Chapter 193 The same face
Chapter 193 The same face
After watching them leave, Mu Yunzhong's expression gradually became gloomy, his eyes became more fierce, and his breath became turbid.
Jiang Tingwan, who had seven bone nails nailed into his body, leaned stiffly against the cold wall, not daring to move at all, as any movement would cause the pain of tearing flesh.
Bai Wangshu used to be hit by a sword once a day, but she was hit seven times as soon as she woke up.
Why is she so unlucky?
When he thought of this, Jiang Tingwan wanted to pull Mu Yunzhong over and beat him up.
But on second thought, he actually "saved" his life to some extent.
This is definitely better than death. With Qing Lan's attitude just now, it is possible that she would accidentally kill her by splitting the pill.
Although Mu Yunzhong had forgotten, Qinglan remembered that he had betrayed her once because of her master. Therefore, in Qinglan's eyes, her master must be killed. If she had not seen another person in Mu Yunzhong's eyes just now, she would not have let go.
Thinking of this, Jiang Tingwan immediately looked at Mu Yunzhong, who had a gloomy face opposite her, and remembered the attack that Yu Xiao had just blocked. Since she had already given Yu Xiao to Mu Yunzhong, the person Yu Xiao would follow would only be him.
She had just taken the initiative to summon Yu Xiao, and only did so to prove to Mu Yunzhong that she and Yu Xiao had a friendship as their old master, and that Yu Xiao would not kill his old master.
And she had not summoned it just now, nor was she its first owner, so she would not take the initiative to protect her master.
So, it was Mu Yun who protected himself just now?
Maybe he just had a memory erased, but the marks those things left on him did not disappear.
When Jiang Tingwan thought about this, his heart suddenly became complicated. Surprised and indescribable emotions were churning in his heart, and it took a long time to calm down.
The gaze from the opposite side just happened to turn over and saw the complicated look in Jiang Tingwan's eyes and her sudden smile.
"What are you laughing at?" he asked her with a frown.
"I am the Lord of Xiaotang, and you want to save me in this way?"
She looked at him with a smile, there was no mockery or contempt in her eyes, only a feeling that made him feel inexplicably familiar.
Mu Yun was stunned for a moment, frowned, and felt something strange in his heart. He said coldly: "Are you dizzy from the pain, or are you so stupid that you think I will save you?"
Jiang Tingwan also gradually gained confidence because of his reaction. He looked at him and said, "You can deny it, but I know that you only needed to let Qinglan take me away, so that she could help you solve a problem that you didn't know how to deal with, but you chose to seal the acupoints instead of splitting the elixir. It's because you know that Qinglan really wants to kill me... and even if she kills me, you can't really blame her..."
Jiang Tingwan paused for a moment and looked at him directly before continuing, "What I said before was right. You can't bear to see me die."
Hearing her words, Mu Yun finally seemed to have his thoughts revealed, and he suddenly raised his head to look at her.
A pair of cold eyes also stared at her closely, the light in their eyes was dim and unclear.
"You... do you think I really won't kill you?"
"Yes." Jiang Tingwan replied affirmatively, "Because you have no reason to kill me."
"Perhaps you won't believe this, but I am the person who knows you best in this world. I know better than anyone that your hatred for this world is not absolute, nor is it without leeway. As long as others are nice to you, you will give yourself a reason to forgive them."
"Just like Bai Wangshu humiliated you in every way, but when I became her, I only showed you a little kindness, and you forgave me, and even saved me more than once."
"Just like everyone in the Sanyuan Sect ignored your suffering, but now you see their current state, ask yourself, do you really want to kill them to vent your anger?"
Every word she said was distinct, and every sentence entered Mu Yunzhong's heart. Her voice was not loud, but it echoed like a huge bell in an ancient temple.
“I know what you are afraid of. Even if you have come to this point, you just want to protect yourself. You just don’t believe that anyone will stand by your side. But if you associate with darkness, you will eventually become darkness. It is not your fault that you have the Dustless Pearl, and it is not unsolvable. As long as you come back with me now, all this can be treated as if it never happened. Believe me, you are not the only one by your side…”
Jiang Tingwan's voice was distant and ethereal in the dark palace, as if it came from a distant time and space, causing Mu Yun to fall into confusion involuntarily.
It's the same face, but they are completely different people.
He looked through the familiar face at the person inside. It was clearly the first time they met, but every feeling in his heart told him that he wanted to get close to her unconditionally.
But as soon as this thought came to his mind, Mu Yunzhong's eyes suddenly became sharp, and the cold light in his eyes lowered the temperature around him.
"go back?"
He snorted coldly, "You are right. It is not my fault that I am carrying the Wuchen Pearl. However, the innocent man is guilty of possessing the treasure. If I want to live, I must kill them before they kill me..."
At this point, Mu Yunzhong's eyes became even gloomier, like a ghost fire burning faintly in the depths of darkness, greedy and evil, "Wen Bumian is right, Wujiyuan is an opportunity for the immortal sect, and also an opportunity for me. The Wuchenzhu needs to absorb more power, it is my helper... It was God who chose me, and it was the way of heaven that wanted me to become the strongest person..."
Mu Yunzhong's voice was like a ghost, and once again matched the voice of a second person.
"Mu Yunzhong?" Jiang Tingwan was shocked and shouted his name loudly.
Mu Yun was finally attracted by her voice and suddenly turned his head to look at her, but his eyes were confused.
He was still repeating the last sentence he had just said: "It was Heaven that chose me... It was Heaven..."
Seeing this, Jiang Tingwan walked towards him despite the pain in his body, but before he reached him, Mu Yun finally came back to his senses from his trance.
His blurry eyes returned to normal in a moment. He seemed to have just fallen into an invisible space. The feeling was as fast as an instant and as slow as a century.
So much so that when he saw Jiang Tingwan again, she was only a few steps away from him.
Jiang Tingwan saw the clarity in his eyes, stopped, and visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are you OK?"
Faced with her concern, Mu Yun was a little surprised. Was she still worried about him at this time?
He glanced at it in disbelief.
It was at this glance that he noticed that the person in front of him had not only old wounds healed, but also new wounds. Her white clothes were covered in blood. Looking at her like this, his heart trembled, his eyes became more complicated, and a strange emotion surged in his heart.
He did not answer Jiang Tingwan's question, but stared at her for a long time, as if thinking about something.
After a long time, his voice came, with a hint of annoyance in his tone.
"You said something wrong just now."
"???" Jiang Tingwan was stunned, "What?"
"There is a reason that will make me want to kill you a thousand times, ten thousand times..."
Before Jiang Tingwan could react, Mu Yunzhong stood up and picked her up.
"That's your identical face. Every time I see it, I think of it..."
"No... Gulp Gulp..."
Jiang Tingwan didn't even have time to complain. Not long after he was lifted off the ground, he was thrown directly into a pool. The unfinished words in his mouth turned into gurgling sounds...
