"Stop right there." Mo Wuji stopped her at a street at the edge of the Five Elements Desolate City Plaza.
Seeing the other party stop and stare at him, Mo Wuji laughed coldly, "Jing Feilan, you can remove the veil on your face. Today, I will settle the score with you."
"It's you?" Jing Feilan clearly recognised Mo Wuji. A flash of surprise flashed across her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. Even though anyone could come to the Five Elements Desolate Domain, Mo Wuji, as a mortal, did have some ability to get here.
"Yan 'Er is already dead. You wouldn't understand even if I told you. Now, move aside." Jing Feilan only said one sentence before raising her hand to release a gust of wind.
Mo Wuji did not even move. With a wave of his hand, the gust of wind disappeared without a trace.
"Eh?" Jing Feilan exclaimed in surprise. She immediately knew that Mo Wuji was not only a cultivator, but also an extremely strong cultivator.
She released another wave of elemental energy for the second time. This time, she did not hold back.
A terrifying spatial elemental energy surged over. Mo Wuji's heart skipped a beat. Just based on Jing Feilan's second wave of elemental energy, he was sure that Jing Feilan was at least in the advanced True Lake Stage.
"Boom!" Mo Wuji did not even move, but Jing Feilan's elemental energy was sent flying. The strong force swept back, sending Jing Feilan flying into a nearby stone wall.
"Pff!" Jing Feilan spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.
Jing Feilan slowly crawled up in shock. She stared at Xing Huang, who was standing beside Mo Wuji. After some time, she said with a trembling voice, "You're Heaven Seeking Palace's Smith Summit's Three Eyed Dhuta. Why did you attack a mere rogue cultivator like me?"
Jing Feilan could not tell the Three Eyed Dhuta's cultivation level, but she was sure that he was at least in the Great Circle of the Nihility God Stage.
"I am no longer Heaven Seeking Palace's Smith Summit's Three Eyed Dhuta. I am Tian Ji Sect's Left Defender. No matter who you are, you have to be courteous to my Tian Ji Sect's sect head, "Xing Huang grunted and said coldly.
Jing Feilan's heart pounded furiously. Only then did her gaze land on Mo Wuji, "You, how did you …"
She didn't even dare to ask. Mo Wuji was just an ordinary mortal without spiritual roots. How could he become the Tian Ji Sect's sect head? That's not right. Just now, Mo Wuji easily caught her first attack. How could a mortal do that?
Killing intent flashed across Mo Wuji's body, and he said coldly, "You're not the one asking me now. Count yourself lucky. Today, I only want to kill you, and not torture you. As for Supreme Sword City, I will settle the score with them. "
Mo Wuji opened his palm and a lightning ball was about to come crashing down.
"Wait …" Jing Feilan suddenly reached out to remove the veil on her face. Mo Wuji looked at Jing Feilan in shock. How was this a person?
One of Jing Feilan's eyes had been gouged out, and a small part of her nose had also been cut off. There were several terrifying crisscrossing scars on her face, which would make anyone who saw it feel incomparably horrified.
"That's right, I was the one who brought Yan 'Er away. I didn't mistreat her, and I even prepared to make her my last disciple, my successor. However, I was blind and didn't know about the actions of the beasts in Supreme Sword City. The Supreme Sword City actually searched for all sorts of supreme grade spiritual roots within the Five Great Empires, and then sent them to the Supreme Sword City for the direct descendants of the Dong Clan to transfer their spiritual roots. I wonder how many geniuses have died in this process. "
After saying so much in one breath, Jing Feilan's tone calmed down a little. She took a deep breath and continued, "After I brought Yan 'Er to the Supreme Sword City, she was discovered by the Dong Clan's beasts. They asked me for Yan' Er, and naturally, I didn't allow it. I didn't expect that they would forcefully take Yan 'Er away. When I went to reason with them, I found out about their beasts' actions. I was locked up by the Dong Clan, and was tortured in every possible way … "
Mo Wuji frowned, "Jing Feilan, since you didn't know about the actions of the Dong Clan in the Supreme Sword City, how could the Dong Clan not kill you after you found out about it? Are you lying to yourself? "
Jing Feilan clenched her fists tightly, and said in a hoarse voice, "Because I know a huge secret, and the Dong Clan wanted me to reveal this secret. That was why I wasn't killed by them immediately, and found an opportunity to escape during the alien war. It was only now that I understand why the Supreme Sword City wanted me to be one of the three deputy castellans. "
With that, Jing Feilan looked at Mo Wuji calmly, "I don't blame you for killing me, because I do look down on mortals. Back then, you were a mortal, and I also thought that you would affect Yan 'Er's cultivation. Maybe I was wrong, and you actually became a sect head. But if you use Yan 'Er's death as an excuse to kill me, I won't be satisfied. I'm not afraid of death, but I want revenge. After I kill the beasts of the Supreme Sword City, and take my revenge, you can kill me, Jing Feilan, for any reason, and I will have no complaints. Also, Yan 'Er's spiritual roots were stolen by the Supreme Sword City's young castellan, Dong Lun … "
"Dong Lun was killed by me." Mo Wuji said expressionlessly, and the killing intent he had towards Jing Feilan had already faded.
Perhaps it was mainly because Yan 'Er was fine, and Jing Feilan wasn't collecting peak grade spiritual roots cultivators for the Supreme Sword City, but was also a victim.
There was a flash of surprise in Jing Feilan's eyes, and she immediately came to a realisation, "So Dong Lun was killed by you."
After Dong Lun was killed, the Supreme Sword City went crazy, and searched everywhere for the murderer. Jing Feilan, who was hiding in the dark, naturally knew about it.
"Leave, one of your eyes has been dug out, so I hope that when you look at people with your other eye, you won't be blind. Back then, if you had told me nicely, I might have let Yan 'Er be your disciple. That's not how you should behave. Don't always think that you're high and mighty, because when you think like that, in the eyes of others, you're just an ant. "Mo Wuji waved his hand, and he really didn't have the mood to kill such a woman.
"Sect Head Mo, you want to kill the Supreme Sword City's Dong Clan to take revenge for Yan 'Er, and I also want to take revenge for Yan' Er. At the same time, I want to take revenge for myself and my other disciples. So, please allow me to join Tian Ji Sect. As long as I kill the Dong Clan, you can do whatever you want to me. " Unexpectedly, Jing Feilan didn't leave immediately, but requested to join Tian Ji Sect.
After all these years, Jing Feilan was all too clear that if she wanted to rely on her own strength to take revenge, the chances would be too slim. If she wanted to borrow the help of other sects or clans to take revenge for her, it would also be a fool's dream. No sect would go head to head with the Supreme Sword City for a random person like her.
Mo Wuji asked curiously, "The rest of your disciples?"
Jing Feilan said harshly, "That's right, after I found out about the despicable actions of the Supreme Sword City's Dong Clan, they not only locked me up, they even used the spiritual roots of my other disciples to experiment on spiritual transfer. My other disciples only have high grade spiritual roots, and these bastards … "
As Jing Feilan spoke, her palms were already bleeding.
This Supreme Sword City's Dong Clan was indeed inhumane, and the killing intent in Mo Wuji's eyes deepened, "Since that's the case, then follow me to the Hundred Sect Alliance Conference. Of course, that's on the condition that you dare to go. "
Jing Feilan laughed miserably, "What do I not dare to do now?"
…
On the round altar in the middle of the Five Elements Desolate City Plaza, Zhuang Yan remembered Mo Wuji's words to find an eye-catching seat. This conference concerned the future development of the Tian Ji Sect, so she could not sit in a corner.
The seats on the round altar were arranged in a circle, and in the middle were the seats of the Heaven Seeking Palace, Great Evolution Sect and five to six other peak grade sects. The person-in-charge of the Hundred Sect Alliance was also sitting in the middle.
No matter how ignorant Zhuang Yan was, she knew that she could not sit in these seats. Even though the Tian Ji Sect had a Left Defender, it was still a Xuan sect.
Besides these seats, the best seat would be the first row in the middle. At this moment, the first row was almost full, so Zhuang Yan hurried to the few remaining sects' seats, and took one. Each of these squares had four seats, two at the front and two at the back, which represented the location of a sect. Just as Zhuang Yan sat down, the remaining first row's squares were taken by other sects.
"Move, sit at the back. You really don't know the rules. Do you see the sects below the Quasi-Heaven grade sitting in this row? "A cold voice sounded beside Zhuang Yan.
Zhuang Yan lifted her head and saw a rather tall man with malicious eyes.
"Is there a rule that states that the first row must be Quasi-Heaven grade sects?" Even though Zhuang Yan was slightly apprehensive, she did not stand up to move aside.
After spending so much time with Mo Wuji, her character had become much more firm and resolute. If this was before she joined the Tian Ji Sect, she would have stood up and moved aside. Or rather, she would not even be sitting in the first row.
"What, do you want me to do it?" This malicious-eyed man's killing intent intensified. He had just asked around and found out that only Zhuang Yan was from the Xuan sect Tian Ji Sect in the first row.
"What's going on?" A cultivator in charge hurried over.
The malicious man immediately clasped his fists and said, "I'm a disciple of the Heaven Seeking Palace, Dong Mingzi. This time, I'm representing the Supreme Sword City to attend the Hundred Sect Alliance Conference. This person is merely a representative of a Xuan sect, but he's actually sitting here. "
Dong Mingzi was delayed because he saw Jing Feilan's back initially, but couldn't find Jing Feilan even after chasing after her.
When the cultivator in charge heard that Dong Mingzi was from the Supreme Sword City, and was even a disciple of the Heaven Seeking Palace, he said to Zhuang Yan with some difficulty, "Hall Lord Zhuang, I'm the deacon of this Hundred Sect Alliance Conference. Can I trouble you to step back and take a seat?"
Zhuang Yan turned around to take a look, and the seats at the back were basically all filled. If she were to step back, she would probably have to sit at the back, and this was far from what her head senior brother had instructed. It wasn't easy for her head senior brother to give her a task, so she definitely couldn't fail.
"Clasping my fists, this Lord Deacon, seats are always first come, first served. Since my Tian Ji Sect came first, there's no reason for us to give up," Zhuang Yan said in a tone that was neither haughty nor humble.
The conference originally had a sound transmission array, and now that they saw a Xuan sect's hall lord fighting for a seat with a Quasi-Heaven sect, Supreme Sword City, on the round altar, everyone's eyes were instantly focused on them.
"If you don't move aside, don't blame me for making a move." Dong Mingzi saw that Zhuang Yan didn't give him any face, and his tone carried a hint of killing intent. If this wasn't the conference, he would have already made his move.
"Dong Clan scum, if you have the guts, then try and move." A similar voice filled with killing intent came from behind Dong Mingzi.
