The two old men had ugly looks on their faces, but neither of them said a thing.
The looks in their eyes made it clear that they had their guards raised just in case anything happened.
If anyone were to do anything to them, they would be ready for it.
The problem was...nothing happened.
So all they could do was stand there with their guards up while they were still injured. They didn't even have time to stabilize their injuries since they were on guard against anything that would come their way.
After a long time, the first old man said, "What? Are you too scared now?"
The second old man followed up by saying, "Right! You ambush us and then run?"
"Who said that I'm scared of you?"
The two old men tried to find the source of this voice, but once again they couldn't find it.
The voice continued by saying, "You should know your limits. Trying to do something like this under everyone's noses, do you think that no one would stop you?"
The two old men trembled when they heard this since they could hear the chill that was in this voice as it spoke.
It was clear that there was anger that was behind this voice, but they couldn't understand why. After all, they didn't even know who the other side was.
The voice then said, "Trying to hurt the kids of the future, you really are scum."
The faces of the two old men twisted once more when they heard this.
Then all of a sudden, there were more blood red palms that appeared around them as the voice said, "Well, it seems like you aren't repenting at all. I guess I'll just have to punish you a bit more."
The two old men worked together and they used much more power than before.
The first old man took out a sword and slashed at the blood red palms.
The second old man released flames all around him that burned the blood red palms away.
But even though the two of them were working together and were using their full power to destroy these blood red palms that appeared around them, they found that they were completely outmatched.
It wasn't even the fact that they were injured that made them be outmatched.
Even if they were at full power, they would still be outmatched by these blood red palms.
That was the difference in power between the two sides.
The two old men couldn't help looking at each other and they could see that same look of confusion in each other's eyes.
"Just who is this person that can overwhelm the two of us at the same time?"
While they were still defending, the voice spoke in a casual tone.
"Outer Sect Elder Ye Jian of the Mount Hua Sword Sect and Outer Sect Elder Huo Wang of the Kunlun Sect, it seems that the two esteemed elders really don't live up to their reputations."
The two old men were focused on fighting back the blood red palms that were around them, but it was clear by the twitches that came from their faces that they were also listening to all the things that this voice was saying.
Right now, they were barely in the Nascent Soul Realm because of this.
It was only at this moment that the voice said, "Now, let's have a talk."
As soon as the voice fell, there was a swirl of blood red energy that appeared in front of them.
When the swirl of blood energy disappeared, there were two figures that suddenly appeared in the middle of it.
As soon as they saw this figure, both the old men said, "Why is it you?"
The one that they were referring to was an old man who was standing there with a young man beside him.
The younger people watching didn't recognize the old man, but they recognized the young man.
As soon as he appeared, Xiao Ming quickly ran forward to check on this young man.
That was because this young man was...
Huang Xie who they all thought had just died.
Huang Xie had an awkward look on his face since he knew that he had just tricked everyone by appearing like this, but there was nothing that he could do since the one who had saved him wouldn't allow him to show himself.
All he could do was watch everything happen from the side of the old man.
The old man just looked at Xiao Ming coming over and hitting Huang Xie on the head with a smile before saying, "Young miss, don't blame him too much. I was the one that stopped him from revealing himself since we still had to hide during that time."
Xiao Ming was surprised to hear this, so she just gave a slow nod in a daze.
The old man gave a nod back to Xiao Ming before turning his eyes to the two old men.
But before that, his eyes fell onto Mo Sha and he asked, "Are you alright?"
Mo Sha gave a nod before saying, "Yes, grandfather."
The old man who Mo Sha had called 'grandfather' gave a nod before turning to face the two old men.
Everyone looked at Mo Sha with a shocked look, but he just had a calm look on his face as if he wasn't bothered by this.
Mo Sha's grandfather walked in front of the two old men and said, "Men of your caliber are acting like thugs, it really is disappointing."
The first old man said, "Mo Xue, you're one to talk."
The second old man nodded in agreement as he said, "Do you really think that your Demon Palm Sect will be able to escape from this?"
Mo Xue, Mo Sha's grandfather, didn't seem worried at all about the threats that they made.
Instead, he just looked at them with a smile on his face as he said, "I don't think that I'm the one who's in danger right now. If you think about it, I think you're in more danger than I am."
The two of them trembled when they heard this since they couldn't deny that this was the truth.
Mo Xue made it even more clear by saying, "If people were to find out about your weakened state..."
