Looking at Shangguan Qingyun, who seemed to think he was invincible again, Chu Mo calmly sneered:
"Are you trying to kill me? Then I'll give you one chance, but if you make a move, you'll definitely die today, unless I die!"
These words caused another uproar in the audience, and everyone looked horrified.
Judging from his words, does he perhaps still intend to confront Shangguan Qingyun head-on?
How dare he? The other party is a Transcending Tribulation cultivator!
Although he could kill a Nascent Soul cultivator with a single palm strike, if he were to truly face Shangguan Qingyun, he would definitely be the one killed with that same palm strike.
"Young man, you're still too arrogant!"
Some people couldn't help but exclaim loudly, and others also offered their comments.
"After all, he is an unparalleled genius. Reaching such a level at such a young age, it's normal for him to be a little arrogant, but... he's too irrational."
"Heh, no matter how extraordinary someone is, if they offend the Shangguan family, they will only face destruction."
"That's right, they are ancient families from Zhongzhou. Their profound foundation and terrifying strength are beyond the imagination of ordinary people."
The group of young and beautiful girls started chattering amongst themselves.
There was worry, surprise, doubt, and incomprehension.
They couldn't understand why that handsome young man would send his protector away at this time.
And the latter just left like that? Wasn't he worried that Shangguan Qingyun would take the opportunity to make a move?
The icy beauty in the silver hat also looked surprised, and a hint of curiosity appeared on her cool and beautiful face.
For some reason, she didn't think the other person was acting impulsively without thinking.
How could such a prodigy be so foolish? He must have something to rely on!
It was her gut feeling, and she believed she was right.
However, she did not comment on the speculations and discussions among her fellow disciples.
Although Shangguan Qingyun looks like a rough and domineering old man.
But in fact, he was very perceptive. At this moment, he could see that Chu Mo's composure was not feigned.
Even if the other party is young and naive, the previous cultivator who had undergone tribulation should absolutely not have left so carelessly.
That means he's very confident!
Even if he does it himself, the young man will be perfectly fine.
Such a prodigious genius would be an absolute treasure in any sect.
The fact that they were willing to send a cultivator who had undergone tribulation to protect him demonstrates how much they valued him.
In that situation, how could the other party possibly be put in danger?
Shangguan Qingyun's eyes flickered uncertainly; he didn't know where the other party's confidence came from.
But he believed that even if he did take action, he probably wouldn't be able to kill the other party.
certainly,
He naturally didn't believe the other person's claim that if he didn't die, he would definitely die.
As a cultivator at the third tribulation stage, if he wanted to leave, there were very few people in the entire Eastern Region who could stop him.
No one dared to stay... cough, maybe the person from before would be an exception.
He got to where he is today not only because of his domineering nature and family background, but also because of his ability to assess the situation.
He had already made up his mind, and with an arrogant snort, he said:
"Boy, if I weren't afraid of people saying that I'm bullying the young, I would definitely cut you down with my sword for your arrogant attitude."
"I'm not killing you now not because I'm afraid of you, but because I'm thinking of the reputation of my Shangguan family."
Chu Mo merely scoffed at his boastful words and said indifferently:
"You should be glad you made that choice, otherwise you might be dead by now!"
While a cultivator at the third tribulation level is indeed terrifying, if Chu Mo wanted to kill him, it would be difficult for him to escape.
Under the Godfall Sword, ordinary cultivators undergoing tribulation who are unprepared...
There is absolutely no other way but to perish.
Unless they run away the moment they see them, there might still be a glimmer of hope.
Faced with Chu Mo's arrogance, Shangguan Qingyun was so angry that his face turned ashen.
But in that brief moment, he sensed a danger.
It felt as if he were being stared at intently by an ancient, ferocious beast.
This horrified him.
There's definitely something fishy about this kid in front of me!
For a moment, he was stunned and didn't say anything.
This left many people completely bewildered, but some observant individuals began to notice something thoughtful in their eyes.
They certainly didn't believe Shangguan Qingyun's platitudes.
Given such provocation, no matter what, we would take action to teach them a lesson as a warning.
But Shangguan Qingyun did not do that, and there is only one reason for that.
He has a lot of concerns!
Thinking of this, everyone looked at Chu Mo with even greater shock.
At this moment, Chu Mo had already turned around and stood beside the fifth girl, calmly asking:
"What are your plans? Are you going to stay here or leave?"
If it weren't for what happened next, No. 5 might have continued working at the Maritime Prohibition Bureau.
But now, that possibility is absolutely impossible for her.
Continuing to stay here could even put their lives in danger.
After all, Chu Mo's deterrent power cannot be maintained here for long.
Once he leaves, there will be plenty of people eager to curry favor with Jin Hai, and they will try every means to cause trouble for her and her granddaughter.
Girl number five looked completely bewildered.
At only seventeen years old, she never thought of leaving this place.
She knew, of course, how serious the consequences of staying here would be.
If we don't stay here, where can we go?
Although she had traveled to the Southern Regions by ship, the exorbitant ticket price was beyond her means.
As for other places in the Eastern Region, she had never been there, and with her grandmother, who was still recovering from her injuries, it was even more difficult for her to go anywhere.
