Even from a great distance, Li Muge could almost hear the sound of Green Water's heart breaking.
"Sorry, he's out of his mind. Green Water, you're beautiful and have a good temper. Don't worry, we'll definitely help you find your Mr. Right this time."
Li Muge covered Mo Yan's mouth and pulled him back, afraid that he would say something shocking again. She was very disappointed in him: "Mo Yan, I'm not trying to criticize you, but your mouth is like poison when you talk to those girls."
"Young man, you're more likely to stay single for ten thousand years if you act like this."
After Li Muge finished speaking, Mo Yan awkwardly straightened his clothes: "Then, Sect Master, how have I usually spoken to you?"
"To me," Li Muge raised his head and thought for a moment, "I'm alright to you, but don't get your hopes up. Although I'm engaged to you in a ghost marriage..."
“But that’s not my personal wish.” Li Muge grabbed Mo Yan’s arm. “I secretly glanced at the snake demon. The most urgent thing is to find a suitable husband for this Green Water Girl.”
"Green Water is a snake demon. For the sake of our happiness, I think we should find Green Water a demon as well, so that the two of us will have common topics to talk about."
"That's true, but with so many demons, how are we supposed to find the one Green Water likes?" Mo Yan fell into deep thought; she was really not good at finding partners for people.
"If you're not good at something, you're good at something else." Li Muge went to find the matchmaker, but as soon as the matchmaker heard that she was going to be a matchmaker for Lu Shui, she immediately waved her hand.
He looked troubled.
"Why?" Li Muge added some more spirit stones, and although the demon matchmaker was somewhat tempted, she still firmly refused.
"Girl, you have no idea how troublesome the snake demon Green Water is around here. I don't even know how many fine young men I've introduced to her."
"The first day they were all lovey-dovey, but the next day she accused him of being a pervert. You tell me, with her figure and looks, very few men could resist her."
“I asked those young men, and it turned out they hadn’t done anything inappropriate, they just wanted to hold hands.”
"As a result, Green Water did something and started fighting with someone."
"As you know, young lady, Green Water has cultivated for thousands of years. Ordinary demons can't beat her. As a result, those men who were beaten have caused me a lot of trouble."
Li Muge replied, "That's not right, you wicked matchmaker. I think even if Green Water's figure is too alluring, that's her freedom."
"Even if it's just holding hands, if the woman doesn't agree, the man should respect her wishes."
The matchmaker nodded: "Isn't that right? I thought about it later and it made sense. So I found a dull tree spirit for him."
"He's a local hero, everyone praises his good character. But we've only been settled for a couple of days, and now Green Water disagrees, saying he's too introverted and doesn't like to take baths."
"Tell me who can be like her. She's a snake demon, and she loves to stay in the water all day long. This person is a tree demon, of course he likes to bask in the sun."
"Anyway, if you want me to act as a matchmaker for other girls and boys, no problem. But if it's about Lüshui, I don't have that ability."
"Hey, you demonic matchmaker, I can add more spirit stones, but wait, think it over!"
No matter what Li Muge said, the demonic mediator ran faster than a rabbit, as if a ghost was chasing him.
"You should just give up on that idea." Mo Yan held a Buddhist rosary in his hand, his voice clear and refreshing, like a spring of sweet water: "Li Muge, you should think about it, if Lushui can find a husband through a matchmaker."
"Why bother spending so much money to find the Spirit Ferryman?"
“That’s right, how come I didn’t think of that?” Li Muge had a flash of inspiration: “If Green Water likes to bathe, we can find a fish demon, or a river fairy, or it would be best if we could catch a dragon.”
"As the saying goes, dragons and snakes are of the same family. It's a pity that Tudan is too small, otherwise I, as his mother, would take this opportunity to make some arrangements for him."
Mo Yan: "..."
His thin lips moved slightly: "Then how about we go take a look at the river?"
"You're a promising young man," Li Muge said, patting Mo Yan on the shoulder.
The two of them spent the whole afternoon searching all the mountains, rivers and lakes in the vicinity, but they couldn't find a suitable candidate.
Li Muge and Mo Yan were exhausted and sat down under a tree.
Just as they were about to close their eyes and doze off for a while, Li Muge suddenly sensed something was wrong and quietly grabbed Mo Yan's hand.
Mo Yan immediately understood.
The people Ying Yuan sent couldn't see Li Muge at all; their target from beginning to end was Mo Yan.
Several masked men in black exchanged glances and silently approached Mo Yan.
"The lord has ordered that Mo Yan be captured alive today."
Just as they were about to get close to Mo Yan, they suddenly discovered that Mo Yan, who was right in front of them, had suddenly disappeared.
"What's going on!" A man in black looked around, unaware that Mo Yan had already flashed to his side and easily killed him with his sword.
Li Muge sat in the tree watching the show, and took a bite of a peach. The people who were trying to assassinate Mo Yan didn't seem to have any sense of caution. How could such a few small fry possibly be a match for Mo Yan?
Suddenly, Li Muge spotted a colorful bird in the center of the lake—no, not a bird, but a phoenix.
He was floating on the lake, probably already dead. Li Muge had been focusing most of her attention on Mo Yan.
But she found that her gaze was starting to drift uncontrollably toward the center of the lake.
The next instant, she felt a jolt in her mind and lost consciousness.
When Li Muge opened her eyes again, the alter ego had taken over her body, and her gaze had become sharp and ruthless.
Without hesitation, Li Muge, the alternate personality, threw away the peach she hadn't finished eating.
The spell was cast directly at the center of the lake, disregarding the ghost contract between the main personality and Mo Yan.
Once in the center of the lake, Li Muge lightly touched the water with her toes.
They wanted to pick up the five-colored phoenix, but unexpectedly, in an instant, blue light burst forth from the center of the lake.
The lake in the center was like a whirlpool, sucking in Li Muge's alternate personality.
Mo Yan's pupils dilated in shock upon seeing this: "Li Muge."
Taking advantage of the moment when Mo Yan was distracted, the man in black took out the black mist given to him by Ying Yuan and struck Mo Yan's body with a palm.
Mo Yan's pupils immediately turned black and swirled, losing their usual brightness.
"Quickly, pierce his collarbone and lock his immortal root so that he can no longer use immortal magic."
The masked men dared not relax, and with a flick of their sleeves, they hooked the pipa hooks, effectively blocking the flow of cultivation energy through Mo Yan's meridians.
In an instant, Mo Yan fainted in mid-air.
Li Muge, in her alternate personality, immediately recognized the fallen phoenix as Su Xun.
Ignoring the pain from the backlash of the ghost contract, she clung tightly to Su Xun.
Upon entering the vortex, the alternate personality Li Muge cast a spell to create a protective shield for herself, holding Su Xun, who at that time had not yet returned to human form.
Previously, Li Muge's alternate personality had been dormant, and he didn't know what had happened to Su Xun to cause him to end up in such a sorry state.
