10. Shifu’s Special Technique for Setting Things Straight
Xie He spent several days unabashedly. If he was a lazy late stage cancer patient, this would be ideal lifestyle, because he even had someone manipulating his body for him while eating and making love. He also felt really good every day....
?Xie He?Dual cultivation is good, dual cultivation is wonderful. Within it is a fantastic feeling that everyone who tries it will realize. Smile.JPG ?
?444?Host dada, you seem to be really happy recently. O(?_?)O~?
?Xie He?Baby, what has Yun Huaiyu been up to recently??
?444?The locator says that he went back to the Immortal Sect. Now, he’s coming over here. He should arrive soon!?
?Xie He?OK. ? ?
Xie He opened his eyes. Since Mo Cang had turned him into a puppet, he had not been bound again. Only, he still couldn’t move. This was because when Mo Cang left, he would rig him up so that he could not budge. He could only lie in bed obediently. Therefore, Xie He could only move when he was eating or papapa-ing.
Luckily, this wasn’t unbearable for Xie He. This was because he could close his eyes and watch TV. Recently, he had been so free that he had finished the drama he had started before.
Mo Cang came back at night and used his mind to control Xie He. Xie He thus stood up and walked over to him before sitting on his thighs. Both his arms wrapped around Mo Cang’s neck, and he kissed him. A lock of black hair draped over the side of his face. His expression was gentle and agreeable. If you ignored the look of silent forbearance and pain in his eyes, it looked like he was kissing his lover who had returned home.
Mo Cang pushed against the back of Xie He’s head and deepened the kiss. Shortly after, he became aroused, directly pressed Xie He on the bed, and did him once.
The man beneath him complied and accepted him. He took the initiative to hug him.
A dark light flickered through Mo Cang’s eyes. Just like this... when he saw Xie He lying beneath Yun Huaiyu, it had been just like this.
Right now, Shifu was beneath him just like that, asking for him.
He finally owned Shifu completely.
....................................
After doing it, Mo Cang held Xie He. Xie He’s mind was a little fuzzy. His half-closed eyes were a bit dazed....
Mo Cang looked at Xie He like this, and a feeling of tenderness arose for some reason. The man in his arms was so docile. He would not resist or curse him anymore, let alone try to escape and leave him.... Look, as long as you’re obedient, I can treat you very well....
Because I love you.
“Shifu...” A low voice came from Mo Cang’s throat. He kissed Xie He’s hair and tightly held the person in his arms.
Why won’t you love me? If you’re willing to treat me a bit better, to love me a little... I wouldn’t be able to bear to treat you like this.
It was you who forced me to this.
I had no other choice.
?Ding, the target Mo Cang’s Favourability Value +5. The current Favourability Value is 90.?
Mo Cang’s fingers gently touched Xie He’s eyelashes. Those black eyes were covered in a layer of mist. He looked like he was dreaming. There was none of the loathing or disgust that had been present in the past. There was only confusion. If we could continue on like this, how good would that be.... Like this, I can trick myself into believing that you love me.
“Shifu, hug me, OK?” Mo Cang pasted his lips against Xie He’s ears, voice low and soft.
Xie He indeed reached out and hugged him.
A gentle smile appeared in Mo Cang’s eyes. He hugged Xie He in return. He could feel the warmth of the man in his arms. He said, “Shifu, I really like you... even if you massacred my sect, I still like you. Aren’t I hopeless?
“I had wanted to kill you, but I couldn’t. Therefore, I can only wrong you and keep you by my side like this.... Actually, isn’t it quite good? From now on, I’ll take care of you. You don’t have to think, you don’t have to do anything... you just have to stay here by my side.
“If you’re willing, nod, OK?” Mo Cang looked at Xie He.
Xie He nodded, but he did not speak.
A satisfied expression appeared on Mo Cang’s face. He held Xie He and lied down. He also pulled a quilt over to cover their bodies. He shut his eyes with a smile on his face.
The next day, Mo Cang did not leave. He dressed Xie He and combed his hair. His actions were gentle and very patient. At the end, he helped wipe Xie He’s face with water. Although he could have controlled Xie He and have him do all of this himself, he really enjoyed this kind of intimacy. He was willing to help Xie He with all of this.
This was his beloved Shifu. He would cherish him properly.
“Shifu, come with me.” Mo Cang smiled and led Xie He by the hand. They arrived at the herb garden at the back of the Immortal’s Cave.
Xie He took a look. The herb garden had changed drastically. Before, the herbs had been sparse and far apart. Now, it was full of all sorts of spiritual herbs. It wasn’t really pretty, but there were many precious breeds in it. For example, there was the Purple Moon plant he liked to eat. He had originally eaten all of it, but now there was a large expanse of them, swaying in the wind before his eyes.
Mo Cang said, “Shifu, do you like it? If you like it, I can cook them for you every day.”
The expression in Xie He’s eyes changed slightly.
My good disciple is so considerate, ah! Xie He had already thought that he had kept his actions quite secretive. Who would have expected that Mo Cang had caught on. These spiritual herbs were really delicious! However, they were too precious. Moreover, he couldn’t regularly eat them in fear of collapsing his character settings. Who would have thought that Mo Cang would have noticed this?
It must not have been easy to fill this garden with these precious spiritual herbs. Turns out the reason Mo Cang had been gone frequently these days was because he was doing this.
It was just that only having vegetables without meat wouldn’t do, ah. Xie He thought about how he could hint at this.
“Shifu, sit here. I’ll go prepare your meal.” Mo Cang supported Xie He to the stone stool on the side and sat him down. He kissed him and then went to cook.
A moment later, he carried out a few exquisite dishes. He had used top quality spiritual herbs and had used a culinary technique unique to the cultivation world. Xie He felt that he was really too blessed. However, he still had to continue acting and give the other a cold look.
Mo Cang smiled. This time, he didn’t command Xie He to eat on his own. He sat next to him and used his chopsticks to pick up some food and bring it over to Xie He’s lips. He said, “Shifu, try some?”
Xie He found himself opening his mouth and chewing the food before swallowing it, pleased. Mn, he completely preserved the original features of the ingredients. Extremely delicious.
He gave Mo Cang a furious expression, but inwardly, he was satisfied.
Mo Cang didn’t mind and patiently fed Xie He. When he felt that Xie He ought to be full, he finally put his chopsticks down. He did not eat a bite himself. Mo Cang bent down and meticulously licked Xie He’s lips. A moment later, he let go, a smile on his lips. “I’m full.”
Xie He thought, This disciple is impressive. This way of flirting isn’t bad, ah. He’s ruthless when he has to be ruthless and gentle when he has to be gentle. Really can’t judge a book by its cover. He’s not honest at all.
Mo Cang said, “I also captured a few Phoenix Tailed beasts. I’ll cook it for you tomorrow, OK Shifu?
Xie He felt like he was done for. He actually started to like him a bit.
Several days passed in this manner. Every day, Mo Cang would change the way he prepared Xie He’s meals. The meat and vegetables paired together smelled, looked, and tasted great. Together with an abundant sex life, it made Xie He feel like his complexion was getting better and better.
Mo Cang directed and acted in his own play, one in which the two of them were sweethearts in love. He didn’t seem to get tired of playing this.
The two of them were very satisfied with their current situation.
?Xie He?Honestly, I’m starting to like my good disciple more and more. I’m a bit reluctant to give him a lesson.?
?444?Recently, he’s been treating you rather well. O(?_?)O~?
?Xie He?Baby, you have to look through the surface and peer deeper. The Blackening Value hasn’t dropped in the least. Smile.JPG ?
?444?...Shoot, you’re right. _(:???)_?
?Xie He?However, since his Favourability Value is back to 90, it’s about time to teach him how to conduct himself as a person. ? ?
?Xie He?Although my actions are strict and harsh, I do it out of love. As a competent master, I cannot spoil my disciple and fail to guide him properly. ? ?
?444?......?
..........................................
Today, Mo Cang had caught a rare beast and brought it back. He prepared a full table of dishes and then personally fed Xie He. He fed him while watching him with deep affection. Xie He discovered that it was really delicious. It was even better than the Snow Hoof deer of Three Spirits Mountain. He was very pleased, so he threw Mo Cang a cold and angry look.
Just as the two of them were ‘gazing into one another’s eyes lovingly,’ the mountain suddenly began to shake. The prohibitions surrounding the Immortal’s Cave were being attacked and were on the verge of collapse. Mo Cang snapped to attention. There was a loud sound, and then the prohibitions collapsed. Flashes of lights came charging at Mo Cang and Xie He, surrounding them!
This was a group of cultivators dressed in white. The foremost person was Yun Huaiyu, and there were nine people standing behind him. All of them were at least middle stage Divine Connection cultivators!
Yun Huaiyu knew that he could not take on Mo Cang himself. However, he had always been crafty. He did not plan on fighting Mo Cang alone. Therefore, he went back and recruited his subordinates. He said that he had discovered a demonic cultivator who had slaughtered the innocent and had done all sorts of other evil deeds. He commanded this group of people to eradicate the evildoer and uphold their values! These nine people were all in the Divine Connection stage. Furthermore, their joint attack technique was extremely powerful. Today, they had to kill Mo Cang and save Xie He!
Mo Cang could not dodge Yun Huaiyu while holding Xie He. Thus, he could only meet him head on. However, Mo Cang seemed happy and fearless. He flashed Yun Huaiyu a frivolous smile. “You still dare to come?”
Yun Huaiyu gave him an icy look. “Why would I not dare? If you let Ji Xing go now, I can let bygones be bygones.”
When Yun Huaiyu said this, he turned to look at Xie He. Seeing that everything was normal and that the other hadn’t been tormented, he suddenly relaxed. His tone was soft, “Ah Xing, don’t worry. I will definitely save you.”
Xie He looked at Yun Huaiyu, the expression in his eyes complex. However, he didn’t say anything.
Yun Huaiyu thought about what he had done and felt guilty. He thought Xie He was angry and did not discover that something was off about him. He then turned his head and continued to confront Mo Cang.
Mo Cang’s eyes were full of killing intent. Yun Huaiyu actually dared to covet his master! He had let Yun Huaiyu off once. How could he let him off twice? Right now, Shifu was already his puppet. Today, he would let Shifu watch him kill the person he loved! Like this, he would no longer have any thoughts about him!
Yun Huaiyu did not expect that Mo Cang would really let go. He made a signal with his right hand behind his back, and the nine other people immediately surrounded Mo Cang and sent out their flying swords! They formed a killing formation! Yun Huaiyu was the core of this killing formation.
Fortunately, both parties had a tacit understanding. They were both unwilling to hurt Xie He. Therefore, they began to shift away while fighting.
Yun Huaiyu had been prepared. He had the upper hand and came with fatal moves. Mo Cang was in the disadvantageous position. Mo Cang’s eyes turned red, and he suddenly increased his spiritual force, forcing himself to activate his bloodline. For a moment, his power was doubled, and he killed one of the people surrounding him with one stroke!
The formation was broken, and Mo Cang cut through them like a hot knife through butter. He killed two people and then pressed in on Yun Huaiyu!
Yun Huaiyu didn’t think that Mo Cang actually had a hidden trump card. His expression changed greatly. “How is this possible?”
When he said this, Mo Cang slashed his arm!
Seeing that there was no way they could kill Mo Cang today, Yun Huaiyu’s mind whirled. He then rushed over to Xie He! Mo Cang did not expect that Yun Huaiyu would suddenly give up on him and go steal Xie He. He promptly followed after. However, he was a step too late and Yun Huaiyu carried Xie He into his arms!
Mo Cang’s eyes flashed red, and he was about to go kill him but was stopped by Yun Huaiyu’s sect members!
Yun Huaiyu carried Xie He in his arms. He wanted to leave but suddenly realized that something wasn’t right. Xie He did not move, did not resist, and did not speak. He was like a wooden doll. The only abnormality was that there was suffering and a complicated look in his eyes.
“Ah Xing, what’s wrong? Why won’t you speak?” Yun Huaiyu’s eyes were concerned and worried. “Are you hurt?”
Mo Cang could not force his way towards them. He sneered, “Don’t waste your breath. Shifu will not respond to you!”
Yun Huaiyu looked up and gave him a frosty gaze. His face, which had always been warm, seemed to have frozen. “What did you do to him?”
Mo Cang smirked and did not answer. He only said, “Come back.”
Xie He suddenly moved. He pushed Yun Huaiyu away and walked back. Yun Huaiyu went to grab Xie He’s arm at once, but Xie He remained unmoved. He struggled, wanting to break free and return to Mo Cang.
Yun Huaiyu looked at Xie He’s expressionless face and rather rigid movements. Suddenly, a frightening thought appeared in his mind. His voice began to tremble, “Ah Xing?”
Xie He did not respond.
Mo Cang laughed heartily. He said, “He’s my puppet right now. If I want him to live, he’ll live. If I want him to die, he’ll die. Even if you take him away, so what? He can only ever be mine!”
Yun Huaiyu’s expression finally changed. He turned to look at Mo Cang, eyes full of incredulity and anger. “Isn’t he your master? You actually dare to use such a vicious move on him?”
“Why not?” Mo Cang’s voice was cold. “When he massacred my sect, he should have known that such a day would come. It is he who wanted to kill me first.”
Yun Huaiyu shook his head and said, “Impossible. That time, he even gave up on perishing with me for your sake. How could he want to kill you? Moreover, I know him. He would never kill the innocent. There must be a misunderstanding here.”
“Misunderstanding?” Mo Cang sneered. He had already given Xie He the opportunity to confess, but he hadn’t! Therefore, there was no misunderstanding!
Yun Huaiyu looked at Mo Cang, eyebrows furrowing deeply. Mo Cang’s attitude was strange.
Yun Huaiyu suddenly lowered his voice, “Are you sure there isn’t a misunderstanding? I know that you like him. Do not do something rash that you will regret!”
Mo Cang gazed at him coldly. “Regardless of whether or not there is a misunderstanding between us, you have no right to meddle in our affairs.”
Yun Huaiyu’s gaze was fixed on Mo Cang. A long time later, he let go of Xie He and watched helplessly as Xie He returned to Mo Cang’s side. He slowly said, “I will not meddle. Think it over properly. You saw it with your own eyes. Think of whether he had truly wanted to kill you.”
Things had already gotten to this point. Yun Huaiyu had no way to take Xie He back with him. What might happen instead was that he would anger Mo Cang and cause him to order Xie He to commit suicide. Therefore, he had no choice but to let go.
He had come too late.
Yun Huaiyu’s expression was calm, but his heart was sinking as if it were a huge rock. This was his fault. If he had trusted Xie He back then, if he hadn’t acted against him, the two of them would be unfettered on their road to cultivation right now.
Unfortunately, he had made a mistake. One wrong step led to many other wrong steps.
He had repented too late.
“Everyone, stop,” Yun Huaiyu ordered his subordinates. He then cast another glance at Mo Cang and slowly said, “You can take him away. Although I don’t know what grievances are between you two, Ah Xing has always made a clear distinction between those he liked and did not like. He would never do such a demented thing. Think it over thoroughly. I hope that you will treat him well.”
He gave Xie He a profound look. There was a great deal of warmth and affection in his eyes. He then turned and left.
For the sake of Xie He’s safety, he would let go for now. Until he could undo the puppet technique, he could not provoke Mo Cang. Otherwise, Mo Cang would certainly hurt Xie He. At that time, it would be too late for regrets.
Right now, what he could do was stabilize Mo Cang’s state of mind while creating a new plan.
Mo Cang watched Yun Huaiyu leave. The anger on his face did not dissipate at all. The anger and jealousy he had suppressed to the bottom of his heart had bubbled up again! He grabbed Xie He and left. He took Xie He with him and flew several hundred li, arriving at his own secret cave. Only then did he throw Xie He to the ground.
He paced a few steps around the stone room, eyes bloodshot. Even the whites of his eyes were red.
Anger, fury, and jealousy all battered inside his chest.
Yun Huaiyu’s expression, tone, and gaze incessantly replayed in his mind. Why did Yun Huaiyu understand Xie He so well? Why was he so sure Xie He wasn’t that kind of person? Was it because something had happened between them that no one else knew about? And what did Mo Cang have? Why didn’t he have anything?
He wanted to pretend that nothing had happened. Weren’t they doing well before? Just the two of them at peace with no one to disturb them. Why did Yun Huaiyu have to come and remind him that everything was fake?
At this moment, the violent emotions in his chest could not be suppressed.
An angry smile appeared on Mo Cang’s lips. He pulled at Xie He’s hair and said in a frigid tone, “Are you really happy? Your old lover can’t let you go. He came to save you.
“He even tried to speak on your behalf because he was afraid that I’d hurt you.” Mo Cang’s eyes were ice-cold, “Actually, it’s quite easy to clear up whether or not there has been a misunderstanding....”
He looked at Xie He. The reason in his eyes was slowly engulfed by madness.
He actually had a way to know about Xie He and Yun Huaiyu’s past. He could find out whether Xie He had killed his sect. He had always had a way to find out about what he didn’t know before...
Right now, he could no longer control the insane jealousy and hate in his chest. He didn’t want to endure anymore.
He wanted to know everything!
Why did he have to suffer such torment in ignorance?!
Mo Cang gripped the back of Xie He’s head and gazed into the other’s eyes. A cruel smile appeared on his lips. “Shifu, I know that you won’t tell me anything, but still, I will find out....”
As long as he used the soul searching technique, he would know everything. This person’s soul and body were both in the palm of his hands!
Mo Cang’s nails dug into Xie He’s skin. Blood trickled out. A light seemed to flicker in Mo Cang’s eyes. His own soul attacked and invaded Xie He’s mind!
?444?Warning! Psychic attack blocked!?
?Xie He?He can’t reach me, right, Baby??
?444?Yes. We systems are installed with an ability to protect our hosts’ souls. All psychic attacks are useless against you. That’s why the previous hypnotic spell was also useless. As long as you don’t want him to, Mo Cang will be unable to look at your memories! \(???)/?
?Xie He?Then I can choose to let him see a portion of my memories??
?444?Yes. (?v?)?
?Xie He?Very good. Let him see Ji Xing’s memories. ?
?444?Yi, you want to let him see it??
?Xie He?Yes, haven’t I been saying that I had to properly straighten things out with him? Right now is a suitable time for it. Smile.JPG?
?Xie He?Although my disciple’s cultivation has increased rapidly, his temperament is not steady enough. If his cultivation rises too quickly, he’ll face internal demons. Therefore, it’s easy to become irascible. He will certainly lose his reasoning and become a crazed demon if he continues on like this. I am his life and spiritual guide as well as a master who has a sense of responsibility and cares for his disciple. Therefore, I have a duty to help him get rid of his demons so that he can grow up healthy. Let him see Ji Xing’s memories. Once he sees them, he’ll wake up. ? ?
?444?......(?o?) Oh.?
Mo Cang gazed into Xie He’s eyes, motionless. Suddenly, his perspective changed.
He had turned into Ji Xing.
In the hazy, dream-like memory, a young Ji Xing and a young Yun Huaiyu grew up together and entered the Immortal Sect sect together.... The two of them had always been very good friends. Moreover, he could see the feelings Ji Xing had for Yun Huaiyu and how he took care of the other in all sorts of ways.
Mo Cang was extremely jealous. He continued to watch until they reached the Dongyang mountain range. Here, Yun Huaiyu had actually pushed Ji Xing down into an abyss for the sake of the Holy Fruit! Ji Xing had liked such a despicable, vile person!
The images then changed from scene to scene.... Mo Cang was angry and jealous of the love and hate between Ji Xing and Yun Huaiyu. His eyes were covered in a red light. Finally, he saw Ji Xing come to the mountain village Mo Cang had resided in in the past.
Ji Xing had only been passing by but had been plotted against by someone. The people that tried to kill Ji Xing had actually been Mo Cang’s fellow sect members!
Mo Cang’s expression changed. So it was his sect members that had acted first back then? A bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart. However, he still grit his teeth and watched on....
Ji Xing had not been assassinated but had instead killed his way into the nest. He was invincible the whole way. Finally, he faced off against the Sect Master, who had also been Mo Cang’s previous master.
The Sect Master had tried to escape upon losing but was captured by Ji Xing. When he was about to be killed, he suddenly knelt on the ground and implored Ji Xing for mercy. He said that he had a secret that he could offer to Ji Xing. He only asked that Ji Xing let him off and spare him! He said that he had passed through a home in the past and had unexpectedly discovered that the son of that family actually possessed the extremely rare Heavenly Spiritual Vein. Thus, he had not hesitated to murder the child’s entire family and steal him away. Over the last few years, he had meticulously raised him as his disciple. When the child was older, he would sacrifice the boy and make him into a pill before eating him! The Heavenly Spiritual Vein was extremely rare. Whether it was to steal the body containing it or to refine it into a pill, the boy was an extremely valuable product. He was willing to offer this child to Ji Xing as long as Ji Xing spared him!
However, Ji Xing didn’t care about his plea at all. He directly ended this contemptible, nasty character’s life with one slash and then killed all of the demonic cultivators in the sect!
In the end, he raised his sword in front of that child.
Mo Cang stared fixedly at his young self. This memory overlapped with his own.... He looked at that young face full of fear and hatred. He recalled that he had actually thought of his true enemies as his family... and his head suddenly began to hurt!
Mo Cang watched Ji Xing go over. This time, he could see the helplessness and pity in Ji Xing’s eyes. Ji Xing looked at the child’s scared and hateful expression, raised his hand, and then sealed the child’s memory. He then brought him back with him.
He had also seen the struggle and hesitation in Ji Xing’s eyes. Perhaps he had also been tempted to take over his body. Because he would soon die... he really needed this body but in the end, he had not done so. He let the boy grow and become strong....
Mo Cang also saw the occasional gentle gazes Ji Xing would show towards him when Mo Cang himself had been unaware. He also saw how Ji Xing had prepared all sorts of resources for Mo Cang to cultivate with. Ji Xing was not good at expressing himself, but he had seriously considered Mo Cang to be his disciple.
In the end, he had given up on taking over Mo Cang’s body. He had given up on his own chance to live a long life and achieve the Great Dao.
This was his Shifu... Ji Xing.
Mo Cang could no longer continue watching. He hugged his head and let out a mournful howl. This was the truth... this was the truth....
He had thought that his enemies were his family and his family was his enemy.
In the end, he had hurt his most beloved master... hurt the person that cared for and loved him.
The red light in Mo Cang’s eyes receded... his rationality finally returned to him. His eyes no longer held the cold, dark, and bitter resentment from the past. There was only distress. He was like a helpless child who was at a loss.
Just like he had been back then.
He held Ji Xing. The man in his arms had fainted. Because Ji Xing’s power had been exhausted and his soul had been greatly injured, his originally-black hair had slowly turned white.
Mo Cang stared at Xie He in a daze and suddenly coughed out blood.
?Ding, the target Mo Cang’s Favourability Value +5, Blackening Value -100. The current Favourability Value is 95.?
?Xie He?I said that he’d regain his calm. The effectiveness of seeing things with his own eyes is so good. Smile.JPG?
?444?......_?
The author has something to say:
Honestly, I had accepted that the last chapter might be locked. Angels, you don’t have to feel regret. Because there was no smut, it was just a scene of bloody slaughter, that’s all. _(:???)_I’m tired. This author has worked hard to edit the text. I don’t know where I went wrong. I’ll try to release it tomorrow...cries. QAQ
Eve: The poor author. I hate the river crabs so much. Not only do they prevent smut, they aren’t even effective. Sometimes they lock chapters that don’t have any smut. It’s ridiculous.
sere: so most of the angst/turning point chapters are like a sword stabbing your heart... Ji Xing’s story is that sword turning after being stabbed in... big sad for Ji Xing and his misplaced trust T.T
kitty: a;lsdkfj yeah this is the first time we actually hear the whole story behind Ji Xing picking up Mo Cang so it hurts so bad when combined with all the bad stuff we’ve seen Mo Cang do to him...
