Chapter 59 Chapter 59 "Of course I'm here to make things difficult for you."...
"Brother. Water source is the most important."
Mo Jue said lightly, "My business is not important."
He turned around, his back to Xuan Yi: "Brother, it's nothing. Go find Fairy Biqing first."
Xuan Yi opened his lips slightly, tentatively suggesting, "Ajue, if there's a way, we should always try it. Biqing and I went to the Wei River to search for the Zhai Xin Bottle, and it was extremely dangerous. Now that we have this treasure, we have the chance to help you recover. This is a rare opportunity, so why not give it a try?"
"I remembered that today's spell has not been drawn yet. Brother, I'm leaving first."
Mo Jue rarely interrupted Xuan Yi and disappeared in front of Xuan Yi in a hurry.
Xuan Yi looked at his brother's fleeing back, shook his head, and went to look for Biqing.
Biqing held the Zhaixin bottle in her hand, sat on the couch in the room, and carefully explored the mystery contained in it.
There was a disappointing knock on the door. Bi Qing knew it was Xuan Yi and stood up to greet him.
When she opened the door, she saw Xuan Yi's handsome face with a frown on his face. Bi Qing knew without asking: Xuan Yi had been turned away by his own brother.
"Ajue seems very scared."
Without waiting for Biqing to ask, Xuanyi walked into the room and told Biqing everything that had just happened.
He sighed: "Even if I can't cure him in the end, I'm still here, right?"
Bi Qing asked, "Can Master Mo Jue still live under your protection for the rest of his life?"
The two sat down in the room. Xuan Yi looked at the lotus on the table and the fruit placed in the middle of the lotus. He picked up one and purified it with his demonic power before handing it to Bi Qing.
"It would be strange if Master Mo Jue wasn't afraid."
Bi Qing took the fruit from Xuan Yi and said, "Young Master Mo Jue must be afraid of disappointing his expectations, so he rejected you."
Xuan Yi shook his head helplessly. "Ajue didn't even give me a chance to talk. How can I persuade him? I really want him to live in good health."
"Master Mo Jue doesn't want to face it, no matter how many times you go to find him, it's useless."
Biqing took a bite of the fragrant fruit and said, "Young Master Mo Jue is so smart. Give him some time. When he figures it out, he'll come find you."
"Young Master Mo Jue has his things to do, and we have ours to do."
Bi Qing placed the Zhai Xin Bottle in front of Xuan Yi. "The spiritual power of the Zhai Xin Bottle is entirely dependent on Senior Wulin's inner elixir. If the spiritual power in the inner elixir is completely consumed, and there is no new spiritual power in the Zhai Xin Bottle, I am afraid that this bottle will eventually become a useless decoration."
Changing the subject, she said, "But if you use the spiritual power in your inner elixir to purify the water source, Mr. Mo Jue's matter might..."
"So, between Ajue and Shuiyuan, I can only choose one, right?" Xuan Yi asked hesitantly, his words revealing unconcealable despair.
Xuan Yi lowered his head, rarely expressing his own regret. "If I weren't the leader of the wolf demon clan, I wouldn't have to make such a constant choice."
If you are not a leader, you don't have to make the decision to leave your hometown. You can just follow the footsteps of your tribe and go wherever you want.
Since he is not the leader, he does not have to put his people first. He just needs to focus on his brother and find ways to cure him. He does not need to care about others.
Xuan Yi's breathing became heavier as he tried his best to erase these immature and complaining thoughts from his mind.
Seeing Xuan Yi's self-destructive nature, Bi Qing said gently, "Xuan Yi, please listen to what I have to say."
Xuan Yi raised his pair of mandarin duck eyes and looked at Biqing quietly.
Bi Qing said, "Ancient books have recorded that the Wulin clan's inner elixir has the effect of clearing the meridians. However, it does not specify whether the inner elixir must possess spiritual power."
Xuan Yi said, "An inner elixir without spiritual power is no different from internal organs."
A pair of mandarin duck eyes widened: "If it's internal organs, can it be used as a tonic?!"
Bi Qing nodded, put down the fruit in her hand, and looked into Xuan Yi's eyes, which were filled with hope. "But this is just our speculation. Whether it is true or not, we can only gamble."
The hope that had ignited in Xuan Yi's heart gradually died out.
Biqing felt a dull pain in her heart when she saw Xuanyi's appearance.
Xuan Yi didn't ask her to repay his kindness by finding a source of purified water, but instead asked her to find a cure for Mo Jue. This made her realize how important Mo Jue was to Xuan Yi.
Biqing could understand Xuanyi's feelings.
She also hoped that Mo Jue would recover soon.
But many things depend on chance and are not something she can control.
Even if the time is right but the fate is not right, nothing can be accomplished.
"Xuan Yi, should we... make a bet?" Bi Qing asked tremblingly.
After all, it was a matter between the two brothers. She was just an outsider and still had to listen to their opinions.
Xuan Yi pursed his lips tightly, feeling extremely awkward.
Bi Qing said weakly, "If you can't make up your mind, I can go ask Master Mo Jue."
"Biqing." Xuan Yi rubbed the bridge of his nose. "Please let me think about it and then make a decision."
——
After Mo Jue returned to the house, he used his magical powers to draw talismans.
The light blue demonic power fell on the yellow talisman paper, penetrated into it silently, and merged with the talisman paper.
Somehow, Mo Jue remembered the day when his brother attached the demonic power to talisman paper and distributed it to the tribe members.
My brother is in good health, and the color of his demonic power is as deep blue as the sea.
Unlike myself, as plain as water.
The blue demonic power overflowed from his brother's palm bit by bit. Mo Jue didn't know what his brother was thinking at that time.
Or maybe he knows it, but just doesn't want to admit it.
He was unwilling to admit that his brother had made a move that would destroy himself and himself, so he came to Kunlun in order to protect the safety of his people.
This was to save his demonic energy so that he could carry his burden without much effort.
The talisman paper suddenly split into two, making a sharp sound, and fell onto Mo Jue's clothes.
Mo Jue casually swept away the talisman paper and waved his hand to collect the stack of talismans neatly spread out on the table.
"Mo Jue!"
Liu Que came to Mo Jue's room with the breeze of wind, pushed the door open without any hesitation, and lay down on the bed as if she had returned to her own home.
Mo Jue frowned slightly, suppressing his irritability and speaking in a calm voice, "What are you doing here?"
"What else can I do? Come and see you."
Liuque rolled onto the couch, turned sideways, supported her head with one hand, and patted the space in front of her with the other hand: "Would you like to come over and chat with me for a few minutes?"
Mo Jue was almost angered by Liu Que's actions and fainted.
"Liuque, don't be so presumptuous."
He turned his back and urged, "Why don't you get out now? What will it look like if others see us?"
Liu Que hummed, "If others were to talk about it, they would only discuss your good brother and Biqing! Gods and monsters, aren't they more interesting than you and me?"
She conjured a silk fan and symbolically fanned herself a few times. "Besides, I'm not afraid of what others say or see. It seems to suit my taste. So, don't even think about hiding from me anymore."
"Liuque, stop being the first to complain."
Mo Jue said, "Every time you run into my room, leaving me with nowhere to hide. How come I'm the one hiding from you?"
Liu Que said, "You don't want to be with me, aren't you just avoiding me?"
"Is there nothing else on your mind except me?"
Mo Jue turned around and said coldly, "Liu Que, can you please be like your brother and take care of your own people?"
"Why would I come here without caring about my people?"
Liu Que rolled his eyes at Mo Jue. "Do you really think I came here just because of you? Stop being so self-indulgent! Even if Xuan Yi or Ming Zhu had gone that day, I would have agreed to come here for the sake of my people!"
A barely perceptible glint of anger flashed across Mo Jue's eyes: "If it's not because of me, then why did you come to my house?"
"Of course I'm here to make things difficult for you."
Liu Que raised the corner of his mouth and said slowly, "You don't even let me live a good life, so why should I let you live a good life? You look down on me anyway, so why not let me look after you more, so that you won't forget me when you die and go to hell."
Mo Jue was furious at Liu Que's words. He laughed in anger and said, "Are you hoping for my death?"
"Why are you mad at me? Aren't you hoping for your own death?"
Liuque sat up, staring at him intently: "From the beginning to the end, you were the one who escaped, gave up, and rejected everyone's help."
She adjusted a strand of hair that fell in front of her. "Now that we have the chance, why not try it? The worst that can happen is that the status quo remains. How bad can it get?"
Mo Jue was unwilling to pay attention to Liu Que: "Get out. Don't wait for me to chase you away."
Liuque is not afraid of him. Mo Jue said this countless times, and every time he got so angry that he slammed the door and left.
Liuque smiled and blinked innocently at Mo Jue.
As expected, Mo Jue pushed the door open and left, waving his hand and using his demonic power to close the door.
Liuque lay back on the couch and murmured, "I really don't know what you are thinking."
On the way, Mo Jue met Liao Ying and Ming Zhu. Seeing the two of them helping the wolf demon with a broken spine to recover, he couldn't help but stop and go to help.
Mingzhu stopped him and said, "Master Mo Jue, just take a good rest. Leave this matter to me!"
Mo Jue's face darkened instantly.
Liao Ying, who was standing by, noticed that the atmosphere was not right, so he tugged at Ming Zhu's sleeve and said hurriedly, "Master Mo Jue, you have more important things to do. Leave this ordinary little thing to us."
"Thank you." Mo Jue forced a smile, feeling even more annoyed.
Mo Jue came to the lake alone, and looking at the little wolf cubs chasing each other and having fun in front of him, his depressed mood eased a little.
The little wolf cubs jumped three feet high, very powerfully, and it was obvious that they were well fed.
Mo Jue was a little dazed: from the time he could remember until he became an adult, he had never run or jumped like the little wolf cubs.
He actually... didn't want to be carefully cared for by his brother.
Liuque was right, he was just running away.
He was afraid of his expectations being dashed and what he would face after failure.
"The worst that can happen is just what it is now. How much worse can it get?"
These words kept echoing in Mo Jue's ears, bit by bit breaking down the weakness hidden deep in his heart.
Mo Jue shook his head slightly and muttered to himself, "What a nemesis. My brother couldn't convince me either."
He stood up and went to look for Xuan Yi at a leisurely pace.
With every step he took, he was thinking: What should I say when I see my brother later?
By the time Mo Jue came to his senses, the other person had already gone outside the house.
Mo Jue mustered up the courage to raise his hand and knock on the door, but when his knuckles were about to touch the door panel, he stopped in fear.
The raised hand was shaking so violently that Mo Jue couldn't control it.
Mo Jue took a deep breath, and finally his knuckles fell on the door panel, knocking a few times, making a "dong dong dong" sound.
The sound of hurried footsteps reached his ears through the door. He was stunned for a moment, but the moment the person pushed open the door, his expression returned to normal: "Fairy Biqing."
"Master Mo Jue!"
Bi Qing was overjoyed and turned sideways, saying, "Come in quickly! Xuan Yi and I are currently discussing how to use this inner elixir. Come in and take a look!"
Mo Jue heard that his brother was there too, so he followed Biqing into the house.
What he saw was Xuan Yi with a frown on his face, holding the Zhaixin bottle with a serious expression, completely ignoring him.
Mo Jue glanced at Bi Qing who was beside him. Seeing her nodding and smiling, he said, "Brother, I've made up my mind."
"Have you really thought it through?"
Xuan Yi slowly looked at him, his tone unusually serious, "Ajue, there's no regrets after making a move. I'll give you one chance. Are you sure you've made up your mind?"
