Looking at the Tian Ji Pole in his hand, Mo Wuji exhaled a breath of short hair. It seems like he really was the Da Shixiong. [1]
Seeing Lei Chenghe and his men stealthily sneaking away, Mo Wuji did not call out to him but formed some hand seals with his hands. An electroball was formed and was sent flying over. The electroball did not leave a trace as it exploded right below Lei Chenghe’s feet.
Lei Chenghe and co. had been suddenly attacked out of nowhere; many thought that a cultivator within the crowd was secretly helping Mo Wuji. Since someone had started the ball rolling, more cultivators secretly shot out their own skills. With so many cultivators attacking simultaneously, the entire ten floors of the Immortal Jade Tower Trembled. In all that confusion, a black nail pierced through Lei Chenghe’s forehead in between his brows. He had ceased to live. The other four members of the Lei Clan could only crazily try their best to run away from the skills bombarding on them.
”Stop!” A thick voice sounded, and a strong pressure came pressing over. A red robed man descended on the half destroyed Immortal Jade House.
This person’s cultivation was definitely higher than than True Lake Stage hook nose. Not just Mo Wuji, everyone else in the hall halted their actions.
”My Immortal Jade Tower is the number one inn in Yan City. Fighting within my Immortal Jade House is a little out of hand.” After the red robed man descended, he spoke with a dissatisfied tone but he did not explode in anger.
Mo Wuji hurriedly stood forward, ”Greetings senior. I did not take this matter into account. Please forgive me. The damages that the Immortal Jade Tower had suffered today, please put it under my account.”
That Lei Chenghe had been killed, and Mo Wuji clearly knew what that black nail which pierced through Lei Chenghe’s head came from. It was exactly Hou Yucheng. Now that he had met his goal, but destroyed a person’s Immortal Jade House, he had to pay for it. But it was just some spirit stones which he could easily afford.
”No, we are all responsible. We will settle the damage together.” The moment Mo Wuji’s words were uttered, many cultivators came to voice out their disagreements.
The red robed man’s gaze landed on Mo Wuji, ”You’re Rogue Cultivator 2705?”
Mo Wuji clasped his fists and said, ”Yes.”
The red robed man revealed a rare smile on his face, ”You’re a great role model in the entire Five Great Empires. Countless of cultivators in the younger generation set you as their target. Not bad. My Immortal Jade Tower can accept this bit of loss. Regarding the reimbursement, you don’t need to think about it.”
With that, the red robed man waved his hand and said, ”Everyone, please temporarily leave the Immortal Jade Tower. Wait till the Immortal Jade Tower is repaired, then you can come and have a drink.”
From the start to the end, the red robed man did not mention anything about the Lei Clan. It was as though Lei Chenghe’s death was an insignificant thing.
”Ok…” The crowd of cultivators expressed their agreement as they slowly left the Immortal Jade Tower.
Mo Wuji secretly praised that man. Regardless of the sincerity behind the red robed man’s words, he had undoubtedly made use of Mo Wuji’s name to advertise his Immortal Jade Tower. Definitely, when the Immortal Jade Tower has been repaired, it will be more popular.
”Oh right, you just killed a cultivator in Yan City. According to Yan City’s law, you are to be punished. But I already helped put in a word for you, so you don’t have to worry…” Mo Wuji just walked out of the Immortal Jade Tower and that red robed man’s voice sounded in his ear.
Mo Wuji’s heart pounded as he immediately turned and bowed towards the Immortal Jade Tower. He did not say anything but that red robed man should know that he has earned a favour from Mo Wuji.
”Friends, many thanks for your support. I will have to bid my farewells for now. I hope to meet all of you again.” Mo Wuji faced the crowd with his fists clasped, expressing his gratitude for their support.
”Take care Da Shixiong…”
”Da Shixiong, Yan’Er hopes to have the chance to thanks you personally…” Xue Tongsi hurriedly added.
”Da Shixiong…”
”....”
Various farewells were said. Mo Wuji could not help but expressed his gratitude again before leaving the Yan City Plaza with Hou Yucheng.
Half an hour later, Mo Wuji and Hou Yucheng arrived at the Hundred Sect Alliance’s contribution point exchange office.
”Brother Mo, many thanks for your help. Otherwise, I would definitely have died under that Lei Chenghe’s hands today.” Up till now, Hou Yucheng finally had the chance to express offer his thanks to Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji smiled lightly and patted Hou Yucheng’s shoulders, ”Brother Hou, we’re teammates.”
This were the exact words Hou Yucheng used to help him previously. But now, the one saying it was Mo Wuji.
Hou Yucheng was slightly startled before he chuckled, ”We’re not just teammates, we’re friends.”
Some things need not be said too much. When Mo Wuji's cultivation was low and seemed to bleak without a bright future, Hou Yucheng did not look down on him, but even helped him out multiple times.
