Chapter 90
“Just telling the truth.” Faced with the furious Heavenly Mirror’s Heir, Mo Jian remained indifferent.
Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Mirror’s Heir was so enraged that he actually laughed.
“Very well! You say my technique is far inferior to yours!”
“Then let me see for myself!” As he spoke, the Heavenly Mirror’s Heir formed a seal with one hand.
Zheng!
Suddenly! Centered around him, the heavens and earth were filled with mirrors radiating divine light, illuminating everything within.
Many young elites were horrified to find their techniques could no longer be used!
Some even felt that under the illumination of those mirrors, their very souls were about to be reflected out.
“Heavens!! The Heavenly Mirror’s Heir is actually this terrifying!”
“The Heavenly Mirror Technique, an innate divine art—if not for Mo Jian’s sudden emergence, this man would likely have entered the Supreme Academy!”
“Though Mo Jian possesses the Dual-Pupil and Supreme Bone, he is still too young—he may not be able to withstand this move!!”
Feeling the terrifying pressure of the attack, everyone was deeply shocked.
The Heavenly Mirror’s Heir became even more arrogant.
He could barely wait to see Mo Jian kneel and beg for mercy.
Yet, facing the Mirror of All Under Heaven, Mo Jian’s dual pupils flickered slightly.
With a touch of disdain, he spoke: “I already said, your technique…”
“Is too weak!”
As his voice fell—
Buzz!!
An incomparably brilliant, supremely domineering power erupted from his chest.
At once, the heavens changed color.
A vast and terrifying figure manifested between heaven and earth.
That figure seemed to transcend the ages, and with a casual palm…
Bang!! Bang!! Bang!!!
The Heavenly Mirror’s Heir’s so-called Mirror of All Under Heaven shattered like ordinary glass.
He himself was sent flying, his life or death unknown!
In an instant, the entire Mo Family fell silent—a mere nine-year-old child actually possessed such mighty power.
This Supreme Bone—was it truly so terrifying!?
And not only did this youth possess a Supreme Emperor Bone, he had yet to even use his dual pupils—what a monstrous talent!
“I told you, your technique is too weak.”
Only Mo Jian’s indifferent voice echoed within the Mo Family.
The rest looked at the dual-pupiled youth with complicated expressions.
It was as if they were seeing a young Great Emperor—though still a child, he already bore the will to devour the heavens!
Mo Tianli, for his part, was immensely proud…
Just as he was about to speak, ready to build momentum for his son—
A voice tinged with sarcasm sounded from the dueling stage.
“Heh~ Using a stolen bone and pilfered techniques—seems you’re quite pleased with yourself.”
“Who dares cause trouble in the Mo Family!!”
“How bold!!”
“Who is it!? Who dares insult the Mo Family’s prodigy!!”
The Mo Family’s members flew into a rage. Mo Tianli even stood up immediately, unleashing his Star Holding cultivation without reservation.
He would never allow anyone to ‘slander’ his son!
“Oh~ what’s this… can’t even be criticized?” The voice was somewhat tipsy.
Like that of a drunkard—and everyone turned toward the source of the sound.
Then—all eyes suddenly contracted sharply.
The voice came from the same dueling platform where Mo Long had stood.
A disheveled youth dressed messily, holding a wine gourd, sat casually atop Mo Long’s body, drinking leisurely.
Mo Long lay on the ground, life or death unknown.
No one had noticed—this man had already defeated Mo Long!
And Mo Long was a peak Heavenly Origin genius, perhaps even half-step Star Holding!
Just who was this person!?
Feeling everyone’s gaze, the youth took another sip from his waist-hung gourd.
“So, was I wrong?”
“Hmph! I don’t know which family’s youth you are, but I won’t lower myself to your level! Call out your elder!”
Mo Tianli snorted coldly, though inwardly he was filled with dread.
Even he hadn’t noticed when Mo Long had been defeated—the youth before him was clearly even younger than Mo Long.
To defeat Mo Long so silently, he must have reached the peak of Heavenly Origin—or even Star Holding!
The background behind such a monstrous genius… must be terrifyingly powerful.
This made Mo Tianli hesitate. Otherwise, he would’ve already struck the youth with thunderous force.
“Hahaha!! An elder? My family’s elder?” The youth burst into laughter.
Then, with undisguised disdain, he said: “And what are you supposed to be, to even deserve to meet my elder?”
“You insolent brat!!”
“You think this is a place where you can act wantonly!?”
“You dare insult the Canglan Mo Family—you must die!!”
In an instant, four or five Star Holding auras erupted, sealing off the space around the youth.
“Pfft~ This half-baked power…”
The youth lazily raised the gourd and drank again.
Then, he lowered the gourd—
Zheng!!!
A long sword howled down from the sky.
Whooosh—
Behind him, a massive phantom of a drunken dream appeared.
Countless dreamlike illusions of drunken revelers sat within—one sword, one warm cup of wine, gazing down at the world of clouds and mortals.
“Star Holding Realm!!”
“A Sacred Physique!!”
Everyone was stunned!
Those in the Star Holding Realm could summon astral phenomena—but those with special physiques, such as Divine or Sacred Physiques, could call forth even greater manifestations.
Just like this youth now.
“Drunken dreams of the mortal world, one sword for all beings—I am the Su Family’s seventeenth sequence: Wine Sword Immortal, Su Zhong!”
“Bone age: 23. Star Holding Third Layer. Heard of Mo Family’s prodigies, so I came to challenge…”
“Unfortunately, now that I’ve seen… I’m quite disappointed…” Su Zhong slurred drunkenly.
“Su Family!!”
“Su Family? Aren’t they the Mo Family’s in-laws?”
“That’s right! But I’ve never heard of such a monster from the Su Family!!”
The crowd was bewildered at Su Zhong’s words.
They all knew of the Su Family—an in-law family to the Mo Family, sparsely populated and always dependent on the Mo Family.
And this youth, only twenty-three, had such cultivation that few in the entire Canglan Domain could rival him.
They could only assume that by coincidence, a powerful hidden family happened to share the surname Su.
But—why did he say Mo Jian’s bone and technique were stolen??
Only one woman, hiding in the shadows and knowing the truth, now wore a twisted expression.
“Could it be!! Could what that useless Su Tian said actually be true!!”
Before the fallout, Su Tian had said he might’ve found the main bloodline—but the woman had dismissed it.
Now it seemed… disaster was imminent!
“You little brat! Do you think having some cultivation gives you the right to spew nonsense!?”
Seeing the strange looks from those around, Mo Tianli grew anxious.
“Oh? Then I’ll stand right here today—who among the Mo Family dares call themselves a prodigy?” Su Zhong spoke with disdain.
Mo Tianli’s face darkened.
“You think the one you defeated… is our Mo Family’s true genius?”
“Mo Yanyue! Step forward!”
Mo Tianli barked. Since he had dared organize this grand genius exhibition, he naturally had thorough preparations.
This Mo Yanyue was one of the twelve Mo Family Guards, trained from youth, practicing the Blood-Burning Secret Art. Though her life would be short, she had already reached the fifth tier of Star Holding!
She would definitely be able to cut down this arrogant brat!
But—after his voice fell, Mo Yanyue did not appear.
Instead, the crowd scattered in panic—
A black-clad youth slowly approached from the rear, carrying a corpse.
Mo Tianli recognized it at a glance—that corpse was Mo Yanyue’s!
“Su Family, fifteenth sequence—Su Xiaofan, here to attend the ceremony.”
