Chapter 23: Starting the Massacre
Chapter 23: Starting the Massacre
In the martial arts field in Mo's mansion.
Almost all the members of the Mo Family were summoned, only a few were working in other places, and those who were not in Sun Martial City could not be notified.
Mo Hong and Mo Wuxian, this pair of father and son arrived late, and walked to the place where Mo Miao was surrounded by some confidants.
"Third brother, what the hell are you doing? Don't you want to tell me the winner now?" Mo Hong frowned and said.
It was Mo Miao who gathered the people this time, and now apart from Mo Hong, only Mo Miao had the ability to gather everyone together.
"It's not that I want to do some hell thing, this time I am also entrusted by others." Mo Miao shook his head slightly.
"Entrusted by others?" Mo Hong couldn't help being vigilant, "Who?"
At this time, Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi appeared from the crowd and came to Mo Miao.
"They!"
Mo Hong's right eyelid beat fiercely, and quickly looked at Mo Miao, and asked, "My dear third brother, when did you become their lackey?"
Regarding Mo Hong's insulting words, Mo Miao didn't take it seriously, but said, "I don't want to die yet."
After that, he looked towards Mo Xiu, "Mo Xiu, I will leave it to you next."
"Yah." Mo Xiu nodded.
After that, he took Mo Ruyi onto the high platform and looked around, his eyes were cold and majestic.
Even though many people in the Mo Family heard that Mo Xiu was no longer the fool he used to be, it was their first time to see Mo Xiu, and they couldn't help feeling a little curious about Mo Xiu.
But no one looked up to see Mo Xiu.
It was not that they didn't want to raise their heads, but there seemed to be an invisible power pressing on them, making them unable to raise their heads.
After a short silence, Mo Xiu just said, "I am Mo Xiu. I think you can all guess why I called you up today."
"The Guo Family's Patriarch and Zheng Family's Patriarch died in my hands a few days ago. Only a few days later, they have decided on a new Patriarch. But the position of the Mo Family's Patriarch has been vacant for a longer time, and it is still pending. Outsiders have been watching Mo Family's joke for quite a while now."
"Today, the members of the Mo Family are almost here. Since there has been no Patriarch, then let's choose a Patriarch..."
As soon as Mo Xiu talked about this, he swiftly heard a person below shouted, "I Agree! I choose the Second Master, Mo Hong to be the head of our Mo Family!"
"Yes, only Second Master has enough prestige to be the head of the Mo Family, and no one else is suitable." Soon, someone agreed.
Hearing that, the people on Mo Miao's side were not calm either. Someone immediately retorted, "What is Mo Hong? In terms of personal strength, the Third Master, Mo Miao is the strongest. The position of head of the Mo Family is only suitable for the Third Master."
"In terms of cultivation status, courage, and means, Mo Hong is not even worthy to lift the Second Master's shoes!" There were also many people on Mo Hong's side.
The people on both sides quarreled to the point that they almost took action against each other directly, and the scene was a bit chaotic for a while.
There were many people who supported Mo Hong and many people who supported Mo Miao, but no one supported Mo Xiu, let alone Mo Ruyi.
Upon seeing this, Mo Hong flashed a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
Originally, he was worried that Mo Xiu would go into a murderous predicament regardless of the rules.
If the action was taken directly, the people on his side were probably not Mo Xiu and Mo Miao's opponents, but if they wanted to fight, he really wouldn't necessarily lose, after all, there were no fewer people who supported him than those who supported Mo Miao.
He didn't start a big massacre but wanted to convince people with reason. This would be Mo Xiu's biggest failure, and perhaps it would also be an opportunity for him to turn defeat into victory.
As he was thinking secretly, he heard Mo Xiu say coldly, "Shut up! Did I let you talk?"
As soon as this voice fell, the real pressure fell on everyone, like a mountain, like a sea, like a shining mighty sky, making people almost wanted to collapse, so that many people almost kneeled on the ground on the spot.
The martial arts field, which was still extremely noisy just now, timely became quiet.
Most people had never seen Mo Xiu make a move.
A few people knew that Mo Xiu was very strong, but they didn't know how strong he was.
As for the people who had felt the pressure of Mo Xiu in the past, there were very few people.
Now, this coercion fell on everyone, including Mo Hong and Mo Miao, everyone was shocked.
How powerful was he to be able to release such a terrifying pressure?
Seeing everyone calm down, Mo Xiu took the pressure away just now, and continued, "I don't care who you support, but now, in this Mo Family, only I have the final say!"
If it had been just now, if they heard Mo Xiu say so arrogantly, someone would definitely stand up and rebuke him.
But now, even if Mo Xiu spoke higher than this level, no one in the room dared to speak.
No one wanted to feel the pressure just now again.
Terrible!
That kind of coercion was simply not something they could afford to stay under.
No matter how dissatisfied they were, they must not stand up against Mo Xiu at this time, otherwise, it would be a dead end.
Mo Xiu naturally saw that everyone's situation, they were angry but didn't dare to speak. He didn't take it seriously, and continued to say, "From today onwards, Mo Ruyi will become the head of the Mo Gamily. You must listen to her when she orders things."
As soon as this remark came out, someone finally couldn't help it. Although there was still a trace of fear in his heart for the coercion just now, he still stood up and said, "What are you kidding? How can an outsider like Mo Ruyi become the head of the Mo Family? "
Mo Xiu looked at the speaker and recognized the identity of the other person.
Mo Rusong, a 5th level Core Formation cultivator. According to his seniority, both Mo Hong and Mo Miao had to call him "Uncle" when they saw him. To Mo Xiu, he was even a grandfather generation character.
Of course, this Mo Rusong was not a direct descendant of the Mo Family, so he did not have the right to fight for the position of Patriarch.
According to Mo Xiu's understanding, this Mo Rusong was a supporter of Mo Hong, but he didn't know whether he stood up against him, or whether he stood in the position of a member of the Mo Family, or whether he stood up with a status of a supporter of Mo Hong.
But no matter which position, it made no difference to Mo Xiu.
He looked at Mo Rusong and said, "So, do you not agree?"
"Naturally, it is impossible to agree." Mo Rusong snorted coldly. "Rather than let an outsider be the head of the Mo Family, it is better to let me be, let alone a woman whose only obligation is to find a good family to marry. How can the duty of the head of the family be suitable for her? Do you want to be laughed at by the world?"
Hearing this, everyone nodded secretly, feeling that Mo Rumson's remarks were very reasonable.
Mo Xiu didn't intend to reason with people. He mobilized the True Essence Power in his body to activate the Profound Yellow Battle Body, and an extremely violent aura burst out.
"Since you don't agree, then go to death!"
His figure flashed, Mo Xiu had disappeared from the high platform, appeared in front of Mo Rusong in the blink of an eye, and blasted his hand towards Mo Rusong.
"So fast!" Mo Rusong was startled.
Before he could retaliate, Mo Xiu's punch had already landed on him.
With a "bang", Mo Rusong flew upside down and smashed several people behind him.
"Puff"
Blood spattered.
When everyone looked in the direction Mo Rusong flew out, they saw a huge hole in Mo Rusong's chest. His eyes were wide open, with an unbelievable expression on his face. His death was very miserable.
With just one punch, a warrior with the cultivation of 5th level Core Formation Realm was killed!
Many people took a breath and were shocked.
Of course, they knew that Mo Xiu was very strong, but it was the first time they saw Mo Xiu take a shot.
And not long ago, Mo Xiu was still a fool who had no power to even bind a chicken, and needed people to take care of all kinds of things for him.
He was already so strong to this point within a few days. If it was another ten days and a half, or even another three to five years, wouldn't he be invincible in the world?
Mo Xiu killed Mo Rusong in front of everyone. This still made people feel a little uncomfortable.
Someone immediately stood up and accused, "Mo Xiu, how dare you kill someone?"
If it was a feud, grievances were unavoidable, and in a world where human lives were like grass, it was no big deal to kill and die.
But now, the person who died was Mo Rusong, a member of the Mo Family, and the place of the incident was inside the Mo Family, and it was still when everyone gathered together to discuss the position of the family leader.
At this time, the people who killed the Mo Family on this occasion simply didn't take the Mo Family's rules into consideration.
If this kind of thing could be tolerated, wouldn't the Mo Family in the future have blood flow when deciding where to belong?
Mo Xiu didn't take the person's rebuke to his heart, and said with a cold face, "When I, Mo Xiu, kill people, do I need to explain to you too?"
"Devil! You are a devil!"
The man cursed angrily, then turned around and said to everyone, "Everyone, let's get rid of this demon today, or else my Mo Family will be destroyed by him in the future!"
As soon as this statement came out, there were countless responders, and everyone roared and rushed towards Mo Xiu, launching an attack against Mo Xiu.
Mo Xiu stood still, but invisibly swept out the Soul Devouring Knife like a violent storm, breaking everyone's Spiritual Platform.
"Boom, boom!"
One after another, Mo Family's cultivators fell to the ground.
From beginning to end, no one could get close to Mo Xiu, let alone touch Mo Xiu's body.
When the corpses piled up on the ground and no one rushed towards him anymore, Mo Xiu looked at the person who said he was the demon.
"Why... how could this happen?!" The man opened his eyes wide, unbelievable.
Feeling Mo Xiu's cold eyes, he only felt his liver and gallbladder split, and his body tremored involuntarily.
Mo Xiu stepped forward with a punch. After the "bang", the man was blasted into the air. In a blink of an eye, blood was splashed, and his pupils turned white.
The martial arts field, which was still overcrowded at the beginning, was now sparser.
A small part of the dead were supporters of Mo Miao, most of them were supporters of Mo Hong.
Mo Hong naturally didn't take the shot himself, so he neither died under the Soul Devouring Knife nor was killed by Mo Xiu's punch.
After seeing so many people die tragically, Mo Hong was also shocked.
He had sent assassins to assassinate Mo Xiu before, but not many people were sent out at that time, and he only knew that the people sent out were wiped out, he didn't know the detailed process.
When the five great families wanted to capture Mo Xiu, he was there, but those from the Guo and Zheng family didn't die in the hands of Mo Xiu, but died in the killing formation that Mo Xiu laid.
At that time, he only knew the result. As for how the killing array worked, he didn't know exactly how the Guo family and Zheng family died.
Originally, he thought that even if Mo Xiu was really strong, there should be a limit to this adjective. It was estimated that after joining hands with Mo Miao, he could barely wipe out all his power.
Only now did he realize how outrageous his thinking was.
Mo Xiu's strength had exceeded his cognition, so much to the point that he didn't need to join forces with other people, and only he alone could destroy his joined forces.
Too strong! He was so powerful that Mo Hong felt unreal!
While shocked in his heart, he also realized that something was wrong.
Most of the supporters had already died in Mo Xiu's hands, and now let alone Mo Xiu, even Mo Miao could kill him.
Escape!
He must take advantage of Mo Xiu and Mo Miao's unresponsiveness to flee, and wait until they become stronger in the future, and then retaliate for today's revenge.
He didn't even remind Mo Wuxian to escape for his life. He backed two or three steps in a row, and then retreated to the edge of the martial arts field before turning around, tiptoeing like a thief, preparing to escape quietly.
However, before he could escape, a shapeless force fell on him, and the huge suction force pulled him upside down and flew back, and fell on Mo Xiu's feet with a "puff".
