The green bird, hiding under the bed, held the book "Chaotic Spirit Body" in its wings. Its beady eyes darted around for a moment, and seeing that the Nascent Soul cultivator had indeed been lured away, it prepared to peck at the book with its sharp beak…
...
Qi Yu, inside the book's space, heard the sound and stroked Xiao Hei's smooth fur.
"Okay, everything should be fine now."
She smiled and said to Zhu Xiuzi, "Thank you for taking me in, Master. I'll head out now."
"Okay, be careful." After saying that, Zhu Xiuzi sent her out of the space.
Qi Yu reappeared in the room of Huayue Tower.
She looked up, about to search for where the green bird had gone, when she suddenly sensed something was wrong and abruptly stopped.
A warm yet slightly cool male voice rang out.
"Yu'er, is this what you're looking for?"
Qi Yu slowly turned around, looking expressionlessly at Chu Mo who had returned.
Dressed in a blue brocade robe, Chu Mo wore a gentle smile, appearing like a refined gentleman, yet he tightly gripped the dying spirit bird in his hand.
"Long time no see, Yu'er," Chu Mo said softly. "I never imagined that you would be doing so well after leaving me."
Qi Yu's expression remained unchanged as she asked, "Who are you?"
"Hmm? Are you going to pretend you don't recognize your brother?" Chu Mo asked, seemingly surprised and puzzled. "Yu'er, although I don't know why you changed your face, but..."
He stepped forward, as if to fix Qi Yu's hair, but Qi Yu stepped back to avoid him.
Chu Mo wasn't annoyed and chuckled softly, "Does your brother still remember the mole on your right ear?"
Qi Yu looked at Chu Mo, who was exchanging pleasantries with gentle words, and pursed her lips.
After arriving in this world, she didn't examine this body too closely, let alone places like her ears that she wouldn't normally pay much attention to.
Chu Mo looked at the black wolf cub being held in the girl's arms, his eyes darkening slightly. "This little wolf cub looks somewhat familiar..."
"Isn't this the one I bought at Yinhua Market that day..."
Little Black stared at Chu Mo warily with its bright blue eyes.
"So that's how I reunited with Yu'er on that day. Yu'er is so naughty, she really doesn't intend to acknowledge her brother..."
The young man's gentle voice coiled around Qi Yu like a venomous snake.
"Hmm? Yu'er, why aren't you talking to your brother? Didn't you used to love pestering your brother the most?"
The girl stared at him intently, her eyes trembling slightly before suddenly reddening and choking back tears:
"Brother Chu Mo, since you killed Yu'er so cruelly, why are you speaking to her so gently now!"
Crystalline tears rolled down her cheeks, which were filled with tender affection. Qi Yu looked at Chu Mo with tears in her eyes and said, her words dripping with blood:
"Brother clearly knows Yu'er's feelings! He even made a promise with Yu'er to stay together forever!"
"On the day we met, how could you know how much pain Yu'er endured in her heart, pretending to be a stranger to you!"
“Yu’er clearly intends to stay far away from you and Sister Fenxin, never to bother you again, and to let you two, a match made in heaven, be fulfilled.”
She approached Chu Mo step by step.
"I have already experienced the agony of the Seven Cold Soul-Seizing Technique myself. I believe I have already atoned for my sins. Why do you still insist on forcing me, Brother Chu Mo?"
"Yu'er only wants to live a quiet life all by herself."
Chu Mo opened his mouth slightly, seemingly caught off guard by Qi Yu's sudden move.
His eyes flickered slightly, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Yu'er, I..."
"Stop talking!" Qi Yu covered his mouth as if she couldn't stand it anymore. "In Brother Chu Mo's heart, Yu'er is just a vicious woman who doesn't deserve to die. But even if it's just to live a wretched life, this life was earned by my mother. Yu'er has no reason to give up so easily!"
When Qi Yu's mother was mentioned, Chu Mo's eyes darkened slightly. Even though he was a cold-blooded and ruthless person, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty when he thought of the gentle elder who saved him when he was young.
After all, he had brutally murdered the child of his savior.
Chu Mo placed the green bird in his hand on the table to the side, gently put his arm around Qi Yu, who was crying uncontrollably, and said, "Yu'er, don't cry. Since you have already changed your ways, your brother will forgive you. Come back with me and apologize to your sister Fenxin. This matter will be over, and we can live together."
"Really?" Qi Yu buried her face in Chu Mo's arms, lowered her head and whispered, "Brother Chu Mo, swear that you will never kill Yu'er again."
"Okay, brother swears." Chu Mo gently patted Qi Yu with his right hand and said softly.
"Yes, Brother Chu Mo, you're so kind." The girl in his arms looked up, her eyes red like a rabbit's, and hesitated, "But..."
"But what?"
Qi Yu suddenly smiled.
The sound of jade shattering suddenly rang out in the quiet room.
"But Yu'er can't believe it..."
The girl held the green bird that had crawled into her palm in her hand, and hugged the black wolf cub in her arms, her brows furrowed slightly as she looked troubled.
A beam of emerald light enveloped her, and in the next instant, the magnificent manor that had appeared on the open ground vanished without a trace as the light faded.
"..."
Chu Mo looked at his empty arms and chuckled.
He raised his right hand, looked at the exquisite dagger in his hand, and gently waved it as if making a stabbing motion.
Chu Mo's smile gradually faded, and a shadow of gloom flashed in his eyes.
"Yu'er, you've become so cunning, it's really making things difficult for your brother..."
...
An old house in the south of the city.
Yi Xiangfeng was writing something at his desk when he suddenly stopped writing with some distress, put away the piece of paper he was holding, and replaced it with a brand new sheet of Xuan paper.
He placed the brush on the brush holder, got up and walked out of the room, quietly waiting for something, looking at the few old people and children in the old house courtyard.
"Bang! Bang! Smash!"
Several things fell to the ground with a thud, and suddenly a girl in a white robe, a black wolf cub, and a green parrot appeared out of thin air in the courtyard.
Qi Yu grimaced as he got up from the ground, sighing that life is like a play, and it all depends on acting skills. You really can't get by without some acting skills.
She looked up and met the gaze of the scholar wearing an eye patch.
Yi Xiangfeng smiled and said, "Fairy, I didn't expect we would meet again so soon."
Qi Yu was about to reply with a dry laugh when several exclamations came from the side.
"Brother Yi, is this the Jade Fairy who has helped us so many times?!"
"Fairy! Have you come to see us?"
Several children who were playing in the yard gathered around, and two elderly people sitting in chairs walked over shakily.
Qi Yu stood frozen in place, feeling somewhat lost and bewildered by the surrounding crowd, unsure of what to say.
Yi Xiangfeng said, "The ban in Wucheng was lifted just now, so everyone went out to find work. Fairy, would you like to wait a little longer and wait for them to return so we can all get together?"
"ban?"
Yi Xiangfeng nodded and said, "Weren't we capturing the witch yesterday? I heard that the witch has been killed by an elder of Qiankun Fortress, so Wucheng is no longer under martial law."
