Chapter 765: Crushing the Arrogant Youth
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Young man, are you sure you want to die?”
The old man had not expected Mo Wen to dare to try and stop him. Clearly, the youth did not know his abilities. A frightening aura exuded from his body and the temperature in the office dropped. Then, a terrifying force descended upon everyone in the office.
The faces of Han Jiangong, Shen Jing’s adoptive parents, and the other normal people paled. They became so cold that they started to tremble. It felt as though there was a stone pressing on their hearts, and the pressure was so strong that it felt as though they would vomit blood but were unable to at the same time.
All this was happening to them although the old man had concentrated 90 percent of his pressure on Mo Wen. If he had not been, the normal people would not have been able to cope with the pressure of an ancient martial art practitioner of the later stage of the Embryonic Breathing Realm. They would have exploded and died immediately.
With 90 percent of the pressure concentrated on Mo Wen, even the air surrounding him was slightly distorted. Beneath him, the ground was starting to crack and the cracks were extending outwards.
However, the old man who was releasing the terrifying energy was astounded. Mo Wen simply stood on the spot without a reaction. He smiled as he extended a hand and easily blocked him as if he did not feel anything at all.
With 90 percent of his energy concentrated on a person, even a later stage Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioner should not be able to withstand it, much less a youth. Yet, this youth had no reaction to it at all. What was going on? Where had he gone wrong? The old man even suspected that he was hallucinating.
“You...” The old man referred to as Uncle Hu sensed something unusual about the situation. Everyone but this youth could feel the wrath of his pressure.
Mo Wen’s mouth turned up into a mocking smile. Without a word, he simply extended a hand towards the old man’s neck. His action was so slow that even a child would be able to escape it. However, in the next moment, the old man’s eyes widened, and they were filled with disbelief and fear.
He had felt an invisible force lock him in place. The force made his entire body grow cold and he could not do anything to resist it. He stood frozen on the spot and could not move, no matter how much he wanted to. Mo Wen’s hand successfully grasped his neck. Then, Mo Wen lifted him up.
Everyone in the office was gaping at the sight before them. The people from the Crimson Star Sect, especially, looked as though they had seen a ghost.
stage of the Embryonic Breathing Realm and even some sect leaders were not a match for him. Now, he was actually helpless at the hands of a young man. Like a toy, he had no strength to resist at all. How could it be happening? Could it be an illusion?
Fan Junsheng was in the state of greatest disbelief. Uncle Hu was not well-liked in Crimson Star Sect because of his odd temper, vengefulness and weird disposition. He did not really get along with people. However, he was one of the top 20 sect elders of Crimson Star Sect because of his abilities.
Uncle Hu had a similar personality to Fan Junsheng. They were both arrogant. Hence, Uncle Hu liked to spend time with him and protect him. With Fan Junsheng’s caliber, he would not be deserving of such protection if this was not the case.
All along, Fan Junsheng had a very good understanding of Uncle Hu’s abilities. Since Uncle Hu had become his protector, every situation he faced could be settled easily.
It was not just some of the average ancient martial art practitioners that could not take on Uncle Hu. Even the sect leaders of some mid-tier sects could not go against him. Often, they were timid and respectful in front of Uncle Hu. That was also why a good for nothing ancient martial art practitioner like Fan Junsheng dared to be so arrogant and bossy. When faced with the Ghost Physicians Hu Clan and Dafang Sect, he dared to shame them endlessly and not value them at all. It was all out of habit.
It was not just Fan Junsheng and the other Crimson Star Sect people who were stunned by what Mo Wen was doing. Even Hu Tianfeng and Lin Qing got the shock of their lives. A respectable ancient martial art practitioner in the later stage of the Embryonic Breathing Realm was not even a match for Mo Wen. Since when had Mo Wen become so strong?
Lin Qing did not know Mo Wen’s potential and abilities at all. Hence, it was expected It made sense that she would be very shocked. However, although Hu Tianfeng knew of Mo Wen’s abilities, he also flabbergasted. Their sect leader was so much stronger than before. Could it be that he had already broken through into the Golden Elixir Realm?
With that thought, Hu Tianfeng heaved a huge sigh of relief. If their sect leader had truly broken through to the Golden Elixir Realm, they would no longer have to be so afraid of Crimson Star Sect anymore.
“Very soon, you will learn who is supposed to be the fearful one.” With a casual toss, Mo Wen threw Uncle Hu out of the office. He did not take any further action immediately. After all, they were in Han Jiangong’s office and there were cameras all over the hospital. It would not be appropriate for him to do things that were too drastic.
“You... you dare... offend Crimson Star Sect...” Fan Junsheng was utterly terrified. His face was pale as he pointed at Mo Wen and stuttered. Now that Uncle Hu was not a match for this youth, he could only think of Crimson Star Sect as his protection.
“I thought you wanted to make my life a living hell? I will let you have a taste of that instead.”
Mo Wen’s mouth curled up into a mocking smile. With a simple extension of his hand, Fan Junsheng’s body flew up into the air and fell back down to land beside Mo Wen. Mo Wen clapped his hands gently. Physically, Fan Junsheng did not feel a thing.
However, an intense fear permeated his heart. He knew the techniques of ancient martial art practitioners. Who knew what Mo Wen had done to his body?
“Everyone, get lost.”
The group of stunned Crimson Star Sect people all flew up into the air and were thrown viciously out of the office and into the corridor.
The doctors and nurses who had witnessed the sight all got a huge shock as they did not know what had happened. It was a good thing that Han Jiangong reacted fast and immediately dispersed the crowd.
“Uncle Hu, are you okay?”
Fan Junsheng let out a painful cry and did not have time to complain about the pain before he saw that there was something not quite right with Uncle Hu’s expression. He was so afraid that he quickly climbed up and ran to his side.
Uncle Hu’s face was very pale at the moment, and his body could not stop trembling. His grey hair had suddenly turned completely white, and it looked as though he had aged by decades. His cultivation that he had trained for tens of years had instantly been taken away.
“You... so cruel...” Uncle Hu’s finger was trembling as he pointed it at Mo Wen. There was hatefulness in his eyes. He realized that his cultivation had been completely stripped away. Just what kind of technique was it that could silently and swiftly strip him of his cultivation like that? This youth was so vicious.
“I have more vicious things lined up. I will use your words against you. Let’s see who has the last laugh. You think you are all so high and mighty, and you even dare to stick your nose into Shen Jing’s business. Since your Crimson Star Sect is so adamant on protecting this little b*stard, I will get rid of your entire sect as well,” Mo Wen said coldly. Shen Jing had been forced into such a corner that she had felt it necessary to consume poison in order to kill herself. Yet, even before he could get angry, these group of people actually dared to come looking for him. Did they think that he was a pushover?
“Just you wait. You will pay for everything that you have done today. I can assure you that you will die a terrible death. For sure...” Uncle Hu’s expression was contorted with anger. If not for the fact that he had been stripped of his cultivation, he would have clashed with Mo Wen directly.
“Mo Wen, my sister will definitely not let you off for shaming me like that. Crimson Star Sect will not let you off either.” Fan Junsheng glared at Mo Wen like a venomous snake. Then, he supported Uncle Hu’s arm as he hobbled out of the hospital. None of the henchmen of Crimson Star Sect dared say a word. Their minds had gone blank. Their respectable Sect Elder of Crimson Star Sect had actually been stripped of his cultivation in public. It was no longer just a matter of losing face. If their sect leader found out, they would not come to a good end as well.
“Sect Leader, have you already broken through into the Golden Elixir Realm?”
Once the people of Crimson Star Sect had left, Hu Tianfeng immediately approached Mo Wen with a shining look in his eyes. He must now be in the Golden Elixir Realm. If not, how could it be that a later stage Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioner was not even a match for him?
Mo Wen nodded his head. He had no intention to hide it from them. All of Lin Qing’s earlier discouragement and advice had been because there was a gap in communication. If they had known of his ability earlier, there would not have been such an unnecessary exchange of nonsense.
“That’s wonderful.” When Hu Tianfeng heard that, he gripped his fists tightly and there was immense happiness in his eyes. He was very clear about what an ancient martial art practitioner with the Golden Elixir Realm meant. It was precisely because the Crimson Star Sect had an ancient martial art practitioner of the Golden Elixir Realm as their leader that they had the upper hand and others were deterred from offending them.
Once a sect had a Golden Elixir Realm ancient martial art practitioner, it was equivalent to the entire sect being upgraded to the top positions. They would be in the top position not just within the series of three big mountain ranges, but in the entire world of ancient martial arts.
Moreover, the fact that their Golden Elixir Realm ancient martial art practitioner was so young meant that there were limitless possibilities for them. Hu Tianfeng seemed to see a promising light at the end of the tunnel for them. His choice of Mo Wen as their leader was probably the best decision he had ever made.
“The Golden Elixir Realm! You are such a peculiar talent!” Lin Qing’s face was filled with disbelief as she looked at Mo Wen. Wasn’t Mo Wen only of the Qi Nucleation Realm not long ago? How could he suddenly just break through to the Golden Elixir Realm in the blink of an eye! The speed was just unbelievable. This had already exceeded the ability of a genius. He was simply a wizard at it.
Her Cultivation of the Goddess Technique was considered to be very amazing already. She had jumped directly to the Embryonic Breathing Realm and the process had been very smooth. She would even be able to reach the Golden Elixir Realm within a shorter period of time. But although her progress was amazing, it could not compare to how shocking Mo Wen’s process had been.
After the Crimson Star Sect people had left, only Han Jiangong, Mo Wen and the rest remained, as well as Shen Jing’s adoptive parents.
At the moment, the two of them were standing on the spot like fools. Even after a long time had passed, they could not utter a word. The earlier scene had been simply too shocking for them. Although they had known of ancient martial art practitioners after meeting Fan Junsheng, they had thought that Fan Junsheng was already the strongest presence in that world. They never even entertained the thought that there could actually be someone even stronger than him.
“You guys are Shen Jing’s adoptive parents?” Mo Wen walked towards them and asked coldly.
“Yes... We didn’t want to come and create any trouble. It was Fan Junsheng who forced us to come...”
The two of them were so frightened that their faces had gone pale and they were trembling on the spot. They were afraid that Mo Wen would do something to them. Legend had it that those ancient martial art masters could kill people without blinking an eye.
“Humph. Considering that you both raised Shen Jing, I will not make things difficult for you; however, in future, take it that you no longer have Shen Jing as your daughter,” Mo Wen said vehemently as he glared at them. These two people no longer had the right to be parents.
