"Old Ancestor is indeed the Old Ancestor, coming and going without a trace. Truly the methods of a deity." Another old man muttered as he looked at the window in awe. Finishing his words, he slowly walked down the stairs.
In the shadows at the back of the Drifting Fragrance Inn, a piece of oilcloth moved slightly, then slowly rose up, revealing a white head. Right now, the eyes of the head were filled with endless confusion.
"What is the Zhan Family's motive for doing this? And that old fart from the Zhan Family, why did he specially come out to watch this boring duel? What are they trying to do? "
"And that Free and Natural Physique person is really a little too interesting … this Mo Jun Ye, what is he trying to do? This old man has always prided himself on being intelligent and quick-witted all my life, but why am I so confused today? "
"There must be some hidden meaning behind this matter … this old man must go back and inform the family first … Xiao Miao has clearly developed feelings for Mo Jun Ye … how should this matter be resolved? Will this Mo Jun Ye eventually become an ally of the Miao Family? What a headache ah … "
Without a sound, this person also floated up and disappeared without a trace. In the distance, a streak of light slowly disappeared. From the looks of it, it was heading towards the direction of the Miao Family …
In the Drifting Fragrance Inn, Jun Moxie's ears twitched slightly, and the corners of his mouth slowly curved into a bright smile …
Zhan Yu Shu and Zhan Qing Feng stared blankly at that Cat-bodied Tiger that was still showing off its prowess. Both of their hearts were filled with despair! Was everything going to end just like that?
But … we had clearly prepared an extremely detailed plan, prepared to completely subdue this Free and Natural Physique person, and from there, establish the future of our Zhan Family in the Misty Mansion … and even had many other plans …
All of these were things that we had already started preparing ever since we knew that this person with the Free and Natural Physique had come to the Misty Mansion … we had prepared for a long time, and even used the entire strength of our family to carry it out …
To lose to a country bumpkin just like that? And even fall into his trap?!
"I say … what are you two brothers doing here? Isn't it time to fulfill the bet we agreed on? " Jun Moxie shook his head and said, "I remember that the first condition was … your Zhan Family promised to give me a slot to enter the Spiritual Herbal Gardens. You won't go back on your word, will you? "
"If you're willing to bet, you must be willing to lose. Don't worry! No matter what, our Zhan Family will definitely achieve this. "Zhan Qing Feng was sweating profusely, but he could not back down now.
"Alright! How straightforward! I'll wait five days to enter the Spiritual Herbal Garden. The most important thing is that all of you must remember that I want to enter, but Miss Miao's spot cannot be delayed either … "Jun Moxie snapped his fingers." The third condition is that I can make any request of the Zhan Family. Of course, I am not prepared to fulfill this condition now … so we can put it aside for now. "
When Zhan Qing Feng and Zhan Yu Shu heard this, not only did they not heave a sigh of relief, their hearts were even more tense.
From his words, anyone could tell that what he wanted now was definitely the fulfillment of the second condition! Right here, ten kowtows, ten "Grandpa"...
Indeed —
"But the second condition is not that troublesome and seems very simple. Since the two of you are here, we might as well fulfill it here." Jun Moxie said lightly, his eyes cold and vicious. "Now that you've lost, according to the agreement, the two of you will kowtow to me ten times and call me Grandpa ten times!"
The moment he said this, everyone was shocked!
Although there was a bet beforehand, no one had expected that this great prodigy Mo Jun Ye would be so audacious! To actually make such a request that would make them fight to the death with him!
If he did not let it go today, the entire Zhan Family would have a grudge against him for generations to come, with no possibility of reconciliation!
Anyone who wanted to develop their career in the Misty Mansion would not do this. Only the wise ones would not do it. Because … offending the Zhan Family in the Misty Mansion was no different from committing suicide!
"You!" Zhan Qing Feng's usual gentle and refined expression had long disappeared. His eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Mo Jun Ye, spitting out word by word through gritted teeth. Don't go too far! "
"What, you want to go back on your word?" Jun Moxie laughed coldly. "That is also a blood oath made with the ancestors and descendants of the Zhan Family! Even if I can let you off … your Zhan Family will not agree, right? "
Zhan Qing Feng and Zhan Yu Shu were speechless.
The reason why the Zhan brothers would retort was probably because the kowtowing and calling him grandfather was too embarrassing. With their status, if they really did as they promised, they would probably never have the face to stand in front of others again. Such humiliation was even more difficult to bear. Naturally, the thought of reneging on their promise arose in their hearts.
But when she heard Young Master Jun's warning, she suddenly remembered that the result of the bet had already been decided. So, the bet was in effect immediately. If she didn't kowtow and call him 'grandfather', then according to the terms of the bet, it would be tantamount to her cursing her ancestors and future generations!
Even if they understood the situation, if they kowtowed to this country bumpkin in front of so many people … how would they be able to stand in front of others in the future? Even if they could take over the Zhan Family in the future, today's failure would be an indelible humiliation!
Instantly, the veins on their foreheads bulged while their eyes almost split apart from rage. At this moment, the two of them were truly in a dilemma. Even if they wanted to open their mouths to explain, they were actually unable to say a single word.
"Since you have the guts to set up a bet, you must be willing to admit defeat. Paying your debts is fair and just! " Jun Moxie said leisurely. "You can't possibly … take all the advantages for yourselves, but impose all the harsh conditions on others. Once the failure is placed on you yourselves, you have to come up with excuses and quibble, right? To be so forgiving to oneself and so harsh to others is the biggest taboo in the world! "
At this moment, there was only coldness and determination in Great Prodigy Mo's eyes. Anyone who saw his eyes could clearly tell that today's matter was definitely not going to be resolved peacefully! With Mo Jun Ye's current attitude, it was obvious that he wanted to force the two Zhan Family brothers to kowtow ten times and call him Grandpa ten times.
To resolve this matter perfectly, it was actually very simple. As long as this Free and Natural Physique Great Prodigy Mo loosened his mouth and said magnanimously, "Actually, we were just joking earlier, why did you kowtow …"
Then everything would be over!
This way, the Zhan Family brothers would also be able to step down from the stage, and everyone would have a happy ending … It's not that we brothers don't want to fulfill the bet, but that the other party is magnanimous and doesn't mind. We can't possibly force ourselves to do it, right …
But other than Jun Moxie, there was no one else who had the right to say such words!
Right now, Jun Dashao was firmly in control of this matter. His face was filled with a 'do not come near me' expression. Everyone who wanted to bite the bullet and come forward to plead for leniency, after seeing his expression, tactfully dispelled the thought. Not to mention that there was no one who was familiar with Mo Jun Ye, even if there was, they would only be asking for a rebuff if they really went forward.
Finally, amidst the endless silence, a white-haired old man squinted his triangular eyes and came out to smooth things over. He chuckled and said, "Young Master Mo, you see, the notary has already confirmed your victory and the bet has been successfully concluded. Can we … Haha, this joking bet … let's just forget about it. Anyway, the quota to enter the Elixir Garden has already been confirmed … Why don't we …"
Everyone looked over, and there was almost no one who didn't know this old man. This old man could be considered to be rather knowledgeable, but his character was extremely unbearable. He had always relied on the Zhan Family and did things according to the Zhan Family's whims. Now that he had stepped out to smooth things over, no one was surprised.
"Who are you? What right do you have to interrupt here? " Jun Moxie turned his head and looked at him coldly. "Do you have the right to speak about the bet between me and the Zhan Family brothers? A joking bet? How is this a joke? Did you participate in this bet?? What kind of thing are you? Could it be that your words can represent the Zhan Family? "
When the old man heard this, he was immediately startled, and his face instantly turned purple. All along, he was used to flaunting his seniority. With his head of white hair, even if someone despised his actions, as long as it wasn't too big of a deal, most people would still give him some face. After all, respecting the old and virtuous was a basic principle of life, no matter which world it was.
Although this old man was far from being 'virtuous', and even had nothing to do with the word 'virtuous', just based on his head of white hair, he could barely be considered 'old'. That was why he had stepped out today, trying to smooth things over and help the Zhan Family brothers get off the stage.
In his mind, he was old and virtuous. Although he was suspected of stepping out forcefully, he was still helping the two families reconcile. Not only would he be doing the Zhan Family a huge favor, he would also be able to use this as an opportunity to form a relationship with the future number one expert of the Misty Mansion. That was why he had stepped out to mediate things. But he had never expected to meet such a rash young man today. Not only did he not give him any face, he even gave him a hot fart …
"This old man naturally cannot represent the Zhan Family, but …" The old man had wanted to say 'pass', and then retaliate harshly. He wanted to criticize this fellow in front of him for not knowing how to respect the old and his dignity, and that he was lacking in even the most basic of morals. He had to go further and make this brat look ashamed, so that he would know the consequences of offending this old man. Even if he could not convince this brat, he had to muddy the waters and give the two young masters of the Zhan Family a chance to get off the stage.
Who knew that just as he was about to start his long speech, he was immediately interrupted by Jun Moxie. "Old brat, if you cannot represent the Zhan Family, then what are you bullshitting for? Do you think that you are so f * cking respectable? Why should this old man give you face? You can't represent the Zhan Family, and yet you dare to come out and spout nonsense? Hmm? Or is it because it is spring now … and you are f * cking in heat? "
