Chapter 104 I Don’t Want to Die, But I Can’t Die

He Zhiran stopped what he was doing and looked at Mo Jiuye.

After all, the original owner was not aware of the intrigues in the court, and the truth of this matter had to be determined by Mo Jiuye.

Mo Jiuye stepped forward and said, "You said that King Heng sent you to assassinate me. Do you have any evidence?"

The man in black was determined to die at this moment, so he naturally would not hide it.

"The person who just died in front of me was the team leader. He had the token given by King Heng."

Hearing this, He Zhiran flashed out of the space and searched the bodies of the several men in black who had just been killed by him.

Sure enough, she found a silver plate on one of them, with the word "Heng" clearly engraved on it.

She returned to the space with the token and handed it to Mo Jiuye.

Mo Jiuye took the sign and looked at it, then nodded to He Zhiran.

He Zhiran immediately understood and pulled the man in black out of the space again.

Even though he was facing an enemy, He Zhiran kept his word and killed the man in black with one blow.

Returning to the space again, she asked Mo Jiuye: "Do you also have a grudge against King Heng?"

Mo Jiuye smiled self-deprecatingly.

“Everyone in the court knows that Nan Qi and I have had a deep friendship since childhood, so the other princes naturally regard me as a thorn in their side.

Nan Heng didn't know that a rift had developed between Nan Qi and me, and he was worried that I would one day return to the court, so it was understandable that he wanted to eliminate me while I was alone and helpless."

After hearing this, He Zhiran understood.

It is estimated that the Mohist school was confiscated and exiled, which was not without the instigation of King Heng.

"If that's the case, Nan Heng will definitely send more assassins if he fails to kill you the first time. It seems that we really can't let our guard down in the future."

This is also what Mo Jiuye was worried about.

It would be easy for him to deal with anything alone. At worst, he would die together with those people.

But the Mo family has a large family of children, and now he has a woman whom he wants to protect for the rest of his life. Mo Jiuye doesn't want to die, and he can't die.

"If I want to stop Nan Heng from attacking me again, it would be best if I could spread the news that Nan Qi and I had a falling out."

He Zhiran nodded.

"This is indeed a good idea. Nan Heng is simply concerned about your relationship with Nan Qi. If he believes that you have broken up with Nan Qi, he will surely relax his vigilance against you.

Moreover, he lost so many assassins in this assassination attempt, so he will probably think twice before sending anyone else out."

This is indeed the truth, but both of them are a little troubled. How can they make Nan Heng believe that he has broken up with Nan Qi?

After much thought, neither of them could come up with a reasonable solution.

Thinking about how their families might be worried about them, they decided that it was more important to leave here first.

Considering that Mo Jiuye's injuries made it difficult for him to move around, He Zhiran decided to let him stay in the space for a while and go out alone to find a way out.

At first, Mo Jiuye disagreed. He was worried that He Zhiran might encounter danger in this wilderness without anyone to help him.

He Zhiran promised him that if he encountered danger, he would immediately hide in the space.

Thinking of the magic of space, Mo Jiuye felt somewhat relieved.

After reminding her to be careful, he let her go.

He Zhiran came out of the space, searched the bodies of several men in black again, collected all the few valuables they had on them, and then walked towards the direction they came from.

She believed that there must be a way to the outside world, otherwise, how did these men in black get here?

He Zhiran took out a Swiss Army knife from the space and cleared the way, trying to prevent himself from being scratched by thorns and to be careful of snakes and insects under his feet...

Time goes back to when dawn was just approaching.

The Mo family hardly slept all night.

When Peng Wang called on the large group to continue their journey, Madam Mo was the first one who did not leave.

"Master Peng, my son and daughter-in-law are still in danger of death, and I can't leave."

Seeing this, the sisters-in-law and Mo Hanyue also said that they would not leave until Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran came back, and they would wait even if they were whipped to death here.

For the sake of Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran, Peng Wang treated the Mo family quite well.

"I've already promised Zhou Laoba to go look for them and reunite with us in three days. In three days, we'll definitely know whether they're alive or dead. It's useless for you to stay here and wait. It's better for you to hurry on."

Unexpectedly, his words had no deterrent effect on the female members of the Mo family.

The female members of the family, led by Madam Mo, refused to leave.

Even when they saw the officer's whip raised to hit them, they did not retreat.

Fang Chuanzhou and Xie Tianhai looked at each other and walked towards the Mo family.

The two men first saluted Peng Wang respectfully.

Fang Chuanzhou then said righteously: "Sir, the Mo family has been very kind to our Fang family along the way. I once said that I would follow the Mo family's lead for the rest of my life.

Now that their life and death is unknown, we have to wait with the Mo family."

Xie Tianhai also stepped forward to express his opinion.

"Sir, our Xie family must also stand together with the Mo family."

Peng Wang has been an escort officer for so many years, but this is the first time he has encountered such a thing.

His anger was immediately ignited by these people. He snatched the whip from Zhang Qing's hand and whipped Xie Tianhai and Fang Chuanzhou fiercely.

When Mrs. Mo saw that they were being punished for their own family affairs, she immediately ran over and stood in front of the two of them.

The other female members of the Mo family followed in Madam Mo's footsteps and blocked Xie Tianhai and Fang Chuanzhou behind them.

At the same time, the Fang and Xie families also ran over, ready to fight against the officials together.

The He family watched this scene from afar, looking as if it had nothing to do with them.

Peng Wang knew that these prisoners were serious about their actions. Even if he ordered all the officers to take action together, he was afraid that they would not be able to shake their determination to stay and wait.

Although he knew he couldn't continue on his journey, he couldn't lose his dignity as an official.

He raised the whip and hit his third sister-in-law who was closest to him hard.

The third sister-in-law didn't even cry out in pain, nor did she even try to dodge. Her determined eyes showed that she was ready to die.

Seeing this, the other female family members gathered around and pretended to protect the third sister-in-law.

Even though Peng Wang was furious, he was still shocked by the Mohist women's fearless attitude towards death.

He had to admit that both the men of the Mohist school who died on the battlefield and the women who were powerless were worthy of admiration.

With a sigh, Peng Wang threw away the whip in his hand.

"Wait! If they don't come back in three days, I will order them to drag you away even if it takes a while."

"Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Peng. Three days is more than enough."

Madam Mo bowed solemnly to Peng Wang.

She knew better than anyone that if her son and daughter-in-law were still alive, they would be able to reunite with them in three days.

Otherwise, I'm afraid they will be in real danger.

Now Madam Mo can only pray to God that they are still alive.
