However, just as this plan was about to be entirely deployed, Ji Mo Ya appeared!
Just one more step…
The two boys trembled like sticks in a can and tried to defend themselves, “It’s… it’s not like this…”
The two boys only heard their arms cracked without noticing Ji Mo Ya making his move, the bones in their arms broke but the flesh and skin were still connected.
Ji Mo Ya continued with his cold, clear voice, “Not like this?”
The two boys screamed in pain, great terror assaulted their minds as they begged for mercy.
“Yes, yes, yes. Young Master Ya has great insight. We are only doing this due to hardships as well. Our fathers and brothers have either died or severely injured in the war against demons, we hate the demons! This child is the descendant of a demon, he is an existence that will be a treat to humanity. He deserves to die Young Master Ya!”
Ji Mo Ya looked at their agitated yet ugly mouths and replied in disgust, “You think that my son deserves to die?”
“No, no… he possesses the blood of demons…”
“Did he kill your fathers or brothers?”
“No, but…”
Ji Mo Ya was out of patience. “The war is now in a critical stage, yet cowards like you did not go to the frontlines to kill demons but remained in Holy City to scheme against a child. Rather than allowing human trash like you to continue living. It is better to kill you to stop wasting the spirit energy of our Holy City.”
“No, please, no! Young Master Ya, we are wrong!”
Both boys could feel death approaching them and they started to lose control of their bladder. The crying Little Treasure was also covering his mouth at this point.
Ji Mo Ya’s mood was extremely gloomy; although it was not displayed on his face, his actions revealed it.
He flicked his fingers a few times.
“Poof poof!”
The two boys felt all the bones in their body shattering before they collapsed on the ground lifelessly like puppets with their strings cut.
After that, the Feather Guards standing not far behind went forward to drag the bodies away.
Soon, shouts were heard from outside the wall.
“Fan Ji, Song Pu. As servants, they have bullied their master and was discovered by Young Master Ya. They are punished by house rules and shall serve as a warning to others…”
……
Little Treasure was slightly shocked by Ji Mo Ya’s wrathful methods. He was ultimately still a kid in the end.
“Little Treasure, with father around, you do not need to be afraid.” For the first time, Ji Mo Ya kissed his little face proactively.
Little Treasure’s frantic heart slightly calmed down.
He asked with red eyes, “Father, let us rescue mother. She is really not a Greater Demon…”
Ji Mo Ya’s gaze hardened, “Little Treasure, your mother did not become a Greater Demon. She received severe injuries during the war and needed to enter seclusion for a few years to heal. She wants you to grow up well and show your most excellent and greatest side to her when she leaves seclusion!”
“Is that true? But Father, they said…”
“They even say that Father doesn’t want you, but isn’t Father here now? You are my son, and forever will be. Do you want to believe in the rumours outside, or believe in Father?”
Little Treasure stopped crying and broke into a smile.
“Father, I believe you!”
Fifth Elder silently watched the father and son from the side. He knew that Ji Mo Ya had made his decision and he would protect his child no matter what happens.
That was why the elder did not object. The Ji Mo Clan would thank the heavens as long as Ji Mo Ya stopped getting involved with the Greater Demon.
The child carries half the blood of the Ji Mo Clan and is still considered a pure human as he has yet to awaken his demon bloodline due to his young age.
When the time comes, the clan can try to find some secret techniques so that can retain his human bloodline whilst extracting his demon bloodline. There is still hope.
“Come, Little Treasure. Your father is still suffering from heavy injuries, let me carry you…”
