Chapter 294: Determination! (2/2)
The two children looked at each other Then, they nodded heavily in unison
The child on the left slowly extended the finger of his re hand to his mouth He then bit-down on it resolutely The kid bit with considerable effort, and tilted his head to the side until he had torn-off a chunk of his own flesh A river of blood rushed-out froer His entire body shi+vered with pain, and his face had gone deathly However, he was otherwise motionless The child then started to write a character on the ground with the flow of his own blood He had only written about half of it when the blood-floed down The boy looked at it in an unsatisfied ain He desperately and ferociously bit-down on it again as he tore-out soer’s bone was also pulled out The white mix of flesh and bone fell-down A fountain of blood shot-out The fountain of blood gushed-out far, and some of it was even spilt on Jun Mo Xie’s face
The other child er as well The two children’s bodies shi+vered, yet they ushed-out The children then drew big and straight characters on the ground
The child on the left wrote, “I will kill therets till I die”
The child on the right wrote, “Those who aren’t powerful — can only die; nothing more”
Their words contained power The two of the with pain; but, they wrote each character meticulously, and with a lot of effort
The two children kneeled facing Jun Mo Xie after they had finished writing, and knocked their heads heavily on the ground
Jun Mo Xie’s eyes suddenly turned red He felt a strange feeling in his heart; his heart had started to tremble ferociously
Jun Mo Xie had conducted himself with cold-blooded apathy in both his lives He had never been benevolent, and looked at all living things as ‘ht nothing of the common people He hadn’t felt the least bit disturbed when he had witnessed the horrors of the Huang Hua Hall that day He wasn’t shaken at all However, the stubborn acts of these two youngsters had moved him very deeply
“Good! If this is how you feel — I will not be miserly to present you the opportunity!” Jun Mo Xie took a long breath The color of his eyes beca voice, “The opportunity I shall provide rant you the power to rule over the heaven and earth someday However, it is i and death! I hope that you… will not disappoint me”
The two children looked up in unison They couldn’t speak, but their eyes were full of ecstasy Then, that ecstasy was suddenly replaced by unwavering determination It seemed that they had made the decision from the bottom of their souls They looked at Jun Mo Xie and knocked their heads on the ground One of the heads got injured, and blood started to stream out from it
Jun Mo Xie quickly took the children into his arh the entrance These two had suffered a lot of pain to demonstrate their determination They hadn’t made any noise to reveal their pain, but they’d be in a lot of trouble if they weren’t administered a ti problem
Jun Mo Xie had already decided to help theain
They possessed such great will-power They may not have much aptitude, but wouldn’t their immense will-power make up for it? The number of people who possessed the necessary aptitude were the same as the number of sand perches on this land But, howwill-power?
What would natural talent achieve if one didn’t have the desire…?
When a person could be so fierce in dealing with themselves — hoould they deal with their enemy?
Two phrases had been smeared in blood at the entrance of the courtyard The words within these phrases dazzled brightly
“I will kill therets till I die”
“Those who aren’t powerful — can only die; nothing more”
The curtain of darkness hooded the sky
Jun Mo Xie frowned and pondered deeply as he looked at the two thin and weak figures that lay on his bed
His residence was full of wounded people There was a think scent of medicine in the air
Ye Gu Han lay tranquilly on the giant bed on the side His breathing was faint, but he was free froer
Jun Mo Xie had tidied-up another bed on the side It had been taken-over by those two children at that moment
Three wounded people; three crippled individuals
Those two youngsters had stretched their vitalities to the liht after Jun Mo Xie had promised to help them However, they had fainted noiselessly They hadn’t even issued a groan
Jun Mo Xie had seen many fierce people However, this was the first he had seen so base in terms of ferocity, and none with relation to martial arts
[Will these little devils turn out fiercer than me?]
[Since I’ve promised to help them… how can I train-up these talentless individuals in the shortest aard
[With Xuan Qi? No, thisHua Hall wouldn’t have stuffed theiant jars if they had any aptitude for Xuan Qi practice]
[That’s it for that angle!]
Jun Mo Xie suddenly stood-up There was an olint in his eyes [At worst, I can teach them my previous life’s Core Law! I’ll train them in accordance to the standards I practiced in those days And as for how much they can advance… it will depend on their luck! And I should be able to refine a ‘cleaning essence’ Dan if I’ the Heaven’s Fortune…]
[I’ll personally train these two into so which would shock the entire Xuan Xuan Continent! They would eventually be capable of killing the Gods of this continent! With their willpower,demons would rise like the stars!]
Jun Mo Xie left the rooht sky His train of thought was long, and a lot of time had passed by the tisters had evoked his own past in his mind
[Wasn’t I the same as those two in my previous life? I used to play withHow many times did I pass out from the shock of pain? How many times did I push myself to the point of death?]
In ay had Jun Xie’s unrivalled reputation come about? Who kne much effort, sweat and tears of blood had been invested into his reputation…? His fellow apprentices were trying their hardest, but his training had exceeded their difficulty by three times
Any man who desired success and unrivalled fa the ene fierce with oneself was important A true assassin would never care about his life or his accos harm The worry of one’s mind would act as an obstacle
These… were the words of his previous life’s e of a face floated in front of Jun Mo Xie It was a face which was black as iron, and cold as ice Murderous aura emanated from its eyes However, he felt relieved whenever those two eyes would look at him However, Jun Mo Xie could feel the presence of those eyes even though he tried to dodge theness It was as if they had passed through the torlds, and were gazing at him from the distance
He shi+vered in their cold — just as in the past — but it felt auspicious and peaceful
“Master…” Jun Mo Xie had lower his head, and covered his knees with his hands in sadness A door opened, and a ray of light escaped from that crack It painted Jun Mo Xie’s silhouette His silhouette curled-up as it shi+vered in the night wind It was so for?
He heard light footsteps behind him, and then felt a warm overcoat cover his body
Jun Mo Xie remained as motionless as before, and asked, “Tell me Little Ke… do you wish to becoirl cried in alarm This was clearly unexpected, “Become powerful? What use will that be?”
“What use will that be? That’s an interesting question If you become someone like the old Solitary Falcon — you can kill whomever you want to kill You can live in this world free and unfettered; don’t you wish such a life?” Jun Mo Xie asked heavily
The little girl walked to his side, and calmly sat down beside him She then tilted her head, and placed her hands on her cheeks to support it The girl then looked up at the ht sprinkled on her face; it brought out a soentle flavor to her face
A little tiirl smiled shyly and said, “Powerful… I don’t want to become that kind of a person”
“Oh? Why?” Jun Mo Xie tilted his head and looked at the little girl Little Ke’s words ca to Hit-man Jun’s view of the world — any person would answer in the affirmative if they were provided an opportunity to become a powerful individual It didn’t matter what they did afterwards to achieve it
Little Ke lowered her head shyly, and started to gently nip at her nails, “Young Master, I don’t knohat it would feel like to be a strong person But, I don’t think… perhaps I’ll enjoy the attention and the praise But, I don’t knohy… but I don’t want it I’irl All I want… is to take care of the Young Master every day I look forward to washi+ng Young Master’s clothes,Master, and wait for hione out I just want to be an ordinary ain, and spoke, “Young Master, do these words mean that I don’t have any spirit? But… I really don’t want to beco!”
“No, what you said… I really like it You’re an adorable little girl who I’irl who sat beside hiht shone on her skin Her white-blond hair was tied in a bun, and the loose silky strands danced in the wind Her long eyelashes blinked, and there was a tuft of hair sticking to the skin beside her ear
The little girl felt a bit uneasy since she was being seized-up by Jun Mo Xie She twisted her fingers, but pretended to not notice However, her heart was ju madly inside her chest Her face slowly turned red as she lowered her head; she felt like a deer inside her heart
Jun Mo Xie’s face reveled in an interesting smile as he felt hissuch a pleasant little girl beside him He unexpectedly felt a faint yet heartfelt happiness
Everyone had their oay of ‘living’ This was the least one could do without a probleirl; her dream was very simple, practical and very warm…
He caressed her beautiful hair softly and said, “You hurry-up to your rooo to sleep” Jun Mo Xie was astonished to find that his voice had been very… gentle He felt like he was facing the daughter of his previous life’s irl answered as she lowered her head She stood up slowly She could feel her cheeks getting warth as she sloalked to her rooht of so Master… you’ll go to sleep early… huh?” She found that the Young o, had disappeared without a trace by the time she had turned her head
“He’s very quick…” The little girl bit her lip and sain She then pursed her mouth and raised her head as she re Thisnonsense…]
Jun Mo Xie welcoht wind He didn’t even leave a shadow as he flew fast He could feel the Art of Unlocking the Heaven’s Fortune revolving inside of hith in hih his meridians He felt extreet was the Magnificent Jewel Hall
Jun Mo Xie painstakingly restrained his own aura He floated silently for a while, and then sub Master Jun then used his spirit sense to search each and every inch of the land ahead as it slowly spread out
Jun Mo Xie hadn’t forgotten how he had nearly been discovered by Lei Wu Bei the last time He knew that there were at least three Spirit Xuan experts inside the Magnificent Jewel Hall So how could he act carelessly?
Being cautious and prudent was a top ‘character requirement’ for an assassin
However, the result of his spirit sense’s probe greatly alarnificent Jewel hall have so th!
Jun Mo Xie had searched every corner of the Magnificent Jewel Hall There were several powerful people in the Magnificent Jewel Hall Some of them were clearly at the Spirit Xuan Realm, while the others were at least at the peak of the Sky Xuan He could sense seven powerful Individuals! There were teaker people as well They
[When did so many powerful experts fall from the sky?]
[Are they possibly the re-enforcements from the Silver Blizzard City?]
And Jun Mo Xie’s spirit sense detected a very formidable presence in the center [It st the as Solitary Falcon… but wasn’t very weak in co as the Great Master!
One, two, three… four… five… and another one! There were six other Spirit Xuan experts present there! Jun Mo Xie felt hi drenched in sweat
