"you……"
After listening to all this, Zhou Mu was stunned for a moment. His eyes widened, and disbelief gradually filled his eyes.
"How is that possible?"
His first thought was to refute it.
“These days, I have been using my spiritual power to nurture Xiao Jiu. I can clearly feel that the hidden energy is gradually decreasing. Even if it is going to erupt one day, it will take at least another six months.”
"That's all I have to say. Since you insist on waiting until ten days later, then I have nothing more to say."
Chen Tai'a waved his sleeve, turned his back to Zhou Mu, and made a gesture of seeing the guest off.
However, at this moment, Zhou Mu had no intention of leaving at all.
He was not a professional doctor after all, and with only his half-baked skills, misdiagnosis was inevitable. Therefore, with the double burden of uncertainty in his heart, Zhou Mu still believed Chen Tai'a's words.
Once he calmed down, he slowly stood up, and with a serious expression, cupped his hands towards Chen Tai'a, saying, "I wonder if I can trust you?"
He's at his wit's end now.
Zhou Mu's attitude softened, and Chen Tai'a also stopped being arrogant. He calmed his aura slightly, turned to look at the former, and said, "No matter what, you only have me as your path now. Whether you believe it or not is up to you."
Zhou Mu nodded.
"I trust you."
Even with the formidable weapons of the Black Ice Platform and the Heavenly Tower, they were still helpless in many situations.
And the mysterious power hidden within Ye Mujiu is one of them.
...
When Zhou Mu returned to Qingyun Peak, he keenly sensed a strange aura.
As soon as he stepped into the palace, his brows furrowed.
This unfamiliar aura was mixed with a somewhat familiar feeling, which left him completely bewildered.
Just then, an old man suddenly appeared in front of him.
The old man was dressed in rags, wearing a straw hat, and had a faint, peculiar fishy smell about him.
The moment Zhou Mu saw the old man, his eyes widened, and then a surge of joy welled up inside him.
"Mr. Wang Xu..."
He blurted it out almost immediately, his eyes welling up with tears, his lips trembling, as if he could hardly believe that the person standing right in front of him was the old gentleman who had left such a deep impression on him.
Wang Xu smiled.
While laughing, tears welled up in my eyes.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Wang Xu said softly.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Zhou Mu said with a smile.
As he was laughing, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
In his previous life, he met Mr. Wang Xu a few years after establishing the Zhou family. He visited the hermitage of the Wolong Hermit three times and finally moved the master with his sincerity. Only then did the master agree to come out of seclusion and lend him a helping hand.
Wang Xu played a crucial role in his eventual conquest of the land, unifying the nine provinces and bringing the world under the rule of Zhou.
It could even be said that without Mr. Wang Xu's assistance, the Zhou Empire might not have been established, and the entire situation of the Nine Provinces Continent would likely have been rewritten.
But shouldn't their meeting have happened years later?
Could it be that his rebirth has caused his life trajectory to change?
Wang Xu noticed his confusion. He stretched out his withered hand and slowly covered Zhou Mu's somewhat immature face, saying softly, "I never thought that what you boasted about earlier, how handsome you were in your youth, was actually true? If you didn't look closely, who would associate this weak and delicate scholar with that majestic and domineering Emperor Wu of Zhou?"
These words left Zhou Mu stunned on the spot.
"you……"
For a moment, he was at a loss for words.
Emperor Wu of Zhou, who did not exist in this era, would certainly not have known about him if he had not experienced that time. In other words, Wang Xu was also a person from the future.
"It's good that you understand, there's no need to say it outright." Wang Xu smiled, stopping Zhou Mu from saying anything more.
He knew that Zhou Mu definitely wanted an answer, but it wasn't convenient with outsiders present, and all of this was too unbelievable.
The fewer people who know about it, the better.
The two had developed a tacit understanding long ago.
Seeing the familiar actions, the familiar scene, and the familiar conversation, Zhou Mu was momentarily dazed, and it took him a long time to calm down.
After the two finished their conversation, Ye Mujiu, Zhang Ling'er, and the others who had been in the corner slowly came out.
As soon as Ye Mujiu saw Zhou Mu, she rushed over to him as usual, nestled in his arms, tilting her head slightly upwards, as if he were looking at her entire world.
The little girl asked in a soft, sweet voice, "Brother Mu, how come I never knew you knew the Hermit of Crouching Dragon?"
Zhou Mu was about to come up with an excuse when he keenly sensed the hostility coming from a stranger.
If he guessed correctly, the stranger should be Wu Ming.
So, in order to prove his guess, he simply lowered his head.
He moved toward those alluring red lips.
The instant their lips touched, he felt as if he heard the sound of his heart breaking.
After he finished his little prank, he looked up and saw Wu Ming's eyes, which seemed to want to devour him alive. But for some reason, he forcefully suppressed the murderous impulse within him.
Zhou Mu loved this feeling of wanting to kill you but not being able to.
Zhang Ling'er looked on with a sweet expression.
Like a bystander watching a melon.
It was as if she were the protagonist in it.
When it comes to relationships, it's more interesting to watch other people's relationships.
Wang Xu smiled and shook his head, "Still as mischievous as ever."
Of everyone present, only Wu Ming could not withstand it.
As for Lu Shan, he knew this was an opportunity, so he leaned close to Zhang Ling'er and whispered, "Aren't you envious?"
Zhang Ling'er said, "Of course I'm envious."
"How about we give it a try?"
Lu Shan hesitated for a moment before speaking.
Zhang Ling'er hesitated at this moment. She reached out her small hand and pointed at Lu Shan, whispering, "He is in love with me, but the situation is too oppressive, and we are destined not to be together."
After saying that, she deliberately distanced herself from Lu Shan.
Seeing Zhang Ling'er take a step back, a shadow immediately fell over Lu Shan's eyes.
At this moment, he was certain that Zhang Ling'er liked him, and the reason she dared not act on those feelings was because of the marriage contract with the divine realm.
Thinking of this, Lu Shan suddenly felt a surge of heroic spirit. He walked a few steps to Wu Ming and, under the latter's puzzled gaze, swung his fist, which was as big as a sandbag, and smashed it directly into the latter's face.
Wu Ming was stunned for a moment.
In the brief moment of being stunned, I felt a burning pain on my face.
His mouth was bleeding from the impact.
He spat and looked at Lu Shan with a gloomy expression. "What do you mean by this?"
The atmosphere instantly became tense and confrontational.
