Chapter 304: Chapter 304

"I just don't understand why you want to deal with a small figure like me. Could it be because I'm loved by everyone who sees me?"

"..." Read full story at NoveIꜰire.net

Loved by everyone who sees him, this was definitely a joke, but it better illustrated that dealing with him was as miraculous as him being loved by everyone.

"Since you know we're targeting you, why are you still so calm? You can still laugh?" Lin Yi was suspicious, suspecting Xiaoyao was just putting on a tough front, thinking that pretending to be superior could change his fate.

"I laugh and am calm because nothing will happen to me. I said before, I'm not short-lived," Xiaoyao looked at Lin Yi and said indifferently, his eyes seeming to say: the short-lived one is you.

"Haha..." Lin Yi laughed loudly several times, then said, "Really funny, I don't know where you get your confidence. If you're thinking of relying on Mo Yu and the others, I'll tell you, you'll be disappointed. They're still attending the conference now. Even if they knew what was happening here, they couldn't save you. In fact, they won't know, no one will know about this matter."

"Oh, I know. You called me here now because you confirmed the Young Miss and the others couldn't get away, taking this opportunity to deal with me, then clean up the traces. This matter would be done without anyone knowing," Xiaoyao said.

"Exactly, you still have some brains. If not for Mo Yu's relationship with you, we wouldn't need to go through such trouble. Of course, don't overthink it, even if we kill you, Mo Yu won't turn against us. At most she'll be unhappy. We just don't want Mo Yu to be unhappy," Lin Yi said. The meaning in his words was obvious: you're just a small figure, don't think you have an important position in Mo Yu's heart.

Even if relatively important, it couldn't be more important than one's own relatives. Could she possibly fall out with family members for a small figure like you? This was absolutely impossible.

Of course, the Mo family making these preparations wasn't just because of the Young Miss, but also considering Nangong Suxin. They heard Nangong Suxin's relationship with Xiaoyao was also quite good, fearing she might use this to cause trouble. Originally, the Mo family and Nangong family didn't get along well.

As for Guxing, they didn't consider her, not because they weren't afraid of Emperor Level martial artists, but because...

"Turning against each other, I don't want that either. That way the Young Miss would be very uncomfortable caught in the middle, especially when she might face my boss," Xiaoyao shook his head. He didn't want the Young Miss to fall into such a predicament. Therefore, after leaving the Mo family this time, he wouldn't mention this matter, wouldn't tell Guxing, and wouldn't tell the Young Miss.

"You mean that Heavenly Fiend Lone Star? So what if she comes? At most she's just King Level. Even without Mo Yu, we can easily take her down. Perhaps you don't know, but there are several King Level experts here," Lin Yi was very arrogant and confident because his side had King Level experts, which was worth being proud of for a family like the Mo family.

On this continent, families that could possess King Level experts weren't small families. Although King Level experts weren't as rare as Emperor Level ones, they weren't numerous either. Well, calculating by population ratio, they weren't many, only one among tens of thousands of martial artists.

After several King Level experts joined, the Mo family already had the strength to contend with some notable great families. If the Young Miss was added, they would completely surpass those families.

How could they not be proud? How could they not become somewhat arrogant and domineering?

Lin Yi felt he could be arrogant for another reason, a reason where they didn't know they were making a mistake, they thought Guxing was at most a King Level martial artist.

That's right, exactly so. In their understanding, the Young Miss's situation was something others couldn't achieve. So even if Guxing was very talented and called herself the world's number one all day, her achievements were limited and not worth worrying about.

This was a very interesting situation, and they couldn't be blamed because they had no way to know how strong Guxing was. In front of her, even the Young Miss they were so proud of wasn't worth seeing.

Guxing's situation was very special. She rarely contacted people, and those who did contact her didn't spread word of her strength. This led everyone to think Guxing was just a genius still working hard to break through to Emperor Level. Well, this was already very talented, after all, she was only in her early twenties, which was already heaven-defying.

However, they didn't know that Guxing's goal was no longer Emperor Level, but Saint Level, Saint Level standing at the peak of martial artists. Unless an even more monstrous God Level appeared, but that might not happen once in several hundred years and could almost be ignored.

If the Mo family people knew this situation, they definitely wouldn't do today's deed, because what they would face could no longer be considered a person, but an existence close to a god.

There was also one point, what exactly was the Young Miss's attitude? This was still an unknown.

"I know, just two," Xiaoyao said after hearing Lin Yi's words, looking toward those two King Level experts.

This time, everyone was even more shocked. What Xiaoyao displayed showed he had truly seen through them, not empty words, because his gaze had pointed out those two King Level experts.

If this was just coincidence, it could only be one. But for both to be wasn't coincidence. Even if he saw through some details, it showed one thing, he knew the opponents were King Level experts.

Since he knew this, why was he still so calm and composed? Did he really have something to rely on? What was this reliance?

Everyone felt puzzled, all staring at Xiaoyao, wanting to see something from him. But unfortunately, they saw nothing.

"Why are you still so calm? Aren't you afraid of death?" Lin Yi was very confused.

"What's to fear about death? After dying, everything ends. People fear death only because they think after death they won't know anything. Since they won't know anything, what's there to fear?" Xiaoyao smiled, then looked at Lin Yi and said something that could make Lin Yi jump up.

"So you don't need to fear either. Even if it's very painful before death, it will all disappear after death."

"You're the one who doesn't need to fear." Lin Yi indeed jumped up, pointing at Xiaoyao angrily.

"Right, I'm not afraid to begin with. I was advising you not to fear. How can you not understand even these words? Sigh, death might be a release for you," Xiaoyao shook his head with a sighing appearance.

Everyone suddenly fell silent. They felt this situation was very funny. Originally Xiaoyao should be very afraid and should be begging for mercy, but he wasn't. Instead, he was here teasing Lin Yi.

This situation was really too bizarre, making them feel they should laugh but unable to laugh out loud, because Xiaoyao's composure and calmness also indicated this situation might have unexpected developments, situations they couldn't imagine and naturally hadn't prepared for.

Hopefully, this was just a worry and wouldn't become fact.

"Seeking death." Lin Yi exploded, attacking Xiaoyao's vital points with a sword like lightning. If hit, Xiaoyao would definitely die, and he wasn't afraid of being scolded because this setup was originally meant to kill Xiaoyao.

"Wait." Xiaoyao shouted while slightly moving his body to the side, just avoiding that attack.

This was just coincidence.

Lin Yi thought to himself. The opponent was just... eh, he was also at General Level now. Dodging his strike wasn't really coincidence, it was possible. After all, he hadn't used full force in this move. If he used full force, the other would surely die.

Mm, surely die. Lin Yi believed firmly in his heart.

However, he also found it somewhat incredible. When he and Xiaoyao separated, Xiaoyao was still in the basic skills stage. In just a few short years, he had actually reached General Level, skipping Human Level and Scholar Level, rising three levels consecutively. This was also quite rare.

Could he also be a genius? No, impossible. If he was a genius, how could he have stayed in basic skills for so long.

Was it to establish a foundation in basic skills?

"General Level, not bad. From when you left the Mo family until now, it's been just over three years. One level per year, your potential is strong. If you had a future, you might even become Emperor Level. However, you no longer have that future," the Mo family head spoke at this time, showing a trace of surprise, of course, just a trace.

After all, Xiaoyao was still a small figure, not worth his surprise. Everyone present was General Level or above, even King Level. Who would care about him?

"The question of the future can be discussed in the future. I want to ask one thing, why are you targeting me? Could it really be because I'm handsome, dashing, and graceful?" Xiaoyao asked. He couldn't understand this point, feeling this matter seemed completely without reason.

Even if it was because of Guxing, there was no need for this. This matter was really puzzling, anyone would be confused about why.

"Because you are a bane star, even more so than Mo Ling," at this moment, a person walked out, an old man with a somewhat mystical style.

"Divine Calculator?" Xiaoyao asked somewhat puzzledly.

Divine Calculator was the person who had read Guxing's fate, and also the person the Mo family head had always trusted.

Xiaoyao had never seen the Divine Calculator before. Although he had heard of him, he never had a chance to see him in person, because this Divine Calculator maintained mystery by not seeing anyone except a few major clients, like the Mo family head.

Now that the Mo family had successfully risen, the Divine Calculator naturally boarded the Mo family ship. He wasn't the type who was pure-hearted and had few desires, but had certain ambitions. Naturally he wouldn't miss this opportunity and had now become the Mo family's exclusive Divine Calculator.
