Fear no powerful enem...
"Miss Wang... we both know the details of what happened three years ago. A humble cultivator dared to provoke the prince of the royal family. Do you think he was innocent? Was he wronged?" Qin Yuanze had already put away his jade-handled folding fan, which was said to be the work of a famous artist, and moved to Qin Mo's side and front. He was not as impulsive as Qin Yumu, but his lethality was always the highest.
While the three were arguing heatedly, Qin Mo kept his eyes closed and remained motionless, processing the memories he had just retrieved from the depths of his mind.
Three years ago, Qin Mo accompanied Qin Lan to the capital to pay homage to the new emperor's ascension to the throne, where he met Qin Yumu, Qin Yuanze, and Liang Zhengyuan from the Liang State Duke's family. The three took a liking to Qin Mo and spent their days taking him around the capital. Until one day, while Qin Mo was out playing alone, he was provoked and fought with the person, only to be defeated on the spot. Although his three best friends later went directly to the perpetrator's home and beat him half to death, Qin Mo became depressed and withdrawn until the brothel incident, after which Qin Lan took him away.
The person who defeated Qin Mo at that time was Huang Seshu. He had just entered the initial stage of the Yellow Realm, while Qin Mo had already entered the Profound Realm. After this incident, Qin Mo's Dao Heart had a flaw, which was not repaired until Li Mo took over.
"Alright, enough arguing. Since we've met as enemies, we should settle things once and for all. I'll offer 50,000 taels as a wager, and you can wager these two sets of weapons. Let's have another match. Are you in?" Qin Mo gently pulled his two best friends aside, walked up to Wang Yuyan, and said calmly.
"What if I don't gamble?" Wang Yuyan stammered through gritted teeth.
"Then let's have a group fight! Men should fight to their hearts' content. What do you think your chances of winning are?" Qin Mo saw Wang Yuyan's gritted teeth and a wicked smile appeared on his lips as he uttered a term that only thugs would use.
"Qin Mo, don't use your status as the heir to intimidate others. You only got a fine for killing someone, but we'll exterminate your entire family if we kill you. Don't you have any shame?" Wang Yuyan was like a mad cat, revealing her claws and fangs, but that was all.
She didn't dare to gang up on him directly. Whether she could win or not, she didn't care. Qin Mo was a genuine prince of the royal family. Even if he committed a crime, it would be handled by the Court of Imperial Clan Affairs, and the Ministry of Justice had no jurisdiction. But if something happened to him, well... then the Emperor would be the one to step in.
Qin Mo straightened his posture and solemnly said, "I have fought Captain Huang one-on-one and signed a life-or-death pact with him. We will each live or die according to our own fate."
