Zhou Wen packed his things and placed the Immortal Culling Sword back into the Chaos Bead. He checked and realized that all the important things were there. He hadn't lost anything. Even the Mourning Rod was there.
The only thing missing was the Bamboo Blade, which was now in Ji Moqing's hand.
Ji Moqing was climbing up the mountain with all her might as the people below chased after her. Ji Moqing looked like she was only at the Mortal stage, so her speed was far inferior to theirs. Soon, she was about to be caught up.
One of them released an eagle-type Companion Beast to grab Ji Moqing from the sky, but just as the eagle-type Companion Beast flew into the air, it saw a bolt of lightning appear out of thin air, instantly electrocuting the eagle into charcoal.
This gave everyone a fright, but they quickly realized the problem. They didn't dare summon any more flying-type Companion Beasts. All they did was climb up the mountain wall to chase after Ji Moqing.
As such, they didn't see any more lightning appear. Soon, they caught up to Ji Moqing. The man at the top reached out to grab Ji Moqing's foot.
Ji Moqing grabbed the crack in the mountain wall with one hand and slashed at the person's hand with the Bamboo Blade in the other.
Unfortunately, she was too weak and slow. The man casually grabbed the Bamboo Blade's blade and pulled Ji Moqing down, clamping her under his armpit.
"Let me go. Do you know what you're doing? You will regret what you've done, "Ji Moqing said as she struggled.
However, she was just too weak. As for the man, he was an Epic expert. He didn't care about her punches and kicks. Ji Moqing couldn't injure him at all.
"Miss Ji, of course I know what I'm doing. Furthermore, I definitely won't regret it." The man continued with a smile, "If you think that person in your family can save you, you're gravely mistaken. Ignoring the fact that he doesn't know you're here, even if he does, he won't be able to save you. On land, he can be said to be invincible, but at sea, even if he's a god that has descended to the mortal world, he will drown. "
"Who said I'm counting on Brother-in-law to save me? I'm not talking about him, "Ji Moqing said.
"If you don't count on him, who else can you count on? Count on your father? Then you can't count on him. He's now in the South District and hasn't returned yet. He might not even know that you've gone missing, "the man said again.
"Who said I need to rely on my father?" Ji Moqing curled her lips.
"Oh, who else can you rely on?" the man asked with a smile.
He naturally knew very well that Ji Moqing couldn't be relied on anymore. The sea wasn't the Federation's domain. Even if the six families came, they wouldn't dare act arrogantly at sea.
"I'll rely on it," Ji Moqing said as she pointed at the Bamboo Blade in the man's hand.
"Rely on it? Are you saying that this knife will kill me? Or do you want me to return it to you, and then stretch out my neck to let you kill me? "The man's words caused several people to burst into laughter.
However, Ji Moqing didn't laugh. She said seriously, "Don't you find it strange? Why do I have this knife? "
"What's so strange about that … That's not right … This is an Essence Gold saber, not a Companion Beast weapon. You didn't bring a weapon with you previously. There's nowhere to find a weapon in the vast sea. Could it be that this saber is from Mount Fangzhang?" The man immediately thought of something amiss as he looked at the Bamboo Blade in his hand with a strange glint.
"Wu Zonglie, you are a reputable figure in the overseas alliance after all. What Martial Demon? From the looks of it, you were just blowing your own trumpet. I never expected you to be so stupid. I think you shouldn't be called Martial Demon. You might as well be called Martial Daze or Martial Fool …" Ji Moqing said.
Wu Zonglie said coldly, "Don't think that we won't dare do anything to you just because we want to use you to threaten your brother-in-law. Believe it or not, I'll chop off one of your hands if you continue spouting nonsense. After all, losing a hand doesn't affect anything."
However, Ji Moqing wasn't afraid at all. She even said plausibly, "Isn't that right? When have you ever seen an Essence Gold weapon in a dimensional zone? Or do you think a place like Mount Fangzhang will have dimensional creatures forge an Essence Gold saber? "
"You're right." Wu Zonglie frowned slightly when he heard that. He looked at Ji Moqing and said, "Where did you get this Essence Gold saber?"
"Someone naturally gave it to me," Ji Moqing said.
"Who?" Wu Zonglie and company sized up their surroundings. Ji Moqing was right. Since there was an Essence Gold saber here, it meant that someone had come here.
"I'm afraid I'll scare you if I tell you. It's best you return the saber to me obediently. Then, respectfully kowtow to me a few times and beg for my forgiveness. When the owner of the saber comes, I can put in a good word for you so that he can spare your lives," Ji Moqing said seriously.
"It's not that I, Wu Zonglie, am bragging, but there's no one in this world who deserves me, Wu Zonglie, to kneel and beg for mercy. Furthermore, even if there's really someone here, they will be from my overseas alliance. Why would they save you?" Wu Zonglie scoffed.
"What if this person isn't from the overseas alliance?" Ji Moqing asked.
"If it wasn't for the fact that those fellows from the Federation dared to come to the sea, I'll let them know the elegance of experts at sea," Wu Zonglie said.
"You mean you want to compete with Lord Human Emperor?" Ji Moqing sneered.
"Human Emperor?" Wu Zonglie and company were alarmed.
"That's right. It's Lord Human Emperor. When he passed by, he saw that I had an exquisite physique, that I was smart, kind, and adorable. I had extremely high talent, so he took me in as his disciple. He even gave me the saber he carried with him to protect myself." Ji Moqing spoke nonsense without batting an eyelid, as though it was true.
"Do you think I'll believe you? If it's really as you said, why wouldn't Human Emperor come to save you? Why would he make you spend so much effort to fabricate so many lies? "Wu Zonglie said disdainfully.
The last time Ji Moqing was able to escape was because she was too eloquent. She had actually deceived them, giving her an opportunity to take advantage of.
This time, Wu Zonglie naturally wouldn't believe her no matter what. Furthermore, ever since the ranking battle five years ago, Human Emperor hadn't appeared again. In this vast sea, the chances of Ji Moqing encountering Human Emperor were even smaller than winning the lottery. How could there be such a coincidence?
"There's something you don't know. Although my master is a hero, he's old after all. There are some things he can't do …" Ji Moqing said with a blink.
Wu Zonglie and company's expressions turned odd. Wu Zonglie sneered and said, "Did Human Emperor tell you this?"
"Of course not. Men want face. How can he tell me this? However, I heard from Master that there's something wrong with his relationship with Master's wife. That's why he came here to search for the Elixir of Immortality. That's just my guess … "Ji Moqing said.
