Chapter 451: When Have I Ever Been Shameless? (Part 2)

So, it was still manageable.

But who exactly was this mysterious Nanshan Elder?

This question lingered in their minds, causing unease—but so far, it was just a nagging worry.

However, the situation had now changed with the arrival of Xue Fuxiao, the top expert among the Guardians.

This was not someone they could easily deceive.

"What should we do?"

Taiyang Xingjun furrowed his brows and said, "Regarding this matter, we must provide an explanation to Senior Xue. However, it's not something that can be easily explained."

"Even if it's difficult to explain, we have no choice but to deny it."

Qin Guang Wang spoke up, "Let's follow the usual procedure. After all, according to past practices, at least on the surface, the Guardians have never participated in the Yin-Yang Realm."

"I wonder if we can get away with it."

Taiyin Xingjun's brows knitted together.

With great worry, she said, "If Senior Xue calms down and listens to our explanation, it might be fine. But when he arrived, he was clearly coming from a battle, and his white robe was so stained that its color was unrecognizable... At a time like this, it's not easy to brush it off."

"We'll just have to take it one step at a time."

Taiyang Xingjun said, "Fortunately, it's Xue Fuxiao who has come, and not Sun Xiaoyang. Although Xue Fuxiao's cultivation is high, he's still reasonable... It'll be easier to talk to him."

Everyone silently nodded in agreement.

Indeed, dealing with a gentleman was much easier than dealing with a scoundrel.

Just then, Xue Fuxiao's voice echoed from outside.

"Heavenly Palace, Underworld, who dares to come here?"

Upon hearing these words, everyone's faces changed!

The meaning and emotion behind the words 'dares to come here' were not good at all.

They dared not delay.

Immediately, they removed the barrier.

Taiyang Xingjun and the others all went out together, not leaving anyone behind.

"Taiyang of the Heavenly Palace, Taiyin... we pay our respects to Senior Xue."

"Qin Guang of the Underworld, Chu Jiang... we pay our respects to Senior Xue."

Xue Fuxiao let out a cold laugh and waved his hand.

A loud slap echoed as Taiyang Xingjun was struck, sending him flying ten zhang away. With a backhand slap, Qin Guang Wang was flung in the opposite direction, also landing ten zhang away.

Both of them collided with pillars and fell to the ground, blood already trickling from the corners of their mouths.

They had never expected Xue Fuxiao to be so irritable today, immediately resorting to violence.

Taiyin Xingjun was shocked and terrified, "Senior Xue, what does this mean? We have shown no disrespect."

Xue Fuxiao stood in the air with his hands behind his back, his gaze as cold as ice, "You dare to call yourselves the Sun and Kings in front of me?"

He spoke with a chilling tone, "First, put yourselves in your place before speaking to me!"

Taiyang Xingjun stood up, swallowing a mouthful of blood and forcing down his anger.

He respectfully said, "Senior Xue, please forgive us. I, Yang Daozhen, pay my respects to Senior Xue."

On the side, Qin Guang Wang had no choice but to honestly introduce himself.

"We humbly invite Senior Xue to the hall, where we, your juniors, will sincerely serve you tea. It would be our honor."

"Serve tea? No need!"

Xue Fuxiao replied indifferently, "Answer my three questions!"

"Please, Senior, enlighten us."

"First, regarding the Yin-Yang Realm opened in the White Cloud Continent of the Guardian Continent by the Heavenly Palace, Underworld, and the outside sect, whose idea was this? Who approved it?"

Xue Fuxiao's face was cold, carrying a chilling killing aura as he asked, "Second, it is said that you even stopped the Guardians from entering. Is this true? Who gave you the order? Whose idea was this? Who dared to do this?"

"Third, when you first arrived in the White Cloud Continent, you didn't even register. Who gave you this privilege? Who allowed you to be above the law?"

"Heavenly Palace, what crime have you committed?"

Xue Fuxiao's gaze was like cold electricity as he stared at Taiyang Xingjun and Qin Guang Wang.

He continued indifferently, "How will you explain these three questions?"

The two of them cried out in misery.

How could they respond to these three questions?

Originally, these matters weren't a big deal. After the fact, they could just laugh it off, and everything would be fine.

But now, Xue Fuxiao specifically brought them up and demanded an answer in person, changing the nature of the situation.

Because this was about Xue Fuxiao's face.

And Xue Fuxiao's face was the same as Dongfang Sansan's face, and Dongfang Sansan's face was the same as the Guardians' face.

Not providing an explanation would be absolutely unacceptable!

Taiyang Xingjun took a deep breath, bowed slightly, and spoke with a respectful tone, "Senior Xue, this time, the Heavenly Palace and the Underworld opened the Yin-Yang Realm in the White Cloud Continent without anyone's instruction. It's just that... for countless years, the opening of the Yin-Yang Realm has always been in the White Cloud Continent. So this time, we followed the usual practice..."

Xue Fuxiao coldly replied, "Not knowing is not a crime, but now you know. And this practice of opening the Yin-Yang Realm is not the Guardians' practice! Do you understand?"

"Junior understands!"

"So, which Guardian approved it?" Xue Fuxiao asked again.

Taiyang Xingjun remained silent for a moment before reluctantly answering, "No one approved it."

"Then what should we do about this?"

Xue Fuxiao indifferently asked, "For example, we Guardians also have a practice of visiting the Heavenly Palace's medicinal garden every year. What do you think of that?"

Taiyin Xingjun couldn't help but interject, "Senior Xue, this is not the same thing..."

Slap! Xue Fuxiao waved his hand, and Taiyin Xingjun's body tumbled in the air, her hair disheveled as she spat out a mouthful of blood mid-air.

Xue Fuxiao's voice was cold and sharp, "You dare to talk back?"

Everyone, including the elders of various sects in the other private rooms, fell silent, their voices as quiet as the chirping of cicadas in winter.

Xue Fuxiao had even struck a woman this time, a clear indication of her intense anger.

Taiyin Xingjun fell to the ground with a loud thud, feeling dizzy and disoriented.

Xue Fuxiao's slap was powerful and heavy, a true manifestation of her fury.

She quickly regained her composure and said in a low voice, "I don't know what explanation Snow Elder is looking for. Please let me know."

Since they were at a disadvantage, it was better to admit defeat.

She had come with the intention of admitting defeat, but before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted.

Moreover, her words were taken out of context.

Xue Fuxiao spoke indifferently, "From now on, the Heavenly Palace, Underworld, and the outside world's mountain sects must report in advance before entering the Guardian Continent for training. Only after obtaining permission can they venture out, regardless of the sect or mountain sect!"

Then she said, "For this explanation, the Heavenly Palace, Underworld, and Yin-Yang Realm will have to give up two-tenths of their harvest. Who agrees, and who disagrees?"

Taiyang Xingjun and the others remained silent, not daring to speak.

Although two-tenths was a significant amount, it was not unbearable...

"We will follow Snow Elder's instructions," Taiyang Xingjun agreed readily.

Xue Fuxiao hummed in response.

He was now strictly following Dongfang Sansan's instructions.

Throughout the battle, he had communicated with Dongfang Sansan numerous times.

Dongfang Sansan had specifically said, "We desperately need the resources from the Yin-Yang Realm. Since we've never had access to their resources before, this time, no matter what methods or means we use, you must bring some back!"

Therefore, Xue Fuxiao had no intention of negotiating.

He knew that he couldn't win an argument with others and might even fall into a trap.

The most direct approach was to rob them.

However, Xue Fuxiao had some scruples, so he came up with a few excuses.

Hearing Taiyang Xingjun's surrender, Xue Fuxiao glared at Qin Guang Wang, "You haven't spoken, does that mean the Underworld is unwilling?"

"We are willing!" Qin Guang Wang quickly expressed his agreement.

He had realized that Xue Fuxiao was already furious, having failed to imprison anyone.

So this time, Xue Fuxiao had come to rob them.

They had to give in, or he might really kill someone.

Xue Fuxiao spoke indifferently, "That's good. Then let's move on to the second issue... We also need an explanation for blocking the Guardians' entry. From now on, whenever there's a trial in the Yin-Yang Realm, our Guardians must participate as a separate team!"

Taiyang Xingjun's face turned sour as he said, "Snow Elder, it's not that I disagree, but my level is not high enough to make such decisions. When I return to the palace, I will definitely seek an audience with the Heavenly Emperor and provide you with a response as soon as possible. What do you think? After all, according to past customs, Guardians have never participated."

Xue Fuxiao nodded and said, "You make a valid point. We'll wait for your response after you seek an audience. However, this time, the Guardians' losses must be compensated, and we also want one-tenth of the Yin-Yang Realm's resources. What do you say?"

Taiyang Xingjun and Qin Guang Wang's faces turned ashen.

Why was another one-tenth added?

Was she planning to increase it bit by bit?

The two gritted their teeth and said, "...No problem!"

Xue Fuxiao asked, "So, is it three-tenths now?"

"Yes, Snow Elder," they replied.

"And for the third issue, one-tenth is also acceptable, right?" Xue Fuxiao asked sternly.

Taiyang Xingjun and Qin Guang Wang's eyes darkened simultaneously.

Sure enough, she had increased it again.

Their hearts sank into despair, losing four-tenths of their income?

The two looked miserable, their faces grim.

They didn't know if Xue Fuxiao had any other demands, and if she did, they might have to give everything away. They hesitated to respond.

Just then, a refined voice spoke up, "Snow Elder, don't go too far."

Following the voice, a man in white entered, hands clasped behind his back.

He floated in slowly, but it was as if a celestial being had descended upon the mortal world, his hands clasped behind his back, his presence overshadowing the dimly lit room.

Wearing a crown and a moon-white robe, his demeanor was graceful and his aura transcendent. In his thirties, his handsome face was like jade, exuding elegance and nobility.

He entered, and it seemed as if a natural halo surrounded his head, and he stood upon clouds.

Lofty and noble, he possessed an immortal aura.

As he entered the Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower, a faint smile played on his face, as if everything that had happened here was beneath his notice.

He walked directly in front of Xue Fuxiao, his face calm and serene, and said, "Snow Elder, why bully the younger generation?"

Upon seeing this person, Taiyang Xingjun and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.

For a moment, they felt the pressure brought by Xue Fuxiao dissipate in the presence of this man.

"We pay our respects to Purple Polestar Elder!" the Heavenly Palace members knelt in unison.

"We pay our respects to Ziwei Dadi!" the Underworld members bowed simultaneously.

The newcomer was none other than Ziwei Dadi, one of the Three Great Dominators of the Heavenly Palace.

He was one of the peak existences in the mortal world!

Xue Fuxiao turned her head slightly, her eyes cold as she looked at Ziwei Dadi, "Ziwei, are you here to oppose me?"

Ziwei Dadi spoke calmly, "Not at all. I merely saw Snow Elder bullying the younger generation, tarnishing your renowned reputation. I came specifically to discuss this matter with you, considering your eternal reputation."

Xue Fuxiao replied firmly, "I have nothing to discuss with you. Just say what you want, and I'll consider it."

Ziwei Dadi said with refinement, "In the mortal world, everything requires a discussion..."

Xue Fuxiao interrupted him, "Don't talk to me about discussions. I can't win an argument with you. Just tell me what you want to do, and I'll consider if it's possible."

If not, I'll make another request, and you'll say it again."

Xue Fuxiao remembered all of Ziwei Dadi's instructions: "You're stupid, so don't try to reason with people!"

If there's something to be done, just use your knife.

As for reasoning, just leave it to me!

So Xue Fuxiao followed through completely. He said to Ziwei Dadi, "If you insist on reasoning, then go reason with San San!"

Ziwei Dadi's dignified face instantly contorted.

Damn, am I supposed to reason with Dongfang Sansan?

How can I possibly out-reason him?

Something feels off today.

How did Xue Fuxiao suddenly get smart? He actually started refusing to reason with me.

Looks like Dongfang Sansan must have given him instructions beforehand.

Ziwei Dadi suddenly felt a headache coming on.

It must be said, a Xue Fuxiao who reasons is not scary; but a Xue Fuxiao who doesn't reason is equivalent to Sun Xiaoyang.

Not easy to deal with!

Ziwei Dadi said, "Since that's the case, let's be direct. Three and a half parts, to you, Guardian. What do you think, Xue brother?"

Ziwei Dadi was very straightforward.

Because he knew that since Xue Fuxiao had appeared here, and they were at a disadvantage, this time, they had to bleed.

Moreover, if it was less, Xue Fuxiao wouldn't agree either.

Dongfang Sansan wouldn't be satisfied either. So, three and a half parts was just right.

Three parts were what Taiyang Xingjun had just promised, and leaving half a part was also giving face to his subordinates. As for his own arrival, he simply proposed three and a half parts.

It seemed like a lot, but in reality, it was just an additional half part.

It was bearable.

Xue Fuxiao said, "Three and a half parts, a little less..."

But this number had actually exceeded expectations.

So he agreed, "Since that's the case, then I'll give Ziwei brother some face. Three and a half parts is three and a half parts."

"Xue brother is so straightforward," Ziwei Dadi laughed warmly, "Thank you, Xue brother, for giving me face."

Xue Fuxiao laughed heartily, "Looks like not reasoning is indeed a good approach."

Ziwei Dadi smiled bitterly, "Xue brother, but this idea of not reasoning, doesn't seem like you."

Xue Fuxiao blinked and said, "Not like me? Then who?"

This sentence was truly a stroke of genius.

Because Xue Fuxiao suddenly thought of the only person he could compare himself to, Sun Xiaoyang, who was also here.

And Ziwei Dadi obviously didn't know, so Xue Fuxiao wanted to draw out that sentence from him.

Ziwei Dadi never expected Xue Fuxiao to have such wit, and even more so, he didn't know that Sun Xiaoyang was here. Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment and said, "Xue brother, your approach of not reasoning, does seem a bit like that Sun Xiaoyang."

Oh! Oh! Oh!

Xue Fuxiao's heart was almost bursting with excitement.

I drew it out!

I did it!

I never knew that Xue Fuxiao was so skilled at plotting and scheming.

He narrowed his eyes and said, "You mean Sun Xiaoyang doesn't reason? Shameless?"

Ziwei Dadi smiled bitterly, "Xue brother is just joking. When has Sun Xiaoyang ever reasoned? When has he ever cared about face?"

Xue Fuxiao suddenly became interested, "Am I better than Sun Xiaoyang? Much better?"

Ziwei Dadi smiled elegantly, "Not bad, no matter what, Sun Xiaoyang can't compare to Xue brother!"

Before Xue Fuxiao could speak, a gloomy and repressed voice, filled with suppressed rage, rang out, "Ziwei, when has Sun Xiaoyang ever not reasoned? When have I ever been shameless? Am I inferior to Xue Fuxiao? Is that your evaluation?!"

With this voice,

Sun Xiaoyang simply revealed his true self, and his withered body floated out.

A chilling killing intent.

A pair of eyes, flickering like ghost fires, filled with malice, glared at Ziwei Dadi's face.

In an instant, it enveloped the entire Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower.

Boundless malevolent qi and killing aura surged and rippled, causing the entire Four Seas and Eight Directions Tower, including Xue Fuxiao and Fengyun Qi, to feel a chill.

"..."

Ziwei Dadi's elegant face twisted entirely.

He looked at Sun Xiaoyang in disbelief.

It was like seeing a ghost.

This was completely unexpected!

He had arrived early and knew that Sun Xiaoyang wasn't here, which was why he hadn't revealed himself. He was afraid that Fengyun Qi would hold him back and ask for things.

Ask for conditions.

Ask for resources.

So he hadn't shown himself until Xue Fuxiao appeared, and the situation became uncontrollable. Taiyang Xingjun and the others couldn't resist Xue Fuxiao, so he had no choice but to appear.

But how could Sun Xiaoyang be here?

What the hell, is this seeing a ghost? I've only made a few backhanded compliments in my life, and now, just by casually praising Xue Fuxiao, I mentioned Sun Xiaoyang.

And Sun Xiaoyang was actually here!

This is...

At this moment, Ziwei Dadi's surprise and embarrassment reached an extreme!

And on top of that, he had to face the wrath of Sun Xiaoyang, who had been insulted out of the blue!

Ziwei Dadi turned his head fiercely, but saw that Xue Fuxiao had already turned away, no longer looking at him.

Helpless, he turned around, feeling awkward but still maintaining politeness, and smiled, "Er... Brother Sun is also here, what a surprise... This, this..."

Sun Xiaoyang raged, "I'm asking you a question. When have I ever been shameless?"

Sun Xiaoyang was also clear that he had never reasoned, and he didn't care if others thought he was inferior to Xue Fuxiao.

After all, he was well aware of the infamous reputation of the Only Righteous Sect.

So his focus was on three words: shameless.

How dare you say I'm shameless?
