Mo Jiuye saw that what he had said did not anger He Zhiran again. After thinking for a while, he spoke of another matter.
"I also sent people to ambush at Niujiaoshan, intending to take Mo Jiuye's life."
He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye had already learned about this from the man in black earlier, so hearing Nan Heng admit it now was merely confirmation.
"I have only done this much against the Mo family, nothing else."
With his hands and feet tied up by ropes, Nan Heng would have definitely raised his hand to swear an oath to make the people in front of him believe his words.
Mo Jiuye walked step by step to stand in front of him and said heavily, "Think carefully. Have you done anything else?"
Nan Heng shook his head vigorously: "Really nothing else. I have only done these things.
Not only that, after I heard the news that you and Nan Qi had a falling out, I have already called back the second batch of assassins that I was going to send out."
He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye looked at each other. By instinct, they felt that Nan Heng was not lying.
Since this was the case, he no longer had any need to live.
He Zhiran picked up the knife and aimed it at Nan Heng's throat, intending to give him a quick death.
Nan Heng thought this woman did not believe his words and was going to interrogate him further.
Trembling, he shouted loudly: "I have already told you everything I have done. You can't go back on your word..."
Facing such a coward, He Zhiran sneered inwardly while stopping her movement.
She was somewhat curious what else Nan Heng would do to beg for his life.
Nan Heng had already been scared out of his wits.
In order to live, he spoke to He Zhiran about conditions again.
"I also know a big secret of the Mo family. If you agree to let me leave alive, I will tell you."
Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran did not know what the "big matter" of the Mo family Nan Heng was talking about.
They were indeed very interested.
He Zhiran put away her knife and revealed a harmless smile.
"Since this is the case, go ahead and speak. Let's see if the importance of this matter is enough to spare your life."
Seeing her put down the knife, Nan Heng heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, he spoke very quickly:
"I know the reason why the Mo family has no descendants."
When it came to the Mo family's descendants, He Zhiran was very curious indeed.
It was understandable that Mo Jiuye's brothers were few. Added up there were only nine of them, and they were all married.
The sisters-in-law also looked quite healthy. Why hadn't any of them given birth for the Mo family?
Thinking of this, He Zhiran asked eagerly: "What is the reason?"
Seeing her interest, Nan Heng hurried to state his condition again.
"If you want to know the real reason for this, you must send me to my people. As long as I'm safe, I will definitely tell you."
He Zhiran would have to be a fool to believe his nonsense.
"Since you don't want to say, don't blame me for being ruthless."
As she spoke, she deliberately glanced at Yun Li's corpse, the implication obvious.
Thinking of Yun Li's painful appearance, Nan Heng shuddered instantly.
"No, although I have done the Mo family wrong, I have never personally taken the life of any Mo family member. You cannot treat me like this."
At this time, Mo Jiuye sneered coldly.
"You're good at exonerating yourself. Although the fourth brother did not die by your hand, the fact that he died because of you is indisputable. As for the third brother, he was alive as the Prince of Dashun, but seeing his subject suffer harm, he not only remained indifferent, but even took advantage of it.
Also, you instructed people to poison the well. If it weren't for the Mo family's tenacity, even banishment would have been avoided."
As for his own encounter with the black-clothed assassins lying in ambush at Niujiaoshan and falling off the cliff with He Zhiran, Mo Jiuye did not mention it.
Just those few things earlier would have been enough for Nan Heng to die several times over.
At this point, He Zhiran had already used her mind to take out a vial of liquid in front of Nan Heng and swayed it before him a few times.
"It was from pouring this thing on Yun Li's face that made her become like that. Do you want to try it too?"
"No... you can't..." Nan Heng shook his head desperately.
He Zhiran sneered coldly. "Since you don't want to try it, I suppose you should know what to do."
Nan Heng nodded forcefully again. "I know... I know... I'll say it."
After a pause, Nan Heng gritted his teeth and finally revealed the reason why the Mo family had no offspring.
"It was my mother, my mother said that sooner or later the Mo family would become Nan Qi's faction. In order not to let the Mo family grow stronger, their lineage had to be severed."
Upon hearing this, Mo Jiuye could no longer control his emotions. He strode past He Zhiran and came up to Nan Heng, grasping his neck fiercely with his big hand.
"What exactly did she do to the Mo family?"
Afraid that Mo Jiuye would take his life on the spot, Nan Heng hurriedly explained, "My mother... she bribed Granny Liu from Old Lady Mo's manor. Whenever there was a new bride, she would slip something into their tea on the first opportunity, causing the Mo daughters-in-law to be barren for life..."
As Nan Heng's voice fell, a crisp cracking sound was heard in the silent space.
Mo Jiuye used some force and directly snapped Nan Heng's neck.
Nan Heng's eyes bulged wide open and he lost his breath instantly...
He Zhiran looked at the clock in the infirmary again. It was already past three in the morning.
Time did not allow them to discuss the matter of the Mo family women being secretly fed contraceptives any further. The most important thing now was to dispose of the two corpses before dawn.
Also, Mo Yunfeng was probably about to wake up soon. They had to send him out of space in time.
Seeing Mo Jiuye still standing in place, somewhat angry, He Zhiran reminded him: "It's late, let's go out first."
Mo Jiuye nodded. "Alright."
The two briefly tidied themselves up and left the space together.
First, Mo Jiuye observed the surroundings outside the tent for a while before sweeping He Zhiran into his arms and disappearing instantly.
The two sped into the depths of the jungle and stopped in front of a deep pool.
He Zhiran glanced at the dark and bottomless pool.
Without further thought, she directly used her mind to take out the two corpses from space and threw them into the deep pool.
Such a place, such a deep pool, was indeed the right place to dispose of corpses.
The two corpses would probably never be found...
Having dealt with these matters, Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran checked each other's attire to make sure there were no omissions or traces before leaving together.
Once again, Mo Jiuye carried He Zhiran as he exhibited his lightness skill, stopping a few miles away from the camp in the jungle.
With a movement of her mind, He Zhiran made Mo Yunfeng appear in the clearing in front of them.
Mo Jiuye stepped forward and gently patted Mo Yunfeng's cheeks.
"Third brother, wake up, it's Jiuye. Can you hear me speak?"
After Mo Jiuye called out for a few minutes, Mo Yunfeng finally stirred awake slowly.
Mo Yunfeng recognized the person in front of him with one glance.
"Ninth younger brother?"
Mo Jiuye nodded vigorously. "Third brother, it's me!"
