Otherworldly Evil Monarch Chapter 918 - Please Don't Stand On Ceremony!

Qiao Ying gritted her teeth and stared at him seriously. “Jun Mo Xie, don’t you f*ck around with this thing! I solemnly ask of you—you must! You must… take good care of it! Even if you don’t know how to nurture it, you need to at least let it continue staying in this box. As long as it’s in a place with rich Spiritual Qi, it will be able to stay alive… If you really can’t take care of it… you must send it back to me! Can you do that?”

Towards the end, her voice even carried a hint of begging. Such an att.i.tude was like a mother sending her precious daughter off to be married…

Jun Mo Xie could feel the sincerity in her words, and he straightened his face and replied seriously. “Don’t worry; the next time you see it, I guarantee that it will be doing much better than it is now!”

The little lotus in his hand swayed its transparent leaves lightly, seemingly bidding farewell to Qiao Ying. In that instant, she felt a sour feeling in her heart, and tears welled up in her eyes.

At the same time, Jun Mo Xie’s keen senses detected that a small section of the water in the center of the pond had sunk down, as though the water had been drained into an invisible bowl. As for the water around the center, it did not even so much as ripple.

After a long time, the entire pond finally resumed its previous calm.

“It’s actually some near solidified spiritual liquid…” Jun Mo Xie felt a shock in his heart. From the looks of it, this was some very good stuff. Furthermore, this good stuff was something that belonged to the three Holy Lands… what rights did they have to keep it all to themselves? That in itself was a kind of crime!

Right now, there was only himself and Qiao Ying here. It was simply a G.o.d given opportunity ah. It would be a waste not to pilfer some…

Quickly deciding on his course of action, he raised his head and looked into the distance. “The Spiritual Qi in this place is truly enviable ah. Look, the Spiritual Qi in that area is so thick that it even congealed into a dense mist. To be able to cultivate in such a place… keke, your Heaven Saint Palace truly makes me jealous…”

Qiao Ying turned around and looked over, smiling lightly as she wiped the tear from her eyes. “Young Master Jun seems to have seen wrongly this time. That’s not Heaven Earth Spiritual Qi over there, but the mist of dusk. The sky is going to turn dark soon.”

In the swift moment that she turned around, Jun Mo Xie instantly activated the Power of Water. In an instant, a third of the Spiritual Qi condensed water in the pond disappeared by a third into the Hongjun PaG.o.da…

Scratching his head awkwardly, he coughed. “Ah? Is that so? I’ve actually been mistaken… hehehe…”

Qiao Ying smiled lightly, similarly feeling somewhat awkward. So it turns out that this scoundrel still has some boyish charm in his bones… That shy and awkward laugh of his just now was truly somewhat cute…

Pleased with his successful theft, Jun Mo Xie began to examine the Exquisite Lotus in his hand with an excited smile on his face.

As he observed the little plant carefully, he saw countless fine silk-like root hairs floating under it. In the center, there was a pathetically tiny jade lotus root. There wasn’t any particular smell coming from it, but as it sat in his hand, he could feel a natural comfortable and refres.h.i.+ng feeling surge through his heart…

With a flick of his hand, the Exquisite Lotus disappeared into the Hongjun PaG.o.da. Noticing Qiao Ying’s astonished gaze, Jun Mo Xie shrugged his shoulder and blinked his eyes innocently. “It’s a secret!”

Qiao Ying snorted lightly and turned away. However, her heart was somewhat relieved. Jun Mo Xie has endless mysterious techniques, so it actually might be possible for him to raise the Exquisite Lotus…

After this, Jun Mo Xie’s true sneaky operations began. Because he had Wu Shan Yun’s promise, all the spirit herbs of the Mount Heaven Saint were now his for the picking!

And this fellow was a person who didn’t know how to stand on ceremony. He simply thought to himself that this was the only time he would come to this place in this lifetime. If he didn’t take the chance to take everything he could, when would he do it? Moreover, the Hongjun PaG.o.da was something that could most likely even fit the entirety of this world and still have s.p.a.ce remaining. Without any reservations remaining, he widened his eyes excitedly.

Of all the spirit herbs on Mount Heaven Saint and the natural treasures, he specifically chose only the older ones. The same went for the spirit trees and plants; he didn’t let anything off. Whatever he liked, he would hang a small piece of red cloth to signify his owners.h.i.+p.

When Wu Shan Yun agreed to his request back then, it was because he saw that this fellow had come completely empty handed. Even if they gave him a few cloth sacks to carry the stuff, how many could he take away? They were just pretending to be generous…

If Wu Shan Yun knew that Jun Mo Xie had such a perversely overpowered treasure that could fit a near unlimited amount of stuff inside, he would never agree even if he were beaten to death. Even if he’d agreed, he would definitely go back on his words.

Therefore, Jun Mo Xie only went ahead to choose now, marking the stuff with a piece of red cloth. On the day that he was leaving, he would take everything away together…

One thing was for certain. After Jun Mo Xie left this time, Wu Shan Yun would certainly spit out a mouthful of blood…

The people on the mountain simply looked on with interest, with an att.i.tude as though they were only watching an interesting show. A single tree of tens of thousand years old has roots that stretch for unknown depths into the mountain! You want to take it away? The thought is nice, but can you even move it?

Even the spirit herbs had roots which were embedded deeply in the ground. If one wanted to dig them out, it would still require great care to do so. Could it be something that you could take just as you please? This little fellow was simply daydreaming.

So what if you hung a red ribbon on it? These things are still a part of Mount Heaven Saint! Not to mention one red ribbon; even if you wrapped it up in red ribbons, it would still be useless!

Jun Mo Xie toiled for two days straight, while everyone sn.i.g.g.e.red and looked on coldly from the side as the idiot ran to and fro. From time to time, someone would laugh aloud and ask him with interest: “Jun brat, how many have you picked?”

At these times, Jun Mo Xie would always smile and scratch his head in an honest manner, replying happily, “I’ve picked quite many haha… there’s really so many stuff here ah…”

“Feel free to pick as many as you want hahaha… Don’t stand on ceremony, help yourself… it’s just going to be wasted if you leave it anyway.”

Jun Mo Xie would always scratch his head with a conflicted look on his face. “If I took them away, it would be the equivalent of tearing down your houses… Are you really not worried?”

“Haha… take them away? You sure know how to joke…” That person said with a light smile. “If you can take them away, I will…” All kinds of ridiculous vows and bets were thrown out…

Two days later, at dawn, Jun Mo Xie began his grand relocation plan.

In the time it took for a pot of tea to boil, everyone on Mount Heaven Saint was stunned silly!

Oh my dear heavens ah…

~~~~ ~~~~~ ~~~~~

Jun Mo Xie stepped out from his temporary guest room and bade everyone farewell solemnly. Apart from the few who were in secluded meditation, practically everyone had come out to send him off. Everyone wanted to see the helpless appearance on this kid’s face. It’d been too long ago since such a fun thing had happened on Mount Heaven Saint…

Just imagining the bitter look on Jun Mo Xie’s face when he leaves clutching just one or two unimportant herbs, they could already feel their stomachs clenching up with laughter. This was a grand show ah… when they thought about how the mighty Evil Monarch who’d caused the three Holy Lands to lose so much face in the pugilistic world was suffering such a disadvantage at their hands, all of them felt much more comfortable in their hearts…

“Seniors, this junior is very grateful for the hospitality I’ve been shown in these few days. Today, I will be bidding my farewell first.” Jun Mo Xie said courteously, with a warm and sincere smile on his face.

“Young Master Jun is being too polite. You’re welcome to come back often to play.” Everyone was laughing and jovially, while a strange smile lingered on their faces.

“Senior Wu Shan Yun had said before that as long as I see something I like on this mountain, I can take it away no matter what it is, and how many. Therefore… I will not be standing on ceremony.” Jun Mo Xie seemed to be afraid that the crowd had forgotten Wu Shan Yun’s promise and was tentatively reminding them.

“Please do not stand on ceremony. Since the boss had already promised you, it wouldn’t be a problem even if you carried this entire mountain away…” The group of peak experts laughed and encouraged.

Hearing this, Jun Mo Xie smiled with embarra.s.sment. “Seniors are truly too courteous. In these few days, I’ve picked out quite a number of stuff, and my harvest was truly quite rich… If I become successful in the future, this junior will certainly remember the kindness and generosity of the various Seniors today…”

Everyone sn.i.g.g.e.red darkly, continuously telling him that there was no need to be polite, to take whatever he liked. Their eyes were narrowed into slits, and their shoulders trembled lightly with laughter.

Jun Mo Xie rubbed his palms and smiled happily. “The experts of the Holy Lands are indeed gracious and generous ah, it seems like I’ve struck a fortune this time! Hahaha…”

Everyone joined in with his laughter and in that moment, the entire mountain was filled with endless laughter, as if there was a comedy show going on… everyone was exceedingly happy…

Just as the crowd was growing anxious, their long awaited and predicted sound of shock rang out. “Ah! This is bad! I completely forgot… I’ve chosen so many things, but with just my own strength, how can I carry them all away? Ah ah ah… this is frustrating me to death…”

These words were like music in the ears of those elders; it was more enjoyable than if a traveller who’d been thirsty for a long time finally got a taste of ice cream…

Too satisfying ah! This stupid little b.a.s.t.a.r.d finally realizes his mistake. How enjoyable! Seeing Jun Mo Xie’s frustrated and bitter face, everyone smiled until their eyes could not be seen, in a matter of enjoying the misfortune of others.

Only Qiao Ying stood to the side with her brows furrowed as she looked at Jun Mo Xie with worry.

She knew that Jun Mo Xie had a strange ability to make items disappear. The only question was just how powerful this ability was, and whether it could fit all these items. Looking at the entire mountain filled with red ribbons, she could not help but to gasp in her heart. If Jun Mo Xie really could bring everything he’d tagged away, Mount Heaven Saint’s essence Qi would be greatly wounded…

At the same time, she was also worried for Jun Mo Xie. If he couldn’t take the stuff away… This fellow looked like an exceedingly clever person, but could it be that he’d actually allowed the vast amounts of spirit herbs, which clouded his judgement? Not even considering if he could bring everything away… After making such a huge blunder, he must be feeling extremely bad…

Jun Mo Xie sighed endlessly, seemingly on the verge of being vexed to death. As he paced back and forth, he asked hopefully. “Seniors, if I kept my things here for the time being… After I get down from the mountain, I will immediately send my men up to bring them away. What do you say?”

“That won’t do! The boss had instructed before, that this time is the only exception! Furthermore, you are the only one allowed to take anything off this mountain. Besides… what kind of a sacred place is Mount Heaven Saint? How can we just let anyone come here as they pleased? Wouldn’t that be too indecent?

The bunch of old fellows instantly shook their heads vigorously. What a joke; it wasn’t easy for us to be in such a jovial mood. If you did that, wouldn’t our jokes be turned on ourselves? This brat is dreaming fancily in broad daylight, to think that he can clear out Mount Heaven Saint! When was there such a great thing in the world?

Jun Mo Xie was somewhat fl.u.s.tered as he asked with red eyes. “This won’t do, and that won’t do as well. Should I just stand here and look then? I originally intended to take only a few of each type, retaining the Spiritual Qi of this place… Seniors, if you annoyed me, don’t blame me for bringing everything I’ve chosen away!”

An old fellow with his beard tied in two sides laughed coldly in response. “Jun Mo Xie, if you have the ability, you can take whatever you wish away. The few of us will certainly not stop you in the slightest! Why? You’re intending to play foul now that you can’t take anything away?”

“Those were your words! If I really take away everything that I’ve chosen, you’re not allowed to go back on your words, much less find some excuses to deal with my family and friends!” Jun Mo Xie said seriously.

“Hahaha…” The tens of experts all laughed together. “Jun Mo Xie, what kind of people do you take us to be? This old man and the rest of us are all legends who held sway over the pugilistic world thousands of years ago. A word from us is as good as gold. We’ll never go back on out words! With our reputation of thousands of years in the pugilistic world, are we people who eat our words?”

“Good!” Jun Mo Xie looked as if he’d truly been forced to his limits and was about to play with his own life. “Although this method will harm my essence Qi greatly, it was you all who forced me! Men fight for a breath of air, and Buddhas vie for a stick of incense; If I don’t take everything away, I would be looked down upon by you!”

“If you have any abilities, you can display them as you please. Jun Mo Xie, this old man will remind you once more. After you go down the mountain today, in the future, not to mention sending people here; even you will not be allowed back up again!” Everyone looked at the fl.u.s.tered and furious look on Jun Mo Xie’s face and could not help but sneer in disdain.

Jun Mo Xie was furious, suddenly stretching his hands out seemingly exerting a great effort. His face was flushed, and his eyes were blazing with rage. Grunting loudly, he grabbed a thick Xuan Spiritual Tree beside him and roared, “COME UP FOR ME!”

As his words landed, a light pop sound rang out, and the Xuan Spiritual Tree completely disappeared!

In that moment, everyone fell silent as they stared with wide eyes with open mouths!

How did such a large tree disappear just like that? This was too strange…

Jun Mo Xie collapsed onto the ground on his b.u.t.t and panted heavily. From the looks of it, he’d exerted himself too greatly after using his strange technique. However, a look of determination shone fiercely in his eyes still. It was as if he was bent on leaving with everything here, regardless of the price!

Such a method was definitely something that would drain his own lifeforce! Otherwise, why would Jun Mo Xie’s expression be so pale and deathly? He’d only taken a single tree away, but it seemed as if the effort had cost him half his life…

Clearly, this was no longer a problem of taking away the spirit herbs; it was a matter of face! This Jun Mo Xie kid was obviously a person who viewed his face as more important than everything!

Therefore, regardless of the results today, he would take all the treasures away even if it costed him his life!

He was already tired to this extent just by a single tree. One could easily imagine what a great price he would have to pay to collect all of the ribboned items… Would he simply die of exhaustion?

In that moment, all the undying old fellows began to feel somewhat guilty.Have we gone too far in forcing him?

Jun Mo Xie panted a few time and stood up, walking in another direction in a determined manner. With a shu sound, another large Xuan Spiritual Tree disappeared…

This time, Jun Mo Xie’s face had turned completely red. However, he did not stop to rest as he stumbled unsteadily to the next tree.

As three large Xuan Spiritual Trees disappeared, the entire thatched cottage collapsed. Jun Mo Xie panted heavily as he grunted, collecting the entire remains of the cottage away…

T-t-this… everyone was completely stunned.

Jun Mo Xie stumbled in a circle like a drunkard, plopped down on his b.u.t.t and waved his hands determinedly. “n.o.body try to dissuade me! Today, I must… bring everything away! Motherf*ckers… nothing anyone says can make me take this insult lying down! I, Jun Mo Xie, have never felt so belittled in my life before!”

The crowd was completely speechless. Who’s interested in dissuading you? It would be better if you exhausted yourself to death! It’s just this much and you’re already unable to endure. If… hmph hmph!

Jun Mo Xie stumbled around unsteadily, collecting tree after tree, herb after herb… With every stalk collected, his face would become more and more pale, as if he would collapse at any moment… but ultimately, he did not fall!

The crowd looked dumbly on as they followed behind him, watching tree after tree disappear, and house after house torn down… the entire side of Mount Heaven Saint had been turned into a patch of desolation…

Jun Mo Xie crawled forward with great effort, but his stomach was practically cramping from laughing too much… Too enjoyable! What a great harvest ah… One tree, two trees, four trees… 70 trees… 90 trees… Wahahaha…

How could Jun Mo Xie not know that he’d gone somewhat overboard? All the natural treasures on Mount Heaven Saint had been grown through over ten thousand years of acc.u.mulation ah! Even though he had Wu Shan Yun’s promise, it was not a completely fail safe thing.

If he incurred the wrath of the crowd, his own plan would go up in smoke! After all, these things here were their dwelling residence… Wanting to take everything away silently like that under the eyes of so many peak level experts… was more difficult than ascending to the heavens!

Besides… even if he managed to take everything away safely, it didn’t guarantee that they wouldn’t take revenge! Jun Mo Xie and Mei Xue Yan may not be afraid of their vengeance, but that didn’t mean that other people would not as well…

Thus, this show that Jun Mo Xie was putting on was not plainly to toy with them… Firstly, he wanted to let them watch so that even if they decided to stop him halfway… he would have already collected quite a large number; they could only suffer a silent loss as well!

Secondly… even if when they found out that they’ve been had… because they had already said it with their own mouths that they would not seek revenge, all the troubles would at most fall on his shoulders only. With the lofty pride of these people, they would only look for him to regain their face and wouldn’t take their anger out on innocent people!

The more ruthlessly Jun Mo Xie played with them now, the more they wouldn’t lay their hands on other people before they dealt with him! And Jun Mo Xie… was also the least afraid of their vengeance! Even if he was forced to the end of his road, he could simply dodge into the Hongjun PaG.o.da and hide for a period of time… Even the G.o.ds would not be able to find him at that time!

This time, he could consider it as having successfully harvested over 90 percent of all the materials he would need for his future pill refining needs! Furthermore… these materials were all living and fresh. In the Hongjun PaG.o.da, where the acc.u.mulation of Spiritual Qi was hundreds to a thousand times better than the outside world, the speed at which these spirit plants grew would be exceedingly quick as well! It was the equivalent of having an endless supply for the future as well…

Zero investment and endless profits ah!

The only thing he lost was probably his face. And… when had this Young Master ever cared about a simple thing like face?

Under everyone’s disbelieving gazes, Jun Mo Xie had slowly collected over 80 percent of his tagged items…

Finally, all the experts realized that something was wrong. F*ck! This kid has already torn down over half of all the thatched cottages. And practically all of the spirit plants with advanced maturity have been plucked clean…

This fellow… that half dead expression on his face hasn’t changed at all from the beginning! T-this… isn’t this just toying with us?!

“STOP!” A white haired old man roared and charged over with a frosty expression. “Jun Mo Xie, to think that you actually used such sinister tricks to toy with us. Was it very fun? The ten thousand years of acc.u.mulation of our Mount Heaven Saint were actually destroyed like that in your hands! Jun Mo Xie, you’ve gone too far! Stop immediately and return everything you took!”

As his words rang out, those who were still stuck in confusion instantly realized as well.

“Return it?” Jun Mo Xie panted and straightened his back with great effort. “Brother, are you joking with me? That was a promise that came out of your own mouth! You said that it wouldn’t matter even if I carried away the entire mountain! Wasn’t that your joint agreement? You want to go back on your words now? One should not be so shameless as a person, okay?”

The spirit plants had already been kept away, and the other party suddenly wanted to go back on his word. Jun Mo Xie did not even bother with calling ‘Senior’ now, directly turning it into ‘Brother’.

The faces of all the old fellows instantly turned red. Although it was true that they’d said that, who would have thought that this kid would be so perversely overpowered? Since the start of time, had anyone seen someone grabbing things in such a manner? F*ck, this kid was simply too sly…

“Hmph! We’ve only promised you a portion; who said you could take everything away? Could it be that we must be responsible for all the jokes that we tell as well?” The old man’s face turned a funny shade of purple as he insisted forcefully. “We’ve also claimed before that we would pluck the moon out of the sky… however, is that possible?”

“That may be so, but I’ve indeed done it!” Jun Mo Xie narrowed his eyes and said. “So you’re prepared to tear down all pretenses and throw your face away? It’s one thing if the three Holy Lands are like that; after all, they’re a bunch of hypocrites. But to think that your Heaven Saint Palace is also full of this kind of people? How disappointing. To think that a person’s face can be thick to such an extent!”

“Jun Mo Xie, there’s no point in winning a contention of the tongue. There’s so many of us here… Did you think that you can really leave?” The old man snorted coldly and continued. “A man who can recognize the facts of a situation is a paragon among men. Put the things down first, and we will naturally not make things difficult for you… You can bring away a portion, but you cannot bring everything away!”

“Teng Chong Jie, that’s not too good, right?” Qiao Ying furrowed her brows lightly. “I am also very angry that Jun Mo Xie thrashed our Heaven Saint Palace into such a state. However… this is, after all, something that everyone had agreed on and promised together. Now, the other party had managed to accomplish it, but you want to go back on your words… That’s not very glorious, right? If word of this spreads out, where will our Heaven Saint Palace put our face?”

“This matter has nothing to do with the Heaven Saint Palace! It’s this old man that’s going back on my words…” The old expert’s face twitched, but he still gritted his teeth and said. “If he really took everything away like this, the essence Qi of our Heaven Saint Palace will not recover for several thousand years! This old man cannot bear such a consequence, and neither can you!”
