The thing that was grown from a strand of rhizome was Mo Qin himself, not another person.

This is a hidden life-saving skill that even Mo Qin himself doesn't know about.

At the same time, she didn't know that a leaf could bring her back to life as an inconspicuous little fairy grass.

If there was no such leaf, what would happen to Mo Qin when she woke up by absorbing spiritual energy?

It was just a coincidence that happened to coincide with each other, and luckily there was a good ending.

It has to be said: do your best and leave the rest to fate.

Mo Qin lowered her eyelashes, her eyes fixed on the table, but unfocused.

I have thought of countless words in my mind, but now I am a little speechless.

Saying thank you seems a bit powerless. Asking whether it is worth it seems too fake.

But she couldn't just say nothing.

Mo Qin only raised the corners of his mouth palely and dryly to reveal a gentle smile, and said slowly:

"Thank you for your hard work. From now on, you won't be alone anymore."

She could only imagine and learn from a few words about the time that Takiying walked alone, the helplessness and loneliness he endured, and the hardships and sufferings he experienced.

Long Ying didn't know what kind of response he wanted to hear from Mo Qin.

Such calmness may make him feel a little lost, but it also makes him feel at ease.

He looked at Mo Qin, looked into her eyes, trying to see through her true thoughts.

"Yeah." Long Ying lowered his head and smiled, then sighed frankly, "It's quite hard."

It is indeed very hard.

When you know a specific time and move towards it, you will be filled with anticipation and eagerness.

But when you don’t know where the end is, or whether there is an end at all, you have to endure suffering every moment, struggle repeatedly between persistence and giving up, and spend your days like years in constant self-affirmation and denial.

Later he finally understood:

Don't think about it, just do it. No matter what the result is, in the future, when the answer is revealed, at least every step you took steadily will not make you regret it.

Mo Qin stood up and patted Long Ying's shoulder. It was a consolation that wasn't really a consolation.

She suggested:

"We've been out of touch with the times for so many years, why don't we go out for a walk?"

The capital of the demon world is very lively. After all these years, who knows what new things may appear.

Long Ying nodded blankly and went out for a walk with Mo Qin.

…

The capital of the demon world is very big. The two of them just wandered around the city for a while and it was getting dark.

Long Ying and Mo Qin walked side by side, but if you look closely you will find that he is actually a little behind, in terms of pace.

On the way, the two never mentioned that dark past again.

Just talking about the present, right now.

This way of getting along was no different from before, which temporarily put aside the uneasiness in Takiying's heart.

When the two returned to their residence, Li Lai was sitting on a rock, supporting his chin with his hands, waiting for them with a bitter face.

Li Yan ran towards Mo Qin and complained aggrievedly:

"Where have you been?"

In the blink of an eye, both of them were gone, and now they came back together. It seemed like they deliberately left him behind.

Takiying: "I went out for a walk."

Li Yan was furious when he heard this, "You guys went out to play, why didn't you take me with you?"

Long Ying spread his hands and said in a somewhat rude tone:

"No one is holding you back, you can go out on your own."

"you!"

“…”

The two of them were bickering childishly, talking back and forth, and in the end they both strayed from the topic.

This scene seems to have returned to many years ago.

-

The next day, Mo Qin met Yi Junze again.

To be precise, he was the one who took the initiative to find Mo Qin.

As the demon king, Yi Junze's official duties are also very busy.

He was leaning against a tree trunk, holding a jar of honey in his hand, and his whole body smelled sweet.

Yi Junze seemed to be gossiping, "How was it? Did you guys have a good chat yesterday?"

Mo Qin nodded, expressing her gratitude for his help.

"Thank you for your willingness to help."

Yi Junze wanted to hear this, and he smiled even more happily, "We're no strangers to each other! Besides, my help isn't in vain, right?"

He walked over and sat down.

"I won't beat around the bush with you. From now on, let's help each other and work together to create a bright future for the Three Realms!"

Mo Qin knew that this was Yi Junze's real purpose.

She asked doubtfully, "Oh? Help each other, you mean you want me to join your demon tribe?"

Yi Junze tutted, "What do you mean by surrendering to the demon tribe? I mean you stay as an immortal and we can form a friendly alliance."

Everyone does their own thing.

At least they have to be of the same level to be able to talk about forming an alliance. The hidden meaning of Yi Junze's words is obvious.

Mo Qin: "I don't know, how can a mere immortal like me form an alliance with your immortal race?"

Yi Junze got angry again, "Are you still pretending? You know what I mean."

He held the honeypot with one hand and acted as if he was getting down to business.

"I believe you are aware of the current situation of the Immortal Clan."

At that time, the human cultivators suffered a heavy blow. They were attacked by other immortals and were also forced by other races outside.

Internal and external troubles.

The status of the human cultivators in the immortal race is shaky, and they are able to barely maintain a central position by relying on a shameless tenacity.

It's just that half of the rights have been taken away.

There is still constant struggle within the immortal clan.

From a macro perspective, the immortals have long lost their position of having the final say, but the fact that they control some of the laws is unchangeable.

Looking at the immortal clan again...back then, human cultivators persecuted other immortals so harshly that the human cultivators still had the upper hand.

Of course, Yi Junze would not want to see the events of that year happen again.

He hoped that the immortal race would have a new leader, a ruler who was not a human cultivator.

The candidate is Mo Qin.

Mo Qin lowered her eyes, "I didn't know you had such high expectations of me."

Yi Junze: "I think there is no immortal more suitable than you."

The true form of plants and trees is selfless, impartial, and respectful of all living beings. Only such people who are in charge of the laws can make other living beings feel convinced and at peace.

"I will fully support you. Mo Qin, don't say you have never thought about it."

When Mo Qin heard this, he shook his head and sighed:

"Chasing power and trying to control others? I really haven't thought about that."

If you pursue and desire these things, what difference is there between you and the immortals who have made great mistakes? It's just the difference between fifty steps and a hundred steps.

Yi Junze said in a serious tone, "No. It's not for power, but for all living things."

Just like him, he wanted the demon race to get rid of the oppression of the immortal race and live with dignity.

Yi Junze said with some excitement:

"This is your mission, this is what you should do!"

Mo Qin's face became even more tense. It was rare for him to be so serious.

"That's enough! Stop talking."

Yi Junze felt like he had broken his promise, so he immediately shut up.

It's obviously not appropriate to continue the conversation after it has come to this.

He got up and left.

"What I said today is always valid."
