Chapter 55 Forgiveness (1/2)
”Patriarch!”
Wuhan greeted outside the door with the other four elders behind him.
”Come in and bring all of the materials inside.” Mo Xie spoke, he's a little bit irritated.
He had lived his previous life peacefully for billions of years after he ascended to the 'peak', the path he carved to reach that place is full of blood from the dead bodies of his enemies.
Mo Xie only yearned for a peaceful life, at least, that's what he thinks will happen. Live his life with the new family he made, creating geniuses after geniuses coming from his Clan, having a family of his own, some running children in the house, their elder brothers and sisters cultivating, his wife sitting with him leisurely enjoying the warm breeze of the afternoon and cold wind of the night.
Having a few thousands of children living peacefully for millions of years, a dream that shattered immediately.
Mo Xie's instincts started to slowly work again, his carefree and peaceful personality is starting to change too.
Wuhan and the others entered the mansion with a few disciples following them, carrying enormous piles of ores behind him.
About 100 disciples had helped just to bring all the materials inside. The disciples placed all of the materials in order as they looked at the Elders.
Wuhan looked at Mo Xie and was about to ask something, but he slightly trembled, the usually composed and warm Patriarch of theirs is actually emitting a cold and piercing aura.
”All of you may return back and start cultivating,” Wuhan ordered the disciples. He started to worry too, his instinct is telling him that something that can make the usual kind Patriarch go cold is something dangerous.
”Yes.” The disciples nodded as they made their way out.
As soon as the disciple had left, Wuhan looked at Mo Xie and spoke: ”Patriarch, what's the problem?”
Mo Xie's eyes contracted as his sinister eyes looked at Wuhan and the other four, his eyes which slowly moves alternately between the five of them felt extremely cold!
Wuhan, Jiahao, Yijun, Zedong, and Lingxin felt fear each time Mo Xie's eyes descended to them; 'Was this still the same patriarch from before?'
This question remained within them, Mo Xie is actually releasing killing intent, making the five elders stunned. The five of them are Earth Ranked practitioner
Luckily, Mo Xie still controlled his temper, after all, he doesn't want the same thing happening again; 'I've assigned them their position, not for decoration, yet, they didn't do their work properly and we've actually been surrounded by enemies from all sides...'
Mo Xie's thought kept changing; 'No... They are inexperienced, they have not yet entered a blood path unless someone teaches them the basics, they will never improve... A life and death trial to all of them once this business is concluded. I shouldn't blame the juniors for the incapabilities of I, Mo Xie myself.'
He needs to train everyone, he needs to make sure that everyone under him is extraordinary since the people with powers around him is turning him into that of an enemy, he will pay this enmity with 'grace'.
Mo Xie's killing intent vanished, he retracted it completely and spoke: ”That is killing intent, it is built purely from the number of people you had killed, the life and death situations that a person had faced, a situation that you may die every single second.”
Mo Xie explained, Instead of killing them, he'd rather not go back to the things he did from his previous life, killing his subordinates after they committed the slightest errors.
Wuhan and the other four breath a sigh of relief, but they have a new question now; 'How many people had the patriarch actually kill to possess such frightening killing intent?'
This thought sent shivers to their spine; 'Hundreds? Thousands? Mi... Millions?'
Then, another thought; 'Why had the patriarch showed them that?'
The five of them nodded: ”We understand, Patriarch.”
Mo Xie nodded, he then continued: ”Do you know why I ordered for the five of you to purchase these materials?”
”Patriarch, please enlighten us.” The five replied simultaneously.
