When Mo Yan woke up, he felt utterly powerless. He had become Li Muge again. This damned fate was definitely playing a cruel joke on him.
Why is it that, even though he wanted to sever ties with Li Muge, fate somehow kept him inextricably linked with her?
Tantai Ling is dead.
When the Xuan Guang Sect blamed him, Elder Xuan Ce was even more furious. He never expected that the Wan Fo Sect could mess up such a simple rescue operation.
"Kneel down." The Wanfo Sect Master said coldly. He had to give the Xuanguang Sect an explanation, and Mo Yan had taken all the blame for his dereliction of duty in front of Elder Xuan Ce.
"Here he comes. Punish Mo Yan with three hundred lashes."
“Master, this is not just Senior Brother’s fault. He should be punished, and I should be punished too,” Tan Shang stepped forward to stop him.
When Tantai Ling's body was found, she had already died from a broken neck.
Their eldest brother was always by their side; they had even seen Tantai Ling in person. How could they possibly blame everything on their eldest brother?
"Stop talking. Business is none of your business. I won't shirk responsibility. It was my dereliction of duty. Please punish me, Master."
"Well, it's good that you understand your teacher." The sect leader of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect nodded in satisfaction. Regardless of whether the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect was responsible for Tantai Ling's death, someone had to take the punishment.
Not long after, Li Muge, dressed in a thin white undergarment, knelt in the hall, facing the Buddha statue. The already festering and bleeding flesh on his back was whipped raw again.
"Senior Brother." Tan Shang's eyes were red, but Elder Xuan Ce's face remained icy. Although his junior sister was usually spoiled and willful, he was determined to find the murderer who killed her.
After being lashed another 150 times, Li Muge clenched his fists, then suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart. When he opened his eyes again, everything was dark.
"Mu Ge, are you Mu Ge?" Little Peony asked tentatively.
"Yes, my back hurts so much. Where is this?" Li Muge touched her back, but there was no wound on it.
“Crimson Moon Sect, Mu Ge, let me tell you, the Earth Dragon Egg has been nourished by spiritual energy these past few days, and it seems to be about to hatch.”
Little Peony couldn't wait to tell Li Muge the interesting things she had learned.
Li Muge gripped the blanket tightly: "Oh no, I've really put Mo Yan in a terrible situation now."
"What has ruined Young Master Mo Yan's life?" Little Peony asked, puzzled. But Li Muge didn't say much. He got out of bed and cast a spell to leave the palace.
"Mu Ge." The flower wreath on Xiao Shaoyao's head wilted instantly. She really didn't understand Mu. Why did Mu Ge have to go find Mo Yan again after all the trouble of getting it back?
After being whipped three hundred times, Mo Yan was also punished by being confined to the Frozen Purgatory for five months of cultivation.
This icy inferno is perpetually snowy and bitterly cold, with no one to bring food or clothing. Coupled with Mo Yan's severe injuries, he could easily die inside.
When Li Muge learned of this, she felt guilty. She was not wronged in suffering these things, since she was the one who killed the person, but she felt guilty for causing Mo Yan's injury.
However, because she had argued with Mo Yan a few days ago, she could only use magic to make Mo Yan fall into a deep sleep.
Then, cautiously, like a thief, she approached Mo Yan and brought him the finest medicine to heal his injuries.
But little did they know, Mo Yan was not under the spell at all; he was just pretending to be asleep.
He felt the woman's concern for him, and it was as if something had pierced his heart.
The pills that Li Muge brought were holy medicines for healing injuries given to her by Mo Li, capable of healing wounds and removing scars extremely quickly.
Then he fed Mo Yan a fasting pill and nodded in satisfaction.
Now I don't have to worry about Mo Yan getting into trouble.
"Alas, Mo Yan, I'll admit I've wronged you this time."
After Li Muge finished doing all this, she was about to leave when Mo Yan suddenly grabbed her hand tightly.
"Mo Yan, you're awake?"
Li Muge felt a little nervous. It was awkward for the two of them to meet face to face again after their argument.
"Hmm." Mo Yan finished dressing, a hint of bewilderment appearing on his dignified face.
"Oh, then I'll be going now." Li Muge was about to leave.
"Sect Master," Mo Yan called out to Li Muge, "I apologize for the matter of the Earth Spirit Orb."
"But I cannot disobey my master's orders. I have just found the earth dragon egg and want to exchange it for something else."
Li Muge couldn't see it, and even Mo Yan didn't notice, that the cinnabar mark on his forehead had completely disappeared.
He fell in love.
"Hmm, is that so? It's alright, I guessed it anyway. It's just that I feel that earth dragon egg is really innocent. Besides, it's about to hatch, so it's really not good to deprive it of the chance to be born."
After everything was discussed openly, Li Muge and Mo Yan reconciled and were as good as new.
"Actually, Mo Yan, I killed Tantai Ling, but I did not kill innocent people indiscriminately. Tantai Ling deserved to die."
Li Muge offered an awkward explanation, somewhat afraid that Mo Yan would get angry and break up with her again.
"I know." Mo Yan raised his hand and flicked the snowflakes off Li Muge's hair.
By the time he wanted to talk to Li Muge, Li Muge had already fallen asleep.
Mo Yan was so doting on Li Muge that he didn't even realize it himself. For some reason, he started to feel his heart filled with joy whenever he saw Li Muge.
Her joys and sorrows will affect my own emotions.
Li Muge, dressed in red, sat next to Mo Yan, her head slightly tilted and resting on Mo Yan's shoulder.
Mo Yan's heart was filled with tenderness, and he could no longer hide his love. He lowered his head slightly, wanting to place a kiss on Li Muge's forehead.
"Yun Qi, Yun Qi, where are you? I, I miss you so much." Li Muge couldn't help but call out this name in her sleep.
These few words shattered Mo Yan's heart. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. It turned out that Li Muge was still thinking about that dead man.
He gently stroked Li Muge's face.
His gentle eyes gradually turned obsessive; one day, he would make sure that Li Muge's world consisted only of him.
Large, fluffy snowflakes fell one after another.
The two figures, one red and one white, stood out strikingly in the snow.
When Su Xun found Li Muge, he witnessed this scene. He wanted to stop it, but he couldn't.
In the grand scheme of things, everything is preordained, and he cannot disrupt Mu Ge's tribulation.
A hint of sadness appeared on his alluring face.
There was also a sense of helplessness.
Ying Yuan obtained two hearts, and he still needs eight more. He can then use these ten hearts to refine and obtain the World-Breaking Pearl.
At that time, the Three Realms will usher in a new round of illusory cleansing.
However, not everyone has a heart that can be used.
Only those born in the yin year, yin month, and yin hour can benefit from this method. This is another way that Ying Yuan found after a long period of time to break the barrier between the immortal and demon realms.
Li Muge stayed with Mo Yan in this icy inferno for two days, feeling that Mo Yan had changed, yet also seemed unchanged.
However, the moment of parting always comes. Li Muge said goodbye to Mo Yan, and as she was leaving, Mo Yan suddenly hugged Li Muge tightly.
Li Muge was puzzled.
Unexpectedly, Mo Yan suddenly pulled down her shoulder and bit her fair shoulder hard until blood flowed out.
"Ouch, Mo Yan, why are you acting like a dog!" Li Muge was in excruciating pain.
Mo Yan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said in a dark tone, "Li Muge, you must always remember that my name is Mo Yan."
