Chapter 202: Tian Ji Sect’s Teaching (2/2)

Half a month later, Mo Wuji arrived at a new city, Luo An. He had inquired about Zhen Shaoke in the Heaven Seeking City to no avail. Thus, he would first settle the Mo Clan’s debts.

Luo An was the capital of the Northern Qin Prefecture. Even though Mo Wuji was the young prefecture lord of the Northern Qin Prefecture, this was his first time visiting this place.

”Show your identity token.” Just as Mo Wuji walked to the entrance of Luo An’s city gates, he was stopped by two soldiers.

Mo Wuji patted the bag on his back and clasped his fists, ”I’m from Luo An’s Mo Clan. Because of my many years abroad, I only just returned to Luo An, and I don’t have any sort of identity token.”

Mo Xiangtong had told Mo Wuji, the Luo An Mo Clan had been exterminated by the Ju Clan. However, before Mo Wuji acted, he wanted to verify whether the Ju Clan had completely destroyed the Mo Clan. The simplest way to do so, was to report his Mo Clan’s name.

When the two soldiers heard that Mo Wuji was from the Mo Clan who had not returned for many years, they immediately gave each other knowing glances. Mo Wuji could see the pity in these soldiers eyes. This pity wasn’t only in the soldiers’ eyes but in many of the people in the surrounding. There were even some looks of impatience in some of their eyes, seemingly wanting to tell Mo Wuji the bad news. However, no one came forward to tell him that he couldn’t enter Luo An.

”Since that’s the case, you can enter,” One of the soldiers said while nodding towards Mo WUji.

After entering Luo An, his spiritual will detected someone running urgently into the city behind those two soldiers.

”May I ask, what’s the address of the Luo An Mo Clan?” Mo Wuji turned to see a woman with a scarf on her head walking to him so he asked hurriedly. He wanted to see the ruins of the Mo Clan.

What Mo Wuji never expected was that the woman immediately grabbed his hand, ”Don’t talk, follow closely behind me.”

Sensing that the other party did not have any evil intentions, Mo Wuji followed her to leave the main streets, and with a series of turns, they entered a small alley.

”This big sister, why did you pull me here?” Seeing that there was no one in the surroundings, Mo Wuji shook off the woman’s hand.

”What branch of the Mo Clan are you?” The woman did not mind Mo Wuji’s actions but asked anxiously.

”My grandfather is Mo Tiancheng, my father is Mo Guangyuan, I’m Mo Xinghe.” Mo Wuji answered.

”You’re the young prefecture lord…” The woman was momentarily shocked still before shouting in an emotional shriek. However, she only said a few words before urgently covering her own mouth. This caused her voice to sound a little weird.

Thereafter, she pulled Mo Wuji to enter one of the houses by the side. After the two entered, the doors were closed, causing the insides to look a little dark.

Mo Wuji scanned the room with his spiritual will, he saw a man hiding behind a screen, staring at him. Behind that man, was the entrance of a hole dug into the ground. If anything were to happen, that man would immediately rush into that hole.

With a ”Click”, the woman turned on the lights, and she called out, ”Brother Qi, quickly come out. The young prefecture lord has returned.”

The man behind the screen seemed to leap out, landing in front of Mo Wuji and that woman, with his voice trembling as he said, ”What? You said young prefecture lord?”

At the same time, his gaze landed on Mo Wuji as he sized Mo Wuji up.

The woman nodded, ”Yes, it’s him. Our Mo Clan’s last Northern Qin Prefecture Lord, Lord Tiancheng’s grandson, Mo Xinghe.”

”You’re Lord Tiancheng’s descendant?” Not only was the man’s voice trembling, it was incredibly emotional.

Mo Wuji clasped his fists, ”That’s right, I’m Mo Xinghe. Now, I’ve changed my name to Mo Wuji, I’m the heir to the Northern Qin throne.”

”Just now, he reported himself as a Mo Clan member, so I hurriedly pulled him back…” The woman explained by the side.

”What?” The man’s face instantly turned pale white and his entire body started trembling.

Mo Wuji knew that this wasn’t the previous tremble of excitement and emotion, but one of fear and terror.

After some time, the man calmed himself down, and exhaled deeply, ”Since the heavens wish for my Mo Clan to be destroyed, then so be it.”

With that, the man turned back and called out, ”Mo Qian, Mo Li, Mo Jian… Hurry on out. Our last and final opportunity is here.”

Hearing the man’s words, the woman who pulled Mo Wuji came to a sudden realisation. The entire Luo An was the Ju Clan’s. If she didn’t expose anything, the Ju Clan might not discover this place. But now, she had exposed things, the Ju Clan could find this place at any moment.
