Because this girl's body was entirely still!
Seeing that Jun Mo Xie had looked in her direction, the girl raised her head to the crescent moon and said in a confident manner, "That's right, apart from Jun Mo Xie, there's likely no other genius of this level in this world! A third level Venerable at the age of 18... how shocking, and how terrifying!"
"Dare I ask who this lady is? How did you know me?" Jun Mo Xie asked with a faint smile as he sat down in a leisurely manner. Secretly, he'd already prepared himself. The moment there was any slight anomaly, he would immediately hide into the Hongjun Pagoda!
Safety was his first priority!
"Lady? Hurhur..." The girl smiled lightly, her voice somewhat airy. Her skirt fluttered lightly in the wind, and under the illumination of the moonlight, her lithe figure looked even more vulnerable. It was as if a slightly larger wind would snap her willowy waist in two...
Her voice was indifferent, without any emotion."Just now, the conflict between the the experts of the Misty Illusory Manor and the Holy Lands was caused by you, right?"
"This lady, you sure knows how to joke; do you think that I have the ability to cause nine great Saint Emperors to turn into enemies with each other?" Jun Mo Xie laughed aloud without a change in expression. He shook his head helplessly, as if the words of the other party was extremely ludicrous.
But deep in his heart, Jun Mo Xie was actually gasping with shock! Just who was this girl? To actually say such words? Could it be...
"Perhaps you don't know who I am!" The girl smiled coldly with her back still turned to Jun Mo Xie as she continued."800 years ago, there were some who called me... 'All Seeing Rakshesha'. In the War for Seizing the Heavens that year, the famed stealth techniques that those strange races were so adept with were completely worthless before me, without exceptions! Their invisibility tricks instead made them easier for me to kill."
Cold sweat poured out of Jun Mo Xie's body, not out of amazement at that girl's shocking eyesight, but...
800 years ago! A great great great granny! This tender-looking young girl... was actually a living breathing old freak?! Even calling her a great great great granny was probably not enough! At the very least, she would be the great great great granny of a great great great granny!
If she'd participated in the War for Seizing the Heavens 800 years ago, wouldn't that mean that at that time, this girl had at least a Venerable level of strength? Which meant to say that she was at least 80 to 100 years old 800 years ago?
Jun Mo Xie's heart thumped heavily. Wouldn't that mean that this was a thousand year old demoness?
The white-robed girl continued calmly."300 years ago, in the other War for Seizing the Heavens, 15 of the strange races's Supremacy Enduring Heavens died in my hands, directly resulting in their loss!"
She chuckled softly a few times and continued."The so-called steal techniques of this world are completely worthless in my eyes! Did you think that your little parlour trick can escape my eyes? Jun Mo Xie, you should understand now, just how pitiful your feeble attempt at denying is to me!"
"Lady, you're truly great and noble! You're the heroine of all mankind ah... When I return, I'll definitely erect a plaque in your honour, offering incense on it every day in hopes of your longevity... But, this matter really has nothing to do with me; I don't even know what happened! Can you please don't malign me like that..."
How could Jun Mo Xie admit his involvement towards his own grand plan?Besides... you say that you've lived for over a thousand years? How about I tell you that I'm the Nine Nether First Young Master? Would you believe me? Since the time that it'd appeared in this world, the Yin Yang Escape art has never been seen through before. Who are you to claim that you've seen through it? Bring out some evidence first!
So Young Master Jun naturally denied everything."All this Young Master did just now was soak in a bath. Is there anything wrong in that? Lady, could it be that I've committed some kind of crime by bathing here?"
"Sharp mouthed as expected! Jun Mo Xie, I've heard that you're a person who always does things in an extreme manner, but you're also a person who dares to admit to your own actions, an open and aboveboard young man! But after seeing you today, I'm greatly disappointed! You're just a little coward who dares to do, but doesn't have the courage to admit!" The girl's voice was filled with great disappointment, and her tone grew somewhat colder.
"This lady, you've wounded me with your words! If it's something that I've done, this Young Master would usually never shirk responsibility. But if it wasn't me, no one can dream about pinning it on my head!" Jun Mo Xie had a wronged expression on his face as he continued."I can't simply admit to every crime that people accused me with right? What logic is there in that... this lady, am I right?"
"Jun Mo Xie, after doing something, you actually don't dare to admit to it. Are you still a man!?" The girl snorted coldly and said.
"About this... this Young Master is even more speechless. Lady, I wasn't wearing anything when I was bathing just now; whether I'm a man or not, is there still a need for me to clarify? Such a long and large thing... could it be that you, Miss All Seeing Rakshesha, did not see it? Does a woman have that thing?" Jun Mo Xie chuckled in a roguish manner, continuing to deny. You're a thousand year old demoness? Then I'll just use my young age to play punk with you!
"You!... Shameless!" The girls' body shook and her voice grew sharp.
"This lady, we don't even know each other, you shouldn't go around accusing people like that; that's even more shameless!" Jun Mo Xie did not budge a single inch. Against those despicable old bastards at the three Holy Lands, if this Young Master deals with them like a honourable gentlemen, perhaps even my bones would have turned to dust long ago...
The girl's body shook, and she suddenly floated down from atop the tree, as if she was supported by a weightless cable. By the time her feet touched the ground, a full quarter of an hour had gone by! Moreover, she had hung in the air the whole time, and her actions could be said to be slow to the extreme!
Jun Mo Xie's eyes shrunk, and for the first time, he somewhat believed the words that the girl had said.
Just her shocking ability to hang in the air was not something that even Saint Emperor experts could do!
Although Saint Emperors could hover in the air and could even cover tens of zhang of distance in an instant with ease, to be able to hang motionlessly in the air, and even speak while doing so, was definitely impossible for them!
One must know that to hang in the air like that, one must hold on to the breath of air in their lungs. The moment they opened their mouth to speak, the breath of air would be gone. How could one still maintain their balance like that?
But this girl had done it! And she'd done it with such ease!
In the instant that she landed, Jun Mo Xie finally saw her true appearance. In a second, Jun Mo Xie's suspicion about her increased greatly again.
Because this was clearly a young lady in her 20s at most! This girl was at the prime of her beauty; her eyes were as clear as phoenixes, and her nose was sharp and cute. Her cherry-like lips, and the white and tender cheeks framed her face perfectly. Her hair was black and silky, and it was difficult to find even a single strand of white hair on her head. The look of innocence on her face was comparable to even Dugu Xiao Yi. Just by standing there, she exuded a charm of nobility and pride.
She was as a bright clear moon high up in the sky, not allowing herself to be touched by anyone!
Her face had a faint shade of pink, and shyness. It was as if she was feeling somewhat embarrassed after having seen Jun Mo Xie's nakedness... And this look of shyness was exactly the main reason for the doubt in Jun Mo Xie's heart!
How can a thousand year old demoness possibly be so shy towards a man?
Jun Mo Xie's body shifted backwards as soon as she landed, maintaining a distance of 20 zhang. This was a relatively safe distance for him.
At such a distance, as long as Jun Mo Xie was wary enough, it was impossible for anyone to attack him! Because at this distance, all he needed to do was to move his thoughts, and he would be pulled into the Hongjun Pagoda before any attack could reach him!
Although this girl was exceedingly beautiful, Jun Mo Xie was completely unmoved! In fact, he even had the mind to avoid her as much as possible. He haven't even settled the problems with the girls at home... if he continued picking up more troubles, that would be too much.
Although this was a world where it was common to have multiple wives and concubines, but just the few girls he had; whether it was Guan Qing Han, Dugu Xiao Yi, or Mei Xue Yan, all of them were strong characters who were fiercely jealous!
Although these girls could pretend as if they didn't mind on the surface, but in their hearts, they definitely had their opinions. It's just that it hadn't been convenient for them to express their feelings thus far.
In addition to these feelings, they each had their own reasons for not giving up on each other, which was why peace had barely been maintained. These girls could only be considered to have accepted each other...
Jun Mo Xie was also quite stressed out by the situation. The problem with Guan Qing Han had only just ended, but the matters of the rest also snapped closely at his heels, not allowing him a chance at a breather at all...
As the saying goes, "One monk carries two buckets of water on a pole, two monks carry one bucket between them, and three monks have no drinking water"... Right now, Young Master Jun was exactly in a 'having no water to drink' state. Because there were simply too many monks at home... Normally, there's only one tigress in each family, but there were quite a few sitting in Young Master Jun's backyard. And these were all the fiercest of the fiercest tigress...
At this time, if Jun Mo Xie so much as lifted his chin in the direction of this girl... a huge fight of the inner courts would be inevitable!
So the moment he saw this beautiful girl, Young Master Jun completely did not consider the problem of seniority and such. The first thing he thought of was, "Please do not fall in love with me! If there's anything about me that you fancy, please tell me; I promise to change it!"
"Jun Mo Xie... you're indeed a shameless little fellow!" The girl stared at him and continued."By yourself, you stole Hai Wu Ya and He Zhi Qiu's belongings, and at the most appropriate time, you even set Bai Qi Feng up! Those three poor fellows... to actually end up being played in the palms of a junior like you, causing such a huge misunderstanding between the three Holy Lands and Misty Illusory Manor! Such behaviour is truly insidious! Jun Mo Xie, I don't wish to hurt you, I only hope... that you come back with me, and explain everything clearly before everyone. After that, I'll let you go, how about it?"
