Chapter 37: Both compromise and threat

Meanwhile, in the Mo family.

“What is my instruction to you? Look what you're doing!” In the study room, Gu Yue Mo Chen slammed the table, exploding furiously.

Mo Yan stood across from this old man, his head lowered. His eyes were full of shock and anger. He had also just gotten word that Gao Wan had been killed by Fang Yuan!

The 15-year-old, to think he had such a method and determination. Gao Wan was a proud servant of his Mo family and Fang Yuan's act of killing him was a blatant act of disrespect towards them!

“Grandfather, you don't need to be angry. This Gao Wan was only a servant, his death was not a concern. After all he was not a member of the Gu Yue clan. But that Fang Yuan, he's too brave, you have to 'see the owner before you defeat his dog'. Not only did he beat our dog, but he even beat him to death!” Mo Yan said angrily.

Gu Yue Mo Chen furiously scowled, “You still have the cheek to say that! Are your wings growing so strong now that you didn't even put my words into my heart, hmm? What I said before, you've forgotten everything! ”

"Your grandchild dare not!" Mo Yan jumped in shock. He knew now that his grandfather was really angry and quickly knelt down.

Gu Yue Mo Chen pointed his finger out the window and scolded, “Hmph, so what if the maid died. But now that you are still showing hostility towards Fang Yuan, this is really your petty problem and it is not clear the implications! Do you know the importance of your actions? The fight between juniors was their own business. As parents, we cannot interfere. This is the rule! Now that you've been looking for trouble with Fang Yuan, it means that you broke the rules. I don't know how many people are out there right now, seeing this disgrace of our Mo family!

“Grandfather, please calm down, anger will harm your body. It's Mo Yan's fault, I'm burdening the Mo family. Whatever Grandfather told Mo Yan to do, Mo Yan would do it! But your grandson really cannot accept this lie, that Fang Yuan is too despicable, too shameless. First, he lied to me and entered the academy. Furthermore, he hid in the dormitory and no matter how much I scolded him, he would not come out. As soon as I left, he went ahead and killed Gao Wan. He is so evil and despicable! ” Mo Yan reported.

"Oh, so?" Gu Yue Mo Chen frowned. This was the first time he had heard this information and a bright light shone through his eyes.

He took a deep breath, suppressed his anger and he stroked his beard as he said, “I've heard this story about Fang Yuan. In his early years, he was able to make poems and songs, demonstrating early intelligence. But to think that he only had C-class talent. It was difficult for him to have a good future and so I gave up on recruiting him. But now it seems like it's a little interesting.”

Pausing for a moment, Gu Yue Mo Chen knocked on the table and ordered, "Someone, bring the box here."

The waiter outside the door quickly complied. Shortly after, he brought a box. The box was neither too big nor too small but rather heavy. The servant used both hands to carry him and stood beside the study table.

"Grandfather, what is this?" Mo Yan looked at the wooden box and asked doubtfully.

"Why don't you open it and look at it?" Gu Yue Mo Chen narrowed his eyes and said in a complicated tone.

Mo Yan stood up, flipped the wooden lid and looked inside.

Immediately, his facial expression changed and his pupils shrank to a needle-like size. He could not help but take a step back and release an irresistible cry. The wooden lid in his hand also fell to the ground.

Without the wooden lid, the objects stored inside the wooden box were shown to everyone present.

It was actually a pile of flesh and blood!

The bloody meat was clearly sliced piece by piece and placed into a box. Bright red blood had gathered within it. There was some pale skin and flesh, while some long intestinal strands, mixed with several pieces of bone, either the leg bones or the ribs. In the pool of blood at the corner, there were also two fingers and half toes floating within it.

Whiteners…

Mo Yan's pretty face changed color as she took another step back, her stomach turning as she almost vomited on the spot.

He was Master Gu of rank two and had gone out to gain experience before. Despite that, this was the first time he had seen such a disgusting and twisted sight even though he had killed people before.

The flesh and blood inside this box was clearly the corpse of a person after being chopped and stuffed into it.

The scent of blood burst into the air and quickly seeped into the air, filling the entire study room.

The two hands of the family servant shook as he carried the box, his complexion pale. Even though he had seen the box before and vomited before, he could still feel the waves of heart palpitations and disgust as he held it now.

Among the three people in the study room, only the Gu Yue family elder Mo Chen was unaffected. He lightly looked at the contents of the box for a moment and said to Mo Yan slowly: "This box is what Fang Yuan had placed in the back door of our family this morning."

"What, is that really him ?!" Mo Yan was extremely shocked as an image of Fang Yuan appeared in his mind.

At that moment, Fang Yuan was sitting by the window, secretly eating his food. His facial features were bland and both his eyes were dark and gloomy. His body was thin and his skin had a special pallor of a teenager.

He looked like a normal, quiet young man. To think that he had done such a twisted and crazy act!

After the initial shock, there was a huge anger. Mo Yan shouted, "This Fang Yuan is too outrageous, which gives him the guts to do so! To dare to do such a thing, this is a provocation against our Mo family! I will go ahead now and bring him here to question him for his crimes! ” After he said this, he headed for the exit.

"You bastard, stop right there!" Gu Yue Mo Chen was even more furious than him as he picked up the ink slab on his study table and threw it.

A hard and heavy ink plate hit Mo Yan's shoulder and with a 'bang' fell to the ground.

"Grandfather!" Mo Yan held onto his shoulder as he called out warily.

Gu Yue Mo Chen stood up, his finger pointed at his grandson as he spoke in an extremely agitated tone, “It seems that this many years of practice has been in vain. You have greatly disappointed me! Against such a small Rank one early stage Gu Master, not to mention you involve so many people, but are even led by the other party. Now that you have allowed your anger to overwhelm you, at this point, do you still not understand the meaning behind Fang Yuan's actions?

"What does that mean?" Mo Yan was confused.

Gu Yue Mo Chen snorted, "If Fang Yuan wants to provoke us, he will blow up the matter, so why would he put this box in a secluded back door rather than put it on the front door where there are many people walking around. ?”

“Maybe he wants to make peace with us? No, if he wanted to reconcile, wouldn't it be better to apologize in person? Why should he send us this box of chopped corpses, this is definitely a provocation! ” says Mo Yan.

Gu Yue Mo Chen shook his head, then nodded. “He wants to make peace, but at the same time, he also provokes us. Placing the wooden box at the back door was his intention to reconcile. Placing the corpse in the box, it is a provocation.”

"Look," the old man pointed to the box, and spoke, "This wooden box is not big, and it cannot hold a whole corpse. Therefore there were only a portion of the corpses inside. He tried to tell us that he did not want to blow up the matter and wanted to settle it peacefully. But if our Mo Family wanted to continue this matter, he would place the rest of the corpses at our main entrance, completely blowing up the matter, it would be a losing situation for both sides. The entire clan knew that our Mo family broke the rules first, and for the future head of our Mo Family, the, it will look like he is very weak because he really needs older affection and protection.

After hearing these words, Mo Yan was momentarily dumbfounded. He had never expected that Fang Yuan's actions would have such a deep meaning.

“His method is really wise,” Gu Yue Mo Chen said in awe, “Only with one action, he trains toughness and gentleness, able to safely advance and retreat. This was only a simple wooden box but it not only revealed Fang Yuan's intention to compromise but also his ability to pose a threat to our Mo family. And it just so happens that he holds the weakness of our Mo family. If the reputation of the Mo family is tarnished, what happens next is the Chi family's attack as well as the attack from the clan leader's side.”

Mo Yan felt unbelievable. “Grandfather, didn't you think too much about it? Are you sure he's capable of this? She is only 15 years old.”

“Too high?” Mo Chen looked at his grandson dejectedly. “It looks like you have had a too smooth life in these past few years. Growing your arrogant attitude, you cannot see reality clearly. This Fang Yuan is unaffected by the danger and tricked you into entering the school. Furthermore, he used his wisdom in the face of danger and hid inside the dormitory to avoid trouble. No matter what humiliation you throw at him, he does not respond, this is his ability to endure calmly. After you left, he instantly killed Gao Wan, this was his courage and bravery. Now he sent this box, clearly showing his wisdom and planning ability. Can you still say that I think too much about it?”

Mo Yan listened with wide-eyed eyes as he did not expect his grandfather would greatly praise Fang Yuan. Immediately he said angrily, "Grandfather, he only has C-class talent."

Gu Yue Mo Chen sighed deeply, “Yes, he is only C class. Having such wisdom and having only C grade talent, was a pity. As long as his talent is higher, even if it is only B class, he will definitely become an influential member of our Gu Yue clan. Unfortunately, he was only in C class. ”

******* the old man was full of emotions. His sigh held back regret and at the same time rejoiced.

Mo Yan was speechless and in his mind, an image of Fang Yuan appeared once again. Under his psychological influence, Fang Yuan's weak expression was enveloped by layers of mysterious and ferocious shadows.

“This issue was created by you alone. How will you finish it? ” Gu Yue Mo Chen broke the silence as he started testing Mo Yan.

Mo Yan mused for a moment before he replied in a cold and aloof tone, “Gao Wan is just a servant, so there is no implication even if she dies. Fang Yuan was only C-class, so he was also a small matter. The important thing is to maintain the reputation of my Mo family. To calm the matter down, we might as well kill the entire Gao Wan family to show the entire clan our attitude to protect the rules and regulations.

“Mmm, you can think of the big picture. Putting aside your personal emotions to defend the interests of the family, this is very good. However, your method is still flawed. ” Gu Yue Mo Chen analyzed his response.

"Please tell me, Grandfather," Mo Yan begged.

Gu Yue Mo Chen said solemnly, “This matter was triggered by you, so I will punish you with seven days of confinement. From now on, don't look for trouble with Fang Yuan anymore. Gao Wan opposes his superior – a servant who dares to offend his master deserves to be put to death, so he should be executed for his crimes! Since he is the servant of the Mo family, we are responsible for our inability to educate our subordinates and thus we will compensate Fang Yuan with thirty ancient stones. As for the members of the Gao Wan family, give them fifty ancient stones as compensation and expel them from the clan.”

After a short pause, he continued, “For the next seven days, rest well at home, do not go out. At the same time, think about the deep meaning of why Grandfather chose to deal with this matter in this way. ”

“Ya, Grandpa.”
