Chapter 575: You Are Not Worthy
CHAPTER 575: CHAPTER 575: YOU ARE NOT WORTHY
"Mo Buwen, I don’t understand what you’re saying. I acted according to your orders, how did it become a plot against you?" Mu Lingchen looked at Mo Buwen with a half-smile and said.
"Mu Lingchen, betraying your master and disregarding righteousness, you’re courting death." A cold light flashed in Mo Buwen’s eyes, filled with murderous intent.
Mu Lingchen burst into laughter, full of disdain: "Betraying my master? Since when did I ever recognize you as my master? Following you was for the greater good, not to be your henchman. You’re taking yourself too seriously."
Mo Buwen’s face twisted: "Mu Lingchen, though you’re a renowned young powerhouse, you shouldn’t be insolent in my presence. If I want to kill you, it would be as easy as crushing an ant."
"Mo Buwen, you’re truly a beast." Mu Lingchen pointed at Sha Wuqiu and the others, "In front of these people, you grovel like a dog. Yet, facing your own compatriots, you act all high and mighty, even using them as stakes. Are you still human?"
"Trash like you expecting my loyalty, did you drink mad dog urine and become delusional?"
Sha Wuqiu was initially furious, but when he saw Mu Lingchen completely dismiss Mo Buwen, a sinister smile appeared on his face: "Mo, it seems your authority in front of your subordinates is not even comparable to that of a common thug leader."
Mo Buwen’s eyes were sinister and filled with killing intent.
"Mo brother, your ability to manage your subordinates is truly lacking, huh?" the Flower Demon said with a teasing smile.
Nan Zaixu watched coldly, eyes full of mockery.
Mo Buwen’s gaze was venomous like a Poison Snake, looking at Sha Wuqiu: "Sha, this person killed your beloved general. So, I’ll personally take his head to avenge your general."
Sha Wuqiu laughed sinisterly: "If you kill him, I can overlook what just happened."
His beloved general was only in the mid-Golden Core stage, while Mu Lingchen was at the Great Perfection of Golden Core, making this deal worthwhile.
Mo Buwen looked at Mu Lingchen coldly: "I’ll make you understand the consequences of betraying me."
"Betraying you? Let me make something clear, I never followed you, so how can I betray you? The only person I follow is Qin Yi. And you, are not worthy of my allegiance," Mu Lingchen laughed coldly.
Mo Buwen sneered, "Qin Yi was my close friend. If he knew you were someone who betrays his master, he’d probably kill you himself."
"Pff, you should know your limits. Do you really think someone as vile as you can call yourself Qin Yi’s friend? With the atrocious acts you’ve done, if Qin Yi knew, you’d be the first to be crushed."
"Say whatever you want. Qin Yi’s fall gave you the chance to betray. I’ll take Qin Yi’s place to clean the house."
Mu Lingchen laughed heartily: "What are you even, that you think you can represent Qin Yi, do you deserve it?"
"Mo brother, honestly, you’ve gone too far. Subordinates need to be cherished so that they’re worth following. If I were them, I wouldn’t want to follow you either," the Flower Demon beamed with a bright smile.
"Shut up, the life and death of my subordinates are for me to decide. Stop trying to sow discord here. Since they follow me, their lives are mine. Even if I kill them all, it won’t benefit you," Mo Buwen retorted.
The Flower Demon pursed her lips in grievance, looking at Wu Zhao: "Wu Zhao brother, look how fierce he is. I was just speaking up for the young talents of Longxia."
Wu Zhao looked at the Flower Demon affectionately, smiling as he spoke: "Flower Demon sister, he’s just like you, seeming human on the surface, but really a beast inside. To put it bluntly, you’re both devils in human disguise. So I think, you’re like crows on a pig, who are we to call each other black?"
The Flower Demon was stunned, staring blankly at Wu Zhao. After a long pause, her eyes suddenly reddened, about to cry: "Wu Zhao brother, how can you say that?"
Wu Zhao sneered: "Flower Demon, stop pretending. We all know very well what the three of you are."
The Flower Demon paused, tears still on her face, but her gaze gradually turned venomous, glaring at Wu Zhao.
"Yes, that’s more like you," Wu Zhao sneered.
"Hey, I was wondering how you two have been mistreating these young talents," Nan Zaixu said, looking entertained, then addressed the talents present: "If they treat you poorly, you’re welcome to follow me anytime. I’m always sincere with my subordinates, as Xiahou can testify."
Xiahou Jun replied indifferently: "Yes, quite sincere. If you didn’t have a keen eye, people might really think he’s human."
Nan Zaixu’s smile froze, looking incredulously at Xiahou Jun.
Xiahou Jun sneered, then raised his voice: "Everyone, follow orders, move out."
Clatter!
Of the top hundred ranks, minus Murong Qianxun, the remaining ninety-nine were all here, responding in unison.
A dozen people protected those Longxia women. The others quickly joined Xiahou Jun, Wu Zhao, and Mu Lingchen.
Nan Zaixu, Mo Buwen, Flower Demon... were momentarily unable to react.
After a while, the three realized that these people had actually betrayed them, and they exchanged glances full of killing intent.
"Hahaha..." Sha Wuqiu began to laugh loudly after his realization: "Who would’ve thought, the Longxia people are so divided, it’s truly a good show."
Refiners from the Wolf Country, Southern Country, and Li Country were all filled with schadenfreude, looking thoroughly entertained.
"Xiahou Jun, seems you’ve been planning this all along?" Nan Zaixu said coldly.
Xiahou Jun sneered: "If we didn’t pretend to follow you, how could we have seen your inhumane nature? You carry the blood of Longxia, you’re people of Longxia, yet you harm your own compatriots. If I truly followed you, wouldn’t that be aiding the enemy? Such heinous things cannot be done by humans like us."
Mo Buwen brimmed with murder: "I thought being young talents, you’d be very smart. Who knew you’d be so stupid? Do you think being united can make you invincible against the four of us?"
This time, the three who came brought only the top ninety-nine young talents. Only Mo Buwen brought his confidant Cheng Ju, and with Xiahou Jun and others suddenly turning hostile, they were left with only four people. Yet none dared to underestimate these four, who were all Nascent Soul Realm powerhouses.
Nan Zaixu said coldly: "You all are courting death."
Xiahou Jun scoffed disdainfully: "We’re just afraid it’s you who will meet your end."
"Though only four in number, you know our cultivation is far above yours. To a Qi Refiner, it’s as if you’re separated by mountains. Even combined, you’re not enough for the four of us to kill," Mo Buwen’s aura soared, murderous intent rising.
"Mo Buwen, Nan Zaixu, Flower Demon... if you need help, for a price we would gladly lend a hand," Sha Wuqiu said with a cheerful smile.
Nan Zaixu’s eyes were icy: "No need, killing ants is merely a matter of lifting a hand."
