Chapter Ninety-Six: For Sake
Most of the people in the auction hall were indifferent to what was happening in front of them.
And Nie Zihao, who was caused by everyone's gaze, also had a fierce look on his face, pointed the sword in his hand at Ah Kun, who was kneeling in front of him, with tears on his face, begging bitterly, and said grimly: "Boy, if you don't get out of my sight quickly, then don't think about going back to see your despicable mother again today." β
But in the face of Nie Zihao's threat, Ah Kun did not have the slightest intention of retreating, but continued to kowtow desperately, hoping to use this action to impress Nie Zihao, so that he could soften his heart and give himself this miraculous curative elixir, so that his mother could be saved.
Ah Kun's thoughts were obviously naΓ―ve and unrealistic, and Nie Zihao in front of him not felt the slightest pity for him, but instead showed some murderous intent, and then said coldly: "Since you kid wants to find death, then Young Master Ben will give you a ride." β
After that, Nie Zihao was about to attack the sword qi on the sword in his hand at the weak Ah Kun in front of him, but none of the surrounding swordsmen made a move to stop Nie Zihao's behavior.
Because they all know that the sect behind this Nie Zihao is in the Holy Sword Continent, and its strength is second only to the Heavenly Dog Sect of the Holy Sword Sect, if one of them takes action to stop Nie Zihao's behavior today, then it is tantamount to going against Nie Zihao, and forming a bond with Nie Zihao is equivalent to going against the entire Tiangu Sect, and such a consequence is difficult for them sword qi cultivators to bear.
And Ah Kun, who was kneeling in front of Nie Zihao, did not show the panicked look that ordinary people showed when facing danger after feeling the sharp and deadly sword qi coming towards him, but quietly accepted the result that seemed to be doomed without a trace of waves.
Such a calm acceptance of the impending death mentality, something that even most sword qi cultivators would find difficult to do, was now done by an ordinary teenager who had not cultivated sword qi, which made many people present show some shameful looks.
When that sword qi was about to approach Ah Kun, Ah Kun murmured in his mouth: "Mother, if there is an afterlife, the child will not let you live such a poor and hard life, and will not let you be tortured by illness." The child will surely become the one who is proud of the heavens and the earth, and will not let you be harmed in any way. β
Just as Ah Kun calmly accepted his impending death, a sound of sword qi colliding came into Ah Kun's ears.
"Buzz!"
Ah Kun opened his eyes and looked incredulous, because the sharp sword qi that was about to touch his body disappeared out of thin air, which made Ah Kun think that Nie Zihao was finally moved by his begging, and looked at Nie Zihao with a grateful face.
Ah Kun looked at Nie Zihao and said: "Thank you for the young master's grace of not killing, if the young master is willing to give the rain pill to the villain, the villain will definitely go to the soup for the young master in the second half of his life, be a cow and a horse, and never give up." β
"Hey, little brother, you seem to be thanking the wrong person, the person who really saved you is here. Zhao Jinzhu, who was watching in the crowd, said helplessly, and pointed to a silver-haired young man standing beside him with his hand.
But Nie Zihao's face was even more ugly than just now, he didn't pay attention to the grateful eyes of Ah Kun in front of him, but looked at the silver-haired young man who was standing not far from him and had just stopped him.
And this white-haired young man naturally stepped in to stop Nie Zihao's behavior on the side.
In the Sword Qi Continent, there is a sentence that has been regarded as a wise saying by generations of sword qi cultivators, and that is: In the Sword Qi Continent, strength is respected.
Mu Wufeng didn't think so, he thought that in today's Sword Qi Continent, he just took strength too seriously, and ignored the original purpose of improving strength, that is, he could protect his loved ones from being harmed by others, instead of using his own sword qi to hurt others, so at the last moment, he risked offending Nie Zihao and offending the Tengu Sect, and rescued Ah Kun, who was calmly facing death.
Feeling Nie Zihao's fierce gaze at him, Mu Wufeng didn't care, but said lightly: "Brother Nie, it's understandable that you don't give this Ah Kun brother that rain pill, but Brother Ah Kun is begging you like this, besides, he is still an unarmed ordinary person without sword qi cultivation, there is no need to kill the killer." β
Nie Zihao didn't care what Mu Wufeng said, but burst out the majestic sword qi in his body, with a strong killing intent on his face, ready to kill the guy in front of him who challenged his majesty, and find his own field.
But a swordsman beside Nie Zihao hurriedly grabbed Nie Zihao, who was burned with anger, and whispered in his ear: "Young Sect Master, that silver-haired young man, is a disciple sent by the Holy Sword Sect to compete with us for the Rain Flower, if we make a move now, then we will violate the order issued by the Holy Sword Sect, and such a consequence is something that our Heavenly Dog Sect cannot bear." β
The order that this swordsman said in his mouth was stipulated by the Holy Sword Sect, and he couldn't fight in the place where the rain flower appeared, but could only fight in the process of competing for the rain flower, and the death and injury were all in peace.
After hearing the words of the swordsman beside him, this Nie Zihao also withdrew the surging sword qi emanating from his body, and said to Mu Wufeng with a fierce face: "Boy, what Young Master Ben wants to do, you are not qualified to take care of today's affairs, Young Master Ben has written it down, and when it comes to the matter of Yu Yanhua's appearance, you better not come, otherwise Young Master Ben will call you to come and go." β
Mu Wufeng also responded to Nie Zihao in a cold voice: "Don't worry, I will definitely go to the land where the rain flower is born." β
Then, Nie Zihao led a few entourages beside him and walked out of the auction house with a vigorous attitude and returned to their inn.
And Mu Wufeng walked to Ah Kun, who was still kneeling on the ground, helped Ah Kun up, and said: "Ah Kun, remember, don't kneel to anyone other than your parents and master at any time, this dignity is our most precious thing, and we must not give it up easily." β
After listening to Mu Wufeng's teachings to him, Ah Kun touched the tears on his face with his hand and nodded aggrievedly.
Then Ding Zitong, who was standing next to Mu Wufeng, asked with a concerned face: "Ah Kun, what kind of illness does your mother have, and I want you to beg for the rain pill this time." β
Ah Kun then replied: "I don't know much about my mother's strange disease, but since I can remember, my mother has this strange disease, and every day there will be a few hours to become like a puppet, I don't know what to do, the condition has worsened a lot in the past few months, lying in bed all day, unconscious, many doctors have come to see it, and I can't do anything about my mother's illness." β
After Yang Jie listened to the symptoms described by Ah Kun, he said to Mu Wufeng's sword qi: "Such symptoms are indeed a little weird, but they are somewhat similar to the symptoms of refining a real sword puppet from our Underworld Puppet Sect in the Central Continent. β
When he heard the three words of the Netherworld Puppet Sect, Mu Wufeng's fists suddenly clenched, because it was this Netherworld Sect that destroyed his father's Sword God Sect and created the tragedy of the Sword God Sect, these things made Mu Wufeng hate this Netherworld Sect to the core.
Now that Mu Wufeng heard that this symptom was actually related to the Hades Puppet Sect, and the Hades Puppet Sect had always used the swordsman's own sword qi to refine the sword puppet, but now there was such a hurtful thing as refining a real sword puppet that happened to the Hades Puppet Sect, then he would be even more obligated to take care of this matter, and he would not allow the Hades Puppet Sect to harm other innocent people within the scope of his ability, and create many more stories of life and death.
Although Mu Wufeng didn't have any magic pills on his body that could treat Ah Kun's mother, he still decided to go and see Ah Kun's mother's situation in person, determine the true extent of the matter, and then make plans.
Then Mu Wufeng said to Ah Kun: "Let's go, Ah Kun, take me to your house, see what your mother's situation is now, and then we will make the next decision." β
Ah Kun also nodded, and walked out of the auction hall with Mu Wufeng and his party, and walked towards a thatched hut in the middle of nowhere...
