Qi Chu smiled bitterly, "Yes! But at the time, we had no choice. If we had refused, we would have faced inhuman punishment."
Mu Huan simply couldn't believe it. He originally thought that the fighting between different tribes was dark enough, but it turned out that the fighting within the tribe was even darker. Those people only cared about their own interests and would not care about others.
"But it doesn't matter. It's all in the past anyway. Talking about the past now will only add to the sadness!" Tan Tai Luo was very optimistic. Although it was very painful at that time, after more than a thousand years, the pain that should be forgotten was finally forgotten in the long river of time.
"Luoluo is right. We have gone through the painful days and shouldn't think about it anymore." Mu Qing was still as calm as ever, so everyone would habitually focus on him.
"Today is the day we are together, so let's not talk about these unhappy things anymore. Who knows what will happen in the future? If there really is any difficulty and we have to stand on opposite sides, I hope we can understand each other."
Ever since Mu Huan regained his memory, he'd always been prepared for the worst. He didn't expect others to help him, nor did he expect them to stand by him. He just wanted to have a clear conscience and protect his people forever!
They have suffered so much, and Mu Huan hopes that they will have a sweet life in the days to come.
Suddenly, Mu Huan thought of something, slapped the table, and stood up suddenly.
"I think I need to go back to the underworld."
The people there are still waiting for her to save them...
"Back to the netherworld? Why are you going back there now? Did you forget something there?"
In reality, Tan Tai Luo didn't recommend Mu Huan go back. Firstly, shattering the void to return would be extremely exhausting, and if they accidentally fell into a spatial rift, they would be completely destroyed. Secondly, they had come to the Upper Realm rashly in the first place, and if they suddenly returned to the Lower Realm, they might be accused of conspiracy.
"We have to go this time." Yucheng, the place known as the dead city, is a must-go.
Seeing the determination in Mu Huan's eyes, everyone finally stopped talking. Mu Huan always had her own opinions. If she made a decision, she would definitely be sure of it. So, they decided not to interfere.
"We'll be waiting for you here!"
Mu Huan nodded. Once she rescued her people, it would be time for the gods to pay the price.
Mu Huan was a man of decisive character. With the help of Mu Qing and the others, he didn't have to spend too much energy to crush the void.
Crushing the void was the quickest way back. In a short while, Mu Huan had already stepped onto the land of the netherworld. It was exactly the same as when she left, but her mindset had changed a lot. She didn't know if it was the place that had changed, or if she had changed too!
The place where Mu Huan landed happened to be Cang Xiu Country. This was where he grew up. Here were her concerns, the footprints of her growth, and the humiliation she had suffered.
Mu Huan stood outside her home, taking a look at herself now. She wondered if they would still recognize her now that she was home. She also wondered how much private money Lao Mo had hidden while she was away, and whether the little brother her mother had given birth to had grown up, and whether he could call her mom and dad, or even her sister.
Mu Huan suddenly felt that he was ridiculous. He was obviously not a human, but he longed for the warmth of the human race and a happy family.
“Ouch!”
Mu Huan only felt his body being hit violently. After staggering a few steps, he looked down!
A little kid wearing a red bellyband, his head completely bald except for a long braid sticking up at the back. With a round body and chubby hands, it's no wonder he's so powerful when bumping into things.
"Sister, you are so beautiful!"
The little kid was not shy at all and sucked his finger involuntarily.
"Beautiful sister, have we met somewhere before?" I always feel that the beautiful sister in front of me is very familiar, but the sister in the painting in my mother's room is wearing a white dress, and the sister in front of me is wearing a red dress. Aren't they different?
"Huh?" Mu Huan was at a loss. She had never communicated with such a young child before! But this little brat was really very friendly. If he was a teenager of sixteen or seventeen, he would probably charm a lot of people. After all, his mouth was really lovable.
"Little boy, do you always call all young girls "beautiful sister" when you see them?"
"No, it's not." The little kid quickly retorted.
"No other sister is as beautiful as you. What's more, your face looks exactly like the sister in the painting that my mother hangs in her room, except that sister wears a white dress, while you wear a red dress."
The child pouted and looked at Mu Huan curiously. This sister really became more and more beautiful the more he looked at her.
"Me? I look very similar to the sister in your mother's room?" Mu Huan had a bold guess!
"Mu Hu! I've told you so many times not to run around, not to run around. Now you're so bold that you even dare to sneak out of the house with me, right?"
The child called "Mom" sweetly and ran over, leaving Mu Huan squatting there alone, not knowing how to face it!
In the past, Mu Huan would have happily thrown herself into her mother's arms, but at this moment, she couldn't do that! Humans and ghosts are on different paths. Not to mention that the human race in the lower realm is good, she couldn't let them get hurt. The most important thing was that she was afraid that the mother and daughter would be sad when they met!
Mu Huan stood up and prepared to leave when he heard a child calling from behind!
"Mom, mom, the sister in the red dress in front looks exactly like the sister in the white dress in the portrait hanging in your room!"
Si Xue paused in her embrace, looking at the girl in the red dress before her. Her back truly bore a striking resemblance to the one from a thousand years ago. She finally remembered everything, didn't she? Nothing could escape her.
However, Si Xue only knew that she was the daughter she had raised for more than ten years. How could she just disappear like that after having been in her arms for so many years and with so much affection for her?
"What? Now that you have recovered your memory, you don't even recognize your mother?" Si Xue's voice was choked with sobs. Mu Hu just looked at his mother as if he was about to cry!
Mu Huan paused before leaving, without looking back, but just left a word!
"What I hope for most now is that you are all safe and sound! The rest is no longer important! Mother, please treat the sight of me today as the last time you see me!" Just treat it as if she had never been your daughter, so that they won't be brought unnecessary troubles!
Moreover, now that they have a younger brother, they don’t have to worry about being lonely anymore!
Then, Mu Huan left without looking back!
Si Xue didn't cry. She knew in her heart that this day would come, and she just hoped that her Huan'er could survive and not repeat the same fate as a thousand years ago!
