The man looked very young and handsome. His eyebrows were like swords, and he was wearing a dark blue robe. His face was fair and he had no beard. His eyes were bright, and he looked very elegant. He looked at Chu Mo and said calmly, "You could have avoided all of this. You could have stayed away from this mess."
"Mess?" Chu Mo looked at the Lord of the Sky Rapier Sect and smiled. "You said I was in trouble?"
The Lord of the Sky Rapier Sect nodded calmly. He looked at Chu Mo and said, "Don't be fooled by the fact that the Ethereal Palace and the Royal Academy were established by you, and that you have the title of Palace Master. In fact … all of this is useless."
"Oh?" Chu Mo raised his eyebrows and looked at the Lord of the Sky Rapier Sect. "Then what is useful? Strength? "
The Lord of the Sky Rapier Sect nodded. "You are very smart. Smart people usually live longer. But unfortunately …"
"Unfortunately, I killed your elder, right?" Chu Mo looked at the Lord of the Sky Rapier Sect.
"Yes. Otherwise, I would have wanted to take you into the Sky Rapier Sect." The Lord of the Sky Rapier Sect looked at Elder Lu's body on the ground and sighed. Coldness flashed in his eyes. "But you killed him. So, you must die today."
Chu Mo looked at the Lord of the Sky Rapier Sect and said calmly, "In the end, it still comes down to strength! Elder Lu thought that he was powerful enough to defeat me, so he attacked me unscrupulously and tried to kill me. However, I chopped off his head. Now, you and the people around you also think that you can defeat me easily. That's why you are so calm and talk to me like a superior. Although you seem to be calm, you are actually condescending. Am I right? "
The Lord of the Sky Rapier Sect smiled and didn't say anything. But an old man next to him sneered. "So what? If you know what's good for you, hand over that kid and the inheritance of the Ethereal Palace, and I will give you a quick death. Otherwise, you … and everyone around you will all die! "
"You're threatening me with my family?" Chu Mo's eyes were filled with coldness.
Coldly, the old man said, "If you can do it, why can't others?"
Wu Yiju looked at Chu Mo with hatred. Although she didn't say anything, everyone could feel the joy in her hatred.
As if to say: Retribution!
Chu Mo sighed softly. "I didn't touch that child at all. What I hate the most is using other people's families to carry out various kinds of threats. I think this is the most immoral behavior."
The old man said angrily, "You're about to die, yet you still dare to lie!"
Chu Mo glanced at the old man. "Who do you think you are? Why would I lie to you? "
Wu Yiju stood there in a daze. She blankly stared at Chu Mo, the corners of her mouth twitching. Then … she looked at the Heavenly Sword Sect Master with a pleading gaze.
The Heavenly Sword Sect Master hesitated for a moment before saying to someone beside him, "Go fetch Little Xu."
That person nodded and turned to leave.
"If you really didn't do it, then … I can make the decision to let your family go." The Heavenly Sword Sect Master looked at Chu Mo with a trace of respect in his eyes.
Knowing that he could make use of the situation, but he didn't. This showed that this young man had a bottom line and a conscience.
What the Lord of the Sky Rapier Sect wanted was the inheritance of the Misty Palace. Once the inheritance of the Misty Palace was in his hands, the Sky Rapier Sect would surpass the Longevity Heaven and become the most powerful sect in the Azure Dragon Mainland.
At this moment, the Heavenly Sword Sect Master still didn't know that the Longevity Heaven had undergone a sudden change, and that a few powerful old masters had already fallen. If they knew, even if Chu Mo's master had already ascended, they would definitely re-evaluate Chu Mo's strength.
"What about them?" Chu Mo glanced at Xiao Yiyue and the others.
It just so happened that Xiao Yiyue and the others were also looking at him. Their eyes were full of worry.
However, Xiao Yiyue and the other seven women all moved slowly and stood beside Chu Mo. Although they didn't say anything, their attitude … was very clear.
Even the three women who were a little shaken before now stood on Chu Mo's side without hesitation.
Although they hadn't criticized Meng Yilan and Wu Yiju, they were all completely heartbroken in the depths of their hearts.
Not saying anything didn't mean that they didn't hate or resent Wu Yiju. They had already given up on Wu Yiju and Meng Yilan's actions!
Although there was a difference in seniority between the disciples of the same sect, from the day they entered the sect, they were like real sisters who interacted with each other day and night. The same fate and the same experience made the relationship between them even closer than real sisters!
Therefore, they couldn't tolerate betrayal the most.
No matter how extravagant it was, no matter how many reasons there were, betrayal was betrayal.
Meng Yilan's face was pale as she watched all her sisters stand beside Chu Mo. She gritted her teeth and two drops of tears fell from her eyes.
Wu Yiju's expression wasn't good either. Her face was a little pale, but at this moment, she was more worried about her child!
Those who had never been a mother would never understand that kind of feeling.
For the sake of her child, she could even disregard everything!
The Sky Rapier Sect Master glanced at Xiao Yiyue and the others and said calmly, "If you hand over the inheritance of the Ethereal Palace, I can let these women go."
As long as they obtained the inheritance, the disciples of the Ethereal Palace would lose their value. However, if it was someone else, they wouldn't let them go either, because they also had the inheritance of the Ethereal Palace. Although it wasn't complete, it still had an impact.
"It sounds like … you are a very generous person." Chu Mo smiled at the Sky Rapier Sect Master and said, "What if … I don't hand it over?"
"Then they will have to leave with me." The Sky Rapier Sect Master lowered his eyes and said calmly, "Although there are two parts of the inheritance, I think it's enough. However, you will definitely die here today. It doesn't matter if you hand it over or not. "
"If I hand it over, I will die. If I don't hand it over … I will also die." A mocking smile appeared on Chu Mo's face. "You can take them away and won't kill them … Then why should I hand it over to you?"
The Sky Rapier Sect Master thought for a moment. "There are many ways to die. One is to die without pain, and the other is to die in humiliation. Furthermore, after you die, your family will live a good life. The Sky Rapier Sect will always protect them. "
"Hahaha, in the end, you still couldn't control yourself and used your family to threaten me, right?" Chu Mo looked at the Sky Rapier Sect Master mockingly.
The old man beside the Sky Rapier Sect Master sneered. "You still don't understand? You have no right to negotiate with us!"
At this moment, a faint air-piercing sound came from outside. Then, a figure entered through the opened door, carrying a little boy in her arms.
"Mommy!" The little boy saw Wu Yiju as soon as he entered and shouted.
"My good boy!" Wu Yiju rushed forward, took the child in her arms, and started to examine him carefully.
At this moment, the Sky Rapier Sect Master let out a sigh of relief.
At this moment, the old man beside him stabbed his sword at Chu Mo.
