Chapter 1523: Only the Dead

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Under the lead of the little demonic beast, Xue Fanxin walked for a long time before finally arriving at her destination. However, after arriving at the event location, she did not find any traces of Shui Moning, but she saw traces of someone moving.

The white cat sniffed the surroundings and smelled Shui Moning’s scent. “Master, there’s a smell left behind by Shui Moning here. She must have been here.”

“Little Meow, follow the smell.”

“Yes, Master.” The white cat received the mission and used her sense of smell to follow the smell.

Xue Fanxin did not completely rely on the little white cat. Along the way, she observed the clues in the surroundings and realized that there were really quite a few traces of activity left here. From the traces, there were at least five or six people.

In other words, apart from Shui Moning and her father, there were others here yesterday.

Who could it be?

While Xue Fanxin was looking for Shui Moning, far away, a father and daughter were fleeing with all their might. Behind them, four people were chasing after them.

“Moning, don’t care about me. Escape yourself. With your ability, if you escape yourself, you still have a chance of survival. If you take me with you, you will definitely die.”

“Father, what nonsense are you talking about? No matter what, I won’t leave you behind. Even if I die, I want to die with you.”

“Silly child, why are you so stupid?”

“Father, you’re my only family, so I definitely won’t abandon you. Don’t worry. As long as we persevere and wait for Young Master Manqiu to bring reinforcements, we’ll be fine. Father, quickly take a Water Spirit Pill. Only then will you have the strength to run with me for a day.” Shui Moning had never thought of giving up on her father, her only family. Even if the pursuers behind her were already approaching, she did not give up and continued to escape with her father.

Behind them, the pursuers had already arrived. Two of them ran to the front and blocked the way.

“Shui Dongliu, Shui Moning, let’s see where you can run now.”

“Shui Dongyou, must you be so ruthless? No matter what, we’re brothers.

Furthermore, I’ve already been expelled from the Shui family. Can’t you let me

“Uncle, the entire Shui family is already yours. We are only insignificant people. Please let us off.” Shui Moning knew that she could not escape and could not win, so she could only try her best to beg for mercy.

However, she did not have much hope.

If Uncle was willing to give them a way out, he would not have risked his life to chase them into the depths of the Forest of No Return. Therefore, Uncle would not let them off.

“It’s impossible to let you off, because if I don’t get rid of the roots, you’ll grow again. Although you father and daughter don’t have much strength, I still have to be careful just in case. Only the dead can completely reassure me.”

Shui Dongliu and he were half-brothers. Because of their extraordinary talent, they had been valued by the family since they were young and nurtured as the next head of the family. If not for the fact that he had become useless in the Five Elements Academy, the current Shui family would probably all belong to Shui Dongliu.

Even if Shui Dongliu had become useless, the family was still willing to spend a huge amount of manpower and resources to support him. Every year, just the expenditure on the Water Spirit Pill was quite high.

Fortunately, in the past few years, the complaints of the family towards Shui Dongliu had become stronger and stronger. He had secretly helped to encourage them, and it was only a few days ago that he could expel Shui Dongliu from the family.

However, this was far from enough for him. He could only be at ease if Shui Dongliu died.

Not only was Shui Dongliu going to die today, but Shui Moning was also going to die..
