Ling Technology Enterprise

Two men and a woman stood in the sky above Ling Xiao’s company, keeping their eyes on its building. They were Mo Hongling, Mo Shi, and Mo Yu.

“Hey, Mo Shi! How about last night? Did you find the whereabouts of Ling Xiao’s wife and daughter?” Mo Hongling asked with a frown.

Mo Shi sighed softly and shook his head. “I didn’t find anyone there, and Ling Xiao himself didn’t return home either.”

Mo Hongling frowned even more at that, and she turned to Mo Yu. “Do you know anything about that? Did he deliberately move his wife and daughter after Mo Luo died?”

“I don’t know anything about that.” Mo Yu replied with a shake of his head. “It would be best to meet Ling Xiao in person, and we will get our answer.”

“Hmm?” Mo Hongling suddenly remembered something. “Where is the city of Hangzhou? I remember that Mo Luo and Mu Shu went to that city before, and he also died there.”

“Over there.” Mo Yu replied as he pointed in a specific direction. “With your flying speed, you can reach that city in no time.”

“You two go find Ling Xiao and dig up his information, and I will look for his wife and child in that city.” Mo Hongling said to them, and she immediately flew at full speed in the direction Mo Yu pointed.

Mo Shi couldn’t help but shake his head as he watched her leave; he and Mo Yu landed at the Ling Technology Enterprise building to meet Ling Xiao.

Inside his office, Ling Xiao was busy going through the various documents on his desk, and he kept muttering to himself. “Sigh, Mingyue’s absence makes it too much for me to take care of things myself, but I can’t do anything right now.”

*Swoosh*

“Hey, Ling Xiao, we came to talk to you.” Mo Yu said as he and Mo Shi walked into the room.

Ling Xiao was surprised by their arrival and immediately stood up to greet them. “Why did you suddenly come here, Elder Shi?”

“Do you know anything about Mo Luo’s death?” Mo Shi asked him back without beating around the bush.

Ling Xiao’s expression became utterly shocked upon hearing that. “Is it true that he’s dead? I last saw him five days ago, and we haven’t seen each other since then, so I don’t know anything about it.”

They didn’t say anything and continued to stare at Ling Xiao with suspicion, and Mo Shi asked again. “Where are your wife and daughter? Why can’t I find them at your house.”

Ling Xiao’s heart tightened upon hearing that. He didn’t know what to say to them, mainly since he was restricted by the slave mark in his soul, so he couldn’t tell them that his wife and daughter were staying with Ling Yun.

“Are you hiding them from us on purpose?” Mo Yu asked as he suppressed Ling Xiao with his aura, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.

Although they were both underlings of the Mo Clan, Mo Yu was their official member, and he was stronger than Ling Xiao by three minor stages.

Mo Yu then asked again. “Did you really not know about Mo Luo’s death? I feel that you have betrayed us and deliberately hid your wife and daughter to save them.”

“No… I did not betray the Mo Clan.” Ling Xiao shook his head vigorously. “I didn’t hide them, but they have been on holiday in Hangzhou since a few days ago, and I don’t know when they will return. If you don’t believe me, you can ask my secretary.”

Mo Shi then signaled to Mo Yu. He immediately released Ling Xiao from his restraint and walked out to find his secretary.

Before long, Mo Yu had returned inside. “His secretary told me his wife didn’t come here for a few days before Mo Luo died.”

“I see.” Mo Shi then turned to leave. “Since Hongling is on her way to Hangzhou, I think she should be able to find them easily, so we leave everything to her.”

Mo Yu glanced at Ling Xiao briefly and followed Mo Shi out of his office.

Ling Xiao sighed in relief after they left, but he wasn’t worried that Mo Hongling would find them, especially with Ling Xi being among them. “If Mo Hongling dares to attack them, I believe he will die at the little girl’s hands.”

Meanwhile, Mo Hongling, flying towards Hangzhou, suddenly stopped when she saw a woman with long black hair and a purple dress flying alone. ‘Isn’t she that bastard’s daughter? Back then, her father injured me quite badly, and if I killed his daughter, I’m sure that bastard would be miserable over her death.’

After she thought for a while, Mu Hongling’s body was enveloped by a pitch-black qi. However, her qi was not like dark qi in general, and the aura from her qi was even more sinister. It made her physique slightly strange, and her strength increased several times. She then disappeared from her original spot and reappeared before the woman.

Before the woman could say anything to him, Mo Hongling had tightly squeezed his neck, and her five fingers penetrated her chest directly.

“Ugh!” The woman groaned in pain as Mo Hongling channeled her pitch-black qi into her body, and her white skin rapidly blackened from it.

After a while, Mo Hongling pulled her fingers out of the woman’s chest and smiled smugly at her condition. “Hey, you don’t need to worry, I won’t kill you outright, and I want your bastard father to experience my suffering first. Anyway, my dark qi is very special; it will eat away at your body from within and slowly kill you.”

After saying that, Mo Hongling immediately threw the woman onto the ground in a flash, and she disappeared from the scene instantly.

Even though her consciousness was fading due to the pain from Mo Hongling’s pitch-black qi within her body, the woamn still managed to protect her body with a bit of her qi before being slammed to the ground with a bang.

*Bam*

“Cough… Cough…” The woman coughed and spat out a mouthful of blood, then sent someone a sound transmission.

“Shit! I’m so unlucky! Am I going to die today?” After she muttered that, the woman then lost consciousness.

About fifteen minutes later, a woman with shoulder-length black hair arrived at the woman’s location, and she was shocked by her condition. She then squatted down and was about to inspect her body, but Mo Hongling’s pitch-black qi prevented her from touching her. “What happened to Long Qiu? And where did this pitch-black qi come from? Moreover, this qi is more sinister than the dark qi of the demons.”

The shoulder-length black-haired woman was none other than Wen Qing. Before Long Qiu fell unconscious, she sent a sound transmission to her because her location was closest to her.

Wen Qing then took several pieces of cloth from her storage ring, wrapped Long Qiu’s body in them, and flew her away afterward. “What should I do now? Who can heal him?”

After thinking of a few familiar names, Wen Qing immediately called them to come to her apartment because she couldn’t touch Long Qiu’s body.

A while later, they arrived at her apartment, and Wen Qing immediately laid Long Qiu down on the bed.

Not long after, two women arrived at her apartment, and Wen Qi immediately asked them to come inside. “Huo Ye! Lei Lin! I don’t know what happened to Long Qiu; you two better see her for yourself.”

They nodded and rushed into the room to check on Long Qiu’s condition, but they were instantly shocked to see the pitch-black qi leaking from her body. “What happened to her? How did he get exposed to dark qi?”

“Stop it!” Lei Lin shouted as Huo Ye was about to touch Long Qiu’s body, and her eyes glued to the pitch-black qi as she frowned. “I’m familiar with this qi but forgot where I see it before. Anyway, you guys don’t touch her body, or the qi will spread to your bodies.”

“So what can we do for her?” Wen Qing asked frantically.

Huo Ye also frowned. “If we leave her like this, she will slowly die.”

Lei Lin sighed and shook her head at them. “We can’t do anything to save her, but someone might be able to.”

“Who?” The two women asked impatiently as Long Qiu’s condition worsened every second.

“Ling Yun!” Lei Lin replied with a smile. “If there’s someone who can save her, it’s him.”

Wen Qing immediately contacted Ling Yun upon hearing that. After waiting for a while, he did not respond to her. “He didn’t reply to my voice transmission.”

“Hmm?” Lei Lin called Ling Xi, but her reply made her sigh heavily. “Sigh, I just asked my big sister, and she told me that Ling Yun is currently unconscious, so we can only wait for him to wake up.”

Wen Qing and Huo Ye sighed heavily upon hearing that, but they could do nothing but wait for Ling Yun to wake up.
