"If that happens, the one who gets hurt or killed might be you, it might be Gu Peng, or it could even be me."
Gu Lele quickly shook her head. "No! Lele doesn't want my brother or Brother Mo to get hurt!"
"So you have to remember: being merciful to your enemies is being cruel to yourself!" Mo Qi added.
Gu Lele nodded emphatically. "Lele understands."
"Very good!" Mo Qi raised his hand, and a mass of purplish-black blood appeared in his palm. "Come on. Take back the glory that is rightfully yours!"
Gu Lele stared at the mass of purplish-black blood. 'This is it,' she knew. 'This is the source of my suffering for so many years—the so-called Talent Bloodline.'
"What do I need to do?" Gu Lele asked.
Mo Qi explained, "All the meridians in your body are ruined, and your flesh has congealed. As the saying goes, 'one must be broken to be rebuilt.' To house the Shadow Kill Bloodline again, we need to shatter your meridians once more, break down your flesh, and then remold your body."
