"Senior Luo, Senior Gao Shan, Senior Qing Hua, Senior Hai, and all the other Seniors and Fellow Daoists present here."
Xuan Yun's group of three didn't continue arguing with Mu Lingyao, and they directly leaped up and cupped their fists before speaking loudly to everyone present here.
"I presume all of you are already aware of what happened today. If there's anything you don't know, then I can explain it in detail. I hope that Seniors will uphold justice for us. It's like this."
"Before the Gold Seizing Pagoda opened, Fairy Hua Die, Young Miss Mu, and Liu Shuangyan made a bet. Whoever broke their own record would be considered the winner, and the loser would have to kneel and kowtow to the winner. Later on, Young Miss Mu and Big Sister Hua Die broke their records, and only Liu Shuangyan didn't, so she really did lose."
"Liu Shuangyan only said that the bet was a joke, and she didn't have any intention of going back on her word. But just this alone infuriated Young Miss Mu. I believe all the Seniors here witnessed it with their own eyes. Young Miss Mu first utilized the ancient Crimsongold Snake to trap Liu Shuangyan, and then she slapped Liu Shuangyan over and over again on the face."
"Even though Senior Kaiyun stepped forward to persuade her in the end and even didn't hesitate to apologize and plead for leniency, Young Miss Mu was still overbearing and unforgiving. She even slapped Liu Shuangyan in front of Senior Kaiyun and the others."
Actually, Xuan Yun really knew how to talk. With just a few words, he'd directly described Mu Lingyao as an unreasonable Eldest Young Miss that relied on her position to bully others.
This infuriated Mu Lingyao greatly, and she shouted furiously. "Xuan Yun, you hypocrite! What nonsense are you speaking!? "
"Young Miss Mu, do you dare say that what I said isn't the truth?"
"So what if it's the truth? A bet is a loss. Who asked Liu Shuangyan to go back on her word? "
Meanwhile, Liu Kaiyun from the Suncrow Liu Clan stood out as well and said in a low voice, "Young Miss Mu, even if that granddaughter of I's didn't admit it, you didn't have to be so ruthless to her, right?"
"She deserved it! She didn't admit it this time, so I hit her. If she doesn't admit it next time, then I'll hit her as well! "
Xuan Yun said proudly, "If you agree to a bet, you must accept your loss. If you don't admit it, then you should indeed be beaten. But now, all of you refuse to admit it, so what should we do?"
Only when she heard this did Mu Lingyao realize that she'd fallen for Xuan Yun's trick. She was extremely furious and shouted, "Xuan Yun, this is a matter of me meeting Liu Shuangyan. What does it have to do with a hypocrite like you?!"
"Well said!"
Xuan Yun stared at her, and said, "Then what does the bet between us and that upstart have to do with you, Miss Mu?"
"You!"
Mu Lingyao was momentarily speechless. Every single word of Xuan Yun's was like a gem, and it was reasonable and well-founded, causing her to be unable to refute it.
Xuan Yun snorted coldly and felt rather pleased in his heart. After that, he cupped his fists once again and said to everyone, "Seniors, junior, Bai Yufei, and Liu Feng had similarly made a bet with that upstart who called himself the First Master before the Gold Seizing Pagoda had even opened. Many people present can bear witness to this. Now, we'll make that upstart fulfill the bet. Just as Young Miss Mu said, one must accept defeat!"
Bai Yufei stood out as well and said, "Now, Mu Lingyao is intentionally protecting that upstart. Not only has she refused to admit defeat, she's even threatened to make us suffer!"
After that, Liu Feng said as well, "Mu Lingyao won earlier and attacked Liu Shuangyan. Now that the upstart has lost, Mu Lingyao is protecting him and refusing to admit defeat. If this isn't taking advantage of her position to bully others, then what is?"
"Seniors, please uphold justice for us!"
Xuan Yun, Bai Yufei, and Liu Feng stood in the air as they cupped their fists and shouted in unison.
The three of them really weren't simple, especially Xuan Yun. He was extremely shrewd, and it was obvious from the seniors he'd mentioned earlier.
Previously, he had mentioned a total of four old seniors: Old Senior Luo, Old Senior Gao Shan, Old Senior Qing Hua, and Old Senior Hai. These four old men were all very prestigious old seniors in the Bipolar Sky Region. Their influence was extraordinary, especially Old Senior Luo. Not only was he the manager of the Gold Seizing Pagoda, but he was also an elder of the Wind Moon Small World.
Fairy Hua Die knew that it was fine to offend the Golden Crow Liu family, but if she offended these seniors as well, the consequences would be unthinkable. She was afraid that Mu Lingyao would contradict the four seniors in a fit of anger, so she hurriedly stood out and explained.
"Seniors, it's not that we don't admit defeat, but this wager is truly unfair."
Xuan Yun retorted, "Fairy Hua Die, many people here heard with their own ears that the upstart said that ascending to the twenty-seventh floor was like a toy. May I ask how it's unfair?"
"It's true that he said that, but … because he's lost all his cultivation, he's mentally unstable. He speaks incoherently. Not only did he say that ascending to the twenty-seventh floor was like a toy, he even said that ascending to the eighty-first floor would be as easy as flipping his hand. Do you believe that?"
Mu Lingyao added, "That's right. He's mentally unstable to begin with. All he did was boast a little, and you set up a trap and made a wager with him. Is this how you bully people? Does a wager like this even count? "
Now, the three of them were stunned. First, they'd described Mu Lingyao as an unreasonable young lady who used her power to bully others, and then they'd asked the seniors present to uphold justice. However, they'd never thought that fairy Hua Die and Mu Lingyao would bring up the fact that the upstart was mentally unstable due to losing all his cultivation. Now, not only had the three of them gone for wool and come home shorn, they'd become the ones bullying an evil person who'd lost all his cultivation.
"Do you really think he's mentally unstable just because you say so? Sorry, I've interacted with that upstart before. Although he's lost all his cultivation, there's definitely nothing wrong with his mind, "said Xuan Yun. Xuan Yun said, "Moreover, can a mentally deranged person win 1.8 billion in a single round of dice in a casino?"
"It's precisely because he's mentally unstable that he can win 1.8 billion in the gambling city. Everyone knows that he won 1.8 billion by dueling a leopard four or five times in a row!" Mu Lingyao chuckled. "Let me ask you, would a person with a normal brain challenge a leopard multiple times in a row in a game of dice? Only a mentally unstable person would do that, right? This is called fortune favors fools! Don't be jealous, alright? "
"You! Preposterous! Preposterous! "
Xuan Yun couldn't do anything about Mu Lingyao, so he begged again. "Senior Luo, please uphold justice for us."
"This …"
Senior Luo was also in a difficult position. He didn't want to get involved in the matters between these youngsters, especially since these youngsters all had extraordinary backgrounds. If he didn't handle it well and caused a huge conflict, then he'd have to take responsibility as the person in charge. However, since he'd been forced to do so, he could only stand out and uphold justice. He stroked his goatee and deliberated for a moment before asking.
"May I know who the upstart you're talking about is?"
Xuan Yun pointed at Gu Qingfeng who was sitting on the Nine-Headed Firecloud Scarlet Tiger Chariot and shouted, "It's him!"
