450: Bold!

In front of the Dao Asking Sect's brand new Sect Master Hall, the Grand Elder stopped and cupped his hands the moment he saw the White-robed Youth, speaking in a deep voice.

He also knew the Sect Master's temperament, so he directly recounted everything without waiting for the other party to ask.

"The other two Families of Three Saints City, the Shang Family and the Mo Family, are both targeting our Dao Asking Sect. The former has detained the Spirit Medicine seeds, other Materials, and even the merchants who cooperated with our Sect, all of which were purchased by our Dao Asking Sect."

The other two Families of Three Saints City, the Mo Family, controls assassination and killing, while the Shang Family is a place of merchants. In these two aspects, even a Holy Land like the Eastern Region Academy...

has to show some respect.

"They publicly claim that this batch of Spirit Materials involves city security issues, and even... the Spirit Stone paid by our Dao Asking Sect was confiscated along with them."

The Grand Elder's expression was grim. Trade is crucial for a Sect, not to mention that the Dao Asking Sect is now a newly emerging Holy Land, and the entire Sect urgently needs resources to improve its strength.

The Shang Family's actions were tantamount to choking the Dao Asking Sect.

"As for the latter, they have declared that any Dao Asking Sect Disciple who dares to step into the Mo Family's territory will be killed without mercy!"

The actions of these two Families were clearly and explicitly written on their faces, the words "targeting the Dao Asking Sect."

After speaking, the Grand Elder paused for a moment, then continued to add.

"Before the Mo Family announced this, two Disciples of our Sect were ambushed and injured. Fortunately, their lives were not in danger."

When reporting this, the Grand Elder's gaze shifted upwards, secretly observing his Sect Master, and found that he was not angry.

Although he felt a little wronged, from the perspective of a conservative like the Grand Elder, this was good. After all, the Dao Asking Sect had just arrived in Saint Spirit State and should not make too many enemies.

But just as the Grand Elder was thinking this...

He found that the Sect Master was indeed not angry, but the corner of his mouth curved into a... extremely dangerous arc!

"Detaining our Dao Asking Sect's supplies and threatening our Disciples, these two Families are truly excellent."

Lu Bai's words were gentle, yet filled with a chilling coldness.

"Sect Master, do I need to notify the two Saint Elders?"

The Grand Elder pondered for a moment and spoke.

Although his thinking was conservative and he didn't want to be enemies with the two Families, it was the Sect Master who said this, so...

conservative notions could be set aside.

"No need, they are not qualified enough." Lu Bai said lightly.

The Grand Elder looked at the incomparably domineering White-robed Youth, and for a moment he was stunned, his heart pounding, and the almost decaying blood in his body also began to boil.

That's right! What are two mere Families with a Saint in front of the Sect Master, in front of their Dao Asking Sect!

"Grand Elder, can you bring back double the Shang Family's Materials and Spirit Stone?" Lu Bai looked at the Grand Elder, smiling gently, and handed him a Formation Plate.

Merchants pursue profit, and some things are clear.

This item is enough.

"Yes!"

The Grand Elder respectfully accepted it with both hands, while silently mourning in his heart that these two Families were in for it!

But next...

He felt that the Mo Family would be even worse off.

"As for the Mo Family... this Seat will make a trip." Lu Bai said lightly.

In the quiet wind, there was a biting chill.

The Grand Elder slowly exhaled.

If the Sect Master goes personally, and the Mo Family doesn't fall, he'll write his surname backward!

The Grand Elder...

His surname is Tian.

...

The terrain of Three Saints City is complex. The northern part is a natural barrier, with only a narrow mountain path leading directly to the cliff, and the Mo Family is located at the top of this cliff.

Once, a Prodigy from a Holy Land was assassinated by the Mo Family, and the Holy Land led an attack against them, but they besieged the cliff for three days without breaking through. This was not only because of the Mo Family's dangerous terrain.

But also because the Mo Family possessed a... Saint Grade Formation that enveloped the entire Family!

However, today the Mo Family was very noisy.

"Mo Family Head, that person from the Yin Gui Luo Sect told us not to directly conflict with the Dao Asking Sect, but only to exert some pressure. Is this perhaps a bit too much...?"

An Elder looked troubled, gazing at the veiled figure on the high platform.

The Yin Gui Luo Sect only told them to find a way to put pressure on the Dao Asking Sect, but who knew...

Their own Mo Family Head directly overruled all dissenting opinions, placing the Dao Asking Sect in opposition to the Mo Family. Furthermore, the Mo Family's assassins even severely injured Dao Asking Sect Disciples.

"It's fine. This Dao Asking Sect has already made enemies with forces like Wu Huang City and Sword Mountain, offended the Eastern Region Academy, and fallen out with the Yun Family."

The Mo Family Head stood on the Family's high platform, hands clasped behind his back, and said silently.

"If the Lord of the Dao Asking Sect is smart, he will choose to endure at this moment. Otherwise, offending our Mo Family is not a wise move."

"He wouldn't dare."

This was the confidence of a Family with a Saint realm expert in Three Saints City!

When his words fell, a strange silence filled the Mo Family. Many Family Elders exchanged glances but no one echoed or directly agreed with the Mo Family Head's words.

Such an unclean force was inherently murky.

But below, a man with a square, 'kou'-shaped face stepped forward and stood before the Mo Family Head.

"Mo Family Head, this matter is still improper. The Dao Asking Sect is currently at its peak, and Lu Bai is even known as the number one Prodigy in the Eastern Region. Our Mo Family should not stand in opposition to the Dao Asking Sect."

Other Family Elders were unwilling to speak, either because they didn't have their own thoughts, or because they didn't have the qualifications, but this person did.

After these words fell, the surrounding atmosphere remained silent.

"This matter is of great importance. I suggest we first visit the Dao Asking Sect to apologize, then compensate those two Disciples, and lower our stance to let this matter pass."

Mo Liuchen looked around and continued.

"Mo Liuchen, this is Old Ancestor's intention!"

The Mo Family Head frowned, giving him an displeased glance, and said.

Hiss...

In the air, there was a gasp of cold air. This matter of targeting the Dao Asking Sect actually involved the Old Ancestor?

His old self, he was a Saint!

At this moment, even Mo Liuchen, this Half-Saint and third-ranked figure of the Mo Family, fell silent.

But just then...

A cold greeting rang out.

"The Mo Family Old Ancestor's intention? Tell him to get out and explain."

"Who!"

The Mo Family members' hearts tightened, and they looked towards the source of the sound, where a White-robed Youth stood, his robes spotless.

The Mo Family Head's face sank, and he quickly tried to activate the Formation protecting the Mo Family, but he was surprised to find that he did not have control over the Formation!

Just now, Lu Bai had arrived at the Mo Family, altered the basic Spirit Seals of this Saint Grade Formation, and then heard these words.

Well, it was time to settle accounts.

"This Seat will remind you first: those who move, die."

Lu Bai said lightly.

"How dare you!"

"Who dares to trespass into the Mo Family's important territory!"

As the words fell, the Elders belonging to the Mo Family Head's lineage immediately took action, with mystic ice thorns appearing in their hands, stabbing towards Lu Bai.

But as soon as these few people made a move...

Several dark spiritual energy rays fell from the sky, directly piercing through their bodies, causing these strong individuals' bodies to gradually dissipate.

For a moment, silence reigned.
