Li Muge arrived in the western suburbs, but after searching for a long time, she still couldn't find the child that Li Wanqing had mentioned.
She instinctively sensed something was wrong and was about to leave when she found the exit blocked.
Several cultivators set up a magic array over the entire western suburbs, so that not even a fly could escape, let alone a person.
"Fellow Daoists, what exactly is going on?" Li Mu asked, holding a medicine packet in his hand, looking somewhat uneasy.
"Excuse me, young lady, the western suburbs are sealed off. You can only enter, not leave," a disciple said humbly, offering a slight apology.
The other disciple was rather arrogant.
"What's there to apologize for? We spread the word about the western suburbs being sealed off a long time ago, and this woman still insisted on going there. Does she deserve to cause us trouble?"
Having said that, Li Muge understood everything. That damned Li Wanqing actually dared to plot against her.
Sealing off the western suburbs was a decision made by Xuan Chen and the elders of other sects after much deliberation.
Although this is tantamount to taking the lives of the people in the western suburbs, it is worth it if the sacrifice of only a small number of people can be exchanged for the rapid modeling of the majority of people.
To Xuan Chen's surprise, Li Muge would somehow end up in the western suburbs.
The western suburbs are now no different from hell.
Xuan Chen cast a spell in the western suburbs, intending to remove the barrier there without saying a word.
The other elders rushed to stop them upon hearing the news.
"Sect Leader Xuan Chen, have you gone mad? What if the disease spreads and infects other people? Can you bear the responsibility?"
These words were spoken by Elder Sun of the Green Mountain Sect.
Another older elder spoke softly, trying to ease the atmosphere.
"Sect Leader Xuan Chen, I understand your love for your disciple, but the bigger picture must come first! Once the formation is dispelled, the consequences will be unimaginable."
“It’s not just Suzhou; all the uninfected people in the entire Dongluo Kingdom could suffer.”
The kind-speaking elder seemed somewhat familiar to Li Muge, and upon reflection, she realized it must be the savior elder she had met during the last trial.
Li Muge also chimed in, "Master, you don't need to worry about me. I'll take good care of myself inside."
"Alright, Mu Ge, you wait for me. I will definitely find a way to cure this disease." For the sake of the bigger picture, Xuan Chen forced himself to harden his heart.
"Yes, Master, I believe you. I will be fine here."
After Li Muge finished speaking, she immediately turned and left, afraid that if she looked at her master again, she would feel reluctant to leave.
She knew that the illness in the western suburbs must be very serious, otherwise her master and the elders would not have discussed sealing off the western suburbs.
The deeper Li Muge went, the more he saw those afflicted with the deadly disease lying pathetically on the ground.
Some of their bellies were bulging high.
Some were so thin they were just skin and bones.
Their eyes were filled with emptiness and despair, though there were exceptions in this city.
Logically, with such an astonishing rate of transmission, no one in the western suburbs should have escaped infection.
But some were normal; although they were also emaciated from hunger, they were not infected by the deadly disease at all.
The cultivation sects had actually discovered this strange phenomenon long ago, and they captured an old man who had never been infected since the outbreak of the deadly disease for research.
However, whether it was his blood, bones, or meridians, he was no different from other people suffering from the disease.
Gradually, the cultivators on the path of immortality became disillusioned with this and no longer wanted to waste their time.
Even though Li Muge was trapped here, she didn't give up taking care of these patients.
But at night, she was still very scared when she was alone.
She was still young, and she really didn't want to die.
She also wanted to become an immortal.
What are you thinking about?
“I want to…” Li Muge hurriedly stood up, and her eyes met Yun Qi’s gentle gaze.
"Regent, why are you here?" Li Muge subconsciously pushed Yun Qi out, then suddenly realized.
Once anyone enters the western suburbs, they are definitely not allowed to leave.
Thinking this, Li Muge's eyes welled up with tears: "Regent, how could you be so foolish? You knew perfectly well that the western suburbs had been sealed off, yet you still came in to your death."
Yun Qi's eyes darted around: "How could that be? Li Muge, you wish! Do you think I'm that stupid as to go and die with you? I just wanted to... I just wanted to..."
"I want to..." Yun Qi was about to speak.
Unexpectedly, Li Muge suddenly stood on tiptoe and kissed Yun Qi.
Yun Qi's pupils contracted.
Then he put his arm around Li Muge's waist.
"You idiot regent, doesn't the book say that you should close your eyes when you kiss?"
Li Muge hugged Yun Qi's neck: "Regent, I will never let you down in the future."
"Okay." Even Yun Qi himself didn't realize that his voice was trembling when he said this.
"Your Majesty, this is the first time I've ever loved someone so much. Perhaps I haven't done enough, but I will definitely try my best to learn."
Li Muge gave his honest guarantee.
Yun Qi stood with his hands behind his back: "Li Muge, even death cannot separate us."
"Pah, pah, what are you talking about dying for?" Li Muge held Yun Qi's hand: "We won't die."
"It would be good if everyone survived." Li Muhe tilted her head and looked at Yun Qi.
"Your Highness, you say Wu Qingyi's medical skills are so good, is there any hope of curing him if we invite him to treat the patient?"
Yun Qi's body stiffened: "Li Muge, I actually think that lives unrelated to people aren't that important."
"Anyway, this world is not that wonderful to begin with."
"Where! Come with me." Li Muge held Yun Qi's hand tightly.
At the end of the street, you'll find many people living a life of hardship and deprivation.
The sick person couldn't stand the stuffiness in the room, so he simply slept outside.
