“Since you have arrived, why the urgent desire to depart? Do stay a while longer!” a sinister voice spoke. “Young Master Chen, the Family Head requires an accounting from you!”

Chen Chen snorted coldly. “Be careful!” This warning was directed at Jun Moxie.

Just as Jun Moxie’s body shot forward, two figures intercepted him head-on!

“Careful?!” Jun Moxie laughed boisterously. “Perhaps the one who needs caution isn't this Uncle!” With a backhanded slap, two dull thuds echoed, and two figures were thrown back into the sky like rubber balls, spitting blood mid-air. Jun Moxie’s silhouette folded instantly in the air, landing him atop the building!

Chen Chen’s sudden, last-minute change of heart not only caught the members of the Three Great Holy Lands and the Chen family completely off guard, but it even left Jun Moxie somewhat unprepared! While Chen Chen’s unexpected defection would certainly throw the enemy into disarray, Young Master Jun’s original plan was now in ashes!

The principle of reciprocity—giving a peach in return for a plum—demanded that since Chen Chen had shown sincerity, Jun Moxie could not allow him to suffer undue humiliation. Thus, the exquisite strategy of slowly drawing out all the forces of the Three Great Holy Lands stationed there by manipulating Chen Chen, and then dismantling them at leisure, was now impossible!

However, Jun Moxie felt no frustration or disappointment. On the contrary, he was delighted. Though the day's events had greatly exceeded expectations, Young Master Jun felt the trip had been worthwhile.

Evil Lord Jun Moxie, whether in this life or the last, had many enemies but precious few friends—at most three or five across both lifetimes. Companions who understood one another on a deep level, as was the case today, were rare indeed. Yes, mutual appreciation; even enemies could share that. Not everyone arrayed against you was without admirable qualities! Chen Chen was like that today, as was the only survivor among the previous Six Great Sages, the Cold-Eyed Sage!

Although Young Master Jun’s own stance and methods would not change for anyone, Chen Chen had instilled in Jun Moxie a strange feeling: the feeling of not wanting to kill him...

So, Jun Moxie decided to overturn everything, cause a massive uproar, and drag the entire situation out into the open! As long as the news spread, the experts from the Three Great Holy Lands would continue to arrive in droves!

In the end, this made little difference compared to his original plan!

At most, it meant that the pressure facing Qi Moxie and the others would be slightly greater, and they would lose the advantage of striking an unprepared foe.

This was why Jun Moxie had resolutely plucked that tune, Laughing Proudly in the Jianghu, at that very moment! It was partly to fulfill a wish for Chen Chen, partly to escalate the entire conflict, and partly to vent the deep emotions he had long held back!

Since antiquity, how many could truly laugh proudly in the Jianghu?

I! I shall laugh proudly in the Jianghu—!

**City seemed destined to enter an era of bloody turmoil ahead of schedule! This Young Master had planned to play around a bit longer, but it
