In fact, even Gao Ge is surprised.
He can hardly imagine why the sword suddenly vanishes while one of the star maps on the Star Tree is surprisingly lit up.
The star map that is lit up happens to correspond to the sword.
After lighting up the star map, he has three martial meridians opened, which is definitely a delightful surprise.
"It seems that I can light up my star map to enhance my capability by collection."
Having lit up the star map again, Gao Ge feels very confident. He believes that if he could have confronted Shen Mo in light of his three martial meridians back to a few hours ago, he would not have fallen into a dogfight with Shen Mo at least even if he could not have killed him in a blink of an eye.
As to the sword, he cannot be sure but his instinct tells him that the sword is right in his body…
It sounds a bit bizarre.
Faced with Mo Ran, Gao Ge doesn"t feel like taking the sword out. Should Mo Ran ask him to return it, will he give it back?
"Right, tell us about you and Liu Rui." Gao Ge says.
"Are you so curious?" Mo Ran says with a snort.
Now he has no favorable feelings for Gao Ge.
Gao Ge says smilingly, "After all, you should give us a reason to help you kill Liu Rui and Song Zhi."
Mo Ran says with his eyes wide open, "Why would I trust you?"
"Apart from us, who can you trust if you want to seek revenge?" Gao Ge says relentlessly.
Mo Ran is desperately frustrated.
"If I tell you, will you really help me?"
"We will find out whether it is worthy to do that after hearing what you say. What if Liu Rui and Song Zhi are the victims?"
"They are b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! They are beasts! They should rot in h.e.l.l!" Greatly stimulated, Mo Ran pats his thigh heavily and roars.
"Enough. Then tell us how come they are b.a.s.t.a.r.ds. Don"t rap it with even no rhyme." Xia Lu says coldly.
Gao Ge coughs.
He thinks Xia Lu is a bit over the line…
Does she have to be so mean?
After all, Mo Ran is talking about something serious…
Mo Ran looks grim and then gradually appears painful. Holding his head with hands, he finally says slowly, "After graduating from junior middle school, I didn"t continue my academic study. I came to the city to make a living. My hometown is Danzhang…"
"Wait. Where is Danzhang?" Gao Ge asks.
"A town in Song City." Xia Lu says, "Shut up. Don"t interrupt him."
Gao Ge hurries to nod his head and shuts his mouth.
Mo Ran has fallen into recollection with empty eyes. What he has in mind must not be the traffic in front of him.
According to Mo Ran, Gao Ge and Xia Lu finally figure out what happened.
Actually, it is more or less like Gao Ge and Xia Lu"s conjecture.
Mo Ran worked in the bar, where he knew a waitress and became her boyfriend. They were each other"s shoulders. When one of them got sick, the other one would give a warm reminder for taking medicine; when one of them felt hot, the other one would blow air with a fan. Even they lived a hard life, they were okay with it.
They always told themselves to encourage each other.
As long as they made enough money in this city, they would go back to their hometown to build a house and get married!
Eventually, by the time they had saved almost enough money, got engaged and were ready to go back home for marriage this Spring Festival, a misfortune fell upon them. Liu Rui, Song Zhi and two more playboys came to the bar and took a fancy to Mo Ran"s girlfriend. They took away the girl after drugging her.
By the time Mo Ran saw his girlfriend again, she had become a cold and naked corpse.
Similar stories happen in this world for many times. Some may wonder why the rich second generation will do such a wretched thing since they can literally get any girl they want. Yet, they can only sigh over it and feel the world is unfair.
However, as to Mo Ran, it"s like the heaven collapsed.
It completely ruined his life and changed his life track. He could have lived a happy life with his beloved girl, but due to Liu Rui, Song Zhi and the other two b.a.s.t.a.r.ds, he had to be separated from his girl. Moreover, his beloved girl was killed in that disgracing way.
There was one more thing that astonished Mo Ran most.
The girl"s parents arrived and yet felt their daughter"s reputation was ruined. They would not even bring back the bone ash and just left in a hurry.
Just like…
Strangers.
Mo Ran found it hard to understand why there were parents like them in the world.
The girls" parents left while Mo Ran was reluctantly to let go. He called the police and went to court but he lost the case due to lack of evidence. Moreover, Liu Rui who was the only one with evidence submitted a proof of psychosis diagnosis.
Mo Ran felt hopeless and brought the girl"s bone ash back home to have it buried in the grave of Mo"s Family. However, when he was digging the grave, he found a sword…
Afterwards, he returned to Song City with the sword and started his revenge. He killed the two of the four people, leaving the Ruizhi Group, aka, Liu Rui and Song Zhi still alive.
However, when he was ready to kill Liu Rui and Song Zhi, Gao Ge and Xia Lu showed up.
The story of Mo Ran ends here.
Gao Ge coughs and suddenly feels a bit embarra.s.sed.
"We seemed to come here at a bad timing."
Mo Ran doesn"t say anything. He lowers his head and appears quite decadent.
Xia Lu says, "It"s not about timing. Liu Rui didn"t die before. It doesn"t mean that he won"t die in future."
"I thought you would say an eye for an eye will make the whole world blind." Mo Ran says bitterly.
"An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind?" Xia Lu says with a frown, "I don"t know what others say, but in my view, it is never like that. I do believe that he who doesn"t return evil for evil is not a gentleman."
"You are not a gentleman actually but a woman." Gao Ge says in a low voice.
"Do you believe that I will throw you out of the car now?"
Gao Ge doesn"t dare to speak anymore.
When the car stops again, they"ve arrived at the front of the Liu"s villa.
Upon entering the villa area, they make a call to Liu Rui before being allowed to go in. Hence, Liu Rui is standing at the door with a big smile on the face.
Seeing Mo Ran caught by Gao Ge and Xia Lu, Liu Rui feels a bit frightened at first and yet bursts into laughter soon.
He rushes forward, feeling like teaching Mo Ran a lesson. However, he acts so violently that his wound dehisces, making him feel pains in the wound.
"Good. Good! You are finally caught. Don"t you want to kill me? I am standing in front of you now. Kill me if you can!" Liu Rui shouts at Mo Ran.
He is venting his frustration in such a way.
It was because of Mo Ran that he couldn"t even have a good meal.
Lying in bed, as long as he closed his eyes, he would feel as if Mo Ran were standing by his bed with a sword. Even when he was taking a shower, he didn"t dare to close his eyes.
It seemed that Mo Ran was like the shadow following him.
