The Way of The Dao

Chapter 868 So You Have Found Another Wife?

"W-what do you think you're doing? If you kill me you will die too!"

Seeing what Qin Xuzi wanted to do, the young master Guiyan lost his composure and screamed out full of despair.

If Qin Xuzi really wanted to kill him, then his last card would be useless. As long as he did not kill Qin Xuzi, he would have her life in his hands and thus a way to escape.

Right now, his cultivation had been sealed and he did not have the strength to be able to defend himself, which left him at Qin Xuzi's mercy as he was a weak mortal.

But although he could kill Qin Xuzi with a thought, doubt filled his head. If he killed Qin Xuzi, then his chance of escape would be lost, but if he didn't, then Qin Xuzi would kill him...

What did he have to do in order to escape?

"Sister Xuzi!"

Before Qin Xuzi could bring the sword close to young master Guiyan's neck, Mu Shen stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her slender body.

"B-brother Shen?" Qin Xuzi was stunned and a furious blush painted her face as she felt Mu Shen's arms gently embrace her, feeling her heart begin to pound furiously.

"It's okay! We'll find a way to free you!" Mu Shen tightened his arms even tighter around Qin Xuzi's weak body.

Qin Xuzi was somewhat surprised and nervous, shyness filling her body as she felt Mu Shen hugging her so affectionately.

As if that wasn't enough, Hu Wenxin, Deng Xie and Fu Ling also came over and hugged Qin Xuzi, joining Mu Shen.

"Sisters..." Qin Xuzi whispered in a daze, realizing that these women's expressions were filled with tears of sadness, but with a look of reluctance to give up.

"What do you want in exchange for you breaking Sister Xuzi's contract!"

Mu Shen took a deep breath and walked towards young master Guiyan, his voice deepening as he tried to contain his anger so as not to kill him.

If he could get this bastard to release Qin Xuzi, then he wouldn't mind losing some money.

Looking at Mu Shen's expression, but knowing that he really couldn't do anything, the young master Guiyan let out a sigh inwardly and smiled slightly, with the impudence coming back to his face

"Give me everything you have in your storage ring and let me go!" The young master Guiyan didn't hesitate and said everything he had planned in this short period of time, adding, "If you really care about her then you'll have no problem getting rid of your belongings!"

The young master Guiyan grinned cruelly, figuring that he would soon be safe. As long as he got out of the capital, then he could go to the Guiyan family's hidden shelters to prepare his next plans.

No matter how long it takes, he will take revenge on this bastard and make him taste hell by letting him see by raping those women accompanying him!

"Once I leave the capital, I will undo the contract with her!" The young master Guiyan sneered. This was his trump card, as long as he doesn't get rid of her, his life is assured.

"How do I know you won't break your promise after escaping?" Mu Shen's gaze turned dark, but he had no choice.

Although he might as well ask Ling Tian for help, Mu Shen did not want to depend on him forever and wanted to take care of these matters on his own. If he didn't, then he would not be a worthy man who stood up for himself!

"You have no choice! Besides, that friend of yours can't do anything to me! If I feel that he is pursuing me, even if it is a suspicion, she will die!"

The young master Guiyan had not forgotten about Ling Tian, so he was more worried about him than Mu Shen. As long as it was Mu Shen chasing after him, he wouldn't be so worried, but with a world powerhouse like Ling Tian, the young master Guiyan would not be able to rest easy.

"Brother Shen, don't do it!"

Qin Xuzi heard everything they said and took Mu Shen's hand while shaking her head.

"It's alright, sister Xuzi. As long as it's for your welfare, it doesn't matter if I have to give everything I have."

However, Mu Shen shook his head and patted her small head. A smile graced his face.

Qin Xuzi couldn't help but let out several tears, knowing that she could never repay Mu Shen's kindness.

"If you dare to break your promise, I will seek you out and find you! No matter where you hide!" Mu Shen looked coldly full of killing intent at the man.

The young master Guiyan couldn't help but shiver at the sight of his gaze, but he swallowed his words and nodded slightly.

"Here."

Mu Shen took off the storage ring and threw it without hesitation.

The young master Guiyan's gaze flashed when he saw Mu Shen's action, he stretched out his hands and tried to catch his storage ring.

"Hey, brother, aren't you being too naive again?"

But before Mu Shen's storage ring fell into young master Guiyan's hands, a somewhat sarcastic but amused voice was heard.

The storage ring froze in mid-air, as if grabbed by a mysterious force, before returning back to Mu Shen's hands.

"Brother!"

Mu Shen was startled when he saw Ling Tian appear near them.

The young master Guiyan's expression turned dark and desperate again when he saw Ling Tian. He wanted to escape before Ling Tian returned!

But he soon took a deep breath and calmed down. As long as he didn't try anything stupid, Ling Tian would also know that it would be risky to do something to him as well, especially if he was really close to Mu Shen.

The young master Guiyan couldn't help but feel more envious of Mu Shen knowing that a world powerhouse called him brother.

"I told you that these kinds of bastards will always be bastards at the end of their lives, even if they can save their lives and swear to the heavens that they will change, they will look for a way to come back for you. If you are not sure, then I will give you a hand."

Ling Tian waved his hand casually and the young master Guiyan's body was unexpectedly lifted as a cultivation essence giant hand materialized from him, placing him in front of Ling Tian and Mu Shen.

"N-no! You can't kill me! If you kill me, she'll die too! A-and you don't want that, do you?"

The young master Guiyan cried out again in despair, feeling that his heart couldn't hold out for long as he felt terror and anguish several times in a row. His gaze glanced at Ling Tian and then at Mu Shen.

"Brother! He has a master and slave contract with sister Xuzi! It is a soul contract! If you kill him, sister Xuzi will also die!"

Mu Shen rushed to stop Ling Tian before he killed the young master Guiyan. If he didn't clear up the matter, Ling Tian might go ahead and kill him without giving him the chance.

"Y-yes! If you kill me, she will die!" The young master Guiyan smiled somewhat ugly as he listened to Mu Shen, hoping that Ling Tian would not kill without reasoning. He still wanted to live!

"Sister Xuzi? So you have found another wife?" Ling Tian raised his eyebrows with interest, his gaze shifted from Mu Shen to Qin Xuzi with a curious and amused glance.

Mu Shen averted his gaze somewhat uncomfortably and nervously as if he was caught doing something embarrassing, seeing that Ling Tian was so straightforward. Meanwhile, Qin Xuzi could not help but blush and be filled with shyness upon hearing Ling Tian at the thought that she was Mu Shen's wife, so she lowered her gaze, even a burst of joy and hope could not help but arise in her heart.

"That's why we can't kill this bastard..." Mu Shen took a deep breath and looked at Ling Tian again.

If it wasn't for Qin Xuzi's life, Mu Shen would have already killed the young master Guiyan long ago!

"It's just small a soul contract, nothing to worry about!"

Ling Tian snorted slightly as the next moment a powerful soul spiritual force surrounded the young master Guiyan and Qin Xuzi.

"Don't do it! I'll kill her!"

Seeing that Ling Tian wanted to try something, the young master Guiyan screamed like crazy and tried to break the soul contract to kill Qin Xuzi. If he was going to die, then he would kill Qin Xuzi first to relieve some of the resentment in his heart!

However, to the young master Guiyan's horror, the small force in his mind that had control over Qin Xuzi's soul did not respond when an external force caught him.

"If you had a consciousness sea maybe you would have a chance, but still in front of me it's useless!" Ling Tian sneered as he saw the young master Guiyan's desperate attempt to crush Qin Xuzi's piece of soul.

The sound of a sheet of paper echoed in the place, as the next moment a faint energy shot out from the young master Guiyan's body and headed towards Qin Xuzi.

"Huh?" Qin Xuzi was stunned as she felt something important return to her, even feeling more alive and aware of her surroundings. She brought her hands over her chest, above her heart area and felt that she could no longer feel that horrible feeling of death that she had for as long as she could remember.

She felt... she felt free finally!

"How can that be?" The young master Guiyan muttered in despair, watching his last trump card being eliminated.

The master and slave contract that had been imposed on Qin Xuzi by force was gone!

Ling Tian looked at Mu Shen with clear intent in his eyes.

Mu Shen was somewhat stunned when he finally let out a sigh of relief and tightened the strength in his hand that held the sword.

Without hesitation, the cultivation essence furiously poured onto the sword and the next second it was swung towards the young master Guiyan who was still trapped in midair.

The young master Guiyan's pupils shrank, terror and despair visible on his face.

Mu Shen swung his arms mercilessly, with a diagonal swing of his sword slicing the young master Guiyan's body into two parts as he let out all his pent-up powerlessness and rage.

Qin Xuzi was not the only woman that the young master Guiyan had mistreated and abused, so Mu Shen decided to kill and avenge him for the sake of those women who had been unjustly killed by him.

The body split in half of the young master Guiyan fell to the ground afterwards, with no signs of life in them, while his face still showed the horror and fear.

"Are you finished?" Ling Tian looked at Mu Shen.

"Yes, brother, thank you..." Mu Shen took a deep breath after killing the young master Guiyan and looked at Ling Tian with a grateful expression.

Seeing that there was no more left to do, Ling Tian smiled slightly, with the annoyance of not having retrieved another memory finally diminishing.

It had to be said that in the Guiyan family treasury there were several powerful treasures and cultivation resources that were not very common!

Of course Ling Tian had plundered all the resources from the Guiyan family's residence!

After casting another glance around again, as if waiting for something for a couple of minutes, Ling Tian frowned and shook his head.

"Then let's go."

Ling Tian nodded and enveloped everyone with the aura of the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures, released his perception and they all disappeared through space mobilization.
