"You who hurt her—you don't deserve it!" Mo Li's cold eyes were filled with ruthless indifference.

Gu Yan chuckled and said coldly, "I saved your life, and I gave you your cultivation. You say I'm not worthy? Then give me your life!"

Click—

A clap of thunder flashed across the sky, and Mo Han couldn't help but swallow hard. For some reason, he felt that Mo Li's choice would determine the fate of this world...

"Mo Li, you must not be bewitched by him! Your life belongs only to yourself!" Mo Chen said urgently. Mo Li cannot die; if he dies, there will be no Punisher in this world who can intervene!

Only one Punisher can accept a mission in the Otherworld, with a maximum of three Punishers assisting. However, if the Punisher who accepts the mission dies, then this world is equivalent to the Nine Springs abandoning salvation and becoming a desolate wasteland!

Therefore, Mo Li absolutely cannot die!

Mo Han frowned, and subconsciously clenched her fists, becoming somewhat worried.

Unexpectedly, Mo Li made a decision without much thought: "You saved me, and then took everyone around me away. Is that your purpose in handing me over to my martial uncle for training?"

Before Gu Yan could answer, Mo Li spoke again, "Thousand Absolute Mountain was destroyed and all life was lost, but my senior brother did not die, my uncle did not die, and even you did not die! It is truly a huge chess game that has me deeply trapped in it."

"But have you ever thought about it? You didn't just destroy Thousand Absolute Mountain, you also destroyed the bond between you and me, master and disciple! Furthermore, you hurt the one I love, you are my enemy! I, Gu Liyan, Mo Li of the Nine Springs Realm, have no need to beg from you for a single penny!"

Gu Yan raised an eyelid and couldn't help but smile. "Good! Good! You two have grown wings and can even rebel against your master now! Very good! I'd like to see how you guys manage to maintain peace in the Central Plains under my control!"

“We will stop you!” Mo Li said, squinting.

Mo Chen nodded vigorously, while Mo Han stared intently at Gu Yan with a cold face.

"Hehe, I'm really looking forward to it!" Gu Yan glanced at the three of them, chuckled, and continued, "This girl has been poisoned by me. Mo Han, you should know how to cure her! Hehe..."

Before the three could stop him, Gu Yan's figure vanished like a cloud of mist!

Mo Li ran anxiously to Mulan, calling out, "Mulan! Mulan!"

Seeing that Mulan's life force was barely there, Mo Li's face was terribly gloomy. "Senior brother, what kind of poison did she get?"

“It’s not really a poison, it’s more like forgetting dust…” Mo Han said with a furrowed brow.

Mo Li trembled all over. "What?!"

Seeing Mo Li's pale face, Mo Chen had a bad feeling. "What is Forgetting Dust?"

"Forget-Dust is a kind of illusion technique bestowed by the Nine-Tailed Fox bloodline talent. It can make people addicted to beautiful dreams until the end of their lifespan," Mo Li said softly.

“Human lifespan is not long, and time spent in a dream can pass quickly, which is why Mulan’s life force is gradually disappearing.” Mo Han sighed, glanced at Mulan and said helplessly, “Junior brother, judging from her aura, she won’t last more than an hour.”

Mo Li stood up, looking at Mo Han with a determined expression. "Senior brother, please send my demon soul into Mulan's illusion!"

Mo Han's pupils contracted. "No! If you can't wake her up, you'll die too!"

"But senior brother, this is the only way, and only I can awaken her, right?"

"No! I absolutely will not allow you to do anything dangerous again!" Mo Han refused decisively.

Mo Li said with a serious expression, "Don't worry, senior brother, if it doesn't work, I will give up!"

"Don't beg me! I said no, and that's final!" Mo Han said coldly.

"Senior brother!" Mo Li immediately knelt on the ground. "Please... let me save her! I don't have much time left!"

Mo Han trembled with rage. "You, you actually did this for a mere mortal woman..."

"Senior brother, if you've ever sacrificed anything for the woman you love, you should understand me!" Mo Li said anxiously. "Please, senior brother!"

Mo Han gritted her teeth. "If you don't come out in half an hour, I'll drag you out and then kill her with my own hands!"

"Thank you, thank you, senior brother!" Mo Li said excitedly.

Mo Han solemnly commanded, "Nine Dust Illusionary Spirit Array, Nine Dust Illusionary Realm—Open!"

In an instant, a purple light enveloped Mo Li—

Hua Mulan, dressed in a pink dress, leaned against the white-clad man's chest, her fingers nimbly and gently playing the zither. After finishing a piece, she looked up at the man holding her and asked with curiosity, "Was it beautiful?"

"Yes! The music you played was naturally beautiful!"

Hearing the man's praise, Mulan was overjoyed. At this moment, she resided in a castle as beautiful as a fairyland, a castle of ice crystals!

Beside her stood the owner of the castle, who treated her with kindness and overflowing with deep affection, and she, in turn, fell in love with this blissful life as a couple.

No war, no restrictions on freedom—it all happened in the blink of an eye!

"I really thought this was just a dream. If it really is a dream, I hope I never wake up and never be separated from you again." Mulan held the man's hand tightly, leaned slowly against his chest, and spoke gently.

The man's face was blurred, and his features were indistinct, but one could vaguely make out a wicked smile playing on his lips. "Don't worry, the two of us will naturally not be separated!"

Upon hearing this, Mulan was overjoyed and became completely engrossed in it, unable to extricate herself!

Just then, the space around the world trembled slightly, followed by Mo Li's call.
