151: Chapter 151: If you won't give it to me, I'll take it myself.
Xiao Yuan stepped forward, stared into Elder Chen Mo's eyes, and said word by word:
"Elder Chen, you are mistaken."
"If you do something wrong, you must pay the price. This is the rule of the cultivation world, and it is also the wager your grandson set himself."
He looked at Chen Yin, his gaze as cold as a knife: "Chen Yin's hands, I'm taking them."
"If he doesn't do it himself, I don't mind—helping him."
The killing intent in Elder Chen Mo's eyes surged violently!
"Brat, you better think this through!" He stepped forward, the pressure of his Early Golden Core stage erupting fiercely and pressing straight towards Xiao Yuan, "Do you really have to have this wager?"
He did not threaten openly, but those words and that gaze were no different from a direct threat.
The atmosphere of the entire place froze instantly!
Yun Qingwan frowned, a chill emerging in her eyes, and her Aura burst forth, preparing to make a move...
Daring to threaten her Disciple was simply courting death... A newly advanced Golden Core, this person was getting too cocky...
But before she could make a move, Xiao Yuan moved a step ahead!
Gale Shadow-Chasing Step combined with Blood Spirit Escape!
With the two movement techniques overlapping, Xiao Yuan's speed reached the extreme!
Elder Chen Mo only felt a blur before his eyes, and Xiao Yuan had already disappeared from the spot!
By the time he reacted, Xiao Yuan had already appeared in front of Chen Yin!
Chen Yin widened his eyes in horror, opening his mouth to shout...
"Ah—!"
A shrill, miserable scream!
Xiao Yuan's hands moved like lightning, directly grabbing Chen Yin's arms and tearing them apart fiercely!
Splat!
Fresh blood spewed wildly!
Both arms were ripped off completely from the roots!
Chen Yin screamed as he fell to the ground, his whole body twitching, and he instantly passed out!
The entire place was in dead silence!
Everyone was stunned by this bloody scene!
They didn't expect Xiao Yuan to be so decisive, nor did they expect him to be so ruthless, acting the moment he spoke without a shred of nonsense!
Elder Chen Mo was stunned for a second, then flew into a rage!
"Little beast! You're courting death!"
He raised his hand and threw a palm strike, the terrifying palm force of the Golden Core Stage blasting towards Xiao Yuan!
Xiao Yuan stood in place, unmoving.
He looked at Elder Chen Mo coldly, without the slightest trace of fear in his eyes.
Even, he was already considering—whether to take the opportunity to kill this old fellow?
With his current strength, coupled with the Earth Fire Spirit and the three Witch Clan Remnant Souls inside the Creation Cauldron Space, ambushing to death an Early Golden Core stage cultivator was not a problem!
Just at the moment he was about to make a move...
Three figures rushed out simultaneously!
Boom!
The three palm forces collided with Elder Chen Mo's palm force, sending Elder Chen Mo flying backward, vomiting a mouthful of blood, and smashing heavily onto the ground!
Yun Qingwan!
Leng Youyue!
Lin Zhirou!
The three women blocked in front of Xiao Yuan, staring coldly at Elder Chen Mo!
"Elder Chen Mo, you want to touch my Disciple?" Yun Qingwan's voice was icy cold, "Ask me first if I agree!"
Leng Youyue sneered: "On Dan Peak's territory, threatening Dan Peak's Disciple? Elder Chen Mo, have you grown tired of living?"
Lin Zhirou didn't speak, but the Aura around her had already climbed to its peak, ready to strike at any time.
Elder Chen Mo crawled up, his face full of shock and anger.
"You... How dare you make a move against me?!"
"So what if we make a move against you?" Yun Qingwan sneered, "If you dare to touch my Disciple, it serves you right even if I kill you!"
Elder Chen Mo trembled all over with anger: "Xiao Yuan committed violence on the spot! I made a move for the sake of the Sect's public righteousness! Are you shielding the murderer because you want to violate the Sect rules?!"
These words of his were spoken with righteous indignation, turning Xiao Yuan claiming his wager into an act of violence, attempting to make the three women back down with this!
Hearing this, the three women's gazes turned icy, and the killing intent in their eyes grew even thicker. Using this to threaten them, heh... How laughable!
Their Aura surged wildly, and it looked like they were about to strike again.
At this moment, Xiao Yuan walked out from behind the three women, looking at Elder Chen Mo with a mocking smile on the corner of his lips.
"Violence?" He pointed at the unconscious Chen Yin on the ground, "I was merely taking back my wager. If it really were violence, your grandson would already be a dead man right now, instead of lying there like a dead dog."
"You...!" Hearing this, Elder Chen Mo trembled with anger, his eyes bloodshot, "Xiao Yuan! How dare you hurt my grandson, I want you to pay with your blood!"
Xiao Yuan's words made him somewhat lose his reason, and he felt deeply humiliated. A mere Qi Condensation Stage cultivator actually dared to challenge him, a Golden Core expert; he was truly courting death.
However, before his voice faded...
"You dare!"
A furious shout exploded like a thunderclap!
Elder Chen Mo froze.
He turned his head to look, and saw...
Peak Master Yun Ruowei had somehow already stood behind Xiao Yuan!
Behind her were three other Dan Peak Elders!
Seven Golden Core cultivators stared uniformly at Elder Chen Mo!
Those gazes were bone-chillingly cold, as if as long as he dared to move again, they would tear him to pieces on the spot!
Elder Chen Mo was dumbfounded.
Everyone present was dumbfounded.
All seven Golden Core cultivators of Dan Peak stood out!
Just for a Qi Condensation 9th Layer Disciple?!
Xiao Yuan was also stunned. Looking at these figures blocking in front of him, an unprecedented wave of emotion surged in his heart.
Peak Master Yun Ruowei looked at Elder Chen Mo coldly, saying word by word:
"Elder Chen Mo, I have witnessed today's events with my own eyes. For a Disciple of my Dan Peak to win a wager and take back the stakes is entirely justified."
"If you dare to act presumptuously again... Even if you are a Golden Core Elder..."
She paused, a flash of killing intent in her eyes: "I don't mind letting you stay on Dan Peak forever."
Elder Chen Mo's face was ashen, his lips trembled, but he didn't dare to utter another word.
He could feel it... Peak Master Yun Ruowei and the others had developed killing intent towards him!
As long as he dared to say one more word, these women would really strike! Although the Sect prohibited internal fighting, but... for Golden Core Elders, the binding force of this rule was still a bit small!
He gritted his teeth, picked up the unconscious Chen Yin from the ground, retrieved those severed arms, and slunk towards the door in a dejected manner.
With his meager strength, did he dare to make a move?! He even felt that if it weren't for the fact that these women still feared the Sect rules a little, he might already be a dead man right now.
In his heart, he vaguely had a hunch that if he... didn't leave quickly and find a way to save himself! He... would die!
As he left, the onlookers automatically cleared a path.
Watching Elder Chen Mo leave carrying his blood-covered grandson who had lost both arms, some looked with disdain, some sneered, and others muttered softly: "Serves him right..."
Outside the Alchemy Hall, the six women—Su Ruotong, Su Li, Luo Ziyan, Ye Qingcen, Liu Qingqing, and Zhou Ruoxi—were standing in the crowd, watching with blank expressions as Elder Chen Mo carried Chen Yin out.
They had also come to watch the commotion because of the nine rings of the dan bell. At that time, they even wanted to invite Xiao Yuan to come along, but they hadn't been able to find him.
Now, seeing the state of Elder Chen Mo and Chen Yin, those who knew they had a grudge with Xiao Yuan felt an inexplicable wave of satisfaction in their hearts!
Ye Qingcen blinked and curled her lips: "Serves him right! He harmed Xiao Yuan so many times, it's his good luck he didn't die."
Su Li and the others didn't speak, only looking towards the direction of the Alchemy Hall with curiosity in their eyes! What they were even more curious about was what had happened inside for so many people to surround the place!
Inside the Alchemy Hall, Xiao Yuan withdrew his gaze. Just as he turned around, he saw a figure in the crowd who was preparing to sneak away quietly.
"Senior Brother Sun."
His voice was not loud, but it clearly entered everyone's ears.
"Why are you leaving without even saying hello?"
Sun Yue's entire body stiffened as he slowly turned around.
Xiao Yuan looked at him with a brilliant smile.
"Our wager hasn't been fulfilled yet."
