Chapter 37: Frightened Jin Guang
In addition to the credit for Dan Baijian's work, Mo Juren took out a black iron plate with the word "Xuan" from his arms and threw it to Li Feiyu, saying,
"Take this iron plate! This is a favor that Qixuanmen owes me. When necessary, give it to Wang Juechu and tell me my name. I can save your life."
Li Feiyu took marrow-extracting pills to improve his skills, but this situation cannot last long and will be exposed eventually.
He used this to gain undeserved merit and status in the Qixuan Sect. If anything went wrong, he would surely be killed.
Giving him this iron plate is the most kind thing we can do for this old friend of the Qixuan Sect.
After saying that, Mo Juren no longer looked at Li Feiyu's expression. He threw the heavy luggage on his body into the grass by the roadside and hid it. Then he activated the Shadowless Body Technique and his figure slowly disappeared into the shadows.
After witnessing this magical scene, Li Feiyu finally knew for sure that this "Han Li" was no longer a disciple of the Qixuan Sect of the same generation as him, but a top master with amazing skills.
Li Feiyu tightly grasped the package and the black iron plate in his hands, staring at the place where Han Li disappeared for a long time, and finally turned around to catch up with several Outer Blade Hall disciples in the distance and fled towards the Qixuan Gate.
After saying goodbye, Mo Juren retreated quickly with his shadowless body skills. When he appeared on the hillside again, he had completely changed and became a different person.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to disappear, Mo Juren took off Han Li's usual green robe, revealing the white robe underneath.
The bright silver mask on his face was also torn off and replaced with a human skin mask made of Mo Juren's original appearance.
After adjusting the cartilage power and the invisibility technique again, he turned into the handsome appearance of Mo Juren in his thirties or forties.
He had already put the soft steel sword back to his waist. He stood at the top of the slope with his hands behind his back without saying a word, confusing all the members of the Wild Wolf Gang. How could such a scholar in white suddenly appear?
The calm and composed middle-aged man in a plain white robe was obviously not the same person as the young doctor with the mask just now.
Soon, the crowd gathered around and welcomed their leader, the Wild Wolf Gang leader Jia Tianlong. He personally led a team of crossbowmen and quickly joined them.
From the fact that they were able to gather the crossbowmen who were forced to flee in all directions and regroup into a team, it can be inferred that the besieged negotiation team of the Qixuan Sect, including Deputy Sect Leader Wu and his entourage, should have been completely wiped out.
The pale and thin Jia Tianlong was sitting on a tall horse. After asking the people around him about the situation, he shouted loudly to the people on the slope,
"I wonder who is here to stop my Wild Wolf Gang from chasing the enemy? Are you from the Seven Mysterious Sect? Please tell me your name."
Mo Juren wanted to buy time for Li Feiyu and the others, so he didn't reply and just watched coldly.
Jia Tianlong asked several more times, and seeing that the man on the slope still didn't answer, he flicked his whip, and the crossbowmen behind him immediately stood up and shot dozens of crossbow arrows at where Mo Juren was standing.
Mo Juren had long experienced the lethality of these crossbow arrows and knew that they could not break his elephant armor skills at all. In order to establish his authority, he stood still and allowed these crossbow arrows to hit him.
After a series of crackling sounds, the crossbow arrows fell in front of Mo Juren.
A gentleman in white suddenly appeared on the battlefield, with cold eyes, silent, bare-handed, and invulnerable to swords and guns. This scene shocked all the members of the Wild Wolf Gang.
Jia Tianlong knew that there must be something fishy about the man on the slope, so he waved away the crossbowmen and clasped his hands again and said,
"Why doesn't this friend speak? Since you are unwilling to speak, it must be that leaving the Seven Mysterious Sect has nothing to do with it. Please give my Wild Wolf Gang some face and leave quickly. I will report to you later when you come to my Wild Wolf Gang headquarters."
"..."
Mo Juren still stood on the hillside like a stone man, without any response.
Seeing that the other party was so stubborn, Jia Tianlong said angrily,
"Humph! Since you don't dare to speak out, I advise you to leave quickly! Otherwise, once the 'immortal' from my Wild Wolf Gang arrives, your life will be in danger in an instant."
Before he finished speaking, a passage was made in the crowd, and Wang Baozi, deputy leader of the Wild Wolf Gang, came out on horseback and brought a "strange man".
This man was riding on a tall horse, but he was actually a middle-aged dwarf only three feet tall.
He had a big head and a small body, a face full of black beard, and was wearing a fiery red robe embroidered with gold thread. His fingers, wrists, neck, and belt were all adorned with shiny gold jewelry, making him look like a nouveau riche local tycoon.
"Master Jin Guang, you are here. Look, it is this man on the slope who ruined our Wild Wolf Gang's plan."
Jia Tianlong did not have the slightest airs of a gang leader and spoke respectfully to the red-robed dwarf.
I saw that Master Jin Guang snorted coldly, but he began to curse with disdain,
"You bunch of idiots, I promised you to come here to deal with the masters of the Seven Mysterious Sect. Why do you want me to personally take action against a random person on the street? Humph!"
In response to such scolding, Jia Tianlong and Wang Baozi could only respond in a repetitive manner, not daring to refute.
Mo Juren didn't know the origin of this "Master Jin Guang", but despite his short stature and ugly appearance, he could make Jia Tianlong and Wang Baozi treat him with such respect, so he must be very powerful.
So Mo Juren became very alert to see what tricks they were up to.
The Master Jin Guang started yelling and cursing again. After his anger subsided, he glanced up the slope and said in a loud voice,
"He is just this stinky scholar, right? He looks handsome, but he is just a mortal with nothing on the outside. He is no match for me." Jia Tianlong was afraid that the dwarf would underestimate his opponent and make a mistake, so he hurriedly reminded him.
"Master, this man is not an ordinary warrior. He is invulnerable to swords and spears, and even crossbows and arrows cannot hurt him at all. Master Jin Guang, please pay more attention to him."
But Master Jin Guang could not listen and said impatiently,
"Stop talking nonsense. I can behead him with just one strike of my flying sword. But for this strike...how much gold do you want to pay?"
"Okay, okay. As long as we can get rid of this man, my Wild Wolf Gang is willing to give an additional 100 taels of gold on top of the original 300 taels. Master, what do you think?"
When Master Jin Guang heard this, he smiled happily and said,
"Just barely. One hundred taels of gold is indeed worth it for me to make an extra effort."
Mo Juren was shocked after hearing this. Using a flying sword? It sounds like this person is also a cultivator!
He hurriedly and quietly used the divine eye technique to look at the golden light master.
Mo Juren saw several rays of light coming from Master Jin Guang's body. He carefully identified them and immediately withdrew his magic. However, he was not sure in his heart.
"The third level of Qi Refining? This cultivation level doesn't seem very high, but he dares to call himself a master? Where did he come from..."
However, from the conversation between the two, Mo Juren also understood something.
It turns out that Master Jin Guang was not the immortal cultivator behind the Wild Wolf Gang, but was hired by Jia Tianlong with gold to deal with the Qixuan Sect.
Colluding with mortals, what Master Jin Guang did should not be allowed to be seen in public.
Thinking of this, Mo Juren devised a countermeasure. He took the initiative and said,
"What an arrogant clown! You are only at the third level of Qi Refining, yet you dare to call yourself a master and cheat mortals out of their money. Do you know your crime?"
"What?!" Mo Juren pointed out Master Jin Guang's cultivation level and he felt like he was seen through in an instant.
He looked up the hillside in horror, his eyes flashing, and then he used his divine eye technique to glance at Mo Juren repeatedly.
I don't know if he could see Mo Juren's actual cultivation level, because apart from a dark shadow in his qi sea, there was no light of Dharma veins on Mo Juren's body, not even as good as the first level of Qi Refining.
Of course, there is another possibility, because as long as the cultivator with a higher level of cultivation does it intentionally, the cultivators at a lower level will not be able to see through his cultivation level.
There is a possibility that Master Jin Guang might mistake Mo Juren, who has no magical powers, for a master who is stronger than him.
But I only heard the words of the Golden Light Master.
"Who are you, you, you you...I haven't done anything that crosses the line!"
Seeing that Master Jin Guang was in a panic, Mo Juren knew that he had made the right bet.
Mo Juren once learned from Yu Zitong that generally immortal cultivators are not allowed to directly interfere in the affairs of ordinary mortals in the secular world. This is an unspoken rule among the immortal cultivators of Yue State.
If Master Jin Guang wanted to use the so-called "flying sword" to kill mortals so blatantly, it would violate some prohibitions.
So he guessed that this "Master Jin Guang" might be acting secretly in private, thinking that no other cultivators would know about it.
Besides, the flying sword is a legendary treasure that only high-level cultivators can possess. How could a mere cultivator at the third level of Qi Refining possibly wield a flying sword?
Now Mo Juren pointed out Master Jin Guang's level of cultivation in one voice and scolded him, making him think that Mo Juren had been watching him, which naturally scared him a lot.
Master Jin Guang used his Sky Eye Technique to scan the area several times and confirmed that the person on the slope was a cultivator whom he could not see through, so he hurriedly explained,
"Are you a family member here? Or are you patrolling the sect? Let me make it clear first, I have never encroached on any immortal cultivation resources here."
Mo Juren deliberately did not reply, wanting Master Jin Guang to say more so that he could deal with him better.
The members of the Wild Wolf Gang nearby were all dumbfounded, and Gang Leader Jia and Deputy Gang Leader Wang looked at each other in bewilderment.
Who would have thought that the always arrogant Master Jin Guang would suddenly become timid, like a mouse being stared at by a cat.
Seeing that Master Jin Guang had changed his previous arrogant and domineering style, the members of the Wild Wolf Gang couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the giant man opposite was really an immortal cultivator who was more powerful than Master Jin Guang?
When Master Jin Guang saw that Mo Juren did not reply, he seemed even more frightened. He rolled his eyes and said hurriedly,
"Hehe, I just took a little bit of their gold. I was just joking with these mortals."
As Jia Tianlong and the others stared in amazement, Master Jin Guang took out a bag of gold from the Wild Wolf Gang and threw it on the ground.
"Boss Jia, I'll return the deposit to you. I'll leave now if nothing else happens. Come and play with me later. Bye."
Then he turned his horse around, patted the horse and wanted to leave.
"Wait!" Mo Juren shouted again.
Master Jin Guang was so startled by this shout that he almost jumped up. He reached into his arms, looking like he was about to take out his weapon and fight to the death if he saw the situation was not going well...
Master Jin Guang is definitely a qualified initiator of immortal cultivation and the top treasure delivery team member of the mortal class! Do you agree?
