Chapter 113 - Yun Shang and Moon Slaughter. (2/2)
The man sneered seeing the woman's last struggle, ”Give it up, Yun Ling Xing! Do you really think that you can kill us with your meager Divine King Realm Cultivation?”
The woman, Ling Xing, grimaced hearing him since it was the truth. She was too weak, not only in strength but also because of her injuries. If she was in her prime, then there might be a chance that she would able to run away – she could tell that her body would not last long, and she would die. She at least wanted to save her daughter.
”Sniff*…Mother…I am scared…” The woman looked at her scared daughter's pale face; she felt her heart bleed, seeing her daughter. She has already lost her husband by these people's hands, and she knew that she would not live long.
Ling Xing could only grit her teeth in pain and sorrow that her heartfelt; the hopelessness was taking over her as she watched the man walking towards her with a grin plastered on his hateful face.
Just when the man was about to touch her, ”Eh?” he looked dumbfounded as if not able to perceive what was happening to him. All he saw that a man standing before him, gripping his hand – before he could think anything, Moon Slaughter jerked his hand off his body, resulting in a fountain of blood.
”Eh…aaaaaaaaa!!” the person, whose hand was pulled out, shouted hysterically. ”My…My hand!” he yelled as he rolled on the ground in pain.
The other person was startled by the sudden development. He looked towards the Moon Slaughter and bellowed, ”Ignorant fool! Do you even know who you are protecting?! She is a member of the Yun Clan, the clan of traitors! And you dared to attack us, members of Thousand Desolation Realm, for the traitors!”
Moon Slaughter looked towards him and sneered, ”Thousand Desolation Realm? What is that? I've never heard of it.”
”You?! You're saying that you have never heard of Thousand Desolation Realm? One of the High-Rank Star Realm?!”
”Whether it is thousand or hundred, none of it matters to me. I will give you a chance, leave. Or I will make a mince meatball out of you.” Moon Slaughter said, but then he felt a sudden chill when he talked about making meatballs. He wondered if it was his imagination as he never felt such chill, not even from his master, Wang Lei.
The person, who was rolling on the ground in the agony of losing his arm, finally seemed to calm down. With his face full of sweat, he looked towards Moon Slaughter with a deathly glare, ”You fuċkɨnġ bastard! I will kill you!” He shouted.
Moon Slaughter looked towards him and smirked. The man felt a chill running down his spine, but before he could do anything, he saw a palm covering his vision and seems to come closer.
Moon Slaughter gripped his face and grinned manically. Tightening his grip, he slowly increased his strength and ripped the head with spine attacked out of his body. Blood gushed out of his headless and spineless body, dying Moon Slaughter in it.
”Hehehahahahahhahaheheahhahah!” He started to laugh loudly.
'How long has it been? How long has it been since I have killed and dyed myself in my enemy's blood?' he thought but did not stop laughing.
The other person, who was left, staggered backward and falling on his buŧŧ. He fearfully looked at Moon Slaughter when he saw his dark abyssal eyes gazing at him. The man becomes so afraid that he pissed his pants.
Seeing it, Moon Slaughter's face turn into disgust as he said, ”Get the fuċk out of here! Trash!”
The man did not think for a second before running back to his sect. He was just too afraid of Moon Slaughter.
When the other man was gone, Moon Slaughter looked back at the woman. Her face was filled with shock and fear. She took two or three fearful back-step before asking, ”Who are you?”
Looking at the woman, Moon Slaughter did not know what to say. He saved her on his wimp…or was it? He, himself, did not know. He just thought he should save them.
Shaking his head, Moon Slaughter turn around and started to leave.
He hasn't even taken five steps when the woman's voice was heard behind him, ”Wait! Please, wait!”
Stopping, Moon Slaughter looked at the woman confusedly.
The woman looked at Moon Slaughter for some time before she walked towards him with weak steps. Reaching in front of him, she fell to her knees and said, ”Please…please take care of my daughter. I beg you…” Her pleading voice was the only thing that could be heard in the surroundings. He eyes full with her tears as it wet her face.
”…” Moon Slaughter becomes silent. He did not know what to say at this moment as it was the first time for him.
”Please…I don't have much to live…my daughter is still a child…she cannot live without someone's protection. You do not have to take care of her…just until she has grown stronger enough to protect herself…” Ling Xing continues pleading for her daughter whose eyes were swollen due to crying so much.
All she could do right now was hug her mother as tight as she could. Even though she was only 9, her mind was developed enough for her to understand that her mother will die soon.
She felt her heart shattered but still stayed firm. She did not want her mother to worry about her, even in her last breath. She wanted to show her that she has grown and that she does not have to worry about herself.
After a couple of minutes, Moon Slaughter sighed, ”Very Well. I will take care of her.”
Ling Xing's eyes glowed with happiness and gratitude. She looked at her daughter, who had her eyes close and had her teeth tightly clenched as not to let a voice out. Ling Xing could not help but tear up. She knew it would be the last time she would see her daughter. She could feel her consciousness slipping away.
She hugged her daughter tightly before saying in her ears, ”Shang'er. You have to stay strong, okay? Don't let others decide your fate. Become strong enough to path your own destiny rather than let others control it…also forgive mother as she cannot see you growing up…and…becoming a fine woman…I just hope that the choices that you make in your life…will not hunt you back…” The woman spoke. Her voice fading at the end as her body fell down beside her sobbing daughter.
Yun Shang had her fist clenched tightly. She did not let any voice left her mouth, silently watching the dead body of her mother. Tears fell from her eyes, but she did not cry.
Suddenly, she felt a hand on her head and heard the voice of a man, ”If you want to cry, then cry. She is already gone. No need to act tough as it will only get worse if you bottled up your feelings.”
The voice seems to be the last straw holding her before she burst into tears. Her cries could be heard as she loudly wailed beside the body of her now-dead mother.
Moon Slaughter silently watched, 'I have become soft? No, is it because master changed my bloodline and it is less violent now?' he thought.
After what seemed to be an eternity for the girl, Moon Slaughter said, ”Let's go. I will bury her. After that, we will resume our journey.”
Yun Shang nodded weakly and followed after Moon Slaughter, who buried the woman. He was wondering whether he preserved her body and ask his master to revive her. 'What am I thinking? Why would I want this woman to be revived?' Though these questions plunged his mind, Moon Slaughter silently buried the woman.
A couple of minutes later, he said to Yun Shang, ”Let's go…and if you want to revenge your mother, then I will train you. Whether you can become stronger or not, depends on your own efforts.”
Yun Shang's eyes glowed with determination as she yelled, ”Yes, Master!”
Moon Slaughter raised his brow but did not say anything and kept walking before vanishing with the girl. Who knew what the future hold for them.

(A/N: As you guys already know, there is going to be another world arc soon. And yes, it is going to be a DxD arc. I just started re-reading the novel as I have forgotten most of the plot of the anime.
I will try to write an orgy (?) with Wang Lei's current harem before starting the next arc.
Anyways, thank you to everyone that is still reading this FF of mine. I really appreciate you and your support for this book. I might not upload chapters every day for a weak since I have two fuċkɨnġ presentations to do tomorrow – Friday being the deadline! And I am also reading DxD novel.
If you have any suggestion, do not mind writing them down. Don't worry, I read every comment. I may not reply to every comment though. Don't take it to the heart.
Again, Thanks for reading this FF of mine. I honestly never thought I would write this long. As I was thinking of finishing it within 100 chaps. Hahaha!)
