Mo Yan and Li Muge's wedding was no longer a traditional affair.
For Mo Yan's sake, Li Muge specially ordered her subordinates to dig up a marriage tree and grow it in the backyard as quickly as possible.
She wanted to tell Mo Yan that even though the marriage tree wouldn't grant their wish to spend their lives together, she would still break all the constraints for him.
The eve of the wedding.
Li Muge, dressed in a phoenix coronet and wedding gown, ran over to find Mo Yan.
Who knew that Mo Yan, a grown man, would hide himself so thoroughly that she couldn't see anyone.
"What are you doing, Mo Yan? You've got some nerve! I've condescended to come find you, why are you hiding?"
“No, Li Muge, I’ve already asked the emcee. The bride and groom can’t meet on the eve of the wedding. That’s the rule.”
"Ignore them, they're talking about the past. My dear Mo Yan, let me give you a good kiss."
Li Muge climbed onto the windowsill and used magic to try to move the screen that was blocking Mo Yan's view.
Mo Yan also cast a spell to freeze the screen: "Li Muge, do you even know the rules?"
In the past, Mo Yan wasn't actually such a rule-abiding person. He was just afraid, and for the sake of his and Li Muge's future happiness, he was willing to suppress his longing for a while.
Li Muge reluctantly withdrew her spell. She knew that Mo Yan was really angry, but she was unwilling to back down.
"Fine, I won't see you then." Li Muge cast a spell and left.
And on the mountaintop not far from the Crimson Moon Sect.
Mu An and Ying Yuan sat on the ground, with a chess game in front of them that had already reached a dead end.
"Ying Yuan, I know why you came to me. I will not help you."
Now, whenever Mu An closes his eyes, he can see the sad look in Xiao Shaoyao's eyes, and he doesn't want to hurt Xiao Shaoyao anymore.
Moreover, he understood that Li Muge genuinely doted on Xiao Shaoyao as a younger sister.
If we really have to get to the bottom of this, Li Muge is probably the most innocent one.
"Oh, Mu'an, why don't you wait and see what happens tomorrow before you say anything..."
Ying Yuan waved his sleeve, and the scene of Li Muge and Mo Yan's wedding tomorrow appeared in the sky.
However, when Mu An saw that Xiao Shaoyao had been implicated by Li Muge and had her neck broken by the immortals, he could no longer remain calm.
"Think it over carefully. Only one of you, Li Muge and your beloved Xiao Shaoyao, can survive."
Ying Yuan gave Mu An a flute. Actually, what Mu An injected into Xiao Shaoyao's body last time was a Gu poison.
The Gu worm is still inside Xiao Shaoyao's body, and playing this flute can control Xiao Shaoyao.
"Okay." Mu An picked up the flute on the table, having already made up his mind.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly; after tomorrow, Little Peony would probably hate him even more.
But it doesn't matter. Even if Little Peony hates him, as long as she can live well, that's enough.
next day
The entire Crimson Moon Sect was filled with joy.
The marriage tree was planted on a large lawn in the back hall of the Crimson Moon Sect.
Little Peony and Earth Egg are busy planting flowers. Earth Egg is in charge of digging holes, while Little Peony is in charge of using spiritual power to promote growth.
Suddenly, flowers bloomed on both sides of the meadow.
Little Peony rarely showed such a happy smile: "Now, when Young Master Mo Yan leads Mu Ge to the Marriage Tree, it will definitely be especially beautiful, especially gorgeous."
Tu Dan was hungry, so he took out a chicken leg from his small cloth bag, took a bite of the chicken leg meat, and put it in his mouth.
"Yes, and Aunt Zuo Xia said they're going to make a ruckus in the bridal chamber tonight. Aunt Shao Yao, what does 'making a ruckus in the bridal chamber' mean? It sounds like a lot of fun. Can I go with them?"
Little Peony blushed immediately: "I don't know, I'd better not go."
"Alright, you little bumpkin, stop thinking about it. I'll take you to wash your hands."
"Okay." Besides his mother and father, Tudan listens to Aunt Shaoyao the most.
They arrived at a mountain spring near the Crimson Moon Sect. Little Peony rolled up her sleeves and washed Tu Dan's greasy little hands clean.
Just as she was about to leave with Tudan in her arms, Ying Yuan suddenly appeared and blocked Xiao Shaoyao's path.
"Who are you?" Little Peony nervously backed away, and Earth Egg immediately broke free from Little Peony's embrace, flashing its dragon horns at Ying Yuan as if issuing a dangerous warning.
Ying Yuan laughed and said, "You don't need to know, Peony Flower Fairy. You just need to know that I want your Peony Heart."
The heart of the peony is extremely spiritual. Ying Yuan plans to take her heart first to make medicine and refine pills. If this pill is successful...
That will cure his appearance.
When Ying Yuan learned of this possibility, his hands trembled uncontrollably. Heaven knows how much he didn't want to face his inhuman, ghostly appearance.
The heart of an ordinary peony flower fairy is naturally of no use to him.
However, the predecessor of the little peony was a spiritual plant cultivated by the Buddha Shakyamuni.
It is able to take form by absorbing the spiritual energy of Buddhism.
This is also why he wanted to cooperate with Mu An. He took Xiao Shaoyao's heart and waited for Mu An to play the flute.
Then the little peony will become a complete puppet.
This way, there's absolutely no chance of anything going wrong for him.
Ying Yuan simply raised his hand, and Xiao Shaoyao's entire body was sucked into his hand.
"What are you doing, you bad guy? Let go of my Aunt Peony!" Tu Dan flew to Ying Yuan's side and bit Ying Yuan's hand that was pinching Little Peony.
"That dragon is courting death." Ying Yuan raised his hand, gathered his magic power in his palm, and slammed the earth dragon hard onto the ground.
The clay egg fell to the ground, covered in scratches.
Little Peony wept with worry, and she said angrily to Ying Yuan, "You bastard, I'm going to kill you."
However, her spiritual power was far too weak for Ying Yuan, and the Gu worms in her body suppressed half of her spiritual power.
For Ying Yuan, crushing Xiao Shaoyao was as easy as crushing an ant.
"Little Peony, blame your good brother Mu An. If it weren't for him, I probably wouldn't have been able to catch you successfully."
