Chapter 17: Can't Afford to Provoke
"Uh"
The sudden appearance of the green light made Yan Ran a little surprised.
Soon she realized something, and quickly asked, "Was it you who made this green light before?"
"Yes." Mo Ruyi nodded and answered on her behalf.
Yan Ran opened her eyes wide, surprised.
Before, she had thought that this forest had powerful monsters or treasures that were about to emerge so that the green light that enveloped the entire forest would appear.
Only now did she find out that it was not.
There was no powerful monster, nor was it a treasure that was about to emerge. This green light was actually generated by human factors.
What on earth was this method?
At this moment, she was even more curious about Mo Xiu's identity. He was so young and he didn't seem to be powerful at all. Why did he have so many powerful methods?
She heard that some of the disciples of the hidden sects were also very powerful, was it possible that Mo Xiu was a disciple who came out of the hidden sect to practice?
Thinking about it, she felt a little impossible. Even the disciples of the hidden sect could not have such a powerful means. It was impossible to kill people invisibly like this, and it was impossible to make the trees in the entire forest burst into green light.
Among the green rays, the small green particles slowly separated and gathered in Mo Xiu's palm. After the small particles formed a green sphere with a radius of about three inches, Mo Xiu pressed it to Lin Jie's chest.
In the blink of an eye, the green sphere fell into Lin Jie's body.
Lin Jie's body also flashed with green light, then that on the surface, Lin Jie's body turned green and white, which looked a little strange.
Mo Xiu transferred his hand that had formed the green sphere just now to Lin Jie's forehead, immediately, countless small green particles gathered again, wrapping Lin Jie's entire body in a short time.
After a while, Mo Xiu withdrew his hand, stopped running the Myriad Wood Spirit Art, and immediately dispersed the green light shrouded in the entire forest.
Lin Jie was still enveloped by the green light, which made Yan Ran a little worried. She looked at Mo Xiu several times but chose to not say anything.
After a while, the green particles that had wrapped Lin Jie's body disappeared, and Lin Jie's body no longer shone green.
Although her body was still dirty and blood was everywhere, but a closer look would reveal that all the fresh scars on Lin Jie's body had disappeared, and they disappeared completely, even the even scar was not left as if she had never been injured from the beginning to end.

Yan Ran quickly stretched out her hand to investigate, Lin Jie not only safe from superficial injuries but also internal injuries. She was dying just now, but at this moment, her vitality was extremely strong, and it was estimated that she would wake up in a short while.
"So... so awesome!" Yan Ran exclaimed secretly.
She already knew that Mo Xiu was not an ordinary person, and knew that Mo Xiu possessed very heaven-defying means. She didn't have much doubt that Mo Xiu could save Lin Jie's life.
However, she never expected that Mo Xiu could recover Lin Jie so perfectly in such a short period of time. This method could no longer be said to be 'saving one from death', but a more powerful "recovery" than 'saving from death'.
How could she get help from such a powerful person?
Before, she said that if there was a chance in the future, she would definitely repay him back, but now she had some doubts: would she really have a chance to repay Mo Xiu?
"Ugh"
Lin Jie woke up, opened her eyes, took a look at Yan Ran, and then at Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi.
"This I...?" Obviously, she still had some confusion about the situation.
"Are you okay?" Yan Ran asked quickly.
"Pri"
Lin Jie wanted to call 'princess', but soon realized that Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi were beside him, so she quickly changed her words, "Miss."
"I'm here." Yan Ran quickly took Lin Jie's hand.
"Where are those people?"
After Lin Jie finished speaking, she noticed the fallen corpse, and then turned her gaze to Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi again, "Did they save you?"
"Yes, not only saved me but also saved your life." Yan Ran nodded.
"Thank you for your help. Lin Jie is very grateful." Lin Jie quickly bowed to thank Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi.
"You are welcome; she has already thanked us just now." Mo Ruyi said with a smile.
Lin Jie glanced at Yan Ran, and then said again, "Today's grace must be remembered in my heart. We still have important things to do. Please allow us to leave first."
Mo Ruyi glanced at Mo Xiu, and when she saw that Mo Xiu hadn't expressed his attitude, she nodded, "Please."
Lin Jie clasped her hand to salute, then took Yan Ran away and headed towards Sun Martial City.
When the two of them disappeared, Mo Ruyi suddenly remembered something, and patted her head lightly, "I remember, isn't she Yan Ran the princess of Yan Kingdom? So that's why her name seems a bit familiar."
"I know." Mo Xiu nodded gently.
"You know?"
"Well, I knew it from the beginning, so I saved her."
"Then why did you let her leave like this? If Yan Wuji sends someone to trouble the Mo Family in the future, we may be able to hand her over and let Yan Wuji let our Mo Family go."
"It's not necessary."
Mo Xiu shook his head slightly. The dignified Everlasting Demon King disdained to do such despicable things.
Besides, he wouldn't be afraid if Yan Wuji sent someone to make trouble. He, Mo Xiu had never been afraid of anyone, and there was no need to impose upon anyone.
"Even if we don't hand her over to Yan Wuji, it's only good for us to be able to control her, isn't it?" Mo Ruyi felt a little hard to understand.
Mo Xiu did not explain about it, "Don't worry, as long as she is in Sun Martial City, I can find her at any time."
...
In the afternoon, at the Ning Family.
Somehow, Ning Rujian was a little uneasy and started to walk back and forth.
"Father, are you still worried about that person's identity?" Ning Fu couldn't help but ask Ning Rujian looking uneasy.
Ning Rujian glanced at Ning Fu and nodded lightly, "I was not very worried at first, but after so long, there is no news at all. I can't help being worried about this."
Ning Fu really didn't worry much, but comforted, "Father, you have been worrying too much. The reason why there has been no news for so long is that the Liu Family and Jiang Family are not very easy to deal with. After all, they may not be willing to cooperate with us."
Ning Rujian shook his head slightly. Just as he was about to say something, he saw a confidant hurried in, "Patriarch, that person's identity may have been found out."
"What do you mean by 'may'?" Ning Rujian was puzzled.
The confidant nodded, and then said solemnly, "According to the news from the Mo Family, that person is probably the son of Mo Zhuo, the elder son of the Mo Family, Mo Xiu."
"That idiot Mo Xiu? How could it be possible?" Ning Rujian immediately expressed his disbelief.
Ning Fu quickly added, "Are you sure you weren't deceived? Mo Xiu is a fool recognized by everyone in Sun Martial City, how could he be a powerful alchemist?"
"Originally, he was indeed a fool, but just yesterday, he suddenly became a normal person, and he gave people an unfathomable feeling. It is said that Mo Hong of the Mo Family also wanted to get rid of him and sent many people, but all died in his hands, and now Mo Hong is too scared to confront him anymore." The confidant explained quickly in detail.
"..."
Ning Rujian and Ning Fu were shocked at once.
It took a while before Ning Rujian muttering, "Is it because a certain strong expert possessed his body?"
"It's possible." The confidant nodded gently.
Ning Fu was suddenly enlightened, "I was wondering why Mo Ruyi listened to him so much, and still followed him like a follower If that person is not really Mo Xiu, then everything makes sense."
Ning Rujian took a deep breath. Although he was still very surprised, he finally accepted this fact.
At this time, the confidant said again, "There is another bad news..."
Ning Rujian's heart sank, and he spat out a word with a heavy heart, "Say!"
After hesitating a bit, the confidant said, "Mo Xiu and Mo Ruyi seem to have returned to Sun Martial City. This is the news I just received."
"Where are our people?" Ning Rujian asked quickly.
"There is no news so far." The confidant replied. After a pause, he added: "Not only the Ning Family, the people sent by the Liu Family and the Jiang Family, and the lord of the Revolving Pill Pavilion, Liu Xuan, have not returned."
"Boom!"
Ning Rujian felt a bang in his mind as his whole body seemed to have lost strength, slumped on the chair, startled.
"How could this happen?" Ning Fu was also hit, becoming a little lost for a while.
After all, she was the one who took the initiative, and now that something happened, she had to bear a lot of responsibility.
As the second lady of the Ning Family, of course, no one would do anything to her, but the guilt in her heart was inevitable.
If she had known this, she should investigate clearly before saying that even if Mo Xiu might fall into the hands of the Liu Family and Jiang Family, she would not take it easy.
After a long silence, Ning Rujian sighed, "Can't afford to provoke!"
"Father, what do you mean... shall we stop?" Ning Fu couldn't help asking.
"No, the arrow that has shot out can't turn back. At this time, even if we want to stop, it is too late. The other party may not let us stop easily."
Ning Rujian shook his head slightly, "Suddenly breaking ten Core Formation masters it is also a heavy blow to our Ning Family. If we don't do anything, our Ning Family may soon become the next Mo Family."
"So...?" Ning Fu didn't understand what Ning Rujian meant.
Ning Rujian did not answer but lowered his head to think.
After a while, he clapped his hands and stood up, and said, "I'll go out and meet the heads of other big families."
After leaving Ning's mansion, Ning Rujian first went to meet the Patriarch of the Liu Family and the Patriarch of the Jiang Family. After a secret discussion with those two, the three went to the Zheng Family and the Guo Family.
In the Guo's mansion, Ning Rujian, the head of the Ning Family; Liu Wuxian, the head of the Liu Family; Jiang Hao, the head of the Jiang Family; Zheng Yuanwu, the head of the Zheng Family; and Guo Wenwang, the head of the Guo Family, all five family heads gathered together.
After some discussions, the five great families reached a preliminary agreement and decided to join forces to put pressure on the Mo Family and force the Mo Family to hand over Mo Xiu.
