_Swis.h.!.+_ A fast and swift slash was seen as Mo Xie's hand slashed from above.

"GHAAAAAAAA!!!"

A Scream that expresses agony and pain echoed in the surrounding.

Everyone became speechless; 'What happened?'

All of the Lu and Meng Clan's men were speechless as they continued looking at Mo Xie is fear. They even forgot to move in order to save their 'Friend'.

Meng Zuo's eyes opened widely as he tried to crawl as far away as he could, but who can? when a whole limb had been cut away clean. His whole arm, from his shoulder to hand had been removed.

But Mo Xie's steps didn't stop there, slowly following Meng Zuo as he crawls back to his clan's men. In the same time, his so-called 'Friends' and Brother-in-law are stepping back, trying to create a distance between them and Mo Xie.

"HE... Help!... Help!" Meng Zuo's cries for help made people shudder. His eyes full of tears as his mouth continuously vomits blood.

Wasn't this person a black gold ranked cultivator? what happened?

Mo Xie's face has no emotion in it, but everyone that glance at it can clearly feel the coldness within.

Mo Xie, he had never treasured anyone, nor had he made friends in his previous life, for the first time, he wants to take things slowly, gather people to join him to a long life. For the first time, he wants to be together with these people, yet, trouble kept bearing its fangs at him.

His mouth slowly opened as he spoke: "Had I offended you all in anyway?

Have I started anything?

Where have I gone wrong?

Is it a mistake for me to become kind?"

Mo Xie's words sound solemn, but the way his face look sent s.h.i.+vers to anyone that heard of it.

"Do I have to kill anyone that offends me?

A path of slaughter?

Those that do not bow to me, shall I kill them again?"

Mo Xie's tone kept getting colder and colder, his gaze looking at Lu s.h.i.+ moved and descended to Meng Zuo; "We are not finished."

Hearing Mo Xie's words and approaching footsteps, Meng Zuo couldn't help but shudder, he looked back immediately and saw Mo Xie sitting close to him.

"Which eyes..."

Meng Zuo hearing this remembered his words earlier; 'It is that finger that point at my beloved Daughter, right?' and now, it is 'Which eyes?'

"Which eyes was it again? who owned those eyes that looked at my wife maliciously." Mo Xie's words resounded.

Lu s.h.i.+ is now wetting his own pants, Lu Bong and the rest were trembling in fear; 'What kind of man did my son provoke?!'. Even Shang Ting was shocked by how the events unfolded.

"H... Hus... Husba..." Shang Ting tried and tried, but whatever courage she gathered, it immediately breaks as soon as she saw Mo Xie's cold yet calm face. Fear, fear is growing inside her heart.

"GYAAAA!! MY EYES!" Meng Zuo's scream woke her daze, as she saw Meng Zuo holding his way with the only arm he had left.

Shang Ting slumped to the ground seeing such a scene in front of her.

Everyone trembled, the Lu and Meng Clan wants to escape, but Mo Xie's killing intent is holding them back, not making them get out of his sight even for a second.

"Which life..."

When these two words were heard, the world seemed to have turned into a monochrome for the Lu and Meng Clansmen, all colorful tincture in the environment vanished and was replaced by darkness.

Meng Zuo felt despair, even forgetting the pain the pain he had been feeling.

"PLEASE! I BEG YOU! PLEASE SPARE MY LIFE!" Meng Zuo screamed to the top of his lungs as he kneeled, kowtowing to Mo Xie repeatedly.

_Swish~_ Hearing the blade cutting the wind, he couldn't help but feel his chest tightened, his breathing erratic, his heart beats so fast that everything seemed to have slowed down.

Meanwhile, the only one that didn't feel fear is Aiqing, her father is doing it for her and her mother, why does she need to fear her own father for defending her? But seeing Shang Ting slumping to the grand and struggle to get up and voice her own words.

Aiqing helped Shang Ting to stand up, but as soon as Shang Ting gained her balance, the little girl pushed her mother towards Mo Xie.

Mo Xie's sword was about to descend to Meng Zuo's neck with the intent to chop it off, but then.

_Tug~_ Shang Ting managed to make it in time as her weak legs gave up and her hands wrapped around Mo Xie's body.

_Sniff Sniff_

The suppressing aura immediately vanished as soon as Shang Ting managed to hug Mo Xie from behind.

The light in Mo Xie's eyes returned slowly as he wiped the wet liquid on his face and looked at Shang Ting: "What are you crying for? Everything is fine, nothing will happen to you so long as you are with me."

Shang Ting looked at Mo Xie, the previous expression that he always wore is there; "I... I felt that you are going somewhere... somewhere I would never ever be able to follow you."

Shang Ting's words caused Mo Xie to have a smile blood in his face: "Silly, I will not go to a place like that, go with Qing'er first, I`ll settle everything here."

"Please... Please don't kill them." Shang Ting pleaded, Although she's mystefied at how can Mo Xie wield the power to trample on a black gold ranked cultivator, that will be for the next time.

Mo Xie nodded as he patted Shang Ting's head; "Don't worry, I won't ever do something like that if you so wish it to be, go to our Daughter first."

Shang Ting nodded as she went to Aiqing: "I`m sorry for leaving you here."

Aiqing smiled as she replied: "See Mommy?! You have a place in Father's heart! What are you so afraid of!?"

Hearing little Qing's words, Shang Ting felt warm in her heart, although it is weird to have something like this in a situation with blood, she still felt satisfied.

Mo Xie then looked at Lu Bong and the Meng Clan's men; "Go and take this fellow, be sure not to let him act rashly again."

Both the Lu and Meng immediately picked up Meng Zuo as they parted, Lu Bong then helped a.s.sisting Lu s.h.i.+ to stand, then they heard Mo Xie's words again.

"Next time you cause me trouble, be sure to remember the events that unfolded this day." Mo Xie gave a warning, and that is a once in a lifetime chance for those that had offended him.

Lu s.h.i.+'s legs gave up again, Lu Bong picked him up, without replying, all of them immediately dashed off.

Mo Xie sighed, he looked at his clothes and spoke to Shang Ting: "Is it possible for me to take a bath inside the Seven Celestial Taste Pavilion?"

Shang Ting nodded and replied: "Yes, there is a courtyard that they can especially prepare, as a private house inside the Pavilion."

Mo Xie nodded as he went inside with the two, but Shang Ting doesn't feel like eating right now, more like, she wants to vomit. Meanwhile, Aiqing is excitedly skipping, she couldn't wait for more until the food arrives later.
