Faced with Li Muge's questioning, Yun Qi remained calm and composed, deceiving her with a nonchalant attitude.
"Sister, you may not know this, but although my soul wanders in the Yellow Springs, the deeds of the God of War Ye Luo are often heard there."
"I admire the Goddess of War's decisiveness in battle, so naturally I try to learn more about her."
"If I'm not mistaken, the death of this village made the God of War Ye Luo completely abandon the idea of relying on the Immortal Realm and begin to establish the Blazing Fire Palace in the mortal world."
"Fiery Palace, why is it called that? It doesn't sound good at all," Li Muge complained, but her eyes caught sight of Ye Luo's thin yet resolute back.
Even when facing the powerful immortal realm, she never flinched while holding a sick child.
Li Muge lowered her eyes, thinking that Ye Luo must hope that the fallen human world would be rekindled like a raging fire.
Looking at the child who was on the verge of death, Ye Luo's gentle tone was tinged with anxiety and ruthlessness as she suppressed her anger towards the Immortal Lord.
“Two immortal lords, it has been so long, your princess should have left by now. It is not that we are being presumptuous, but the child’s illness simply cannot be delayed any longer.”
One of the immortals guarding outside the barrier looked at the child in Ye Luo's hands and felt nauseous: "Take it away! This immortal looks like the child is going to die soon. You might as well let this child die sooner and be reborn sooner."
"Ugh, my temper is so bad." Li Muge rolled up her sleeves, ready to teach this rude and heartless man a lesson.
As a result, Jiang Cha grabbed her waist again.
Li Muge was particularly helpless: "Jiang Cha, what exactly do you want to do? Just because of what that idiot said, if I, the protector, kill him, it will be doing justice on behalf of Heaven."
Yun Qi certainly couldn't let Li Muge act impulsively. He even wanted to crack open Li Muge's head to see if it was all made of grass.
But considering his identity, Yun Qi suppressed his anger again and again: "Sister, please understand that we are in the past. What we are seeing is something that has already happened. What can we do?"
"That's true, but I can't just stand by and watch that child die. Besides, look at those two lackeys from the Immortal Realm, how arrogant they are. This protector must teach them a lesson."
Yun Qi patted Li Muge's head, his eyes gentle: "I know you're sad, but you have to think about it. If the people in this village hadn't died, then the ancient history wouldn't have changed."
"Ye Luo would never betray the Immortal Realm. Besides, even if you, sister, saved these villagers once out of kindness, this world is still like this. Sister, do you really think you can save them a second time?"
“I can’t save them.” Li Muge’s eyes reddened. “I’m so useless. How can I save these people? I can’t even give my family a peaceful life.”
Yun Qi also thought of Ping An. As a father, how could he be a competent one?
"Sister, don't be sad, you've already done enough."
Li Muge smiled when Jiang Cha comforted him: "You didn't know me before, how do you know I'm doing a good job? Am I someone you admire?"
"That's why you know so much about me, the protector."
Li Muge's eyes held a hint of probing.
Jiang Cha smiled and said, "I don't know why, but I always feel that I'm very familiar with you, and I can't help but want to get closer to you. Sister, I heard that you already have a concubine. I wonder if I can be your husband?"
Li Muge: "..."
“This isn’t quite right.” Li Muge was genuinely stunned: “Impossible, Jiang Cha, you might not know, but I’ve already divorced Cang Lan, that coachman.”
"So I'm not thinking about relationships anymore." After Li Muge finished speaking, she assumed that Jiang Cha must be sad after being rejected, and might even cry.
To everyone's surprise, Jiang Cha actually laughed, seemingly in a good mood.
It made her feel a bit confused, and when she realized it, Jiang Cha was slapping her.
Yun Qi was happy for a simple reason: Li Muge had refused, which, in effect, meant he had refused the real ginger tea.
"Yes, sister, I hope you keep it up."
"Hey, Jiang Cha, what's wrong with you?" Li Muge was baffled.
In the following days, when the village ran out of water and food, all the villagers, who were somewhat hungry, began to think of ways to dig in the soil.
Ye Luo heard the sick child crying his heart out.
Meanwhile, Nangong Ling and Huanglian Xianjun were observing the village through a glass ball from a high pavilion, her voice sweet and innocent.
"Immortal Lord Huanglian, do you think these humans will eventually resort to cannibalism? If they really do, I will go back and tell the Heavenly Emperor to stop helping these humans in the future."
"This is such a hassle. I really don't understand. Humans just die, what's the point of saving them?"
Huanglian Xianjun didn't actually care about human good or evil; he just treated the bet as a joke.
Now I just hope that these humans won't let him lose.
Li Muge was observing the group of people invisibly. If he saved the people, it would prevent Ye Luo from turning against the Immortal Realm.
So……
Li Muge pressed down on his head.
As long as he can find a way to let Ye Luo see the true face of the Immortal Realm and awaken Ye Luo.
Then these villagers could just die.
Li Muge tapped Jiang Cha, who was pretending to be asleep beside her, and revealed her plan.
Yun Qi also opposed Li Muge's plan.
In his view, the lives and deaths of these people didn't matter much to him.
Li Muge tapped Jiang Cha's forehead: "Help or not? If not, this protector will go by myself."
Yun Qi grabbed Li Muge's sleeve and gritted his teeth: "Fine, I'll help."
"You're on the right track. I have high hopes for you."
To make Ye Luo lose faith in the Immortal Realm.
The first step is to let Ye Luo know about the bet in the Immortal Realm.
"Jiang Cha, for the sake of the bigger picture, we have no choice but to sacrifice ourselves and use your good looks to seduce Nangong Ling."
Yun Qi frowned, a bad feeling creeping over him: "Li Muge, what do you want to do?"
Li Muge smiled mysteriously.
But Yun Qi had already guessed what she wanted to do.
Half an hour later, Nangong Ling saw Yun Qi in the glass ball, and her eyes lit up immediately.
The man's name seemed to be Jiang Cha. Nangong Ling had been distracted about the bet ever since she returned.
They originally sent people to look for Jiang Cha, but those subordinates were all useless; they couldn't even find a man.
Nangong Ling felt that only a man as handsome as him was worthy of her status.
The young novice also noticed Yun Qi.
He gave all the food to the other villagers, who were already starving and their mouths were white.
Seeing Yun Qi standing calmly outside the village, his pupils constricted and he quickly called out to his senior brother.
“Brother Shakya, Brother Shakya, look, that scumbag is outside the village now.”
"Senior brother, I already told you, this scumbag is definitely in cahoots with those outsiders. By the way, where is Miss Li? I haven't seen her anywhere."
Shakyamuni held prayer beads in his hand, his narrow eyes slightly narrowed, staring at Jiang Cha in the intense sunlight.
