Mo Xie made his way back to the Sword Dragon Security Association and gave part of the reward to the receptionist.
"This... A gold tael?"
Lan Xue was shocked, the 10% tax of their security association is a gold tael? how much did Mo Xie earn exactly? ten gold taels!
Mo Xie smiled as he spoke: "Don't worry Sister Lan, I will be on my way then."
After speaking, Mo Xie walks out of the association door, luckily, all of the people here were mortals, nobody heard Lan Xue exclaiming.
Lan Xue looked at Mo Xie as she thought: 'Getting on his good side will be good too, or if I become his woman... I will be settled for my whole life, maybe..."

...
Mo Xie headed to somewhere first, he needs to pay for the debt he had incurred.
*Tok *Tok!* Mo Xie knocked on the door.
After a while, a person opened the door as a familiar silhouette appeared.
"Uncle Feng!"
"Oh! Mo Xie!"
Uncle Feng is the very first person that helped him inside the Gangting City, even made a recommendation for him to enter the sword for hire association.
"I've come here to pay my debt." Mo Xie spoke as a smile formed on his lips.
"No rush, no rush, it is just a few copper coins worth of food and clothes, as long as you live well, I am completely satisfied." Feng Baoli spoke as he waved his hands for Mo Xie to come in.
Mo Xie nodded his head and entered, he then looked around as he couldn't see Feng Baoli's wife, Lu Mei.
"Where is Aunty Lu?"
"Oh, she had been sick for a few days, I guess, she will heal after a while." Feng Baoli exclaimed.
"Can I see Aunty Lu?"
"Sure, wait, let me bring her here first." Feng Baoli spoke as he walks to a room where Lu Mei is resting.
After a while, the two of them came out, Mo Xie looked at Lu Mei in shock, she looked like she had just aged more.
A frown can be seen in his expression as he pondered for a bit.
"Little Xie, how are you?" Lu Mei asked as she smiled at him.
"What happened to you, Aunt Lu?"
"Oh, I was outside together with Li, but after we came back, I suddenly became sick, don't worry about it, I will get better soon." Lu Mei spoke, confident that she will recuperate in time.
Mo Xie, on the other hand, is having a bad feeling about it: "Aunt Lu, can I check your pulse for now?"
Lu Mei sighed as she nodded: "I am getting too old, even a brat like you are worried about me."
After joking, Lu Mei extended her hand to Mo Xie.
Mo Xie closed his eyes as he feels Lu Mei's pulse, Mo Xie's face kept changing in a bad manner as time passes.
Both Lu Mei and Feng Baoli can see it as they started to feel uneasy, is it really not an ordinary sickness?
Mo Xie opened his eyes as he smiled at the both of them: "Aunty, I need to do something, please wait."
After Mo Xie spoke, he ran to the catching, not waiting for them to reply.
Mo Xie took out one of the herbs he got from the Dark Dragon Herb Valley and brought it back to the guest room of the couple together with some kitchen items like a pot and a grinding stone.
He started to chop it and placed on a grinding stone, he then opened a pill bottle from the box that Mu Ye had given him earlier, he took out a single pill from the bottle and divided it into four pieces and placed one of the pieces into the grinding stone and started mashing it up.
He also added water to it, and after a few minutes, all of it became liquid and started to become darker, he then placed it in a glass as he spoke: "Aunt Lu, please drink this."
Lu Mei sighed as she did, no matter what, she believed that Mo Xie will never harm them.
After that, Mo Xie looked around, he then saw a needle and immediately boiled water, he sterilized the needle afterward and looked at Lu Mei.
"Aunt Lu, this will hurt slightly, but please endure it."
Lu Mei looked at Feng Baoli, Feng Baoli immediately nodded.
"Okay, I will."
Mo Xie smiled as he grabbed Lu Mei's arm and poked the end of her middle finger.
Blood started to gash out then, what followed is a purple substance wrapped on a dark green liquid, looks like the one that Mo Xie had made earlier.
"This... What is this?" Feng Baoli asked in shock, Lu Mei is speechless, something that looks horrible is inside her body?
Mo Xie sighed a breath of relief and spoke: "That is poison, it is a low-level one, something called, Purple Aging Poison, it will increase the aging of a person by a hundred times, but once it is removed, that person will slowly return to her good body condition."
Hearing this, the couple was shocked, when was Lu Mei poison?
Mo Xie then asked: "Aunt Lu, had you ingested a nice smelling tea recently? or a nice smelling water?"
Hearing Mo Xie's question, Lu Mei and Feng Baoli pondered.
"Ah! I did, I was given a tea yesterday when we are coming back from picking herbs, it smelled really goo-" Lu Mei halted before she could finish her words.
"I was poison by that team?"
"Who did it?" Mo Xie became enraged, who would even do such a thing to nice people like Aunt Lu and Uncle Feng?
"This... Promise us that you wouldn't do anything, you wouldn't be able to fight them!" Lu Mei exclaimed.
Although enraged, Feng Baoli also calmed down and added: "Yes, we are fine, so long as we don't receive anything again, nothing of the same event will happen."
"Uncle, Aunty, Just tell me, I won't do anything rash, I promise on the name of I, Mo Xie."
Hearing this, the couple looked at each other before Feng Baoli spoke: "It is the 2nd strongest Clan within the Gangting City, the 2nd Young Master of the Gu Clan, Gao Zhong."
Mo Xie hearing their words smiled and spoke: "Don't worry aunty, just be sure not to ingest something that's given by a stranger."
Lu Mei and Feng Baoli smiled as they nodded their head, after that, Feng Baoli and Lu Mei invited Mo Xie to eat, but he rejected.
"I still need to go back to my Wife, she will definitely be worried, I had been out for more than half a day."
Lu Mei smiled as she nodded: "That's good, I didn't think that Little Mo is quite capable, even having a wife as soon as you found a job."
They joked for some more before Mo Xie left bidding his farewell to the couple.
When he Mo Xie is in the distant, his smiling face vanished and is replaced by rage.
"Gu Clan... to use a Gu Insect wantonly and made a citizen of the Gangting City as your incubator, hmmp! I will not be a human if I don't destroy such a clan!"
Gu Insects were the violet looking liquid that came out of Lu Mei's finger, it had a form at first, but due to the medicinal herb that Mo Xie had made, it exploded and turned into a liquid, a Gu Insect has different kinds, some are for healing, some for killing, all sorts of them are bred differently, but a majority of it uses living beings as an incubator, once it finishes eating the living being, it will come out stronger.
Usually, these sort of bugs are taken care of as they were planted into demon beast or normal beast, and if they succeeded, they will become strong.
Only minor numbers of Gu Cultivators use human as a medium for their pets to grow, every single Gu experts that Mo Xie had encountered that killed humans before were slaughtered by him, not even a chance to retaliate.
But now, he saw it happening again, his debtor even suffered, Mo Xie felt clearly enraged, such inhumane treatment, he really wants to kill them now.
"Once I started to cultivate, the first one to go is the Gu Clan!"
Mo Xie's eyes reddened with fury as he started to walk back to his house.
Mo Xie made his way back to the Sword Dragon Security Association and gave part of the reward to the receptionist.
"This... A gold tael?"
