Chapter 48 - 48 – No Mercy to Those Touching What’s Mine



The second he said that, Tang Yao concentrated his Qi on his face. However, the attack never landed on that. A pain suddenly attacked his leg instead. The bone broke instantly after contact and he screamed in agony as it burned like fire was engulfing it.

"Argh!"

Leo pulled his hair once again before throwing him on the ground while giving him a hard kick on the side of his head.

"Hah, even an evil guy like you scream just because of this? I thought you would have some resistance against pain or something." Leo asked with a raised eyebrow. "Whatever, it’s better this way. Let’s try another one."

He let out another electric current to stun Tang Yao before proceeding to inflict a series of painful wounds on his body one after another. All of them were placed carefully so it would cause immense pain without killing him.

Tang Jiaofu raised his body and asked a question, "What... is he doing?"

"Father!"

Tang Ao rushed to his body. He was surprised to find him able to move after seeing what happened just now. The wound that was supposed to be fatal was slowly healed.

"I am... fine. More importantly... Who are you?" The Tang Clan’s Patriarch looked at Jessica with a questioning gaze full of doubt and confusion.

"We’re Hallowed Insect mercenaries. We were originally employed to escort Tang Yao until he reached this destination. However... When we finished the request, we got information from our comrades in Chengdu that the Poison Sect had attacked our base. With the information we have beforehand, we knew that it was Tang Yao’s doing."

"Poison Sect?! But they are…"

"Your subsidiary sect. Yes, I am aware. However, it’s the truth that they attacked our base."

Jessica explained calmly without showing any emotion on her face before pointing at Tang Yao with her eyes.

"It was a perfect opportunity for him to silence us. His mistake is his overconfidence. He underestimated us and never expected us to know his real identity, a Supreme Evil Cult’s follower."

"And how did you know that?" Tang Ao asked, "How can you tell that he is possessed by an evil spirit?"

"That’s not really a big mystery," Jessica answered with a simple explanation, "We just spy on him. Collecting information is one of our specialties."

At that moment, the noise from the torture suddenly stopped.

Everyone turned their eyes towards the place where Tang Yao laid with shocked expressions on their faces. The man was still lying on the ground with his limbs twisted into awkward angles while blood dripped down his wounds. His face was beyond recognition.

But from the movement of his chest, they know that he was still alive.

The culprit of the torture, Leo, wiped the blood on his face as he dragged the mangled body to Jessica. He also grabbed Tang Soso and carried her on his shoulder.

"Keep him alive, Jessica. Anya wants to beat him up later."

His words were quite friendly but everyone shivered just by hearing them.

"Yes, Leader. What about the girl?"

The question grabbed his attention as he turned his gaze toward the unconscious girl. Then, he looked at the patriarch and asked.

"Is she still your daughter?"

Depending on the answer, Leo’s decision would change. He had no enmity with Tang Soso. He only felt pity. And Anya wanted to… keep her out of misery. So he would do his best to keep his promise to his subordinate.

Tang Ao felt sad. His lips trembled in grief as tears flowed down his cheeks. He remembered the way she stabbed his father. He wanted to say that she was still indeed his sister, but all decisions were left to the patriarch.

He looked at his father with hopeful eyes.

Meanwhile, Tang Jiaofu’s mind was currently a mess. He didn’t know how to decide. Many things had happened all at once, making him dizzy and unable to think properly.

In the end, he made a decision.

"No, she’s not. Do as you please with her."

"Fath-"

"Ao, this is my decision." Tang Jiaofu interrupted him without allowing him to finish his sentence.

"She has become a stranger to our clan after what she did. As long as she betrays us... She is not my daughter anymore. I am kind enough to let her live because our... benefactors here spare her."

Tang Ao felt mixed feelings. He couldn’t say anything more after that.

"Very well. Please excuse me. I advised to look into Poison Sect deeper. The traitors aren’t limited to the surface."

Leo and Jessica walked away after he said that. He took out a capsule and decompressed his beloved bike before pushing Tang Yao’s body into the cargo box at the back of the vehicle. Meanwhile, Jessica held Tang Soso gently.

They got onto the bike and drove away from Green Forest Bandit’s Base while leaving the Tang Clan behind.

"Patriarch, is it okay to leave them?"

Someone asked Tang Jiaofu nervously as they looked at him with worried expressions on their faces. They didn’t think it was a good idea to just leave them like this, with the traitor bodies.

However, Tang Jiaofu shook his head as he turned towards them and said in a low voice.

"It’s fine. Even if we fight against them, we would be the one getting annihilated. Have you realized the moment that... Lady put the threads around our neck? Even I, a 7 Stars martial artist, failed to notice it. Whoever they are...

I won’t mess with them."

"... Understood."

Looking at the disappearing figure of the Hallowed Insect mercenary leader who drove away with Tang Yao’s mangled body on the back of a bike, many people shivered involuntarily at the mere sight of him.

’Look deeper. To think that I would miss such an obvious thing. If only... If only I took a better look at him...’
