At that moment, Mo Shisheng was gripping his neck tightly, her thumb pressed against the artery in his neck.
Meeting Mo Shisheng's icy gaze, Li Xiao's heart sank. Mo Shisheng wanted to kill him!
Fear filled Li Xiao's eyes, yet he dared not move. His life was in Mo Shisheng's hands, leaving Li Xiao in a passive position.
Seeing Li Xiao's fear, Mo Shisheng's lips curled slightly, and she loosened her grip a little. "Speak, what are your last words?"
"You! You!"
"I'll give you three counts to leave your last words." Mo Shisheng glanced coldly at Li Xiao, not sparing him another look.
Li Xiao seemed to sense the fear of death. At this moment, he didn't care that his life was in Mo Shisheng's hand. He struggled to break free and used 80% of his strength to attack Mo Shisheng.
"court death!"
The moment Mo Shisheng sensed the change in Li Xiao's aura, she knew what he was about to do. A cold smile played on her lips as she raised her leg and forcefully pressed her knee against Li Xiao's abdomen. One hand blocked Li Xiao's attack, while the other hand, gripping Li Xiao's carotid artery, tightened its grip at that moment.
"laugh……"
That was the sound of skin tearing open. Mo Shisheng had actually used the sharp edge of her fingernail to pierce the skin on Li Xiao's neck and forcefully pulled out the still-pulsating artery. Blood gushed out, and the smell of blood instantly filled the air.
Most of the people present turned pale with shock at the bloody scene; some couldn't bear the cruelty and even vomited on the spot...
It's not their fault. After all, they've rarely seen war in this peaceful imperial city. Although they're all cultivators, they only ever go so far in their duels.
Mo Shisheng watched as blood flowed from a hole in Li Xiao's neck, the bright red liquid staining his clothes like a blooming, alluring flower.
"You...will...not...die...a...good...death..."
Li Xiao's head slumped to one side, blood trickling from the corner of his lips, his eyes filled with resentment as he looked at Mo Shisheng.
Ha, may they die a horrible death?
She never considered herself a kind person; how much blood has her hands stained with?
Mo Shisheng seemed dissatisfied. Remembering that he had just hit Jiang Yao with his right hand, he raised his hand and drew the sword from Li Xiao's waist. The sharp blade gleamed silver in the sunlight.
The force with which he gripped the sword hilt was immense, his fingertips turning white, and in the end, he chopped off Li Xiao's right hand with a powerful strike.
A whole arm fell to the ground, and Mo Shisheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. Her tense nerves relaxed at this moment, but she lost her footing and fell backward.

"Dead?"
After the story was finished, Xiu frowned deeply. "That simple?"
"If you had been there, you wouldn't have found it so simple."
Xie wasn't lying. Although what he said wasn't as dramatic as it sounded, everything Mo Shisheng did left a deep impression on him, and he couldn't forget it.
Seeing something and saying it aloud are not the same feeling. Besides, Xiu wasn't there at the time and was just listening, so he naturally wouldn't think it was anything special. He might even think Mo Shisheng was kind.
but……
Xie peered through a crack in the roof tiles and thought, "Compared to this bloody scene, Sheng Sheng was practically an angel."
Suddenly, as Mo Shisheng was gently wiping her dagger, she slightly raised her eyes and met Xie's gaze.
