The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1396: Chapter 1396: I Refuse

The four people at the table all had their intense gazes fixed on Gao Feng.

Young Master Mo’s face suddenly turned sullen. Because when he had reached to grab Gao Feng’s hand just moments ago, Gao Feng had pulled away, making him feel humiliated, especially in front of his friends.

A fierce expression flickered in his eyes.

Suddenly, he extended his hand with force, trying to drag Gao Feng over. Gao Feng stumbled and almost fell into Young Master Mo’s embrace. She quickly steadied her body by supporting herself against the table.

A look of anger emerged on Gao Feng’s face.

What kind of temperament did Gao Feng have? She was straightforward, and even somewhat fiery. Deep within her heart, the flames of anger had long been ignited. If not for her daughter, Jing Dongxue, she wouldn’t have stayed there and would have left already.

But at this moment, Gao Feng couldn’t suppress her indignant feelings any longer, and she suddenly pushed Young Master Mo away forcefully.

”Young Master Mo, please mind your manners!” Gao Feng said with a frosty expression.

Young Master Mo was slightly taken aback, then his face turned completely dark, and his eyes narrowed slightly. A hint of a murderous aura flowed out from his half-squinted eyes.

He had already lost much patience with Gao Feng. He could see her but couldn’t have her, and it made him feel as though he were being taunted by a cat, feeling restless and intolerably itchy.

”Tsk tsk, such a bad temper!”

”Indeed, she’s different from the typical women, not even giving Brother Mo any face.”

”Exactly! If it were those usual women, they would have clung to Brother Mo long ago. Haha, no wonder Brother Mo is always thinking of Gao Feng. It seems Brother Mo hasn’t succeeded yet.”

The others spoke in a tone steeped in irony.

Listening to their words, Young Master Mo’s gaze grew colder and more piercing, like blades directed at Gao Feng.

He felt utterly humiliated.

At this moment, other guests in the tavern seemed to notice the change in atmosphere in the hall. Those seated nearby quietly moved to more distant places. Many among the guests had come because of Gao Feng, but they didn’t dare to vie with someone like Young Master Mo for a woman.

No one would risk shortening their own life. To offend Young Master Mo might mean that by tomorrow, their bodies would be discarded in the wilderness outside the city.

”Gao Feng!” Young Master Mo glared at Gao Feng.

”I have been very patient with you. However, now you’ve been wearing down that patience of mine.”

”Here in Tanshan City, there has never been a woman I, Mo Wei, wanted that I could not have. Gao Feng, do you know the consequences of refusing me?” Young Master Mo’s voice was slow, yet carried a harsh edge.

A pressure emanated from his body. Gao Feng found herself enveloped by it entirely. As a low-level Void God Realm martial artist, under such oppression, she could scarcely breathe. Sweat dripped from her forehead. Her delicate frame trembled slightly.

She was not afraid.

Yet, the disparity in realms between them was too vast, making it difficult for Gao Feng to withstand the tremendous pressure.

”Young Master Mo, I already have a Daoist couple. You are a person of great importance, why must you press me so hard?” Gao Feng gasped and spoke to Mo Wei.

”Have a Daoist couple? Haha, where is your Daoist couple?” Mo Wei’s eyes flashed, and he laughed coldly, glancing around the room.

His companions laughed along with him.

”Besides, even if what you say is true, I wouldn’t care at all. Even if your Daoist couple existed, even if he appeared here, I could easily deal with him, give him some resources to make him get lost. Surely, he would understand what’s best for him. And if he doesn’t know good from bad, then I have a million ways to teach him the necessity of understanding these principles.” Mo Wei said with a sinister smile.

Gao Feng’s face turned ashen.

”Gao Feng, together with me, your life will improve naturally. Why would you stay here and do such menial work to serve those useless ones? If you want to cultivate, I can provide you with endless resources. You should know, my capabilities can satisfy your every need. As long as you are with me, who would dare to make advances on you in Tanshan City?” Mo Wei’s gaze swept across the tavern hall.

Many martial artists, under his gaze, quickly lowered their heads, not daring to make eye contact.

”Now, I’m asking you if you are willing to become my, Mo Wei’s, woman.”

”As I mentioned, I no longer have any patience left for you. Gao Feng, you’d better think it over and give me an answer.” Mo Wei’s eyes returned to Gao Feng, his tone forceful.

Gao Feng, with effort, raised her head and looked at Mo Wei.

She opened her mouth and enunciated word by word, ”I am not willing!”

”Boom!”

Once Gao Feng uttered those four words, Mo Wei’s face twisted into a grotesque look. A terrifying wave of power swept from his body, enveloping the entire tavern hall.

Mo Wei slowly stood up, taking a step forward.

”Crack!” He swung his hand with a slap, striking Gao Feng on the face.

Gao Feng saw Mo Wei’s movement, and though his actions were not quick, she had no means to resist or evade. Her strength was simply too low. Though aware that Mo Wei intended to strike, she was powerless to counter in any way.

”You wretched woman, do you truly believe I, Mo Wei, eat vegetarian? I’ve been treating you kindly all these days! Saying you’re unwilling, I want to see how you’re unwilling! Do you think within this city I can’t do anything to you?”

”Today, I will take you away from here, and I want to see who dares to stop me!” Mo Wei shouted coldly, glaring at Gao Feng.

At this moment, Gao Feng unexpectedly laughed. However, the laughter carried a tinge of finality.

She was contemplating death!

Even if she were to die, she wouldn’t follow Mo Wei. But she couldn’t rest easy, she couldn’t let go of her daughter, Jing Dongxue. If she were gone, what would happen to her daughter?

Gao Feng’s despair was overwhelming.

In this place, there was not a single person who could help her.

Within the city, ordinary martial artists generally feared the authority of the City Lord Mansion and dared not act recklessly. However, the Mo Family was far too powerful. Even if Mo Wei did something against city regulations, would the City Lord Mansion really risk turning against a major power like the Mo Family for an ordinary martial artist?

...

Outside Tanshan City, Jing Yan in his long blue robe reduced his speed while flying.

”This is a city!”

”Feng’er and Dongxue should be inside this city! Finally... I’m going to see them.” Jing Yan gazed at the massive city ahead, his heart surged with excitement.

Thousands of years!

Since ascending from the low-class world to the God Realm, he hadn’t seen Feng’er and Dongxue again. Now, finally, he could.

Jing Yan descended to the ground and entered the city through the gate. The city was similar to those in the God Realm, equipped with a guardian array. Jing Yan did not wish to immediately clash with the city’s authorities upon his arrival, so he followed regulations, paying the entrance fee at the gate to enter the city.
