Chapter 7: Young girl, become a member of the mysterious organization
The filth continuously flowed out with the rainwater, and coupled with the purifying effect inherent in the "Little Cloud Rain Decision," the entire tree hollow soon emanated a refreshing scent
"If... if you have a need... I... I can offer my body to you... I only ask that you spare my sister." Xue Xue's expression was one of deep sorrow, but what could she do? She could only muster the courage to speak such words of sacrifice.
Moving slowly, it was almost as if he had circled the tree; even with Mo Huang's agile skills, it took more than thirty minutes
Chinese martial arts, aside from the superficial displays, are fundamentally lethal techniques. They not only strengthen the body but also serve to protect one's life and defeat enemies. If one truly excels, wielding a fine steel spear could easily take the lives of dozens of strong men with just a flick of the wrist, and even light firearms would pose no fear.
After speaking, Xue Xue found it amusing herself. The best guess now is that this is a small island on Earth that has never been discovered by humans. In that case, there is still a possibility of returning. If it were another world, then there would be no point in mentioning it. At this moment, even children would laugh at the mention of family rewards. However, Xue Xue did not say it that way; she did not know what leverage she had left. Was it her own body? Looking back at her still whimpering and crying sister, Xue Xue's expression was sorrowful, yet a trace of determination quietly emerged.
Lazily explaining so much, Mo Huang casually tossed the bloodied Lin Gongzi onto the ground and walked towards the main trunk. Poor Lin Gongzi was now covered in blood, looking utterly miserable. Dragged along the way, he naturally suffered numerous bumps and bruises. Poor Lin Gongzi had already awakened several times from the pain, but each time it was due to Mo Huang shaking his ankle casually, making him tremble like a snake, and then he would heavily hit the ground and faint again. After several such incidents, the path that Mo Huang walked was covered with the blood that Lin Gongzi had shed.
Silence gradually transformed into a suffocating and eerie atmosphere. The two women lowered their heads, anxiously twisting their delicate bodies. Their clothes were torn to shreds, barely covering their sensitive areas, while they had to constantly be mindful of the risk of exposure. At this moment, the two women awkwardly tugged at their tattered garments to shield themselves from Mo Huang's gaze
Mo Huang interrupted Xue Xue with a wave of his hand, a smile of ambiguous meaning spreading across his lips: "If I truly desired it... does your resistance as sisters hold any significance for me... the only difference lies in whether I wish to listen to your wails for my amusement."
Equivalent exchange ... ... is an eternal and unchanging truth, and since I am strong and you are weak, you have no choice but to accept or reject it.
As soon as it landed on the roots of the tree and the ground, a piercing wail and unrestrained laughter surged into Mo Huang's ears, and Mo Huang looked on in astonishment
If you only seek protection, I can promise you that, within the limits of my ability, I will safeguard you and do my utmost to ensure your safety. However, if you encounter a crisis that even I cannot withstand, you will have to fend for yourselves. Moreover, as a price for this protection, everything you possess will belong to me, to be used and commanded at my discretion. Matters of human rights and dignity should no longer be mentioned in my presence... What do you think of this arrangement
In addition to the arc-shaped platform formed by the dense green leaves at the top of the tree, there is also a bare main trunk extending about seven to eight meters high, resembling a green pancake pierced by a wooden stick
Although Mo Huang's height is not as tall as that of Young Master Lin, under the pressure of his imposing presence, it feels as if he is questioning from a position of superiority. Young Master Lin, like a frog being stared at by a venomous snake, is left trembling all over, unable to utter a single word
Throughout the journey, almost no wild beasts dared to challenge Mo Huang's authority, which left him somewhat disappointed. However, this is to be expected, as this forest has only emerged for less than three months. The wild beasts that have appeared in this new forest are primarily those weaker beasts that have migrated from other forests due to their inability to survive there, and their strength is extremely limited
Truly talented, Mo Huang could not help but mutter to himself. Under the interplay of the most acute ears and the scanning of spiritual energy, he had already discovered that some stealthy wild beasts were drawn by the sound, quietly lurking in the shadows.
Mo Huang almost burst out laughing. Setting aside whether using two women to threaten him would be effective, just seeing Young Master Lin casually grab his sister, holding her by the neck and saying he would kill her, nearly made Mo Huang unable to contain his laughter. Do you think you have practiced the Great Strength Eagle Claw Technique? Can you really kill someone with just one grab?
Especially when Mo Huang was engaged in the "King's Battle," the cacophony of the myriad beasts terrified the three of them to the point of near death. Meanwhile, the sudden surge of beastly desire from Young Master Lin could also be considered a reaction to being frightened by Mo Huang. Since they were all destined to die, they might as well enjoy it a little before their demise
We currently have no plans at all. My sister and I are just two weak women, and we do not know what to do. We are unsure whether this gentleman can truly save us. Once we return, the Xue family will certainly reward you greatly.
"You... you shameless..." Xue Xue gritted her teeth. This statement essentially implied that her sister and she could only survive by serving him as slaves. If it were just about herself, Xue Xue might have gritted her teeth and endured it out of necessity, but this statement also encompassed her sister.
Mo Huang sighed again and said, do they really think that it is merely to make the two sisters into their own fleshly tools, their surname slaves? If that were the case, they would have long since escaped their own degradation when they were under the tree. A few magical combat techniques specifically designed for brainwashing and hypnosis would ensure that these two sisters would be more obedient than pets
When they climbed to the top of the tree, feeling anxious about the possibility of falling while stepping on the green leaves at the summit, and seeing three suns overhead, the two women finally confirmed that this place had no connection whatsoever to Earth
You two, throw this garbage down from the tree
The sound of rustling continued to echo, and the surrounding wild beasts slowly retreated. In this primeval world, the aura was more useful than an ID card; the powerful could crush the weak at will with their presence. However, the three individuals present did not possess such keen spiritual awareness to discern the aura. They only felt a chill run through their bodies and instinctively turned to look behind them. Upon glancing back, the once proud figure of Young Master Lin immediately shrank down like a caterpillar.
Mo Huang walked in and saw that the tree hole was over 20 meters wide and 3 meters high. It was slightly dim, and being a place inhabited by wild beasts, it was naturally devoid of any decoration. However, there were a few areas with varying heights that barely separated the dining area from the living area
The disdain in Mo Huang's words is even more pronounced, and his disdain is justified. At this moment on Earth, there are indeed many ways to become stronger; in fact, they are everywhere. A simple search on the internet yields numerous results. Although there are both true and false methods, whether it is martial arts, Taoist practices, magic, or fighting spirit, one can find genuine clues to power online. Leaving aside the latter three, the name of Chinese martial arts is renowned worldwide. Given the family backgrounds of the two women, hiring a renowned master, and with adequate material conditions, as long as they are willing to put in hard work, in two to three years, what is the mere Qinglang Gang?
Originally, Mo Huang was filled with anticipation for the return of the spirits of the wild beasts after their death, but now it is no longer possible. As the King of Beasts at the treetop, he recklessly slaughters the wild beasts of the same tree, which is not in accordance with the unspoken rules of the Wildwood Realm and will lead to a rebellion by the wild beasts.
When the two women had finished their tasks and the tree hollow was completely transformed, Mo Huang waved at them. As the two women stood before him with anxious expressions, he spoke: "Well... there is no need to beat around the bush, let's get straight to the point. You are both too weak, essentially just two burdens."
I will only give you one chance, so speak to me with clarity and reason. If you lose your mind, then go keep company with that fool over there. Mo Huang said this with his arms crossed, speaking in a relaxed manner. He meant what he said; he had neither the mood nor the time to soothe a hysterical little woman, as there were many important matters awaiting his attention.
Uh... thank you... thank you for saving us sisters. Xue Xueqiang calmed down, having first been captured, coerced, and nearly assaulted, then witnessing a bloody massacre she had never seen in her life, and then mysteriously crossing over to this place, almost falling victim to another assault. The excessive stimulation left her mentally and physically exhausted, wishing she could just faint away, but thinking of her beloved younger sister behind her, she had no choice but to muster all her strength to deal with this mysterious and ruthless killer.
With a light cough, he released an imposing aura, subtly gesturing before retracting it once more. Although the duration was brief, the fleeting display of brutal and bloody killing intent had already proclaimed Mo Huang's formidable strength
Stepping on wooden lumps that resembled stepping stones and branches that resembled roads, they slowly made their way towards the top of the tree. The continuous elevation changes in their climb made Xue Xue feel a sense of gratitude for having practiced rock climbing on Earth. Moreover, the mysterious man before them seemed to possess not a shred of compassion, allowing the two sisters to climb, breathless, without offering a helping hand, as he simply dragged Young Master Lin along ahead.
Although one day Mo Huang will leave the Wilderness Realm to continue his adventures and seek opportunities in other planes, at this moment, the identity of a Beast King at the treetops holds significant advantages
The two sisters of the Xue family remained bound by collars, chains, and leg shackles, forced to maintain a humiliating posture of kneeling with their heads held high. However, now the two women were compelled to lie on the ground, frantically twisting their delicate bodies in struggle, their clothes torn and scattered everywhere, while the perpetrator was none other than Young Master Lin
Xue Qi grasped Xue Xue's arm, her expression one of reluctance, while Xue Xue looked on with great distaste. However, after much contemplation, she gritted her teeth and bravely stepped forward to drag the remains of the wild beast. Seeing her sister drenched in sweat from the effort, the sisterly bond compelled the younger sister to rush over and lend a hand
Do not worry, this change is a good thing for you
Three hundred years later, it will be an era belonging to the strong, where the glory of the strong is unparalleled. Becoming strong is the dream of every person on Earth. Therefore, Mo Huang sometimes finds it difficult to understand the thoughts of people from the 21st century. Take the Xue sisters as an example; Mo Huang cannot comprehend why these two sisters are so enamored with the false strength of their family background, rather than striving to become strong enough to face all dangers and challenges. Why, when faced with adversity, do they only complain about their misfortune instead of using their own hands to change their destiny?
Repeatedly in this manner, the two sisters instead felt at ease, wholeheartedly following Mo Huang's steps as they wound their way upward
You are too weak ... from body to spirit, you are an unequivocal weakling
During this period, various terrifying and grotesque wild beasts continuously appeared, roaring at the crowd with all sorts of cries, drooling profusely, seemingly very interested in the flesh of the people. The two sisters were naturally so frightened that they could not move. Whenever this happened, with just a glance from Mo Huang, the wild beasts would retreat to their lairs like frightened little dogs, whimpering as they went.
You... you... don't come over here, if you come any closer, I will kill them.
All three recognized Mo Huang simultaneously. Although the mask was gone, the bloodstained clothes had not been changed. Who else could it be but the mysterious organization assassin that had crazily slaughtered the Qinglang Gang
Is that true? Then what should we do?" As the situation took a turn, Xue Xue, who was caught in a fierce psychological struggle, immediately pressed for an answer.
Xue Qi was somewhat dazed, still whimpering and crying, but Xue Xue made a decisive decision and immediately pulled her sister to closely follow Mo Huang
Thus, Mo Huang looked down upon them, as the two sisters at this moment still wished to entrust their lives, their most precious possessions, to him in search of protection, rather than to resist or to fight
"Sister, I still feel unwell." "Qier, hold on, it's nothing... nothing at all."
Having dealt with this foolish rich second generation, Mo Huang looked at the woman before her with great interest. After witnessing the tragic fate of Young Master Lin, she surprisingly still had the courage to meet her gaze. Although she appeared to be trembling and panicked like a quail, at least she seemed to be somewhat aware.
It is true, if you sisters agree, I can accept you as peripheral members of the organization, and then represent the organization to provide you with certain training. However, the organization does not accept waste, so you only have one chance. Be mentally prepared; if your performance does not satisfy me... I will represent the organization to eliminate you sisters, along with your families. So now answer me... Do you sisters wish to join the organization?
Leaving aside this statement, Mo Huang looked at Xue Xue's struggling expression and couldn't help but let out a sigh. Mo Huang estimated that after a while, this woman before him would still agree to his conditions, at most putting up a fight to ensure her younger sister would not be affected. As for that younger sister, she had been whimpering and crying all the way, and even now, she was still hiding behind her sister, looking at her with a confused expression. If the sister truly made a decision, it was likely that the younger sister would not show any resistance and would probably just resign herself to fate.
The remains of several prey are still piled up in the feeding area. Although there are no disgusting creatures like maggots and flies, the half-rotten corpses are still quite unappetizing.
Young Master Lin's complexion suddenly turned pale, cold sweat pouring down, his throat convulsing, and it seemed he had the urge to vomit again. Although the two young women of the Xue family looked hopeful, they could not conceal the fear in their expressions.
Mo Huang showed no mercy, even speaking with malevolent words, immediately causing Xue Qi to appear alarmed, her steps involuntarily retreating, as if she would flee at the slightest movement from Mo Huang. Xue Qi could only smile wryly, thinking, where could she run to? Leaving this man meant death wherever she went; she had not forgotten the ravenous hunger reflected in the eyes of those wild beasts as they gazed at her.
A large hole had been hollowed out in the trunk, and it was evident that this was the den of the few wild wolves. Mo Huang stepped inside and immediately covered his nose, retreating back out. Although there was no feces inside, the long-term habitation of wild beasts meant it was also a place where they fed, and the smell was far from pleasant. He quickly formed a hand seal, and a small dark cloud materialized between Mo Huang's hands. His fingers danced as he continuously executed complex hand gestures, causing the small cloud to grow larger. In no time, it expanded to several meters in size. Then, with a point of his finger, the cloud floated into the cave, and a heavy rain began to pour down.
Mo Huang did not respond directly; he extended his hands, and the chains binding Xue Xue's hands and feet were directly torn apart. He then approached Xue Qi and dealt with her accordingly, before walking over to the unconscious Young Master Lin, who was lying in a spread-eagle position. Grabbing his ankle, he slowly made his way towards the large tree, saying: "Stay close to me"
Mo Huangwei lowered his head, the shadows obscuring his features, his words resonating with a haunting quality as if they were emanating from the depths of the underworld
Mo Huang sat confidently, resting his chin on his left hand, watching the busy figures of the two women, lost in thought.
As Mo Huang descended, Young Master Lin had just about torn the clothes of the two women apart, leering at their exposed figures while laughing maniacally as he removed his own clothes
Mo Huang let out a sigh, feeling that speaking another word to such a useless person was a waste of his precious time in the vast wilderness. He was too lazy to use any combat skills; with a powerful swing of his fist, Young Master Lin spun a few times in the air, several teeth accompanied by blood scattered into the air, before collapsing a few meters away and losing consciousness.
It is nothing; I just happened to save two small animals, performing a good deed for the day. By the way, based on my recent observations, we are no longer on Earth. What are your plans now
However, due to my urgent need for personnel at this moment, I can offer you an opportunity to become members of the organization
Upon witnessing such a supernatural artificial rainfall, the expressions of the two women towards Mo Huang became increasingly peculiar, while Mo Huang himself felt completely at ease. Before his rebirth, his basic Taoist combat technique, "Xiao Yun Yu Jue," could only be considered rudimentary; on Earth, it was merely capable of forming a cloud the size of a human head to wash his hands. However, he did not expect that in this world of abundant spiritual energy, the power of his combat technique would actually be multiplied.
If left unchecked, it is feared that what will unfold is not a passionate and intense scene of one man versus two women, but rather a bloody spectacle of a pack of wild beasts devouring the tender flesh of three humans
Contempt, disdain, and a hint of pity—this is the true attitude of Mo Huang towards the two women at this moment. Both women stood speechless and uneasy, unsure of what Mo Huang intended to say. However, after Mo Huang finished this statement, he fell into silence once again.
Mo Huang was left dumbfounded; he found it hard to comprehend just how thick-skinned one must be to wake up in an extremely mysterious and unknown place and have the first reaction be one of lust
However, Mo Huang expressed understanding towards this. It was evident that Young Master Lin was merely a wealthy second-generation with a good appearance, and his low intelligence could be somewhat understood. Mo Huang paid no attention to Young Master Lin's panicked cries, walking up to him, who was holding the hostage, and said calmly: "Show me how you kill."
Despite Xue Xue's elite education from her family, which has endowed her with strong logical thinking skills, she was still overwhelmed by such a sudden and explosive topic, leaving her momentarily dazed. What plans could she possibly have? In fact, shortly after Mo Huang left, the three of them regained consciousness. They were not foolish; upon observing the bizarre ecological environment and recalling the strange scene of their previous crossing, certain unsettling speculations involuntarily surfaced in their minds.
