Chapter 94: For Battle
Chapter 94: For Battle
Five Carapace District had been cut off by the defensive array arranged by Mo Xiu. No can could enter or leave without Mo Xiu's permission. Therefore, even if the external news spread, the people of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce in Five Carapace District would not know the identity of Mo Xiu.
Mo Xiu's Divine Consciousness had been covering most of Yan Capital, hence, he naturally knew the news about his identity.
At first, it was the people of Alchemy League who deliberately leaked it out, and then it became the word of mouth in Yan Capital.
After all, it was a piece of explosive news that could easily spread, so there was nothing incomprehensible, but Alchemy League could be said to have played the most important role.
And as long as he was forced into desperation by Yan Wuji and Seraphic Sword Sect, the people of the Alchemy League would probably stand up and save his life from Yan Wuji's hands under the pressure of the Seraphic Sword Sect, this controlling him in their palm.
This was probably a sly plot, provided that Yan Wuji and Seraphic Sword Sect could really push Mo Xiu into a dead-end.
Mo Xiu did not take what the Alchemy League did to heart. The so-called arrogance was a joke in his opinion.
Even if his identity was known to the people in Yan Capital, he still did not care much because he had already reached the point where he did not need to go incognito.
It was not uncommon for him to care a little bit.
One was the relationship between Su Qianqian and Yan Ran. It was not known when they became so talkative, so much information about him was accidentally leaked out by Yan Ran.
The other was that his Divine Consciousness detected that the suspected Yan Wuji had returned to Yan Capital from outside and entered the palace.
It was just that he came back from another place, and it could not be absolutely proved that the man was Yan Wuji, but since he entered the palace, there was nothing wrong with it. It was a pity that when he was in the Five Carapace District, he could not detect the situation inside the palace.
Yan Wuji was no in Yan Capital before, so even if he killed many people related to Yan Wuji, Yan Wuji remained indifferent, but now that Yan Wuji was back, knowing that Lin Wuji was Mo Xiu, it could be guessed that he would retaliate by means of thunder and storm.
It turned out that Mo Xiu's guess was correct.
The next day, a voice rang, resounding throughout the Five Carapace District, "What is Mo Xiu?"
This was Yan Wuji's voice, many people in the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce could recognize it, so they left the mansion one after another and walked towards the edge of the big array.
Mo Xiu was not in a hurry but waited for Yan Ran in the courtyard.
When Yan Ran walked out of the room Su Qianqian also came to the courtyard from other places.
"Yan Wuji is here, just outside the big array, but the person he was looking for seemed to be Mo Xiu," Su Qianqian said, looking at Mo Xiu.
"I am Mo Xiu."
As Mo Xiu stopped using the Thousand Faces Technique, his original face caught Su Qianqian's eyes.
Su Qianqian was stunned, turned her head to look at Yan Ran, and found that Yan Ran's face had also changed.
"You you are the former princess Yan Ran!"
After only one glance, Su Qianqian recognized Yan Ran's identity and was a little surprised.
Yan Ran smiled slightly and said apologetically, "I'm really sorry for hiding it from you, we really could not tell you before."
Su Qianqian's gaze shifted over Yan Ran and Mo Xiu. Many of the doubts before her disappeared suddenly, and it was truly a sudden realization.
"Let's go, go see what Yan Wuji wants to do," Mo Xiu said to Yan Ran and Su Qianqian, leaving Su Mansion with them, and walked towards the edge of the big array.
Not long after, the three of them had already joined the others in the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce on the edge of the big array.
"Qianqian, who are these two?"
The sudden appearance of two unfamiliar faces made everyone in the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce very puzzled.
However, someone soon recognized Yan Ran's identity and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Former princess Yan Ran! How could she be here?"
"They are Elder Wuji and Girl Yi Er. Elder Wuji has another identity, which is Mo Xiu as Yan Wuji said. Girl Yi Er's true identity is former princess Yan Ran," Su Qianqian said with a wry smile, "I just found out just now."
Everyone took a deep breath.
No wonder Mo Xiu was never afraid of offending Yan Wuji. He also killed prince Yan Qi without care of offending Yan Wuji. He said he came to Yan Capital to kill someone, and that someone was actually Yan Wuji.
Their poor Rainbow Chamber of Commerce had been kept in the dark, they were caught in the whirlpool without knowing anything, and they were unable to get out too.
"Everyone, we concealed our identity and joined the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce, and we arbitrarily involved the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce in our grievances with Yan Wuji. I am really sorry about this. When we resolve Yan Wuji, we will definitely find a way to compensate you," Yan Ran said to everyone apologetically.
Mo Xiu didn't intend to apologize to everyone but looked at Yan Wuji outside the big array.
It was the first time that Mo Xiu met Yan Wuji face-to-face.
Compared with the last time he saw it, Yan Wuji now looked a bit more ordinary. Although he was wearing an imperial robe and an imperial crown, he no longer had the aura of a king over the world. The aura on his body was restrained and gave people the feeling of not so powerful.
However, Mo Xiu had already seen through Yan Wuji's cultivation base, only the Great Perfection-stage of Spirit Vessel Realm, but this guy's soul was even more powerful than Chen Xiaoyang whose cultivation base was in Profound Spirit Realm. His Spiritual Platform was also extremely stable, even with the Soul Devouring Knife, it could not be easily broken.
More than that, Mo Xiu found that Yan Wuji had three acupuncture points on his body that were different from those of ordinary Spirit Vessel Realm cultivators. If he guessed right, those three special acupuncture points should make Yan Wuji better than those of the same cultivation level.
In addition, Yan Wuji should already know that he (Mo Xiu) could easily kill the Great Perfection-stage Spirit Vessel Realm cultivators, therefore, he had confidence in his own strength, he would not come to die for no reason.
In other words, although his cultivation base was only in the realm of Great Perfection-stage of Spirit Vessel Realm, Yan Wuji's combat power was probably equivalent to the warriors in the Early-stage of Profound Spirit Realm, and might even be much stronger than Chen Xiaoyang who was a Profound Spirit Realm cultivator.
"Mo Xiu, it really is you!"
While Mo Xiu was looking at Yan Wuji, Yan Wuji was also looking at Mo Xiu.
He said coldly, then looked at Yan Ran, and said with a sneer, "Yan Ran, you dare to come back, very good. There is a way to heaven, but you don't go, you chose hell instead."
Mo Xiu was expressionless, "It doesn't make any sense to say these nonsenses, let's get to the point, why are you looking for me?"
"Three days later, in the Butchering Peak Hunting Grounds in the northern suburbs, you will fight me to death," Yan Wuji said in a tone that could not be rejected.
Mo Xiu was stunned but did not immediately agree.
"You don't dare to come?" Yan Wuji said aggressively, "You dare to kill even the people of the Seraphic Sword Sect, it stands to reason that you are not a cowardly rat."
"..."
Mo Xiu remained silent.
On the contrary, Yan Ran snorted, "Yan Wuji, you are just a despicable and shameless person, do you think we will easily fall into your tricks? Anyone can guess that you are going to set up a trap in the Butchering Peak Hunting Grounds, do you think we will walk into hell's gate so voluntarily?"
"Set a trap?" Yan Wuji laughed, "It's really laughable! You are just a bunch of clowns. To deal with you, I don't need to set a trap."
"It sounds impressive, but who knows, since you are a dog that licks back what it already spat out," Yan Ran curled her lips.
With this, Yan Wuji should be angry, but he actually no longer paid attention to Yan Ran, and instead, looked at Mo Xiu, "What do you think?"
"What if I don't want it?" Mo Xiu asked.
"Unwilling, it can only mean that I misunderstood you, but since I have spoken, how can you refuse?"
Yan Wuji snorted coldly, clapped his hands again, and soon saw twenty or thirty people being taken over.
After seeing the appearance of the twenty or thirty people, Su Qianqian was shocked and couldn't help exclaiming, "It's from the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce!"
Before, the Elder Council ordered the people of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce to go back to the Five Carapace District to hide, but not everyone could rush back in time, some people could only find a place to hide.
Normally, it was not easy to be caught by just finding a place to hide.
However, Yan Wuji was the Emperor of the Kingdom of Yan. He had countless masters and controlled an army of millions. Even if the other party hid three feet deep in the ground, he could still find them.
Just listening to Yan Wuji's order, a bright sword was placed on the necks of the twenty or thirty people of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce.
These members of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce had a look of despair on their faces, but they didn't ask for help from Mo Xiu or the elders of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce. They just gritted their teeth and prayed secretly in their hearts, hoping for a miracle.
Yan Wuji didn't kill people right away, just a posture of wanting to kill, and said, "These are people from the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce who will die soon. I have also sent people to arrest all the people of the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce all over the country."
"You... you are shameless!" Su Qianqian couldn't help it anymore, no longer caring about Yan Wuji's identity, and angrily accused, "You are the emperor of a country, but you actually use such despicable means!"
"Despicable?"
Yan Wuji didn't care, shook his head, and continued, "I also sent people to Azure Prefecture and Sun Martial City. Before, the people I sent were not able to successfully destroy the Mo Family, probably because you used a strange method. But now that you have come to Yan Capital, the Mo Family in Sun Martial City is not that troublesome anymore. Maybe they will soon destroy Mo Family and capture Mo Ruyi alive."
Mo Xiu listened quietly until Yan Wuji finished saying, "Anything else?"
Yan Wuji stunned for a moment, frowned, and said, "I don't know if you care about your father's corpse. Although it has been a long time since he died, the corpse has not rotted and is still in my hands. If you refuse to fight with me, then I don't mind letting people do something to humiliate his body."
