Chapter 388: It’s Truly Too Lenient for Him

Mr. Si Meng paused, noticing that Mo Jiuye did not respond for a long time, feeling even more smug.

It was obvious that he had hit the mark; Mo Qing must be on his last legs.

"I'll tell you this: apart from me, no one in this world can remove the child parasite from his body. Although I couldn't drag your Mo family's men to hell with me, having Mo Qing accompany me in death is worth it..."

With these words, Mr. Si Meng closed his eyes, lying there motionless, ready to face death.

Even with Mo Jiuye's calm demeanor, encountering such a situation would inevitably cause him to lose control.

A prisoner who had harmed their entire family was now taking such an attitude.

"Do you want to die?" His voice was so cold it sent chills down one's spine.

Mr. Si Meng was no exception. Having been captured by the Mo brothers for so long, this was the first time he had heard Mo Jiuye speak so icily.

He knew his time had come.

Well, it was better than enduring torture alive. Although he hadn't achieved his goal, the thought of soon meeting his beloved made him accept his fate!

Mo Jiuye indeed harbored murderous intent, but he wouldn't let the old fox die too easily.

Suddenly, a gleaming dagger appeared in his hand, and he thrust it straight into one of Mr. Si Meng's eyes.

In one swift motion, the eye was gouged out by the dagger.

"Since you don't want to open your eyes, this one is useless anyway."

Despite Mr. Si Meng's mental preparation, he could not withstand the sudden, intense pain of having his eyeball gouged out.

Somehow, he found the strength to scream, causing birds resting in the trees to scatter in all directions.

The second and fifth brothers, who had just given their father some water, emerged from the carriage upon hearing the commotion.

"Ninth brother, what happened...?"

Before the fifth brother could finish his question, he saw the blood-dripping dagger in the ninth brother's hand, with what seemed to be an eyeball hanging from it.

The second and fifth brothers understood immediately; the ninth brother was about to torture the old fox to death.

Torturing their greatest enemy was something they were willing to do themselves. How could they let the ninth brother do it alone?

The fifth brother also drew a gleaming dagger and approached Mr. Si Meng before the second brother.

With the same swift motion as Mo Jiuye, he removed the old fox's other eye.

Mr. Si Meng, who had nearly fainted, became conscious again due to the pain.

Although he still screamed, his voice was much weaker than before.

Seeing this, the second brother stepped forward, took the dagger from Mo Jiuye, and casually scraped it across Mr. Si Meng's body, causing the eyeball to fall to the ground.

Then, he swiftly cut off Mr. Si Meng's ten fingers.

"This is what you owe our Mo family; a few fingers cannot make up for it."

Saying this, he began cutting pieces of flesh from Mr. Si Meng's body.

This was arguably the most brutal punishment in the Great Shun dynasty—thousands of cuts!

Seeing Mr. Si Meng losing consciousness due to the pain, the fifth brother fetched a pot of cold water and splashed it on him whenever he was about to faint.

How could one suffer without feeling? He would not allow such a thing.

The second brother also knew where to cut to avoid excessive bleeding, ensuring a slower death. Therefore, he chose areas with thick flesh and less blood flow.

To avoid delaying their journey to Xiling Village, the second brother deliberately sped up.

While this would hasten the old fox's death, it was necessary since their father's life was more important.

Seeing the second and fifth brothers working in perfect harmony, Mo Jiuye stood aside, watching.

He gritted his teeth and said, "You aided evil and harmed our entire Mo family. You deserve to die. You want to die, don't you?

I won't let you die so easily. I'll make you wish you were dead."

Thinking of making him suffer, Mo Jiuye remembered the itching powder his wife had given him, which he had not yet used.

He could make the old man experience both pain and itching.

So, he took out the remaining packet of itching powder and mercilessly sprinkled it all over Mr. Si Meng.

Mr. Si Meng instantly started crying and laughing, a sight that brought satisfaction.

To prevent the old fox from dying too quickly, the second and fifth brothers stopped torturing him after a while.

They weren't sure whether to take Mr. Si Meng along with them.

"Ninth brother, should we take him with us?" asked the fifth brother.

Mo Jiuye shook his head. "It's inconvenient to bring him along on the road."

The fifth brother immediately understood Mo Jiuye's intention. After exchanging a glance with the second brother, they continued torturing Mr. Si Meng.

Perhaps it was because Mr. Si Meng's body was too weak; before long, he was barely breathing under the torture of the two brothers.

Mo Jiuye knew that the old fox was about to die and quickly reminded them, "Second Brother, Fifth Brother, cut off his limbs and head. Such a vicious person must not be given the dignity of a whole corpse."

The second brother wiped the blood from his face, unsatisfied, "Hmph! Letting him die so quickly is too easy for him."

After saying this, the two brothers continued their work, dismembering the old fox and throwing the pieces into the grass by the roadside.

The eldest brother remained in the carriage, taking care of their father, but he could still hear the commotion outside.

He knew that at this moment, the great enemy who had secretly harmed the Mo family for years had finally met his end!

He gently held his father's arm, which was still in the same position, and softly said, "Father, did you hear that? The mastermind behind the harm to our Mo family has died. You must hold on; Mother is waiting for you to reunite with her."

The brothers outside quickly tidied up and then drove the carriage away.

This time, the fifth brother took over driving the carriage, while Mo Jiuye and the second brother rode horses, and the eldest brother stayed inside the carriage to take care of their father.

When they arrived at the gates of Western Region, the timing was just right.

Mo Jiuye watched as the city gates were opened by two soldiers, and crowds of people began to enter and exit.

They were still subject to inspection at the gate. To facilitate things, Mo Jiuye again slipped some silver to the guards, and the carriage passed through smoothly.

The weather was not very good today, somewhat gloomy.

Perhaps due to the fear of getting caught in the rain, there weren't many people on the official road.

Riding at full speed for about ten miles, they encountered a carriage that looked very familiar coming towards them.

Mo Jiuye took a closer look and realized that the design of this carriage's cabin was almost identical to the one his wife had crafted in the space.

Due to the distance, even with Mo Jiuye's excellent eyesight, he couldn't clearly see the face of the driver, especially since the person was wearing a large straw hat that covered their entire face.
