Chapter 393: Chapter 393: Turning the Tables (1)_1
"The Mo Family is about to face a great disaster!" Dugu Qianye glanced at the elders present and uttered a sentence that infuriated them.
A great disaster is imminent for the Mo Family?
The words of Dugu Qianye surprised those present, and then anger followed.
"Nonsense!" an elder rebuked Dugu Qianye, "Who are you to spout such nonsense here!"
"I am merely stating the facts, why be so angry?" Dugu Qianye asked, looking at the angry faces before her.
"As a first-rate family, how could the Mo Family face disaster just because you say so? You’re simply trying to draw attention so that we agree to let you return to the family! There’s nothing those from the lower realms wouldn’t do!" another elder said.
Dugu Qianye laughed in anger, this was an insult to everyone from the lower realms!
And to think they could link such unrelated matters together, she turned to the two speakers and asked, "I would like to know, how did the elder make the connection between these two issues? I came to inform you out of regard for our shared surname, Mo. If you don’t believe me, you might as well pretend I was never here!"
After Dugu Qianye finished speaking, she intended to leave, but a voice called out to her. "Miss Dugu, please do tell us why our Mo Family is facing a major disaster?"
Dugu Qianye turned around and saw an elderly man sitting below Mo Jingchuan, looking at her kindly. The others, seeing him speak, quieted down in the noisy hall, showing the high status he held within the Mo Family, commanding even more respect than Mo Jingchuan.
The speaker was none other than the Mo Family’s Great Elder, and Mo Jingchuan’s granduncle. He didn’t like managing the family affairs, and once he had passed the position of Family Head to Mo Jingchuan, everyone wanted him to take the position of Great Elder. Although he agreed reluctantly, he barely spoke at the Elders’ Council. The fact that he was now stopping Dugu Qianye surprised everyone.
Mo Jingchuan himself had not expected Dugu Qianye to just walk away, and seeing that the Great Elder had stopped her, he said, "You should first speak about what the matter is."
Dugu Qianye’s desire to leave was a result of a momentary burst of anger, but she thought it was important to tell them, "The Feng Family plans to attack 211 Mo Family branches during the competition."
"Ridiculous..." The elder who had previously berated Dugu Qianye tried to speak again but was stopped by a look from the Great Elder. The Great Elder looked at Dugu Qianye and asked, "How did you come across this information?"
"Wu Bo told me!" Dugu Qianye replied.
"Absurd!" The other elders believed Dugu Qianye’s words even less now. They all knew who Wu Bo was, the Divine Temple’s Hall Master on the East Continent, who had left for the West Continent last year. How could he possibly tell her such information? Not to forget, the Feng Family and the Divine Temple had issued a death order against them—and that order had not been revoked!
Even the Great Elder was somewhat incredulous, questioning, "Can you be more specific? Why would the Feng Family want to destroy our Mo Family, and how did you learn this from the Divine Temple? Moreover, directly from Wu Bo? It’s not that we don’t believe you, but this matter..."
Dugu Qianye understood everyone’s doubts and explained, "The Feng Family’s plan to exterminate the Mo branches is their first plan, their intention being to exploit the time when all the elites are here to wipe out all Mo Family branches. Due to a shortage of manpower, they’ve negotiated with the Divine Temple, which will dispatch temple members to join the Feng Family’s forces."
"Why would Wu Bo tell you this?" Mo Jingchuan asked, "And why didn’t you tell me last night?"
"It was only during the competition today that he told me. As for why he chose to tell me..." Dugu Qianye paused before saying, "Are you aware that Baili Xie has joined the Divine Temple?"
"Understood." Not long after Baili Xie joined the Divine Temple, the news spread everywhere, and everyone lamented not having recruited such a person for their own clan.
"That’s good," Dugu Qianye said. She took out a mask from her Space Ring, put it on, and adjusted the Phantom Ring. In less than a minute, Baili Xie appeared before everyone.
"Clang!"
Many people dropped their cups to the ground, and Mo Jingchuan was so excited that he stood up suddenly and said, "You, you’re Baili Xie?!"
Mo Qiufeng had been silent since he came in, but after he saw Dugu Qianye transform into Baili Xie, he ran around her several times and said in disbelief, "It really is you! Haha, I thought you would definitely go to watch the competition, and I even went out of my way to look for you. I felt quite disappointed when I couldn’t find you. To think you were competing on the stage!"
Dugu Qianye smiled at Mo Qiufeng and then looked at the Great Elder and said, "This afternoon, Wu Bo told me about the Feng Family’s plans, asking me to craft a large quantity of poisons for them, which will be given to the Feng Family. Once they have the poisons, they will initiate the first plan in full force!"
Since she had given Wu Bo that elixir last time, Wu Bo had asked her if she could craft poisons, which she admitted, so this time, to conserve combat forces, the Feng Family and the Divine Temple came up with the plan to use poison.
"Just because you say you’re Baili Xie doesn’t mean you are. Perhaps you’re an impostor as well!" someone challenged.
Dugu Qianye was already too lazy to bother with that person and was about to speak when she heard the voice of Bei Wuchang from outside, "Who says my dear nephew is an impostor?"
No sooner had the voice faded than Black and White Impermanence walked in from outside. Bei Wuchang appeared very angry, and Hei Wuchang’s expression was also grim.
Seeing Black and White Impermanence, Dugu Qianye asked, "Uncle Master, why have you come?"
"Didn’t you say this afternoon that you were going to discuss this matter with them? We thought that some of the stubborn old-timers from the Mo Family wouldn’t easily trust others, so we came to vouch for you," said Bei Wuchang.
"It looks like things are just as we expected," Hei Wuchang said.
After talking to Wu Bo that afternoon, Dugu Qianye had informed Black and White Impermanence about the matter. She hadn’t expected them to specially make the trip for her. Upon seeing Dugu Qianye’s touched expression, neither of them would admit that they had come just to watch the excitement!
Hearing Black and White Impermanence’s corroboration, those who had just challenged her were somewhat embarrassed.
"Now that both President Black and President White have confirmed Miss Dugu’s identity, it also confirms that the news is true," the Great Elder said as he stood up and came before them. He performed a courtesy to Dugu Qianye and said, "I beg your forgiveness for the offence just now, Master."
Dugu Qianye quickly stopped him from performing the courtesy and said, "The elder offers a courtesy to Qianye, but I truly cannot accept it."
"Now that we know the news is true, we must think of countermeasures," an elder said.
"Qianye, since you’ve already delivered your message, and they didn’t believe you just now, there’s no need for us to stay here. Come on, let’s go back to the Alchemist Guild with Uncle Master," Bei Wuchang said. After speaking, he pulled Dugu Qianye, intending to leave.
