Chapter 692 690: Allies by the Side, Power Behind
It seemed like a reunion with an old acquaintance.
"I was supposed to die, but I didn't." Shang Xun replied unhurriedly.
"Why do you want to kill Mo Lin?" Six-Eared Mingyue questioned Shang Xun.
Mo Lin and Shang Xun were not on the same level at all.
One was from the East District, the other from the South District.
There couldn't possibly be any grudges between them.
Six-Eared Mingyue was confused about why Shang Xun was determined to kill Mo Lin.
Shang Xun raised her head, her gaze cold as she looked at Mo Lin, pointing a finger at him.
"If he dies, I can live again."
What Shang Xun meant by living again was obviously in a spiritual sense.
"Only by killing Mo Lin can the guilt in my heart disappear," Shang Xun added.
Six-Eared Mingyue didn't understand the meaning of Shang Xun's words.
But she couldn't let Shang Xun make a move against Mo Lin.
Six-Eared Mingyue waved her hand, shielding Mo Lin behind her, and coldly said to Shang Xun: "Mo Lin has done a great favor for the Six-Eared Race.
I hope you can spare his life for my sake."
"Impossible." Shang Xun refused decisively without any hesitation.
Shang Xun had an agreement with her sister.
If she killed Mo Lin, she would gain her sister's forgiveness.
Shang Xun had reasons she couldn't ignore for needing to kill Mo Lin.
Six-Eared Mingyue wasted no more words and directly took action.
A terrifying pressure was released.
At the same time, Shang Xun also made her move, and a purple-blue Immortal Qi surged forth.
The magnificent Immortal Qi instantly illuminated the entire night sky.
Six-Eared Mingyue and Shang Xun's figures intersected in the air.
They stopped after just one exchange.
At their level, when they fought, there was no victory or defeat, only life or death.
That move just now was a simple probing.
Shang Xun knew very well that even if she could win against Six-Eared Mingyue, she would surely be seriously injured.
At that point, she wouldn't be able to kill Mo Lin at all.
So, Shang Xun temporarily gave up on the idea of killing Mo Lin.
She wasn't in a hurry; she had plenty of time.
Shang Xun looked at Mo Lin, threatening, "Six-Eared Mingyue can protect you for a moment but can't protect you for a lifetime.
There will always be times when Six-Eared Mingyue isn't by your side."
With those words, Shang Xun left directly.
Six-Eared Mingyue didn't stop Shang Xun, nor could she have.
"What have you done to provoke her?" Six-Eared Mingyue asked Mo Lin.
"I don't know." Mo Lin shook his head.
He truly didn't understand why Shang Xun insisted on killing him.
Six-Eared Mingyue watched Shang Xun's disappearing figure and sighed softly, "She's a ruthless demon, yet also a person of misfortune.
Perhaps what happened back then left her with psychological scars."
"Hmm?" Mo Lin replied, puzzled.
"After Shang Xun received the blessing of the God, she went mad and slaughtered her family of six in one night, leaving only a sister alive by luck.
During that time, she killed millions.
Later on, for some unknown reason, Shang Xun returned to normal, and then she suddenly disappeared.
Everyone thought she was dead."
That's all Six-Eared Mingyue knew about Shang Xun.
She wasn't aware of any more details.
"I really don't know why Shang Xun insists on killing me." Mo Lin complained.
Six-Eared Mingyue felt the atmosphere was a bit heavy and jokingly asked Mo Lin, "Shang Xun has a sister named Fairy Yunxia.
Fairy Yunxia has a sword called the Purple and Blue Treasure Sword.
If you can draw out the Purple and Blue Treasure Sword, you'll be Fairy Yunxia's chosen one.
If you become Fairy Yunxia's chosen one, Shang Xun definitely won't kill you."
"Not necessarily." Mo Lin disagreed.
"You don't understand the allure of the Purple and Blue Treasure Sword.
Nor do you understand what it means for Fairy Yunxia if you can draw out the Purple and Blue Treasure Sword.
Even if Shang Xun wants to kill, Fairy Yunxia won't allow it."
Seeing Mo Lin in a daze, Six-Eared Mingyue snorted coldly.
"What are you thinking! Do you really think you can draw out the Purple and Blue Treasure Sword?"
Six-Eared Mingyue poured cold water on Mo Lin.
No one in the entire South District, among billions, could draw out the Purple and Blue Treasure Sword.
How could Mo Lin possibly draw out the Purple and Blue Treasure Sword?
A one-in-a-billion chance falling on Mo Lin?
Absolutely impossible.
At least, that's what Six-Eared Mingyue thought.
"Can you arrange for the Gen Family to leave the East District?" Mo Lin asked Six-Eared Mingyue.
Six-Eared Mingyue shook her head, "Can't.
The situation in the East District is very complicated now, and it's extremely difficult for even one person to leave.
Letting over a hundred people from the Gen Family leave the East District is even more impossible."
Seeing Mo Lin somewhat disappointed, Six-Eared Mingyue added, "My Six-Eared Race will protect them."
In the distance, Gen Family Business heard Six-Eared Mingyue's words, clenching his fists involuntarily.
He knew well how much weight Six-Eared Mingyue's words carried.
With just one sentence, Six-Eared Mingyue ensured that the Gen Family wouldn't mysteriously lose people in the East District in the future.
"As long as you live, I will shelter the Gen Family. If you die, I won't care about the Gen Family." Six-Eared Mingyue added.
"Thank you." Mo Lin thanked Six-Eared Mingyue.
"I'm tired; I'm going to rest." Six-Eared Mingyue waved to Mo Lin, turned, and went to rest.
Everyone in the room gradually left one after another.
Only Mo Lin and Gen Family Business remained, sitting in the room and chatting.
From acquaintances to becoming friends.
The three words "good friends" couldn't even begin to describe their relationship.
"Do you think I can seek revenge against Xin Ziruo?"
Mo Lin's forefinger danced back and forth in the candle flame, playing with it as he asked Gen Family Business.
Since returning to the East District, Mo Lin suddenly found that what was once just a matter of revenge had become complicated.
It was like climbing a mountain, thinking he was close to the end, only to look up and find the summit beyond sight,
"Mo, it's a bit difficult."
Gen Family Business's voice was hoarse as he lay back in the chair, sighing softly.
"Xin Ziruo is now a Goddess.
Seeking revenge against her is no different than undertaking a pilgrimage to the West.
Beside her are the Evil Buddha, Evil Spirit, Yellow Springs Realm, and Evil God.
Seeking revenge against her is akin to overturning the entire East District.
It's too difficult... as hard as scaling the sky."
If it were just a simple personal vendetta, it would be easier.
But Xin Ziruo wasn't stupid; she had forces she could rely on, so why would she face Mo Lin one-on-one?
Besides, even in a fair fight, Mo Lin might not necessarily win against Xin Ziruo.
"Xin Ziruo has people beside her and backing her."
Gen Family Business spoke in a teasing tone, "I can't help you much at all, and might even hold you back."
"Though I'm not sure what Xin Ziruo is up to, she's definitely planning to eliminate you too."
Mo Lin was always plotting to enhance his strength and take revenge.
Similarly, Xin Ziruo wasn't idle; she was surely planning something too.
Xin Ziruo couldn't possibly allow Mo Lin to live indefinitely.
....
In a certain great hall.
"Useless... useless..."
A voice of reprimand echoed in the air.
A woman dressed in luxurious silver and white clothing was furious.
Everyone around kept their heads down, not daring to speak.
"How dare he? He nearly ruined my plans.
I already warned against making a move on Mo Lin.
Does Mo Fengxiao not understand human language?
He deserved to die.
What a pity for the Immortal Ghost Skill." This woman was Xin Ziruo.
"Master, are we not going to kill Mo Lin?" a man respectfully asked Xin Ziruo.
"Kill him, of course, we will kill him.
Just not right now.
Not ready to alert the snake yet, I'm afraid he might pick up on something and run."
Xin Ziruo wasn't refraining from attacking Mo Lin out of kindness or any desire to spare his life.
She simply didn't want to alert Mo Lin.
