Jun Mo Xie rolled his eyes and snorted coldly. “Not mentioning the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master, we can’t endure the three Holy Lands or the Misty Illusory Manor either. Do we have to kill them as well? Utter nonsense! What kind of reasoning is that?”
“Brother-in-law, whether this matter is reasonable or not, we still have no choice!” Long Crane said bitterly. “The Mystic Phoenix has already been sent out. That means that in a short while, the peak experts of the Misty Illusory Manor and the three Holy Lands will arrive! Furthermore, they are Saint King and Saint Emperor level people! If we don’t let them in, we will become the public enemy of all humans! In that case, they will have ample reason to join hands to deal with us, and in a very righteous way too... But if we let them in, although we suffer some losses from the battle, we just need to let the forest recover for a few years and Tian Fa will still be Tian Fa...”
“Besides, the reason they’re coming in here to deal with the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master is all for the sake of the wellbeing of the people and the peace of the world. We don’t have any reasons to reject them. In fact, we need to lend our aid...”
“What bullsh*t?! Based on your logic, we should let them do whatever they like? They’re here to make trouble and destroy our homes, but we should wave flags and cheer for them, lend them our aid, and receive them with smiles? Nonsense!”
Jun Mo Xie spat huffily.
“Also, since they’re Saint King and Saint Emperor level people, do they still need our permission to step into Tian Fa Forest? Couldn’t they just come in? Who can stop them? Stopping them will be the equivalent of turning us into public enemies of humanity? I’ll like to ask, when have people ever treated Xuan Beasts as their companions? Was hunting and massacring Xuan Beasts for their Xuan Cores not something that humans did?
“Wellbeing of the world...? How has Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master ever harmed the safety of the world? The only ones he wants to conquer are just the three Holy Lands and Misty Illusory Manor! What does that have to do with the world? Not to mention other stuff, has the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master ever sought to initiate harm against Tian Fa’s Xuan Beasts? Why must you all help those hypocrites deal with him? Are those reasons you mentioned really valid?” Jun Mo Xie asked sharply.
Hearing these words, all the Beast Kings looked at each other in uncertainty.
Indeed, before this, those who were trying to deal with the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master only repeated the words: for the sake of all world! Everyone knew that Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master was a devilish person! The moment he was released, the world would experience a great calamity!
But truthfully, when the Nine Nether Young Masters appeared, while they were indeed very domineering and their ambition was remarkably high as well, whether it be to unify the continent or to rule the world, their actions did not seem to affect the world at all. What did ‘the world’ mean? It referred to the common people!
No matter who the ones at the top were, the common people were completely unaffected!
The common people only asked for the simplest stuff! Food for their bellies and warm clothes on their backs! It was good enough for them as long as they were able to continue their way of life. As for who got to rule, they did not care much!
The world needed a sovereign ruler eventually, but as for the identity of the ruler, it wasn’t very important to the commoners!
The ones who truly felt threatened were the highest echelons of the continent: the three Holy Lands and Misty Illusory Manor!
As for the commoners, they were instead completely ignored by proud madmen like the Nine Nether Young Masters...
It was similar to how a fearsome dragon did not concern itself with the opinions of the ants! They only viewed the experts who had the ability to hinder their conquest as threats!
“Brother-in-law means... could it be that all this was just an excuse...” Long Crane widened his eyes with disbelief. When the beliefs a person held for a long time were smashed in an instant, no one would be able to accept that reality in a short time.
“Wellbeing of the world, safety of the common people... why the f*ck do they link everything to the fate of the common people? Those bunch of hypocrites!” Jun Mo Xie spat with rage. “Why must every single one of those f*ckers be so fake! Why can’t they just admit straight up that they aren’t willing to be stepped on, under the feet of another person, that they aren’t willing to let a foreign expert rule and unify the continent? What’s the point of making so many ridiculous excuses, as if they’re some kind of saints...”
“There must always be an excuse for everything... it would justify and make every action more presentable...” Big Bear said with sudden enlightenment.
“Excuse!? Hmph!” Jun Mo Xie’s sharp eyes pierced through the mist as he snorted coldly. “Since that’s the case, you guys back off first. Prepare to receive those Saint Kings. I’ll stay here a little longer; I truly do not wish to face those dogfart hypocrites.”
Long Crane and the rest sighed and quickly left. Not long after, only Jun Mo Xie was left.
No matter what, I will not allow the place that I’ve decided to call home and the home of the magnificent Xuan Beasts to be destroyed by those hypocrites just as they like! Jun Mo Xie narrowed his eyes ruthlessly as he thought in his heart. Perhaps you all had a great time bullying Tian Fa and using them. However, things are different now! Because I, Jun Mo Xie is now in Tian Fa as well! I’m not like those naive Xuan Beasts...
Jun Mo Xie’s face grew conflicted as if he were ruminating over something very intensely. After a long time, he gritted his teeth, and a crazed expression appeared on his face. I, Jun Mo Xie, am unwilling to be somebody else’s dog! Even if they’re Saint Emperors, or the Misty Illusory Palace!
Heaven watches as man goes about his deeds, and makes his destiny. Since I’ve settled down in Tian Fa right on the eve of Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master’s appearance, it means that even the heavens are no longer able to tolerate the unbridled actions of those hypocrites! I shall let those self righteous bastards know one thing. Those who scheme against others shall be schemed against by others as well! We will see whose schemes are deeper and who will be the one being toyed to death!”
Young Master Jun’s figure blurred, and his corporeal body suddenly turned into an intangible shadow. With a light shake, even this shadow also disappeared...
At the same time, the tremors in the ground also grew heavier.
Beneath the ground, a great power that seemed intent on destroying everything also grew more and more powerful!
It was as if that primordial demonic god would rise up from the dust at any time!
A shrill screech rang out from the Misty Illusory Manor’s Beguiling Mist...
***
In the two months the Jun Family was overseeing the entire Tian Fa Forest and building a fixed lodging for themselves, the entire continent was uncannily quiet. A few days after the Jun Family pulled out of Tian Xiang City, many strange people arrived in the city, enquiring and asking about things in a covert manner, as if they were trying to find out some matters.
Every day, there would be quite a few people sneaking into the old Jun Family residence, exploring the huge manor. Jun Mo Xie’s little courtyard was especially visited by these mysterious people.
There was also the Grave of the Affectionate Couple. That place that had appeared all of a sudden in the span of a single night was visited by even more people. Each tree and very single blade of grass was inspected carefully...
Anything or anyone that was related to the Jun Family was fully investigated by these unknown people...
Tian Xiang’s new ruler Yang Huai Nong, heeding Li You Ran’s advice, looked and listened to everything, not asking and acted completely oblivious to the whole situation...
Finally, half a month later, the mysterious figures disappeared tracelessly in the span of a single night. Nothing was left behind, and it was as if they had never been there...
Even the old Jun Family did not suffer any damage. Nothing was moved, and even the grass and trees were completely unharmed...
At the same time, all large families in the continent were roused into a fluster. Because the fairly powerful Duanmu Family and Sikong Family had fallen overnight!
The businesses the two families had were cut off in just a single day!
All their connections and clients practically cut their relationships with the two families at the same time.
This was an unimaginably queer matter. Because no matter who was controlling the show behind the scenes, it shouldn’t have been so clean and so swift. Furthermore, nobody was hurt or killed at all.
But this unimaginable matter had indeed happened...
Anything that came out of the two large families’ workshops, no matter how exquisite or how beautiful, were suddenly undesirable. Even things that would originally sell for sky high prices turned into worthless dog poop... Their stocked goods were completely unretailable. All their import channels were also mysteriously cut off.
All kinds of trouble also appeared within the family. Many of the younger generation members stood up and left, taking away a significant portion of business shares. Strangely, any businesses they snatched away from the family managed to operate normally again, without any obstructions. Even if the business was completely lifeless a day ago, the instant it left the hands of the original family, it instantly recovered to its former position, and some even saw a period of great growth...
In a single night, these two great families went nearly bankrupted!
The only thing they could do except living off their savings, was... nothing...
Strangely, these two large families did not display any unhappiness or disgruntlement. They only endured everything silently...
The Magnificent Jewel Halls that Blizzard Silver City owned, spread out in various parts of all the cities in the continent ,were suddenly boycotted against at the same time! The staffs and personnels were unchanged, but all the items were quickly repatriated to Blizzard Silver City...
Blizzard Silver City similarly did not raise any troubles, as if these matters were exceedingly ordinary...
In contrast, the Dongfang Family, who recently formally announced their return, wasn’t met with any resistance or suppression.
If the three families could be said to have been suppressed because of their relationship with the Jun Family, then the Dongfang Family, which was the closest to the Jun Family, was instead displaying signs of rapid growth day by day! What, then, was the meaning behind this?
One month after the Jun Family’s departure, the Dongfang Family announced their return!
The collapse of the snow-covered sword peak and the driving out of all Xuan Beasts from Tian Fa!
This vow had already been fulfilled. Although the Dongfang Family knew that wasn’t a good time to announce their return, but since the vow had already been fulfilled and the entire world was watching them... they couldn’t not return!
Furthermore, there were many people anticipating and looking forward to their return...
The members of the Dongfang Family especially had grown impatient!
After a full 10 years of hiding away, everyone in the Dongfang Family could hardly bear it!
They needed to vent their emotions!
They needed to allow the once feared name of the Dongfang Family Assassins to herald their glorious return!
After some long and difficult consideration and one month of observation, Old Madam Dongfang decided that even if the three Holy Lands moved to suppress and shut down all their business, they would at most revert to their life as a hermit for the time being. It wasn’t that big a deal...
After all with the status of the three Holy Lands, they couldn’t possibly just gather in front of their residence with forks and pitches to slaughter them! After much thought and under fervent requests from other members of the family, the old madam finally announced their return!
An announcement to the entire continent!
The assassins family of old has finally returned!
Following that, the strangest events truly begun...
