Seeing that Mo Mo had stopped, Iyeas and Shayou, who had been tempted by Mo Mo, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Then Iyeas continued, "That's right, we can give you all our money, as long as you let Shayou go. And if you let Shayou go, I'm willing to work for you for free for a year. I'm very strong, and I believe I can earn a lot of money for you within this year."
"This condition sounds pretty good." A smile appeared on Mo Mo's face. Just when Iyeas and Shayou thought Mo Mo was about to agree, he suddenly chuckled wickedly, "However, I refuse. Compared to money, I prefer this little beauty in front of me. Besides, I can easily buy you and take you to the capital. According to you, if you are really strong, your price should be quite good, enough for me to spend for quite a while. And when I've spent all that money, I'll be pretty much tired of this little beauty. Then I can sell her to a brothel. With this little beauty's figure and looks, even if she's no longer a virgin, I believe she can fetch a good price. As for the money you have, it was originally mine! Hahaha!"
Hearing Mo Mo's words, Iyeas and Shayou were stunned, then their faces filled with despair. Shayou stopped struggling altogether, her eyes blankly staring at the leaves swaying in the wind. Even when Mo Mo lifted her clothes, revealing her white belly, she remained unmoved. Mo Mo knew the principle of moderation, so he leaned down and gently kissed Shayou's white forehead. Then, under her puzzled gaze, he untied the vines that had turned her hands red and raw, and said softly, "You should be glad you met me, otherwise it wouldn't just be a fright, it would be a real nightmare."
P.S.: Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone!

Chapter 382 Traveling Together
Mo Mo gently untied the rattan binding Sha You and said softly, "You should be glad you met me today, otherwise it wouldn't just be a fright, it would be a real nightmare." After saying that, Mo Mo put his arm around Sha You's slender waist and helped her up, gently tidying her messy hair and brushing the dirt and dust off her body.
"You, you're willing to let us go?" It wasn't until Mo Mo tidied her messy hair and brushed the dust off her that Sha You came back to her senses from despair. As she asked this question, Mo Mo had already arrived at the tree where Iyeas was tied up. With a wave of his hand, he cut all the vines binding Iyeas. Sha You's pupils shrank when she saw this; she saw the fleeting glint of sword light in Mo Mo's hand.
After releasing Iyeas, Mo Mo continued calmly, "Your vigilance is really too poor, and you have no sense of precaution at all. In the middle of nowhere, you actually ate my grilled fish without any precautions after getting my permission, and you even brazenly exposed your weaknesses to my blade."
Mo Mo interrupted Iyeas and Shayou, who were about to retort with indignation, but Mo Mo said, "Are you trying to say that I used despicable means to poison the fish I fed you?" Iyeas and Shayou nodded fiercely upon hearing this.
Mo Mo showed a hint of disdain upon seeing this and said, "Although I did use a sleeping potion, I didn't put it in the grilled fish I served you. Instead, I just casually added a sleeping potion when you were halfway through your meal. This potion is not only slow-acting but also has a faint fragrance. Yet you didn't notice it at all from beginning to end. You deserved to be drugged."
“Big brother, we think you’re sunny and handsome, full of a sense of justice, not like a bad person at all. Besides, how many bad people are there in the world? And shouldn’t everyone work together to guard against dangerous species in the wild? Who would be like you, big brother, who would drug people so easily?” Seeing that Mo Mo really didn’t mean to harm them, but was actually teaching them, Sha You gradually returned to normal.
"Don't look like bad guys? You expect to work with others in the wild to guard against dangerous species? I have to say, you're really just kids fresh out of school, ridiculously naive. If you continue with this mentality, I advise you to go back to where you came from. Even if you go to the capital, you'll just be adding two more cold corpses to the capital, utterly meaningless." After saying this, Mo Mo ignored the two and walked out through the bushes.
Shayou and Iyeas were surprised that Momo left immediately after speaking. By the time they came to their senses, Momo had already walked out of the woods. At this moment, the two of them suddenly realized what was happening, looked at each other, and shouted, "Big brother, wait for us! We know we were wrong. Please let us follow you from now on!" Then they followed him.
Once outside the woods, Mo Mo looked up at the sun and saw that it was only beginning to set slightly in the west; the sun was still very bright. So, Mo Mo extinguished the fire and found a shady spot a little further away from it to lie down. He planned to rest for a while and continue his journey when the sun was a bit lower. Just then, Sha You and Iyeas ran out of the woods. Their eyes lit up when they saw Mo Mo, and they ran to his side and lay down in the same way he did.
Mo Mo turned and glanced at the two men. They immediately called out, "Big Brother!" Mo Mo had come early to rescue them, and since they were now staying with him, it would save him the trouble of searching for them. So Mo Mo didn't deny their "Big Brother," but simply turned back and closed his eyes. A faint joy flashed in their eyes, and they too closed their eyes, this time placing their hands on their weapons. Mo Mo, with his eyes closed, smiled slightly; his teaching had been quite effective.
However, Mo Mo sighed inwardly once again that these two were too naive. They believed him so easily. Mo Mo had just untied the vines binding them, yet after a few words, they were completely trusting of him. If Mo Mo really had ulterior motives, he could probably sell them off and they would happily help him count the money.
However, they can't be entirely blamed. After all, they were just fifteen or sixteen-year-old kids who had just come from a simple village, full of hope for the future. Although the villagers taught them swordsmanship and survival skills in the wild, experience is something that can't be taught. This is why the three of them, despite their considerable strength, ended up in such a predicament. They underestimated the darkness of human nature and the cruelty of the capital.
A gentle breeze blew by, bringing a touch of coolness, but Sha You couldn't fall asleep. Every time she closed her eyes, her mind was filled with Mo Mo's face, especially after she learned that Mo Mo's actions towards her earlier were just to make them understand the cruelty of the world. The memory, which should have been a nightmare, made her heart flutter, even though she had never been so intimate with a boy before. Mo Mo's domineering manner and mischievous smile at that time made her unable to extricate herself. So she turned to her side, propped her head up with one hand, and stared blankly at Mo Mo's face.
Mo Mo naturally felt Sha You's gaze, so he closed his eyes and said calmly, "Take advantage of the time now and rest. You must be tired after traveling for so long. We still have to travel later this afternoon."
Mo Mo's words exposed her true feelings, and Sha You's pretty face instantly turned red. She quickly lay back down in her seat, closed her eyes tightly, and pretended that nothing had happened. However, the two of them had been traveling for so many days and were indeed tired. As soon as they relaxed, they fell asleep.
The wind gently rustled the leaves, and unknown insects chirped tirelessly in the forest. Under the shade of the trees, two men and a woman lay quietly on the grass, while not far away, a strange-looking tiger lay in the river with its eyes closed, calm and peaceful. However, this scene was strange because it took place in the jungle where danger could appear at any time.
Time passed quietly, and the sun in the sky had already shifted westward. The heat of the sunlight was much less than at noon. Around three o'clock in the afternoon, Mo Mo, who was lying on the grass, opened his eyes, sat up, and gently shook Sha You, who was leaning against him, to wake her up. Then he went out and kicked Iyeas, who had rolled to the other side. It was time for them to get up and continue their journey.
When the two got up and saw Mo Mo's evil tiger, they were immediately shocked and exclaimed. When Mo Mo asked them to ride the evil tiger together, they were even more surprised and delighted. After receiving Mo Mo's confirmation, the two jumped onto the back of the evil tiger in disbelief. The evil tiger, including its tail, was nearly five meters long, more than enough to seat three people. However, to Mo Mo's dismay, Sha You actually sat in front of him, claiming that she was afraid of losing her balance and falling off, and then leaned into Mo Mo's arms.
The next day at noon, the capital city welcomed three somewhat special young people.

Chapter 383 Arrival in the Capital
Mo Mo, Iyeas, and Shayou traveled all afternoon and only came across a small village before dark. They stayed in the village for the night and continued their journey, finally arriving in the capital at noon the next day. Mo Mo released the evil tiger.
Mo Mo originally intended to eat it before entering the city. After all, this dangerous species was like or even worse than wild beasts in the real world. Wild beasts in the real world would not attack humans indiscriminately, but these dangerous species were different. As long as they encountered humans, whether they were full or hungry, they would definitely take the initiative to attack, and it would be a fight to the death. Unless you subdue them with absolute force, they were impossible to control. So Mo Mo never thought of letting it go. However, Sha You and Iyeas disagreed, and Mo Mo didn't really want to eat it. He was just preparing to give the two of them an extra meal based on the principle of not wasting food. Since they didn't want to eat it, Mo Mo was too lazy to bother. So he let the evil tiger leave on its own, and then the three of them walked into the capital.
On the surface, the capital city is indeed very prosperous, with predominantly European-style architecture and numerous two- or three-story villas lining the streets. Besides ordinary residences, it's dotted with taverns and inns, bustling with merchants and a constant stream of horse-drawn carriages. The taverns and stalls are filled with people from all walks of life, their voices echoing through the air as they haggle. However, beneath this prosperous surface lies a treacherous and dark society, rife with evil, rampant with wickedness, and plagued by evil spirits, leaving the people destitute.
"Is this the capital? It's so prosperous! We'll definitely make a name for ourselves here!" Looking at the bustling streets, Iyeas spoke as if making a declaration. His voice was low but full of determination. However, he didn't notice that the passersby, after hearing his declaration, smiled with a mixture of mockery and self-deprecation, and then just walked away. They had seen too many young people like this before. In the end, these young people either became skeletons or henchmen of those evil people.
Although Mo Mo had never been to the capital before, he wasn't as bewildered as Iyeas and Shayou. Although he wasn't familiar with the capital, he had too many experiences like this. So, after looking up at the taverns and inns on both sides of the street, he calmly said to Shayou and Iyeas, who were looking around, "Let's go. Let's find a tavern to eat first, and then find a place to stay. If you want to make a name for yourself, you have to fill your stomach first."
Without exception, all the taverns and restaurants here serve Japanese or European cuisine. Although Mo Mo doesn't dislike it, he's not entirely used to it, since he's always eaten mostly Chinese food. So, the three of them eventually went into a seafood restaurant. However, despite the name, there wasn't much seafood; instead, most of the dishes were river fish. In the end, Mo Mo and his friends ordered a river crab the size of a washbasin and a rice bowl with three portions of river fish.
Iyeas and Sayo had lived in the village since they were little, and had never eaten such food before. In addition, the food was quite delicious, so the two of them instantly turned into foodies and finished their food in a few minutes. While they were finishing their river fish rice bowl, Mo Mo had already peeled a plate of crystal-clear crab meat. After Iyeas finished his own rice bowl, he stared longingly at the rice bowl that Mo Mo had pushed aside, while Sayo looked at the plate of crystal-clear crab meat in front of Mo Mo.
Mo Mo was speechless for a moment, then pushed the river seafood rice bowl in front of Iyeas and said indifferently, "You eat it. This rice is too sweet for me. I'll just eat the crab."
Iyeas was taken aback by Mo Mo's actions, then overjoyed. He picked up the bowl of river seafood rice and began to devour it. Mo Mo's words weren't entirely perfunctory; the rice was drizzled with honey, which Mo Mo didn't really like. Sayou, watching Iyeas eat, pouted because she wanted some too. However, Mo Mo pushed the rice towards Iyeas. Just then, Mo Mo suddenly took the plate in front of her, divided a large portion of the crab meat from the bowl in front of him, filled the plate to the brim, and then placed it back in front of Sayou.
Sha You, who was initially feeling a little sour, was stunned for a moment when she saw Mo Mo's sudden action, but then her face was full of surprise. Under Mo Mo's somewhat astonished gaze, Sha You looked at him affectionately, and then sweetly ate the plate of crab meat.
Honestly, Mo Mo didn't mean to flatter Sha You. It was just an unconscious action on his part. It was a habit of his long-standing. Whenever he ate with a girl, whether he knew her well or not, he would always take extra care of her. After all, girls sometimes have things that are inconvenient or difficult for them to do, such as peeling crabs, especially large crabs that haven't had their shells removed beforehand. However, he didn't expect that this unconscious action might have caused Sha You to misunderstand.
Should he explain? Mo Mo decisively refused. He was joking. Looking at Sha You's sweet expression, if he explained to her now that she had misunderstood and that it was just a habit of his, and that he had no other intentions towards her.
Mo Mo was certain that if he really said that, although Sha You wouldn't go berserk, she would definitely run away heartbroken. And regardless of how heartbroken Sha You was, she would lose all face in front of her best friend because of Mo Mo's words. She would probably never be able to hold her head up in front of Iyeas again. So for now, he could only let the misunderstanding continue. If he wanted to explain, he could only talk to her alone afterward.
The meal lasted for more than half an hour. Even Mo Mo secretly breathed a sigh of relief when it was finally over. Halfway through the meal, Iyeas noticed Shayou's unusual behavior. So, while peeling and eating crabs, he would occasionally glance at Mo Mo with a strange look on his face. On the other hand, Shayou was eating the crabs that Mo Mo had peeled with a sweet expression, while looking at Mo Mo with affection. Her fiery gaze made Mo Mo feel a little overwhelmed.
After lunch, in accordance with the agreement between Ieyasu, Sayo, and Tatsumi, the two decided to join the Imperial Capital Guard, and then make a name for themselves through their own strength, so that they could get ahead and send the money they earned back to their village to improve their lives. However, Mo Mo did not think highly of the two, because the Imperial Capital Guard was already corrupt and rotten, and it was impossible to get ahead through strength alone, not to mention whether they could even get in.
Sure enough, when the two confidently arrived at the Imperial Capital Guard's recruitment office, registered, and demonstrated their superior martial arts skills under the examiner's guidance, they were unsuccessful. The reason was simple: the two didn't understand the examiner's instructions. Not only did they not pay, but they also beat the examiner up. No wonder they couldn't be selected. The examiner who tried to take advantage of Sayou even had his outstretched hand broken by Sayou's kick. In the end, the two not only failed to join the guard team, but they also had to pay the other party's medical expenses with all the money they had. The two also learned the real reason for their failure from the conversation of the people around them.
"Brother, I'm starting to believe what you said. I never imagined that getting into the guard wasn't about ability, but about bribery. What are we going to do now? Not only have we not joined the guard, but we've also spent all the money we had left," Iyeas said dejectedly.
"What else can we do? While we still have time, let's hurry up and look around to see if we can find a job, otherwise we might have to sleep on the streets tonight." Mo Mo said nonchalantly, as if he wasn't the one who would be sleeping on the streets. Mo Mo wasn't worried about sleeping on the streets tonight because he had noticed someone was watching them after they finished eating. Although he didn't know who it was, at least they had a place to stay tonight, so he wasn't worried at all. However, Iyeas and Shayou, who were completely unaware of the situation, were different. As soon as they heard that they would have to sleep on the streets, they became anxious and started looking for jobs with Mo Mo.

Chapter 384 A Fateful Encounter
Although they started looking for work in the afternoon, which gave them plenty of time, they couldn't find a suitable job, let alone get paid, until the sun began to set. The reason was simple: they were too young. They were looking for jobs like guarding or transporting goods, so they encountered setbacks at every turn. As the sun began to set, they changed their job requirements, but the outcome was unexpected. Even porters wouldn't hire them, again for the same reason: they were too young.
Although they claimed to be very capable, and they were indeed capable, no one would easily believe the words of two kids who were only fifteen or sixteen years old, especially since one of them was a delicate young girl. So, until the sun was about to set, they still hadn't earned a single penny. Instead, they were starving because they had exhausted themselves from running around.
Finally, the two looked to Mo Mo for help, because in their view, Mo Mo was so experienced and hadn't been nervous at all along, so he must have a solution or money on hand. However, Mo Mo shook his head and said softly to their disappointed gazes, "I do have a solution, but I won't take action. You won't learn your lesson until you've experienced it. Since this is the bitter fruit you brewed yourself, you'll have to taste it. But don't worry, I'll be with you."
Hearing that Mo Mo had a solution, the two men's eyes lit up, but when they heard that Mo Mo wouldn't help, the light in their eyes dimmed again. Looking at the dwindling number of pedestrians on the street and the sun gradually disappearing on the horizon, Iyeas said with a look of shame, "Brother, we know we were wrong. We've made you camp in the wild with us again tonight. But don't worry, brother, tomorrow, I will definitely find a job and earn money."
“Iyeas is right, Brother Momo. We will definitely work hard. We want to earn a lot of money and send it back to the village. We also want to find another partner, Tatsumi. He is very capable. When we work together, we will definitely make a name for ourselves in the capital.” Hearing what Iyeas said, Sayo was also filled with fighting spirit.
"Oh? Good fighting spirit. Then we'll see how you perform tomorrow. Now, take advantage of the city gates before they close and head out, otherwise you won't be able to leave once they're closed." With that, Mo Mo turned and walked towards the city gate, and Sha You and Iyeas quickly followed. Just then, a magnificent carriage, bathed in the last rays of the sun, slowly approached them. Mo Mo watched the carriage, seemingly bathed in golden light in the sunset, and a slight smile appeared on his lips. The person he was waiting for had finally arrived.
Mo Mo and his companions were not far from the carriage, only forty or fifty meters away. With their eyesight, even though the carriage was traveling with its back to the light while they were facing the light, the last rays of sunlight were not dazzling. Therefore, Sha You and Iyeas could see the carriage clearly. It was precisely because of this that Sha You and Iyeas couldn't help but take a few more glances at the magnificent carriage with several guards accompanying it. Just as the two sides were about to pass each other, the carriage suddenly stopped, and the guards beside the carriage reached out to stop Mo Mo and his companions.
Just as Sayo and Iyeas were filled with doubt, the carriage curtain was suddenly lifted from the inside, revealing a pretty and cute face. It was a girl who looked only fifteen or sixteen years old. Although she wasn't particularly beautiful, she was still charming and cute, with long, golden curly hair falling over her shoulders. A pure smile graced her face, and under Sayo and Iyeas's questioning gaze, she said with a smile, "You've come to the capital from out of town, haven't you? Judging from your appearance, you haven't found a place to stay yet. Why don't you come to my house? My parents love out-of-towners like you the most."
Just after the girl spoke, the guard who had stopped Mo Mo and his companions also said, "You are really lucky to have met Miss Arya. Miss Arya is a well-known philanthropist in the capital. She would even take in and help stray animals. You outsiders are very fortunate."
"Really? Miss Arya, you're willing to take us in?" Ieyas exclaimed in surprise upon hearing Arya and the guard's words, while Sayo beside him was also beaming with joy. Mo Mo, though smiling, didn't show any delight in his eyes; instead, his eyes were filled with irony. In the original story, Ieyas and Sayo had fallen victim to this little girl named Arya. After following Arya back to her home, they were drugged in their food, rendered unconscious, and ultimately suffered horrific torture before dying a miserable death. Perhaps it was fate, but despite the many evil deeds rampant in the capital, including human trafficking, it was she who had come to Mo Mo and his companions. And this time, with Mo Mo involved, the ending was destined to be rewritten.
Seeing Mo Mo and the others' reaction, Arya's smile grew even brighter. She said with delight, "Of course it's true! Our family will definitely welcome you very much. If you'd like, you can even stay and work for us. We have many people like you in our family, and I believe you'll soon become one of them too."
"Brother, I told you, there are still many good people in the capital. We have a place to stay tonight, and our work issues have been resolved. Thank you so much, Miss Arya." Iyeas was very excited. He first made a face at Mo Mo as if showing off, and then bowed deeply to Arya to express his gratitude.
Mo Mo's lips curled into a wicked smile. Iyeas and the others were unaware of the inside story and couldn't understand the meaning behind Arya's words, but Mo Mo was familiar with the plot. At first glance, the sentence seemed very ordinary, just a welcome to their arrival, but Mo Mo, who knew the plot well, knew the meaning behind Arya's words.
As Arya said, her family did welcome them very much, and they genuinely liked outsiders like Ieyas and his group. However, this liking wasn't the usual kind between people; it was more like a fondness for toys. They truly welcomed Momo and his group to their home because it meant they would have the opportunity to keep them there. But keeping Momo and his group wasn't to have them work for them; rather, it was to make them toys to satisfy their perverse desires.
On the surface, Arya's family appears to be just an ordinary wealthy merchant family, but in reality, they are all beasts and demons in human skin. They are cruel, bloodthirsty, and often take pleasure in torturing and killing others. Their teenage daughter, Arya, uses her innocent and cute appearance to lure outsiders to their home in the capital, drug them, and then imprison them for their torment and pleasure. The naive Ieyas and Sayo believe it all. However, Mo Mo does not expose them. He doesn't want to ruin this show. He really wants to know what kind of expression the two will have when they learn the truth. Will they kill the other party like Tatsumi, or will they be heartbroken and never recover?
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 385 A "Hospitable" Family
Arya's family estate is very large, covering tens of thousands of square meters. The fact that they own such a large estate in the capital city clearly indicates that their family is not simple; they are definitely not just ordinary wealthy merchants. In the original series, Arya's father once said that he had several good brothers in the army and could ask them to help Tatsumi find Sayo and Yu. Obviously, this was not just talk, but a real connection. However, this was meaningless to Mo Mo and the others.
Just as Arya said, her family did indeed welcome Momo and his group very warmly. When her parents heard that Arya had brought Momo and his group back, they immediately prepared a delicious meal as if they had cooked in the kitchen, and personally went out to the hall to greet them. The ceremony was almost excessive. The guards, however, were not surprised at all. If you looked closely, you could see the deep-seated sarcasm and cruelty hidden in the guards. However, Iyas and Sayo were already stunned by the enthusiasm of Arya and her parents and did not notice any of this.
The dinner was held together in Arya's living room. The food was plentiful and exquisite, and tasted much better than what you'd find outside. It was clear that the chef had put in a great deal of effort; he had completely masked the distinctive taste of the drug with the ingredients, making it difficult for ordinary people to detect. In addition, Arya's family chatted with Mo Mo and his companion very enthusiastically during the meal, further lowering their guard. What was most ingenious was that although the drug was very potent, it didn't take effect quickly. Moreover, when it took effect, it felt like being sleepy, rather than immediately causing someone to lose consciousness; rather, it was a continuous effect.
Soon, all the dishes on the table were finished. After the meal, Arya's maid quickly cleared the table, while Arya's parents led Momo and the others to a small table next to them for a cup of tea. Their purpose was obvious: to wait for the medicine to take effect.
It has to be said that this family's acting skills were excellent. They were all smiles from beginning to end, and they were quite skilled at conversation. The family chatted quite happily with Sayu and the others, and bursts of cheerful laughter could be heard from the living room from time to time. Mo Mo would occasionally chime in with a word or two. Perhaps because Mo Mo was not bad-looking and had a good figure, Arya's mother frequently turned her gaze to Mo Mo, and it was unclear what she was planning.
About half an hour later, Iyeas and Sayo started yawning, and it became more and more frequent. Although Mo Mo was not affected, in order to keep the show going, he also started yawning like the two of them. When the Arya family saw this, a hint of joy immediately appeared in their eyes, but it was quickly hidden.
Judging that it was about time, Arya's father glanced at the completely dark sky outside the door and said with a smile, "It's getting late. The three of you must be tired from traveling for days. I've arranged guest rooms and put out changes of clothes. You should wash up and go to bed early tonight. We can talk about anything else tomorrow."
Ieyas and Sayo, already exhausted from the effects of the drug, were overjoyed upon hearing this. They said "Goodnight" to Arya and her parents and then quickly had someone lead the way. On the way to their room, Ieyas kept praising Arya's family, and the maid who led them to their room was filled with pride, her words brimming with admiration and longing for her masters. What Ieyas and Sayo didn't see was the deep sarcasm and indifference in the maid's eyes as she looked at Mo Mo and his companions.
The room that Aria's family arranged for Mo Mo and his companions wasn't far from the living room, only a minute or two away, so they arrived quickly. The manor, resembling a European castle, was quite well-decorated, looking magnificent yet dignified. Even at night, it didn't feel eerie, which greatly impressed Iyeas and Sayo. They kept exclaiming in amazement along the way. When they saw the opulent decorations in their room and the large bed that was over two meters wide and three meters long, they were even more shocked and speechless. Then, with a gasp, they threw off their luggage and jumped onto the bed, rolling around excitedly.
Mo Mo, who was looking around her room, smiled slightly when she heard the two exclamations, thinking to herself, "I hope you can still laugh later." Then she picked up the snow-white bathrobe and underwear from the bed and walked into the private bathroom that every guest room had. A dozen seconds later, the sound of running water could be heard.
When Mo Mo came out after taking a shower, there was no sound from Iyeas and Sayou's room. Mo Mo knew without looking that the two must have fallen asleep. Soon, Arya's family would probably come with guards. So Mo Mo lay down on the soft bed and closed his eyes. Soon, even and long breathing could be heard from the bed.
About an hour later, a series of crisp footsteps echoed down the corridor. Judging from the sound, there were nine people. Two of them had lighter footsteps, and one had heavier ones. They were probably Arya and her family of three. The remaining six were likely their guards, who were there to escort Mo Mo and the others to their designated location. After all, Arya and her family were delicate and precious, and it would be quite difficult to move Mo Mo and the others to the warehouse in the backyard.
A few seconds later, the footsteps stopped at Ieyas's door, followed by a series of knocks and shouts. After several seconds of shouting, the knocking stopped, followed by the sound of a key turning and the door opening. It was clear that after confirming that Ieyas was unconscious inside, they opened the door and brought him out.
Afterwards, Iyeas went to Sayo's room, which was right next to Momo's room, so the sound was even louder. It was clear that this was not the first time these guards had done this; their movements were very practiced. Moreover, they did not take advantage of the beautiful girl Sayo, who offered no resistance. It was obvious that they had been given strict orders before the operation. However, even if they wanted to take advantage, it would be impossible, because Momo had already placed a restriction on Sayo and Iyeas when he returned to his room. Once they had any evil thoughts, the restriction would be activated and pull them into the illusion array.
To Mo Mo's surprise, when it was his turn, the guards did not help him up or take him away. Instead, they quickly pulled out four very strong ropes from the four corners of the bed to fix Mo Mo's limbs and then left, leaving only Arya and her mother behind.
After the guards left, Arya and her mother climbed onto Momo's bed. Then, Arya's mother fed Momo a pill. As soon as the pill entered his mouth, Momo knew it was the antidote for the sleeping drug. Although he didn't know what the mother and daughter were going to do, Momo did not resist and let them do as they pleased. After giving Momo the antidote, the two started talking about how to torture him and how to make him suffer.
A little over a minute later, Arya's mother gave Momo another pill, then grabbed Momo's shoulders and shook him gently, softly calling his name. Momo cooperated perfectly, pretending to have just woken up, opening his eyes with a dazed expression. When he saw Arya's mother kneeling beside him, he exclaimed and tried to sit up, but was tightly bound by ropes. Arya and her mother smiled at this.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 386 Torture
Although Arya's family could be described as wicked to the core, it must be said that the mother and daughter were indeed quite good-looking. One was youthful and cute, and the other was mature and charming. Their sudden smiles were indeed quite captivating, at least to ordinary people. However, Mo Mo still showed a lecherous look, and his breathing gradually became heavier because Arya's mother had given Mo Mo an aphrodisiac, and the effect was quite strong for ordinary people.
Of course, this expression only lasted for a moment. After all, Mo Mo was still tied up, and the drug's effects would take a little while to take effect. So, Mo Mo immediately feigned confusion and asked the two, "Miss Arya, how did you get into my room? And why am I tied up? Could you help me untie the ropes?"
"Little handsome boy, don't you understand yet? It's us who tied you up. As for why we tied you up, you'll find out in a moment." Arya's mother finished speaking and gave Mo Mo a charming smile, sticking out her tongue to lick her crystal red lips. That moment of charm was full of endless allure, and Mo Mo cooperated by increasing his breathing.
Just then, Mo Mo seemed to suddenly realize something and shouted, "What did you do to me? Why is my body so hot? What did you feed me?"
