Chapter 1008: 322: I, Hong Guo, Have Returned_2

The Divine Elder is about to break through to the absolute peak, and he is watching the battle on the city wall. If I can kill this madman today, I will surely leave a good impression in front of the Divine Elder. Because of this merit, I might even enter the Eight Races Sacred Land.

Therefore, these five senior brothers are like beasts seeing raw meat, eager to tear Su Yue apart immediately.

Of course, they were also curious.

When did I provoke this fool?

We’ve never even met, why do you have so much resentment?

Who humiliated you?

Is this your own imagination?

"All together, or one-on-one?"

Su Yue wasted no words. He slowly raised his sword, calmly watching the five Yangxiang members.

They were all high-rank Fifth-Grade.

If they attack together, even if Su Yue were to win, he might be beaten half to death.

But with Moke here, the opponent could not attack all at once, it would be too unfair.

...

"Moke, take your disciple and leave now, and he can keep his life. If you wait until the Jing Niao City warriors make a move, he won’t have a chance to live."

Cang Ji sneered.

He knew these five senior brothers had made quite a few achievements among Fifth-Grade Martial Artists.

Heiye nodded in satisfaction.

Even though these five weren’t his direct disciples, they were akin to his brothers’ disciples.

Making achievements before Cang Ji was also a matter of bringing glory to their ancestors.

"Since my disciple has been wronged in Jing Niao City, I must stand up for him and let him release his anger.

"You think Cang Ji is hard to provoke, does that mean I, Moke, am easy to bully?

"One-on-one duel, I will let you see the power of my disciple."

Moke sneered.

He put on a calm front, but was actually quite nervous inside.

But Su Yue had notified me through the crow, he was confident about dealing with Fifth-Grade.

He already explained to Moke that he needed Moke to help suppress the Grandmaster so he could kill to his heart’s content.

And Moke had a backup plan.

As soon as Su Yue was in danger, he would personally step in and leave with Hong Guo.

He would never let his disciple die.

Actually, Moke had another small thought.

He knew Hong Guo came from the Eight Races Sacred Land and wanted to use the Martial Artists in Jing Niao City to see what kind of talent Hong Guo really had.

Killing a Fifth-Grade as a Fourth-Grade, indeed, this was an ability only the next generation from the Eight Races Sacred Land could have.

...

"Divine Elder, Zi Xiong requests battle."

Just as Moke finished his words, the weakest among the five brothers, Zi Xiong, stepped forward to quickly take credit.

Such opportunities were rare.

The other four brothers were infuriated.

You shameless one.

"I, Zi Xiong, can also fight, guaranteeing a kill in one hit."

"I can also fight."

Soon, a few brothers competed eagerly.

Su Yue sneered.

So eager to court death, I should really give these young Yangxiangs a lesson.

"Fine, Zi Xiong, you go first.

"If you can kill this beast in three moves today, I will reward you with one Heiye pellet."

The City Lord Heiye swiped his sleeve, and his voice thundered.

You Moke plot against me, bully me, then I will make sure your disciple dies today, letting you be heartbroken.

Cang Ji nodded.

He too had his own thoughts.

Knowing how much Moke valued his disciple, he wouldn’t just watch Hong Guo die.

If Hong Guo was at the brink of death, Moke would have no choice but to rush out to rescue.

As for Hong Guo’s life or death, Cang Ji didn’t care at all, he only hoped Moke would leave Jing Niao City.

Once he arbitrarily rushed out, he couldn’t return again, by then, he could peacefully guard Jing Niao City, waiting to breakthrough completely.

That would be a good thing.

A great thing.

"Wait!"

Suddenly, Moke frowned and stopped.

"Hmm? Moke, are you chickening out?

"If you dare not let your disciple accept the challenge, let him break his arms to atone for his sins, and take your rubbish away."

Cang Ji’s heart skipped, but his face remained mocking.

Now Moke, in Jing Niao City, could threaten many Grandmasters, otherwise, Cang Ji would have ordered people to besiege Hong Guo.

Unfortunately, he dared not issue such an order at all costs.

This group of Grandmasters didn’t matter, Cang Ji feared Moke going insane and killing Xu Baiyan.

So, it was a balance.

He could only hope his subordinates could fight fairly, putting Hong Guo in a near-death state, so Moke would risk everything to rescue.

"Laughable, my disciple is so talented, undefeatable below Grandmaster, how could I retreat.

"I merely find this fight quite dull, why not add some stakes?"

Moke’s eyes turned, a plan brewing.

Then, he stared at Heiye, smiling with eerie sarcasm.

"What scheme are you up to now?"

Cang Ji’s face remained cold.

This monstrous Moke, his little schemes were endless.

"My disciple killing someone, wasting Qi Blood, who will replenish his Qi Blood?

"How about this, if my disciple can kill your Fifth-Grade, you will offer 10 Heiye pellets as compensation... I find it reasonable."

Moke smiled sinisterly.

"You’re dreaming!"

Heiye was first to endure no more.

You kill our Jing Niao City’s Martial Artists, and want the City Lord of Jing Niao City to compensate you.

Do you dare to go even more too far?

"If you refuse to offer a single Heiye pellet, then I will kill a Sixth-Grade, then it will be fair for my disciple’s grievances.

"If a Fifth-Grade kills a Fourth-Grade, shouldn’t there be some cost?

Moke’s eyes roved over several Sixth-Grade Charging Generals.

Instantly, many Sixth-Grade subconsciously stepped back.

Moke was Ninth-Grade.

To kill a Sixth-Grade was as easy as flipping a hand, and the Divine Elder Cang Ji was still seriously wounded, he couldn’t stop Moke at all.
