Chapter 42.01
I became curious and watched Mo Qing and Shen Qian Jin walk far away. Soon afterwards, I ignored the sun in the sky and followed after them.
But I saw that Mo Qing had led Shen Qian Jin to a small room that was off to the side, so I drifted in right behind them. In the room, the two people stopped and Shen Qian Jin bowed her head towards Mo Qing, like a guest giving courtesy to the host: “Last night, thank you for Li Sect Leader’s assistance.”
“No need. I just conveniently rescued you, nothing more.” Mo Qing replied and then, impolitely went straight to the point to ask, “I just want to ask Shen Tower Leader, yesterday Tower Leader was there at the scene, was it because you wanted to help resurrect Luo Ming Xuan with Jian Xin Sect’s Liu Wei?”
“Luo Ming Xuan?” Shen Qian Jin frowned slightly, apparently she still did not know that the person Liu Wei and Liu Su Ruo wanted to resurrect was him. She became grave for a moment, “Last night, I just happened to receive Liu Sect Leader’s invitation to go for a meeting at Jian Xin Sect. But after I got to Jian Xin Sect, I was sneakily attacked by someone, that person injured my neck and took some blood. Through random bits of their conversation, I discovered that they wanted to use my blood to resurrect someone, but I absolutely didn’t know that that person was the Golden Immortal Luo Ming Xuan.”
“Mhm.” Mo Qing’s eyes that were always gentle when looking at me, now faintly contained a somewhat bone-piercingly cold chillness: “If you know that now, then is Shen Tower Leader going to willingly sacrifice yourself?”
Shen Qian Jin smiled: “Guan Yu Tower observes the people of the world and observes every manifestation of nature. Everything has its own way and every life or death possess their own destiny. The Golden Immortal is already in a deep sleep, which is his destiny, therefore, a living person shouldn’t be sacrificed for him. If by doing that, then what is the difference between this method and the crookedly evil demonic path?” After saying that, she paused for a moment, “Apologies, I didn’t mean to discriminate against the demonic path…”
Beside them, I stroked my chin and listened, and when I listened up to this point, I nodded my head. This cold-faced female immortal was a little interesting, no wonder after so many years, Gu Han Guang still could never forget her.
After Mo Qing heard her finished talking, the chilliness in his eyes faded a little and then, he continued to ask: “But I heard that the Ten Great Celestial Sects wish to convene for the Celestial Sects’ Convention on Xian Tai Mountain. Shen Tower Leader is most certainly going to receive an invitation, but do you plan on going to the meeting?”
“Of course.”
“In that case… Forgive Li Mo for offending you.”
As soon as Mo Qing finished speaking, Shen Qian Jin was shocked. Then at this moment, the floor around the place where Shen Qian Jin was standing suddenly sprouted up countless rays of demonic energy that formed into a fence and from all sides, it held her prisoner within it. Shen Qian Jin furrowed her eyebrows, but did not act hastily; she just narrowed her eyes and asked Mo Qing: “Li Sect Leader, what is the meaning of this?”
“Jian Xin Sect requires your blood, which means that they need you in order to resurrect Luo Ming Xuan. Shen Tower Leader understands logic, guards over the world and the ways of justice, but that does not mean that other people will think the same way. As long as Luo Ming Xuan’s golden body remains in the world for even one day, I won’t allow anyone to get an opportunity to revive him.” As Mo Qing spoke unemotionally, he walked out the door:
“Either Luo Ming Xuan’s golden body falls into my Wan Lu Sect’s hands or the corpses of Liu Su Ruo and Liu Wei are placed right in front of my face. Otherwise, I can only make Shen Tower Leader suffer a little bit, you’ll stay in this place for a few days first.”
Shen Qian Jin was speechless.
I followed Mo Qing and glided out the door, and only thought that this Ugly Little Monster truly had the ability to plan great strategies. Last night, he was injured so badly, and even after a night of treatment, he still had the time to meticulously think about these things.
It seems that… He absolutely did not want to let Luo Ming Xuan regain consciousness…
Heavens… What should I do, after yesterday’s incident, the more I looked at this Ugly Little Monster, the more pleasing he was to my eyes!
He was extremely decisive and devised strategic plans… Although his outward appearance was not intensely savage and flamboyant, but inwardly, embedded within him was truly an awe-inspiring giant dragon!
He certainly managed Wan Lu Sect super well. He even simultaneously established his authority and used benevolence to govern the common people living in the land dominated by the demonic path. Perhaps he… Could really create a prosperous age that belongs to Wan Lu Sect.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that even if I was given a sword to kill him now, I would even be a little… Reluctant.
