What happened earlier.

On a three, two silhouettes are tightly hiding as they observe tried to peak at any detail they can get from the Mo Family residence.

"They kept practicing the same thing all over again..."

"Yeah, but sometimes, they will go back to the basics, squatting, standing on a pole for as long as they can..."

"Yeah, basics should've been over once a child reached the age of 8, they should be enhancing all of their skills instead."

"Yeah, we've been observing for so many days yet we haven't seen any hints about how or where they are getting the weapons from..."

"Which Kingdom had they come from? Heavenly Samsara Sect..."

"The 11th Elder had ordered us to watch this Clan for too long, when will we act?"

"It seemed that there really is no such thing as the Heavenly Samsara Sect, we'll report it to the 11th Elder immediately."

The other one nodded, the both of them stood up, but as soon as they did, they felt something extremely strange, somehow it felt like someone is glaring at them from afar.

"Not good..." One of them spoke.

But as soon as they tried to move, their body didn't respond.

"This..." The two became speechless, their body isn't responding to their mind's order.

The two of them started to circulate the Spiritual Energy within their body, but as soon as they pulled some Spiritual Energy from their Soul Sea they stopped, it felt like a hand is clutching their hearts, beads of sweat started to appear all over their body.

*RAAAAAWR!* A Deafening roar sounded, the two felt their body trembled at its sound, they tried to move out of the way.

_Swish~ Shichuk!_ But before they can, two swift projectiles that are aiming at them descended from the sky.

The two stopped their movement as something struck them from behind and went straight through to his stomach. They opened their eyes widely as they stared at the 'M' shaped tip of the arrow that had pierced through their body.

The first thing a person needs to do is to break the arrow into two and pulling it out from each end before recovering and that's exactly what the two of them tried to do, but as soon as they did, they were shocked, the arrows were too hard, its like breaking an iron spear with mere mortal strength!

But something happened after, there is something moving inside their body, the two of them shivered, and just as-as soon as they felt it, that something inside their body started to move.

"GRAAAAAAA!"

"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!"

The two of them howled to the top of their lungs, that something inside their body is mutilating their inside, their internal organs felt like its being scratched and munched at the same time.

They clutched their stomach, trying to send Spiritual Energy to fight it, but, their actions are futile, not even two seconds have passed, the two black gold ranked cultivators slumped to the ground lifelessly, and just at the same time, the two arrows embedded on their body glowed and vanished.

.

...

"Blood!" Qingmei exclaimed.

Although she had prepared to see blood when pursuing the martial path, with how sudden the event is, she almost vomited. The arrow is not only covered with blood as it dripped but the edge of it also has skins, a torn part of clothing, and some flesh, there is also something indescribable, almost like an internal organ hanging around the middle part of the arrow near Mo Xie's hands.

The arrow's tip has a form of the letter 'M', clearly, something that is designed to be extremely hard to be removed once embedded inside the body.

Qingmei shuddered, it feels like Mo Xie who has a kind aura around him vanished, and in exchange a savage blood asura replaced him. The sudden change of Mo Xie's personality made Qingmei scared, her legs finally gave in as she slumped on the ground, her whole body is shaking, and between her two lovely white legs, something is threatening to get out.

Mo Xie noticed Qingmei's reaction as he sighed, instead of returning the arrow inside his body, he stored it in his storage ring, he wouldn't want his body to be littered with someone else's blood after all.

Mo Xie looked at Qingmei as he used a water elemental Soul Spirit and washed the blood on his hands: "Miss Qingmei, I've just killed two bugs, don't worry about it."

Mo Xie's smile flash, slowly calming Qingmei's trembling heart, she slightly nodded as she tried to stand up, but with her shaking legs...

"Ah!" She stumbled, with an attempt to regain her balance, she twisted her ankle, almost falling to the ground.

As a cultivator, it is a very rare occasion to happen, but she's only a silver ranked cultivator, and without proper physical body training, her body is weak, and with the addition that she has not protected her body with Spiritual Energy, the accident happened.

"Careful." A voice sounded as a hand stretched towards her back, directly catching her before her rear can fall to the ground.

Qingmei's gaze slowly turned towards the owner of the hand, moving as it landed on Mo Xie's face, her eyes crossing path with his, sending shivers from her neck down to her spine, her body started to tremble, yet this is something totally different from before.

Her face started to turn bright red, the warmth that is surging from her chest started to spread all over her body, wrapping every inch of her whole being. Something she had never felt before is bursting out of nowhere.

Qingmei tried to stand up alone, but as soon as she did, she lost her balance again. Mo Xie caught here up again and assisted her up.

"You wouldn't be able to walk, I`ll help you."

"This... Then thank you." Qingmei blushes further as she nodded, then something that she hadn't expected happened.

"Kyaa!"

"Let's go." Mo Xie lifted her up in a princess carry position and started to walk back to the grand hall.

Don't get it wrong, Mo Xie has no feelings of attachment to Qingmei, it is just purely assisting her.

After a while, the two arrived at the grand hall, witnessing Mo Xie carrying Qingmei in a lovely position, all the elders and the Patriarch smiled expectantly.

Mo Xie smiled at them as he went straight towards an empty chair and placed Qingmei gently down. He went straight to the center after and spoke: "Patriarch, I will be leaving now, can I trouble you all again with another thing?"

Jiang Qiang smiled as he nodded repeatedly: "Of course, hahaha, I`ll try my best to do anything you like."

Mo Xie nodded as he continued: "I`d like to request for all the materials gathered here to be delivered to the Mo Family, and if Patriarch Jiang still has some more in the future, you can freely trade it with our Mo Family."

Hearing this, everyone became elated! They have not enough spirit stones, but if they can trade these sort of low-level materials for strong weapons, it would be hitting the jackpot! The only thing they needed to do is be focusing their manpower towards the mining works and their clan will soar leaps and bounds!

"Of course, we will gladly do so!" Jiang Qiang smiled from ear to ear, extremely happy to the outcome of Mo Xie's visit.

"Then, I will bid my farewell." Mo Xie bowed as started to walk out.

Jiang Qiang wanted to send Mo Xie out with either Qingmei or Qianmei, sadly, it is impossible, Qianmei had gone back to her courtyard while Qingmei seemed to have injured her foot, hence, the only next best thing to do is for himself to walk Mo Xie off.

"Then, I will see you out myself." Jiang Qiang smiled as he jumped towards Mo Xie, landing beside him and started to walk with him side by side to the exit of the Jiang Clan.

Mo Xie sighed, he clearly knew of Qiang's intention, but rejecting now might become too forced, he nodded his head and walked out of the Jiang Clan before bidding each other farewell.

After a while, Jiang Qian went back to his throne as they happily chatted together. At this moment, a silhouette appeared.

"Patriarch! Patriarch!" That silhouette is running frantically towards the grand hall as he repeatedly called.

"What are you shouting for?" An elder exclaimed.

"That... I`m sorry, I have an urgent report!" The servant bowed as he lowered his head.

"Hahaha, then, just report it for now." Jiang Qian is in a great mood right now, hence, he wouldn't even be mad if his favorite base is to be destroyed.

"Reporting to Patriarch, there is a news of great importance!" The servant spoke, he paused for a bit to catch his breath before continuing.

"We found two murdered bodies a few tens of meters away from the Mo Family's residence!

Two peak 10-star Black Gold ranked cultivators! Their internal body had been mutilated so bad!"

Hearing this, everyone started to chat amongst themselves, the death of two black gold ranks is a great loss to the Gangting City's power, the Clan that had them under their wings must've suffered a lot no matter where they came from.

Jiang Qiang pondered for a bit before he asked: "How did they die?"

"This... There is a mark of an arrow injury from their back as it came out of their stomach, but there is no sign on how their insides were mutilated!" The servant reported.

The elders and the Patriarch started to talk to themselves, but inside the grand hall, someone is shivering to the extreme, Qingmei. She immediately remembered the event that transpired earlier, the arrows that Mo Xie shot that time, and the time when Mo Xie summoned it back, his arrows covered with blood and other bodily parts.

Remembering this, Qingmei couldn't help but to feel extremely afraid, she felt like vomiting too remembering such a thing.

Jiang Qiang noticed this as he looked at his daughter and asked: "What's the matter Qingmei?"

Qingmei woke up from her daze as she tried to stand up limping slightly and replied: "Nothing father, I will return to my courtyard for now."

Jiang Qian sighed as he nodded: "Rest well, you and your little sister is the pride of our Jiang Clan, and also me, your Father's."

Qingmei forced a smile from her gentle lips as she continues to walk out of the grand hall with the assistance of two female servants.

Qingmei looked at the sky as she remembered Mo Xie; 'Who are you... really...'

A question that came from the bottom of her heart, but only Mo Xie can answer something like this himself. Hearing the servant's report, Qingmei has a ton of question for Mo Xie, who's the real you? The kind and gentle man? or that time when you shot the bow? the mysterious killing intent in his eyes that emitted a cold and terrible aura.

Qingmei couldn't help but find Mo Xie to be an extremely mysterious person.
