Chapter 63 Confession.

Being kissed so passionately by the person she loved, Mo Xiu's mind wasn't just blank; her whole being went completely blank.

After finally coming to his senses, Mo Xiu even secretly pinched his thigh to make sure he wasn't dreaming and that the person he liked was really kissing him passionately.

He remembered what he had asked Mo Qi before the kiss: whether Mo Qi liked him. Was this kiss the answer?

If it's true, this is the answer Mo Qi has given him. It means that everything he's done all this time hasn't been in vain. He can finally end his long, one-sided crush and truly have a lover.

Thinking of this, Mo Xiu couldn't help but slowly close her eyes, gradually deepening the kiss in sync with the person opposite her.

Mo Qi naturally sensed the response from the person opposite him and tightened his grip on her arm.

A smile flickered across the man's eyes. Mo Xiu had accepted his kiss, which meant he truly loved her. In that case, nothing else seemed to matter.

And so, the two in the room kissed for a long time, until Mo Xiu felt a little breathless and gently patted Mo Qi's back, trying to help him relax.

The man opposite him finally raised his head, but still didn't loosen his arms around him. Foreheads touched, and both of them were breathing slightly unevenly, yet their hearts were filled with the same sweetness.

"So this is your answer?" Mo Xiu murmured softly.

"Otherwise what? I thought that was our relationship from the beginning. Otherwise, why would you have rescued me? Even if you said at the beginning that you came to that warehouse to rescue me because of past reasons, what happened afterward?"

"That meticulous care, that selfless devotion, that putting my life and safety first, and prioritizing my preferences—doesn't that represent your heart?"

Mo Qi curled the corners of his lips and said with certainty.

Mo Xiu was speechless when asked the question. At first, he was indeed mostly thinking about repaying a debt of gratitude. He never imagined that one day his relationship with Mo Qi would develop into what it is now.

However, perhaps this is the wonderful fate brought about by rebirth. He never expected that the bond left by the other person in his previous life would actually lead them to become lovers.

"So, you only like me, and your feelings for Dayong are just ordinary, like taking care of your teammates, right?" Mo Xiu still insisted on knowing the answer to this question.

Mo Qi was truly bewildered by the question. Weren't the two of them in the middle of a romantic conversation? How did it involve Xiong Gangyong? When had she and Xiong Gangyong ever had such an inappropriate relationship? What had he done to cause Mo Xiu to misunderstand?

Mo Qi was filled with doubts, so he directly asked the young man opposite him.

Seeing that the man seemed genuinely confused, Mo Xiu pursed her lips and explained, "But you always seem very happy when you're with him. You smile at him and get amused by him, more than once."

You even care about him; you massage him—something you never do for anyone else but me. I feel like you pay far too much attention to him!

Also, your ability to restore humans infected with the zombie virus is something I've never seen before, and you never told me about it.

But after Xiong Gangyong got into trouble, you still used it. How do you explain all of this?

Mo Xiu was initially a little guilty when she spoke, wondering if it was because she was being petty and paranoid that she thought that way.

To everyone's surprise, after confronting Mo Qi, he felt more and more aggrieved the more he talked.

Mo Qi was stunned. He really hadn't noticed anything special about Xiong Gangyong.

He thought the kid was alright, but he had absolutely no other feelings for him. As for being amused, it was because the guy was so silly that he wanted to laugh.

However, there were some things he still needed to explain to his Daoist partner, so that Mo Xiu wouldn't really misunderstand him. More importantly, he felt that the current atmosphere might be a good time to be honest.

He had long wanted to tell Mo Xiu the big secret that he had transmigrated from the cultivation world.

So Mo Qi carefully considered his words before beginning to tell Mo Xiu his true past and his history as the Demon Lord.

Mo Xiu listened in astonishment as the man opposite her recounted this fantastical story. No one else would have believed it, but the person telling it was Mo Qi.

Considering the other party's behavior after I got to know him, if Mo Qi didn't originally belong to this world, or if he was a highly powerful demon lord in the past, then everything seems to make sense.

Furthermore, what the other side sees as zombies in this world are never actually infected by a virus, but rather controlled by demonic energy.

The reason why Mo Qi is unaffected by being bitten or scratched by zombies is because he can control demonic energy.

"So, Mo Xiu, you've really misunderstood. You said I smiled at Da Yong because I genuinely thought he was silly and funny, don't you think so too?"

As for the rest, regarding the massage you mentioned last time, it was my fault for not explaining it clearly to you.

I wasn't really giving him a massage. My divine sense sensed his abnormality first. I just wanted to determine whether this method of extracting demonic energy was suitable for other people.

So on the way, I made it seem like I was interacting with him more, partly to repeatedly test and refine this technique. Back when we were facing a level seven zombie, that zombie completely unleashed the demonic energy within Dayong's body, forcing me to take full action—it was a desperate measure.

Mo Qi carefully explained each of the questions raised by Mo Xiu.

Upon hearing this, Mo Xiu felt a sense of sudden realization, but also a heavy heart. What if she had sensed earlier that the Mo Qi she had rescued was actually a transmigrator from some so-called cultivation world?

Was he the same man who guarded his own body in his final moments in his past life?

However, Mo Xiu immediately dismissed this doubt. He looked into the other person's eyes. Those eyes, and the expression they conveyed when looking at him, were all too familiar to him.

It was the same look in their eyes, completely representing the spirit and soul of the same person.

As if guided by some unseen force, Mo Xiu was certain that Mo Qi in this life and Mo Qi in the previous life were definitely the same person.

But how could Mo Qi have ended up in such a miserable state in his past life?

You have to understand, he died a few years later in his previous life. With Mo Qi's abilities, and his capacity to transmigrate to the Demon Lord's realm, this shouldn't be...

"Is meeting me important to you? After all, you are such a powerful Demon Lord."

You're not afraid of any so-called zombie virus—no, I shouldn't call it a virus, you said it's demonic energy. You're the Demon Lord, you can completely control demonic energy, those zombies are nothing to you.

So, being with you doesn't really bring you anything, does it...?

Mo Xiu's voice was somewhat low, but the man opposite her shook his head.

Mo Qi pursed his lips, his expression unusually conflicted, but he still didn't want to hide it from Mo Xiu, so he confessed to him that the other person seemed to be a very suitable vessel for him.

"Actually, I can't be sure if you are the cultivation vessel. I can only say that as long as we make contact, my cultivation speed will increase."

And you seem to bring me luck. When I'm with you, I always seem to encounter the right opportunities, which unexpectedly help me recover faster.

If it weren't for you, I wouldn't want to be able to completely recover to where I am now. It could take at least ten years, maybe even several decades, and that would be truly devastating!

Mo Qi spoke somewhat guiltily, afraid that his beloved would be angry if she heard what he said.

The person on the other end of the line only showed a surprised expression: "It takes that long!"

Although Mo Xiu initially felt somewhat uncomfortable when the other party mentioned that his physique might be a cauldron, he also wondered if Mo Qi's closeness to him was motivated by ulterior motives.

But upon hearing that if the other person doesn't get close to him, it would take such a long time to recover, it seemed that his special constitution wasn't so bad after all.

If Mo Qi is going to suffer so much more, then he would rather the other party approach him with an ulterior motive, so that at least he can recover faster.

Fortunately, Mo Qi wasn't one to keep quiet, and quickly confessed to Mo Xiu, "Don't misunderstand. Even if I initially preferred to be close to you because it helped me recover faster, my feelings for you have never had anything to do with that."

I'm so glad, because I realized your special constitution, and that's why I actively wanted to get closer to you. I lived a very long life in my past life, and I was always alone. Meeting you in this world is my greatest fortune.

"Mo Xiu, I truly consider you my destined Daoist partner, the kind I'm willing to live and die with!"

Mo Qi spoke earnestly, and Mo Xiu was somewhat moved by what she heard.

He thought that perhaps in their past life, it was because they missed each other and didn't have much contact that Mo Qi's life was so miserable. Thinking this, Mo Xiu even felt a little guilty.

Then he suddenly thought, if Mo Qi is the Demon Lord, then could his rebirth be related to him?

Thinking of this, Mo Xiu casually asked, "The title 'Demon Lord' sounds incredibly powerful. Besides what you showed me before, what other abilities do you have? You can't possibly reverse time and regenerate people, can you?"

After saying that, he nervously held his breath. To his surprise, Mo Qi laughed upon hearing his words.

The man opposite him shook his head, a helpless yet amused expression on his face, and said to him, "You really know how to think, turning back time and giving people a second chance at life? You always pick the hardest options, don't you?"

However, it's not impossible. I know of a forbidden technique, and if combined with a cultivation level and divine sense as strong as mine, it's still possible to achieve it.

However, these conditions are too harsh. Do you know how many years it would take to find a demonic cultivator with the same cultivation level as me? Moreover, this forbidden technique requires burning one's own divine soul as the price.

The pain involved would be a thousand times, ten thousand times more excruciating than undergoing shaving or bone removal; how could anyone be so foolish?
