QT: Grace To Grass Counterattack System
Chapter 132 I Became A Top Cultivator With My Harem Of Beauties Beside Me 5.0He Yuan and elder Mo arrived at the Cloud peak in no time. It was breath taking. Being the largest peak in the Duoluo sect, the Cloud peak had twice the grandiose of all the other major peaks combined.
Elder Mo lowered the paper crane and both of them hopped off. Elder Mo did it quite elegantly and as for He Yuan, not so much. It was already quite unnerving for him to be so high up in the sky with no cover whatsoever.
If he'd fallen off, he would've landed straight to his grave as Mo Sheng was basically just a refined mortal and not a full fledged cultivator yet.
Elder Mo noticed his first disciple was shaking slightly but he remained quiet. Mo Sheng hardly ever rode in the sky so it was understandable that he was a bit shaken from the experience.
The both of them walked straight to the great hall and whenever a disciple stopped to greet elder Mo and glare at He Yuan in the process, He Yuan resisted the urge to glare right back at them. What was their problem?
They spotted a few disciples waiting outside the great hall in orange robes. The signature colour of the Tianmo sect. When they spotted He Yuan, they grit their teeth at him hatefully. Mo Sheng was really full of himself wasn't he?
He'd kept their sect master waiting all afternoon. If not for the fact that he was elder Mo's first disciple, they would have beaten him within an inch of his life!
He Yuan stood straighter and walked into the great hall after elder Mo. Mo Sheng had kept to himself all his life and He Yuan had thought that maybe, if he was more welcoming, then the other disciples wouldn't be so antagonizing.
The situation at the Alchemy peak had made him realize that no matter how well he behaved, the other disciples -whether from Duoluo sect or any other sect- were still going to hate him so rather than cower, it was better to lift his head high.
The great hall was very large with nine gigantic pillars made of translucent green jade and inlaid with gold runes. There were two rows of padded seats on each side that were currently occupied by the seven peak masters of the Duoluo sect on one side and the sect master of the Tianmo sect with three of his elders on the other side.
The sect master of the Duoluo sect was seated on the raised platform with six of the seven elders of the sect flanking his sides. Mo Jiu was standing in front of the platform, looking cold and mighty with Shen Mianmian by his side staring at him with heart eyes.
Once He Yuan appeared in their line of sight, the entire occupants of the hall turned to glare at him angrily.
He Yuan resisted the urge to smile. Their anger satisfied him. But... Why was Mo Jiu even here? Even though Mo Sheng's engagement was being broken, like other disciples outside, this had nothing to do with Mo Jiu and yet the others did not find it odd that he was here. It wasn't as if they knew that the man was boning Shen Mianmian.
pαпdα Йᴏνê1,сòМ One of the elders beside the Tianmo sect leader humphed and stared at the Duoluo sect leader. "Your Duoluo sect disciples are really great aren't they? Making the elders wait on them for so long, how bold."
He Yuan cupped his fists in front of him and greeted before straightening and looking to the Tianmo sect master. "Sect master Shen would have to pardon me. I was injured in the fight earlier and had to take some time to recuperate." He cupped his fists again to show his sincerity. He wouldn't be so stupid as to openly go against everyone present.
Shen Hei snorted and looked the other way. "It's good that you're self aware."
Shen Mianmian, on the other hand, narrowed her eyes at He Yuan and grit her teeth. How could Mo Sheng give such a shameless excuse? She'd only whipped him out of the platform with her whip. That little bit of injury was not enough to make him deposed.
He'd kept all of them waiting just to spite them! She looked over to Mo Jiu, feeling wronged. Mo Jiu smiled at her and signaled her to relax so she did just that. As long as her Jiu-ge understood her.
Elder Mo patted He Yuan on the back and walked over to take his seat amongst the seven elders of the Duoluo sect, patting Mo Jiu on the way too.
The Duoluo sect master, Ru Lianfeng, cleared his throat. "Mo Sheng. I received word from the Tianmo sect master that you and Shen Mianmian have made an agreement to dissolve the engagement."
All eyes turned to He Yuan once more.
"Yes, sect master." He Yuan calmly said.
Ru Lianfeng also looked at Shen Mianmian who gave her own affirmation.
Shen Hei narrowed his eyes at He Yuan. Shen Mianmian had told him that Mo Sheng was vehemently against letting her go so why was he so calm now?
Mo Jiu and Shen Mianmian were also thinking the same thing. Why was Mo Sheng so calm? It was so unusual. It couldn't be that he'd resigned himself to his fate right? If that was true, then it was good maybe then he wouldn't trouble them all the time.
The both of them exchanged glances and smiled at each other.
Next, elder Mo and Shen Hei stepped forward with their own copies of the betrothal agreement. After imbibing the slips with their spiritual power and throwing it up in the air, the slips burned to crisps and dissolved into nothingness.
That was the end of the engagement.
Shen Hei cleared his throat and smiled at elder Mo. "Even if the engagement between Mianmian and Mo Sheng did not work out. It does not mean that we can't pair up differently."
Shen Mianmian was so excited that the stars in her eyes increased as she stared at Mo Jiu. She was so happy. She could finally be with Jiu-ge openly!
The sect master of the Tianmo sect continued, "The alliance between the two sects is the most important after all. You have another disciple, a quite outstanding one I might add, how about we pair both of-"
"Stop." Elder Mo cut in with a cold glare. Did Shen Hei think he was stupid? Did all of them think that he was not aware of the reason Shen Mianmian was so desperate to break off the engagement in the first place? "The engagement between my disciple and your daughter has been called off so naturally, there is no need for us to directly interact.
-If you want to maintain the alliance with this sect then there are others for you to choose from."
Mo Jiu frowned at elder Mo's words and Shen Mianmian began to shake pitifully. "You can't do that!" She called out before she could stop herself.
The entire surroundings stilled at Shen Mianmian's brazenness and Shen Hei glared at his daughter before smiling at elder Mo ingratiatingly. Offending an Immortal ascension master was a huge mistake. If the elder decided to kill his daughter this minute, there would be nothing he could do about it.
The Tianmo sect was nothing in the face of the Duoluo sect's might. " Immortal master Mo, don't pay attention to Mianmian's words, she's just a child and did not mean any disrespect. She was just a little muddleheaded from the broken engagement."
"It was the engagement that was broken and not her head. What is she so muddleheaded for?" Elder Mo sneered. He noticed the frown on Mo Jiu's face and he was a little disappointed. Anyhow, Mo Sheng and Mo Jiu were disciple brothers. It was quite unfortunate that Mo Jiu was being so inconsiderate.
The elder turned to Shen Mianmian. Why on earth did he even agree to that betrothal in the first place? "Miss Shen, the engagement has been called off. There is no reason for you to show up on my peak anymore. If I should ever catch you, I'd break your legs." And then he directly walked out.
Shen Mian mian gasped in horror and Mo Jiu's frown increased. Shen Hei and his elders were a little dissatisfied but they could only swallow their thoughts whilst the ones from Duoluo sect exchanged bored looks with each other.
The peak belonged to elder Mo anyways so he had the right to prevent whoever he wanted from entering. They were already quite dissatisfied with Shen Mianmian's fickleness and none of them were willing to pair their disciples with her.
He Yuan wasted no time in cupping his hands to excuse himself and rushing after elder Mo. The old man was his only source of transport. If he left then he'd have no choice but to be stuck on this peak because there was no way he was going to make the journey across peaks.
"Master!" He Yuan called out when he spotted elder Mo standing right outside. It seemed the old man had been waiting for his 'handicapped' disciple after all.
