Supreme Demon God

Chapter 79: Crown Prince of the Yan Country

In the courtyard, the wind howled.

When Mo Xiu walked, there were afterimages.

This was a kind of body technique he was practicing, called "Everlasting Instant Shadow Step", because the speed was so fast between walking so that afterimages were produced.

For those who were new to Everlasting Instant Shadow Step, it would take at least half a year to get started without anyone's guidance.

But this body technique was originally the body technique used by Mo Xiu when he was the Everlasting Demon King in his previous life. Now, he had only used his new body to review it, so it took him less than an hour to cultivate to the first stage of the Everlasting Instant Shadow Step.

There were nine stages of this body technique. If one cultivated it to the peak stage, not to mention shrinking the ground, the user could even teleport between two places.

With Mo Xiu's current cultivation base, it was still impossible to break through the Everlasting Instant Shadow Step to the second stage, but the problem was not big. Only the first stage of the Everlasting Instant Shadow Step was enough for him.

With a thought, Mo Xiu stopped suddenly, and his afterimages disappeared instantly.

Soon, a figure hurried over.

"Young Master Wuji, Eldest Miss invites you to come over."

The person here was Su Qianqian's confidant maid, Luo Er. With Su Qianqian's attitude towards Mo Xiu, if there was something to discuss, she would usually come in person instead of asking Luo Er to come and invite him over.

There was only one possibility for this situation now. Su Qianqian needed his help, and she couldn't get out by herself, so she had to ask Luo Er to invite him.

Mo Xiu's Divine Consciousness spread throughout Su's mansion, and he knew everything about Su's mansion, so he naturally knew what Su Qianqian was looking for.

First of all, Yan Wuji's son, the current prince Yan Qi of the Yan Kingdom, came, and he wanted Su Qianqian to be his princess.

Secondly, Su Xuan, who had been missing for three days, came back and agreed to the marriage between Su Qianqian and Yan Qi.

In the end, Su Qianqian didn't want to become a princess, pretending to say that she belonged to him, and the person she liked was Lin Wuji, the elder of the Chamber of Commerce, that was, Mo Xiu.

The reason why Yan Qi wanted Su Qianqian as his princess was simple. He wanted to take the opportunity to control the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce. After all, the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce today was very powerful. In Yan Capital and even the entire Yan Kingdom, it had a considerable right to speak, and Su Qianqian herself was also the number one beauty in the Yan Kingdom, and she fitted Yan Qi's choice for the princess.

The reason why Su Xuan agreed to the marriage was also very simple. He wanted to tie up with Yan Qi to bring the entire Rainbow Chamber of Commerce to a higher level.

Of course, there were deeper reasons.

In the entire Su's mansion, it was estimated that only Mo Xiu knew the whereabouts of Su Xuan in these three days. He did not hide, let alone lost, but was taken away by some. The main culprit behind the scenes was Yan Qi.

After three full days of torture and poisoning, Su Xuan became soft and decided to betray his daughter and sell the entire Rainbow Chamber of Commerce. Therefore, he suddenly appeared at this gate, returned to Su's mansion, and agreed to the marriage of Yan Qi and Su Qianqian. 

The reason for Su Qianqian's refusal to become a princess was simpler. It wasn't that she really fell in love with Mo Xiu, but that she had no affection for Yan Qi, and she was unwilling to make such a boring sacrifice.

She let Luo Er come to invite Mo Xiu because she wanted to see if Mo Xiu could help.

Mo Xiu was not a kind person, even if Su Qianqian was the number one beauty in the Yan Kingdom, he would not necessarily help, but the nature of the matter involved Yan Qi, the son of Yan Wuji, so it was different.

He nodded, and said to Luo Er, "Lead the way."

Luo Er turned to lead the way for Mo Xiu, and said as he walked, "Young Master Wuji, can you help my Eldest Miss again this time?"

With that, she described Su Qianqian's situation in more detail for Mo Xiu.

Mo Xiu listened quietly, noncommittal.

After a while, Mo Xiu came to the lobby and saw a handsome young man with sword eyebrows, deep eyes, and noble attitude sitting on the main seat. He looked arrogant and proud as if he didn't put anyone in his eyes. Besides the current prince of Yan Qi, who else could this person be?

There were two entourages behind Yan Qi, both of whom were tall, but their temperament was deep and introverted, giving a feeling of average strength.

Being able to be sent to protect Yan Qi was certainly not of simple strength, so these two people could only deliberately hide their strength, either did not want to be known by others, or did not want to overshadow Yan Qi's limelight.

Su Xuan, the Patriarch of the Su Family, was standing in front of Yan Qi, desperately trying to please him, making it hard to tell that this was the previous Patriarch of the Su Family, Su Xuan.

Su Qianqian stayed far away, looking at her expression, she seemed a little disturbed.

Mo Xiu's arrival immediately attracted everyone's attention.

With that, Yan Qi said, "Are you Lin Wuji?"

"..."

Mo Xiu remained silent, saying nothing.

Yan Qi snorted coldly, "You are so courageous, you have killed King Jing and Duke Cao of the City Court one after another. Don't you know that you are killing at the feet of the emperor? Well, you can't see the king!"

"That is not a king," Mo Xiu shook his head slightly, "what kind of thing is Yan Wuji, that's nothing but an ant, is he worthy of being called a King too?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was stunned.

Yan Qi, Su Xuan, and others did not expect Mo Xiu to be so bold and even dared to say such rebellious words in front of everyone.

Su Qianqian was shocked and speechless at the same time, she couldn't help wondering whether it was right to ask Mo Xiu over.

Yan Qi was the first to react after brief stupefaction, and said, "I can assume that I didn't hear what you said just now. For the sins you committed a few days ago, I can also intercede with His Majesty for you so that His Majesty will be more forgiving. But the premise is that from now on, you must not think of Su Qianqian at all, what do you think?"

Mo Xiu: "I don't have any thought on Su Qianqian naturally."

Hearing this, Yan Qi couldn't help but be overjoyed, he smiled and said, "You kid is pretty interesting."

Su Qianqian's face changed, she looked at Mo Xiu and opened her mouth slightly, but she did not know what to say in the end.

Mo Xiu ignored the attitudes of the people, and continued, "I don't have any feeling for Su Qianqian at all, but she is not something you can get involved. You can go away, don't let me see you again, otherwise, your dog life will be unpredictable."

"You...!" Yan Qi once again realized what arrogance was.

This guy was more than a mere arrogant, he was simply bold, even he, the prince of the Yan Kingdom, was not so arrogant and liked to threaten people at every turn.

Yan Qi was not worried at all if the person in front of him was to be replaced by someone else, but he had heard about Mo Xiu's reputation in the past few days, knowing that Mo Xiu was a complete lunatic, no matter who, no matter what the rules, he would kill in the instant he was dissatisfied with the other party.

Such people were the most terrifying, and they were most likely to do what they say.

The identity of the prince of the Yan Kingdom was of no use to Mo Xiu. Even if Yan Wuji was used to suppress Mo Xiu, it could be guessed that Mo Xiu would not take it to heart. It would really be dangerous to continue to stay.

However, he was still a little unwilling. He looked at Su Xuan and said coldly, "Patriarch Su, is this the attitude of the elders of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce?"

Su Xu frowned, looked at Mo Xiu, and said in a somewhat unkind tone, "Elder Wuji, although you were invited by my little girl to join the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce, you are still the elder of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce, but my little girl's marriage is still not something an outsider like you to intervene, right? Or, you already regard yourself as the master of Su's mansion?"

"I will intervene if I want to intervene, what will you do?" Mo Xiu was full of disdain.

Su Xuan frowned, and said solemnly, "As a guest of the Su Family, you do whatever you want unscrupulously. You don't put my Su Family Patriarch in your eyes at all. As the Su Family Patriarch, I have the right to drive you out of the Su Family..."

"I object!" Su Qianqian hurriedly spoke in support of Mo Xiu.

Su Xuan glanced at Su Qianqian and snorted coldly, "What's the use of your objection? This family is not in your turn to call the shots!"

"What about grandfather? Is it true that grandfather's words don't work too?" Su Qianqian said coldly.

Su Xuan was taken aback for a moment, and quickly laughed, "Do you think he will oppose it? That's fine, I'll ask him to come and see if he supports me or you."

With that said, he ordered someone to go and invite.

Su Yunyang, the former head of the Su Family, was the grandfather that Su Qianqian said.

The reason why the Su Family had become the dominant family of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce was ultimately Su Yunyang's credit.

However, after Su Yunyang stepped down as the head of the Patriarch, he seldom had anything to do with the world. Although he retained his identity as the senator of the Elder Council, he hadn't attended the Elder Council for a long time, so the one in charge of the Su Family's affair now was Su Xuan.

Su Xuan didn't collude with Su Yunyang beforehand, but he didn't think the problem was big, because Mo Xiu was a speck of dust in his eyes, which had hindered the interests of the Su Family.

As long as Su Yunyang was not stupid, he would definitely support him. After all, he was the current Su Family Patriarch, and their Su Family could abandon Mo Xiu, but they absolutely could not offend Yan Qi.

In his opinion, Mo Xiu's value was far inferior to Yan Qi, which was one of the reasons why he chose to be soft after being tortured.

After a while, Su Yunyang came to the lobby.

"I've heard about that incident; you did a good job. You are the true Su Family Patriarch."

Su Yunyang first praised Su Xuan when he came, then looked at Su Qianqian, shook his head and sighed.

"Grandfather, you can't..."

As Su Qianqian was about to say something, she saw Su Yunyang raise his hand and stop her from saying anything, "No need to say anything, public is public, private is private, now, there are only public affairs, no private affairs."

"..."

Su Qianqian narrowed her mouth, only to feel aggrieved.

Su Yunyang asked again, "Where is Lin Wuji?" As he said, he looked around in the lobby.

He just came in, he didn't pay attention at all, even now he had only heard of Lin Wuji as a person, he had never seen Lin Wuji, at least he thought so.

Only then did he take the initiative to look for the so-called Lin Wuji.

Soon, his eyes fell on Mo Xiu.

After seeing Mo Xiu's face clearly, Su Yunyang was stunned, "It's... it's you!"

Mo Xiu also looked at Su Yunyang. It stood to reason that this was the first time he and Su Yunyang met, but it was not.

This was the second time they saw each other face-to-face, and the first time was in the refining workshop in Su's mansion.
