Mo Sheng calmly unfurled himself from his position and grabbed Bing. He also used his jade slip to send a message to Gu Long. He wasn't going to be stupid and let pride cloud his mind. You never know what trick Mo Jiu had in his sleeves.

As soon as Mo Sheng stepped out of his courtyard, Mo Jiu sneered. Seeing Mo Sheng look so clean, calm and composed when he was the total opposite made Mo Jiu flush in shame and anger.

Mo Sheng wordlessly unsheathed Bing. He had to admit, he was a little surprised at Mo Jiu's state. His former shidi's robes were splattered in blood, dirt, suspicious white stains and appeared very moist. The night breeze blew and Mo Jiu's smell was carried in the cool wind.

It was quite unpleasant. The worst part was that Mo Sheng could feel Mo Jiu's unstable energy. Even his evil cultivation wasn't properly hidden any more and Mo Jiu had the foul smell of dark energy on top of his other unpleasant odors.

Mo Sheng was notably irritated. This was the man that had orchestrated his death in his last life? He felt shame and unspeakable amount of disgust at that thought.

Mo Jiu detected the disgust on Mo Sheng's face and his heart soured. Mo Sheng wouldn't be able to be disgusted at him if he was dead! "Where's my inheritance?" Anyhow, he couldn't let his anger cloud his mind from his main goal.

Mo Sheng scowled. "Still asking for the inheritance at this moment? Idiot." And then he rushed forwards.

CLASH!

BANG!

BANG!

BANG!

BAM!

Mo Jiu managed to unsheathe Huoyan in time to block Mo Sheng's Bing but he had underestimated his strength. He was no longer in the middle stage of Spirit severing and even if Huoyan was a legendary sword, without true strength it was impossible to harness its full power so Mo Jiu flew several feet away, crashing through three spirit trees before landing on a rock.

BANG! BANG! BANG!...

Mo Sheng rushed forwards once more and repeatedly attacked Mo Jiu. In no time, his former shidi was a bloody mess.

Mo Jiu's eyes widened. This was not how he envisioned things! Mo Sheng had definitely absorbed his inheritance and was just trying to kill him to hide it! He never remembered Mo Sheng being so strong. It must be the work of the inheritance. No. The inheritance belonged to him!

ROAR!

Mo Sheng's eyes widened when Mo Jiu released the horned rabbit from the beast satchel and the beast grew to its full height.

Mo Jiu began laughing as he wiped blood from his lips. "Mo Sheng! For old times sake, release the inheritance to me and I would give you the honour of being buried with an intact corpse."

Mo Sheng ignored the idiot and turned his attention to the raging spirit beast. He had no idea the little bunny beast at Mo Jiu's side all this time was in fact such a monster.

BANG! BANG! BANG!...

Mo Sheng began to sweat profusely as Mo Jiu sent out sneak attacks to aid his beast with a maniacal laughter.

Gu Long rushed over as fast as he could. He had taken time to inform the elders and peak masters before coming over. His heart shook when he saw the huge beast looming over the huge trees on the Converging peak even if he was a bit far away.

When Gu Long finally arrived, he was surprised to find that elder No had actually beat him to it.

"Mo Jiu!" Elder Mo said with a stern voice although his expression was pained when he took in his disciple's state.

Mo Jiu froze and looked over to elder Mo. What did the old man want? To join Mo Sheng in looking down on him? When he took in elder Mo's look of devastation, he suddenly arched his lips and pointed to his master. "This is all your fault! If you had been a better master, I wouldn't have ended up this way!"

Elder Mo flinched as if he had been stabbed with a really sharp knife.

"That's not true!" Mo Sheng and Gu Long shouted at the same time and Mo Sheng looked to the smaller man thankfully as they both joined hands to keep fending off the beast.

Mo Jiu didn't stop there and released a full torrent of blames on elder Mo while the elder just stood still and took it all with sad eyes.

The other elders and peak masters soon arrived at the Converging peak but realized they couldn't get in as elder Mo had reinforced his barrier. They all frowned. What was going on? The elder wasn't planning to protect Mo Jiu... Right?

Elder Mo listened to Mo Jiu blame and berate him for a while more before he suddenly turned to the horned rabbit, sending a loaded blast of his spirit energy at the mighty spirit beast.historical

BOOM!

"NOOO!"

The saber toothed horned rabbit that was giving both Mo Sheng and Gu Long a really hard time to defeat was blasted to bits by a single hit from elder Mo and Mo Jiu fell to the ground coughing up blood.

Elder Mo looked down on his second disciple with tears in his eyes. Mo Jiu was right. He indeed blamed himself. He didn't know what he'd done wrong but he knew he'd done something wrong.

He could clearly feel the dark energy wafting off of Mo Jiu and that made his heart ache terribly. He had failed as a master. "I'm sorry..." Elder Mo whispered before grabbing Mo Sheng and Gu Long by their collars and leaving the Converging peak after letting down the barrier.

He was very much aware that the only way out for his second disciple at this point was death but he would rather die than be the one to kill someone he considered a son. He also couldn't let Mo Sheng be the one to kill his shidi no matter how angry Mo Sheng must be.

Mo Jiu clawed at his throat helplessly as he felt his cultivation level drop another two levels. He was now pitifully weak at the middle stage of Qi gathering. His life flashed before his eyes as he became surrounded by the elders and peak masters of the Duoluo sect.

How did he get to this point? It seemed as if the time when he was still the brightest star of his generation was so far away when it had in fact just been a little over two months. How did he get to this point?

This wasn't how his life was supposed to go!

The elders and peak masters all looked down on Mo Jiu in disgust whilst the Alchemy peak master lowered her head. They all had so much hope for Mo Jiu. Tsk, tsk, tsk.

"Where's the inheritance?" An elder asked and Mo Jiu burst out in laughter.

Seeing as Mo Jiu did nothing but laugh maniacally, the elder shook his head. "You've been practicing unscrupulous methods. I really don't understand. You have the divine level cultivation method and the secret dimension and yet, you still chose to turn to unscrupulous methods. Mo Jiu. You are truly too greedy."

SLASH!

Seeing everyone absorbed in their disgust of him, Mo Jiu rushed forward and slashed the elder's throat with a dagger, shocking everyone present.

BANG! BOOM! BAM! CRASH!....

They all attacked Mo Jiu at the same time but then suddenly froze in shock when the dust cleared up.

Mo Jiu was gone.
