Transcending the Nine Heavens

“No, no… Senior Bu.” Chen Mengchi bent down, realizing that this moment was irretrievable, he could only shamelessly say, “Please feel free to punish me, Senior Bu!”

The Chen Family expert who blurted out those words was now dumbfounded.

He could never have imagined that the person he just insulted was someone the entire Chen family could not afford to offend. At this moment, seeing the second ancestor also bowing before him, unable to apologize properly, he was completely bewildered!

I’m doomed, this time I’m truly doomed!

He stood there in a daze, feeling as if the whole world was far away from him at that moment; he didn’t even have the thought of coming forward to apologize and plead for forgiveness.

Because he knew it would be futile!

Looking at the current situation, even if the Law Sovereign spoke out, it might not save him. Moreover… who is he? How could the Law Sovereign offend Bu Liqing for his sake?

Being able to avoid implicating the entire Chen family was already a good outcome.

Bu Liqing looked at Chen Mengchi with an unpredictable expression, snorted, and said, “Chen Mengchi, do you think that by retreating, allowing me to handle this, I would hesitate to take action?”

Chen Mengchi was sweating profusely, bending lower, “I dare not!”

“Being able to cultivate such descendants, your Chen family has done well enough... it’s better to…” Bu Liqing’s voice grew colder.

The Law Sovereign knew that once Bu Liqing finished that sentence, the Chen family would truly be no more.

Just for the face of the peak expert, he would not take back his words. The Chen family must be annihilated!

Hurriedly interrupting, he said, “Brother Bu, let’s not involve the entire Chen family over this matter; it was just one person who spoke recklessly. I’ll personally take revenge for you!”

As he spoke, without waiting for Bu Liqing to respond, he suddenly reached out with his left hand. With a loud bang, he grabbed the man in mid-air, and as he walked, the man shrunk down until he ultimately condensed into a dwarf less than three feet tall, which he held in his hand, and with another bang, he exploded, turning into a puff of red smoke. He vanished between heaven and earth.

If Chen Mengchi had dealt with this person himself, it would not quell Bu Liqing’s anger. It might even escalate it.

So Chen Mengchi dared not act personally from the start.

But with the Law Sovereign handling the matter, it indeed gave Bu Liqing great face. Because the Law Sovereign didn’t need to take action at all—what was his status?

Now, being forced by Bu Liqing to kill one of his own in front of a large crowd, even if Bu Liqing was reluctant, he had to give the Law Sovereign some face.

If the Law Sovereign’s “compromise” didn’t work, then it would mean war.

With the entire world’s enforcers!

Bu Liqing rolled his eyes, grumbling, “Who asked you to meddle? Your response was quick enough.”

The Law Sovereign smiled wryly, knowing Bu Liqing had let this matter pass, “Brother Bu, if my response wasn’t quick, you would have to act yourself, and I fear I wouldn’t be able to handle it.”

Bu Liqing rolled his eyes again, “Am I that unreasonable?”

The Law Sovereign and the leaders of the nine great families all smiled bitterly; are you that unreasonable? But the problem is, when has Bu Liqing ever been reasonable?

Seeing Chen Mengchi still bent over, the Law Sovereign said, “Brother Bu, let Mengchi stand up. He’s of considerable age now; it looks bad.”

Bu Liqing laughed coldly, “But I’m of considerable age too, it’s the first time in nine thousand years that someone has called me an idiot!”

At this point, Mo Qingwu lifted her head, tilted her face and corrected, “Master, you’ve said this wrong; you’ve been called that this year, it should be over nine hundred times…”

Bu Liqing was instantly filled with black lines, yet he couldn’t explode in anger. With a dark face, he said, “Good little Wu, those don’t count.”
