What's going on?
Chu Mo walked over calmly, his expression unreadable.
Zeng Zihui hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Chu Mo's arm, and shouted with grief and indignation in his eyes:
“Junior Nephew Chu, you’ve returned just in time. I’ve been getting familiar with our Xuantian Sect these past few days and happened to run into this young lady.”
"I didn't recognize her and was worried that she might be a spy who had infiltrated the area, so I asked her a question. I didn't expect her to suddenly launch a sneak attack."
"Look at my face, that's where she hit me. If I hadn't reacted quickly, I probably would be in serious trouble..."
Xiahou Nan was instantly enraged, unleashing the overwhelming pressure of a Tribulation Transcending cultivator as he coldly said:
"Kid, do you really think I wouldn't dare kill you?"
Yan Wuhen, who was standing to the side, felt relieved when he saw Chu Mo return. He immediately rebuked him angrily:
"Fellow Daoist Xiahou, let's stick to the facts. You keep threatening my sect's holy son with force. Do you really think the Xuantian Sect has no one to rely on?"
"Moreover, this is the God-Slaying Alliance, not your Demon-Suppressing Kingdom. How dare you be so presumptuous? Do you even respect Xiao Mo?"
After saying that, he turned to look at Chu Mo and said loudly:
“Xiao Mo, I don’t know what your relationship is with this Xiahou Nan, but he knows I am your grandmaster uncle and your master’s grandmaster uncle, yet he still shows me no respect at all.”
"It's no use associating with such people. My grandmaster uncle won't make things difficult for you. He'll break whichever hand they use to hit someone. I can pretend this never happened."
Qin Potian, who had been standing to the side with a gloomy expression, could no longer hold back and shouted angrily:
"Grandmaster Uncle, although Miss Xiahou and her father did hit someone, they had a reason for it, and the fault does not lie with them!"
Zeng Zihui, standing to the side, immediately turned extremely pale and shouted excitedly:
"Junior Nephew Qin, so you mean the fault lies with me? Also, the Holy Son of the Xuantian Sect was beaten, does that mean the beating was for nothing?"
"Do you really think what I care about is that she hit me? She didn't just hit my face, she hit the face of the Xuantian Sect and Junior Nephew Chu Mo!"
"If word gets out, people will just say that Chu Mo, the leader of the God-Slaying Alliance, was beaten on his own turf, and in the end, no one will dare to speak out against it!"
"What will others think of the Xuantian Sect in the future? What will they think of the God-Slaying Alliance?"
Everyone present fell silent, their eyes filled with complex emotions.
Although everyone knows that this kid deserved to be beaten and has no one to blame but himself.
But given his status, it's certainly damaging to the image of the alliance leader to be beaten like this!
This won't sound good if word gets out!
Often, we can't just rely on reason when doing things.
But no one said anything, and only the leader of the alliance could decide what to do.
Hearing these heavy accusations being leveled at him, even the furious Xiahou Nan instantly calmed down.
This matter is neither a big deal nor a small one.
Although she had a good relationship with Chu Mo, he was Chu Mo's senior from his sect, and their relationship was far more important than that of her.
He could almost guess what the other party would choose without even thinking about it.
No matter the time or circumstance, the interests of the sect and family will always be put first.
This idea has long been deeply rooted in people's minds, especially among the scions of prominent families.
Xiahou Nan held the same view.
He didn't say anything more, just stared straight at Chu Mo, the anger in his eyes not diminishing in the slightest.
He wanted to see how Chu Mo would decide!
Is he...?
Will I be different from others?
If Chu Mo truly disregards their past relationship, he will have no choice but to endure this humiliation.
The current Godslayer Alliance is not the same as the Demon Slayer Sect of the past.
A sense of sorrow and frustration swept through Xiahou Nan's heart.
Looking at the silent Chu Mo, Zeng Zihui had a smug look on his face.
Yan Wuhen, however, was much calmer.
No matter what Chu Mo thinks, he can't escape this identity.
As long as he remains Qin Potian's disciple, he is a disciple of the Xuantian Sect, whether he wants to acknowledge it or not.
As the sect leader, he will always be his grand-uncle and the senior disciple of the leader of the God-Slaying Alliance.
Just like now, everyone has to treat him with utmost respect, even if the other party is a Ninth Tribulation cultivator.
Even if the Demon Suppressing Kingdom's ruler, a cultivator at the sixth level of the Tribulation, is furious, what can he do to himself?
"Xiao Mo, what are you still hesitating about?"
Yan Wuhen chuckled lightly, his expression calm and composed. This feeling of being in control of everything was really exhilarating!
In particular, they control a group of cultivators who have undergone tribulation and a powerful force that dominates the Kunlun Realm.
Chu Mo ignored him, turned to look at the quiet Xiahou Ruoxi beside him, and said gently:
"What happened? Tell me about it."
Upon hearing his words, the girl, who had been tightly pursing her lips, suddenly stopped, her eyes immediately reddening, and she choked out:
"I was bored today, so I thought I'd come here to see...you, and then I ran into this lecherous guy. He wanted to talk to me, but I ignored him..."
Zeng Zihui immediately sensed something was wrong and hurriedly interrupted, "You're talking nonsense, I just..."
"Shut up! Did I ask you a question?" Chu Mo's voice was icy, and the anger in his eyes was almost uncontrollable.
"Xiao Mo, although Zi Hui is young, he is a holy son of the sect, and by seniority, he is your grand-uncle!"
Yan Wuhen's eyes were filled with displeasure, and his face turned extremely ugly. Did this Chu Mo intend to help an outsider?
Could it be that this woman is also his lover?
