Chapter 948: Target for All

Miao Xiao Miao smiled lightly and said, "Among this batch of people, there are some people with great chances of becoming the future Heart Fantasy City's City Lord. Some are preparing to be the future Spiritual Herbal Gardens' Lord. Others are going to be the future members of the Council of Elders, and some are aiming to become the future Manor Lord. There are even some who are fighting to become the future top expert of the Misty Illusory Manor; the next generation's Guardian Saint!"

"And your accidental arrival disrupted the situation which had stabilized!" Miao Xiao Miao's eyes grew serious as she looked at Jun Mo Xie and explained.

Although she'd explained it in a slow way, Jun Mo Xie could understand the underlying meanings very clearly! It turned out that he'd fallen into a super tensed explosive keg... and he'd even turned into a target for all!

"The Free and Natural Physique that you have is a heaven defying miraculous gift that hasn't appeared in 10,000 years. Tying you to our Misty Illusory Manor is naturally the choice for us. That is a fact, and one that nobody can refute. In fact, all the older generation seniors are in full support of you being the number one choice for propping up the entire Misty Illusory Manor in the future!

"But at the same time... you've also become the strongest competitor for all the factions in here, standing in direct opposition to all of them! Especially the other juniors! Them recognizing your talent and qualifications is one matter, but for them to acknowledge your position is a whole other matter!"

Miao Xiao Miao's petite body was unusually straight. From Jun Mo Xie's direction, she looked like a flawless sculpture. Every single aspect was perfect to the extreme!

Even if an exceedingly picky artist looked at her, he wouldn't be able to find the slightest problem. But it was her words that found their way into Young Master Jun's heart. "So from the first day you came, one thing was determined! That is... no matter what action you take, there will be countless people watching you, determined to not let you succeed smoothly!"

"Only by kicking you down can others have the opportunity to climb up! Otherwise, everyone's paths are simply destined to be blocked by you! Before you truly ascended to the peak of the Misty Illusory Manor, challenges like this will be abound without pause! At anytime and any place!" Miao Xiao Miao looked at him seriously.

Jun Mo Xie could only listen on with a parched expression, his head splitting with pain.

The strengths of these people were naturally nothing much to him. But the problem... was that with him being watched so closely, how would he be able to smoothly continue with his plan, sneaking into the Spiritual Herbal Gardens and stealing some Seven Colored Holy Fruits?

How truly infuriating. Could it be that he must be stared to death by those bunch of idiots?

"Not mentioning the future, let's just take today for example. Because of this outing that you took with high spirits today, those talented disciples of the Misty Illusory Manor large families have gathered in Heart Fantasy City! By tomorrow, more people will have arrived!"

Miao Xiao Miao laughed a little for some reason and continued. "I will not hide this from you. Among these people, I am included as well!"

"Although I am also a person with intentions, they are not necessarily bad. Because I will not fight over anything with you. If I have any intention of obtaining something, even Young Master Mo will not be able to snatch it away from me. Today's invitation was purely out of curiosity towards Young Master. To be able to attract the attention of so many large powers the moment you came, becoming the target of the entire Illusory Manor, I was curious about what kind of person you were." Miao Xiao Miao suddenly started explaining herself for some reason.

Only after she finished explaining did she realize: Why did I explain myself to him? How come it feels like I'm demonstrating a show of force to him, like I'm trying to tell him my aloofness, that I'm standing on the same side as him...

But... It's because I'm afraid that he will misunderstand me. En. But... why am I afraid of him misunderstanding me? What am I thinking... The more she thought, the wilder her thoughts became, and her face turned red for some reason.

"So that's the case! No wonder it's so lively today. And it's going to be even more lively tomorrow?!" Jun Mo Xie laughed, feeling somewhat smug in his heart. A n outstanding person is indeed an outstanding person. There's no helping it; everywhere this Young Master goes, I will inevitably become the center of attention. The moment I arrived here, everyone gathered for my sake. How amazing was that! What are capabilities? Aren't these capabilities?

"With Saint Emperor Cao's abilities, he would definitely have thought of this when he allowed you to come out this time. However, Senior still didn't stop you." Miao Xiao Miao said. "Because Senior Cao knew that you would have to come out sooner or later! You would be thrown into chaos no matter what, so he might as well let you experience it a little earlier. Without experiencing the winds and rain, how would one witness a rainbow? Preparing earlier is better than being caught by surprise. That was why he only chose to follow secretly behind you, not appearing to help you out..."

"Well, he's clearly returned already this time, but there are still so many unsettled matters. What should I do? So many people dislike me; isn't my little life now in danger?" Jun Mo Xie said in a distraught manner.

"Young Master must be joking. The second most unprovokable person in the Misty Illusory Manor has already been ruthlessly slapped away by you. What else is there for Saint Emperor Cao to be worried about? Besides, the most those people can do is to use very roundabout matters to humiliate you and prove their superiority to you. They would never dare to kill you! Saint Emperor Cao could naturally leave with a peace of mind..." Miao Xiao Miao explained, while her face grew redder and redder.

The reason Cao Guo Feng had returned was clearly because he was much less worried about this disciple of his. But the main reason was that Jun Mo Xie was with Miao Xiao Miao now! Miao Xiao Miao would certainly not let Jun Mo Xie leave alone while facing so much danger!

Because she was also bearing the responsibility of her father and grandfather sending her to probe this peerless super genius. And this so-called probe was not just about his talent. It included his personality, temperament, how he carried himself, how he treated his friends and enemies... everything about his person. Young genius Mo's talent had already been determined long ago, and there was no longer any need to continue investigating.

And this "probe" was also the true reason Miao Xiao Miao had invited him over this time.

There were naturally advantages and disadvantages for the two of them being together. The disadvantage was naturally that the people who disliked him would find him even more irksome. The schemes they were planning would undoubtedly become much more poisonous. Furthermore, he would probably attract an even greater number of haters. Of course, the advantage was not small as well... sticking with Miao Xiao Miao was undoubtedly equal to obtaining an extra protective charm!

And with Miao Xiao Miao around, it didn't matter how much those people hated this Free and Natural Physique genius or what kind of schemes they hatched. All of it could only be used in the dark; if they tried to bully him too brazenly... all of them would be in huge trouble if Miao Xiao Miao went back and complained!

Furthermore, judging by the way Jun Mo Xie dealt with Gu Fei Yu... Saint Emperor Cao was quite sure that not many people in the Misty Illusory Manor could make things difficult for that little Young Master. Thus, he directly relaxed and went back to take a nap...

"If you really want to establish your position in the Misty Illusory Manor, you have to pass through this trial before you! Furthermore, you need to rely on your own strength to pass through it. If you rely on outside strength to seize a position, those people will never give up!" Miao Xiao Miao said seriously.

"Eh? With my own strength? No way! That... I don't even know what kind of grand feasts those proud Young Masters have prepared for a countryside bumpkin like me..." Jun Mo Xie said with some interest.

Miao Xiao Miao smiled mysteriously and looked at him. "I have no intentions of revealing that stuff to Young Master Mo. After all, obtaining free information from me is also a form of outside help! In any case, you'll find out for yourself sooner or later. However, I can give you warning in advance. The place we're going to next can be said to be a gathering of distinguished aristocrats. Although Gu Fei Yu is the second most unprovokable person in the Misty Illusory Manor, it's merely an overly inflated opinion of the crowd. Furthermore, he's a loner and his character is also clearly weak. Defeating him is not any difficult matter. But what you're about to face is a capable group of people with similarly great foundations! Among them, there are all kinds of talents well versed in all manners of literary arts, music, martial arts, and other things!"

"If you want to defeat them all with the strength of a single person, it's virtually impossible, unless there are truly miracles in this world!" A strange look of concern flashed in Miao Xiao Miao's eyes.

Before this, her thoughts hadn't been much different from those people, and she was also waiting to see this Free and Natural Physique get humiliated. But now, she was actually very anxious to see Jun Mo Xie defeat them, completing this impossible miracle!

Somehow, she no longer wanted to see him being embarrassed or humiliated! Just thinking about that scene caused her to feel uncomfortable in her heart...

Such a switch in attitude could be said to be extremely sudden and unexpected, to a point where even she felt shocked. She even felt somewhat scared that such a thought had appeared in her heart, and she couldn't understand what was going on. How did her normally calm self become like this, to actually talk and laugh so freely with an unfamiliar guy...

"So troublesome? But why must I defeat them? What's the point of defeating them?" Jun Mo Xie said with some disdain. "Am I that free and bored? Why should I go over to play with trash for nothing? Not mentioning that it's time and effort consuming, I even have to offend a bunch of people. And there aren't even any benefits to obtain! Why should I go and do something so stupid? Does everyone take me for a retard?"

Miao Xiao Miao was stumped!

In her knowledge, as long as someone raised a challenge, whether it be for the pride as a Xuan cultivator or just to vent their indignance, there was usually no way for retreat, and they had to accept the challenge!

But she'd never thought that this Free and Natural Physique guy would actually reject so cleanly!

A single word of rejection had thoroughly killed off this path!

That's right, ah, all of you came prepared and in great strength clearly for the purpose of bullying me. Can it be that I can't hide away if I can't face you? The strength of both sides are unfair, but you expect others to face you head on. Bullying the few with the strength of many, coming with malicious intent, and still not allowing others to dodge? If I really accepted your challenge, I would really be an idiot!

Those words are not wrong...

Miao Xiao Miao instantly opened her eyes wide. By simply dodging this battle, Mo Jun Ye would not only not have his reputation spoilt, it was in fact the wisest decision!

If that large group of arrogant Young Masters were all stood up by this Young Master Mo... that would truly be a sight to see...
