Chapter 1116: Master Emperor
Zhou Wen packed up his things and put the Immortal-Slaying Sword back into the Chaos Pearl. He checked and found that all the important things were there and nothing was lost, even the mourning stick.
The only thing missing was the bamboo sword, which was now held in Ji Moqing's hand.
Ji Moqing was desperately climbing up the mountain, and several people were chasing him from behind. Ji Moqing looked like a mortal, and his speed was far slower than those people. It would not be long before he was caught up.
One of them released an eagle-like companion pet, trying to catch Ji Moqing from the air, but the eagle-like companion pet had just flown into the air when a bolt of lightning appeared out of nowhere and instantly electrocuted the eagle into charcoal.
This scared everyone, but they soon realized the problem and dared not summon flying companion pets anymore. They just climbed up the mountain wall to catch up with Ji Moqing.
As a result, there was no more lightning, and they soon caught up with Ji Moqing. The man at the top reached out to grab Ji Moqing's feet.
Ji Moqing grabbed the crack in the mountain wall with one hand and used the other hand to hold the bamboo sword to chop the man's hand.
Unfortunately, her strength was too weak and her speed was too slow. The man grabbed the blade of the bamboo sword with a casual grab, pulled Ji Moqing down, and clamped her under his armpit.
"Let me go, do you know what you are doing? You will regret what you do." Ji Moqing said struggling.
But her strength was too small, and the man was an epic strong man who didn't care about her punches and kicks, and Ji Moqing couldn't hurt him at all.
"Miss Ji, of course I know what I'm doing, and I absolutely have no regrets." The man smiled and continued, "If you think your family member can come to save you, you're gravely mistaken. Not only does he not know you're here, but even if he did, he couldn't save you. On land, he's invincible, but at sea, even if he were a god, he'd still drown."
"Who said I rely on my brother-in-law to save me? I'm not talking about him." Ji Moqing said.
"If you don't count on him, who else can you count on? Your father? You can't count on him at all. He has gone to the South District and hasn't returned yet. He may not even know that you are missing." The man said again.
"Who said I have to rely on my father?" Ji Moqing said with a pout.
"Oh, then who else can you rely on?" the man asked with a smile.
Of course, he knew very well that no one could rely on Ji Moqing now. The sea was not the Federation's world. Even if people from the six major families came, they would not dare to be arrogant on the sea.
"Damn it." Ji Moqing said, pointing at the bamboo sword in the man's hand.
"Damn it? You mean, this knife will kill me? Or let me return it to you and then stretch my neck for you to kill me?" The man's words made several people laugh.
Ji Moqing didn't laugh, but said seriously: "Don't you think it's strange? Why do I have this knife?"
"What's so strange about this... No, this is a Yuanjin sword, not a companion pet weapon. You didn't carry any weapons with you before, and there is no place to find weapons in this vast ocean. Could it be that this sword is something from Fangzhang Mountain?" The man immediately thought of something wrong, and looked at the bamboo sword in his hand with a strange look in his eyes.
"Wu Zonglie, you are a well-known figure in the overseas alliance, and you are also called Wu Mo. Now it seems that you are just bragging. I didn't expect you to be so stupid. I think you should not be called Wu Mo, but just call you Wu Dai or Wu Sha..." Ji Moqing said.
Wu Zonglie said coldly: "Don't think that we dare not do anything to you just because we want to use you to threaten your brother-in-law. Believe it or not, if you keep talking nonsense, I will chop off one of your hands. Anyway, losing one hand won't affect anything."
Ji Moqing, however, was not afraid at all, and said confidently: "Isn't that right? When have you ever seen a Yuanjin weapon in the dimensional realm? Or do you think that a place like Fangzhang Mountain would have dimensional creatures forging a Yuanjin knife?"
"That makes sense." Wu Zonglie frowned slightly and looked at Ji Moqing and said, "Where did you get this Yuanjin knife?"
"Of course someone gave it to me." Ji Moqing said.
"Who is it?" Wu Zonglie and others looked around. Ji Moqing was right. Since there was a Yuanjin knife here, it proved that someone had come here.
"I'm afraid I'll scare you by telling you this, so you'd better return the knife to me honestly and quickly, then kowtow to me respectfully and ask for my forgiveness. When the owner of the knife comes, I can say a few good words for you so that he will spare your lives." Ji Moqing said seriously.
"I, Wu Zonglie, am not bragging. There is no one in this world who is worthy of me, Wu Zonglie, kneeling down and begging for mercy. What's more, even if there is someone here on the sea, he is from my overseas alliance. How could he save you?" Wu Zonglie sneered.
"What if this person is not from the overseas alliance?" Ji Moqing asked back.
"If it weren't for the coincidence that those guys from the Federation dared to come to the sea, I would let them know the style of me, a strong man at sea." Wu Zonglie said.
"You mean, you want to compete with the Human Emperor?" Ji Moqing sneered.
"Human Emperor?" Wu Zonglie and others were shocked.
"Yes, it is the Lord Human Emperor. He passed by here and saw that I have extraordinary bones, am smart, kind and lovely, and extremely talented, so he accepted me as his disciple and gave me his sword for self-defense." Ji Moqing talked nonsense without blinking, and said it as if it were true.
"Do you think I will still believe you? If it is really as you said, why would the Human Emperor not come to save you and let you go to such great lengths to make up so many lies?" Wu Zonglie said disdainfully.
The last time Ji Moqing was able to escape was because she was so good at talking that she managed to deceive all of them, which gave her the opportunity to take advantage of her.
Naturally, Wu Zonglie would not believe her this time no matter what. Moreover, the Human Emperor had not appeared since the battle on the ranking list five years ago. In this vast ocean, Ji Moqing's chance of meeting the Human Emperor was even smaller than winning the jackpot in the lottery. How could such a coincidence happen?
"You don't know this. Although my master is a hero, he is old after all, and his abilities are not so good in some aspects..." Ji Moqing said with a blink of an eye.
The expressions of Wu Zonglie and the others turned a little strange. Wu Zonglie sneered and said, "Did the Human Emperor tell you this?"
"Of course not. Men have to save face, how could they tell me this. But I heard from my master that there was some problem in his relationship with his mistress, so he came here to look for the elixir of life. That's my guess..." Ji Moqing said.
