Unexpectedly, the Sikong Family and Duanmu Family actually took a passive stand in the face of the pressure, huddling up and enduring silently. There wasn't the slightest bit of intention to seek help from Jun Mo Xie at all! The Blizzard Silver City simply recalled all their members without hesitation...
The Blizzard Silver City was undergoing a period of reconstruction, and with so many people coming back again all of a sudden, it definitely increased the pressure. However, these people also increased the labour force... so the city was still fine.
The Dongfang Family had been forced onto an exceedingly thorny path as well.
But this bunch of people was even more stubborn. They would rather fight back to the bitter end than ask for Jun Mo Xie's help...
This series of unexpected results caused the three Holy Lands to turned somewhat anxious, especially Mo Wu Dao.
From the looks of it, the pressure they were exerting was too weak! Mo Wu Dao was about to direct the next round of actions when the situation changed again.
At this time, the Saint Emperors Palace received an emergency summons from the Misty Illusory Manor to immediately send their strongest Saint King and Saint Emperor experts to Tian Fa Forest, join up with the experts from the Misty Illusory Manor and stop the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master from breaking through the seal!
Just as the four Saint Kings and the two Saint Emperors from the Elusive World of Immortals were about to set off, Mo Wu Dao approached one of the Saint Emperor.
"Senior Zhan, junior wishes to trouble you to help with a matter since you're going to Tian Fa Forest." Mo Wu Dao's tone and posture was exceptionally respectful.
"What's the matter?" This Senior Zhan, who was in a hurry, stopped and asked.
"Senior will definitely see that little thief Jun Mo Xie now that you are going to Tian Fa." Mo Wu Dao said with a light smile."This junior simply hopes that senior can help me pass him a single sentence: Dongfang, Duanmu, Sikong, and Blizzard Silver City... are finished!"
"Dongfang, Duanmu, Sikong, Blizzard Silver City... are finished? That's all?"
"Yes."
"Fine! I've remembered it. I'll definitely help Palace Lord pass the message." Senior Zhan muttered with disinterest as he soared into the sky and disappeared...
Mo Wu Dao's white robes fluttered in the wind as he looked at the empty sky with a wry smile."Jun Mo Xie, even if you crawl like a rat into your little hole, I will still make you crawl out again obediently to accept your death! After killing my little brother, you think that you can hide away like a gutless turtle and continue living peacefully? There aren't such great deals in the world! I, Mo Wu Dao, will let you learn that there are some people who cannot be offended in this world. If you offend some people whom you cannot afford to provoke, even the lives of your entire family will not be enough to pay for the crime!"

Jun Mo Xie revolved the Yin Yang Escape art to its maximum capabilities and when he dove 40, 50 zhang downwards, he could already feel the powers of the Beguiling Mist weakening. At 100 zhang , he could feel that he had already completely escaped the confines of the mist and he could move through the ground at ease!
"This Beguiling Mist is much weaker than the Nine Nether First Young Master's under the snowy mountain. No—the two are simply incomparable..." Jun Mo Xie thought silently to himself. With a flash of his body, he travelled rapidly through the ground... When he had moved for several hundred zhang , he suddenly felt a strange energy ripple before him. And the further he went, the stronger it felt. It was as if the stones and mud before him had changed into iron...
"Looks like this is the seal that the Illusory Manor set up!" Jun Mo Xie stopped and looked up with slightly raised eyebrows."Or perhaps, this is the exit of the Nine Nethers land?"
At this moment, from a distance near Jun Mo Xie, a loud roar suddenly rang out! This roar was akin to a volcano erupting!
Stunned by this sudden roar, Jun Mo Xie felt his head buzzing; although he had used the energy of the fifth level of the Art of Unlocking Heaven's Fortune to protect his body, it could not completely block out the shocking soundwave! After a long time, he finally regained his senses, only to see that the entire layer of earth was trembling violently!
"This Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master is indeed powerful, as expected of a legendary character!" Jun Mo Xie could not help but exclaim with admiration. From that roar alone, Jun Mo Xie could clearly hear the unwillingness and the fury in his voice! As well as a bone deep untameable spirit!
The legendary figure he had come to find was right in front of him, but Jun Mo Xie hesitated."What if... he's not appreciative after I let him out... ?"
Releasing the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master was undoubtedly a double-edged sword! If he was not careful, he would hurt himself and others! Although the three Holy Lands were exceedingly despicable, the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master was obviously a scary demon who would not submit to anyone also. While he hadn't hurt any ordinary people in the past, it didn't mean that he would be the same still!
Similarly, not everyone knew how to repay kindness. There were plenty of people who were capable of harming their benefactor, and such incidents were not uncommon! Jun Mo Xie couldn't not defend against it...
Who could say that this Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master wasn't this kind of white-eyed wolf? Jun Mo Xie considered his options carefully, forming his conjecture based on the things in the Nine Nether First Young Master's letter, and Mei Xue Yan's account of the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master...
If this Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master really came out, he would definitely turn into the greatest tumour in the side of the Misty Illusory Manor and the three Holy Lands! But this madman was only interested in ruling over everything! Which meant that Tian Fa Forest was also one of the targets for his subjugation!
"What a headache..." Jun Mo Xie stood there silently for a long time, unable to make up his mind.
If this madman really had intentions to subjugate Tian Fa Forest, the threat he posed was definitely much more terrifying than the three Holy Lands! This fellow was not just a madman; he was also an arrogant madman, and an unreasonable madman at the same time!
If this madman was really an ungrateful person, and turned around to bite him, he would definitely be no match for him right now!
As Jun Mo Xie was still hesitating, he suddenly remembered Long Crane's words. The Mystic Phoenix has appeared; the seal is broken!
His eyes lit up. With or without me, the seal is already broken... I might as well take this opportunity to sell a favor... If it works, that'll be for the best. If it doesn't, I'm not truly in much danger with the Yin Yang Escape art. At the most, I'll just lure him away from here...
Now that he had found an "acceptable" reason, Young Master Jun moved quickly. In that moment, he was somewhat anxious in his heart. I must be fast; otherwise if that madman manages to break out before I reach there, wouldn't it just be a wasted trip?
Even with the purple Qi supporting his Yin Yang Escape, greatly improving its power, Jun Mo Xie still spent a great deal of strength before finally burrowing a hole through that damned place... finally with a sou sound, he flew inside!
"F... ck!" Jun Mo Xie could not help but curse aloud as soon as he stepped into the place.
Why is it so cold? Surely this is a little too extreme! Even my soul is about to freeze...
As expected, this was actually a narrow passageway! It was completely dark, and it was impossible to see where it led. The temperature was in fact several times lower than the peak of the snowy mountain!
The howling cold wind was akin to sharp swords, cutting towards him while carrying a terrifying sinister aura... knives?! Jun Mo Xie had only just thought of these words when the cold wind suddenly increased! Hidden within the chilly winds were actually countless sharp blades!
They were long and thin, but virtually unbreakable! As the sounds of the wind grew greater, the blades also became more condensed and more urgent... In the end, whether it be the sound of the wind, or the blades cutting across the air, everything had formed a terrifying, storm-like howl!
Jun Mo Xie could not help but purse his lips with shock.
Such disgusting weather! To think that this Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master was actually able to stay in here for so many years!
All of a sudden—
"F*ck! What's going on? How did this bloody Nine Nethers Frigid Wind and the Nine Nethers Frost Blade get so big all of a sudden? Which idiot did this? Could it be that another little fellow came over again? But this Young Master isn't dead yet! How could anyone come over?"
With a loud roar, Jun Mo Xie saw a ghostly figure flying over from a distance away.
The sharp wind blades actually emitted metallic grating sounds as they collided against this figure's body, causing sparks to fly into the air! The figure completely ignored the blades and in the blink of an eye, he had already disappeared from Jun Mo Xie's eyes, rushing towards the direction the Nine Nethers Frigid Wind was coming from.
Jun Mo Xie wiped a layer of cold sweat from his brows!
So strong! Even a Saint level expert would not dare to charge into such a dense concentration of blades without blocking or dodging. But this fellow actually ran right into it as if it were nothing...
Clanging sounds rang out from the ground, and Jun Mo Xie went forward to take a look. What he saw caused him to suck in a breath of cold air: a Nine Nethers Frost Blade was picked up by the wind, falling into his hand. Surprisingly, the little blade had actually lost its edge!
This was a super strong metal that did not belong to this world! From Jun Mo Xie's initial assessment, the sharpness and sturdiness of these blades were even stronger than the normal blades that he refined using his Power of Gold!
If it was placed in the Xuan Xuan Continent, any one of these Nine Nethers Frost Blades would be a highly contested divine weapon!
Even more amazing was that it was so light that it was almost weightless!
Such a sharp weapon actually lost its edge when it smashed against that person's body! That person's body was simply a little too hard? From the looks of it, he should be the legendary Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master! In any case, other than this madman, there didn't seem to be anyone else in this place...
As for these blades... although they couldn't hurt the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master, could it be that they couldn't hurt other people? These were actual treasures! If the Power of Gold was applied to it and it underwent a bit of refining, its strength would surely rise to another level! The material of these blades was so unique, and they were so light as well. As long as they were refined properly, they would surely display amazing effects. At the very least, they would be better than the other blades. With so many materials here, it was no different from pies dropping from the heavens!
Jun Mo Xie's face lit up with joy as he reached out and grabbed all the blades in front of him. Following the wind, he ran forward happily and collected Nine Nethers Frost Blades as he went... those on the ground, those in the air... even those that were lodged in the walls... the further he went, the more of this stuff he found...
Each blade was only as thick as a chopstick, and each shone with a chilly light. An icy feeling that permeated to the bones could be felt from them just by holding them in one's hands...
