Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 2043: Chapter 977: Defying Fate (2)

From the time he discovered some clues at Solitary Mountain, to later encounters with tomb robbers, entering the Shen Family’s burial grounds, corpse infestation, thousands of corpses sealing the coffin, and the crowd of demons, including the Prince of the Great Wilderness, leader of the Demon Sect, the Second Elder of the Demon Sect, late Golden Core stage monster cultivators, and the young master of the Mystic Demon Sect, and so on.

What exactly did the Shen Family do, the origin of the pit of ten thousand, the purpose of the burial, and the restoration of the Great Wilderness royal family...

Apart from some secrets truly involving the Evil God and the Divine Way of Lord Yellow Mountain, which were hidden by Mo Hua.

The remaining facts, Mo Hua told Master Xia in detail.

Even Master Xia, who held an important position and was well-informed, found it almost unbelievable after hearing it.

The pit of ten thousand, aristocratic family committing slaughter, the Demon Sect nurturing dragons, Great Wilderness rebellion...

The causes and effects in all these are just too complicated.

The issues are also too serious.

Especially the things like ”nurturing dragons” and ”rebellion,” essentially stepping on the death line set by the Taoist Court.

If it remains hidden, that’s good, but once exposed, if people make a big fuss, it might really shock the Taoist Court, and then there will surely be a bloody storm.

Master Xia was secretly alarmed.

He glanced at Mo Hua again, feeling even more surprised.

In such a situation where demons were clustered, late Golden Core stage battles were occurring, chaotic and unstable, this kid could indeed survive without lacking an arm or a leg, and even come peacefully to the Taoist Court to drink tea?

Master Xia frowned.

The Xia family’s group of prodigies, perhaps had better qualifications, higher cultivation, bigger ambitions, but in terms of ability and composure, there were indeed few who could surpass him...

Master Xia was silent for a long time, digesting the information disclosed by Mo Hua in his heart.

Moments later, his gaze slightly condensed, and he slowly said: ”Little brother, you tell me this, are you asking me... to deal with the Shen Family?”

Mo Hua asked: ”Will you?”

Master Xia said: ”Half of Solitary Mountain was blown up by the Shen Family, everything inside turned into dust, buried deep underground. Even if there is evidence, it’s mostly destroyed. Without tangible proof, it’s impossible to convict the Shen Family.”

That’s what he said, but Mo Hua knew, even if there was evidence, Master Xia might not necessarily act against the Shen Family.

Aristocratic families value interests.

The Taoist Court weighs the situation.

No one prioritizes ”fairness” and ”justice” as first.

Master Xia is the same.

He may not be a bad person, but neither is he necessarily a good person, dealing with people and matters, he inevitably first weighs pros and cons, seeking the greatest benefit.

If he finds someone useful, he will try to pull them in, but if one day he finds someone useless, he will certainly betray them.

The Shen Family matter is the same.

If there truly is ”evidence,” in Master Xia’s possession, the first thing he certainly would want to do is use such ”evidence” to fight for the greatest benefits for the Xia family, for himself.

Mo Hua didn’t expect Master Xia to really deal with the Shen Family.

His purpose was only to hand the ”knife” to Master Xia, giving him a ”gap” to cut a piece of fat meat from the Shen Family.

Master Xia represents the vast Xia family, represents the dominant Taoist Court, as long as he enters the scene, it will surely give the Shen Family tremendous pressure.

The Shen Family will surely have no time to attend other matters.

Even if in the end, he and the Shen Family ”collude,” that also means he has cut a huge benefit from the Shen Family.

The cost of ”bribing” this Taoist Court inspector must be enormous.

The Shen Family will surely have to cut a big piece, bleed heavily.

As long as it can weaken the Shen Family’s strength, that’s a good thing.

The Shen Family is a fifth-grade aristocratic family, in the Qian Learning State Boundary, it is a huge presence, Mo Hua alone as a small Foundation Building Cultivator, certainly cannot overturn it.

The matter of Solitary Mountain, although exposed, but with the Old Ancestor of Shen Family scheming, the end result may not be satisfactory.

Thus, what Mo Hua can do, is to disrupt as much as possible.

The Shen Family, exhausted from running around, will not focus their attention on himself.

And once the interests eaten away by others are too much, the Shen Family injures its Vital Energy, internally there will be more and more conflicts erupting.

A centipede dies yet does not stiffen.

The downfall of an aristocratic family, most often isn’t a matter of a day or two.

The current Mo Hua can only do so much.

As for how much the Shen Family will bleed this time, Mo Hua isn’t quite sure, but he believes in the greed of aristocratic families and the tactics of the Taoist Court.

Other matters are not for him to consider.

Mo Hua spoke truthfully to Master Xia:

”I dislike the Shen Family, but the matter of Solitary Mountain is too big, I still need to focus on cultivation, can’t manage too much, nor do I have the ability to manage it.”

”Moreover, adhering to Taoist Law, serving the public and enforcing the law, is the responsibility of the Taoist Court, I, a mere sect disciple, can only fulfill my duty by revealing the Shen Family’s inside story. The matter of Solitary Mountain can only be presided over by you, Inspector Master.”

Mo Hua spoke righteously, and distanced himself.

The next matters are the responsibility of the Taoist Court.

Inspector Xia looked deeply at Mo Hua, ”Is this all?”

”Yes.” Mo Hua nodded.

”You have no other requests?”

Mo Hua thought for a moment, and said: ”Only one, please don’t mention me. Otherwise, if the Shen Family finds out I leaked the secret to you, they will surely make every effort to trouble me. I won’t be able to peacefully cultivate at Taixu Gate.”

Inspector Xia solemnly nodded, ”Naturally, rest assured.”

The act of whistleblowing, in the Taoist Court, is subject to strict protection.

Moreover, Mo Hua’s identity is special.

If he didn’t inform these matters to himself, it wouldn’t matter, but now that he personally disclosed them, emotionally and rationally, the Taoist Court must find ways to keep his secret.

Otherwise, it’ll offend Taixu Gate and lose the Taoist Court inspector’s credibility.
