766 Shen Jing Awakens (1/2)

Upon hearing what Mo Wen had to say, Shen Jing's adoptive parents' expressions suddenly changed drastically.

\”Shen Jing is the daughter that we raised. She belongs to us, dead or alive. What gives you the right to take her away?\” Shen Jing's adoptive mother screamed.

What right did he have to take away the daughter that she had raised? She still hoped that this daughter would provide them with a wealthy life in their later years.

Furthermore, Shen Jing worked with Lin Qing and had many investments in her hands. They were well aware of that and had long coveted those assets. How could they let those assets slip away from them so easily?

\”You are not qualified to be her parents. That's it. From now on, Shen Jing has no relationship with either of you. You exhausted your remaining ties with her when you forced her to choose death,\” Mo Wen said coldly. He could not sense any family love in the eyes of these two people. Their eyes were filled with greed and schemes.

\”She is my daughter! You can't take her away!\” Shen Jing's adoptive mother was adamant. Her potential to be a shrew was unleashed completely. This matter was related to her own benefits. Throwing all caution to the wind, she was stirring up quite a scene. She was only a step away from rolling on the ground while wailing.

\”Is she your daughter?\” Mo Wen coldly laughed. He plainly said, \”I can also not take her away. I can ask her to continue recognizing both of you as parents. But you both must die. Do you dare to also use your death to make up for your wrongs? If you dare, I will ask Shen Jing to bury you both as your daughter.\”

\”You… You want to murder us! It's illegal to murder people. You murderer. You will be punished by the law and be shot.\” Shen Jing's adoptive father was not calm either. Why was it that the more he spoke, the more threatened he felt? His back was covered in cold sweat.

\”Illegal? Humph! I have ten thousand 'illegal' ways to murder you that can also guarantee that you will die without any trace. It will look exactly the same as a natural death. Do you believe me?\” Mo Wen said as he looked at the two of them while smiling playfully.

\”You demon, you murderer. You can't do this. You will be punished…\” Madam Shen was so scared that her entire body was tingling from top to bottom. She had seen the methods of these ancient martial art practitioners before. They could truly do such things. Just thinking that she may die unknowingly, she felt the sky falling down on her. Her face was deadly pale.

\”Simply put, the choice is up to you. Before I change my mind, get the hell out of here. Otherwise, I cannot be certain that I will not kill you right now,\” Mo Wen said impatiently.

The two of them were terrified. They did not dare to say another word, fumbling in their haste to get out of the office. They ran as though they would die at the hands of Mo Wen, this demon, if they moved a step slower.

\”What's going on?\”

Right after Shen Jing's adoptive parents left the office, Dongfang Yi walked in and stared at Mo Wen and the rest incredulously. The current situation seemed a little off. Where were the troublemakers?

Didn't they say Fan Junsheng had come to the hospital and was stirring up trouble? Why were there only Mo Wen, Lin Qing and a few others in the office?

\”The matter has been settled. You came too late.\” Lin Qing rolled her eyes at him.

\”It has been settled?\” Dongfang Yi was stunned. How long had it been? He merely made a call downstairs and the case had been settled?

\”Most likely the Crimson Star Sect will not let this go so easily. You should stay alert. Don't let your guard down. I have other matters of the Group that I need to attend to. I will leave first.\” Lin Qing left the office after saying this to Mo Wen.

\”Mo Wen…\” Dongfang Yi had something else to say.

But Mo Wen had no intention of paying him any heed. Mo Wen walked straight out of the hospital, called a cab and returned to the university.

Dongfang Yi had no choice but to find Han Jiangong and Hu Tianfeng to ask them about what had happened.

\”What? Mo Wen punched Fan Junsheng and crippled the cultivation of a Crimson Star Sect elder? Terrible! This is terrible. Mo Wen and his bad temper. Why can't he change a little?\” Dongfang Yi was shocked after he found out what had happened. He knew that Mo Wen was not someone to be messed with. Yet, he had never expected that Mo Wen would have done such a thing.

\”The Crimson Star Sect will definitely not let this go easily. Why are all of you so impulsive?\” Right now, Dongfang Yi felt utterly helpless. He had persuaded them for so long, yet his effort was useless.

\”If you knew what kind of person Fan Junsheng is, you wouldn't be able to resist punching him either. A punch cannot be retracted. Why is it that the Crimson Star Sect can bully us, yet we are not allowed to retaliate? We, the Dafang Sect, are not pushovers.\” Hu Tianfeng coldly snorted. Even now, Hu Tianfeng was itching to slap Fan Junsheng to death when he thought of that brute. After he knew that Mo Wen had broken through to the Golden Elixir Realm, he had few scruples with the Crimson Star Sect.

When Mo Wen reached the university, the sun had already set. Night descended.

Qin Xiaoyou had already prepared a table full of dishes and was waiting for Mo Wen to come home and eat. Maybe it was because Mo Wen had come home that there were more dishes than usual. The table was covered in delicacies.

\”What are you looking at? Is there something on my face?\” Mo Wen was eating when he suddenly noticed that something was off. Why was Qin Xiaoyou poking around with her chopsticks? She had not eaten anything and was just watching him eat.

\”Can't I just watch you? You leave for a few months at a time. Normally I can't see you even if I wanted to,\” Qin Xiaoyou complained.

Mo Wen was somewhat embarrassed. He lowered his head and focused on eating, not daring to say anything else.

\”Mo Wen.\”

\”Huh?\”

Qin Xiaoyou didn't say anything.

\”Yes?\”

\”Mo Wen…\”

\”Hmm.\”

Qin Xiaoyou once again fell silent.
