Chapter 576: Venomous Tongue Strikes Again

“Your master didn’t come?” Mo Kongyuan asked without any change in his expression.

“He has something to attend to, so he has ordered me to come and welcome all his fellow Misters instead,” replied Feng Zitian with a smile.

“Hmph, he’s putting on such great airs,” retorted Xie Wuji with a face full of displeasure.

“Great Worshipper has been very busy dealing with matters regarding the appearance of many monster beasts these past few days, so he purposely ordered us to come forth and welcome the rest of his fellow Misters,” said Ren Youran with a face piled full of smiles.

At this moment, Ren Youran had a face resembling a toad. Was there even half this amount of arrogance and confidence in him when he had first met Ling Chuxi back then? Instead, he had looked like a pitiful dog begging with his tail wagging. Thinking that this person was originally a person of Nan Xia Country, Ling Chuxi felt as miserable as if she had swallowed a fly.

“When I speak, what right do you have to interrupt me? A mere stray dog dares to simply bark in front of me.” Xie Wuji was originally already unhappy so it was just nice that he took out his anger on Ren Youran.

Amongst the five vassal countries, which country had a traitor like Ren Youran? His case had always been regarded with great shame, and to think he still had the face to appear before the guardians like this. Xie Wuji was even less shameless when interacting with such people, so naturally when he spoke, he was not the least bit courteous.

Ren Youran was stabbed right where it hurt with these words. The shade of his face alternated between red and white, yet he did not dare open his mouth to retort.

“My dear Misters, wouldn’t it be better for us to go inside first before we continue to speak? Feng Ze Country’s Mister Cao and Wan Chuan Country’s Mister Wu have already arrived,” said Feng Zitian to the group of them. Although in his heart he also scorned Ren Youran’s conduct, now, he was no matter what, considered a person of Ding Lin Country. If there were no traitors like him, Ding Lin Country was not necessarily be able to have the power it did today, so he also did not wish to see Ren Youran in too much of a difficult situation.

“Scram!” shouted Xie Wuji as he glared at Ren Youran with round wide eyes. Xie Wuji’s tall, big and majestic figure emitted an endless power.

Ren Youran was shocked into taking a few steps back, his face reddening even more. He had joined Wu Feng Hall for decades with his identity as Nan Xia Country’s number one young expert, and even Great Worshipper had never displayed such an attitude towards him. When had he ever received such great humiliation?

“Tianying, you don’t have to follow. You just return to the post house to rest. I will send people to notify you if there are any matters requiring your attention,” said Lin Cangbo to Xiao Tianying.

“The rest of you may also head back first. The matters here are of no relation to you,” Mo Kongyuan also said to Zhou Zhidong and his guards.

Zhou Zhidong was slightly stunned. When they were to travel here, the emperor had merely mentioned he was to protect and deliver Mo Kongyuan and Ling Chuxi to Ding Lin Country’s capital, but didn’t say what he was to do once he fulfilled this task. Thinking about Mo Kongyuan’s identity, Zhou Zhidong decided to return to the post house to await further news and then see how he was to proceed.

Mo Kongyuan, Xie Wuji and the rest of the remaining group walked into Wu Feng Hall with Ling Chuxi following behind Mo Kongyuan.

“Wait. Great Worshipper has only invited the Misters to join the gathering. You cannot enter.” Ren Youran was coincidentally stuffed with a stomach full of anger without a place to vent it, and when he saw Ling Chuxi actually entering together with the guardians, he put on a stern face and stretched out a hand to block Ling Chuxi’s path.

“Who are you? And what right do you have to block me? You are merely a stray dog who walked away from his own master and betrayed his country. You want to block me? It won’t ever be your turn to block me,” Ling Chuxi said discourteously. She could not take action but saying a few scolding sentences to release her hatred a little was not a bad option either. Although she really wished to slap Ren Youran’s face, at the moment, she could only hold it in.

“You terrible brat, everytime you speak, your mouth is full of gibberish,” hissed Ren Youran angrily. He was so angry that his face flushed red. Ling Chuxi’s words were practically a stab at the depths of his heart, and she threw a fistful of salt on his wound to top it off.

“Everyone in Nan Xia Country knows that I speak only the truth. They say that the number one most honest person in Nan Xia Country is me, absolutely second to none,” said Ling Chuxi sarcastically as she snorted at Ren Youran in ridicule.
