Mo Baiye cautiously flew towards the Mo Residence and soon ca to a halt, looking at the familiar courtyard where he had lived for dozens of years, a strong sense of happiness suddenly surged in his heart.
In the past, when he was poor, he only lived in that small courtyard for cultivating in seclusion. After making so money, he bought all the surrounding houses and, over ti, expanded to its current size.
It could be said that this mansion contained all his efforts and his youth.
"Zhang Xuan, I hope you are still there. I have thought of a good excuse that can better prove my identity. Once we et, I will surely expose your true face…”
His fists clenched, Mo Baiye grew increasingly angry as he thought about it.
No matter how he had explained before, that fool Mo Yi had believed the other person. This ti, he rembered an old incident which would definitely confirm his identity and leave the other party speechless.
...
Then, he could completely unite everyone to execute him.
"Right, there’s also that unfilial disciple, Min Jiangtao… I must kill him…”
With a flash in his eyes, he strode towards the mansion, but before he could get near, he was blocked by two guards.
"How dare you!”
Mo Baiye, with his hands behind his back, raised his eyebrows: “Don’t you even recognize anymore?”
The two guards shook their heads: “We do not!”
It was then that Mo Baiye realized the two were unfamiliar, probably new guards; he suppressed his anger: “…I am Mo Baiye, and I am the owner of this residence!”
"Mo Baiye? Oh, it’s you!”
The guard on the left waved dismissively with a look of contempt: “This place indeed used to be your residence, but it has now been bought by our Wanxiang Sect’s leader Qian Yuhuan, and has beco Qian Mansion! There’s a signboard above; look carefully before you barge in next ti…”
Others might fear him for being the Vice Palace Master Mo of the Heaven Mandate Hall and the leader of the Mo Blade Sect, but they of the Wanxiang Sect didn’t care, and thus did not speak with any courtesy.
"Bought? Qian Mansion?”
Mo Baiye was dumbfounded, and quickly looked up to indeed find that the signboard on the main entrance had been changed. A surge of anger burst forth from his dantian: “Who decided to sell it?”
"How would I know? Anyway, our old master bought it from the steward Mo Yi; said it was according to your wishes…”
The guard said.
"My wishes…”
His body swayed, Mo Baiye realized sothing, feeling like coughing up blood.
Zhang Xuan you damn bastard!
Not only did you impersonate , but you also sold my mansion…
"My wife, concubines, they all live there; did they consent to the sale of the residence?” He clenched his teeth, unable to refrain from asking.
"How would I know about that? From what I heard, your wives and concubines were dispersed on the spot; they never wanted to marry you in the first place. The idea of leaving made them all laugh in their dreams; they disappeared without a trace yesterday…” Ȑ₳ɴȱ𝔟Е𝐬
The guard relayed the news he had heard.
Feeling darkness before his eyes, Mo Baiye wanted to slap this unpleasant talking bastard to death, but fearing to offend the Wanxiang Sect, he could only look through the main gate, seeing many subordinates coming and going, none of whom he recognized!
The other party had not only sold his Mo Residence, but he had also dismissed and replaced all the subordinates…
"A mansion is just a mansion; as long as I kill him, everything that I’ve lost can be regained!”
Knowing that arguing with such a subordinate would only bring disgrace, Mo Baiye said no more and turned towards the Heaven Mandate Hall’s temporary office.
Let it be for now. Zhilan Valley is about to open soon. I will first et up with the nurous Fate Masters and enter this 21st-ranked Heaven Mandate Domain!
Once there, I can use Liu Mingyue as bait to lure that Zhang Xuan into an ambush and find a way to kill him!
The thought that the other party would die by his own hand montarily eased the humiliation of selling his house. He hurried all the way to Heaven Mandate Hall and pushed the door open. As soon as he entered, he was surrounded by over a dozen Fate Masters, all brimming with excitent.
"Vice Palace Master Mo, you’ve finally arrived. Are you here to repay the money and the interest?”
"You really are a man of your word, saying you would return it at this ti and here you are now…”
Seeing the excitent on everyone’s faces, Mo Baiye showed a puzzled expression, “Gentlen, what’s going on? Repay what money?”
"What, Vice Palace Master Mo, are you planning on reneging on your debts now?”
"With Master Shi here as a righteous witness, would he dare to renege? What a joke!”
Seeing his attitude, the excited expression on everyone’s faces sank.
"I haven’t figured out what’s going on yet… Can soone explain in detail to ?” Seeing the hostile looks from everyone, Mo Baiye didn’t dare to put on airs and quickly asked.
Just then, Master Shi Yunjing walked over, “A day ago, you said you urgently needed money, borrowed 8000 Destiny Plates from everyone, and pledged an oath that you would repay double before the opening of Zhilan Valley. You were so adamant back then, and I only vouched for you because of it. Are you going to deny it now?”
“8000… Destiny Plates? ?”
Mo Baiye’s body swayed, and he almost vomited blood.
Losing a suite in the residence wasn’t a big deal; a few hundred million Origin Currency could buy it back, but 8000 Destiny Plates… that’s close to a hundred billion Origin Currency. He hadn’t seen that much money even after so many years as a Vice Palace Master…
And he was to repay double too!
Was this ant to press him to death on the spot?
"Here is the debt note you signed, and the images recorded on the Record Crystal at the ti… If you won’t admit it, don’t bla this old man for being rude!”
Seeing him feign innocence with a constipated expression, Master Shi Yunjing’s face darkened, filled with displeasure.
When borrowing the money, he acted like a grandson, but now he knew nothing and pretended what?
Mo Baiye hurriedly opened a pile of debt notes, his eyelids twitching violently.
The handwriting on them was identical to his own. It looked like the imposter had not only mimicked his appearance but also replicated his handwriting exactly.
He activated the Record Crystal, and the scene within erged before his eyes, showing the entire process of “himself” borrowing money.
"It wasn’t , it was… it was Zhang Xuan…”
He couldn’t hold back any longer, his teeth clenched tightly.
"Shut up, do you think we can’t recognize whether it’s Zhang Xuan or not?” Master Shi Yunjing was truly angry.
He, a respectable Hall Master, had vouched for him and borrowed so much Origin Currency, only for this man to turn around and deny it… It was utterly shaless!
"Hall Master, let’s confiscate his residence, manor, and the Mo Blade Sect for now. If he really won’t repay, proceed with the auction!”
One of the Fate Masters shouted out.
The reason they dared to lend the money was first because Master Shi Yunjing guaranteed it, and second, this Mo Baiye was thought to be worth a lot; it seed unlike him to default on his debts. But now, it appeared he truly had no intention of acknowledging them.
"Alright…”
Master Shi Yunjing nodded, about to command a subordinate to do it, when a Fate Master with a pale face approached.
"Hall Master, there’s trouble. I just checked, and all of Mo Baiye’s assets were sold off at a low price just one day ago… He’s now penniless and has nothing left!”
"What, he sold off all his assets? Mo Baiye, I curse your grandmother, if you don’t repay the money today, I will kill you…”
An outburst of rage, and a host of Fate Masters closed in.
"All my properties have been sold?”
Mo Baiye’s face turned pale, and he couldn’t help but roar as well, “Zhang Xuan, I curse your grandmother!”
