Mo Lingling seemed not to hear it and continued to laugh, laughing so hard that she was bent over and crying.
Looking at the somewhat crazy Mo Lingling, Mo Yuanming felt nothing. He adopted her for his own selfish reasons, and there was not much real affection between them.
From another perspective, although they are not father and daughter, they are quite similar. They are both selfish and calculating.
"Father, this may be the last time I call you that." The laughter stopped abruptly, and she looked at the man in front of her with a smile on her face, revealing an indescribable complex emotion. "I don't know if you have any last wishes before you die. After all, we are father and daughter. If I can do it, I will help you fulfill it."
"Lingling, I know you are smart. I also know that you have accumulated a lot of strength for yourself over the years by relying on the relationship between the Mo family and Lingxi Palace. But fake is fake after all, and truth cannot be hidden. You are a smart child, and you should know what I am talking about."
"I know, of course I know, and I also know that it is better to strike first than to gain the upper hand." The smile gradually faded, and his eyes became cold and bloodthirsty.
"Father, goodbye!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Yuanming's pupils suddenly dilated and he fell to the ground without saying a word. Until his death, he probably never thought that he would eventually die at the hands of his adopted daughter.
"No matter what leverage you have over me, as long as you die, everything will be over. Isn't it..."
As she walked away step by step, there was a commotion behind her.
"Oh no! The prisoner committed suicide out of fear of punishment. Someone come quickly!"
That was the jailer's shouting, followed by the sound of anxious footsteps, and everything was settled. Stepping out of the door of the Law Enforcement Department, Mo Lingling left without looking back...
With the death of Mo Yuanming, the Mo family had no way to defend themselves. Rebellion became an established fact. All direct descendants were sentenced to death, and all collateral descendants and related relatives were exiled to remote areas of the island, doing hard labor for the rest of their lives until they died.
This result was not what Mo Lingling wanted, because she knew that the fall of the Mo family would do more harm than good to her. But she had no choice, they forced her to make a choice between herself and the Mo family. If a person does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth.
"What do you want to see me for?" Looking at Mo Feng who was about to die tomorrow, Mo Lingling said indifferently.
"Lingling, why, why did you want to destroy the Mo family?"
"Brother, have you made a mistake? It was your father's fault for privately manufacturing arms, and he brought about his own destruction. I destroyed the Mo family? I really don't know where this statement comes from?" For Mo Feng, although there was no love, there was still some friendship as childhood sweethearts, so she agreed to his request to see her for the last time before he died.
“But you can’t put the Mo family to death. After all, the Mo family has raised you for so many years, and I have always... always treated you as a family member. Why are you so heartless?” The death of his father and the current situation of the Mo family almost crushed Mo Feng, who had not yet fully grown up. Although everything has been settled, he still cannot accept it in his heart.
"Everyone thinks that I am the adopted daughter of the Mo family, and later became a disciple of Lingxi Palace. However, they don't know that my adoptive father was willing to adopt me because he knew that I caught the eye of the Palace Master of Lingxi Palace. It's just mutual use, and there is no such thing as a favor. As for you, before this incident happened, I don't deny that you were very good to me. But when faced with the choice between my family and myself, didn't you resolutely choose the former?"
"No, it's not like that. I don't want to..." Mo Feng's face changed drastically when he heard Mo Lingling's words, as if the scar he was most reluctant to face was uncovered. He panicked and feared and dodged, and even wanted to hide in a corner at this moment, so that he could pretend that nothing had happened.
"It doesn't matter what you thought at the time. I was the one who was abandoned anyway. But I don't blame you, because if it were me, I would make the same choice. If a man doesn't work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. It's understandable. Well, I don't want to discuss this topic with you. I just want to tell you that I have not let the Mo family down. I just assisted the Law Enforcement Department in investigating the case and cleared myself of suspicion. Well, I have fulfilled your last wish, you can go on your way with peace of mind."
"No, you can't leave, Mo Lingling, you can't leave. You have to help the Mo family, you have to help the Mo family, don't leave!"
Even though Mo Feng shouted heartbreakingly, Mo Lingling remained unmoved and left without looking back.
Mo Feng kept shouting until he could no longer see Mo Lingling, and then he stopped.
His eyes were lifeless, his shoulders drooped, and he sat on the ground weakly. His head was slightly tilted up, and he stared blankly into the distance with unfocused eyes. There seemed to be a crystal in his eyes, and a drop of transparent liquid fell from the corner of his eyes, containing despair.
He knew that everything was over. He was finished, the Mo family was finished, and his life was finished...
The Lord of Lingxi Palace also received news about the Mo family. After listening to Jianxin's report, he said nothing.
"Palace Master, would you like me to send someone to..."
The Palace Master raised his hand and waved, "No need, the Law Enforcement Department will not wrongly accuse someone." What's more, it was a family.
"Give orders that no one in Lingxi Palace is allowed to discuss this matter, especially after Lingling returns."
"I understand." The Palace Master still had feelings for the Young Palace Master. Even though he was angry about the previous incident and wanted to sever the master-disciple relationship, he softened his heart after learning about the Mo family's affairs.
"Send someone to follow Lingling secretly to prevent anything from happening to her."
At this moment, the communication card on Jianxin's waist suddenly lit up. Jianxin glanced at the Palace Master, who waved his hand, indicating that he could do whatever he wanted.
Kenshin took out the message card and frowned after seeing the words on it.
"What is it?"
After hesitating for a moment, Jianxin stepped forward and whispered a few words in front of the palace master.
"Go ahead."
"I'll take my leave."
The towering palace is sacred and solemn. Its all white color shows its holiness. The guarding soldiers are wearing silver-white armor and carefully looking around. No movement can escape their eyes and ears.
A figure stood on the high wall, looked down at them, then turned and entered the palace.
Silently, no soldier noticed him.
"My respected God, you are finally back." An old man who was meditating suddenly opened his eyes, stood up, lowered his head, knelt on the ground, leaned forward, almost lying on the ground, and greeted the visitor without even raising his head.
The door suddenly opened, a gust of wind swept past, and a man walked in on the light, standing alone in the world.
"I have only survived a catastrophe, but someone is already restless. They are secretly trying to trip me up. Although they have not become very capable over the years, they have become much braver." The ethereal voice was long and distant, like a chant from ancient times, neither happy nor sad, but resounding. Every character that fell was like a mountain pressing down on one's head, making one feel breathless.
"This old slave is terrified, my god calms down."
"I know your loyalty, but there are some people who need to be dealt with. Otherwise, I'm afraid that no one will believe in me anymore."
"I will investigate immediately and eliminate these daring people for the Lord God."
"This god went through tribulation in order to find the goddess. Now the goddess has returned, but her divine power has not yet awakened. Send people to protect her secretly. Remember not to offend her." After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved in the air. A figure suddenly appeared in the air. The person reflected in the shadow with a smile on her face was Xia Ling'er.
"This is the mortal body of the goddess, look carefully."
The old man raised his head cautiously and glanced at the shadow, then quickly said, "I've made note of this, God, rest assured."
"Remember, you must protect her and don't let her suffer any injustice." The God warned again with a dim look in his eyes.
"I've made note of this."
The original light disappeared, and the air became light again. After a long time of no movement, the old man slowly raised his head, and the figure of the God was no longer in front of him. The old man sat on the ground with his hands on the ground and took a long breath.
After leaving, the God went directly to the farmhouse where Ling'er was. With a wave of his hand, everything around him was frozen. He went straight through the wall into the house and stood beside the bed, looking at the sleeping Ling'er.
Because of the spell, Ling'er was unconscious at the moment. He walked to her window and stretched out his hand to touch Ling'er's cheek. When he was only 0.1 centimeter away, he stopped. He bent his fingers and slowly pulled away from her.
"This time, I won't let you get hurt again."
Suddenly Ling'er's eyelashes trembled, and the God immediately disappeared into the room. The next second, Ling'er opened her tightly closed eyes, sat up suddenly, and looked into the distance.
It was strange, why did she feel that there was someone there just now? Could it be that she was too tired these days and had a nightmare
After making sure that there was nothing unusual around him, he lay down again and fell asleep.
“This girl, she is so alert even after I cast a spell, she is really clever.” The God standing on the roof said to himself, and then disappeared into the dark night.
After the destruction of the Mo family, Mo Lingling had no one to rely on except Lingxi Palace.
"Young Palace Master, should we go back to the palace?" Chunying looked at Mo Lingling who had been sitting there for a long time, and finally couldn't help but speak.
Ever since the young palace master went to the law enforcement department to meet Master Feng, she has been sitting there blankly, not talking or eating, just sitting there blankly. Seeing her like this, Chunying was a little worried.
"No."
Perhaps she didn't expect Mo Lingling to speak, Chunying was slightly stunned and said: "But now, besides the Palace Master, who else can you rely on?"
Chunying's words made Mo Lingling suddenly turn around and stare at her in a daze, her eyes fixed on her without moving. Chunying was terrified and she knelt down immediately.
"Young Palace Master, please forgive me." Although he didn't know what he had done wrong, it was always right to admit his mistakes first.
"Do you think that I have been relying on others for so many years? Haha, that's right. You think that everything I have today is due to the Mo family and Lingxi Palace."
"No, no, no, that's not it. That's not what I meant. What I meant was..."
"It doesn't matter what it means, because you will soon know that I have never relied on others. If you rely on the mountain, the mountain will fall; if you rely on the sea, the sea will dry up. In this world, you can't rely on anyone except yourself!"
"Yes, yes, Young Palace Master is right, Young Palace Master is right, I will obey you in everything."
Dream Island seems to be particularly unstable recently. The Mo family arms case has just come to an end, and then Fenggu also ran into problems.
It is said that someone anonymously sent an image stone to the court of the Law Enforcement Department. The image stone recorded nothing but the bodies of the recently missing people and the murderers who captured them.
"Who is this person? His methods are so vicious." The video clearly recorded that a man in a black robe cast a spell to wrap a living person in extremely cold ice in an instant. After being frozen, the person's eyeballs were still moving, but the body was enduring the biting cold. This was simply a living torture, and it would be more comfortable to just die.
"But this is not right. The bodies we found were all drained of their blood and energy and died of exhaustion, not from freezing." The law enforcement captain said in confusion while looking at the video.
"But these people are real. They are definitely the ones who are missing."
"That means these people didn't die in his hands. He was only responsible for capturing them and then bringing them back to the real murderer. This also explains why he didn't freeze them to death immediately, but only used ice to restrict their freedom."
Carefully watching every move in the image, he suddenly caught something. The law enforcement captain pointed at the image stone excitedly and said, "That person... That person is Wuming."
Wuming, a sorcerer who had long been dead in the eyes of the world, was a wicked sorcerer. His original name was Wang Ming, and he was an unfavored bastard of the Wang family. He felt resentful because he had been ignored for a long time, so he secretly practiced sorcery and even cooperated with hostile forces, bringing great disaster to the family. He was later expelled, changed his name to Wuming, and exiled to the wilderness.
The wilderness is a forbidden land that no one dares to set foot in. Anyone who is driven there is doomed to death.
"I never thought he was still alive."
"Give the order to conduct a comprehensive search for Wuming's whereabouts immediately. No details can be missed!"
"yes."
The man smiled as he watched the law enforcement captain leave. Not only had the Mo family arms case been solved, but there had also been new progress in the missing persons case that had been giving him a headache. It seemed that his luck had really turned recently, and he was about to soar to the sky.
At the corner of the country road, two women looked stealthily toward a farmhouse not far away from time to time.
"Young Palace Master... No, Miss, look. This is where I am investigating." Before, the Miss liked people calling her Young Palace Master the most, but before coming out this time, she specifically instructed people to call her Miss outside. I guess the Miss also wanted to better hide her identity.
Following the direction Chunying pointed, all I saw was a simple farmhouse. Would that woman really live here
"Miss, are you awake?" As Zi Xi's voice sounded, the tightly closed door opened from the inside, and a woman gradually appeared in the shadows. The sunlight bathed her purple skirt, gradually moving up, and a pair of purple eyes were reflected in Mo Lingling's eyes.
Looking at the familiar face of the woman, Mo Lingling took two steps back in a daze.
Chunying immediately stepped forward upon seeing this, supported her, and asked worriedly, "Miss, are you okay?"
After calming down, Mo Lingling looked at Chunying and said, "It's okay, let's go."
She seemed like nothing happened, but Chunying, who supported her later, knew how nervous she was at that moment. She was so nervous that the weight of her whole body was placed on the arm that supported her.
"Are you sure she has appeared in Lingxi Palace?" he asked calmly as he walked.
Chunying quickly replied, "Yes, Miss, I am sure."
Could it be that she has already met the master? If the master already knows about the existence of this daughter, then it would be difficult for her to attack her directly. But she just checked the surroundings and found no forces belonging to Lingxi Palace. Could it be that their relationship is not what she guessed? Or is it because the master has lost his memory and has not remembered it completely? No matter which situation is, it is not good for her. She must get rid of this woman as soon as possible to eliminate future troubles.
I thought she was just a powerless little woman who suddenly appeared. I never thought that she spent a lot of money to send out three waves of assassins but all returned in vain. Looking at Chunying who returned with bad news again, Mo Lingling was so angry that her face turned green.
"A bunch of trash!" He can't even handle the problem with a little girl, yet he calls himself a master. What a good-for-nothing.
"Miss, please don't be angry. Don't let your body get hurt."
"If you don't want to make me angry, don't fail again and again. You spent so much money on it, what a waste!"
"Miss, you can't blame them entirely for this matter. It's not that they didn't try their best, but they all went there and never came back." As for the news of the failure, she couldn't wait for them to come back and report, so she sent people to inquire.
"All dead?"
