Chapter 114 I Need Your Help on Something. (2/2)
”Are you connected to that mysterious Family by chance?” At this moment, the uncle who's together with Huotian spoke.
Mo Xie looked back as he saw the uncle looking at him, waiting for his response, Mo Xie couldn't help but place caution on his words; ”What's wrong with the Mo Family?”
”Oh, then are you from there?” Seeing Mo Xie's curiosity, the uncle couldn't help but add.
Mo Xie only looked at the uncle not answering his question. The atmosphere between them grew more intense, yet, for others, it looks like a huge elephant is staring down on an ant.
”Uncle, Brother Mo, please stop, we'll explain what we know first and then you can decide what to do next.” Huotian intervened between them, he wouldn't want his new found friend to be actually placed in an awkward position.
”I am from that Family, and I've been on a training for the past 2 years.” Mo Xie immediately spoke, based on the Heavenly Yin and Yang Sutra, he had been gone for more than a year, the best option is to lie about his identity now.
”Then,” Huotian spoke as he looked at Shenyu.
Shenyu noticed his gaze as she nodded and spoke: ”A few months ago, we heard the news of a Family supplying tier 1 and tier 2 soul weapons, it was really not that much of a deal, but...”
Shenyu stopped as she looked at Huotian's uncle.
”You can tell him everything.” (Uncle.)
Shenyu nodded as she continues; ”Uncle Shi arrived in our Kingdom and heard the news, he asked us that, if there is a Blacksmith Saint living inside the Mo Family and was limited by the materials that the Mo Family can provide, it will be great if we can form a tie with them through marriage.”
”Getting to recruit him would benefit us too.”
Hearing this, Mo Xie nodded his head; ”There is one before, but I'm merely an outer disciple and couldn't really know anything related to our Clan.”
Hearing this, Shenyu, Huotian, and his Uncle nodded.
”So there really is one, unfortunately, we were a few steps too late,” Shenyu spoke as she sighed, she's still a little guarded against Mo Xie as he knows something that's extremely taboo inside the Human territory.
”What do you mean a step too late?” Mo Xie asked as he looks at Shenyu.
”That... I was tasked to go to the Zhi Huan Royal Kingdom and to be dressed like my brother four months ago to have a formal talk with the Mo Family, but unfortunately, the Mo Family mysteriously disappeared. Leaving only a massive crater from its original place.”
[The Mo Family... Mysteriously disappeared...] Mo Xie couldn't help but think of these words.
”They were not annihilated but only disappeared right?” Mo Xie asked.
”Yes, currently, there is a warrant for each of the Mo Family member's head issued by a few major groups in that Kingdom,” Shenyu spoke, she wants to get on Mo Xie's good side right now, if he's a friend of Huotian, even her whole Kingdom together wouldn't be able to kill him silently without any trace, it will also damage her relationship with Huotian later.
Mo Xie immediately received some hits from Shenyu, he already knows what it meant, she wants to clear the slate clean dissolving their previous grief, he then nodded and asked: ”Which groups had issued those warrants?”
Shenyu nodded; ”First of all is the Xiao Clan issuing a massive reward for each head with their position, the next is the Supreme Sword Sect issuing rewards of friendship and tier 1 soul weapons for each head, and the next one is the Northern Star Sect, they want to capture anyone involved with the Mo Family in exchange for great rewards.”
Hearing this, Mo Xie couldn't help but utter; ”Xiao Clan and Supreme Sword Sect... But why does the Northern Star Sect wants to join in?”
Shenyu sighed and spoke: ”They want to capture all of the Mo Family's people in order to get one person, and they said that, that person is the Patriarch's genius daughter, Mo Aiqing.”
Mo Xie couldn't help but clench his fist; [I... I will kill them all...]
He wants to kill all those in pursuit, but how would he do it with his current strength? He couldn't yet, but there is one thing he can do.
”I would like to say something first.” Mo Xie paused as he looked at Huotian; ”I need your help in something.”
