Chapter 492: Dislike of Killing Living Things

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Luo Shan was truly afraid. Mo Wen was too powerful and his vicious aura could not even be understood. The fact that he used a Soul attack could be overlooked, and so could the fact that the Soul power was something that only an ancient martial art practitioner with the peak of the Golden Elixir realm could execute. However, he could actually execute such a terrifying fatal attack. Based on the power of it, it was already akin to all the power in a Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner.

Now he was faced with such a peculiar person, Luo Shan could finally experience what life-threatening meant. Earlier, when Mo Wen had mentioned Xu Zhong dying at his hands, Luo Shan had not believed him. However, he now could see it was more than possible for Xu Zhong to die at his hands. If it was not the case, how could the youth have appeared here without Xu Zhong chasing behind, especially now that so much time had passed?

If Luo Shan was a little afraid, those ancient martial art practitioners from Jianyou Sect were even more frightened. In their eyes, Mo Wen looked just like a monster.

Li Shuncai’s body was already trembling. He had never encountered such a strange thing – a youth who was actually so strong.

Elder Luo Shan was already severely injured so would the rest of them fare any better? The ancient martial art practitioners of Jianyou Sect were all feeling insecure. None of them could have had imagined that the tide would turn and that after initially winning, things would actually end up this way.

“Grandson, are you afraid now?” Mo Wen crossed his arms and laughed coldly while mocking with a look like he was a respected ancestor.

Luo Shan remained silent. His body was tense and he felt like he was retreating internally. He did not dare say a word anymore as he was afraid of offending this terrifying youth. It was very possible that Mo Wen would slaughter him in a fit of anger.

“Grandfather has already killed an ancient martial art practitioner with the Golden Elixir realm today. I have already gone against the prohibition of killing, so I don’t want to have to kill any more people. However, you are a descendant who is not filial to your ancestors, and I will have no choice but to teach you a lesson.” Mo Wen sighed. His expression was full of pity, as though he was a living Buddha trying to help the needy.

Luo Shan gritted his teeth and did not say a word. In fact, he did not even dare to act rashly. If he made a break for it now, there was no guarantee of being able to escape from the hands of that youth. He had no choice but to put up with Mo Wen talking down to him like an ancestor to a grandson. It was at least better than losing his life on the spot.

However, Mo Wen’s words had caused Luo Shan to feel hopeful. Could it be that this youth was a pedantic gentleman that did not want to kill too many people? If that was so, did that mean that he was not willing to kill?

Once he ascertained Mo Wen’s abilities, in his fright, Luo Shan could not help but try thinking on the bright side. Currently, he actually really wished that Mo Wen was one of those pedantic people who believed in Buddhism. That way, he would not want to kill so easily.

“Forget it. Considering that there are no enmities between us, I will let you off if you apologize.” Mo Wen tilted his head to think. Then, he made a generous show of letting him go.

Chen Zi looked at Mo Wen oddly. Since when had this lad been so compassionate and merciful? Now he was even hesitant to go against the prohibition of killing. Back in Panli City, he did not hesitate whenever he killed. Meanwhile, Zou Guangbo had got the wrong impression of Mo Wen. He now thought that Mo Wen had a woman’s heart and believed that a person with such a personality would be at a great disadvantage in the world of ancient martial arts.

However, Luo Shan remained hardheaded and his face was as black as the base of a pot. Clearly, it was this youth who had bullied him and humiliated him multiple times. Yet, he actually wanted an apology!

But if he didn’t apologize... He looked at the frightening sword Qi that was hovering by Mo Wen’s body. Then, he thought about that vicious Soul attack. No matter how arrogant and cold his heart was, he still softened. After all, nothing was more important than his own life. He was very afraid of death. The higher one’s Cultivation and the longer one had lived, the more afraid they became of death. That was also the case with him.

“Sorry...” Luo Shan lowered his head slightly and spoke in a soft and meek voice. He looked just like a small and weak daughter-in-law who had been bullied.

Chen Zi hugged Little Meow, almost unable to hold in her laughter. Luo Shan was an elder of Sacred Flame Sect, and a Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner. Now that he had acted this way in front of Mo Wen, if word got out, the entire Green Ancient Mystery Dimension would be raving about it.

Zou Guangbo’s expression was odd as well. The situation had changed so quickly. The tides indeed do turn. Nobody had thought that the great Elder Luo Shan would see such a day.

“Ancestor, do forgive me this once, get lost,” Mo Wen said calmly. He did not want to force Luo Shan any further. If he attacked him too much, he would definitely face a counter-attack. If this old man fought to his death just like Xu Zhong had, things would not necessarily be easy for Mo Wen.

Although he appeared to have the upper hand and seemed to be able to defeat Luo Shan easily, only Mo Wen understood his own circumstances. If he killed Luo Shan immediately, he would have a huge price to pay. If this hadn’t been the case, with his personality, he would not have let the elder of the Sacred Flame Sect off.

Although the Divine Soul Trillion Layers was scary, with his abilities, he could not be distracted when he used the Soul attack. The moment he became distracted, he would fail. Once he used the Divine Soul Trillion Layers against Luo Shan, the Spiritual Profound Sword Qi definitely could not be maintained, and it would dissipate immediately.

Hence, that was also why when he had attacked Luo Shan previously, he had used only normal attacks. He did not use those strong martial art techniques that were too powerful as he was unable to use them. If he could have used them when he was killing Xu Zhong, things would not have been so difficult.

Moreover, although his Soul power was strong, there was also a limit to it. The condition was that he could not use the Divine Soul Trillion Layers too many times. In the great battle with Xu Zhong beforehand, he had already used up a whole half of his Soul power. Now, with Luo Shan, it was difficult to say if he would be able to kill him. To put things bluntly, Mo Wen had shown his might in order to frighten Luo Shan and had then played it by ear. If he tried to kill him, it would not be an easy feat.

It was unexpected but because Luo Shan had never before been confronted by such an odd situation, he had truly been scared.

Mo Wen’s two simple words, “get lost”, were sufficient to drive Luo Shan away without another protest, as if he had given him a royal decree. With a few flashes of his figure, he disappeared completely. He did not even dare to say any savage words and he looked as defeated as a devastated dog.

Those ancient martial art practitioners from Jianyou Sect were rooted to the spot, each of their faces pale. They were extremely fearful as they looked at Mo Wen in terror. It finally dawned on them at that moment that they were actually the lambs to be slaughtered.

“Great ancestor, please spare my life. I was foolish at first and I was not clear in the head. I won’t dare do this again next time. I will immediately pull out of Jianyou Sect and never have anything to do with those crafty people again. I hope you won’t take offense from the mistakes of lower people like me. Just treat me as some insignificant gas like a fart. My life simply has no value at all. Should you end up going against the prohibition of killing just because of me, it would be a grave sin.” Li Shuncai sunk to his knees.

Lin Shuncai’s fragile life was already in the hands of others, so he was definitely afraid. Not just great ancestor, he would be willing to even call him father or grandfather. He could only lament that he did not have such a powerful father and grandfather. The tables had turned completely. Li Shuncai simply wanted to escape alive, and he had entirely forgotten about Chen Zi as he did not dare to harbor any thoughts of her.

The only thing that was of comfort was that this scary youth did not seem to like to kill. In order to abstain from killing, he was even a little pedantic. Otherwise, he would not have let such a strong opponent like Elder Luo Shan off. Hence, Lin Shuncai actually saw a sliver of hope. He felt that if the scary youth did not kill Luo Shan, he would also be spared. He simply had to act pitifully and it was possible that he would be released.

“Hm, not bad, you’re not bad at all.” Mo Wen glanced over at Li Shuncai and nodded his head, seemingly in satisfaction.

Upon seeing that, Li Shuncai felt ecstatic. In his state of happiness, he thought that Mo Wen had decided to release him. Immediately, his legs softened as he knelt down and continuously kowtowed, all the while praising him as a great ancestor who was merciful.

Zou Guangbo licked his lips. Then, he looked at Mo Wen before holding back again. It was as though he had something to say but did not dare to vocalize it. At the moment, there were no advantages to releasing Li Shuncai and the rest. Instead, it would reveal their whereabouts and may even attract stronger abilities from Jianyou Sect to attack them.

However, Mo Wen’s previous actions had been too frightening and brutal. The awe he had for Mo Wen was so strong that he no longer dared to talk in front of Mo Wen, much less interrupt and act without permission by doing things like giving suggestions.

Meanwhile, Chen Zi was hugging the Phantom Wolf Cat, playing with this adorable monstrous beast. She was no longer concerning herself over the situation. With Mo Wen around, she felt exceptionally at ease.

Mo Wen was actually also rather deceptive. If one thought that he was being nice, it was completely wrong. Although she did not know why Mo Wen had released Luo Shan, she knew that Mo Wen was definitely not one who was merciful or held back.

“You should get up,” Mo Wen said calmly.

“Thank you so much great ancestor, thank you so much great ancestor.” Li Shuncai heard him and his heart blossomed. He thought that Mo Wen would definitely release him. He had even considered going so far as to rely on Mo Wen instead. If he had the protection of this youth, Jianyou Sect was worthless.

“A descendent like you is undoubtedly obedient. The problem is that you’re a little spineless. If you continue to live, you would just be embarrassing me. Forget it, I had better just send you on your way so that you won’t be an embarrassment.” Mo Wen sighed and looked as though his expectations had not been met. With a wave of his hand, a golden sword Qi flashed and a huge hole was drilled into the head of Li Shuncai at once.

Li Shuncai’s mouth was wide open and his eyes were huge as he stared towards Mo Wen in shock. Before he died he did not even understood why things had ended up this way. Didn’t this youth have a merciful personality. Wasn’t he against killing? Didn’t he like people calling him great ancestor?

Had he not already won him over? Why had he killed him immediately with a wave of his hand... Just why... Could it be that him being alive was an embarrassment...?

There were so many questions in Li Shuncai’s brain. However, he was no longer able to think about these matters. With a tilt of his head, he crashed to the ground.

“Demon... he is a demon...”

“Run... if you don’t escape there is only death awaiting...”

“Help...”

The surrounding ancient martial art practitioners of Jianyou Sect who still harbored a bit of hope had all become hopeless after seeing Li Shuncai collapsing on the floor and suffering a fate worse than death. Without a care, they darted in all directions. This demonic youth was simply not human. What was all that talk about being merciful! What were those so-called words about not liking to kill living things? It must have all been a very tragic joke.
