Chapter 838: Trust? Or Challenge?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Is it really that funny?” Dongfang Wen Qing asked with a strange expression. No matter how he thought, he couldn’t understand what this nephew was laughing about.

“Chrysanthemum Chen... what a great name! Could it be that this family’s chrysanthemums are all very deep 1 ? I wonder where the chrysanthemum gate is located at? Is it very wide, or tight? HAHAHA...” Jun Mo Xie bent over laughing, nearly falling off his horse.

“What are you laughing at, you brat!” Dongfang First Master grew angry. “Facing a powerful enemy like this, not only are you not thinking of an appropriate strategy, you even have the time to laugh?”

“Powerful enemy?!” Jun Mo Xie finally stopped laughing with great difficulty. His shoulders were still trembling from the laughter, but he snorted ruthlessly. “Just this ragtag bunch can be considered a powerful enemy? They called themselves undefeatable chrysanthemums right? Uncle, just watch quietly today as I make that nonsense Chrysanthemum Chen family sing me a song of defeated chrysanthemums!”

“This chrysanthemum is not so easy to defeat! Their foundations are actually very deep!” Dongfang Wen Qing didn’t know what this nephew of his was talking about and was even less able to comprehend his joke about the chrysanthemums. Right now, he could only concentrate on the mission as he compared the strength of both sides. Rubbing his chin, he continued. “Our target this time is the head of the Chen Family, Cloud Chaser Chen Qing Tian. Wanting to kill Chen Qing Tian under the guard of countless experts is an extremely difficult thing...”

Dongfang First Master took out a scroll from his sleeves and passed it to Jun Mo Xie. “This is the detailed information on the Chen Family.”

“Assassinate the head of a super family? Uncle, how did the Dongfang Family end up accepting such a ludicrous mission?” Jun Mo Xie looked over the scroll carefully and asked with confusion.

At the same time, a strong doubt rose in his heart. Disregarding the addition of Jun Mo Xie’s forces, if one only looked at Dongfang Family’s original lineup, it would be extremely unreasonable for them to accept this mission.

According to the report, although the Chen Family was considered as a worldly family, they could actually be counted as a super family as well. Their foundations were actually not below the Dongfang Family. In fact, there were even several areas that they were superior in. And... this was just the information on the surface. Who knew how much more stuff was hidden in the dark? For the Dongfang Family, which had been reclusive for so long, finally returning to the world, accepting this target from the start was an incredibly strange thing!

“The reason lies with you.” Dongfang First Master looked at his nephew with some affection. Although the two of them had butted heads all the way these few days, he was actually very satisfied with this nephew.

“Me? What do you mean?” Jun Mo Xie raised his head and asked with confusion.

“Around a thousand years ago, the Chen Family was just a newly established family. At that time, they were only a small family, and although they progressed well, they were only considered as a third rate family. But around 500 years ago, a startling genius suddenly appeared from the Chen Family! From then on, they’ve risen quickly, standing stably until now where they completely dominated an area.”

“That legendary character that carried the Chen Family to their prime was someone that you’re probably familiar with. That person is Chen Chong! From the time that Chen Chong first rose to prominence, his name quickly resounded through the entire Xuan Xuan Continent in just a few months. After that, he charged smoothly all he way to the peak of Xuan cultivation. Before the age of 50, he’d already reached the Supreme realm. His fame could be said to be unrivalled at that time—a living legend! After that, he joined the three Holy Lands, becoming the Wind and Clouds Venerable, Wind and Clouds Saint. Fantasy became legend! But now, this legend that had ensured the prosperity of the Chen Family was rumoured to have fallen by the hands of your master...”

Jun Mo Xie shook his head and siged. So that was the case. He roughly understood the situation now.

“Chen Chong, who’d already entered the Saint realm, had died so unexpectedly. To the Elusive World of Immortals, it was definitely a huge loss. But to the Chen Family, it meant that their only backing was gone. Their sky had fallen!”

Dongfang Wen Qing had a faint smile on his face as he continued. “After Chen Chong’s death was verified, the Jun Family had already retreated into Tian Fa. The Chen Family swore to get their revenge, but they couldn’t find a target. Besides, an enemy that even Chen Chong couldn’t defeat was definitely not something that a worldly family like them could provoke. But right at this time, our Dongfang Family, who has a close relationship to you, suddenly proclaimed our return to the world. The Chen Family naturally directed their hatred towards us, swearing not to rest until one of us is dead!”

Jun Mo Xie shook his head faintly, not knowing if he should laugh or cry. From the looks of it, no matter what it was, there would always be cause and effect in the world. As long as a person had the intent for vengeance, even if they couldn’t find the proper target, they would still find another target to vent their hatred on.

No matter how vague the relationship their target had with the original perpetrator, and no matter how ludicrous the reason they used to persecute them was. Even if it was completely ridiculous, there will always be someone who will use it as an excuse!

In this world, the so-called excuse was actually this easy to obtain! Murdering and pillaging had become a righteous and noble thing because of such excuses...

That was the exact thing with the Chen Family this time. They didn’t have the courage or the ability to look for the Jun Family inside Tian Fa. However, they still wanted to turn their rage to another family. Such actions were truly despicable and shameless to the extreme.

“After the Chen Family declared their stand, we instantly received this request.” Dongfang Wen Qing said with a dangerous glint in his eyes. “The one who issued this contract was another super family, the Zhan Family. This matter is so coincidental that it’s ridiculously funny.”

“Zhan Family? Why is the Zhan Family issuing the contract a funny thing?” Jun Mo Xie furrowed his brows. This ‘Zhan’ word had roused an unpleasant thought in his mind. The beautiful Green Hunter’s pained face, and Zhan Mu Bai’s palm once again appeared before his eyes. A chilly killing intent surged from him unknowingly.

“Exactly! An assassination request from the Zhan Family is nothing but an exceedingly funny joke! Many years ago, the old ancestor of the Zhan Family had already entered the Elusive World of Immortals. Although it’s been many years, they’re still evidence on this. Also, the Zhan Family and the Chen Family have always had a good relationship. Even by relationship of organization, the two families are both connected by the Elusive World of Immortals and never had any sort of conflict. Two families who always had good relationship, and one suddenly issues a mission to kill off the other family’s family head? Isn’t that ludicrous?!”

Dongfang Wen Qing laughed coldly and continued. “Besides that, there was a rumour several hundred years ago, that the Chen Family’s legendary genius Chen Chong, had accepted an expert of the Zhan Family in the three Holy Lands as his master! All these years, the two families were practically speaking out of the same mouth. Now, the Zhan Family actually issued a mission to assassinate the family head of the Chen Family... this is obviously a trap! Perhaps they thought our Dongfang Family were a family of idiots... so without any further considerations, your grandmother immediately accepted this mission!

“This might not be the two families treating our Dongfang Family as idiots. Instead... this matter is exactly the two families issuing a challenge to the Dongfang Family!” Jun Mo Xie finally understood. “The Dongfang Family has finally proclaimed their reentry to the world, and after receiving such a naked provocation right after, they couldn’t possibly shrink back right after. That’s a move that would ruin their reputation. So this was not an assassination contract, but a letter of challenge!”

When Old Madam Dongfang accepted the mission personally, it was the same as accepting the two family’s declaration of war!

Old Madam Dongfang’s attitude was truly decisive! Facing the challenge of two large families, she actually did not hesitate to fight!

Firstly, this war declaration relates to the prestige of the Dongfang Family’s name as the number one assassin family in the world. No matter what, this name could not be sullied. Secondly, the old madam was using this move to declare her support for her grandson Jun Mo Xie!

Jun Mo Xie instantly understood the whole situation.

He even understood that regardless of whether he came or not, Old Madam Dongfang would definitely still make the same move! With the current strength of the Dongfang Family, facing these two super families at once was undoubtedly a suicidal path! But Old Madam Dongfang had still made the decision without any hesitation. His appearance had given the Dongfang Family the power to triumph over their enemies. It was undoubtedly a timely assistance, like sending charcoal in the midst of snowy weather, or adding flowers to embroidery!

A warm feeling suddenly arose in Jun Mo Xie’s heart. This was kinship! Only his own kin would make such a seemingly foolish decisions for him!

“Dongfang Family and Zhan Family, in terms of nationality, belong to the Yu Tang Kingdom. But these two families never participated in the country’s struggles, and their descendants were not allowed to enter government careers! Both families also happened to be powerful forces, and their elite disciples were plentiful. Whether in wealth or military, they were legitimate behemoths! At this time, both sides had probably already made their preparations! Thus, our mission this time can be said to be exceedingly dangerous with the future inestimable.”

Dongfang Wen Qing said seriously. “Mo Xie, you must be ready; we can despise our opponents, but we definitely cannot underestimate or disregard them.”

Jun Mo Xie nodded heavily, and his eyes turned as ruthless as a hungry vulture!

Ever since he understood the true underlying causes behind this mission, Jun Mo Xie could distinctly feel that this mission might not be as easy as he had thought. The Zhan Family and Chen Family’s combined strength was definitely far above the Dongfang Family, but if they wanted to wipe them out, it was not possible.

Since the three Holy Lands were going to retaliate, as long as they got the opportunity, they would definitely strike with the force of thunder! When a bird’s nest was overturned, no egg would remain intact. How could they let the fish escape from the net? But since the two families did not possess the strength to do that, then...

The only explanation here was that this place had become a trap laid out by the three Holy Lands in the name of the two aristocratic families!

It was a pity that this battlefield now had Jun Mo Xie as well!

The three Holy Lands’ well designed trap was doomed to not succeed! Jun Mo Xie scoffed coldly in his heart.

It remained to be seen just who this trap would end up burying!
