“This is too much!” Jun Wu Yi said seriously after recovering form the initial shock.
“Not at all! Not at all!” Tang Yuan waved his hand generously. “Third Uncle, I can do nothing but earn money, and now I do have some considerable savings!” He then lowered his voice and said secretively. “Let me tell you, Third Uncle... Do you still remember that guy who tried to boast about his wealth in Tian Xiang City? Ha, I was so angry that I called for two carriages of gold and stoned him to death on the high street with gold... ”
“Come! Welcome in our great manager Tang Yuan and serve him with the best tea!” Before Tang Yuan could finish, Jun Wu Yi had already projected his voice and given the order. He could not tolerate how inappropriate Tang Yuan was despite being one of the most powerful people on the continent currently...
“Third Uncle, I haven’t finished yet, listen to me...” Tang Yuan tried to struggle a bit as he was so proud of his heroic deeds and couldn’t wait to share.
“Get lost!” Jun Wu Yi kicked onto his humongous buttock. Tang Yuan screamed in pain but didn’t budge at all. His buttock was so flabby that it was like cotton absorbing all the force...
It seemed that being fat could also be advantageous...?
As everyone watched him, Tang Yuan grumbled and massaged his buttock. He then waved his hand again casually. Four men immediately responded to his gesture by rushing forward and laying out an object. It was a foldable soft couch. Everyone was dumbfounded as he made himself comfortable on it before waving his hand again and ordering. “Show me the way to Third Young Master Jun. Damn... So tiring to walk for so long...”
He had spoken softly with Jun Wu Yi, but Miao Xiao Miao was a solid Venerable. How could she not have heard it? She was dazed by what she had heard. Stoning people to death with gold... this fat man... how can I even describe him?
She finally forced close her mouth from the absurd scene as Tang Yuan was carried inside on the soft couch. She couldn’t help but comment very honestly. “Now I see how is he so fat...”
Everyone counted that Tang Yuan only walked on his own for less than ten steps. And now he was complaining that it was too tiring! No wonder he was so fat!
Jun Wu Yi wiped off some cold sweat as he came to the resolution that he was going to remind Mo Xie again to help Tang Yuan slim down again. Tang Yuan’s body would not be able to lift his own load if he continued to put on weight. It was a matter of life and death! Who knew why he didn’t try to boost his own health with all the magical herbs he could afford...
As Jun Wu Yi pondered on, a high-pitched boy’s voice suddenly could be heard. “Unfailing as the Sun that rises from the East, I am undefeatable! Conquer the world in no time and unify everyone for centuries! The Dongfang Family has come to congratulate...”
The voice, the slogan, it was definitely the cousin! It was Jun Mo Xie’s little cousin Dongfang Xiao Huai!
Or perhaps he should be called Dongfang Bu Bai...
Right after Tang Yuan, it was this naughty little boy. They are giving me a headache, Jun Wu Yi complained silently. But he was lucky this time that Dongfang Xiao Huai was not here alone. He could see Dongfang Wen Qing walking over with a smile...
As Jun Wu Yi welcomed the Dongfang Family warmly and ordered servants to bring them in, a sudden wave of coldness and washed over him. It was as if he were back on the peak of the Snowy Mountains!
It had to be the Master of the Blizzard Silver City leading several experts of the city to send over their well wishes...
There were no more incoming guest for a while and Jun Wu You busily attended to those that had arrived...
“Tian Xiang Empire has come to congratulate the grand opening ceremony of the Evil Monarch Manor! We present you Tian Nan City as the gift!”
The ambassador from Tian Xiang was Li You Ran, who had been Jun Mo Xie’s archenemy.
And the gift they had presented was another shock for everyone.
The “God of Wealth” Tang Yuan gave a hundred million gold and it was breathtaking enough. Who could have imagined that the Tian Xiang Empire gave an entire city! It was more stunning!
Only Mo Wu Dao and a few other well-informed individuals were not surprised.
This move by the Tian Xiang City was very strategic.
After the Evil Monarch Manor was established, the de facto leader of the Tian Nan City would no longer be the crown of the Tian Xiang Empire. Furthermore, the city was too far away from Tian Xiang City, so there was nothing the emperor could do even if he wanted to.
But the situation immediately would immediately turn the other way around if they gave it to Jun Mo Xie!
With the current capabilities of the Jun Family, they would naturally protect Tian Nan City from any form of attack or invasion! Tian Nan City might even become an impregnable city with “absolute peace”!
More importantly, the city would turn into a strong line of defence that ensured the stability of the southern parts of the empire forever!
In this manner, although it was the presentation of a gift on the surface, it actually settled a huge uncertainty factor forever! They were receiving a huge benefit with a simple favor!
How could Jun Wu Yi not be aware of their hidden agenda? But considering that Tian Xiang had been his home country, Jun Wu Yi could only smile helplessly and ask people to bring Li You Ran in.
However, the next person really made the color on Jun Wu Yi’s face change.
“Mo Wu Dao from the Elusive Word of Immortals has come to congratulate the grand opening of the Evil Monarch Manor!”
It was a very startling line indeed!
Everyone knew that the three Holy Lands would definitely send someone to attend the event, but no one expected the master of the Elusive Word of Immortals himself to be here!
Instantaneously, there was only dead silence!
“Xi Ruo Chen from the Supreme Golden City...”
“Huyan Ao Bo from the Illusory Blood Sea...”
“Miao Zhan from the Misty Illusory Manor...”
“... has come to congratulate the grand opening of the Evil Monarch Manor!”
Three more voices sounded off simultaneously, finding their way into the ears of everyone present. They were not loud and actually sounded gentle, but they didn’t fail petrifying everyone!
The leaders of the Manor and the three Holy Lands arrived at the same time!
“Thank you so much! Please come inside and enjoy some tea!” Jun Wu Yi carefully raised his voice but kept his humble posture.
“Wait a minute! Please allow me to say something. May I ask where your Manor Lord, the Evil Monarch, is?” Mo Wu Dao asked calmly. “I think we have shown enough sincerity to be here by ourselves, but your Manor Lord refuses to appear. Isn’t it... a bit too... inappropriate? Does your Manor Lord show no respect to all these heroes of the world?”
Ever since the arrival of the first group of guests the Evil Monarch, Jun Mo Xie, hadn’t appeared. Previously, most of them were his friends, so it was still understandable. But now, the guests were the leaders of the most powerful organizations in existence. Their status were high and almost on par with the Evil Monarch. Disregarding them was sort of impolite!
Upon hearing what Mo Wu Dao had said, those families affiliated with the three Holy were immediately stirred up. There was close to ten thousands of them making a commotion at the same time.
After finishing his words, Mo Wu Dao waited in silence and did nothing else. He looked totally emotionless.
His words sounded doubtful but not in a very challenging way, but hidden within was an extremely deadly trap! He had long been aware that Jun Mo Xie didn’t even show up until now. He only brought up this matter at this point of time so that it would become a deadly arrow pointing at Jun Mo Xie!
If Jun Mo Xie continued to refuse showing up, with a few more words and the help of the families supportive of them to stir up more sentiments, the newly established Evil Monarch Manor would most likely find itself against the entire world!
But if Jun Mo Xie did appear afterwards, it would seem that Jun Mo Xie was submissive.
He didn’t even appear to welcome his friends but showed up for the leaders of the three Holy Lands. Wouldn’t this mean that he was fearful?
In this case, the status of the three Holy Lands would be lifted tremendously, surpassing that of the Evil Monarch Manor. At the same time, it would undermine the bond between the Evil Monarch Manor and its allies!
Everyone expected the three Holy Lands to challenge Jun Mo Xie on this ceremony. But no one could have guessed that it happened as soon as they turned up.
It was clearly a good demonstration of the strategy of ambushing an enemy!
Before long, a casual voice suddenly became audible. “Mo Wu Dao, what are you implying? Is it that you are more noble than the other heroes that I must welcome you personally? The Evil Monarch Manor treats all heroes of the world equally. I respect them and naturally won’t deliberately make your life difficult. But what are you trying to achieve by saying this now?”
The voice was penetrating and clear but sounded as if it used minimal effort. However, it easily covered over all the rowdiness and forced itself into everyone’s head...
“That’s skilful!” Miao Zhan’s eyes flashed with a surprised glow and exclaimed softly to himself.
The speaker had a very high Xuan cultivation, demonstrated by his voice covering over the noisy crowd. However, Miao Zhan was quite certain that he could do it as well. The more admirable was the way he responded with his words. It was a quick witted response that turned the tide back against Mo Wu Dao and even glorified all the heroes of the world!
It recognized that every hero was equal to the master of the Elusive World of Immortals! It was indeed very satisfying to hear!
