Please Spare My Life, Disciple of the Demon Lord

Chapter 284 Guiding Light

"Yellow Spring Road?"

Jiang Tingwan's voice rose a notch. How could she not know these three words? This was the boundary between life and death. If one walked out of the eight hundred miles of yellow sand, one would enter the cycle of reincarnation.

Mu Qingge nodded. "I also needed someone to guide me to where this is, but I have found a way out. Uncle Master, just follow me."

"We are living souls after all. We should not stay here for long. It is best to leave."

Mu Yun finally felt the aura behind the wind and sand, which was dangerous and evil.

Mu Qingge walked in front, and the other three followed behind.

The rising sandstorm blinded Jiang Tingwan, and out of the corner of his eye he saw a light flickering faintly in the distance.

He blurted out: "Is there light ahead?"

Meng Ziyuan looked in her direction, but saw nothing and looked confused.

Jiang Tingwan noticed his expression and asked in surprise, "Didn't you see it?"

She immediately looked at Mu Yunzhong, and saw that Mu Yunzhong's eyes were fixed on hers. "Did you see it?"

Mu Yun nodded, "It's like a lamp."

Seeing this, Meng Ziyuan could only open his eyes wide and try hard to look. He rubbed his eyes again and again, but still saw nothing.

Meng Ziyuan: "Where is the light? Did you see it wrong?"

Mu Qingge looked in the direction of the two people. Although he didn't see anything, there was a gleam in his eyes.

"They are not mistaken. It is the love and reliance of the deceased on the living. The separated part of their spiritual consciousness turns into a lamp on the Yellow Spring Road, guiding the person they care about out of the 800-mile yellow sand."

"Someone you're worried about?"

Mu Qingge's words evoked Jiang Tingwan's memory. That was her setting for this world. But who would create this lamp for her and Mu Yunzhong at the same time?

"It's Bai Wangshu." Xinhai's voice came. This was the first time that Suijiu gave the answer before Jiang Tingwan made his judgment.

Suijiu's voice was full of pleading, and Jiang Tingwan could hear it. Not only her, but she herself couldn't help but say, "I want to go and take a look."

After saying this, she and Mu Yunzhong looked at each other and said, "I want you to go and see her, too. There is only one person who can allow us to see her at the same time."

Mu Yunzhong suddenly knew who the lamp belonged to. During the journey to the realm of awakening, he did not give up his identity as Mu Yunzhong, which also meant that the emotions associated with this identity still truly belonged to him. For Bai Wangshu, she was still the master who raised him.

But after going through so much, does he still only have hatred towards Bai Wangshu?

Mu Qingge didn't know what they were thinking when they looked at each other. Instead, she thought of the person who wanted to find such a lamp in the 800-mile yellow sand. She also knew what such a lamp meant to the person who wanted to see it.

So she said to the two of them, "It will take a while for us to go out. If Third Uncle and Brother Mu want to go see that friend, we can wait for a while."

Jiang Tingwan looked at the understanding Mu Qingge, smiled and nodded.

Mu Yun did not refuse in the end, so he agreed.

Although Meng Ziyuan did not understand the situation, he did not comment.

The direction the four of them were heading turned from the stars to the light that only the two of them could see.

Jiang Tingwan walked in front, but Mu Yunzhong's expression was conflicted.

Seeing this, she took his hand and led him towards the light.

Mu Qingge and Meng Ziyuan behind him looked at each other, somewhat shocked, but after recalling those familiar details, they fell into a tacit silence.

Suijiu: Is this the place in your story where the dead souls can feel relaxed?

She remembered everything Jiang Tingwan said.

Jiang Tingwan: I also want to know this question.

She wanted to know how Bai Wangshu was doing?

The sand under their feet rose with the wind, but it could not stop them from moving forward.

The light in front of them gradually became clearer, the soft gravel under their feet became hard, and they set foot on a different path.

The wind and sand gradually subsided, the air became fresher, the dead trees came back to life in spring, and the light began to appear.

Mu Qingge and Meng Ziyuan, who saw nothing, only saw many clear-minded people walking out of the darkness, shaking off the yellow sand on their bodies, bowing with tears in their eyes towards a certain direction in the air, then wiping their tears and walking forward with a smile.

They only saw spirits, not lanterns.

The lantern that guided them out of the eight hundred miles of yellow sand was hung high on a dead tree with green buds growing on it, and next to it was another dimly lit lantern.

Jiang Tingwan approached the tree, but before she took two steps, a fierce wind blew and made Jiang Tingwan slide backwards. The person behind her held her steadily and raised his hand to split the oncoming wind.

But it also formed a space that only they could enter.

In the eyes of Mu Qingge and Meng Ziyuan, they only saw Jiang Tingwan and Mu Yunzhong suddenly stop in place.

within space.

"As expected, we meet again." After the wind blew past, it turned into a woman in white behind them.

"He can see me in the yellow sand! It seems that you didn't train him very well. Waste!" Bai Wangshu was dressed in white, with his jet-black hair simply gathered behind his head. The light on his body was very soft, but the words he spoke were as cold as ever.

When they met again, Jiang Tingwan's eyes were red and he couldn't help hugging her, "Bai Wangshu! It's great that you didn't disappear."

The sudden hug made Bai Wangshu frown. He wanted to push away, but was held tightly.

"When did I become so close to you?" Bai Wangshu did not push it anymore, but said this deliberately.

Jiang Tingwan left her and said with a smile, "I told you, we are partners and friends. Even if you don't think so, it doesn't matter. I think that's enough."

Bai Wangshu looked at the similar face and saw the joy that was evident in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows. She was always like this, never hiding her joy, anger, sorrow or happiness, which was completely different from himself.

Therefore, even though she clearly felt that she was still alive after that hug, and that she must have accidentally fallen into the yellow sand, rather than being lost after death, she still said what she always said: "Since you are not dead, why are you walking here? Have you had enough of life?"

"We came to see you." Jiang Tingwan replied.

Bai looked at him and frowned: "What's so good about a dead person?"

"See how you are doing?" Jiang Tingwan said seriously, "I also want you to see how we are doing."

After saying this, she also looked at Mu Yunzhong who was standing beside her.

Bai Wangshu followed her gaze and looked at Mu Yunzhong. She saw his strength from his palm strike just now. Now he has far exceeded her expectations. His Tao heart is clear and bright. Not only has he not been possessed by demons, he has also become the most outstanding disciple of Sanyuan Sect.

But this disciple has nothing to do with me.

Bai Wangshu met Mu Yunzhong's gaze. She walked towards him, and said calmly as never before, "Mu Yunzhong."

She called his name, but it was like she was looking at a completely new person, "You've become different."

"You're different too." Mu Yunzhong replied expressionlessly. Facing that familiar yet completely different face, he could no longer tell whether it was love or hate.

"Yes." Bai Wangshu affirmed, glancing at Jiang Tingwan beside him, "Because of the appearance of one person, we have all changed. It seems that my choice was not wrong."

Mu Yun finally looked at the person in front of him, the person he once hated so much, and said, "Is this your choice?"

Bai Wangshu also met his gaze, but it was a relief of letting go of the past, "It's a choice, and it's also atonement. I owe a lot of people in my life, and the one I owe the most is you. I am unworthy of being a teacher, and I created you like this. Whether it's resentment or hatred, it's all my fault."

"So no matter if Jiang Tingwan stops you or not, I will pay for my sins on the Yellow Spring Road. If you are unhappy in this life, I will guide you to the next life. Just like a master and disciple, this is the only thing I, as a master, can do for you."
