Chapter 130: Showing Favor at the Right Time

 Although everyone was deceived by the Yue family today, the deaths of the more than one hundred people in front of them can be said to be voluntary -

With the treasure in front of them, they became greedy and wanted to seize it, so it was only natural for them to take risks for it!

As monks, opportunities and risks always coexist, and this risk is something they must take.

All treasures require life to fight for. You can't think you are great just because you get the treasure, and blame others for not helping you if you can't fight for it?

They have witnessed the failure and death of others, and they should have known the horror of the spiritual fire. So if they were smarter, clear-headed, and made a decision in time, they would not be one of the more than a hundred people, but one of the survivors.

"Shut up! She saved you, so of course you can talk without any hesitation!" the male cultivator retorted, looking dissatisfied.

The timing when Mo Jiuwei showed up happened to be when the female cultivator in red was about to be pulled onto the stage, so there was no problem at all with Mo Jiuwei saving her.

The male cultivator believed that this was why the female cultivator would speak for Mo Jiuwei.

And her Taoist partner's death was so unjust. She and the red-clothed female cultivator were just one step apart. Why didn't Mo Jiuwei save her but saved the red-clothed woman?

This is unfair!

"Well, if I remember correctly... it seems that you two Taoists have been unfriendly to them all the way, quite provocative, right?" A male cultivator wearing a jade crown couldn't stand it anymore and spoke out.

The long-faced female cultivator kept making sarcastic remarks along the way. Sometimes she complained that Liu Feng and his group had too many people, and sometimes she complained that they brought a little kid with them who held them back.

It was the same here. She clearly didn't want to go up, but she still used words to instigate Liu Feng and the others to go up. It was obvious that she had bad intentions.

The male cultivators of Yuguan didn't understand. They were the ones who started the trouble first, so how could this person have the nerve to blame the little kid?

The others also felt quite polite after hearing this. Even those who had been shaken at first couldn't help but feel guilty and ashamed after hearing this, and they all spoke up for Mo Jiuwei -

"That's right. You've already owed him a favor by being able to survive. It would be fine if you didn't thank him, but you actually still have a grudge against him?"

"Isn't this just being ungrateful after getting the benefit?"

"If you have the ability, why don't you come out and save your partner yourself? You don't have the ability to cause trouble to the Yue family, but you blame your benefactor! You are pretending to be affectionate. If you were really affectionate, you would have taken your partner's place when they took him away. Why is it you standing here now and not her?"

"Bah, I saved a ungrateful wolf!"

The male cultivator didn't expect that everyone was on the side of the little kid. Now he was suddenly targeted by so many people. He was angry but dared not say anything. He could only lower his head and swallow his anger without saying anything.

When these people saw that he didn't say anything, they glanced at him with contempt, didn't say anything else, and instead thanked Mo Jiuwei.

Mo Jiuwei nodded, taking it as acceptance of their gratitude.

What the male cultivator said did not affect Mo Jiuwei's mood.

There are too many people in the world, and people die every day in monsters and fights. Not to mention that Mo Jiuwei can't protect them, even if she can protect them all, can she still care about everything?

If the two hundred people today can all resist the temptation and not be moved by the spiritual fire, then when the Yue family wants to force them, Mo Jiuwei may stand up and take away the spiritual fire early to break the conspiracy.

But as others have said, before the Yue family even used any means, they themselves had lost their minds when faced with the spiritual fire, and were scrambling to try...

In this situation, if she came forward directly, those people would not remember her kindness, and might even blame her for stealing their treasure!

Now these people seem to be saying "fair words", but how many of them are actually sincere, and how many of them are just taking advantage of others and have to express their attitude, who knows!

After several lives, Mo Jiuwei has learned one thing, that is, kindness should be used in the right place, and kindness should be shown at the right time!

Otherwise, it would be thankless, so it is better not to work.

"You guys, why don't you let us out quickly?!" Hu Jiu looked at the remaining Xiao Ruo and the others and scolded, "Or do you also want to die with your master?"

There is a mechanism underground. It goes without saying that Yue Qi's men must be guarding the exit.

If these people are willing to open the door and let them out themselves, that would be the best. If they still resist, then we will have to use force!

"Ahem...Aunt Ruo, let them out, and ask the people outside to leave as well."

A male voice spoke weakly.

Everyone looked towards the source of the voice, and saw that the "young master" who had been lying on the couch now sat up, holding his chest and speaking with difficulty.

He was covered in blood, and it was hard to look at.

"Fifth Young Master, this..." The woman named Xiao Ruo was a little hesitant.

The Fifth Young Master shook his head. "I told you long ago that this was too evil, but Eighth Sister refused to listen and insisted on doing so. Our Yue Family is at the end of its rope after what happened. We should not make any more enemies, or we will be courting our own demise."

"Fifth Young Master, Yue Qi is dead, and the Qiankun bag has turned to ashes. Doesn't that mean your antidote is gone too?" A steward named Lin Yu who was standing at the door thought of something and asked with a pale face.

"Forget it, this is probably retribution." The Fifth Young Master laughed bitterly.

Xiao Ruo lowered her head and started crying.

Lin Yu's eyes were filled with sorrow, and then he became angry. "The old master clearly wanted you to be the new head of the family, but it was the Eighth Miss who killed him and poisoned you. If we had known that things would turn out this way, Xiao Ruo and I would have killed her at the risk of our lives, and then there would have been no trouble!"

"Yes, we might as well listen to the old man. At worst, we can sell the spiritual fire. The resources we get in return will be enough for our Yue family to move to a higher level. Why should we end up like this? Miss Eighth doesn't have to..." Xiao Ruo said with sobs.

The Yue family is now in a state of great loss. Not only have they lost their spiritual fire, but they have also offended so many people.

This matter will definitely spread throughout the continent after today. Then, the Yue family will not only become a laughing stock, but will also be unable to raise their heads in Shihan City.

It can be said that after this incident, the Yue family will be seriously injured, and even... it will be divided up by other families under the guise of justice.

And this is all because of the ambitions of Yue Ling and Yue Qi, mother and daughter!

"It's my fault that I discovered it too late and didn't stop Eighth Sister earlier."

"No, don't blame the Fifth Young Master. It was Lin Yu and I who should have realized it earlier and told the old man..."

The Fifth Young Master suddenly coughed a few more times, this time quite violently, his neck and face all turned red, and finally he spat out a large mouthful of black blood.

After that, he collapsed on the couch, barely breathing.

"Fifth Young Master!"

Xiao Ruo and Lin Yu exclaimed and ran towards him.
