The Story Of Dusk

Mo Xuan Fei had closed his eyes, resigned to his fate when he heard Mo Qian Yuan"s voice.

"Work for me and I will let you go." Mo Qian Yuan bent down, so he could be in the same eye level with him as he raised Mo Xuan Fei"s head to look back at him. "Work for me and I will let this slide."

A derisive smile appeared in the corner of his b.l.o.o.d.y lips, his eyes had lost its spark, they look like they were dead.

"What crazy motivation that you have until you can think that I will work for you?" Mo Xuan Fei hissed in disgust.

"You will work for me because I said so." Mo Qian Yuan raised one of his eyebrows challengingly, dared Mo Xuan Fei to say otherwise. "You will not regret it and thank me in the end." He added.

The prince looked at his father, but there was nothing in his eyes except hatred. He had buried this hatred for years and carried it like a burden. He couldn"t be possible to keep walking with this anymore, let alone live with it since Mo Qian Yuan had been aware about this.

"Thanks you?" A mocking tone was palpable to hear from his rhetoric question as he chuckled and gurgled, choking his own blood. "You can just kill me." He whispered, but loud enough to the opposite party to hear him and catch the ridicule in his tone.

Mo Qian Yuan, in the other hand, blinked his eyes innocently, bemused with his son stupid decision.

He would never let his son died, at least not until he could use him to the fullest for his own benefit, for this country benefit.

After Mo Jingshen died, he still could afford losing another son, especially the one with no real power and lived his life with poetry and literature. He didn"t need this kind of son!

"I am very sure you will change your mind." The Emperor had something atrocious in his mind as it reflected in his eyes. "Bring her in." He clapped his hand and ordered a eunuch to do something for him.

From the corner of Mo Xuan Fei"s eyes, he could see a movement from someone inside the room, but his vision started to get blur and couldn"t figure out who was that person.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

However, the moment that person comeback, he immediately recognize another person, who was brought by him, with every fiber in his body.

"Don"t you dare to touch her!!!" Mo Xuan Fei roared like a hurting beast, he tried to get away from the guards who were holding him down, with no avail.

In front of his eyes was Lin Xingyan!

But it wasn"t her figure that drove Mo Xuan Fei crazy, but her tattered dress and wound on her left cheek that made him insane!

Her body was covered with bruised as well, blue and purple.

She wasn"t like this the last time Mo Xuan Fei visited her. She was fine at that time, but what happened now?

Mo Xuan Fei couldn"t take his eyes away from the wound on her face! It was the most cruel act committed against woman in this period of time.

Women were valued because of their beauty, especially in harem, no one could survive with scar glaring on their face!

Death much better than this kind of humiliation!

Mo Xuan Fei didn"t believe with the sight before his eyes. The woman that he loved… she was suffered to this extent.

However, in the other hand, Lin Xingyan was like a rag doll neither she cried nor she said a word when she met Mo Xuan Fei"s eyes.

Her eyes were completely misty as if her soul had been sucked out from her body ruthlessly. Only her breathing and her empty eyes, which blinked intermittently, that indicated she was still alive.

"I WILL KILL YOU!!!" Mo Xuan Fei hollered. He struggled with all of his might.

And somehow, he managed to overpower the two guards who were holding him down and a hard punched lied on Mo Qian Yuan"s face.

The Emperor fell back and groaned in agony, he kicked Mo Xuan Fei"s chest, to prevent him to advance closer toward him.

"HOLD HIM!" Mo Qian Yuan thundered. In split of second, the thought to kill him flashed in his mind before he remembered his initial plan.

Mo Xuan Fei couldn"t die yet. He still could use him!

Another guards joined the commotion and in the end, it needed more than five guards to immobilize the prince completely.

"I WILL KILL YOU! I WILL KILL YOU!" Mo Xuan Fei repeated his words again and again, glaring at the Emperor as if he could rip open his chest if he did so. There was no trace of father and son between them anymore. They had turned to be their worst enemy by now.

Mo Qian Yuan stood up and kicked Mo Xuan Fei"s face harder as he spat on him. "You still dare to threaten me!?" He scoffed. "Look how pathetic you are now! Your life and hers are in my mercy!" He pointed his chin toward Lin Xingyan.

Covered in blood, Mo Xuan Fei still shouted incoherent words as he kept struggling to break away.

"Shut up!" Mo Qian Yuan slapped Lin Xingyan hard. "Keep talking and I will beat her to death!"

Mo Xuan Fei swallowed back his curses words, biting down his tongue to prevent him uttered another words.

However, his trembling body screamed how much anger that he had to hold back. He looked away from Lin Xingyan as he couldn"t keep calm the moment he watched her condition.

All the scars, bruised and wound on her body and face as though screaming at him how he had failed to protect her. He once had promised to protect her, but he couldn"t fulfill it.

She was suffering. The beautiful woman that she loved had suffered and became like this, it was all because of him. He made her felt this pain!

Only if he let her go in the first place, they wouldn"t end up in their current state.

She would be still the royal concubine and lived her life in luxury, even without love, she would live safe and sound.

While him…

The thought of losing her made his mind disarray. He knew it was so wrong, but the absent of regret made Mo Xuan Fei became more frustrated.

In all honesty, he didn"t regret all the wrong things that he had done. But, to see Lin Xingyan suffered and lost her soul like this, he felt someone had stabbed a dagger in his heart and twisted it ruthlessly. The agony was hard to bear.

"What do you want?" Mo Xuan Fei yielded and asked through gritted teeth.

Only when he heard his question, a genuine smile appeared on his face. "Not much." Mo Qian Yuan said lightly.

Mo Xuan Fei"s eyes hardened. Who would believe with his "not much"?

"For the starter, I want you to spy on Prince Xiao Jun. I heard you are quite close with his wife."

"And then?" The worst part had not yet to come. Spying wasn"t a difficult task, as the Emperor, he had hundreds of spies under his command, he didn"t need him to do the job.

"And then…" Mo Qian Yuan drawled. "… I want you to kill him when the time is right."
