Chapter 773: Beg for Forgiveness?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Zhongyu Sect was ranked third amongst the ten great ancient martial arts sects. It was ranked above the Crimson Star Sect, meaning that the members of Zhongyu Sect were naturally unafraid of them.
However, it would be hard for Zhongyu Sect to completely go against the Crimson Star Sect in normal circumstances. Wang Qinghan wanted to take this opportunity to become closer to Mo Wen. Compared to that, offending the Crimson Star Sect was not even worth mentioning.
She had been unaware that the Crimson Star Sect had recently sent out a martial arts notice telling everyone that they were going to destroy Dafang Sect. However, they had therefore offended the terrifying existence that was Mo Wen. Had they grown dizzy with success and were they about to get into trouble?
She did not know what enmity Mo Wen had with the Crimson Star Sect. But, going by Mo Wen’s expression, she doubted that it was anything good.
“Senior, how did the Crimson Star Sect offend you?” Little Tang asked curiously. “They are brave, although foolish, to do so.” She had seen how terrifying Mo Wen could be. She had never seen anyone so scary in her entire life. She had always thought that the Elder of Zhongyu Sect was the most powerful person in the martial arts circle. Now, she understood that the Elder’s cultivation was only just the beginning.
Mo Wen poured himself a glass of red wine from the fridge. The smile on the corner of his lips was a little cold. “The Crimson Star Sect told me to go to them and beg for forgiveness within three days. I have to die to pay for my sins. Since they want me to go, I shall do as they wish.”
“What!”
Wang Qinghan and Little Tang were both shocked. They had told Mo Wen to die to pay for his sins? Was the Crimson Star Sect crazy? Mo Wen was a martial arts grandmaster. He was a martial arts grandmaster who stood above all warriors! They would never have imagined that the Crimson Star Sect would dare to do something like that.
Wang Qinghan seemed to have suddenly thought of something. She turned to look at Mo Wen with an expression of surprise. She stuttered, “Senior…could it be…could it be…you are the…sect leader…of Dafang Sect…!”
When she connected the notice the Crimson Star Sect had sent out to the martial arts circle to this, Wang Qinghan immediately thought of this possibility. Dafang Sect’s sect leader was a martial arts grandmaster! Oh god! Wang Qinghan could sense her heart giving out. The nameless Dafang Sect had a sect leader who was a martial arts grandmaster. Then, the Ten Great Sects, what were they even!
“So Senior is the sect leader of Dafang Sect…” Little Tang’s expression was very interesting. She had not known much about the Dafang Sect before this. However, the Crimson Star Sect had sent out a notice to the martial arts circle and the name therefore became known. Everyone talked about the sect when they had nothing to do. They wondered how Dafang Sect had offended the Crimson Star Sect to the extent that destruction was likely to be brought upon them.
“What’s the matter? Do I not look like the sect leader of Dafang Sect?” Mo Wen asked with a smile.
“No, that’s not it…” Wang Qinghan shook her head awkwardly. She had always thought that Mo Wen was from a secret organization. The organization might possibly be beyond the scope of the ordinary martial arts world. For example, Huatian Palace was a very special existence. Otherwise, how would a normal faction be able to nurture such a powerful existence like Mo Wen? Furthermore, he was still so young. He was so young it was incredulous.
If he did not even seem to belong to the same world as them, then who would have thought that he was the sect leader of Dafang Sect?
After finding out Mo Wen’s identity, Wang Qinghan grew incredibly anxious. She had just held a meeting to halt the business agreement with Dafang Sect. If Mo Wen found out about this, she would be screwed…
She wanted badly to call the office and order her people to stop the contract from being canceled. She not only wanted to continue working with Dafang Sect; she would also give them the greatest amount of profit. She would give Dafang Sect plenty of benefits. However, Mo Wen was in the car and she could not make the call. She could only secretly pray and hope that the voiding process would take a while longer and that there would be sufficient time for her to stop it from going through.
“What’s the matter?” Mo Wen could sense Wang Qinghan’s feelings and he could not help but ask her about it.
“Nothing Senior. I just want to… to go to the bathroom…” Wang Qinghan blushed. Her mind whirled, and she quickly found an excuse to avoid Mo Wen’s question.
Mo Wen paused and then smiled. “Go ahead, Miss Wang.” Wang Qinghan was a warrior in the Embryonic Breathing realm. How would something like an urgent need to visit the bathroom happen to her? However, Mo Wen did not expose her and pretended not to notice.
The car had already reached the suburbs. Wang Qinghan ordered Little Tang to stop by the road. Then, she got out of the car alone and ran to the nearby forest.
Little Tang’s expression was odd as she smiled awkwardly at Mo Wen. It was true that those involved in the situation were blind to what was happening. Even Little Tang could see that something like an urgent need for the bathroom would not happen to her mistress. Something must have happened.
Wang Qinghan returned to the car after a while. She seemed to have really settled a biological need and was much more relaxed.
No one said anything on the ride.
The Hengduan Mountain range was one of the primeval mountain ranges of Hua Xia. It was enormous, and there were many secrets and legends about it.
There were several sects in the mountain range. They were both big and small, and there were too many of them to be counted. Some sects preferred to carry out activities outside while some sects preferred not to leave the mountains. There were even some sects that remained hidden deep in the mountain ranges in seclusion.
Even warriors who had lived in the Hengduan Mountain ranges for many generations did not know how many secrets were hidden in it.
The Crimson Star Sect was found at the highest peak of the Hengduan Mountain range, at an altitude of at least 5000 to 6000 meters. It was high up in the clouds, making it seem like the people of the sect lived in the clouds.
That morning, three people arrived at the foot of the mountain where the Crimson Star Sect was located. They were a man and two women. They were Mo Wen, Wang Qinghan, and Little Tang.
“The Crimson Star Sect’s headquarters are above this peak. It has 300 years of history and is built between the peaks of several mountains.” Wang Qinghan pointed at the mountain peak that stretched into the clouds as she spoke to Mo Wen.
“Thank you, both of you. You can go now. As for Miss Qinghan’s illness, please come to look for me at Hua Xia University. Mo Wen had no intentions of getting Wang Qinghan, and the Zhongyu Sect that stood behind her, involved in this matter. His figure shimmered, and he disappeared. He went ahead alone.
“Why did Senior leave just like that? I wanted to go with him to the Crimson Star Sect to take a look,” Little Tang said sadly. She knew that Mo Wen was here to find trouble with the Crimson Star Sect and very much wanted to see what happened. What kind of scene would it be when Mo Wen causes trouble at the Crimson Star Sect, which ranked fourth amongst the Ten Great Sects? Just thinking about it filled her with anticipation.
“Even though Senior did not take us along, can’t we go there by ourselves?” Wang Qinghan said with a bright smile, her eyes glinted.
“We go up there by ourselves? What if the people from Crimson Star Sect catch us?”
Little Tang did not dare to barge into such a sect without Mo Wen’s protection. Furthermore, Mo Wen was prepared to make trouble. Who knew what would happen if they followed him up?
“What are you afraid of? Just say that the young sect leader of Zhongyu Sect is here to visit the Crimson Star Sect. Would the Crimson Star Sect dare to make things difficult for us?”
Wang Qinghan harrumphed coldly. Then, she dragged Little Tang and flew up towards the peak.
A flash of gold light cut through the clouds and appeared at the peak of the mountain. There was a large stone door above the mountain. It was very majestic and magnificent, and it looked much stately and beautiful than Dafang sect’s door. The Crimson Star Sect’s name was written on the door.
“Who is it?”
Someone had flown up to the peak of the mountain so suddenly without informing them beforehand. The disciples who were guarding the door all grew alert.
A young man of the Qi Nucleation Realm flew out and stopped in front of Mo Wen.
“I am Mo Wen, the sect leader of Dafang Sect. Isn’t the Crimson Star Sect looking for me?” Mo Wen said lightly and put his hands behind his back.
“Dafang Sect’s sect leader!” The young man’s pupils shrank. He was naturally aware of the martial arts circle notice. However, he had not expected Dafang Sect’s sect leader to come to the Crimson Star Sect to beg for forgiveness. He had thought that Dafang Sect would stubbornly refuse to do so.
“Hrmph, you are the Dafang Sect’s sect leader who has come here to beg for forgiveness from us. Did you not bring anything? You are really brave to come here just like that.” The leader of the guards fluffed up proudly. He thought that the Dafang Sect’s sect leader had surrendered and was here to beg for forgiveness. He had not brought anything with him but had dared to say that he was here to beg for forgiveness. Even the guard could not accept it.
“Bring something?” Mo Wen smiled lightly and extended his hand. A long rod suddenly flew up from the foot of the mountain. It rushed up through the clouds and appeared beside Mo Wen. Then, ten rods appeared.
The leader of the guards was shocked. How did Mo Wen get the rod? What kind of skill was this? He instantly sensed that something was wrong. Mo Wen did not at all look like someone who was here to beg for forgiveness.
Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh!
A rod flew out and tied up the ten or so disciples guarding the gate.
Ah!
The vine-like rod pierced through their skin and they started yelling in pain. The disciples were all wrapped up like dumplings and blood flowed down the rods. The middle-aged man who led the rest was completely wrapped up other than for his eyes. He had many wounds that bled uncontrollably. None of the guards could move at all. Their cultivations had been sealed, and they could not escape from their bindings.
“How dare you! What are you doing! The Crimson Star Sect will destroy you…destroy all of you…” The middle-aged man looked at Mo Wen in surprise and anger. He had never thought Mo Wen would dare to do this.
“Don’t you Crimson Star Sect like people to beg for forgiveness and punishment? I’ll have your entire sect punished today.”
Mo Wen flicked his finger lightly and a ray of black light flew from his fingertips. A black-golden puppet suddenly appeared in the air. It was the puppet Mo Wen had received in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. The puppet’s combat ability was like that of a martial arts grandmaster. Furthermore, it was a martial arts grandmaster that had spiritual energy as its foundation.
The black-golden puppet flew into the air. It started to shudder, and a rod that was several dozen meters long flew into its hand. It flung its hand down and bundled up the ten-odd people on the ground in the shape of a gourd. Then, it floated slowly over to Mo Wen and came to rest behind him.
Mo Wen strode into the Crimson Star Sect. He wanted to see how powerful the sect that dared to threaten to destroy his sect was.
Wang Qinghan and Little Tang had just flown onto the mountain peak when they saw the puppet suspended in the air behind Mo Wen. They could not help but breathe in deeply. At the same time, they both realized that something huge was about to happen to the Crimson Star Sect. It might even be destroyed in an instant.
