Chapter 167: 167 Give it a try! (Third update)

"Mo Zhixuan! How can you say such things!" Jiang Mubai’s eyes instantly became bloodshot, his face filled with aggressive fury as he said, "How can you do this to Chuyi! Do you know how much she has suffered waiting for you! Today, I must seek justice for Chuyi!"

Jiang Mubai tore through the barrier in front of him, pulling out a hexagonal weapon that glinted with a cold light, and charged towards Mo Zhixuan!

His speed was exceptionally fast!

His body turned into a blur!

Mo Zhixuan slightly narrowed his eyes as he watched the charging figure, a cold glint flashing through his deep phoenix eyes.

Clearly, Jiang Mubai’s target was not himself!

It was the person in his arms.

Chu Jin also realized Jiang Mubai’s true target, and was suddenly reminded of the time she was ambushed in Mo Zhixuan’s apartment.

Back then, she was puzzling over who would want to target her.

Now, the answer seemed quite clear.

Just as Jiang Mubai was about half a meter away, Mo Zhixuan tightened his hold on the person in his arms, the corners of his lips parting slightly, he murmured softly, "Don’t be afraid!"

Then, holding the person in his arms, he swiftly sidestepped, and Chu Jin barely missed the weapon in Jiang Mubai’s hand.

Mo Zhixuan sternly raised his left hand, almost giving Jiang Mubai no time to react, and effortlessly seized Jiang Mubai’s jaw.

Jiang Mubai was thus lifted by him, his feet immediately leaving the ground.

The air suddenly filled with the sound of cracking bones.

Jiang Mubai’s facial features instantly contorted, whether from pain or anger was unclear.

The blood in his eyes did not fade, like an enraged lion!

Mo Zhixuan spoke coldly, "Mubai, we are from the same sect. I did not want to lay hands on you, and I ask that you do not try to challenge my limits!"

With that, he let go.

With a ’bang’, Jiang Mubai heavily fell to the ground.

Struggling to rise, Jiang Mubai propped himself up off the ground, wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth with one hand, and looked towards Mo Zhixuan with bloodshot eyes.

"Ninth Brother," Jiang Mubai spat out a mouthful of blood, "today I will call you Ninth Brother one last time. As long as I don’t die today, every time I see this commoner, I’ll kill her once to see if you can truly protect her!"

Mo Zhixuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, his expression grew tense, looking down at Jiang Mubai with an intense severity, with a gaze blood-soaked and chilling, "I’m sparing your life out of respect for Mrs. Jiang. If you dare to touch her in the slightest, I’ll slaughter your entire Jiang family!"

Jiang Mubai clenched his fist in humiliation, "You dare!"

Mo Zhixuan let out a cold laugh, his entire being as cold as deep ice in the dead of winter, "It seems that my absence from the Superpower World has been too long. You’ve forgotten my true nature. If you think I wouldn’t dare, then feel free to try!"

His true nature?

Deep memories were stirred in his mind.

Behind him, the sky was drenched in blood, crows flying over the carnage.

In front of him, a nation rejoiced, celebrating universally.

With a turn of his body, he crossed from one realm to another.

The bloodthirsty young man, empty-handed, once singlehandedly slaughtered an entire city!

Jiang Mubai’s pupils shrank suddenly, the blood in his eyes gradually fading, his entire body slumped to the ground lifelessly, like a withered tree.

Mo Zhixuan no longer paid any attention to Jiang Mubai, taking Chu Jin by his side and walking towards the side of the road.

Watching the two departing figures, a sinister look flashed through Jiang Mubai’s eyes.

It was a while before Jiang Mubai climbed up from the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, the sinister look in his eyes gradually disappeared, and the disheveled aura around him was also reined in.

Turning around once again, he regained the appearance of that extraordinarily handsome young master.

His fox-like, bewitching eyes narrowed slightly as he walked toward the direction of his car.

Only he knew the extent of the agony he was enduring.

He did not want Zheng Chuyi to see him in such a disheveled state.

He was even less willing to have Zheng Chuyi worry about him.

"Chuyi," Jiang Mubai opened the car door, lightly wiping the tears from the corner of Zheng Chuyi’s eyes with his fingers, "Don’t cry anymore."

His movements were extremely gentle, as if he was handling an unparalleled treasure.

His eyes showed a deep and indulgent affection.

If he could, he truly wanted to replace Mo Zhixuan and cherish Zheng Chuyi for a lifetime.

Unfortunately, she didn’t have him in her heart.

Unfortunately, she couldn’t see him.

"Mubai!" Zheng Chuyi’s emotions completely collapsed, her arms wrapped directly around Jiang Mubai’s waist, her head deeply buried in his chest, sobbing loudly, "Why does he have to treat me like this... It’s so unfair to me, so unfair..."

It seemed unexpected for Chuyi to make such a move.

Jiang Mubai’s body stiffened, his hands awkwardly embracing the slender waist, his eyes filled with pity, "Chuyi, don’t worry, I will definitely get justice for you. Mo Qianjue will regret the decision he made today."

Chuyi didn’t speak, still holding tightly to Jiang Mubai’s waist, sobbing sadly.

Jiang Mubai had never seen this side of Zheng Chuyi before.

The Chuyi he knew was always gentle and elegant, with dignified manners, never having lost her composure like this before.

At this moment, though she was in his arms, her heart and eyes were filled with another man.

A pain, an incomprehensible pain.

Extremely painful, heart-wrenching, skin-peeling, muscle-tearing.

Jiang Mubai slowly closed his eyes, hiding the sorrow within, silently promising in his heart, "Chuyi, rest assured, I will make you happy."

Feeling that Chuyi’s cries were getting softer and her emotions gradually stabilizing, Jiang Mubai raised his hand to rub her head gently, calling out softly, "Chuyi, I want to discuss something with you."

Her voice was still hoarse, "Mm, Mubai, what is it?"

Her arms remained tightly wrapped around Jiang Mubai’s waist, the sound of his heartbeat in her ear gave her a momentary sense of peace.

Chuyi had always known about Jiang Mubai’s feelings for her.

She also vaguely knew that her behavior was somewhat inappropriate since she couldn’t promise anything to Jiang Mubai.

But at times like this, she could only seek warmth and comfort from Jiang Mubai.

And only Jiang Mubai could help her at such times.

"Chuyi," Jiang Mubai carefully considered his words, "We’ve been in the secular world for a while now, maybe in a few days... you could come back with me."

Chuyi suddenly looked up, her eyes unbelieving as she gazed at Jiang Mubai, "Mubai, what are you talking about!?"

Jiang Mubai forced a smile, "Chuyi, trust me, I will make you happy. This time, can you please listen to me?"

"No!" Zheng Chuyi pushed Jiang Mubai away fiercely, "Since I’ve come here, it’s impossible for me to go back alone. Mubai, it’s okay for you to help me, I can do it myself!"

She had finally managed to settle down in the Mo family with great difficulty, how could she give up so easily?

She firmly believed that Mo Zhixuan was just blinded by that lowly mortal.

One day, he would see her true worth.

After saying this, Zheng Chuyi swept her sleeve in anger and turned to leave.

Jiang Mubai watched the receding red figure, a smile blooming at his lips, yet tears surged uncontrollably.

A man doesn’t easily cry, tears are only shed at the deepest grief.

For you, I’ve cried with laughter.

For you, I’ve laughed with tears.

I could give you everything I have.

Sadly, I can’t give you a lifetime of smiles.

On the roadside, a red-clad woman with an outstanding temperament walked slowly, attracting frequent glances from passersby with her stunning beauty.

A red sports car followed her, its speed neither fast nor slow, keeping pace with the lady in red.

Jun Ao Group.

In the top-floor office.

Mo Qianjue picked up the receiver and dialed an internal number, after a moment, the call connected, "Temporarily halt the acquisition plan for the Chu company, and also, prepare a detailed dossier on Chu Jin, the heiress of the Chu family."

After a pause, he added, "In detail."

He always felt that Chu Jin was not as simple as he had imagined.

Perhaps, that day in Lawless City, he had been too careless.

After hanging up, Mo Qianjue slowly lit a cigar, holding it at the corner of his mouth, his long legs casually resting on the desk, his posture both languid and seductive. His stunning features were veiled in the hazy smoke.

A pair of delicate phoenix eyes gleamed with an intensity that could not be ignored, piercing through the smoke, daunting to onlookers.

The intelligence network of Lawless City spread across the globe, with exceptionally quick information.

Soon, a man in a suit walked in, holding a stack of documents.

"Chief," the man in the suit bowed respectfully towards Mo Qianjue, handing him the dossier, "Here’s the information you requested."
