Chapter 638: Chapter 638: Scared Stiff

Before long, Mo Huangyun returned.

By his side was an old man with grizzled beard though with a rosy complexion and plump skin, full of vigor.

A Saintly Position powerhouse from the Mo Family, Mo Hong.

The higher the realm, the longer the lifespan, and the slower the aging process.

This Mo Hong was already more than a thousand years old which was roughly equivalent to a normal person’s sixties, yet he still had a lifespan of up to eight hundred more years, so despite appearing elderly, his vitality was still incredibly robust.

He was filled with anger in his heart.

Whether it was Ling Tian Academy or the establishment of this camp, the Mo Family had contributed greatly and naturally held enormous authority.

Now, could there actually be a Great Sacrificial Heaven so blind as to dare to insult a scion of their Mo Family?

Truly, he was blind as a dog and deserved a “reflection” on his part.

“Great-grandfather, it was him!” Mo Huangyun pointed at Feng Yidao.

Fucking hell!

Before Mo Hong could utter a word of rebuke, his complexion had drastically changed.

–Mo Huangyun did not recognize Feng Yidao, but could he not recognize him?

He practically stayed at the camp every day, and even if Feng Yidao kept a low profile, there surely would have been opportunities to meet.

Besides, at his level of attainment, which Sky Ladder powerhouse would he not know?

He had to know, otherwise, what would happen if he unintentionally offended someone?

This wasn’t just bad for him but could even implicate the whole family.

Dammit!

Did Mo Huangyun actually provoke such an entity?

Yes, the Mo Family was astoundingly powerful, being a Nine Stars great power, but in front of a Sky Ladder Almighty, was there a difference from trash?

Moreover, Feng Yidao was among the top of the Ten Stars Almighties.

“Great-grandfather?” Seeing Mo Hong suddenly stop short, Mo Huangyun hastily urged him on.

Smack!

Mo Hong suddenly turned around and struck Mo Huangyun.

Being a Saintly Position, his strength was tremendously great, and this slap carried no small force; one could see Mo Huangyun was sent flying, flipping over in the air more than a dozen times, and then with a smack, he hit the ground.

Everyone was dumbstruck.

What was happening?

Instead of defending his junior, Mo Hong had actually administered punishment?

But why?

Mo Huangyun himself did not understand; he lay on the ground, looking up at Mo Hong with a aggrieved gaze.

Wasn’t he one of the most valued juniors of the Mo Family? Not to mention, he was indeed outstanding, having attained the Supplementing Divine Temple at just thirty, how astonishing was that?

Moreover, Mo Hong had always been very affectionate towards him, so why turned against him so suddenly?

“You little beast, if you want to die, die by yourself, don’t drag the family into this!” Mo Hong rebuked harshly, then turned and bowed to Feng Yidao, saying, “Lord Sword Emperor, this blind miscreant did not recognize your eminent authority, please forgive his offense!”

Pfft!

Suddenly, many people burst out.

What?

This man dressed as a Fisherman, was actually Sword Emperor Feng Yiqi?

The crowd could hardly believe their ears, yet how could Mo Hong possibly have misrecognized him?

Thump, thump, thump, everyone knelt down.

A Sky Ladder Almighty!

Even if not sincerely kneeling, with such a powerful being in front of them, wouldn’t their legs go weak?

Feng Yiqi then looked at Mo Hong indifferently, saying, “I’m not some big figure, being bumped is just that, being bumped, after all I suffered no loss.”

“You’re not a big shot yet?”

What an act!

Even Mo Hong couldn’t bear it–a formidable being from the Sky Ladder was offended, and yet he claimed it didn’t matter, isn’t that ironic?

Bang, Mo Hong immediately knelt down as well.

“We must calm Lord Sword Emperor’s anger, or else the Mo Family could very well be destroyed in an instant.”

Feng Yiqi shook his head. Although he was a supreme powerhouse, he naturally didn’t put on airs and wouldn’t bother with a little guy like Mo Huangyun; otherwise, he could have just cut the man down with a single stroke of his saber.

But everyone felt that a mighty being from the Sky Ladder should exude an air of superiority, placing him in an unpleasant situation.

He waved his hand, leaped up, and vanished from sight.

Out of sight, out of mind.

Shi Hao then looked at Mo Huangyun and said indifferently, “That someone, still looking for trouble with me?”

Mo Huangyun was already dumbfounded. He had dared to shout at a mighty being from the Sky Ladder; how unaware of his own demise could he be?

Although Lord Sword Emperor didn’t take it amiss, would others dare to be close to him afterward?

What if, one day, Lord Sword Emperor whimsically decided to settle accounts?

Wouldn’t those associated with him risk getting involved?

Even if Sword Emperor was magnanimous, keeping a safe distance from Mo Huangyun could never be wrong.

How could he have expected that his intention to trouble Shi Hao would put himself into such dire straits?

Now he was less concerned about Shi Hao; seeing Mo Hong’s fierce look, it was clear he was about to take him back home to face punishment.

–The Young Master of the Mo Family has offended the Sword Emperor. Just for that reason alone, how many forces would sever ties with Mo Duan?

The loss could be enormous.

It was over; he could very likely lose his position as the Mo Family heir, be cold-shouldered, and find it difficult to show his face prominently again.

Mo Hong snorted and said to Mo Huangyun, “Scum, aren’t you following me?”

Mo Huangyun, not daring to argue, obediently followed Mo Hong. After returning to the clan, who knows what punishment he would face.

It was then that everyone cautiously rose, watching Shi Hao with shocked eyes.

This kid… he actually knew Sword Emperor all along!

My goodness, that’s Feng Yiqi! The Emperor among Swords, among the mightiest in the Sky Ladder realm.

Given this connection, who would dare to trouble Shi Hao?

At least among this camp, Shi Hao could certainly strut around.

Shi Hao turned to Jiang Quan and said, “I haven’t settled accounts with you yet, and here you are provoking me again!”

Jiang Quan felt utterly frustrated.

How does Shi Hao always have nobles helping him?

He snorted and said, “Shi Hao, you are merely from the Founding King Court, whereas I belong to the Supplementing Divine Temple. How dare you disrespect me, aren’t you afraid of the academy punishing you?”

Shi Hao shook his head: “This is not the academy; you and I are merely passersby. I find you annoying right now and feel like beating you up.”

Jiang Quan scoffed, “You may have defeated Bei Yan, but that’s because Bei Yan’s cultivation was sealed, not because your strength matches the Supplementing Divine Temple!”

Shi Hao looked at Jiang Quan, silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled and walked away.

Coward!

Everyone shook their head; what was that, a threat and then he runs?

Indeed, just the Founding King Court, what else could they do in front of the Supplementing Divine Temple apart from bragging?

Watching Shi Hao’s retreating figure, Jiang Quan’s face looked very gloomy.

The little Founding King Court had threatened him, and yet he could only swallow his pride.

–Didn’t he see how much Sword Emperor appreciated Shi Hao?

What a damn guy!
