Chapter 2449: Chapter 2469: Since You’ve Come a Long Way, I’ll Let You Make the First Move!

Mo Daoli and the others’ expressions instantly turned rather unsightly.

Shattered Illusion Realm?

Hadn’t he just broken into the Elephant Mystery Realm today?

To outsiders, Lin Chen’s words might seem like a defense for himself, but for the Gui Xu Sect members, they were exceptionally grating to the ear.

"I, being in the Shattered Illusion Realm, and you all can’t even block me, and now you have the nerve to come knocking on my door?"

Zhao Gang’s face turned as red as a liver in an instant, because such a claim would probably be met with disbelief by others; everyone would likely think our group had made up a story.

Clenching his teeth, Zhao Gang said, "Lin Chen, whether you did it or not, you know best. If you refuse to admit it, you’ll bear the consequences!"

Lin Chen laughed coldly, "Bear the consequences? What, do you think that because our Dragon Mountain Sect’s base is in Eastern Brilliance and not many people come here, that I’m easy to bully, and that you can simply sling mud at me?"

"You say I’ve kidnapped your sect disciples, but you have to produce evidence. Either you have proof that it was me who acted, or you find your kidnapped disciples, baseless accusations won’t do. I could just as easily say that your Gui Xu Sect stole our Dragon Mountain Sect’s important Cultivation Technique. Shouldn’t you return it to us?"

Zhao Gang was so angry he nearly spat out a mouthful of blood; if they could find Shang Wenyin, why would they still be entangled with Lin Chen here?

They would have simply taken action to capture Shang Wenyin and brought this issue to a close, right?

Mo Daoli said solemnly, "Master Floating Cloud, what is your take on this matter?"

"How do I see it? I’m sitting here and watching!"

Master Floating Cloud spoke coldly, "Without any proof, you come knocking on our door and falsely accuse the disciples of my Dragon Mountain Sect. Do you think that my Dragon Mountain has no one capable, that I need to personally pay a visit to your Gui Xu Sect to show you a thing or two?"

Mo Daoli’s expression changed. Master Floating Cloud was the strongest powerhouse of the Dragon Mountain Sect. In a competition against the Sea God Sect, he had defeated a carefully chosen Superior Prime Daluo Immortal from the Sea God Sect, showing the formidable level of his strength.

Although the Gui Xu Sect also had their Superior Prime Daluo Immortals, upon further thought, most likely none would match Master Floating Cloud.

If Master Floating Cloud really did decide to storm Gui Xu Sect and thrash all the experts there, wouldn’t Gui Xu Sect become the laughing stock?

Mo Daoli spoke with a heavy voice, "My Gui Xu Sect may not be a match for your Dragon Mountain Sect, but this is the Northern Sea, and we are not without powerful friends. Should an actual conflict arise, it’s not certain that Dragon Mountain Sect would come out on top!"

"Shang Wenyin is an important figure of our Gui Xu Sect, and this is a critical matter. We will absolutely not abandon the search for her. I would advise fellow cultivator to reconsider carefully, to avoid truly harming our good relations."

Master Floating Cloud’s mouth twitched in a sneer, and he laughed out loud, "This is the Northern Sea? That’s a bold claim. Are you implying that because there’s too much distance between Eastern Brilliance and the Northern Sea, my people from Dragon Mountain Sect can’t travel here, or perhaps, you think just because you have friends to call upon for aid, that our Dragon Mountain Sect is alone and helpless?"

Here, Master Floating Cloud’s demeanor turned stern, "Sect Master Mo, if your person is lost, go search properly. Don’t go around causing trouble. That’s all I have to say. Gentlemen, please leave... Show the guests out!"

Mo Daoli stood up with a frosty expression, "I’ve long heard of fellow cultivator’s reputation as the top powerhouse, and having come here, if I were to leave without learning a thing or two, wouldn’t that be a Waste of such a precious opportunity?"

Surprise flashed in Master Floating Cloud’s eyes, "Are you challenging me?"

Mo Daoli said solemnly, "Yes, I wonder if fellow cultivator dares to accept the challenge?"

Master Floating Cloud scoffed, "Fine, since you don’t want to leave peacefully, then you can be carried out!"

Mo Daoli looked at Master Floating Cloud’s domineering tone and arrogant attitude, feeling the anger sizzling inside of him.

"Since fellow cultivator is willing to make a move, then please do so. If fellow cultivator loses, please hand over Shang Wenyin!"

Master Floating Cloud sneered, "Fighting you is because I find you disagreeable. My disciple said he has nothing to do with your so-called Shang Wenyin. So, if we’re going to fight, let’s fight. Forget the irrelevant talk."

Mo Daoli internally acknowledged the other party still gave nothing away. A doubt crept into his heart – could it be that Master Floating Cloud really didn’t know anything?

Could it be true that Lin Chen, driven by lust, had taken away Shang Wenyin, to keep her as a hidden concubine?

Regardless, with things having reached this point, there was nothing left to do but fight.

If someone had kidnapped a disciple of his own sect and he did nothing after pursuing the matter, leaving meekly after a reprimand, then word would spread and his sect’s face would be lost just the same.

If he could defeat Master Floating Cloud, perhaps the situation would turn around!

Mo Daoli’s reason for provoking Master Floating Cloud was because he had previous contact with the people of Sea God Sect and had inquired in detail, learning that Master Floating Cloud had used the Mount Long Secret Technique and seriously injured himself to defeat the opponent.

Although more than a year had passed since that battle, according to the people of Sea God Sect, although Master Floating Cloud appeared unharmed, his injuries were definitely not light, and fully recovering would certainly take longer than just a year and a bit.

Strike while the enemy is sick – that’s when you take their life!

If you weren’t injured, I wouldn’t even bother fighting.

Master Floating Cloud and Mo Daoli both soared into the air and in an instant departed from Ascending Dragon Island, arriving over the vast Ocean.

Master Floating Cloud stood with his hands behind his back, his expression serene, "Make your move. Though you come as an unwelcome guest, you are still a guest. I’ll give you the first move..."
