Chapter 1143: Is the Pill City Easy to Pick on?
Translator: Timothy_ Editor: mjn0898
“Susu is our Black Ice Sect’s sect member, my personal disciple. Even the Infinity Sect’s sect leader brought wedding gifts and personally came to propose. Pill king Ye, do you think just because you’re from Pill City, you can forcefully take away my Black Ice Sect member?” the old female cultivator asked.
She then looked around and saluted with her fists. “Our Black Ice Sect isn’t as powerful as Pill City, but we’re still a 9-star sect. No one can abuse us like this. I don’t care what Susu’s identity in the mortal world was, but she’s my personal disciple now. She will marry whom I want her to marry. No one can force me. Otherwise, even if I die I will maintain the authority of the Black Ice Sect.”
Everyone could tell that Fan Lianzhu’s words meant that she already believed Susu was Ye Mo’s wife, but she still dominantly believed that Ye Mo had no right to take away Susu from Black Ice Sect.
Ye Mo had some good impression of Susu’s master originally, but now that he heard this, he was furious. He got up and said coldly, “I called you qian bei because you’re Susu’s master, don’t think you’re anything special. Susu is indeed your disciple and I’m grateful you took care of her, but she didn’t sell herself to you. You have no right to decide what she wants to do. That’s Susu’s own decision to make.”
“You…” Fan Lianzh’s face was green with anger. In the cultivation realm, the respect for masters was the utmost highest. Ye Mo said he was Susu’s husband but now spoke to her like this. She almost spat blood.
Yan Guan quickly got up and said, “City lord Ye, I believe your words too. We’ll ask Beiwei later and we’ll know. But you also know that when Susu came into our sect, she hadn’t established her foundation yet. She was just with a few mortal girls. According to the rules of our cultivation realm, coming into this cultivation realm is severing off your ties to the mortal realm. Everything in the past has nothing to do with her….”
Ye Mo’s face sunk and said coldly, “So sect leader Yan means that Susu has nothing to do with me now? As for what she thinks herself, you don’t need to consider, is that right?”
Yan Guan stuttered. If someone else said this, he would immediately rebut, “So what?” but he didn’t dare to say that to Ye Mo. Ye Mo had Lu Wuhu next to him and there was Pill City supporting him. And Abstruse Sound Sect as well as Clear Dream Mosque also seemed to be supporting him.
But Lightning Cloud Sect’s sect leader Wang Chuanhe got up and said, “City lord Ye, according to the rules of the cultivation realm, after Luo Susu entered the Black Ice sect, she indeed severed off her mortal ties. Even if she was related to city lord Ye in the past, that’s the past. And the number one important thing for us cultivators after entering a sect is respecting our masters. Elder Fan is Luo Susu’s master, she does have the right to make Susu listen to her. Does city lord Ye think you can forcefully change the rules of the cultivation realm just because you’re Pill City’s honorary city lord?”
Wang Chuanhe was mocking Ye Mo as even if the two city lords of Pill City were here, they wouldn’t be able to change that rule. Even though this rule now was just for show and many disciples still returned home after cultivation and no one would care, this rule did indeed exist.
Ye Mo was furious, these guys dared to say this because his power was weak. If he was a truth realisation state cultivator, who would dare to say that? Lu Wuhu could protect him, but he wouldn’t go challenge 9-star sects. Pill City was on his side, but that rule was just. Although it didn’t make sense, it meant that they had reason on their side.
If Ye Mo forcefully pushed this rule away, even the Pill City wouldn’t be able to find a good excuse to help him.
Lu Wuhu didn’t care about this at all. Although he was with Ye Mo, his relationship with him was far from what other people thought. He just wanted to return Ye Mo’s favor as quickly as possible or there would be confinements for his cultivation. Thus, he didn’t help Ye Mo say anything at all
Luo Fei was very worried but her power was too low and wasn’t able to say anything for Ye Mo. Ji Ling was too honest and didn’t know what to say.
In that moment, Ye Mo was all by himself. Ye Mo’s heart sunk. He knew he had to have a reason to take Susu away.
If his power was strong enough, he would just say, “I’m going to break this rule, what are you going to do?” However, his power wasn’t enough to say that.
Seeing the situation go into a stalemate, a middle aged man woman got up and said, “Elder Fan is right and sect leader Wang is also right, but since sect leader Yang can propose to Black Ice Sect, so can sect leader Ye.”
This at least helped Ye Mo break the stalemate.
Ye Mo was grateful to this beautiful woman. He heard Mi Zhenjie’s sound transmission to him that this woman was 9-star sect Heaven Demon Sect’s elder Le Yao, cauldron filling state.
Ye Mo gave her a grateful look but before Ye Mo said anything that elder Fan’s words almost angered Ye Mo to attack right on the spot.
“Heaven Demon Sect’s elder Le is right, now that sect leader Yang brought such a generous proposal gift I’ve decided to marry my disciple Luo Susu into Infinity Sect.”
“Bullshit!” Ye Mo couldn’t resist the anger anymore and pointed at Fan Lianzhu cursing.
“What? City lord Ye are you going to take away Susu by force? Then I’ll tell you that sect leader Yang’s proposal gift isn’t something other people can bring out. City lord Ye, although you’re a pill king but can you concoct the Truth Realisation Pill? So give up.” Lightning Cloud Sect’s Wang Chuanhe said calmly.
He wanted to make Ye Mo more angry but with this, but Ye Mo calmed down instead. He knew his downsides, he looked glorious on the surface but he didn’t have any bargaining chips except for Lu Wuhu helping him twice.
Ye Mo suddenly sat down and said calmly, “Sect leader Wang and elder Fan, according to your words, Susu should completely listen to Black Ice Sect and not be able to make any of her own decisions?”
“Of course, we cultivators should respect our masters, how can the disciple not listen to the master?” Wang Chuanhe repeated.
But unexpectedly, Ye Mo looked at Lu Wuhu. “Brother Lu, so you tricked me before?”
Lu Wuhu looked at Ye Mo in confusion. “How did I trick you?”
Ye Mo said calmly, “Didn’t you say that Infinity Sect’s goddess Wen wasn’t happy with the husband her sect arranged for her so she would choose a husband through competition. But I just heard sect leader Wang say that she doesn’t have any right to make that proposal. Even if the Infinity Sect makes her marry a dog, it seems she just has to agree. But you told a different story. Isn’t this tricking me?”
Lu Wuhu immediately understood Ye Mo, he glared at Infinity Sect Yang Feicheng and Black Ice Sect Yan Guan saying coldly, “So the two sect leaders are here to play a joke on me. The invitiation given to me clearly says that goddess Wen is chosing her husband herself. How is it now that she has no right to choose? Do you think I’m easy to pick on?”
Yan Guan quickly saluted with his fists. “Lu qian bei, you’ve misunderstood, no matter what we wouldn’t trick Lu qian bei, goddess Wen can indeed choose her own husband.”
Yan Guan didn’t want to say it, but he had to. If he angered Lu Wuhu, even if he couldn’t annihilate the entire sect by himself, he could cause a massive slaughter here.
“Oh, then I thought too much.” Lu Wuhu nodded. He knew that was already enough to help Ye Mo.
Ye Mo sneered. “So goddess Wen can choose her husband but Luo Susu can’t. Is it because Black Ice Sect isn’t as powerful as Infinity Sect or is goddess Wen prettier than Luo Susu? Or is it that Susu is my wife and I’m the vice city lord of Pill City and the Black Ice Sect looks down on Pill City?”
Those sects supporting Ye Mo praised his retaliation.
Hearing this, Yan Guan and Fan Lianzhu’s faces looked really bad.
After no one spoke for a long time, Ye Mo suddenly slammed the table. “So the Black Ice Sect thinks the Pill City is easy to abuse? Speaking such bullshit? Brother Lu, lend me a messenger flying sword, I need to message city lord Yue, our Pill City has fallen to such a level!”
