The Anarchic Consort Chapter 751 – Arrogant

Chapter 751: Arrogant

Ni Hu’s face was completely distorted when his knees touched the ground. He muttered angrily through his clenched teeth in a deep voice, just like a caged beast.

Ni Biao grasped his mahogany sword tightly as he observed. He could hardly accept that his beloved son whom he raised with so much effort was being forced to kneel before those pricks!

I will never let them get away with this!

“Prepare yourselves. Find a way to get rid of these guys after they entered the graveyard.” Ni Biao instructed his disciples frigidly with a murderous look.

Ni Hu was already back to standing position though he was clearly displeased as he glared defiance toward Helian Wei Wei and the others.

One of the disciples felt bad and extended his hand to hold him, “Young Master…”

Smack!

Ni Hu slapped the hand away with force and pointed his finger toward Helian Wei Wei, “Don’t you dare think that you’re unbeatable just because you got here first! We’re all here at the tomb entrance now and you don’t know who shall prevail. Don’t you beg for our mercy after entering the tomb later!”

Helian Wei Wei smirked as she casually replied, “I remembered Young Master Ni said something of the sort before we took off. Well, you were the one who begged for mercy just now, not us.”

“You!” Ni Hu despised that fact the most!

Ni Biao reached out to block him and looked at Helian Wei Wei solemnly. “Brother, don’t be so full of yourself, you haven’t even entered the tomb. Who knows what you’ll encounter in there? Nobody can foresee the future. As your senior, here’s a word of advice. Stop being so arrogant.”

“Old Master Ni, you should say that to your son.” Helian Wei Wei raised her chin to meet Ni Biao’s gaze. Without giving in, she said, “Stop being so arrogant.”

Ni Biao burst into laughter, his eyes narrowed and his tone was cold, “Seems like getting here first has really boosted your confidence. I wonder if you know that despite being early, there are some who took off later than you did. Just like my eldest daughter, her group took off last. If you really want to look at it that way, then you haven’t won just yet.”

Ni Biao looked somewhat proud as he said that.

Almost all the competing exorcists knew that Ni Biao’s daughter who was the reincarnation of Phoenix Girl set out two hours after everyone left just to give the members of other families a head start.

This sole fact shrouded a doubt on Helian Wei Wei’s self-assured victorious attitude.

He was keen to see if everyone else would agree that the first victory belonged to the Zhuge family.

Even if they did agree, it would still not be a perfect victory!

Did they expect the Ni family to retreat after getting humiliated? Not so easy!

In any case, Ni Biao’s plan worked out perfectly. There seemed to be a small commotion within the crowd after his talk which was exactly the reaction he expected.

He observed Helian Wei Wei and the others as his grin reappeared.

Helian Wei Wei looked at him, her pupils were complete darkness without any impurity. She replied leisurely, “This is a competition and we won according to the rules. So why are you mentioning this nitty-gritty stuff to suppress us? If we do this based on your logic, will your group of thirty still be considered as defeated even if you arrived before our group of three since you outnumber us ten times? From the very beginning, everyone thought that we were going to lose. Now that we reach the royal tomb first, you’re trying to find some funny excuses to disregard our effort. I’d like to ask, is the result of the competition decided according to the rules or your say?”

As the leader of the Twelve Shadows of Tang Sect, apart from military business, she also majored in law and practiced as a lawyer.

She rarely put these skills to use since there was a specific department from the Tang Sect who took care of these matters. Furthermore, since the mistress of Young Master Tang could solve a case in no time, she did not need to deal with those matters.

However, she never lost her skills as a lawyer.

Ni Biao was attempting to attack them verbally, but he could never succeed without her permission!

A simple reply from Helian Wei Wei had once again made his face rigid!

Helian Wei Wei’s words were like a pebble gently tossed into a pool of water, causing ripples to spread over the surface.

There was a shift in the crowd’s gaze as they started to murmur among themselves.

“The number of people in the Ni family is equivalent to a few of our groups combined. It will not be easy to defeat them.”

“Exactly. The Zhuge family only sent three members as the others are too young to compete. It was not easy for them to win but they did anyway. So what is Old Master Ni going on about?”

“Well, he obviously doesn’t want to admit defeat which is understandable since the Ni family has never been defeated.”

“If that’s the case, then the Ni family is taking this too far!”

“Even Ni Hu’s apology was so insincere, that is not the kind of attitude that us exorcists should look up to.”

“Perhaps it’s just a misunderstanding. I’m sure Old Master Ni didn’t mean it that way. Let’s just wait and see.”

Ni Biao hated the situation he was in. He said those words to teach her a lesson but he ended up to be the one being told off.

He had underestimated this incapable, underprivileged little prick. He never expected that she would be this sharp-tongued!

Everything he said would be perceived wrongly now. Are they really expecting me to apologize to a junior?

How would I be able to face the crowd in the future?

Ni Biao clasped both his hands so tightly that they turned bright red. It was his first time in his life being humiliated like this.

No wonder Little Tiger had been falling under her trap. She was much more despicable than he had imagined. She also had some tricks up her sleeves and she knew how to put on a show in front of a crowd to suppress him…

He would have taken her down since the beginning if only he had known!

This was not Ni Biao’s first time in regretting his actions on the same day. Compared to his urge to kill earlier, the resentment in his eyes was surging gradually.

Helian Wei Wei who was standing opposite him frowned a little as she had not noticed the arrival of someone new.

Dressed in a fur cloak over a long dress, Ni Feng stood between Ni Biao and Helian Wei Wei. Her soft, gentle voice was like flowing water and it was pleasing to hear, “Please excuse us. Parents tend to brag about their children and I’m afraid that my father is no exception. He meant no harm. He was only mentioning that I took off later than everyone else and nothing more. I hope that you can understand the kind intentions of a parent, there is no need to make things complicated. Of course, the competition will be based on the rules. No matter who took off first, the person who arrived at the royal tomb first will win. In any case, it’s getting late and there are still two more rounds to go. No matter what the final result will be, we shall all enter the graveyard instead of wasting time speculating here.”
