The man never expected that Mingluo, who looked like a delicate and beautiful woman, could so easily evade her master and capture him.
He was furious and was about to resist when he felt his body go numb and he couldn't move an inch. His throat was also sore and he couldn't say a word. He could only look at his master and uncle with his mouth and eyes crooked, begging them to save his life.
Mingluo, with her delicate features and a mocking smile, asked, "Zhao Jiuming, what do you think I should do to punish him?"
“You…” Zhao Jiuming’s face turned ashen. “Put the person down and let’s talk this out.”
"Tsk tsk!" Minglu laughed. "I didn't expect the Celestial Master Sect to be so hypocritical. When I tried to talk to you nicely, you were rude and foul-mouthed. Now you want to talk to me nicely? That's simple, beat me and then we can talk nicely."
With a flick of her wrist, she slapped the man across the face twice, knocking out two teeth before sending him flying.
Then, his figure moved like a ghost through the crowd.
A series of slapping sounds rose and fell, followed by screams and cries of pain as people fell to the ground.
Zhao Jiuming's eyes narrowed slightly as he leaped to stop Mingluo, but he was always a step behind. Only after Mingluo had easily finished beating the man and returned to her seat did Zhao Jiuming stand up, panting, his eyes fixed on Mingluo with a sinister look.
"You're asking for it!"
Zhao Jiuming had never encountered such an insult in his life.
He was an outstanding disciple of the Celestial Masters Sect and the successor to the sect leader. He was always flattered wherever he went, but now he was being humiliated to such an extent. It was an utter disgrace to his life.
He knew he was no match for Mingluo; in a one-on-one fight, even his master, Master Zhao, had been defeated by Mingluo.
But they have a formation!
The Celestial Master Sect's Demon-Subduing Formation has resonated throughout history and played a crucial role in ancient demon-subduing battles.
He refused to believe he couldn't win over a vixen!
It just so happens that my master said this woman has many secrets, and he will torture her severely to make her wish she were dead.
He shouted coldly, "Form ranks!"
Everyone perked up and immediately took their positions, scattering talismans as if they were free, surrounding Mingluo and Nie Yuchen.
Minglu thought for a moment. Nie Yuchen was just an ordinary person, but she could let him see the world with her. She could also protect him, so she didn't let him go out.
However, she still asked in a low voice, "Are you scared?"
"Afraid?"
Nie Yuchen was stunned for a moment, then realized that Mingluo was protecting him.
He was secretly pleased and shook his head, saying, "Don't worry, this is a society governed by law. They wouldn't dare do anything, would they, Master Zhao?"
He looked at Zhao Jiuming with a stern gaze, the threat in which was self-evident.
Zhao Jiuming was very confused. He really didn't know how Mingluo had gotten involved with Nie Yuchen, to the point that a wealthy man like Nie Yuchen would help her so much.
More importantly, they really couldn't lay a hand on Nie Yuchen. If they did, their Celestial Master Sect would lose all business dealings with the wealthy elite.
He was furious inside, but his face remained gentle as he said, “President Nie, you don’t understand magic. Our Xuanmen handles things ourselves. It’s not appropriate for you to get involved. Please come out and sit down. But don’t worry, you brought her here, so we won’t do anything to her. We’re just bringing her to our master to apologize. As long as she sincerely repents and knows she was wrong, we won’t make things difficult for her. We do live in a society governed by law, so nothing serious will happen. But we can’t just surrender when someone comes knocking on our door. The law protects private property, doesn’t it?”
Nie Yuchen's lips curled into a mocking smile. "You want to talk to me about the law? The Nie Group's legal team can have a proper talk with you. We're here today to ask you this: since you know the law protects private property, why did Master Zhao break into the women's dormitory at night? And why do the disciples of the Celestial Master Sect repeatedly break into other people's private residences? And why was Zhao Qing dumped at someone else's doorstep? Are the disciples of your Celestial Master Sect trash that can be disposed of at will?"
Minglu glanced at Nie Yuchen, feeling extremely pleased.
That's some sharp tongue. No wonder he runs a big company and has a legal team like Ning Qi's.
Seeing how eloquent Nie Yuchen was, she simply shut her mouth and calmly watched him engage in verbal sparring with others.
Zhao Jiuming's face was ashen. These decisions were made by their higher-ups, and some of the junior disciples here had no idea what was going on.
Now that Nie Yuchen has spoken so bluntly, his face is burning with embarrassment.
Zhao Jiuming forced himself to calm down and said, "President Nie, I'll say it again, this is a matter between our Xuanmen. Who is right and who is wrong is not something you can explain. I didn't want to offend you, which is why I've been so courteous. It's not because I'm afraid of you. Please don't make things difficult for me, President Nie."
"This is a matter for the Xuanmen sect, and only Xuanmen disciples are allowed to get involved?" Nie Yuchen asked.
Zhao Jiuming affirmed, "That's right. Just now, President Nie attacked someone from my Celestial Master Sect. My disciple was powerless to do anything first, so consider it President Nie helping to teach my disciple a lesson."
He showed leniency towards Nie Yuchen.
Nie Yuchen's ancestors were red merchants who donated all their assets to the country. As long as he didn't do anything illegal or criminal, he would never fall from grace. The Celestial Masters Sect didn't want to offend him, so they were as polite as possible.
If we were to tell others, it would be that Nie Yuchen was being irresponsible and insisted on getting involved in Xuanmen's affairs.
Nie Yuchen's lips curled slightly. He slowly raised his hand, gathering a ball of spiritual energy in his palm, and said calmly, "What a coincidence, I am also a disciple of the Xuanmen Sect. Mingluo is my... junior sister. Your Tianshi Sect is bullying my junior sister. Tell me, should I, as the senior brother, intervene?"
Zhao Jiuming was startled. He looked at the ball of pure spiritual energy in Nie Yuchen's hand with a strange expression, hardly believing his eyes.
Nie Yuchen is also a cultivator. When did he cultivate such profound magical power?
The purity of his spiritual energy is even higher than that of his master. How did he manage to do that?
The other disciples of the Celestial Masters Sect were dumbfounded, unable to believe what they were seeing. How could they have been so blind as to provoke such a powerful figure?
Compared to the shock and fear of the disciples of the Celestial Master Sect, Mingluo was furious.
Nie Yuchen dares to call her his junior sister? What a wicked disciple!
If she doesn't teach him a proper lesson, he won't know what it means to respect heaven, earth, parents, and teachers!
She made up her mind to go back and interrogate Nie Yuchen about where he learned his skills. If he had joined another sect, she would take care of the matter.
If he doesn't switch to another sect, she'll make him become her disciple again when she returns today!
