Chapter 918: Wanted Warrant Lifted
Someone in the crowd shouted, "He, he is the Wu Yan wanted by the city guards and the three major sects!"
After shouting, the man suddenly realized how stupid he had done. He was so scared that he covered his mouth and hid in the crowd. He disappeared in a flash.
His behavior was somewhat self-deceiving. If Wu Yan really wanted to make trouble for him, he would be dead no matter how far he hid.
However, it was his shout that finally made all the cultivators who came to Huayi Villa know Wu Yan's background.
"He is the 'murderer' Wu Yan who went on a killing spree in the forbidden area of Lingxu Medicine Valley more than 40 years ago?" Exclamations came from the crowd.
When the people who were originally watching the excitement heard Wu Yan's name, they were as if they had seen some terrible beast. They were so scared that they scattered and avoided Wu Yan from a distance.
The wanted order for Wu Yan was known to everyone in Lingxu. The rumors about him were also full of legends and all kinds of things. But without exception, in every different version of the legend, any nickname related to the name Wu Yan was related to words such as "killing", "madness", "devil", etc.
When you think of Wu Yan slaughtering all the hundreds of monks who participated in the expedition in the forbidden area of Lingxu Medicine Valley by himself, who would dare to approach him?
Wu Yan did not show any surprise on his face when his identity was recognized. To be more precise, his face was still cold and expressionless at this time, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Everyone couldn't help but stand far away, wondering strangely, why did Wu Yan suddenly appear here after disappearing for more than 40 years? Isn't he afraid of being attacked by the crowd here?
You know, the wanted order for Wu Yan has not been removed yet, and the high reward in the wanted order is so high that even the monks in the Refining Void Stage are tempted. Is he really not afraid of death?
When everyone thought about this, they couldn't help but whisper and discuss. More people communicated with each other through their spiritual thoughts, and their eyes looking at Wu Yan had already revealed a faint greedy light, obviously they were planning to attack Wu Yan.
In fact, Wu Yan had previously planned to keep a low profile, quietly kill the Bai family and leave. However, after Mo Feng unexpectedly came to Huayi Villa, more and more cultivators who got the news gathered here, Wu Yan changed his mind.
He suddenly thought that now might be the most appropriate time to make his identity public.
He didn't want to appear in Lingxu Land under other identities. Hiding and concealing his identity were never what he wanted. Only by making a big deal and using a bloody and shocking way can the people of the entire Lingxu Land realize that if they want to attack him, Wu Yan, they are looking for death, and there is no other way.
Only in this way can he play the best deterrent role after announcing his identity. If it doesn't work, then announce that he is the disciple of Master Dugu, so that naturally no one will dare to easily attack him again.
After learning about Wu Yan's true identity, the cultivators in the Void Refining Stage in the hall could no longer sit still. They rushed out of the hall and stood dozens of feet away from Wu Yan. Without exception, they all looked at Wu Yan with different eyes.
Most of them had a trace of greed in their eyes.
Whether it was the treasures Wu Yan had taken out from the Lingxu Land or the high reward for the wanted order, it was enough for these old guys to take action.
However, no one took action first at this time. Everyone was a little worried now, of course not about Wu Yan, but about other cultivators in the Void Refining Stage.
The head of the Huayi Sect also looked at Wu Yan with a bad face. However, he could not ignore Mo Feng standing next to him at this moment. Mo Feng did not speak, and even if he really wanted to capture Wu Yan, he had to ask Mo Feng's opinion first.
The wanted order was issued by the city guards. Mo Feng now represents the entire Lingxu City and the city guards.
However, when Mo Feng looked at Wu Yan, he not only had no murderous intent, but also had a strange admiration. This expression was intriguing in the eyes of other cultivators.
"Mr. Mo, this person turned out to be the notorious "murderer" Wu Yan. How do you think he should be dealt with?" Xiong Kaishan asked Mo Feng carefully.
Mo Feng smiled and was about to speak, but in this extremely tense atmosphere, he suddenly heard a woman's crisp exclamation from the crowd, and then saw a strange monk wearing a wide Taoist robe squeezed out of the crowd and came to Wu Yan. He looked up and down at Wu Yan curiously, sighed, and said with some disapproval: "Are you the 'murderer' Wu Yan? You don't look so good?"
This monk was not tall, wearing a big hat on her head, covering most of her face, and wearing a wide Taoist robe, so that people could not see her true appearance, and she looked quite funny.
However, her voice was crisp and pleasant, and it was obvious that she was not a man, but a female cultivator dressed as a man. But her outfit was really a bit out of place.
Wu Yan had no interest in getting entangled with this strange female cultivator who suddenly appeared in front of him. After hearing this, he glanced at her coldly and said: "Wu has something to deal with and has no time to get entangled with you. If you don't want to die, get out of the way!"
"Oh, what a loud tone! Since my aunt debuted, no one has ever dared to talk to my aunt like this. Hello..."
The female cultivator was so indignant at Wu Yan's cold reception that she immediately pointed at Wu Yan's nose and yelled. However, before she could finish what she said, and before Wu Yan could take action, Mo Feng suddenly and strangely appeared behind the female cultivator, reached out and grabbed her arm, and pulled her to him with a gentle pull. behind.
"I'm sorry, my roommate is young and ignorant. She bumped into a fellow Taoist. Please don't blame her."
What no one expected was that after Mo Feng took action to pull away the female cultivator who was causing trouble, not only did he not take action against Wu Yan, but he apologized to Wu Yan in an unusually polite manner.
Wu Yan nodded and said calmly: "It doesn't matter. But please take care of her and don't let her come out to disturb Wu again, otherwise Wu will not be polite to her no matter what her identity is."
Mo Feng smiled bitterly and nodded, then pulled the female cultivator behind him, avoided the battle group, and returned to the original position.
"Brother Mo, why are you holding me back?" Mo Feng had taken off the hat on the female cultivator's head at this time, revealing the face of a beautiful and pretty girl. She pouted her lips angrily and said dissatisfied Mo Feng got angry.
"What did I tell you a few days ago? Have you forgotten?" Mo Feng's face darkened, and he scolded the girl in a rare and serious and angry voice.
The girl's mouth tightened, and she suddenly showed an expression of grievance and confusion.
"You are not a child anymore. Can you cause less trouble for Master and me? If you dare to mess around again, don't blame me for asking the master's family to imprison you for a hundred years!" Seeing the girl looking like she was about to cry, her eyes were dark. But his eyes were wandering around, paying no attention to other things, Mo Feng suddenly said angrily.
"I know! Really, it's not fun at all!" This was the first time the girl saw Mo Feng showing such a terrifying and serious expression. She immediately didn't dare to mess around. She could only turn her eyes to Wu Yan and looked at him curiously.
This scene fell into the eyes of everyone, and many people were immediately shocked, and at the same time they became even more undecided.
"Master Mo, this person is Wu Yan, the 'murderer' wanted by the city guards. I wonder how Master Mo thinks it should be dealt with?" Xiong Kaishan, the leader of the Huayi Sect, asked Mo Feng carefully again.
At this time, his face was a little confused. After all, Wu Yan was causing trouble at his mountain gate and killing someone in front of him on his special day. Such behavior was tantamount to a slap in the face. This tone was like Xiong Kaishan's How can I tolerate this despite my identity and status?
After Mo Feng pondered slightly, he suddenly smiled. He bowed his hands to everyone present, and then raised his voice and said: "It just so happens that there are many fellow Taoists from various sects here today. Mo Mou has something to announce to you. Regarding the previous arrest warrant for this fellow Taoist Wu, After verification by the city guards, it was purely a misunderstanding. Today, in front of comrades from all over the world, Mo Feng officially announced that the city guards have withdrawn the wanted order against fellow Taoist Wu Yan, and will punish the inconvenience and harm caused to fellow Taoist Wu Yan. Fellow Taoist Wu Yan made compensation.”
When Mo Feng said these words, the entire Huayi Villa was completely silent, without any sound. But after he finished speaking, everyone was silent for a moment, and suddenly a buzz of discussion broke out.
No one expected that things would take such an unexpected turn. Mo Feng actually came forward on behalf of the city guards and lifted the wanted order against Wu Yan in front of everyone, and also had to pay back the compensation for the damage caused to Wu Yan.
Not only were all the monks present surprised and startled, and they began to speculate as to what Mo Feng meant by his words, even Wu Yan was a little surprised and confused at this time. He never expected that Mo Feng would have such an attitude.
"Fellow Taoist Wu Yan, I wonder if you have any opinions on how you handled Mo?" Mo Feng said with a distant salute to Wu Yan again.
Wu Yan's face moved slightly, and he returned his hand and said, "Wu was indeed very angry when he was misunderstood by the city guard as being wanted. However, now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, Mr. Mo is clearing Wu's wrongdoing in front of everyone in the world. Mr. Wu is deeply grateful. As for the compensation, forget it.”
"How can this be calculated? Compensation must be given. But unfortunately, Mo Feng did not bring many things with him when he came out this time, so he could not cash in the compensation to Fellow Daoist Wu on the spot. If Fellow Daoist Wu is free, he might as well go to the inner city of Lingxu City , Mo Feng must sweep up the couch to greet me and offer me this compensation," Mo Feng sincerely invited.
However, when his words fell on everyone's ears, they once again had other ideas. Could it be that Mo Feng did not have the confidence to keep Wu Yan today, so he made this decision to retreat instead of advancing?
However, Mo Feng doesn't look like the kind of person who would play such a scheming trick? And Wu Yan seemed to be only at the Divine Transformation stage, so how could he make Mo Feng so afraid?
Although everyone was puzzled, no one dared to question Mo Feng's decision.
However, Xiong Kaishan is the head of the Huayi Sect after all. If he cannot properly handle Wu Yan's troubles in front of so many fellow monks, I am afraid that this matter will be spread out, and in the future, he will be the leader in the world of immortal cultivation. There is no face to speak of.
