Chapter 13: Don’t Know Life and Death

The reason why the Ning Family, Liu Family, and Jiang Family came to Mo Xiu was naturally not to let Mo Xiu surrender the secrets of alchemy. After all, although the three families were powerful, there were no alchemists in their family.

When Mo Xiu refined a furnace of twelve pills in the Revolving Pill Pavilion, there were a lot of witnesses at the time, and the matter was too high-profile. It would definitely be spread out in the future to make the world of cultivation crazy.

At that time, there might be countless cultivators coming to Sun Martial City, trying to control Mo Xiu.

Although the three big families were quite powerful in Sun Martial City, they certainly couldn't stop the warriors in the world.

Originally, their idea was to control Mo Xiu first, let Mo Xiu help them refine pills and help them rise, and once all the forces came to look for Mo Xiu, they would turn the forces on the bright side into the ground.

After they found an unknown place to develop slowly, with Mo Xiu, the alchemist, it was estimated that they would grow into a behemoth in a few years, and there was nothing to be afraid of even if they fought against the world of cultivation.

In other words, although the risk was great, it was only temporary. As long as they controlled Mo Xiu and survived the most difficult period of time, the future gains would be extremely huge.

Therefore, it was because of this that the people of the Liu Family and Jiang Family decided to act immediately.

Although Ning Rujian, the head of the Ning Family, was worried that Mo Xiu was a disciple of a certain hidden sect, but after Ning Fu's persuasion and careful thinking, it was very unlikely that Mo Xiu was a disciple of a hidden sect. This led him to not be able to resist the temptation and send people to participate in this matter.

Liu Xuan was different. He was an alchemist himself and didn't need Mo Xiu's help in alchemy.

He just wanted Mo Xiu's alchemy secrets. He wanted to know why Mo Xiu could still make a pill without using the alchemy furnace. He wanted to know how Mo Xiu could make twelve pills in one furnace.

Liu Xuan was not very interested in Mo Xiu. In his opinion, as long as he could obtain Mo Xiu's alchemy secrets, he could also produce twelve pills in one furnace without using the alchemy furnace. He even thought he could do more perfect than Mo Xiu.

After all, he was a pill alchemist who had refined the pill for more than 20 years, but how old was Mo Xiu? It seemed that he was not even twenty years old, so his alchemy experience was definitely not as good as him.

In other words, as long as he mastered Mo Xiu's alchemy secrets, the pill he refined could not be worse than Mo Xiu, at least he thought so.

The Ning Family, Liu Family, and Jiang Family, the three major families didn't think so much before, and the only controversial issue was who would control Mo Xiu.

Now that Liu Xuan showed up and proposed to cooperate with the three major families, Ning Wenyuan, Liu Wuyue, and Jiang Xie immediately shined.

"Yes, there is this move that I never thought of." Ning Wenyuan smiled, seemingly moved.

Liu Wuyue and Jiang Xie looked at each other, but they couldn't make up their minds.

It was not because they didn't want to cooperate with Liu Xuan. After all, as long as Liu Xuan mastered the secrets of alchemy, they could ignore Mo Xiu's life and death. When all the forces came to find Mo Xiu, they could control Mo Xiu without any worries and handed him over to them.

In this way, they didn't even need to transfer the forces on the surface to the ground, and they didn't need to carry huge risks.

What really made them undecided was whether or not to cooperate with the Ning Family. At the end of the day, the Ning Family was originally much better than the two of them.

Although the cooperation of the three families could achieve a win-win situation for the three families, in the end, the Ning Family would still be under pressure. If there was no Ning Family, and there were only the Liu Family and the Jiang Family, their strength was essentially equal, and there was nothing to be upset about.

As if seeing through the thoughts of Liu Wuyue and Jiang Xie, Ning Wenyuan suddenly put away his smile, and said coldly, "What? The Liu Family and Jiang Family are not willing to cooperate with Pavilion Master Liu? Our Ning Family has already made concessions. Or do you want to refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit instead?"

Hearing this, Jiang Xie quickly said, "Brother Wenyuan has misunderstood. We are naturally happy to cooperate with Pavilion Master Liu."

Although Liu Wuyue was a little unwilling, he quickly stated, "Our Liu Family can also cooperate with Pavilion Master Liu."

"Haha, that's the right choice." Ning Wenyuan smiled again, and the folding fan in his hand slapped again, looking personable.

Seeing that the three attitudes reached a consensus, Liu Xuan hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you all, Liu is very grateful."

After speaking, his eyes fell on Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi, who was surrounded by the crowd, "You two, we've met again."

Mo Xiu ignored him and said nothing.

Mo Ruyi was full of anger, "Pavilion Master Liu, what do you mean by this?"

Liu Xuan did not answer, but just looked at Mo Ruyi's face and his eyes flickered, "I heard that Miss Mo's face was disfigured, and I believed it at first. But now, it seems that the rumors are really not credible."

Mo Ruyi curled her lips, said nothing, but was a little happy in her heart. A fluttering sentence gave her the feeling that her appearance was truly restored and made her understand that she was not dreaming.

Liu Xuan no longer looked at Mo Ruyi, but moved his gaze to Mo Xiu, and said, "Little brother, you should know our intentions and you should hand over the secrets of alchemy. I can be merciful and forgive you not to die."

"Spare us for not dying? Do you deserve it too?" Mo Xiu's face was full of disdain.

Liu Xuan was not angry. He just said, "The Ning Family, the Liu Family, the Jiang Family, and I, Liu Xuan, there are a total of 22 Core Formation experts present. Such a lineup is enough to sweep some small and medium-sized families. Can you escape from us?"

Mo Ruyi hadn't thought about it much before, but after Liu Xuan said this, she realized that all these people around her were all Core Formation cultivators.

Even if she was full of confidence in Mo Xiu, facing so many experts, she still felt a little uneasy, and quickly asked in a low voice, "Is it really okay?"

"En." Mo Xiu nodded, appearing calmly, "The ones who should run away is them."

"Humph! Arrogant!"

Liu Xuan had already experienced Mo Xiu's arrogance when he was in Revolving Pill Pavilion, and he also knew that Mo Xiu must have dared to say arrogant words with some reliance. But now Mo Xiu was facing many Core Formation experts, and he didn't think thoroughly about how to escape, instead, he still stayed here, telling them that it was them who should run away.

Although he had never seen Mo Xiu make a move, he could see clearly the process of Mo Xiu's alchemy, unlike a person with a very high cultivation level.

As for Mo Ruyi, he didn't take her seriously from the beginning. Not to mention that they had 22 Core Formation experts, even if he was alone, he could easily crush Mo Ruyi.

In other words, Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi were not at all, nor could they be their opponents.

But Mo Xiu said arrogantly that it was these people who should run away. If this wasn't a bluff, then what was it?

"Do you think that bluffing can let me let you go? That's a ridiculous idea!" Liu Xuan sneered, and immediately said, "Brother Jiang, Brother Wen Yuan, Brother Wuyue, let's teach these two first, lest they don't know how to live or die, and lest they don't know the height of heaven and earth."

"Hehe, I just thought how can there be such an arrogant kid, it turned out to be bluffing." Liu Wuyue smiled as if he had just understood.

While flapping the fan, Ning Wenyuan said, "The gentleman speaks but does not move his hands. But this kid just wants people to move their hands. In this situation, we indeed have no other ways, we can only choose to teach him a lesson."

Jiang Xie chuckled, "Let me come. For this kind of kid who doesn't know the difference between heaven and earth, I, Jiang Xie knows best at how to teach him a lesson."

"Then I have to trouble Brother Jiang." Liu Xuan said, not forgetting to exhort him, "Just a lesson is enough, don't beat him to death, otherwise, I'm afraid that I ran here for nothing."

"I know."

Jiang Xie nodded, and immediately took two steps forward, staring at Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi like a poisonous snake. Both hands were raised and clenched into fists, making a gurgling sound, and the blue veins on the back of his hand bulged violently, looking full of power.

"Boy, it's unlucky for you to meet me, I won't kill you, I will only make you suffer a little bit of flesh and blood pain."

"By the way, this Mo Ruyi is your woman, right?"

"Don't worry, I will not kill her, I will only play with her in front of you, let you see how she surrendered to me step by step."

As Jiang Xie said, his eyes wandered on Mo Ruyi's chest and lower body very aggressively.

Mo Ruyi became a little angry, and said to Mo Xiu quickly, "Can you leave him to me to deal with?"

"You are not his opponent." Mo Xiu said with certainty.

"I know, but..." Mo Ruyi was unwilling.

"Use the Storm Pill." Mo Xiu said simply.

Mo Ruyi was stunned, and hurriedly took out the jade bottle containing the Storm Pills before, and took out a Storm Pill from it. She wanted to swallow it in, but she hesitated when the pill reached her mouth.

After all, she still knew the side effects of the Storm Pill. Although True Essence Power could skyrocket within a short period of time after taking it, but after the effect of the pill went off, she would basically become a cripple.

It was not that she was reluctant to have her own future and future, but she just felt a little extravagant, and that way, she would not be able to provide even the slightest help to Mo Xiu in the future, which was not what she wanted.

Mo Xiu saw Mo Ruyi's worry, so he turned his head and whispered a few words in Mo Ruyi's ear.

Mo Ruyi's eyes lit up, and she nodded quickly, and the worries on her face disappeared.

On the other hand, when Jiang Xie saw that Mo Ruyi wanted to take the Storm Pill, he didn't mean to stop her. On the contrary, he looked contemptuously, "Idiot, taking the Storm Pill has a dead-end side effect. You are seeking your own death. You will still not be my opponent, and the huge gap in cultivation level cannot be made up by a single Storm Pill."

"If one Storm Pill can't make up, what about eleven Storm Pills?"

As Mo Ruyi said, she poured out the remaining ten Storm Pills in the jade bottle, plus the previous one, and put them into her mouth as she chewed them with a smug look as though she was eating jelly beans instead.
