YM778.TV Chapter 204: War?
"What is it, young man? Is there something on my face?" The sect master asked Wei Jun who still hadn\'t gotten out of his stupor and involuntarily replied, "You\'re strong."
"…" Silence in the hall as everyone looked at Wei Jun with a mixture of gazes. Some couldn\'t help but think he was a brave young man while some thought he wasn\'t smart but destructive.
However, one thought they had in common was that he was stupid. No one could address the Sect Master without his title and Wei Jun was addressing the sect master without his appropriate title.
"You impudent!!!" Before Sun Ruan could reprimand Wei Jun and apologize on his behalf, Elder Mu, the sect master\'s brother and the one who had an opposing faction to Sun Ruan spoke up.
"Haha." The sect master chuckled before Elder Mu could say anything else and said, "Well, I haven\'t heard such a pure compliment in quite a while."
"What\'s your name, young man?" The sect master asked. Wei Jun managed to collect himself from Elder Mu\'s yell but he still couldn\'t get over the fact of how strong the sect master was.
"Wei—Wei Jun Ruan." Wei Jun replied.
"Ahh… Grandson of Ruan. No wonder you\'re so talented and your Qi so pure." The sect master said before he changed his expression and said, "But with great power, comes a great amount of arrogance. The misconception that one can do anything in the world just because they have the power to do so."
The sect master leaned in and said, "Tell me, young man, are you also arrogant?"
"I was before today." Wei Jun honestly replied. No one needed to interpret that answer. Everyone knew exactly what Wei Jun meant.
He was left aghast by the sect master\'s power.
However, only if they knew that the power they felt was different from what Wei Jun saw. The sect master wasn\'t some [Qi grandmaster] realm martial artist, he was a [Qi Demon], a power none of them could even fathom.
"Haha." The sect master said before he added, "Is that so? Then, let us not delay any longer and get to the issue at hand."
The sect master said before he turned to Liu Yu and said, "Your wife, Liu Yu, has pleaded to the sect to address her distress to everyone. She claims that not only have you been unfaithful to her, but you have also tried to slander her reputation to cover your own mistakes. Do you deny any of these claims?"
Wei Jun looked at the sect master and said, "I have been unfaithful but that was only after she was unfaithful with me. She didn\'t let me stay in her house on the day of our marriage and kicked me out. She then lived alone and I have dug out records of her calling for men\'s services. I have evidence."
"Evidence she claims to have been forged." The sect master intervened.
"Only one of us is right then." Wei Jun said. The elders, especially the one who brought him couldn\'t help but shake their heads in response. Wei Jun was specifically told not to speak unless given permission to and he wasn\'t permitted this time.
"That is also true." The sect master said before he turned to Liu Yu and asked, "Is there any way you can prove your claims?"
"Esteemed sect master, may I request for a test of proof of innocence behind closed doors?" Liu Yu asked in response.
The sect master nodded and said, "Elder Qin and Elder Yin would accompany you for that."
Wei Jun, who wasn\'t familiar with the uptight language couldn\'t tell what proof of innocence was so he was at a loss for what was going on.
[They\'re going to see if she is still a vi*gin or not]
\'Seriously?\' Wei Jun couldn\'t help but ask given the absurdity of the situation.
[Seriously]
\'Great.\' Wei Jun thought. He admitted he hadn\'t considered this possibility but still, there was nothing to be worried about. At most, the problem would then come over to the man and woman.
Wei Jun wasn\'t a sexist but he knew that this was a man\'s world as well. He knew that no matter what Liu Yu did, she would in the end be just used for her master\'s purposes.
Wei Jun knew why she hadn\'t asked for a divorce but separation and a good chunk of business. She knew that Wei Jun was her best bet and she wouldn\'t let him go to replace him with someone worse.
She would at most demand compensation and freedom from Wei Jun, not freedom from his name.
Wei Jun remained quiet in his place and after ten minutes, Liu Yu returned followed by the elders who made their way to their own seats and reported to the sect master after settling in, "Disciple Liu Yu\'s claims are the truth, esteemed sect master."
"…" Silence took over the hall. Wei Jun was proved a liar and a schemer. There was nothing to be done about this now except to accept everything as it was.
He would have to pay compensation and the party among them both would be decided. The party that held all the cards at least.
And everyone knew that party would be Liu Yu.
"Well, what do you have to say for yourself, Disciple Ruan?" The sect master asked but in return, nothing but silence remained. Wei Jun kept his gaze down and didn\'t speak.
Everyone thought he was finished. Everything was over; was what everyone thought.
The sect master didn\'t say anything. He let Wei Jun come to terms for a while and remained quiet to let him come up with an answer.
Wei Jun sighed before a smile appeared on his face. A smile that Liu Yu had become very familiar with. The smile of a predator.
And it didn\'t help that that predator was in a corner at a moment. And a cornered animal was known to have let go of all inhibitions and bite anything or anyone in his vicinity.
"Did you check the back? Some bi*ches love that." Wei Jun turned to Elder Qin and Elder Yin and asked.
"…" Silence.
No one spoke. They didn\'t need to elaborate on what Wei Jun meant. It was the insult of the highest level and that wasn\'t just for Liu Yu but almost every woman in the hall.
"How dare you!" A yell came from the other side of the court where Ju Bai Lu couldn\'t help but rise to the occasion.
Of course, the elders remained quiet because they didn\'t care about any of this but they did care where this would lead and everyone was preparing to take advantage of that.
And the sect master couldn\'t help but smile when he noticed that.
"Of course, you\'d speak." Wei Jun said before he mused to himself, "I don\'t get it though."
"What?!" Ju Bai Lu angrily asked.
"Why did your mother pass away? You\'re a disappointment but not that much?" Wei Jun asked.
"You impudent!!!" Elder Mu yelled and his Qi rampaged throughout the hall.
Wei Jun turned to him and said with a smile as if realization dawned on him, "Ah, now I get why."
Tension arose. In just a short period of time and with a few words, the entire sect was riled up and ready for blood. Elder Mu\'s Qi rampaged as he threw it at Wei Jun.
[Qi armament]
[Qi empowerment]
As blade-like Qi fell on Wei Jun, Wei Jun remained motionless. He was cut in places but nothing went in very deep.
After all, Elder Mu only intended to hurt him by taking a limb off so he hadn\'t put in much power. But Wei Jun was stronger and sturdier than he would have thought. He was able to bear the brunt of the attacks while remaining motionless.
He was wounded a lot, but nothing serious. And that was when Sun Ruan decided to interfere as well because he now had probable cause. His only grandson and his disciple were attacked by an elder no less.
It was paramount to let someone rob your house and all you can do is watch.
Sun Ruan Qi, which was stronger than anyone in the hall, except for the sect master, enveloped Wei Jun and protected him while it also went towards Elder Mu as well.
No one needed to be told what would happen if he struck Elder Mu.
War would break out.
"I take my plea back!!!" Liu Yu yelled before any of it could progress any further.
Just as she said that a powerful Qi engulfed the entire hall and brought the elders to their knees while the disciples weren\'t harmed.
"Then it seems we have arrived at a verdict." The sect master said with a smile. Experience more tales on mvl
