Especially Mo Sheng.
He finally found an opportunity to stay by Su Ya's side, who had transformed into a little girl.
Unexpectedly, she's going to travel around again.
How could he not be shocked? Had she discovered his identity?
So you've found an excuse to stay away?
In a short while, Mo Sheng's mind had already spontaneously come up with many thoughts about the real reason why Shen Qingqing wanted to leave.
And most of them are related to him.
No, he couldn't let her leave.
"I disagree?"
Mo Sheng said.
"You disagree?"
Suya repeated it.
"Yes, I disagree. Xiaoya, you're only eight years old. You have no idea how dangerous it is outside. I can't let you go on an adventure alone."
To save herself trouble, Suya gave herself a new name that was easy to remember and pronounce: Xiaoya.
Su Ya immediately retorted.
"Who do you think you are? Do I need your permission to do what I want? Even Ye Qinchuan didn't dare to stop me."
Oh no, I'm thinking about Ye Qinchuan again.
It seems that I think of Ye Qinchuan more and more since I came here.
"Ye Qinchuan, who is that person?"
Upon hearing the name of his rival Ye Qinchuan, Mo Sheng remained silent, but he was already furious inside.
It's Ye Qinchuan again.
It's like a persistent ghost.
Even now, his Ya Ya still mentions him.
Who he is is none of your business, and you're just staying here temporarily; you have no right to interfere in my affairs.
Mo Sheng...
"I just care about you."
"You care about me? I grew up without parents, and I'm used to not being cared for. I don't need you to play the good guy."
As the saying goes, the most hurtful words are those spoken without thinking.
Mo Sheng was utterly devastated.
He remembered the past, when the two of them were on a deserted island, and he overheard Leanna talking about her background. She had been left outside an orphanage as a child and was raised by the director.
From childhood to adulthood, I have suffered a lot because others looked down on me.
On their planet, people are divided into different classes.
They were not born from a mother's body, but rather from a birthing pod.
Both parents donated sperm and eggs to the fertilization chamber.
The two will then combine to form an embryo.
After some time, once the embryo matures...
It will then be transplanted to another location.
Then it slowly grows into the shape of a baby.
Some people can wait for their parents to pick them up.
Some people, for various reasons, never got to wait any longer.
Such people will be abandoned.
The birthing pod will open after a certain period of time.
They wandered around with their fertility balls.
Then they are randomly transported to the gates of orphanages on the planet.
Waiting for the right person.
And Leona was the most unfortunate one.
She never saw her parents again.
The infants were taken back from the birthing pod.
They will receive different treatment from their families based on their IQ.
Because of his exceptionally high intelligence, he has always enjoyed the best of his family.
When Mo Sheng heard Leia tell him about his past, he didn't feel anything.
Because at that time, I only wanted to use her to get away from that place.
But after losing Leona...
While he was locked up in that dark and gloomy place, he thought about it day and night, and he was almost obsessed with it.
Although their time together was short, every moment they shared was etched into his very being.
His only wish in life was to find her.
Then compensate him.
For this reason, he was willing to become a set of data.
They're not even human.
He finally found her after going through so much trouble, how could he be willing to give up?
"If you insist on leaving, then take me with you; otherwise, I will not let you go."
"Mo Sheng, have you forgotten our mission?"
Someone blocked the way.
"The mission is your mission, not mine. My goal has never changed."
"You guys can do that damn mission, I'm not going."
Mo Sheng said ruthlessly.
The reason he came to Yicheng Mosheng's place was not because he wanted to collect sect cultivation techniques.
His goal has never changed.
That's his Leona.
"Mo Sheng, have you really forgotten your sect? That's a matter of life and death for the sect."
"What does this have to do with me? It's still unknown whether we can go back in the future. Do you really think you can find someone to go back smoothly? There's a time difference of more than ten times between here and there."
Mo Sheng directly tore off the mask of civility.
He wanted them to give up and let them know that they had all been abandoned by their own sect.
He had known about it for a long time; the plan for that altar had been going on every year.
Those who did not succeed have long since turned into a pile of bones.
They were the disciples' test subjects.
Whether they succeed or fail, they will not survive.
Because of the time difference, they were all quite old when they returned.
Even if one were lucky enough to obtain a lost martial arts technique from a sect.
With such a crucial secret, would the sect allow them to live?
Therefore, even if they don't die of old age, they will still be secretly killed by the sect.
The sect doesn't care about these people's lives or deaths at all.
"A time difference of more than ten times? What do you mean? Why can't we understand?"
"That person who has always gotten along well with Mo Sheng asked."
"One day here is equivalent to one month in China."
"What?"
“I said that 30 years here is only one year in China.”
"So, that means we won't get old when we go back. I'm actually worried that I'll look terribly old when we go back, and no one will recognize me."
One of the female disciples said happily.
"Go back? Even if you could go back, with such a big secret hidden inside, do you think your sect would let you go?"
"What do you mean? You're not allowed to speak ill of my sect."
The female disciple said angrily.
"Haven't you heard the saying that only the dead can keep secrets?"
"Mo Sheng, you... my master isn't that kind of person."
"Not for our sect."
Several people suddenly stood up and spoke.
"Heh, still maintaining that disgusting sect. This ritual is held every year, and each sect sends one person each time."
Mo Sheng said slowly.
"So what?"
"Have you ever thought about it? Where did all your senior brothers and sisters go?"
"Master said that all the senior brothers and sisters have gone to a different place to cultivate?"
Someone thought for a moment and said.
He remembered his master saying that.
"You're the only ones who would believe such nonsense? Those people were sacrifices at the altar. The fact that they didn't cross over here like us proves that the sacrifice failed and that they died right there at the altar."
"Ah! I don't believe it. What you're saying is all false."
They couldn't believe that their sect could be so cruel.
They don't treat them like human beings.
"If you don't believe me, then I'll tell you the truth today. The altar isn't sacrificing livestock, but rather the lifespans of us. I think you can understand what I'm saying."
Mo Sheng's words struck everyone's hearts like a heavy hammer.
