Chapter 39: You Owe This Highness Another Favour

Following, a series of soft Elemental Energy fell from the sky and enveloped the scattered pieces of stone caused by the black-clothed old mans sword aura and slowly pieced together one by one. In just a moment, the bluestone1 floorings cracks slowly closed and was restored to its original state.

Upon seeing this, Lou Mu Yan retracted the Secret Skill she was about to use, and the spider-thread-like Mental Energy also dispersed into nothingness, submerged in her Sea of Consciousness, as if it had never appeared before.

Woman, you owe This Highness another favour. A male voice with a sense of magnetic maturity brushed past Lou Mu Yans ears like a spring breeze.

The coldness in Lou Mu Yans eyes was replaced by a faint smileit was indeed Ming Xiu, that devilish man, that acted.

When the giant blazing palm struck, she felt the Elemental Energy fluctuation belonged to Ming Xiu, and an inexplicable sense of trust rose in her heart.

Lou Mu Yan turned around upon sensing something and raised her eyes to see the valiant, tall, and imposing man, wearing a silver mask, elegantly walk over.

His red robe danced flamboyantly with the wind, and a domineering aura naturally exuded from him, defeating all the men present. Others were like his foil, just like how the light of fireflies could never compete with the bright moon.

Monarch Ming! The black-clothed old man clutched his chest, his face extremely ugly, while his eyes revealed slight fear. He was afraid of this man that walked towards him from the bottom of his heart.

Monarch Ming, the Highness of the Nine-Layer Hall2 that the Ming Alliance of Merchants was subordinate to. His identity and strength were mysterious and unfathomable, while he acted on whatever he felt like doing, and even had the nickname God of Murder. Amongst the Sword Monarchs, he was unmatched, and even Sword Sovereigns didnt dare provoke him.

Ming Xiu looked askance at him, his voice as cold as water: You recognise This Highness?

The name of Monarch Ming has long resounded throughout Tianling Continent. Although this old man has never met Your Highness, but I have already heard of Your Highnesss deeds. The black-clothed old man barely managed a smile while his posture remained very low.

Rumour had it that Monarch Ming always wore a flamboyant red robe with a silver, dark-patterned mask, was arbitrary, arrogant, and tyrannical, and upon first glance, it was indeed as such.

Seeing the complete reversal of attitude by the black-clothed old man, treating the red-clothed man with respect, the crowd of onlookers wondered: who was this man who had a noble and impressive temperament?

It was no wonder that the people present didnt know the name of Monarch Ming. Although he had long become famous throughout Tianling Continent, but that was mainly limited to the high-level Sword Masters. Those Sword Masters beneath Sword Monarch Stage had no way of engaging in many of the lands secrets.

Humph, youve heard of This Highnesss name and yet you still dare be so impudent at the entrance to the Ming Alliance of Merchants. Arent you very good! Ming Xius voice carried a chill and people couldnt help but shudder.

I did not indent to offend Monarch Ming. I simply had some disputes with a junior, so I do hope that Monarch Ming does not blame me. The black-clothed old man bent slightly. He could only bow his head in front of formidable strength.

Towards Monarch Ming, the black-clothed old man couldnt afford to resist or disrespect him. This mans power was unfathomable, his behaviour was devilish and cold, and his temperament was even more capricious than those from the Ghost Sects. Regardless of who provoked him, theyd end up worse than death.

Ming Xiu looked askance at Lou Mu Yan and a rare expression of a smile rose in his narrow phoenix eyes. With a flip of his hand, a medicine bottle appeared in his palm.

It is the negligence of my Ming Alliance of Merchants to allow Young Miss Lou to have been threatened the moment you stepped out of the entrance, right after participating in our auction. Consider this bottle of medicine as an apology. Ming Xius voice was cold and indifferent, and one couldnt hear any emotions. He handed the bottle in his palm to Lou Mu Yan, This Highness will give Young Miss Lou an explanation.

Lou Mu Yan rolled her eyes inwardlyhe sure could act. But she was close to being in the limelight because of the Marrow Cleansing Pill, so if this devilish man displayed any hint that they recognised each other, then thatd be an even bigger problem.

Thank you Monarch Ming! Lou Mu Yan respectfully reached out her hand and took the medicine bottle, pulled off its cap then and there and shook the light-yellow medicinal powder onto her wound.

As soon as the wound on the wrist came into contact with the medicinal powder, the blood naturally stopped. The burning sensation also vanished and was replaced by a refreshing sensation. As expected, she knew this devils items would be extraordinary. He just casually took out a bottle and it was powder from crushed Grade 3 healing pills.

The black-clothed old mans heart thumped erratically, and the strong sense of unease grew even stronger. He secretly regretted attacking Lou Mu Yan at the entrance to the Ming Alliance of Merchants and shouldve snuck into the Lou Mansion at night, kidnap the beast and kill her.

As a Sword Monarch, even if you arent ashamed of attacking a kid at the Great Sword Master Stage, This Highness feels it to be irksome.

Ming Xiu stretched out his hand lazily and clapped twice. Two masked men in black exuding the pressure of an expert suddenly appeared from the shadows, carrying a dangerous aura. Their cultivation base was also above the old man.

Master! The two knelt respectfully and awaited Ming Xius order.

Give him to the Law Enforcement Unit. Those who dared provoke the Alliance must be punished according to the law.

The Ming Alliance of Merchants had announced several rules of theirs long ago, and even organised a special Law Enforcement Unit that specifically punished those that dared provoke the Alliance, or those that had malicious intents towards the Alliance. After being arrested, they wouldnt be killed, but they definitely wouldnt end up nice.

Upon hearing Monarch Mings plan to give him to the Law Enforcement Unit, terror rose in the black-clothed old mans heart. He knew about that place, and heard that after entering, living was worse than death, and no one would be able to exit without peeling a few layers of skin3.

Please be merciful, Monarch Ming! I am the Outer Elder of our Yin Sect and plead of Your Highness to not bother with this matter considering our sect. I will never offend the Ming Alliance of Merchants next time. The black-clothed old mans posture was very low. Even though he was a Sword Monarch, but in front of Monarch Ming, he was nothing. He didnt dare provoke this arrogant and domineering man at all.

Ming Xiu squinted at the black-clothed old mangreedy for life and fearful of death, it truly was a waste of his cultivation as a Sword Monarch. Normally hed be too lazy to take action, but this time this person hurt Lou Mu Yan, which made him exceptionally displeased. He was unforgivable.

Take him away. Ming Xiu waved his hand casually at his two subordinates.

Monarch Ming, you cannot treat me like this! I am a member of the Yin Sect, dont you push people too far. The black-clothed man was essentially a Sword Monarch. He was already disgraced enough from acting so lowly before, yet Monarch Ming still didnt give him any face.

So what about the Ying Sect? It has never entered This Highnesss eyes. Ming Xiu huffed coldly. He had long been displeased with the Yin Sect. So what if he killed him in public, let alone just throwing him to the law Enforcement Unit?

The black-clothed old mans heart sank. He mobilised all the Elemental Energy he had and gathered it in his palm, then bit his fingertip until it bled and quickly chanted an incantation. Hed attempt to escape using the Yin Sects escape skill, the Blood Elusion Method. If he could successfully escape, then he wouldnt be forcefully captured by the Ming Alliance of Merchants Law Enforcement Unit. As for how to deal with the arrest order given by the Ming Alliance of Merchants, he would think of it later.

A ray of blood-red light slowly emerged from the black-clothed old man. Just when it was about to envelop him whole, a golden chain flew out from each of the hands of Ming Xius two black-clothed subordinate, locking him in place. It even interrupted the secret hand-seals he was performing to use to escape.

The black-clothed old mans eyes were full of dismay and attempted to use his sword skills to resist. However, he couldnt utilise any of his Elemental Energy as they were forcefully suppressed by the golden chains, and it was then that horror rose in his eyes.

As he was being taken away be the two, the black-clothed old man turned his head and glared at Lou Mu Yan with hostility and killing intent. It was all that little girls fault today. If he could come out alive from the Ming Alliance of Merchants Law Enforcement Units control, then he must refine her into a mummy to dispel his hatred.

Lou Mu Yan sneeredthis damned old bastard even had killing intent towards her now, but who knew whod kill who in the future.

The black-clothed Sword Monarch expert being locked by the golden chain, then disappearing with the two men in black caused everyone present to look at Ming Xiu with horror and fearjust who was this man?
