Chapter 1603 - 1601: Turning Hostile
Wang Dadong felt something was odd. Logically, since Liu Yun Dou Sheng and Mu Jin were friends, even if Mu Jin’s words didn’t hold much sway, it shouldn’t warrant such an attitude towards him, right?
But since the other party said the Dou Sheng was resting, Wang Dadong naturally didn’t want to disturb too much, so he decided to participate in other Dou Sheng’s assessments first.
He cupped his hands and said, "Alright, I’ll come again tomorrow."
"Don’t come tomorrow either; the Dou Sheng will be resting again," the woman said irritably.
"Then I’ll come the day after tomorrow."
"The day after tomorrow, too. Every day it’s rest, you don’t need to come anymore," the woman sneered.
Hearing the woman’s words, Wang Dadong’s face finally darkened. It seemed Liu Yun Dou Sheng intended to make things difficult for him on purpose.
"Are you sure this is the intention of Liu Yun Dou Sheng?" Wang Dadong squinted and asked.
"Hey, are you a little brat who can’t understand words? I said you don’t need to come, so you don’t need to come!" The woman started cursing directly at Wang Dadong’s continuous talking.
Slap!
The woman’s words finally infuriated Wang Dadong. Not to mention just a small maid of Liu Yun Hall, even the Hall Master of Liu Yun Hall wouldn’t dare call him a brat. Without any hesitation, Wang Dadong directly flashed over and slapped the woman’s face.
The woman’s veil was knocked off, and a few teeth fell out, revealing an old face.
"You, how dare you hit me!" The woman looked at Wang Dadong in disbelief, pointing and yelling.
"Don’t think just because you’re ugly I won’t dare hit you!" Wang Dadong said coldly.
"I... I’ll fight with you!" Being slapped was one thing, but then being told not to think just because you’re ugly I won’t dare hit you was too much. Insulted like this, the woman went mad and lunged at Wang Dadong like a rabid dog.
Wang Dadong said nothing and kicked her away.
The woman, kicked away, immediately wanted to lunge again. Wang Dadong lifted his leg, ready to kick this unruly servant once more.
"Stop!" A cold voice came from the cave.
Soon, a stunning woman with a frosty face slowly walked out from the cave.
It was none other than Liu Yun Dou Sheng, Mu Yun Jin.
"Elder, you must stand up for me," cried the maid upon seeing Mu Yun Jin.
"Wang Dadong, you’ve got quite the nerve to hit someone from my Liu Yun Hall!" Mu Yun Jin’s beautiful eyes were full of murderous intent as she glared at Wang Dadong, loudly questioning him.
"Hmph, your dog wasn’t disciplined well, so I disciplined it for you," Wang Dadong snorted.
He treated them with courtesy, but they were aggressive and insulting; naturally, he couldn’t welcome them with a smiling face.
"My dog, when was it your turn to discipline?" Mu Yun Jin’s eyes widened, and she shouted.
"Liu Yun Dou Sheng, I came here to participate in the Dou Sheng assessment, and it was one thing not to have anyone receiving me, but to insult me as well, wasn’t I right to hit her?" Wang Dadong said indifferently.
Mu Yun Jin seemed aware of being at fault but appeared extremely protective, her face turning ugly as she said, "Since that’s the case, I apologize on behalf of my servant, but your Dou Sheng assessment ends here!"
Wang Dadong’s face darkened. Mu Jin, Mu Ming, and Mu You Ying, these three Dou Shengs didn’t seem as hard to deal with as the Elders of the Battle God Temple, but Mu Yun Jin was simply unreasonable and blindly protective.
She was actually going to end his Dou Sheng assessment because of this.
"Liu Yun Dou Sheng, don’t you think you’re going a bit too far?" Wang Dadong narrowed his eyes and said.
"Too far? Since I’m the master of Liu Yun Hall, whether you proceed with the Dou Sheng assessment is my decision!" Mu Yun Jin continued unreasonably.
Wang Dadong’s gaze fell on Mu Yun Jin’s waist, where a jade card full of cloud patterns was hanging, with the words "Liu Yun" inscribed in the middle.
The Flowing Cloud Order!
Wang Dadong had already obtained four tokens and could not abandon them now. Since the other party wouldn’t let him take the assessment, he could only seize it by force.
Wang Dadong’s body shot directly towards Mu Yun Jin, his hand reaching for the Flowing Cloud Order.
"Audacious! You dare to snatch by force! Do you really think Battle God Temple is empty of people? Where are the other Elders?" Mu Yun Jin, seeing Wang Dadong coming aggressively, did not confront him head-on but instead retreated quickly while letting out an angry shout.
Just after Mu Yun Jin’s words, a few figures quickly appeared in front of Liu Yun Hall.
From Xing Chen Hall, Muchen Dou Sheng; from Tian Feng Hall, Mufeng Dou Sheng; from Annihilation Hall, Mu Yan Dou Sheng; Hall Master of Gui Ku Hall, Mu Mu; from You Ying Hall, Mu You Ying; from Jin Yu Hall, Mu Jin; and then the Hall Master of Liu Yun Hall, Mu Yun Jin—apart from the two Dou Shengs not at the Snow Mountain, all seven Dou Shengs had arrived.
Wang Dadong’s expression slightly changed; The Nine Great Dou Shengs, each Dou Sheng’s residence was far apart, yet as soon as Mu Yun Jin spoke, several Dou Shengs arrived in unison. This indicated they had actually been ambushed around Liu Yun Hall long ago.
And that woman who insulted him might have been deliberately instructed to do so.
It seemed the Battle God Temple was prepared to tear off the mask.
What puzzled him was that Mu Jin had clearly made a deal with him—he taught her the Ladder Cloud Leap, and she would give him the Jinyu Order—but now wasn’t she supposed to be studying the Ladder Cloud Leap? Why had she also come?
As it turned out, he was too naive. Since Mu Jin had already obtained the Ladder Cloud Leap method, his life or death naturally no longer mattered.
Wang Dadong’s eyes were cold, very cold.
But did they think seven Dou Shengs could suppress him? That was too naive.
All seven Dou Shengs were only at the Saint’s Peak, with the strongest combat power reaching only half-step into the Hidden World at best. As for him, he was at the Peak of Hidden World Intermediate Level; even if seven Dou Shengs joined hands, they might not be able to gain any advantage.
Moreover, he also had the copper box fragment. If worst comes to worst, he could fully unleash its power and go down with them.
Remember, when he encountered a holder of a copper box fragment who fully unleashed its power, even he and Yanyu combined couldn’t suppress the opponent. Yet he was naturally at the Hermit-level, so if he fully unleashed the copper box fragment’s power, how strong might he become?
Even he felt afraid!
Anyway, he already had four Holy Orders. Since all the Dou Shengs were here, why not seize them all in one go? It seemed all it took was to gather the nine Holy Orders, and even the Battle God could be dismissed. Would he still fear not getting a Ten Thousand Year Frost in exchange?
"What do you mean by this?" However, Wang Dadong still held onto the last thread of hope as he asked calmly.
"What do we mean? Hell’s Death Knell, you intruded on Battle God Temple territory, which is a punishable offense by death. Plotting to obtain the sacred Ten Thousand Year Frost of Battle God Temple, you’re doubly guilty!"
"Precisely, the Ten Thousand Year Frost is a necessity for advancing to the Battle God level and is immensely precious, even the Elders of our Nine Great Saint Halls aren’t qualified to use it. For a mere lowly Battle King to think of using the Ten Thousand Year Frost is utterly laughable."
