Vol.3-Chapter 30 – Farewell

Seeing Leng Feng’s group of three leave, Zhao Jiuge looked back at the mess before the Mo mansion.

There were numerous craters on the bluestone brick ground, connected by countless cracks.

Without Xiao Yun and the backing of the Flowing Cloud Sect, those rogue cultivators that joined the Xiao family immediately dispersed into the crowd. This was their way of showing they were cutting their relationship with the Xiao family.

As for the soldiers for the Xiao family, they were in an even more awkward situation. They wanted to hide in the crowd, but because of their blood-colored armor, they couldn’t.

“Uncle Mo, I’ll leave the rest of this matter to you. You can deal with it however you like. After all, it\'s time you deal with the grievances with the Xiao family.”

Looking at the defeated Xiao family, Zhao Jiuge felt a bit tasteless. He had come here to help the Mo family resolve this issue. However, after defeating three Spirit Core Realm cultivators and repelling the Flowing Cloud Sect, he felt like the Xiao family was no longer a threat. Mo Longjie was more than enough to deal with them.

Xiao Yi’s eyes were in a trance and his gaze locked on to Mo Longjie. His eyes contained a complicated emotion. Fate changed quickly. His Xiao family had only been in glory for three years but had fallen to the point of extinction. His eldest son was dead and Xiao Zhan was seriously injured. Even his and his youngest son’s lives were in the hands of others.

.

Mo Longjie nodded after hearing Zhao Jiuge’s words. He was excited. He had been battling against the Xiao family for decades, and each side had won and lost. It was only in recent years that the situation had turned to one side.

Some hatred had been buried deep within Mo Longjie’s heart. His wife’s death, Old Mo’s death, and the deaths of all those that fought for the Mo family. Today, he was finally able to get revenge with Zhao Jiuge’s help.

Mo Longjie took a deep breath and slowly walked toward Xiao Yi, who was hugging Xiao Yun’s body.

Xiao Yi had seen through everything. His face was calm and he had accepted this moment. Xiao Yu was frightened and trembling. He knew what awaited him and his father.

“Hehe, Xiao Yi, after so many years, the day I’ve been waiting for has finally arrived.” Mo Longjie’s eyes turned red and tears gathered in them.

Zhao Jiuge and Pei Su Su silently watched from the side. They had done what they needed to do; what was left was between Mo Longjie and Xiao Yi.

The surrounding crowd looked at this scene with complicated expressions. The long-standing Xiao family was about to be destroyed today. They couldn’t help but feel a bit emotional. In the end, strength was everything.

“Mo Longjie, don\'t be too proud. I accept everything that happened today. Since ancient times, the winner decides the fate of the loser. I have nothing to say, it\'s all fate.”

Xiao Yi had returned to his usual nature and was very calm. He stood up, holding Xiao Yun’s body, and stood beside his youngest son.

“I’m afraid.”

Facing Mo Lingjie, who was filled with killing intent, Xiao Yu’s face was pale and his voice trembled. His body trembled and one of his hands clung to Xiao Yi’s sleeve.

Although Xiao Yi had the aura of a leader, he was still a father. Xiao Yi revealed a tender expression and gently said to his youngest son, “Yu Er, don’t be afraid. Your father will take you to find your mother and big brother.”

As soon as he spoke, the expressions of everyone nearby changed.

Only Mo Longjie felt disdain toward this and lacked sympathy. If Zhao Jiuge and Pei Su Su hadn’t appeared then today, it would’ve been him and his children in this position instead.

After soothing his youngest son, Xiao Yi turned to look at Mo Longjie. He had a smile that revealed an unspeakable style and calmly said, “Mo Longjie, considering that we have been fighting each other for almost 30 years, please give Yu Er and I quick deaths.”

After he finished speaking, Xiao Yi grabbed his eldest son’s body in one arm and held Xiao Yu’s hand in the other. He stood tall against the wind.

“Fine, I’ll give you and your son quick deaths. If today’s situation was the other way around, I doubt you would be this agreeable.” Mo Longjie slowly nodded and looked for any change in Xiao Yi’s expression.

“There is no need to say more, give us quick deaths. However, I’ll leave you these final words. My fate today is your future tomorrow. There are always stronger people out there. One day, someone will replace your Mo family.”

After he finished speaking, Xiao Yi closed his eyes. He would rather die than live right now. His ?daughter-in-law had died many years ago, and now his eldest son was dead. The Xiao family had almost completely fallen; he had no will to struggle anymore.

A ray of green light flashed and blood erupted from Xiao Yi and Xiao Yu. Neither of them resisted, so they were instantly killed by Mo Longjie. Both their auras disappeared completely.

The battle was over. The Mo family would be the only one that remained in Dong Yang City. Not only would the Mo family return to its former glory, they would shine even brighter.

Just when everyone was ready to leave because the show was over, a voice suddenly called out and caused everyone to stop for a moment.

“After this, anyone who dares to have any ideas about the Mo family should think about their own worth. If you’re not afraid of my revenge, then you can try it!” Zhao Jiuge said with a cold expression. He had no choice—he had to leave and train across the 13 provinces. He couldn’t stay in Dong Yang City protecting the Mo family for a lifetime.

Hearing this, the rogue cultivators and small forces were all shocked. They all knew that this young man was someone even Leng Feng was wary of. This was not someone they could provoke, so they naturally wouldn’t dare to have any ideas about the Mo family.

……

That night, in the Mo family’s great hall.

The candle light was erratic and shined on everyone’s faces. Everyone was fathers here in this small hall.

“Jiuge, I really have to thank you. If not for you, I fear it would have been difficult for me to escape alive, much less my children.”

Mo Longjie looked at Zhao Jiuge with eyes filled with gratitude. Sometimes, things developed differently from what he expected. Now that he didn’t have to worry about his life and had dealt with his mortal enemy, he felt very comfortable. All of this was because of Zhao Jiuge and Su Su. He was especially shocked by Su Su. He didn’t think such a beautiful young woman would be at the Nascent Soul Realm.

“What are you talking about Uncle Mo? If not for you back then, I would have died and I would not be here today. It’s natural to repay you for saving my life.”

Zhao Jiuge revealed a faint smile and shook his head. He seemed to remember something and continued.

“That’s right, Uncle Mo, I have something for you. Only use this at the most critical moment to protect your family. It can only be used once and should not be used unless it\'s the last resort. Once this sword imprint has been activated with spirit force, it can wipe out the entire Flowing Cloud Sect.”

After he finished speaking, Zhao Jiuge took out a small, crystal-clear, silver sword. It was only the size of his thumb. This was one of the three sword imprints Waning Moon had given him.

Although Zhao Jiuge was a bit reluctant because he only had three, the Mo family had saved his life. He had to leave, and it was almost inevitable that the Mo family would face some kind of danger in the future.

Hearing Zhao Jiuge’s words, Mo Longjie couldn’t help but be shocked, and his hands trembled while accepting this humble-looking thing. There were some things that didn\'t need to be said, he just had to remember it. Just like how Zhao Jiuge had many things he didn’t say when Mo Longjie saved his life.

“Also, Su Su and I will leave tomorrow night because we still need to travel the 13 provinces to train. If you encounter some problem you can’t solve, come to the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect in the Xuan Province. I should be able to help you resolve most issues. If you encounter some immediate danger, don’t hesitate to use this sword imprint.”

Zhao Jiuge was still filled with worry. Although he had resolved this matter, he still felt a lingering sense of fear. If he had been a bit late, the outcome would have been very different—the Mo family would no longer exist.

Hearing that Zhao Jiuge and Pei Su Su were going to leave so quickly, Mo Longjie wanted to keep them a bit longer. However, Zhao Jiuge had already intended to leave and would not change his decision. He had taken this trip to Dong Yang City to repay the Mo family. Now that the matter was settled, he needed to quickly leave and begin his travels. This would be more beneficial to his cultivation. He lacked time, and the Battle Competition was only two years away!

After today’s events, Mo Shouyi saw Zhao Jiuge as his idol. When he heard that Zhao Jiuge was about to leave, he felt reluctant. However, he secretly made a decision in his heart. When the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect recruited disciples, he would go and try to join!

Mo Linger’s emotions for Zhao Jiuge had already faded. She looked at how lovey-dovey Su Su and Zhao Jiuge were and only wished the best for them.

On the next day, before the sun even rose, two Foundation Realm cultivators arrived outside the Mo mansion. This immediately alerted Zhao Jiuge, Pei Su Su, and Mo Longjie.

When they arrived at the door, they saw two men wearing the yellow robes of the Flowing Cloud Sect outside. When they saw Zhao Jiuge and Mo Longjie, they immediately explained why they were here. They had come to fulfill yesterday’s promise and deliver the hundreds of thousands of spirit stones.

Leng Feng hadn’t come personally, presumably because he felt too embarrassed, so he had sent two disciples instead.

The number of spirit stones was too large, so they couldn’t fit in an ordinary storage ring. They had to use a total of three storage rings.

After those two disciples gave the storage rings to Zhao Jiuge, the more calm-tempered man respectfully said, “The Sect Master entrusted me to bring these words to you. The spirit stones have been delivered, so I hope you abide by your promise as well. You will not get involved with the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Flowing Cloud Sect will not interfere with anything in Dong Yang City.”

Zhao Jiuge smiled faintly. He looked at the man that was even older than him and said, “Go back to your sect master and tell him that I will naturally do what I promised. In the future, let us meet again at the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect.”

When the disciple received Zhao Jiuge\'s confirmation and answer, the two of them quickly went back to report the news.

“Uncle Mo, these two rings contain about 100,000 spirit stones. Keep them and use them for the Mo family. Also, gather some powerful rogue cultivators.” Zhao Jiuge casually threw two of the rings to Mo Longjie. He kept about 30,000 to himself.

Mo Longjie was completely shocked. He didn’t think Zhao Jiuge would casually give him 100,000 spirit stones. He originally wanted to reject them but was topped by Zhao Jiuge.

Seeing that everything was finished, Zhao Jiuge finally relaxed. He could finally leave without worrying.

He had picked up Little Black and had repaid the Mo family. All that was left to do was to properly travel around the world.

Deep into the night, it was completely dark outside.

At the entrance of the Mo mansion, Mo Longjie and his children stood at the gate, watching Zhao Jiuge, Pei Su Su, and Little Black leave.

Everyone’s eyes were filled with reluctance, but they knew that Zhao Jiuge didn’t belong in the small Dong Yang City. He belonged on the biggest stage in the world.

After dealing with the matter with the Mo family, Zhao Jiuge left Dong Yang City with Little Black and Su Su for an even more exciting world.

Shortly after Zhao Jiuge left, the Mo family used the spirit stones and sword imprint Zhao Jiuge had left behind to develop rapidly.

They quickly called back the people who remained loyal to the Mo family but had to be dismissed. Then they recruited a group of rogue cultivators who hadn’t joined the Xiao family.

However, those were all things in the future. At this moment, Zhao Jiuge walked with Su Su and Little Black on the official road outside Dong Yang City.
