Chapter 858: Five Punches (2/2)
”You are Mo Wuji?” Qu Yang also came to a realisation; the person in front of him was indeed Mo Wuji.
Towards Mo Wuji, he only felt utmost respect and admiration. If not for Mo Wuji, he would have still been trapped in that canyon. If not for Mo Wuji, he would not have been able to leave Half Immortal Domain. While Mo Wuji might not have brought him away, Mo Wuji had forcefully opened the transfer array between Half Immortal Domain and the Edge of Yong Ying. That had saved countless of lives.
Moreover, Mo Wuji’s character was even more worthy of respect. Back in Half Immortal Domain, Mo Wuji was the only one that dared to disciple Meng Tianyu, as well as that Dao Lord Guang Quan.
Besides Mo Wuji, who else dared? Not only must one have the backbone, one must also have the ability.
”It’s me. I really didn’t think that we would meet again at Ding Po Immortal City. Exactly what’s going on? Who are these people? Why were they nailed to death here because of me?” Mo Wuji was also rather elated; he didn’t think that the person he casually saved was actually Qu Yang.
Before Qu Yang could answer, a cold voice interrupted, ”Mo Wuji, you are truly bold. You actually dare to show yourself in Ding Po Immortal City.”
”Shua…” More than ten figures descended from the sky, surrounding Mo Wuji.
When Mo Wuji saw the people surrounding him, he didn’t even bat an eyelid. Among these ten over people, there were only four Immortal Emperors; there was one late-stage Immortal Emperor, one intermediate stage Immortal Emperor, and two early stage Immortal Emperors. The rest were either Immortal Kings or Immortal Reverents.
Mo Wuji felt speechless; back when he was in Oblique Space Sea Island, the people that surrounded were all experts at the level of Dao Emperors. There was no need to talk about Oblique Space Sea Island, even back in Cosmos Edge, the people that tried to kill him were either Immortal Emperors or Grand Emperors.
His powers had already increased since that time; his cultivation had even reached the intermediate Immortal Emperor Stage. However, the people encircling him actually got weaker.
”Mo Wuji, the Heaven truly has virtues. We also do not wish to kill you. Just tie yourself and allow yourself to be captured. We also do not wish to destroy Ding Po Immortal City.” The one speaking was the late stage Immortal Emperor.
Clearly, he had heard stories of Mo Wuji and he knew that Mo Wuji was not simple.
Mo Wuji did not look at him. Instead, he faced one of the intermediate stage Immortal Emperor and said, ”If I’m not wrong, you should be Chen Hu’s father, right?”
This intermediate stage Immortal Emperor looked similar to Chen Hu. Additionally, the energy of his cultivation technique was also the same. Mo Wuji guessed that this person was Chen Hu’s father.
This intermediate stage Immortal Emperor clasped his fists towards Mo Wuji and nodded, ”That’s right. This Emperor is Chen San. I have heard stories about you from Chen Hu. You are truly not a bad person. It’s just that…”
Chen San didn’t continue any further. He felt that any further words would not be appropriate.
Mo Wuji calmly asked, ”Chen Hu and I could be considered acquaintances. Since you are Chen Hu’s father, I want to ask you something, how’s my Ping Fan Immortal School?”
Mo Wuji still hadn’t received a reply from the message that he sent to Ping Fan.
Chen San hesitated momentarily but he still said, ”Ping Fan Immortal School is slightly damaged, but the place is still there.”
When Mo Wuji heard those words, the killing intent in his heart burned fervently. Chen San’s words might sound simple, but Mo Wuji knew that it was far from that. If his Ping Fan was really destroyed, then he would go around paying a visit to everyone that contributed to its destruction.
Ping Fan was his legacy. Anyone that destroyed his legacy must compensate with their lives.
”Dao Friend Chen San, I have one word. It’s up to you whether you choose to listen. I have interacted with Chen Hu before, and Chen Hu is really a good person. Thus, I have never treated Chen Hu as my enemy…”
Before Mo Wuji could finish speaking, Chen San immediately said, ”Sect Head Mo, I understand what you’re saying.”
After which, Chen San clasped his fists towards everyone and said, ”Everyone should know what I, Chen San, am like. My son, Chen Hu, is still missing and it’s unknown whether he is even alive. Sect Head Mo used to have a cordial relationship with Chen Hu. I will not join you in dealing with Sect Head Mo.”
Actually, Chen San already felt that it was disgraceful for so many people to gang up against Mo Wuji who didn’t even seem to be at the Immortal Emperor Stage. Moreover, Chen Hu had said it before: Mo Wuji was not simple and was full of potential. Of course, Chen San knew that Mo Wuji’s potential was going to be wasted. It’s just that he still remembered his son’s words.
A gloomy voice said, ”Chen San, you should also know whose order this is. There are so many sects in the Immortal World that support this. On the other hand, this Mo Wuji is probably only an Immortal Reverent at the very most. There would be no difference whether you participate or not. But if you choose to retreat like this, you cannot blame others when you suffer the consequences.”
”Haha…” Chen San chuckled, ”I, Chen San, don’t need to listen to your criticisms to what I do.”
With that, Chen San’s figure flashed and he retreated to the sides.
”Attack.” Seeing Chen San retreat and that Mo Wuji didn’t seem to have any intentions of turning himself in, that late stage Immortal Emperor ordered harshly. He was the first one to attack with his magic treasure.
Qu Yang truly wanted to help. Unfortunately, he wasn’t even comparable to an ant among these people. There was no need to talk about helping; just standing among the pressure of these experts already made it difficult for him to even breath.
Mo Wuji didn’t even move. Within his domain, all that suffocating pressure disappeared without a trace. It seemed as though he didn’t notice the magic treasures moving towards him. He simply stood there and released five punches.
