Chapter 36: Undying Body
Chapter 36: Undying Body
Upon hearing Mo Xiu's words, Mo Ruyi, Yan Ran, and Lin Jiannan were all stunned.
Yan Ran meant to marry Mo Xiu so as to achieve the purpose of letting the Mo Family help revenge, but listening to the meaning of Mo Xiu's words, he clearly meant to be the master of Yan Ran instead.
No matter what, Yan Ran also had the blood of the Yan Kingdom's royal family or the former Yan Kingdom's princess, how could it be possible for others to ride on her head, and even her life and death would be completely controlled by others?
Lin Jiannan, who had sincerely apologized to Mo Xiu just now, couldn't help it, and said angrily, "This is impossible! Her Royal Highness is noble and cannot be anyone's puppet. Instead of this, it is better not to take revenge."
Yan Ran didn't say anything, just lowered her head and sighed with a bit of a complicated expression.
Mo Xiu stood up from his seat, "It's your business if you want to avenge Yan Wuji or not. I won't persecute you. If you don't want to, just leave by yourself, I won't accompany you."
After speaking, he really moved forward and prepare to leave.
"Wait!"
Yan Ran finally couldn't help but speak.
Mo Xiu stopped and looked at Yan Ran.
Yan Ran raised her head, took a deep breath, and restrained her emotions, "I know your conditions, but how do I know if you have the ability to avenge me?"
"Princess!" Lin Jiannan was a little surprised.
Yan Ran raised her slender hand, motioned Lin Jiannan not to interrupt, and continued, "I heard that Wan Yixuan died in your hands but after all, it is just a rumor. The truth is unknown. I must confirm that you have the strength to help me get revenge. Otherwise, I cannot agree to your request anyway."
Mo Xiu: "Don't forget that you are the one who needs my help, I advise you to not take yourself so seriously. But well, how do you want to confirm?"
Yan Ran glanced at Mo Xiu and gritted her teeth slightly. Then she looked at Lin Jiannan, thinking for a while, and then said, "Uncle Lin was once one of the four masters in the kingdom. Although his strength today is far inferior to the other three, he's still an expert and should not be underestimated. If you can stand still and receive his attack without any damage, I can barely think that you have the strength to help me get revenge."
Hearing this, Mo Ruyi immediately became a bit angry, "As Mo Xiu said, don't be too arrogant. Otherwise, I don't mind cutting off every relationship we have. I don't care if you live or die. And in this place, you're not a princess."
"Well, I apologize." Yan Ran lowered her head.
With this, Lin Jiannan asked, "What is your cultivation base?"
Mo Xiu replied without thinking, "9th level of Qi Refining Realm."
"9th level of Qi Refining Realm?"
Soon he shook his head, "Whether it is the 9th level of Qi Refining Realm or the 9th level of Core Formation Realm, if you can't even stand still and receive my attack without any damage, it's nonsense to avenge Yan Wuji. Naturally, Wan Yixuan couldn't do it, but Wan Yixuan is Wan Yixuan, and Yan Wuji is much stronger than Wan Yixuan."
"Yes." Yan Ran nodded in agreement.
But Mo Ruyi felt that Lin Jiannan's words had some truth, she was still a little worried but chose to stay silent instead, because she believed in Mo Xiu.
Mo Xiu didn't care and said to Mo Ruyi, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Lin Jiannan, "Don't talk about three moves, even a hundred moves are fine. I'll just stand here and let you attack me, you can use your fists or any weapon, I will receive any of them."
"Well, you said it yourself. The sword has no eyes. Don't blame me for hurting you then!"
With that said, Lin Jiannan took out a sword and operate his True Energy. After a second, he swiped his sword and slashed towards Mo Xiu.
Mo Xiu didn't dodge. He just stood still as he said earlier. Without even frowning, he let Lin Jiannan's sword strike him.
As soon as the sword light flashed, a "poof" was heard, and that sword cut Mo Xiu in half easily.
"Huh"
Lin Jiannan was shocked immediately.
Yan Ran also couldn't believe it. She didn't expect Mo Xiu to be so vulnerable. For a while, she was a little dumbfounded.
Mo Ruyi stayed for a while, and soon shouted, "Mo Xiu!"
Before she could rush towards Mo Xiu, she found that the green light on Mo Xiu's body flickered and soon, his body was formed. He was split in half by Lin Jiannan's sword just now, but at the moment, he was unscathed, not even a trace of blood was seen.
If it weren't for Mo Xiu's clothes that really had an extra scratch, she was afraid that it would make her think that everything she just saw was just an illusion.
"Is that all to your power?" Mo Xiu turned to look at Lin Jiannan.
"How... how could it be?" Lin Jiannan was shocked.
Just now, he was surprised that he had cut Mo Xiu in half easily, but now, he was surprised that Mo Xiu had come back from the dead, unscathed, which was too weird.
What was going on? Could it be that it was really an illusion just now?
Or did it mean that Mo Xiu had an undying body?
He looked at the sword in his hand, the body of the sword was silvery-white, and he really couldn't see a drop of blood.
He thought that his speed was too fast just now so that the sword body was too late to be stained with blood. Now, it seemed that this was not the case at all.
Yan Ran and Mo Ruyi were also surprised, but when they were surprised, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In any case, Mo Xiu was fine, otherwise, they might all be distraught.
"Go on, I'll receive all of your attacks." Mo Xiu said calmly.
Lin Jiannan gritted his teeth, swung his sword again and again, his sword aura was fierce, and the sword light kept flickering. It could pierce Mo Xiu's body every time, and even split Mo Xiu's body in half. With the blink of an eye, Mo Xiu stood there unscathed again and again.
In desperation, he could only give up cutting with a sword, instead, he raised his hand and blasted Mo Xiu.
With a "bang", Mo Xiu remained motionless, but Lin Jiannan was shocked by a counter-shock force and flew out.
After finally standing still, looking at Mo Xiu again, Lin Jiannan had a trace of despair in his eyes.
After a while, he sighed and put the sword away, "You have won, I admit that you have the strength to help Yan Ran get revenge."
After speaking, he turned to look at Yan Ran and said apologetically, "Your Royal Highness, I'm very sorry."
Yan Ran shook her head slightly and signaled Lin Jiannan not to take it seriously, and immediately looked at Mo Xiu, "I recognize your strength. In that case, I can also agree with your request, in the premise that you must help me get revenge."
"Premise?" Mo Ruyi frowned slightly.
"Yes, this is the prerequisite." Yan Ran nodded, "In other words, as long as you help me get revenge, help me kill Yan Wuji, I can be your puppet, or your slave. I am willing to even die if you ask me to. But before that, I have no obligation to behave regarding your statement earlier."
"How can this possible?" Mo Ruyi was a little unhappy suddenly, "In this case, how do we know if you will go back on your words in the future?"
"No!" Yan Ran was very sure, "If you can solve even Yan Wuji, it would be easy to kill me. I have no reason to go back."
Mo Ruyi was still a little unwilling, but soon heard Mo Xiu say, "That's fine."
After finishing speaking, without even looking at the three people present, he walked straight away.
Yan Ran looked at Mo Xiu's leaving back and sighed in secret.
...
In the following days, Yan Ran, Lin Jie, and Lin Jiannan moved into the Mo Family.
People in the house already knew Yan Ran's identity and knew that Yan Ran was the former princess of the Yan Kingdom. Although they were worried that Yan Ran would cause trouble to the Mo Family, the Mo Family had already offended Yan Wuji, which was troublesome in itself, so the problem was not very big.
In fact, even if Yan Ran did not come to the door, Mo Xiu would go to Yan Ran sooner or later, after all, Yan Ran still had a certain value to him, otherwise, he would not save Yan Ran's life repeatedly.
After dealing with Yan Ran's affairs, Mo Xiu went to Dark Mist Mountain through the Teleportation Array in the courtyard.
Before, he refined four Shadow Demon Guards, now, he would refine four more in addition to refining a batch of Demon Puppets.
The refining method of the Demon Puppet was similar to that of the Shadow Demon Guard, but the strength of the Demon Puppet was far inferior to that of the Shadow Demon Guard, and it was easier to refine than the Shadow Demon Guard.
In the time to refine a Shadow Demon Guard, Mo Xiu could refine hundreds of Demon Puppets.
If the Shadow Demon Guard was the commander in command and the general, then the Demon Puppets were the soldiers under the Shadow Demon Guard.
Of course, the Shadow Demon Guard had unlimited growth possibilities, but the Demon Puppet did not.
Moreover, the individual strength of the Demon Puppets couldn't be so strong, but again, they were easy to refine and the number was large.
Even if Mo Xiu's refining level was very high, the strength of the Demon Puppet refined now could not reach the Core Formation Realm. At most, it could only reach the 9th level of the Foundation Building Realm.
Putting it in the Realm of Heaven, the Demon Puppets were similar to chicken ribs. Even if millions of Demon Puppets were refined, those immortals and demons could make all the Demons puppets disappear with a single wave. (A/N: I indeed used the term 'gods and demons' before, but that was only an exaggeration.)
Therefore, Mo Xiu in the previous life only refined the Shadow Demon Guards and had always dismissed the Demon Puppets.
Now that he was reborn in the Profound Sky Continent and his cultivation was far less than one ten-thousandth of his previous life, the Demon Puppet was still somewhat useful, after all, he would help Yan Ran get rid of Yan Wuji.
After several days of refining the four Shadow Demon Guards, Mo Xiu began to refine the Demon Puppets.
Countless ghosts were caught by Mo Xiu as they were refined into Demon Puppets one after another.
The voice of "Swish" continued to sound, and black shadows gradually spread across the entire Dark Mist Mountain.
...
Fu City.
The Qin Family, which was originally a first-class family in the city, suffered a sudden disaster and was wiped out in one fell swoop, and the main members of the Qin Family were also arrested.
It was not other Family members who did it, but the city lord of Fu City, and Song Qian, a cultivation expert in that area.
After taking over the Qin Family, Song Qian gave an order as 100,000 soldiers assembled and led the main members of the Qin Family to fight in Sun Martial City.
In less than a day, a hundred thousand troops approached the city and surrounded Sun Martial City.
Qin Wuyang, the former eldest lady of the Qin Family, was pushed out, and then listened to Song Qian said, "Go tell Mo Xiu, let him abolish his cultivation, and take Yan Ran out of the city. Otherwise, don't blame me for slaughtering the entire citizens of this Sun Martial City."
Qin Wuyang's eyes flickered, looking at Qin Huaili and others controlled by Song Qian, struggling for a while, nodded slightly, and then turned and walked towards Sun Martial City.
