Chapter 373
At that time, he could be said to be the most outstanding figure among the nobility of Southern Borderlands. Not only was he talented in both civil and military arts, but he also had a prominent family background. Many noble young ladies were infatuated with him.
People at the time spontaneously called him Shao Xin the Jade Faced Gentleman.
However, he only had eyes for one person - Yuan Meng, the princess of Southern Borderlands at that time.
Yuan Meng was not only beautiful, but also smart and good at military affairs.
Shao Xin felt that in the entire Southern Borderlands, only the princess could match him.
Yuan Meng also thought highly of herself. In her eyes, in the whole of Southern Borderlands, only Shao Xin was quite outstanding.
Shao Xin was over the moon to gain the princess' favor. It could be said that he got what he wished for, and devoted all his heart to Yuan Meng.
Until one day, Mo Qing's appearance broke their beautiful dreams.
From then on, Yuan Meng no longer treated him well. She even asked him to help her win Mo Qing's heart.
Facing such a request from the woman he loved, Shao Xin was helpless.
However, in order to fulfill the wish of the woman he loved, he could only go against his conscience to do things, hoping that Yuan Meng would eventually see his blind infatuation and turn back.
Who knew that after several setbacks, Yuan Meng was still obsessed with Mo Qing. She even became an accomplice to his evil deeds.
No matter who was at fault, the woman he loved eventually still died at Mo Qing's hands.
Yuan Meng might not love him, but as long as she was alive, he could see her at any time. But Mo Qing took away his hopes and dreams with one mistake.
Since this was the case, all those surnamed Mo had to accompany his beloved to her grave.
After Yuan Meng's death, Shao Xin was devastated overnight and his hair turned white.
In order to avenge his beloved woman, he reluctantly sold off all his family possessions to find a master to teach him Gu sorcery.
When his family found out that he had secretly sold all their assets, they angrily disowned him.
Not only that, he also paid a heavy price to become a first-rate Gu master.
For example, he was no longer a fully intact man...
Mo Jiuye and Mo Chongyuan were watching him closely. How could they possibly give him such a chance?
Mo Chongyuan didn't hesitate and immediately went up to cover Si Meng's mouth, not even giving him a chance to vent with his voice.
Si Meng's eyes were full of pain, and he even shed tears.
Both Mo Jiuye and Mo Chongyuan could feel that Si Meng was definitely suffering horribly right now.
However, compared to what he had done to the Mo men and his subordinates, this little bit of suffering was like a drizzle.
Mo Jiuye's eyes turned blood red. He took out another small porcelain bottle.
This was also given to him by He Zhiran. It was medicine that could make wounds fester.
However, He Zhiran had modified it slightly. When poured on the body, the medicine could only accelerate the festering of wounds, even exposing the bones, but would not spread.
Such medicine would not endanger Si Meng's life. It could still make him suffer horribly.
Especially the appearance after the wounds festered was simply too horrifying to look at directly.
Mo Jiuye forcibly grabbed Si Meng's white hair and made him sit up straight.
Then he poured the medicine on the wound on his leg. From this angle, Si Meng could see it very clearly.
His purpose was to make the old fox personally watch as his own flesh festered bit by bit until the bones were exposed.
Si Meng's expression became increasingly frightened. However, he had absolutely no ability to resist. He could only endure the terrible itch and be at their mercy.
Mo Chongyuan also saw Mo Jiuye's intentions. He went forward and tore open Si Meng's pants, exposing the scars they had beaten onto his legs.
Mo Jiuye shook the medicine bottle in front of Si Meng's eyes and said in a low voice, "Do you know what this is?"
Although Si Meng did not know exactly what it was, he could be certain it was something to torture him.
Thinking of everything he had suffered these past two days, Si Meng was truly afraid.
He wanted to beg for mercy, to make up some excuses to fool them about Mo Qing and Mo Family Eldest Son's whereabouts. But his mouth was blocked and he simply could not express himself. He could only stare at Mo Jiuye in terror and let out a series of whimpers.
Mo Jiuye could see that the old fox was begging for mercy with these actions. But he had no intention of letting his enemy off.
