Chapter 6224 - You're Quite Arrogant!

“Look at this, what grand competition among heroes, what wealth and glory; a coffin is your eternal home.” Mo Nian looked at the coffin before him, shook his head, and sighed, as the vision behind him slowly disappeared. It was over; the elite powerhouses of the demon clan were annihilated, all being taken into that eerie coffin, their life and death unknown. Many demon clan powerhouses were still present, but because they lacked the strength, they didn’t qualify to participate in the battle just now, thus inadvertently avoiding disaster. “Whoosh...” Suddenly, Mo Nian took out a handful of paper money from his bosom and scattered it into the air. As the paper money fluttered, Mo Nian solemnly chanted: “Dust returns to dust, earth returns to earth. The sea of desire ebbs and flows, beings suffer. Today I send you to the Yellow Springs, atonement for sins in this life, redemption in the next. The journey to the Yellow Springs is arduous, three roads head southwest. The path ahead is straight, do not look back; from henceforth, never return to the mortal realm...” “Swish... swish...” As he spoke, Mo Nian circled the coffin, casting money, three circles to the left and three to the right, before waving his large hand and collecting the coffin. He turned his head towards the demon clan powerhouses, who were immediately terrified, their scalps tingling, hair standing on end, feeling as if they were plunged into an icy abyss. However, Mo Nian ultimately ignored them and instead looked towards the White Emperor City side. Some of the powerhouses there were also quite frightened. Mo Nian was indeed strong, but his way of fighting was truly terrifying. If Mo Nian had slaughtered these people on the spot, dyeing the sky with blood and leaving corpses strewn everywhere, they wouldn’t be scared. But when these people were forced into a coffin, and upon opening it, the inside was pitch black, it was truly terrifying. Moreover, the terrified screams of those powerhouses as they entered the coffin only added to the fear. “Little brother...” At this moment, Mo Nian looked towards a burly man wielding two battle axes. Among the crowd just now, he was the only one who dared to risk his life to help Mo Nian. This man seemed to be of simple mind. When Mo Nian called him, he immediately snapped out of his shock, exclaiming excitedly: “Master Mo, you... are too strong.” “A trivial matter, little brother. You are commendable; at the critical moment, you stepped up. Just for that, you are much better than those cowards...” Mo Nian said, pausing deliberately to glance at the White Emperor City’s lord, causing the faces of the powerhouses there to darken. “Master Mo, you should leave quickly. You've killed so many people; their ancestors will soon arrive, and I'm afraid there will be late-Emperor stage powerhouses descending...” the burly man with the battle axes hurriedly said. Mo Nian interrupted him, saying, “Meeting is fate. I have no gift for you, so I’ll give you a coffin!” “Bang” As he spoke, a coffin appeared before the man, and he almost burst into tears, not knowing whether from gratitude or fear: “Master Mo, this...” “This is a cultivation artifact. Lying inside to cultivate will yield twice the result with half the effort,” Mo Nian explained. The man was half-believing, half-doubting, and cautiously lifted a corner of the coffin. When he saw the Emperor Source inside through the gap, his heart pounded wildly. “Thank you, Master Mo.” The man’s voice trembled with excitement. “Quickly leave here!” Mo Nian advised. The man was puzzled, not understanding why Mo Nian wanted him to leave immediately, but he obediently collected the coffin and ran off. He didn’t know that human hearts are treacherous. Mo Nian’s words had offended everyone on the White Emperor City side. He was the only one willing to help Mo Nian, making him stand out too much. To sum it up: when corruption becomes the norm, innocence itself is a crime. If he stayed here, he might lose his life. “Mo Nian, what do you mean by those words just now? The grievances between you and the demon clan were instigated by you, and naturally, you should resolve them yourself. Others helping you is a favor; not helping is their duty. Harboring resentment for this shows your narrow-mindedness,” the White Emperor City lord spoke, his tone icy. Mo Nian stood with his hands behind his back, coldly staring at the White Emperor City lord, a mocking smile appearing on his lips: “The eight great human cities, only White Emperor City was challenged by the demon clan. Isn’t this obvious? If it wasn’t for your tacit approval and support from the Brahma Pill Valley behind you, how could they be so arrogant? These guys just now kept calling us ants and blood food, and you didn’t even dare to fart. Isn’t that being a coward?” “You’re quite arrogant, young man!” The White Emperor City lord’s face darkened, and murderous intent surged in his eyes. “No, no, no, I’m not arrogant at all; at least I didn’t extort three thousand jin of Nine Heavens Void Silver from you!” Mo Nian shook his head. “You...” Mo Nian’s words caused all the powerhouses in White Emperor City to gnash their teeth. They had always remembered being extorted by Long Chen. Although the money was paid by the Longteng Business, it was White Emperor City’s face that was lost. Unfortunately, the city lord at the time was Bai Tianhua, and facing Long Chen then, he had no choice but to swallow his anger. Now, with Mo Nian picking at their scars, the anger in their hearts was instantly ignited, and their gazes at Mo Nian were like sharp swords. “White Emperor City’s resolve is weak, its stance is unstable, always trying to curry favor with all major forces, not wanting to offend anyone. In reality, this is the most foolish thing. When White Emperor City is isolated, you will no longer have a single friend,” Mo Nian said calmly. “Hahaha...” The White Emperor City lord laughed in anger: “Does my White Emperor City need a junior like you to worry?” Mo Nian shook his head, “You people are leading White Emperor City step by step into a dead end for your own benefits. By then, the first to die will be you, and all the benefits you received will have to be returned. I’m saying this just to remind the people of White Emperor City. After all, heaven has the virtue of cherishing life, and some things must be said. White Emperor City has no hope now. If you want to live, find another place to reside.” “Spreading lies to confuse the public, you’re seeking death!” Mo Nian’s words thoroughly angered the White Emperor City lord. His words were highly provocative, which was extremely unfavorable for White Emperor City. You must know that countless powerhouses were gathered here, and Mo Nian’s words would soon spread throughout the city. “Clang” A long sword unsheathed, the sharp sword intent changed the color of the sky and earth, and Bai Yingtian pointed the sword at Mo Nian, coldly shouting: “My White Emperor City is guarded by the divine emperor’s heroic spirit; how dare you desecrate the divine city? If I let you go today, where would White Emperor City’s honor be? Where would the divine emperor’s dignity be? Today, unless you kneel before the divine emperor’s statue and repent, you won’t leave here alive.” “Oh my, the number one prodigy of White Emperor City is going to take action.” Someone exclaimed, but the strong from the White Emperor City faction erupted in thunderous cheers, clearly hoping Bai Yingtian would slay Mo Nian and display divine might. “Honor? Dignity?” Mo Nian’s mouth curled into a mocking smile, “You’ve all become dogs for the Great Brahma, and you’re talking to me about honor and dignity? Are you trying to make me die of laughter?” “Seeking death” Bai Yingtian’s face changed, the sword trembled, Emperor Flame surged, about to strike. “Boom” Suddenly, the void shattered, space was confined, and violent Emperor Might radiated. “It’s a late-Emperor stage powerhouse.” Someone exclaimed. “You damned human brat, release the people now.” “Buzz” A giant hand pierced through the void, slamming down towards Mo Nian.
