Chapter 18: Killing Array

Mo's house.

Qin Wuyang, Young Miss of the Qin Family, came to visit.

Mo Wuxian was in charge of the reception and took Qin Wuyang around the mansion. As he walked, he introduced various sceneries of the mansion.

After walking around, the two found a place to sit and rest.

Qin Wuyang glanced at Mo Wuxian, then looked around, his gaze fell on a maidservant in the distance, and said casually, "I suddenly remembered that your former Patriarch Mo Zhuo seems to have an adopted daughter named Mo Ruyi, right?"

Mo Wuxian was stunned for a moment, then he smiled, "That's right. Why? Is Miss Qin interested in her?"

"I am a little interested in her. After all, Mo Ruyi is said to be a rare beauty."

Qin Wuyang said, then asked, "Where is Mo Ruyi? Why didn't I see her?"

"If Miss Qin wants to see her, it would be really a pity that she went out early in the morning." Mo Wuxian replied truthfully.

"Went out? Is she alone?"

"No, she went out with others."

"Who?"

"..."

Mo Wuxian couldn't help but look at Qin Wuyang more, always feeling that Qin Wuyang's focus was not right. It seemed that it was not Mo Ruyi that really interested Qin Wuyang, but the person who went out with Mo Ruyi.

Although the matter in Revolving Pill Pavilion had spread in Sun Martial City, Mo Wuxian had not received relevant news for the time being. He didn't know that Qin Wuyang had already met Mo Ruyi, so apart from some doubts, he really didn't think much about it.

The matter was related to Mo Xiu, and he didn't want to say anything at first, but Qin Wuyang's identity was quite special – the jewel in the palm of the Qin Family's leader, and the Qin Family was a big family in Fu City.

It would be a good thing to win Qin Wuyang's favor. It would be even better if he had the opportunity to become the son-in-law of the Qin Family and obtain such a backing from the Qin Family.

Thinking of this, he replied, "Mo Xiu, she went out with Mo Xiu."

"Mo Xiu?" Qin Wuyang blinked, "Isn't he a fool?"

Mo Wuxian sighed, "Originally, he was really a fool, but just yesterday, he suddenly changed himself. He no longer has that foolish look. Instead, he is more normal than anyone else. We still don't know exactly what happened to him."

Qin Wuyang seemed very surprised, lowered her head, and muttered to herself, "It turned out to be him..."

"Miss Qin?" Mo Wuxian felt that Qin Wuyang's reaction was somewhat inexplicable.

"Sorry, I was rude."

Qin Wuyang raised her head, the expression on her face returned to normal, and immediately said, "I heard that after Mo Zhuo died, the position of the Patriarch of your Mo Family has been hanging up in the air. Now that Mo Xiu has become a normal person, it is estimated that he will soon become the next monarch of the family, right?"

Hearing this, Mo Wuxian's face changed, and he clenched his fists subconsciously, but quickly released them, "Miss Qin, you have misunderstood this. Even if he turns from a fool to a normal person, that won't change the fact that he was once a fool, and whoever is the head of the family is not sure yet. Even if he is normal now, he still has to rely on his strength to speak."

"In other words, is your strength much stronger than him?" Qin Wuyang asked with interest.

"Of course it is." Mo Wuxian nodded, "My third uncle's strength is not as good as ours, let alone that Mo Xiu who is just a fool! As long as we are willing, we can suppress him by flipping our hands."

As soon as his voice fell, a cold voice suddenly rang, "Mo Wuxian, who do you think is a fool?"

"..."

Mo Wuxian seemed to have encountered a natural enemy, his whole body trembled subconsciously. Looking up in the direction of the sound, he saw two figures entering one after another. It was Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi.

The person who spoke was naturally Mo Ruyi.

If there was only Mo Ruyi alone, Mo Wuxian was not very afraid. After all, Mo Ruyi's strength was very limited, and Mo Ruyi would not kill him.

But Mo Ruyi and Mo Xiu were together, and facing Mo Xiu, he had to be scared. He was unfathomable himself, and there was still that kind of intangible means of killing people. If he really were targeted by Mo Xiu, he was afraid that he would not know how he died in the end.

Don't look at his extraordinary look and the sentence that he said just now. In fact, this was impossible. He just wanted to fight for Qin Wuyang and want some face.

As he was still embarrassed, he suddenly saw Qin Wuyang get up and greet Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi.

"Two friends, we meet again."

As Qin Wuyang said, her gaze stayed on Mo Xiu, and she said sincerely, "Young Master Xiu, I am here to apologize to you. I have offended you before. I hope you will not remember the offense and don't care about me."

"En." Mo Xiu nodded lightly, looking a little cold.

Seeing this scene, Mo Wuxian in the pavilion was dumbfounded.

Apologize? Why did she apologize?

Did Qin Wuyang know Mo Xiu before?

When talking to him just now, although Qin Wuyang did not show any dislike for him, there was a lot of distance between the two. It seemed that Qin Wuyang didn't want to get too close to him.

But now, when facing Mo Xiu, although her performance was not very obvious, he felt that Qin Wuyang's attitude had undergone a 180-degree change. At least he could not see the kind of alienation that Qin Wuyang deliberately created.

He even felt that if it wasn't for Mo Xiu to be a little cold, if it wasn't for Qin Wuyang to be somewhat reserved by everyone, if it wasn't for Mo Ruyi to be beside Mo Xiu, he was afraid Qin Wuyang would stick to Mo Xiu at this time.

"So that's the case!" Looking back on some of the details, Mo Wuxian finally understood.

It turned out that she came here for Mo Xiu, who came to ask Mo Xiu to apologize.

He always thought that he had the possibility of winning Qin Wuyang's favor and becoming the son-in-law of the Qin Family, and he had always thought that the Qin Family had the possibility of being his help.

Now it seemed that he was too naive.

Thinking of this, he quickly got up from his seat and said to Qin Wuyang, "Miss Qin, since you know them, you can let them accompany, I have a matter to attend."

After talking, he quickly turned and left.

"Mo Wuxian, stop!" Mo Ruyi still wanted to talk to Mo Wuxian.

Mo Wuxian just pretended not to hear anything, speeded up his pace and drifted away, and soon disappeared from Mo Ruyi's sight.

"Shameless!" Mo Ruyi curled her lips, looking quite dissatisfied.

Mo Xiu didn't take it seriously, just glanced at Mo Ruyi and said casually, "Let's go."

Mo Ruyi bid farewell to Qin Wuyang, and then walked to the courtyard where she lived with Mo Xiu.

Qin Wuyang looked at the backs of the two leaving, suddenly feeling a little uncomfortable, and muttered to herself, "It turns out that he really didn't take me to heart."

She came here to apologize specially, she finally figured out the identity of Mo Xiu, finally saw Mo Xiu, and finally apologized to Mo Xiu, but Mo Xiu just replied "En" lightly, and he didn't even focus his gaze on her.

As the dignified Young Miss of the Qin Family, it was the first time she felt this feeling of being left out.

...

"Young Master, Young Miss, you are finally back."

Ru Hua saw that Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi returned to the courtyard and hurried out to greet them.

After speaking, she noticed that the scar on Mo Ruyi's face was gone. Not only did her face recover, but she also looked more perfect than before, "Miss, your face..."

"Well, I recovered." Mo Ruyi smiled sweetly.

"That's great! This servant has always felt that Young Miss's face will recover, but I didn't expect this day to come so fast." Ru Hua looked sincerely happy for Mo Ruyi.

At this moment, Mo Xiu suddenly asked, "Did anyone come and take back those corpses from last night?"

"No." Ru Hua shook her head slightly.

"Where are those corpses now?" Mo Xiu asked again.

"It has been placed in the small room in the corner as ordered by Young Master." Ru Hua replied.

"That's good." Mo Xiu nodded lightly, "You go back to the room first, don't come out temporarily without my instructions."

"Yes, Young Master." Ru Hua nodded and answered without hesitation, turning back to her room, closing the door, and locking it.

Only Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi remained in the yard.

Mo Xiu took a look at Mo Ruyi and opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he chose to not say it in the end. He just found a branch and draw something in every corner of the yard.

Mo Ruyi watched for a while, feeling somewhat inexplicable, and couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Mo Xiu, what are you doing?"

"Arrange the magic array." Mo Xiu didn't hide it.

"You know how to set up a magic array?" Mo Ruyi was suddenly surprised.

"A little bit." Mo Xiu nodded gently.

Mo Ruyi didn't ask when Mo Xiu learned to deploy an array, but was a little curious, "What array do you set up?"

"Killing array." Mo Xiu replied concisely.

"Killing array? Why do you suddenly set up a killing array in our yard?" Mo Ruyi was puzzled.

The movement of Mo Xiu's hand paused for a while, then looked back at Mo Ruyi, and soon continued to draw the array, still not forgetting to answer, "People from the five great families will soon come together to kill us."

"Ah! How do you know?" Mo Ruyi was surprised.

Before Mo Xiu could answer, she found the answer on her own, "That's right, the Ning Family, the Liu Family, and the Jiang Family have all died in our hands. They are not alone like Liu Xuan. And I'm 80% sure that they will launch a more violent offensive by then. In this way, it makes sense to join the other Zheng Family and Guo Family to kill us."

Mo Xiu nodded secretly, this was indeed the truth.

Of course, the reason why he said that the five great families would join forces to kill them soon was not just speculation, but rather accurate information.

Patriarchs of the five great families gathered together to discuss the matter of jointly exerting pressure on the Mo Family. It seemed that only five parties knew about it, but in fact, they could not escape Mo Xiu's Divine Consciousness at all.

And how powerful was Mo Xiu's Divine Consciousness? Even if he had been watching the five people's every move with his Divine Consciousness, the five people would not be aware of it at all.

After a while, the details of the killing array were completed, and Mo Xiu found a place to sit down and began to refine the array flag.

There were 13 flags in total.

After finishing the refining, Mo Xiu raised his hand and waved, twelve of them flew out and inserted in every corner of the courtyard, leaving only one array flag for control in his hand.

In the courtyard, a bloody light rose into the sky, and a bloodthirsty, violent killing array gradually took shape.

Immediately, Mo Xiu went to the small room in the corner and removed the corpses to the outside ground.

"Rumble..."

There was a deafening loud noise, bloody rays of light wrapped the corpses, and then blood mists spread from various places and filled the entire small courtyard.

Obviously, the movement inside the yard was very loud, but no one noticed anything outside the yard, not to mention the blood mist that filled the yard, even the bloody light that shot up into the sky before was not noticed, let alone the weird trembling sound, it was as if nothing had happened.
