Chapter 638: Rejecting The Good Intentions (2/2)
The Great Kun Buddhist Lamp was exchanged for with Yuan Yi’s life; Su Xi probably wouldn’t want to hand it over to the Great Kun Buddhist Sect. As for Yuan Yi, if she had been willing to hand it over to the Great Kun Buddhist Sect, that she wouldn’t have carried the lamp dish around for several years by herself.
”Benefactor Mo…”
Just as Guang Xing said these two words, Mo Wuji raised his hands to stop him, ”Master Guang Xing, I think it’s better to call me Pill Master Mo.”
The Great Kun Buddhist Lamp wasn’t his, so he didn’t have the rights to be called a benefactor.
Guang Xing did not mind as he changed the address, ”Pill Master Mo, on behalf of Great Kun Buddhist Sect, Guang Xing would, once again, like to thank you for saving my sect’s Yuan Yi and her disciple…”
Mo Wuji interupted Guang Xing’s words again, ”Master Guang Xing, I really don’t dare to accept your gratitude. Yuan Yi was from the Meditation Nunnery. I’m don’t really know what’s the relationship between Meditation Nunnery and Great Kun Buddhist Sect, nor am I interested to know. I had only saved Junior Sister Su Xi casually. Su Xi had already thanked me, so there’s no need for any further thanks from anyone else.”
Mo Wuji really didn’t dare to acknowledge such a gratitude on behalf of Su Xi. If he did so, it would be equivalent to saying that the Great Kun Buddhist Lamp was the Great Kun Buddhist Sect’s. If he accepted it, he would be making things hard for her.
Tai Sha, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly had a solemn expression on the face. The three buddhist beads on her neck started to glow with grey light. When Mo Wuji felt this light, he unconsciously released his domain.
This grey light was killing intent. He never expected that this Tai Sha would be so murderous; he had merely said a sentence and she had already developed killing intent towards him.
Guang Xing began to chant the names of Buddha, then he said, ”Pill Master Mo, Yuan Yi has a lamp called the Great Kun Buddhist Lamp. This buddhist lamp is the core treasure of my Great Kun Buddhist Sect. Now that Yuan Yi has perished, I request that Pill Master Mo return the buddhist lamp to my Great Kun Buddhist Sect. My Great Kun Buddhist Sect will be endlessly grateful.”
When Mo Wuji heard these words, he began to seethe in anger. He understood it now. Previously, he believed that Guang Xing wanted to use him to get to Su Xi. But from the looks of it, this person believed that the Great Kun Buddhist Lamp was in his, Mo Wuji’s, hands.
They were saying that it wasn’t out of goodwill that he, Mo Wuji, saved Su Xi. And that he did it for the Great Kun Buddhist Lamp. He had thought too much of a gentleman in Guang Xing. It was truly hard to be a good person in this day and age.
”Master Guang Xing, I said it before. I don’t know anything about the Great Kun Buddhist Sect. I had only helped Meditation Nunnery’s Yuan Yi and her disciple. If Master Guang Xing has a matter, you should find the people from Meditation Nunnery. I am not related to this.”
Mo Wuji did not want to create another enemy of the Great Kun Buddhist Sect. Even though Guang Xing suspected him, he still wanted things to end calmly. If Su Xi was willing to hand the Great Kun Buddhist Lamp, then it woudn’t be his matter anymore. If Su Xi wasn’t willing, then with Zhuo Pingan, Guang Xing and Tai Sha wouldn’t be able to do anything.
”Hmm!” Tai Sha snorted coldly, ”Pill Master Mo, an honest man doesn’t lie. How could a little girl like Su Xi be your opponent? You dare say that you didn’t save Su Xi because of the Great Kun Buddhist Lamp? If it was anything else, my Great Kun Buddhist Sect wouldn’t have mind. But we must take back our Great Kun Buddhist Lamp. If Pill Master Mo doesn’t want things to blow up, then return the Great Kun Buddhist Lamp to its rightful owner. If you’re not willing, my Great Kun Buddhist Sect also has a Grand Emperor existence and we’re not afraid of you.”
Looks like the other party was bent on believing that he was the big bad wolf that saved a little white rabbit. Mo Wuji knew that there was no use for any further debate, nor was he even interested in debating. He slowly stood up and said indifferently, ”The fact that your Great Kun Buddhist Sect has a Grand Emperor is none of my business, nor will I be threatened. Moroever, I don’t want to continue wasting my words pointlessly. As for the Great Kun Buddhist Lamp that you guys want, I don’t know anything about it.”
With that, Mo Wuji couldn’t be bothered about the two of them as he turned and walked out of the pavilion.
For no good reason, he had another burden on his back. Mo Wuji really felt really discontented. Moreover, he was also very sure that even if he gave the Great Kun Buddhist Lamp to Guang Xing, people would still believe that the Great Kun Buddhist Lamp was with him.
…
Even though he was still interested in the gift that the yellow robed youth from the Very High Heavens brought, Mo Wuji no longer had the mood to stay here. He hastily walked out of the Heavenly Chasm Pond; there were some matters that he needed to make prior preparations for.
Facing a big sect like the Great Kun Buddhist Sect, Mo Wuji did not have the confidence that he would be able to protect Su Xi; it would already be great if he could protect himself.
”Master, that Mo Wuji is leaving.” The moment Mo Wuji’s front foot left Heavenly Chasm Pond, Ni Ju alerted anxiously.
Sa Jian stared at Mo Wuji’s disappearing figure and snorted coldly, ”He temporarily wouldn’t leave Heavenly Chasm City. Now that he would be regrouping with Zhuo Pingan, we wouldn’t be a match for him. He had swallowed the Great Kun Buddhist Lamp for himself, so the Great Kun Buddhist Sect wouldn’t let him go. When the time comes, we can ally with the Great Kun Buddhist Sect and the Lightning Sect to get rid of him.”
Ni Ju understood his master’s meaning. Destroying Tian Ji Sect was done by his master, Sa Jian. To be honest, it wasn’t really related much to the Great Sword Path. Because this was a private grudge between Sa Jian and Mo Wuji, they really couldn’t request for the sect’s Immortal Emperors to help.
