax and just watch carefully as your nephew kills his way in all directions! Just take it as an exciting martial arts show is happening soon!”
Jun Mo Xie said chucklingly. ”Besides, everyone only has one life; what makes either of us scarier than the other? If it's not time for you to die, you might even meet a miracle when you jump off a cliff. But when it is time for you to die, you can even die from swallowing your phlegm… There's no need to worry and fuss over what may or may not happen; if it's meant to be, it'll be! F*ck it! Just do whatever you want!”
Dongfang First Master had not died from worrying, but he almost choked to his death from hearing this speech. ”You little bastard! How can you talk like this? If you little bastard really meet with any mishap, it will be a miracle if your Grandma doesn't skin me in a single day! It'll be odd if your mother doesn't see me as her enemy! I'll instantly become utterly isolated! Your uncle here will have no other path aside from hanging myself on a tree! You little rascal, bastardly thing…”
”Aiya, so ultimately you were just worrying about yourself. Don't worry, it'll be alright, at least you'll definitely be alright! Grandma is not that sort of unreasonable person… Besides, I think Grandma still considers for you, always leaving you some face for everything…” Jun Mo Xie grinned and said.
Dongfang Wen Qing glared at him. His voice cracking as he shouted, ”Did you consider for me when you fart? Leave some face for me? Your uncle is almost sixty, yet he was still hung on the tree and had his ass whipped just last year… Leaving face for me… This face is sure f*cking big…”
Jun Mo Xie was dumbfounded. He had never imagined that this mighty uncle would have such an unspeakable past. Grandma is truly intrepid…
Dongfang Wen Qing sighed for a while before finally stomping his feet. Through gritted teeth, he said, ”Forget it, forget it, I also don't care that much anymore. I have that bit of self awareness at the very least… I have finally thought it out already. Either way, in this Chrysanthemum City, I'll just go wild for once! I-isn't it just sacrificing my life to accompany a man; if it's meant to be, it's meant to be, but as long as there is the slightest chance of hope, I'll let you return safely even if it's going to cost me my life… If I can't, then both of us uncle and nephew will just be on our way together… What else am I worried about! F*cking hell…”
He walked out with his head hung low as he scolded begrudgingly, going straight to his room to sleep!
Looked like the Dongfang First Master had truly achieved supreme enlightenment this time…
Jun Mo Xie put his palms together and said in a monk-like manner. ”Sir, you have been enlightened…” Then he vanished with a flash, entering the Hongjun Pagoda that he had not entered in a long while…
After entering the Hongjun Pagoda and feeling that long awaited dense and rich Heaven Earth Spiritual Qi, Jun Mo Xie eyes widened in shock from the unexpected situation before him!
Right before Young Master Jun's eyes, that petite white body of Mei Xue Yan was sitting cross-legged, absolutely still, and a series of crackling sounds of the skeleton could be heard coming from her body.
At the same time, to Jun Mo Xie's delight, a small Spirit Energy Whirlpool had formed above Mei Xue Yan's head, and all the Spiritual Qi in the Hongjun Pagoda was all rushing over and entering into the petite frame continuously through it!
Absorbing it all directly into her body!
And Mei Xue Yan was currently in a relatively peculiar state. Her body was upright, and although she was in her Xuan Beast form, but amidst that dense Spiritual Qi above her head, a vague silhouette of a beautiful woman could be seen…
That same silhouette of that peerless talent that had not been seen in a while…
One who walked the scope of the heaven and the earth, protected the desires of the heaven and earth; one who rashly beheaded another, nurtured a heart of ice…
These were signs that would only appear at the second level of the Art of Unlocking Heaven's Fortune!
Jun Mo Xie never imagined that Mei Xue Yan would advance this rapidly. He had only not come in for a couple of days, but when he finally came in, he just coincidentally met Mei Xue Yan breaking through! This was too surprising!
And from the looks of it, it seemed like the breakthrough to a new realm was drawing to an end, about to be wrapped up smoothly.
Looking at her and recalling all the suffering he had to go through when he was breaking through back then, Jun Mo Xie couldn't help but let out a sigh. Is life really that unfair?! He did not considered the fact that Mei Xue Yan had the cultivation of a fourth level Venerable, only a bit away from becoming a Saint. Now that she was recultivating and practicing a heaven-defying art like the Art of Unlocking Heaven's Fortune, if her advancement wasn't fast… then it'd really make no sense!
Young Master Jun could finally put his anxious heart down after seeing Mei Xue Yan's smooth progress. He had originally worried that his beloved might need to face the same torture and danger he went through back then. Just as he only had eyes for his lover and nothing else, something else entered his field of vision!
Mei Xue Yan was currently directly under that Heaven Earth Spirit Vein, but Snake King laid quietly at the spot she originally slept at. Jun Mo Xie's lifted mood instantly turned heavy. He walked over slowly, sitting down beside Snake King. Looking at that face that was in deep sleep, he let out a deep sigh as he whispered, ”Green Hunter… You… Why did you do that back then… Sigh! This sacrifice and feelings, how could I, Jun Mo Xie… how do I bear it… how do I repay it…”
Snake King remained unresponsive, quietly in deep slumber. Her breathing was even, so there was no longer any danger to her life, there were no signs of her regaining consciousness…
Jun Mo Xie sat under the tree in a daze. Tiny sparkles rained from the tree, landing on him and Snake King. Young Master Jun's eyes were in a daze, and he wasn't even sure what he was thinking about…
His mind seemed tranquil, but also kind of messy… There seemed to be so many things to think about, but it also seemed as if there was absolutely nothing worth recalling. Two ladies were in here. One, for his sake, for his family's sake, was reverted back to her original form, and still worked extremely hard to cultivate even until now… The other was put to an irreversible eternal sleep because of his moment of carelessness!
All this, everything, was because of him!
