Chapter 173 The End is Also the Beginning



Bai Hao rushed forward, his sharp claws slicing through the water. The chilling aura seeped into his skin through his fur, causing Bai Hao to feel a slight unease.

wrong!

That sound just now...

It's not Qin Nan!

Bai Hao looked up, and "Qin Nan," controlled by the damaged heart, smiled with her eyes closed and head tilted. Suddenly, she reached out, and black water flowed up her claws, like parasitic vines tightly binding Bai Hao's beastly body.

"call--"

A sharp, knife-like wind blew in, forming a small tornado that repelled the water flow.

After Bai Hao escaped, he turned around and looked in the direction where Bai Muqiu had been, but he and Qin Nan were nowhere to be seen.

Ling Guang: "Bai Muqiu!"

Just as the guards rescued Bai Hao, they discovered that Bai Muqiu, carrying Qin Nan, suddenly appeared behind the mangled heart and "Qin Nan's" body.

Bai Hao hurriedly turned around upon hearing the sound.

The original damaged heart began to beat wildly the moment Qin Nan appeared, and the water gushing from the Nether River attacked Qin Nan.

Qin Nan smiled as he looked at the terrified, mutilated heart, stood up from Bai Muqiu's body, and the Vermilion Bird's power of fire instantly engulfed Qin Nan's body.

After the flames were extinguished, a bright red heart slowly began to beat.

Suddenly, Qin Nan defied the control of the damaged heart, raising her hand to stop the waters of the Underworld River. The water transformed into fine threads, pulling the bright red heart close to the damaged area on her chest, while the tendons connecting the damaged heart to the gap were expelled from her body.

A bright red heart was gently placed into the chest, and then the gap in the body slowly healed, forming a complete body.

In order to transform into a heart and possess Mo's body, the damaged heart lost too much power. If it weren't for the half-jade pendant that Qin Nan threw down, it wouldn't have broken through the barrier at this time.

It hadn't sensed Qin Nan's presence before, so it was relieved. It didn't expect that it was because Bai Ze's presence was so strong that it hadn't noticed.

As the body was fully restored, the person floating in the air suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils as black as ink.

He turned to look at the broken heart that had escaped, raised his hand, and the black mist and black water around him burst forth, pulling the broken heart back into his palm.

Mo: "So you really want to possess my body, huh? But there's no such thing as a free lunch. You've been using it for so long, you have to pay me something, right?"

Mo's voice was cold and clear, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. He slowly and forcefully gripped the broken heart. The black water and mist, which were very troublesome for Bai Hao and the other beasts, had no effect on Mo.

The broken heart struggled to beat, but in vain, its strength slowly being devoured by the ink.

Only when the broken heart turned into mist and disappeared, and the two halves of the jade pendant in Mo's body were put back together, and all the power returned, did Mo quietly raise his head.

He glanced at the four divine beasts, then at Bai Hao, before lowering his head to put on his clothes, the dark robe covering his fair skin.

Bai Hao: "You..."

Mo raised his eyes, looked at the beasts, and smiled slightly, "Long time no see, everyone. It's a pity you don't remember me!"

After speaking, Mo did not wait for their reply. He raised his hand and manipulated the waters of the Netherworld that surged around him. The waters fell back into the Netherworld, while the thick black mist that surged out of the Netherworld transformed into thousands of spider silks, which entangled all the ghosts that crawled out of the Netherworld and dragged them all back into the Netherworld.

For a moment, a mournful scream echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

Mo didn't pay attention; he certainly wouldn't miss any ghosts. He turned to look at Bai Muqiu, who was still in a daze, and manipulated the black mist into thin chains to take the things on Bai Muqiu's back back into his own hands.

He put the bracelet that Aunt Bai Xin gave him on his wrist, put away the moon-white clothes, and the source beads of the four divine beasts could still be used to nourish the seeds, so Mo did not intend to return them.

Huo Ming hesitated for a moment before putting away the Lei Zhumo he had given him, intending to return it later.

The flowerpot is so big I can only hug it, but the seeds inside are growing quite well.

Ling Guang: "Who are you?"

Watching Mo's series of actions, Ling Guang, with his impatient temper, couldn't help but ask.

Mo looked up at her and blinked: "Sister Lingguang, long time no see. Did you hit Yanjiu? Is he still cheating on you?"

Ling Guang: "Huh? You!"

Mo: "Don't worry, sister, you'll remember. You used to be so good to me!"

Ling Guang looked at Mo with a puzzled expression. She really had no memory of recognizing the person in front of her, but how did he know about her and Huo Long Yan Jiu?

As they spoke, all the ghosts that had crawled out of the underworld were pulled back, leaving only pitch blackness in the long, winding crack.

After a long silence, Bai Muqiu whispered behind Mo, "Brother Nan, are you... a beast?"

Mo turned his head to look at him, and reached out to stroke his fur. "Yes, I am a beast."

The calamities in the underworld have ceased, and other divine beasts, seeing the scene, are also coming over.

Mo could not linger any longer. He stared intently at Bai Hao, who had been watching him without saying a word, and the smile in his eyes vanished.

Mo: "Bai Hao, this is the name I gave you. Do you remember the name you gave me?"

You've always indulged me, even when I decided to enter the underworld and become the core of the array to suppress ghosts, you went along with my choice.

You promised you would find a way and come to me, but you broke your promise. I resented you for it, but it was my choice after all, and it's your choice whether you come or not.

However, perhaps fate is still on my side, allowing me to meet my parents again, to see you once more, and to know that you never broke your promise and that you have always been watching over me.

Bai Hao, it is my stubbornness, my obsession.

But if I say that everything I've done is the meaning of my existence, would you, out of pity for me, make that promise to me again?

Bai Hao, can I wait for you to come find me? This time, can you take me home?

Crystalline tears rolled down his cheeks, and Mo suddenly lost his balance and fell. Bai Hao was the first to react and bent down to chase after him.

Bai Hao: "Qin Nan!"

[Bai Hao, this seal can only last for three days. Remember to set up the barrier again.]

Also, let me tell you, my name is—Mo!

Bai Hao was slightly stunned. In a daze, Mo, holding the flowerpot, fell into the dark and endless abyss and was swallowed by the darkness.

As the ink entered, the black mist swirling on the crack solidified into thick, dark chains, firmly sealing off the Netherworld.

Bai Hao was blocked outside by the seal, and at this moment, the past memories that he had been unable to grasp came flooding back like a tide.

Besides Bai Hao, the fact that Mo existed in the Mountain and Sea Realm was also corrected and restored. He was no longer excluded from the rules of Heaven, and once again, the traces that had been erased from him slowly reappeared.

The most shocking thing was the Bai Ze clan. The place they had always designated as a forbidden area was the place they had guarded for a long time until Bai Hao was born. The crimson and blood-red behemoth that had been kept in that stone chamber was Bai Hao's heart.

Like Mo, he was born from a heart and transformed into form, creating his own cycle of reincarnation. However, when he was born, Mo's existence was erased, the Bai Ze clan forgot their mission, and Bai Hao forgot as well.

He forgot that he was reborn for a beast, and he wanders the mortal world, searching for the gaps in his memory.

Finally, the journey came to an end.

It was also the starting point.
