Chapter 962: Help Me Kill This Person

Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations

When embraced by Mian He, Mei Qianqian's dead eyes seemed to gain a trace of life. However, she didn't react to anything that Jing Wei said, simply staring back with a mocking look in her eyes.

In his heart, Mo Wuji laughed coldly. This Jing Wei actually treated him as a dumbass. From Earth to the Cultivation World, Immortal World, and finally the God Domain, how many schemes and hardships had he endured? Even if Mei Qianqian did not rebut, he knew that there was something wrong here.

The problem wasn't that Mei Qianqian had slept with many men, but with the accusation that her lover killed her husband.

He could see that Xi Lingru, while being a scheming person, still had a baseline. If Mei Qianqian could kill her husband, even being assisted by her lover, then how would Xi Lingru have let her remain in the Minor High Firmament Sect as Mountain Lord of Firmament Pond Mountain? Regardless how important the Mei Clan Manor was, he could still lock Mei Qianqian up to reach the same outcome.

But in reality, when Mo Wuji was Mei Qianqian, she was a free woman.

”Elder Sister Mei, do you have anything to say?” Mo Wuji ignored Jing Wei and asked Mei Qianqian directly.

Mei Qianqian just laughed, ”Thank you for not allowing me to die while disgraced in this person's hands. My conscience is clear. I never thought that you would achieve this much, and it seems like I…”

She could not continue speaking as she was sure that Mo Wuji was not a rogue cultivator that went to the Mei Clan Manor in search of low tier god spiritual herbs. With his level of skill, how could he have been one? It was just that she never felt the need to ask about his background.

As for what Jing Wei said, she didn't bother to rebut them. Mo Wuji was obviously a cultivator who could enter the Mei Clan Manor and exit unscathed, so how could he be ordinary? If this kind of person could not see through Jing Wei's words, then it would be pointless for her to argue.

Nodding his head, Mo Wuji bowed respectfully at Xi Lingru, ”Sect Head Xi, I would like to ask why you allowed Elder Sister Mei to stay at Firmament Pond Mountain and also protect her?”

What Mo Wuji was saying and doing was definitely not the actions of an ignorant rogue cultivator, thus Xi Lingru knew that there was no need for him to lie, ”Wuji, it was all the request of the previous Mountain Lord of Firmament Pond Mountain, You Zhuo. He asked me to take care of Mei Qianqian before he died.”

”Brother Zhuo, I have let you down…” Tears streamed down Mei Qianqian's eyes after she heard Xi Lingru's explanation.

”So was Mountain Lord Zhuo killed by Mei Qianqian and someone else?” Mo Wuji asked again.

Xi Lingru grinned bitterly, ”No”

Yet, Jing Wei continued acting as though as he didn't know that his lie was exposed and smiled while looking at Mo Wuji, ”Mo Wuji, our sect head has his own standards, hence it's only natural for him to not speak of those shameless acts.”

Mian He suddenly pointed at Jing Wei and shouted, ”Jing Wei, you beast. Back then you harmed Mountain Lord You with your accomplices and even imprisoned my lady's younger brother, Mei Feng'Er. You used that to blackmail my lady to sleep with all of the elders in the sect and bring them to your side. In order to save her husband and younger brother, my lady endured the shame and did what you asked. But in the end, you didn't let the Mountain Lord or my lady's younger brother go, you, you…”

Although Mian He didn't mention anything about what happened in between the incidents, Mo Wuji had a rough idea and his face turned black. He didn't agree with how Mei Qianqian dealt with the situation, but if anyone was in her shoes, the only option available would be to follow Jing Wei's instructions.

No wonder the Minor High Firmament Sect looked down on Mei Qianqian that much. Not only was she involved with many elders and high level members of the sect, she also met Jing Wei's requests.

”Beast.” Yu Chuo shot a despising look at Jing Wei.

”Mo Wuji, since you're not willing to discuss the growing of Green Dew Rice with me, I'll make a move first. On the account of your contributions in Green Dew Rice to the sect, I won't touch Mei Qianqian.” Jing Wei turned and left after speaking.

Mo Wuji laughed coldly. He knew Jing Wei could see that he had obtained the support of Chi Kun and Yu Chuo.

Since Mo Wuji didn't say anything, Xi Lingru couldn't speak as well. He respected Jing Tian, which is why he let Jing Wei run loose, but this didn't mean that Jing Wei could disregard the future of the Minor High Firmament Sect. Mo Wuji was the future of the sect, hence he couldn't ignore Mo Wuji.

”Stay here for a while longer, wait till Wuji has settled this incident first.” Xi Lingru stopped Jing Wei.

Hearing the sect head asking him to stop, Jing Wei's expression turned ugly.

”Sect head, this isn't that good right? No matter what the young sect head did wrong, it isn't up to an outsider to point fingers at him.” The elder that scolded Mo Wuji previously frowned as he spoke up.

Although he was just an advanced Worldly God, he was extremely senior in the sect. Even Sect Head Xi Lingru wasn't as senior as him.

Of course, from another perspective, one could say that this person wasted most of his life.

”Dao Friend Chi, Dao Friend Yu, I wonder what the both of you have come to visit me for?” Mo Wuji surprisingly put Jing Wei's issue to one side, instead he asked Chi Kun for the reason behind their visit.

But no one thought that Mo Wuji did anything wrongly. Only someone who thought things through would ask this question.

What was Mo Wuji banking on now? It was his research in Green Dew Rice. The reason Chi Kun and Yu Chuo were here was that Mo Wuji was an expert in growing Green Dew Rice, and they supported Mo Wuji naturally for Green Dew Rice.
