After the smack was a bone-chilling voice, “Who does this dog belong
to?”
“Did you just hit me?!” He could finally speak again but the slap drew
fresh blood at the corner of his mouth again. He was so angry that he could
skin and swallow the two in front of him alive!
Right then, Mo Xuanzun stopped smiling and his aura changed three
hundred sixty degrees. The sense of being superior than the entire world exuded
from him naturally. Between his eyes were superiority and icy arrogance. At
this very moment, everybody presence felt a pressure coming at them, including
Old Man Ying.
“Hehe, guye1. This little scoundrel was the eldest son of the
Gu’s from city of Yin. He claimed that he was our Miss’s fiance and came to
call off the betrothal!” smiled Old Man Ying as he went and stood next to Mo
Xuanzun.
Hearing that, Cheng Xiao Xiao’s fair cheek blushed. Staring at him with
her almond eyes, she said, “Old Man Ying, do you want me to mute you?”
Contrarily to Cheng Xiao Xiao’s annoyance from embarrassment, Mo Xuanzun
was very fond of Old Man Ying. Or, one should say that he was ecstatic from it!
“You are quite good!” And this was the first time he looked direct at
the old man. Sizing him up quickly, he was a bit surprised. It was no small
feat to broke through to martial monarch.
But he didn’t comment on that. He turned to the man on his other side
and asked respectfully, “Father-in-law, is that true?”
“Ugh…” Cheng Biyuan wasn’t sure how to react to him addressing him as
his father-in-law left and right. He certainly did want to offend someone of
his prestigious background. He had no choice but to pretend that he didn’t hear
it. Nodding, he said, “Not exactly. They had rejected the betrothal years ago.
They were merely here to be rude and cause trouble today!
“Guye, they were going to use the backing of Pillar’s Clan of
Magical Swords to force Miss to get down on her knees and bow to young master
Gu!” continued Old Man Ying!
“Pillar’s Clan of Magical Swords?” The name-dropping did not phase Mo
Xuanzun. He scanned everybody who were there and asked coldly, “Which one of
them are from Pillar’s Clan of Magical Swords?”
Everybody turned and looked at the man in black together, giving him no
chance of hiding but exposed completed in front of Mo Xuanzun.
“Greetings to Young Master Mo from Zhao Danyu,” said the man in black
while kneeling on one knee and lowered his head solemnly and respectfully.
With Mo Xuanzun’s status, even Zhao Danyu’s young master must bow to him
respectfully. And he was but a little outside disciple2. Him being able to
stand in front of this young master was already a blessing; how would he dare
to be imprudent to him!
His behavior and mannerism shocked everyone there. The imperious and
arrogant man in black just knelt down in front of the genius mathematician of
Temple of Divine Plans. His behavior almost have everyone’s eyes popped out of
their sockets.
Mo Xuanzun merely glanced at him through squinted eyes and said slowly,
“I remember you. You are one of the
followers of Ning Xiao, the ninth out of the top ten disciples. Am I right?”
“Yes, I am an outside disciple and follower of shi xiong Ning!”
Zhao Danyu broke out in cold sweat. He dare not be slow in his responses!
The conversation between them enlightened everyone else. The master of
young master Gu was but an outside disciple of Clan of Magical Swords, the
follower of one of the top disciples. Anything one looked at it, he himself was
still a servant of someone else.
Granted, none of these cultivator would even want to step on the toes of
a servant of the Clan of Magical Swords.

Note:
1. How the bribe’s family refer to the “son-in-law”. Using pingyin for
lack of a good equivalent in English. Basically Old Man Ying was referring to
genius mathematician as Cheng Xiao Xiao’s husband.
2. An official disciple would move in and reside within the
organization. “Outside disciples” are the less official, second class ones.

Random words of the translator:
Gotta looove that Old Man Ying. He could totally take care of Gong
Zixuan, but noooooo, he want to get him in trouble with the genius
mathematician instead. LOL
