Mo Xie thought for a while; 'What kind of trick do they have under their sleeves?'
Today is a good day to die? Hearing this, all of those in the crowd felt shaken, but after a while, resolve took over, some still felt hesitant as they slowly back away.
Meanwhile, the fathers, elder brothers, and many men, even women started picking up rocks, looking at the enemy in front of them.
"Father, I'm scared..." A young lady spoke holding her father's arms.
The father looked back, he saw his precious daughter and smiled: "Daughter, are you not tired of continuously working hard just to live for another day? Sc.r.a.pping those rich folk's food so we could have a sumptuous meal?"
The lady looked at her father worriedly and shook; "Father, as long as we are together, I know mother will be happy for us, my two little brothers will help you too!"
The father smiled gently: "Don't worry daughter, I will fight the heavens, the Sect leader will lead us to a glorious future, this I definitely believe, and if I die, they will definitely take care of you."
"Father..." The daughter worriedly spoke, but never continued anymore.
The worried families continued, still, they held resolute in front of such a major crisis.
Meanwhile, Mo Xie had been continuously scanning the enemies in front of him. Then, when the enemies in front of him had neared a hundred meters in distance, Mo Xie's eyes widened in shock.
"A demonic technique? Ha... Hahahaha." Mo Xie laughs, seeing that the feeling he had was actually something this simple.
Mo Xie's laugh sounded, Si Baili and his group became bewildered while the Dark Guild members are frowning, a laugh like this is definitely a provocation, yet, they didn't move an inch.
Mo Xie looked at them: "So it is a power-up type of technique, here I am wondering how you guys had such cultivations, but it seems to me that only a single one of you is a true Immortal Foundation rank, the rest? All of you became a p.a.w.n of the Dark Guild in order to show off?"
Finally, the members of the Dark Guild's expression turned grim, this is a special technique that enables their cultivation to soar.
Still, Lord Dark Crow chuckles: "It is enough to destroy you and the others."
Mo Xie chuckles: "Soul Foundation Demorilizer? Enough to destroy everyone?"
When Lord Dark Crow heard this, his expression changes, even those around him did, it is one thing to know something is amiss and another thing for one person to know it clearly.
"It seems to me... This demonic technique of yours is one of your Dark Guild's specialty?" Mo Xie asked as he looks at Lord Dark Crow.
The latter frowns, yet, when he's about to open his mouth, Mo Xie intervened; "I think... that if those that followed you knew of its side-effects, they would definitely not had accepted such a boost."
As Mo Xie paused, he looks at the experts surrounding Lord Dark Crow and saw their expression turned grim, in their head, the word 'Side-effect' made them feel an extremely bad omen.
Lord Dark Crow frowns; "Do not listen to him, you all know that there's no such thing as a side-effect!"
"Oh?!" Mo Xie immediately replies: "Then I bet... that your Dark Guild wrote those that had used it as they died in a glorious battle, or, they had been ambushed? Maybe even killed as they hunt Demonic Beasts? Why not all of it?"
Hearing Mo Xie's words, those from the Dark Guild felt shaken.
Lord Dark Crow was about to say something but Mo Xie didn't give him any chance: "If your Lord Dark Crow accept that technique, he'll definitely be able to reach a higher rank, and at maximum, he'll definitely possess the strength of an Immortal Ascension cultivator, wouldn't that a dream for any cultivator? So why didn't he?"
These simple questions draw a huge line between these cultivators, all those that trusted Lord Dark Crow started to back off.
Lord Dark Crow frowns, he had no more thing to say as Mo Xie has already spoken of everything, but there's one more thing he could do: "Have you forgotten, all of your lives are already given to the Dark Guild? You will do anything that needs to be done, and I, for one, as an Elder of the Dark Guild hold your lives!"
Mo Xie shook his head: "They will be fine though, as long as they do not burn the Spiritual Energy within their body, they will forever be a cultivator of such rank, but the more they use their skill, the more their cultivation will drop, falling... falling... and falling until they become ordinary mortals, and that's only one of the side effects, the second is... You`ll never, in your whole life, will be able to cultivate."
These words caused the Dark Guild members to be afraid, they should've thought about it before, gaining a huge leap in cultivation without any price to pay is a thing that's never heard of. But they joined the Dark Guild because of this reason, and they thought that Dark Crow, the Dark Guild's elder had already taken it and had no more chances to do so again.
Every member that wishes to receive such boost is welcomed, and those that don't need it are also accepted, these events happen whenever they receive a mission. These people that didn't accept it was treated better too, why?! Now, they felt like they themselves knew of the answer.
"Something like that... well, it might be incurable to others, but you are talking to a Medical Saint's apprentice, I also have my master's backing, maybe there might be some chance, no?" Mo Xie a.s.saulted them words by words, and these last sentences made the final catch.
All of them was about to speak but Lord Dark Crow spoke: "Everyone that wishes to betray the Dark Guild, will die immediately!"
Mo Xie already won the compet.i.tion of words, with no more chance of winning, Lord Dark Crow took out 31 keys, holding it on his palm as he looks at all of them: "Anyone that wishes to die, immediately go down!"
Hearing Lord Dark Crow, his subordinates immediately backs off and reforms their stance as a Dark Guild's members.
Mo Xie looked at Dark Crow and spoke: "There's no side of this fight that you can win, I a.s.sure you that."
Hearing Mo Xie's words, Lord Dark Crow's anger surged, but immediately, his expression returns to calmness: "Hahaha, I didn't miscalculate."
"Hmm?" Mo Xie looked at Lord Dark Crow; 'So the trump card is going to be revealed...'
Lord Dark Crow chuckles: "I already had expected this outcome, we direly need your cooperation in making a medicine, hence, we took drastic measures to ensure your recruitment."
"You mean?" Mo Xie asks.
"Hahaha, well, simply put, we were only half sure about it at first, but who knew that you will even send your daughter to accompany our target?" Lord Dark Crow laughs sinisterly, looking at Mo Xie with a gaze filled with victorious emotion.
Mo Xie then remembered something, Si Shenyu's dark eerie aura wrapping around her... Now it's clear, the Dark Guild targetted Si Shenyu and Huotian as a hostage in order to make Mo Xie succ.u.mb.
But their target suddenly changes when Aiqing joins.
"My daughter? She won't be caught with a number like yours."
"A number like this? We are merely a messenger, we've sent fifteen experts of Immortal Foundation rank to capture your daughter and friends, there are even a hundred heavenly encompa.s.sing experts with them too, so tell me, how should you like to come with us? Later? Or will you follow us now?" Lord Dark Crow's expression is full of joy, he clearly knows that they already won this.
Shang Ting looked at Mo Xie worriedly, their daughter getting kidnapped is something out of expectation.
Mo Xie looked at Lord Dark Crow, deep in thought, he could only utter: "Aiqing..."
