Jun Mo Xie drifted in swiftly, and with a gentle flick of his finger, the three girls fell unconscious before noticing anything.
Jun Mo Xie never killed women; he was a gentleman, after all. Otherwise, there would be three corpses on the floor instead.
“Jun Mo Xie! It’s you!” The Eighth Elder immediately recognized him. Deep resentment could be seen from his eyes. “How did you get in here?” The two elders glanced at each other, and the most negative thought sprouted in their heads: Could it be that Blizzard Silver City has already fallen to the enemy? But... didn’t Elder brother say there were hundreds of experts from Three Holy Lands that were helping us handle the Jun Family? How could we lose so easily?
“How I came in shouldn’t be of importance,;what is important to you guys is that I’m here to congratulate you two! You will be leaving this place to see the sunlight again! Hahaha! Are you surprised!”
Jun Mo Xie didn’t have time to waste grinding teeth with them, so he swiftly blocked their acupuncture points. With his current abilities as a second level Venerable, defeating these two Spirit Xuan Xuan experts was effortless—his opponents had no room for retaliation!
He easily restrained the elders and moved on to the next part of his plan. Divine light burst forth from his eyes. “Great Spirit Deterrence Technique !” This time, without any external help, using his purest spiritual energy, he instantly hypnotized the two.
Under the influence of the demonic divine light from Jun Mo Xie’s eyes, the expression of the two elders slowly changed from anger to confusion, before softening to a gentle look of complete submission.
The Great Spirit Deterrence Technique that Jun Mo Xie had used this time and the one he used back when he was at the base rank of Sky Xuan had the same theory, but the effects created were of different tiers!
The hypnosis this time would be the most basic, but also the purest.
Tonight, I will turn Blizzard Silver City upside down!
Jun Mo Xie let out a cruel smile, the demonic divine light in his eyes glowing brighter.
Meanwhile, the argument in the Silver City Great Hall between the Han and Xiao families had reached a boiling point.
Donning a sorrowful expression, Han Zhan Meng spoke. “Xiao Xing Yun, since the building of Blizzard Silver City, the Han Family has always abidec by the teachings of our ancestors to take extra care of the Xiao Family. If there is any benefit to be gained, the Xiao Family will get it first and Han Family will only take from the leftovers. If there is any threat, the Han Family will always be the first to eradicate the threat while the Xiao Family waits in comfort. There has been countless evidence for such matters.”
“Take the recent case when you killed the two members of the Jun Family, which triggered the insane pursuit of the Dongfang Family. If not for my father breaking the rules and imploring Yun Bie Chen for help to suppress the Dongfang Family, did you think the combined powers of your brothers would be enough to win against the lady of the Dongfang Family? The Xiao Family would have been wiped out during that incident!”
“Our ancestors have been bonded by brotherly ties for hundreds of years and have always treated each other with respect and care. But to think that when it came to your generation, not only did you plot to snatch the Lord’s position, you even ruthlessly killed your own brothers! Such unacceptable actions! Even the Heavens would be enraged! Xiao Xing Yun, search your conscience to see if you can still show your face to your ancestors of the Xiao Family who have spilt blood and died for Silver City!”
“Well said! Han Zhan Meng, since you’ve spoken, it is my turn to ask you instead. The teachings of our ancestors still hang on the wall, even today. You also said that my ancestors sacrificed their lives for Silver City, but how did you treat us? To think that you even have the cheek to bring this up! Who exactly is the one whose words do not match their actions!”
Xiao Xing Yun’s face was filled with anguish and anger, to the point that his beard was trembling. Pointing a finger, he continued, “Xiao Han and Yan Yao, who were childhood sweethearts; when we decided on their marriage, did anyone have any objections? It was supposed to be a wonderful affair after they wed when they were of age, spending the rest of their lives together! But you, Han Zhan Meng, have failed in discipling your daughter! After your daughter left the mountains, she immediately fell for someone else and said that she would not marry anyone else! The marriage arrangement was still valid, but she even pulled such a stunt, completely insulting the Xiao Family!”
He sighed and continued, “How can we let it go so easily after suffering such a great insult! I’m sure that if it’s any other family, they would not let it go so easily either! But not only did you not reprimand your daughter’s misdoings, and even prevent us from getting our revenge, you forced us to swallow our grievances like that! The Xiao Family is also one of the influential families! We have our pride and dignity too! Did you consider that? No, you didn’t bother about our reputation and only sided with your daughter. What sort of logic is that! To not be allowed to seek revenge when his own wife was stolen! Which man on this earth would be able to swallow this humiliation!”
With bloodshot eyes, Han Zhan Meng spat, “Xiao Xing Yun, you don’t have to twist the facts here! The facts were set clear from the start, and indeed the marriage was decided when Yan Yao was young. But it was reiterated that it as long as they had feelings for each other after they grew up, the wedding would commence! But if they didn’t, there was room for discussion! The elders of both families were present to witness this! I believe everyone still remembers this!
“And I’m sure everyone is aware of how Xiao Han is as a person after he grew up, so I will not elaborate on this. Only Yan Yao had been against his actions from beginning to end, and even before they left the mountain for their training, she begged repeatedly for the marriage arrangement to be called off, and there was even an instance where she knelt before you for help. Did you forget about that incident? I recall you saying that ‘marriage is a great affair that determines the rest of their lives, and if they really could not get along, there was no need to force them to go through with it’. You were the one that said this, did you possibly forget?”
“With all those prior statements, while the wedding arrangement existed, it was purely only in name! But who in the entire Blizzard Silver City was unaware of this truth? How did we tarnish the Xiao Family’s name! Even when Yan Yao left the mountain and met the Third Master Jun, Jun Wu Yi, and they developed feelings for each other, Yan Hao never revealed her real identity! She did this to protect the image of your Xiao Family! All she wanted was to seek our approval after returning to officially call off the marriage arrangement, and then reveal her real identity to Jun Wu Yi so our three families can live together in harmony. Both of us learnt of this matter at the same time back then when Yan Yao returned. Were you going to pretend that you were muddle-headed and cannot remember? What purpose do you have in twisting the facts and using it as reason for your acts!
“It was obvious that Jun Wu Yi had no idea of the situation and everyone else in the Jun Family was innocent. But the Xiao Family went down with such great fanfare to capture Yan Yao and even threaten the Jun Family. As the daughter of the Lord of Silver City, to be forcefully escorted back! I did not say anything back then only because I felt apologetic to Xiao Family. But everyone knows that it made no sense because we of the Han Family had request to call off the marriage first. But you didn’t stop there and even colluded with rogues to murder the White Commander, Jun Wu Hui, and his brothers. To even purposely not kill Jun Wu Yi but leave him crippled waist down, how wrong was it for the Jun Family!”
“They had no clue of Yan Yao’s real identity from start till end, but still had to suffer such vicious blows! Even Jun Mo You and Jun Mo Chou died without knowing why they had been killed! Had the Dongfang Family not intervened, would the Xiao Family not feel as if their actions were too much?”
“Then you blew this matter up after returning to Silver City to force Yan Yao to marry Xiao Han immediately! Threatening her with the Jun Family to make her cut herself to the point she was almost dying and leaving her to live alone in sword peak! It has been ten years since then! Why is it that after all this happened, you conveniently forgot about everything you said before? Overbearing and forceful in every way! The Han Family did not pursue this matter as we stayed true to our ancestor’s teachings. When you requested the marriage arrangement between Xiao Feng Wu and Meng’er, I agreed to it without creating any difficulties despite not being in support of the idea! It was purely because I thought it would compensate for the failed marriage arrangement. You can even say that it was an act of benevolence! Xiao Xing Yun, recall carefully, the acts by Xiao Family for the past ten years; have you ever respected the Han Family as masters? On the entire hand, in the past hundred of years, was there even a day where we treated the Xiao Family as servants? I can’t help but scorn at the words you have spoken!”
Xiao Xing Yun laughed coldly, “Indeed, most of what you said was the truth! I did make those statements and also admit that the arrangement could be called off! But fact is that your daughter, who knew no self-respect, got together with someone else before the wedding was officially called off! I’ve always been a reasonable person; had the marriage been properly called-off, you would have been able to marry your daughter to whoever you wanted. That would have been your problem, not the Xiao Family’s! Furthermore, I also watched Yan Yao grow up and treated her like my own daughter; why wouldn’t I wish to see her happy? Even if she married into another family after the marriage was called off, I wouldn’t have made things difficult for her, and whoever did would have faced my wrath!”
“Can you even believe what you are saying?” Han Zhan Meng felt like vomiting. It was so rare for someone to be this shameless! You drove your own daughter to a dead end, and you dare say you treat her as one of your own? To think that he had the cheek to say that!
