Chapter 1094: Laughable or Not!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Jun Mo Xie! Hur hur… to actually be capable of doing such a thing on the grand opening ceremony of the Evil Monarch Manor! This Mo had truly received a great eye opening experience! What a good Evil Monarch, truly evil indeed!” Mo Wu Dao laughed mockingly and said in a graceful manner.
“Dare I ask what Palace Lord Mo means by those words?” Xi Ruo Chen instantly backed him up, knowing that Mo Wu Dao needed a second person to play along with him.
Apart from the people of the three Holy Lands, no one else would be willing to participate in the quarrels between the two great powers.
“Haha, this wine, is naturally an excellent wine! I trust that for many people, it’s likely that they would never be able to taste such excellent wine even in their entire lives! From this, we can easily see the Evil Monarch Manor’s sincerity in treating the guests.”
Mo Wu Dao said with a faint smile, and there was even some hint of a playful tone in his voice. “The flowers are also extremely precious, and just eating a single stalk of this orchid, one would gain immunity to a hundred poisons for an entire year. This could be said to be gifting an additional life to all the guests here, or perhaps even several extra lives! It’s a truly generous stroke!
“Since the Evil Monarch had been so sincere and generous in his reception, why did Brother Mo say that he was being despicable? Isn’t that being self contradictory?” Xi Ruo Chen asked with a feigned look of confusion. The two coordinated perfectly, one singing and the other harmonizing as they set up the play!
“All things in this world boost and counter each other. The fine wine and the flowers are naturally excellent treasures on their own, but once the two are merged together, the wine will be tasteless, and the flower will have no miraculous effect! With the two extreme treasures counteracting each other, it would mean that we get none of them, save for a wasted trip! Even if we only drink the wine today, and do not eat the flowers, it would still be a waste of heavenly treasures since the flowers only have an exceedingly short lifespan of three days. Once the time is missed, the flowers would lose their miraculous abilities and be wasted…”
Mo Wu Dao continued in a loud voice. “Jun Mo Xie, what is the meaning of this, using such methods to toy with all the heroes of the world?” As he said that, his eyes blazed like a pair of sharp swords as he looked upwards.
“If we drink the wine, we cannot eat the flowers. If we consume the flowers, we cannot drink the wine! You are making things deliberately difficult for everyone, as if forcing us to sit on a cushion of pins and needles! Jun Mo Xie! Could it be that this is the way your Evil Monarch Manor receives their guests?” Huyan Ao Bo stood up in rage and roared, thoroughly stirring up the rage in the hearts of all the heroes of the pugilistic world!
With two treasures before them, forcing them to choose only one. Wasn’t that simply toying with them?
It was better to be killed than to be humiliated!
Even if your Evil Monarch Manor is powerful enough to shake the world, you still cannot take the heroes of the world for a joke!
“Exactly, what is the intentions of the Evil Monarch Manor? Could it be that you feel a sense of accomplishment to toy with people like that?”
“If I knew it was like this, I would have rather not come! We gave you face by coming here, and yet you toy with us like this! Truly intolerable…”
“The Evil Monarch Manor has gone too overboard in this matter!”
“How infuriating…”
With someone leading the charge, the atmosphere in the reception hall became more and more intense. From the looks of it, the situation was going to explode soon. If that happened, the Evil Monarch Manor’s opening ceremony would forever remain a joke in the pugilistic world from now on!
Mo Wu Dao smiled calmly, a fierce glint flickering in his eyes. From the looks of the current situation, the results were already clear. No matter how the other side tried to save the situation, they would not be able to save that which had already been lost. Knowing that, he could not help but to snort in a triumphant manner.
“HAHAHA…” A long laughter rang out in the air. Following that, Jun Mo Xie’s bright voice rang out. “What a great joke! Mo Wu Dao, this Seat truly doesn’t understand. Why must your Elusive World of Immortals always use the heart of a base person to judge the actions of righteous people? Don’t you think that your current actions are very laughable? I truly wonder how the previous seniors of the Elusive World of Immortals ended up choosing you to be Palace Lord of the Elusive World of Immortals!”
As this loud laughter rang out, it instantly suppressed all the clamor in the reception hall.
“Today is the grand opening ceremony of my Evil Monarch Manor. This Seat planned everything to an extremely meticulous level, so why would such an obvious mistake be made? You said that this Seat is intending to toy with the heroes of the world? Mo Wu Dao, did you think that I, Jun Mo Xie, am a retard like you?”
“Oh? In that case, I’ll like to hear the Evil Monarch’s explanation!”
” Pei! I still need to explain to you? Anyone with half an eye could see that the Austere Heart Orchid is something that this Seat has given to all the heroes of the world to take home as a parting gift! Everyone who comes here will be able to take a stalk home. I trust that everyone can understand this much.
“As for the wine, it’s naturally for all the heroes who came here to enjoy!” Jun Mo Xie said in a disdainful manner. “Who doesn’t know that these two treasures counteracts each other? Since I could take out so many Austere Heart Orchids, would I not know about such a simple thing?”
The crowd began to discuss lowly again. Since you knew, why did you still do it like this?
“Everyone, please take note. There are eight handkerchiefs under the flower vases. There is a corner revealed for each piece, forming a flower shape. Everyone should have seen it, right?” Jun Mo Xie said in a light voice.
“There is exactly one such handkerchief for each person. The handkerchiefs are made from the silk of the Snow Silkworm from the peaks of the snow capped mountains. They are resistant to extreme colds and are incomparably tough. Any spirit herbs that you wrap with this handkerchief, even if it’s just some pill powder, will not lose its medicinal efficacy! This little gift, is also a gift from my Evil Monarch Manor, for all the heroes of this world!
“As for the Austere Heart Orchid, everyone gets a stalk. And with the Snow Silkworm handkerchiefs, is there a need to consume the flowers immediately? Everyone can keep the flower in the handkerchief and bring them away… after that, you may consume them whenever you want! Today, not only are you not barred from drinking, everyone can drink to their fills, not leaving until you are drunk! If I spell it out like that, everyone should understand, right?”
As his voice rang out, everyone instantly looked down, and in an instant, they saw the snow white handkerchiefs on the table. At first, all of them thought that the handkerchiefs had simply been placed there as decorations. Who would have thought that they were an even more precious treasure…
In that moment, all of them felt a deep sense of guilt in their hearts. The
Evil Monarch was so generous towards them, gifting them two treasures… if they added in the excellent wine, it would be three treasures! Yet, they raised their voices and stood up so rudely, nearly misunderstanding his kind intentions… that was really too much of them, ah…
But if they wanted to blame the other party for not explaining things properly in the first place… that was even worse! Since the other party had already placed everything on the table for them, it was clearly meant as a gift for them. If they wanted to blame someone, they could only blame themselves for being too rash and impatient…
Otherwise, what was the point of trying to offend them like that? Could it be that he was really trying to declare war on all the heroes of the world? What kind of logic was there in that…
“Mo Wu Dao, Palace Lord Mo, tell me… are you not laughable?” Jun Mo Xie’s voice rang out again. But this time, it seemed to contain a bit more rage. “My Evil Monarch Manor put in so much effort, and because were concerned about the lives of the heroes of the world, we did not mind the heavy expenditure, showing everyone the greatest amount of respect. But you three Holy Lands, are actually slandering us while trying to turn the other heroes against us as well? Mo Wu Dao! You… what are your intentions? Do you have nefarious designs against our Evil Monarch Manor? Or… are you scheming against all the heroes of the world? This Seat is requesting Palace Lord Mo to give a proper reply right now! Do not try to twist your words anymore!”
What are your intentions?
Faced with such a direct question, even with Mo Wu Dao’s deep scheming mind and strong mental ability, he could not help but to be flustered momentarily!
It was originally a situation where the opponent should have no ways of coming back from. How did it end up like this?
It was a feeling of the heavens and earth flipping over on him!
Sensing the unkind gazes from all around, Mo Wu Dao suddenly felt a strange sense of alarm that he hadn’t felt in a long time! It was a feeling as if things were no longer in his grasp…
This was a feeling that he had forgotten long ago in his life. The last time he felt like this was an extremely long time ago. At least, a situation that made him feel like that had not happened ever since he assumed the role of the Palace Lord of the Elusive World of Immortals.
A Palace Lord of a Holy Land, using words to vilify others…
And under the countless gazes of the heroes of the world, being exposed on the spot and left with no way to retort…
Such a feeling of embarrassment was surely very hard to accept!
“Hur hur, Manor Lord Jun is truly far sighted and planned well enough.” As expected, Mo Wu Dao was a peak level character who was able to let go quickly enough. Laughing self mockingly, he said. “So it seems that Manor Lord had a purpose for designing things this way. This Mo had been careless, and made a mistake; I apologize. May Manor Lord not take offense seeing that I had only questioned thus in consideration of all the heroes present. Hur hur.. the Evil Monarch is truly an Evil Monarch as expected! This kind of breath of spirit is truly extraordinary, ah.”
That sentence of him was hinting that the current situation had been a trap that Jun Mo Xie had specifically designed for him to fall into. But directly following that, he had admitted his mistake in a direct manner, admitting that he had fallen into Jun Mo Xie’s scheme. After that, he used the excuse of acting on behalf of the welfare of the crowd to justify himself. Finally, he even retaliated in a soft manner, saying, ‘You paid such a large price, just to trap me once. Was it worth it?’
Mo Wu Dao’s attitude changed in an instant. Although he still managed to give others a feeling as if he was open and aboveboard, he had still clearly fallen into a disadvantageous position!
Counting the other incident at the gate, Mo Wu Dao had already lost twice in a row! This seemingly petty war of the tongue actually had huge influences! At least, with regards to their standing in the eyes of these people in the hall right now, there would be a lot of difference!
Because this time, the three Holy Lands’s three Palace Lords had joined hands and still failed! And not only had they failed, they had been forced to apologize in public! In the eyes of all the heroes of the world, this was an exceptionally inconceivable thing!
With regards to the path that they would take and the positions of their families, whom they should lean towards, everyone would deliberate more on such things in after this event…
“Palace Lord Mo is the leader of the Elusive World of Immortals, one of the three Holy Lands. No matter how lavish our reception is, it would never suffice. So this Seat needs to worry that the quality of our reception is not high enough!” Jun Mo Xie’s voice rang out with a sincere pride as he continued coldly. “For the sake of Palace Lord Mo, and the sake of the Holy Lands, any sacrifice is worth it.”
Jun Mo Xie’s words sounded as if he was putting the three Holy Lands on a very high pedestal, but in truth, it contained the complete opposite meaning. As for this meaning, all those who had the qualifications to come here were naturally not idiots. Anyone of them could easily hear the hidden meaning.
I’m not doing this because of you; it’s because of the three Holy Lands! As long as I can land a blow on you, I will spare nothing! Even if I’m throwing more wealth away, even if I really had to sacrifice something, so what? This daddy can afford to lose this wealth!
As long as it’s a problem that can be solved with money, it isn’t a problem! No matter how shocking the price tag is, it isn’t considered a loss at all. Just a tiny portion of the profits from Fatty Tang Yuan is already more than enough to cover all the losses!
Can your three Holy Lands match this?
