Chapter 24: Seek a Dead End
Chapter 24: Seek a Dead End
"M-Mo... Xiu." Mo Hong raised his head and glanced at Mo Xiu, frightened to speak.
"Do you think you can escape in this wrong situation? Then are you going to come back to find me for revenge when you become stronger?" Mo Xiu looked at Mo Hong coldly.
Mo Hong's heart was stunned, and he didn't expect that even his inner thought could be guessed by Mo Xiu.
He quickly knelt down towards Mo Xiu, "Mo Xiu, you have misunderstood me. I never thought about running away, let alone seeking revenge from you. I... I have asked for enough troubles."
Having said that, he remembered something, and quickly stated, "I support Ruyi as the head of the Mo Family. What order Ruyi has in the future, I will definitely be the first to execute it!"
"No, I never thought about getting your support." Mo Xiu raised his right foot and stepped on Mo Hong's head without care.
With a "boom", rubble splashed.
Mo Hong's head was deeply buried in the ground of the martial arts field, his limbs trembled slightly, and soon there was no movement.
Seeing this scene, Mo Miao, who was not far away, was frightened and rejoiced at the same time.
Fortunately, he didn't offend Mo Xiu very much at the beginning. The only time he shot Mo Xiu was to let Ru Hua poison Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi. However, the half bottle of Peerless Autumn Dew was not his own. It was provided by Mo Hong.
Of course, he felt that the more important thing was that he stopped in time, bowed his head to Mo Xiu, and surrendered to Mo Xiu before things became irreversible. Otherwise, he might not end up much better than Mo Hong.
Mo Hong was dead, Mo Hong's faction was almost wiped out too, but one person was still alive.
Mo Miao couldn't help but look at Mo Wuxian, wanting to see how Mo Wuxian would end up.
The rest of the people also looked at Mo Wuxian immediately, but there was a trace of sympathy in their eyes as if they had foreseen the end of Mo Wuxian.
A series of changes made Mo Wuxian almost unresponsive.
Mo Hong's death was even more like a lightning strike to him.
However, he also knew that it was not the time to be sad but to find a way to help himself.
With a thought, he quickly rushed towards Mo Ruyi on the high platform, still not forgetting to shout, "Sister Ruyi! Sister Ruyi, help me!"
A few days ago, Mo Hong was in great power, and Mo Wuxian, as Mo Hong's son, forced Mo Ruyi to be his concubine.
After being rejected by Mo Ruyi, Mo Wuxian not only transferred all the people in the courtyard where Mo Ruyi and Mo Xiu lived, so that Mo Ruyi was unattended, but also sent Lin Nan to fight Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi and drive them out of the Mo Family.
Had it not been for Mo Xiu's sudden awakening and possessing many countermeasures to solve the invading enemy, Mo Ruyi and Mo Xiu would have been driven out of the house and had been attacked by Mo Hong and his son long ago.
Today, Mo Hong himself and most of Mo Hong's supporters had been killed by Mo Xiu. In order to survive, Mo Wuxian kneeled in front of Mo Ruyi, crying for help.
Affairs of humans were this variable, and nothing more.
Mo Ruyi couldn't help feeling very emotional, looking at Mo Wuxian who was kneeling in front of her, her expression was a bit complicated.
Mo Xiu didn't stop Mo Wuxian from asking for help from Mo Ruyi, but no one dared to confront him face to face, so he soon returned to the high platform.
"Mo Xiu, how to deal with him?" Mo Ruyi looked at Mo Xiu.
"You decide for yourself, after all, you are the one who wants to become the head of the Mo Family." Mo Xiu didn't even look at Mo Wuxian, and didn't take Mo Wuxian seriously.
"Okay." Mo Ruyi nodded gently.
Soon, she looked at Mo Wuxian who was kneeling in front of her again, and said coldly, "Mo Wuxian, when you forced me to be your concubine, have you ever thought that you have today too?"
"Sister Ruyi, I... I was confused for a while, and I was fascinated by your beauty. I will definitely not be so rude anymore. Even if you give me a hundred courage, I will not have any blasphemous thoughts about you again in the future." Mo Wuxian repented and said.
"Do you still want to have a future?" Mo Ruyi shook her head slightly.
Mo Wuxian was shocked, realizing that Mo Ruyi might not spare him anymore, his thoughts turned sharply, and he curled up with his stomach.
"Ouch, my stomach! It hurts!"
He was wailing as if he was beaten in his stomach, then secretly, he took advantage of everyone's attention, and quickly took out a pill and stuffed it into his mouth.
The Storm Pill could make the True Essence Power soar in a short time.
Originally, Mo Wuxian was a 9th level Foundation Building Realm cultivator. After taking the Storm Pill, the True Essence Power in his body started surging wildly. Although his cultivation level did not break through, his combat power increased several times.
Mo Ruyi didn't notice Mo Wuxian's secret actions and thought that Mo Wuxian was uneasy in his stomach.
Before she could react, Mo Wuxian straight off jumped up and pinched Mo Ruyi's white neck with one hand, and came behind Mo Ruyi and held her in the hold.
Seeing this scene, everyone was a little surprised.
Not surprised that Mo Ruyi was held hostage so easily, but surprised that Mo Wuxian could survive from desperation at this time.
"Mo Wuxian, what do you want to do?" Mo Ruyi also did not expect such a thing to happen, but at this moment she was still calm, after all, the person being held hostage was her Mo Ruyi, not Mo Xiu.
She had already regarded Mo Xiu as more important than her own life, so as long as it wasn't for Mo Xiu being held hostage, nothing would make her panic.
Mo Wuxian was relieved.
He really focused on Mo Ruyi from the beginning, and then he would ask for help from Mo Ruyi. At that time, he made a plan to hijack Mo Ruyi and run away without any results.
However, he was very clear about his own strength. He was not Mo Ruyi's opponent at all, not to mention Mo Ruyi had that kind of very powerful palm technique.
If he wanted to make the hijacking plan a success, he could only use Storm Pill to temporarily increase his strength.
Even so, he still couldn't guarantee the success of the plan, after all, even after taking the Storm Pill, his strength couldn't be compared even with the former Chen Feiyan.
Only when he suddenly attacked and prevented Mo Ruyi from having the opportunity to use the Great Demon Heavenly Palm could he hold Mo Ruyi away.
Now that he had done it, he really didn't give Mo Ruyi a chance to use the Great Demon Heavenly Palm, and in the blink of an eye, he hijacked Mo Ruyi, so that he didn't need to worry much about Mo Ruyi.
Only one Mo Xiu remained.
But as long as Mo Xiu cared about Mo Ruyi's safety, he shouldn't attack him.
As for Mo Xiu's intangible means of killing people, it was indeed impossible to prevent, but Mo Wuxian had enough confidence within him.
He believed that even if Mo Xiu resorted to such intangible means to kill him, he could drag Mo Ruyi into the water before he died, and he could end her life.
So, either escape from here, or die with Mo Ruyi!
He did not answer Mo Ruyi's question. Instead, he looked at Mo Xiu and said coldly, "Mo Xiu, if you don't want this woman to be in trouble, let me go. I promise I won't come back to trouble you in the future."
"Trouble with me? Just rely on you?" Mo Xiu's expressionless face was full of disdain.
Mo Wuxian laughed, "You are still so arrogant, but I want to tell you, there are so many powerful people in the world, do you think you can be invincible with some means? There are people in this world who can restrain your means. "
"..."
Mo Xiu shook his head slightly.
If it was in the Realm of Heaven, there were indeed people who could restrain his methods, but he didn't care about how powerful a person was in such a small Profound Sky Continent.
How could his powerful methods something that Mo Wuxian a frog in the bottom of the well can imagine?
"Don't worry, I won't find someone to deal with you, and I won't come back to trouble you. I just took the Storm Pill, and I will probably become a useless person in the future, so I won't threaten you. I just want to live! "Mo Wuxian said again.
"Mo Xiu, don't worry about me, he said so, but he will definitely come back for revenge in the future, so you must not let him go!" Mo Ruyi disregarded her safety and began to discourage him.
"Shut up!" Mo Wuxian was furious.
Mo Xiu looked at Mo Wuxian and Mo Ruyi as if watching a farce.
After a while, he sighed, "Originally, I didn't intend to kill you personally, but you just wanted to kill yourself. So let's take this as you don't have other ways anymore."
As soon as his voice fell, the Soul Devouring Knife had already pierced Mo Wuxian's body and busted Mo Wuxian's Spiritual Platform.
Mo Wuxian was shocked, trying to increase his strength to choke Mo Ruyi to death, and to die with Mo Ruyi. But that was just his wishful thought, he fell to the ground in the blink of an eye.
At this point, the people of Mo Hong's faction were almost wiped out. Only a few individuals remained. In the future, they would either support Mo Ruyi, or depend on Mo Miao, or they would have to leave the Mo Family by themselves.
In short, it was no longer a big climate.
After the massacre, no one dared to stand up and rebuked Mo Xiu, but it was not easy to get them to support Mo Ruyi. After all, most people just remain silent, and silence did not mean support.
Mo Xiu looked at everyone and said, "No one should disagree that Mo Ruyi should be the head of the Mo Family, right?"
Everyone looked at Mo Miao, after all, after Mo Hong died, Mo Miao became the only person qualified to fight against Mo Xiu.
However, Mo Miao did not speak up from the beginning to the end, so the remaining people also continued to remain silent.
Mo Xiu had a full view of everyone's reaction, and continued, "I know there are still some of you who disagree, but I won't say it. It doesn't matter, I can give you all a chance..."
After a pause, he continued, "Three days later, gather in this place again. Any one of you who wants to be the head of the house can challenge Mo Ruyi. As long as anyone can defeat Mo Ruyi, I can let him replace Mo Ruyi and become a new master of the Mo Family, I do what I say."
When this remark came out, everyone was in an uproar.
"Young Master, what do you mean is that as long as you can defeat the Young Miss, even the servants in the house like me may become the head of the Mo Family?" One of the servants couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, no matter what means you use, as long as you can defeat her, I will admit it." Mo Xiu nodded lightly.
Hearing that, all the servants jumped for joy, even if their strength was limited, no matter how strong they were, it was still impossible to defeat Mo Ruyi, but it did not prevent them from feeling that they had taken advantage.
Those of the Mo Family's children looked a little ugly, and they didn't expect Mo Xiu to choose this method.
Originally, the bloodline of the Mo Family was the noblest. Only those with the Mo Family bloodline were qualified to be the Mo Family's Patriarch, which was why Mo Ruyi was not recognized.
But Mo Xiu abruptly changed the inheritance system of the position of the sovereign and the head of the family, and did not take the so-called family rules in his eyes at all. It was simply a rebellion and only cared about immediate interests, regardless of the flood behind him.
If Mo Xiu continued to do this, wouldn't the Mo Family be replaced by outsiders sooner or later and become another family?
No matter what, they must find a way to stop it, even if they had to kill Mo Ruyi!
Those powerful consecrations in the mansion, at this time, their eyes flickered, eager to try.
Those servants and workers were limited in strength and could not defeat Mo Ruyi, but these enshrines were not weak.
Let them challenge Mo Xiu, they didn't have the guts yet, but Mo Ruyi's strength was not very strong, otherwise, she would not have been held hostage by Mo Wuxian just now.
In other words, the possibility of them defeating Mo Ruyi was very high.
Although even if they could become the head of the Mo Family, it was Mo Xiu who still had the final say, but that was also pretty good. Being a puppet master was much better than being an offering.
Wouldn't it be a pity if such a god-given opportunity was not grasped?
