158- A Lesson for both 4
Orochi did not kill Ethan imdiately.
There is also another reason that he let Ethan stab him.
When Ethan moved, Orochi had already sensed it. But he did not defend against Ethans attack even if he had the power to do so.
Its not that he likes to inflict injury on himself or has masochist tendencies, but he wanted to teach Arlia the price that has to be paid when you make wrong decisions.
Arlia has a pure personality. And Orochi who wants to go on a journey to beco stronger, if he carries Arlia along with him, then he will face many difficulties.
Just like how she asked to spare Ethans life on so girls pleading, there will be many similar cases in the future.
And if she remains the sa, then one day either she would die or Orochi would die. Or maybe both would die.
Well, as Orochi has promised to protect Arlia then it ans, if sothing happens to her, Orochi is going to die. So, he can only get injured and hope that it stimulates Arlia to make wise decisions in the future and not to be swayed by emotions.
In exchange for his injury, Orochi hopes that this ti Arlia has learns her lesson.
But of course, he let Ethan stab him, but that doesnt an that he did not take precautions. When Ethan was closer, Orochi sensed that Ethan is aiming for his heart, so when pushed Arlia and turned to face Ethan, he positioned his body properly and let Ethan miss his target. So, when Ethan stabbed Orochi, the sword was 2-3 inches away from Orochis heart.
Orochi is ready for self-injury and to teach Arlia so lesson, but that doesnt an he is stupid enough to put his life on the line. So, from other's perspectives, Ethan missed his target, but Orochi, himself knows that he made it look like that.
Now, Orochi is waiting for Arlias decision.
If Arlia still does not understand, then he can only ask June to take Arlia back to the Lamia tribe as he cannot take soone who will hinder his path. Even if he loves her that doesnt an that he will ignore this kind of thing. As for the future, once he is the most powerful person on this continent, then he would be able to manage everything.
So, Orochi is waiting for Arlias decision.
If she has the sa attitude, then Arlia will go back, if not, the journey will continue.
.
After few monts of hesitation, Arlia finally opened her mouth,
Lady, I have already made a mistake by asking my husband to spare your senior brothers life. And the result of that was your senior brother almost stabbed my husbands heart. It was luck that my husband is still alive. I wont make the sa mistake. So, get out of the way, if not you will also die with your senior brother.
Hearing this, Orochi was sowhat surprised.
He expected that either Arlia would request again to spare them or to only kill Ethan and spare others.
But surprisingly, Arlia warned Pamila and said that all of them would die if she doesnt move away from there.
Well, thats to be expected. When it cos to situations where soone close to heart is threatened and is almost killed, then the person, no matter how peace loving or kind, will pick up a knife and try to kill the opponent, and wont care about his own life.
Or maybe, Arlia is trying to scare Pamila and the warning is just words.
Orochi believes that it might be the latter reason, but anyway, its great progress.
Hearing Arlias words, Pamila shouted anxiously,
Please miss, I promise that this will not happen again. And I also promise that we wont drag this matter further and will not bring any problems in the future. We will not hold you accountable for any damage. Please spare him... please...
No need.
Without letting Arlia speak, Orochi slashed his sword and Pamilas head separated from her body.
bang
Pamilas body fell on the ground and her eyes still begged for rcy.

Then Orochi passed by Pamilas body and moved to Ethan.
Arlia, when she saw Orochi killing Pamila, her mood beca complicated.
.
Orochi slashed his sword and aid for Ethans neck.

A huge amount of energy surged within Orochis body as due to level up all his stats are increasing at an astonishing rate. This surge of energy caused a very low disturbance and Arlia who was the closest person to him did not notice this. But if it was soone else with high cultivation then they would surely notice this.
It took a mont for the change to subside, Orochi felt extrely comfortable.
Then without paying attention to him or the system notifications, Orochis focus shifted to Jashan who was preparing to escape but stopped as he saw Orochi looking at him.
Imdiately he knelt on the ground and started begging for rcy,
Please spare... It was my senior brother who forced us to attack... please spare ...
Listening to this, Orochi showed a small smile and said,
Why should I spare you?
Listening to this Jashan was confused for a mont and then shouted,
Please senior... please forgive ... I am innocent... I did not want to attack you or your wife... it was the senior brother that did it... that bastard forced us to do so... I did not have any choice... if I dont follow his commands... then after returning to the sect, he will make trouble for ... his master is a powerful guy in the sect... I had no choice but to follow his orders... please senior... please spare...
Suddenly a thought ca to his mind and he quickly shouted,
Senior if you spare my life, I will tell you a big secret. This is the reason why my senior brother attacked you. He did not want to let anyone find his secret.
Listening to this, Orochis eyes brightened but he did not show it. The reason he was willing to waste few words with Jashan was that he was interested in this secret. That's he asked the reason why should I spare you.'
Oh... lets hear it... I would like to know whats so special about this secret that made your senior brother attack us. If it is really so special, I dont mind letting you off...
