Chapter 141: Wei Zhongxian Falls into the Pit

~8 min read 1,508 words

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Wei Zhongxian felt a start in his heart.

He looked at Wang Jianqiang.

Wang Jianqiang was so angry at this moment that his face had turned red, and a cold luster shone in his eyes, as if it were not Wei Zhongxian who had been bullied, but himself.

Seeing this, a warm current flowed through Wei Zhongxian's heart.

So this Wang Jianqiang actually cared about him so much!

Truly righteous!

While moved, Wei Zhongxian patted Wang Jianqiang on the shoulder, "I appreciate the Daoist Friend's good intentions, but as Alchemists, we are not skilled in combat and can only hire others; however, no one is willing to provoke a heaven-gifted talent of that level."

"Let's just forget it."

Hearing Wei Zhongxian's words, Wang Jianqiang shook his head, "Daoist Friend Wei, that is where you are wrong. She, Tu Youyou, may be ranked second on the Shenfeng Ranking and is indeed very strong, but she is not someone no one dares to provoke."

"A few days ago, I happened to make the acquaintance of a friend who is capable of provoking her."

Wei Zhongxian was stunned, and as if thinking of something, he looked at Wang Jianqiang with some uncertainty.

Just as Wei Zhongxian's mind was racing with thoughts, Wang Jianqiang's voice continued, "That person is named Mo Wuming."

Upon hearing this name, Wei Zhongxian's expression stirred.

It really was him!

When Wang Jianqiang said there was someone who could provoke Tu Youyou, he had guessed that the friend Wang Jianqiang spoke of might be Mo Wuming.

This Mo Wuming was a rather legendary figure in Shenfeng City.

Since entering the city, he had only challenged the Heaven-Reaching Tower once and never went again.

Yet his results remained high on the Shenfeng Ranking, far surpassing everyone else, and to this day, no one has been able to surpass them.

He had not expected Wang Jianqiang to be acquainted with Mo Wuming.

Although Tu Youyou was strong, if Mo Wuming were willing to step in, it was truly possible to help him take revenge.

Thinking of this, he felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

"I never expected Daoist Friend Wang to be acquainted with Mo Wuming. In that case, Wei's revenge might truly be avenged."

Following this, a flash of hesitation crossed his face, "It is just that I do not know if Mo Wuming would agree to help."

"After all, Tu Youyou is no ordinary person; even for Mo Wuming, I fear he would choose to coexist peacefully if he could avoid offending her."

Hearing Wei Zhongxian's words, Wang Jianqiang smiled confidently, "Daoist Friend Wei, rest assured. I once did Mo Wuming a great favor; even if only to repay this debt of gratitude, he will certainly agree."

Wei Zhongxian was delighted upon hearing this, "Then I will trouble Daoist Friend Wang."

Wang Jianqiang waved his hand, "Daoist Friend Wei is too polite. We Disciples of the Junzi Sect put righteousness above all else. Since I have made you a friend, I will naturally help you with all my might."

"What a Junzi Sect, what a 'righteousness above all else', Wei admires you." Wei Zhongxian revealed a look of admiration.

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "When does Daoist Friend Wei intend to return to the North City District to take revenge on Tu Youyou?"

"Wei is not in a hurry. Daoist Friend Wang should go contact Mo Wuming first, and we shall abide by his decision."

Hearing Wei Zhongxian's words, Wang Jianqiang nodded as if in deep thought, "Very well. I will go to the Shenfeng Pavilion first, and once I return, I will immediately go find Mo Wuming."

……

After parting ways with Wei Zhongxian, a strange look flashed across Wang Jianqiang's face.

He first went to the Shenfeng Pavilion, and after completing a mission and receiving the Contribution Point reward, he picked another mission and then left the Shenfeng Pavilion.

Returning to the front of his residence, Wang Jianqiang looked at Mo Wuming's residence.

Mo Wuming had just obtained the Ice Heart Soul Melting Pill and must be in the middle of healing his wounds.

After thinking it over, he decided to send him a message tomorrow.

……

The next day.

Wang Jianqiang sent a message to Mo Wuming via a Sound Transmission Talisman.

Not long after.

Mo Wuming arrived at Wang Jianqiang's residence.

He was tall and straight, with a head of long, black hair draped loosely.

Seeing Wang Jianqiang, a sincere smile appeared on his cold, stern face, "Greetings, Daoist Friend Wang."

Wang Jianqiang's gaze lingered on Mo Wuming for a moment, and he smiled, "Congratulations to Daoist Friend Mo on your full recovery."

"This is all thanks to Daoist Friend Wang's Pill." A look of gratitude flashed across Mo Wuming's face.

"Daoist Friend Mo is too polite. Since I, Wang, wish to befriend Daoist Friend Mo, I would naturally not be stingy with such worldly possessions." Wang Jianqiang waved his hand.

"Daoist Friend Wang is truly righteous; Mo admires you." Mo Wuming sighed with emotion, then revealed a serious expression, "I do not know what instructions you have for calling me here, Daoist Friend?"

Wang Jianqiang shook his head, "Instructions is too strong a word; I simply wanted to ask Daoist Friend Mo for a favor. I wonder if you have the time?"

"Daoist Friend Wang, you are being too distant. If there is anything, just say it; I, Mo, will certainly go through fire and water without hesitation!" Mo Wuming's expression was firm as he patted his chest to assure Wang Jianqiang.

Seeing this, Wang Jianqiang smiled, "Daoist Friend Mo, there is no need for that; it is just a small favor, nothing so serious."

Mo Wuming's expression remained solemn as he showed he was listening.

Wang Jianqiang shook his head helplessly, "Tomorrow I will take you to meet someone. This person is named Wei Zhongxian."

"Previously, he entered the North City District and was beaten soundly multiple times by a woman named Tu Youyou, so he wants to find someone to help him take revenge."

Mo Wuming's expression stirred, "Is that Wei Zhongxian a friend of yours, Daoist Friend Wang? Rest assured, your friend is my friend, Mo Wuming. I will help him take this revenge."

He knew the name Tu Youyou.

She had entered Shenfeng City while he was away from the city, and she was ranked second on the Shenfeng Ranking.

Her strength was very formidable.

Under normal circumstances, he would not want to provoke a heaven-gifted talent of that level, but at this moment, he made his decision without the slightest hesitation.

Wang Jianqiang shook his head upon hearing this, "No, Tu Youyou is actually my friend."

"Hmm?"

Mo Wuming was stunned for a moment.

Wang Jianqiang smiled and continued, "You only need to bring Wei Zhongxian to the North City District, then find an opportunity to leave; remember, do not show that you are intentionally abandoning him."

"Whether you pretend to encounter a powerful enemy or some other situation, you just need to appear as though you were forced by circumstances and had no choice but to abandon him to escape."

As soon as Wang Jianqiang finished speaking, Mo Wuming's heart stirred.

Abandoning Wei Zhongxian in the North City District?

This was clearly an intentional scheme to sabotage Wei Zhongxian.

Could this person have offended Daoist Friend Wang?

Thinking of this, Mo Wuming felt a strong sense of resentment toward the Wei Zhongxian he had never met.

To be able to make Daoist Friend Wang go to such lengths to take revenge on him.

This person must have offended Daoist Friend Wang severely; he is truly detestable to the extreme.

Thinking of this, he immediately nodded, "Rest assured, Daoist Friend Wang, Mo will certainly handle this matter beautifully for you."

The next day.

Wang Jianqiang and Mo Wuming arrived at the place previously agreed upon with Wei Zhongxian.

When the two arrived, Wei Zhongxian was already waiting there.

Seeing Wang Jianqiang and Mo Wuming arrive, he immediately greeted them enthusiastically.

"Daoist Friend Wang."

He smiled at Wang Jianqiang, then looked at Mo Wuming, the smile on his face becoming even more eager, "This must be Daoist Friend Mo, right?"

"I have long heard of your name."

"Greetings, Daoist Friend Wei." Mo Wuming nodded indifferently and went straight to the point, "Daoist Friend Wang has already told Mo about your matter, Daoist Friend Wei."

"Mo has accepted this task; let us head to the North City District now."

"Daoist Friend Mo is truly straightforward; since that is the case, Wei will not waste any more time."

After speaking, he bid farewell to Wang Jianqiang and flew off toward the North City District with Mo Wuming.

After the two left.

Wang Jianqiang took out a Communication Talisman, stirred his Spirit Sense, and sent out a message.

"They have already left; this time, he must not be allowed to escape back easily." A moment later.

The Communication Talisman flashed.

A cold, clear female voice came back.

"Understood."
