"A seal." Li Muge suddenly thought of his past life.
She retreated pitifully, never expecting that no matter how many times she went around in circles, she still couldn't escape the fate of her previous life.
Yun Qi still wanted to seal her away.
"Why? And why now?" Li Muge, dressed in only a thin outer garment, smashed the bathtub with a single blow.
The water inside filled the entire hall.
"There's no reason why. To be honest, I sometimes prefer your alternate personality. At least she wouldn't be as foolish as you, falling into my hands time and time again."
Yun Qi's thin lips parted slightly.
With clearly defined knuckles, he held a black talisman in his hand.
When the black talisman burned out, a cloud of black mist enveloped Li Muge.
"No, I don't want to be locked up there." Fear gradually filled Li Muge's heart.
"Yun Qi, why are you so cruel to me when you clearly love me?" Li Muge still hadn't forgotten being locked in the dark by Yun Qi.
The first hundred years.
Two hundred years.
Three hundred years.
Even after eight hundred years, she could tell herself that nothing was wrong, that as long as she could persevere and live, there would always be hope for survival.
But later...
She was so lonely.
Alone in the darkness, she had even somewhat forgotten how to pronounce words.
"Impossible, Yun Qi, I would never let you seal me in this godforsaken place." Li Muge mobilized her cultivation, and flames appeared all around her.
The flames transformed into a phoenix.
It roared angrily and charged towards Yun Qi.
Yun Qi stood with his hands behind his back.
With a thought, the power of origin directly blocked his path.
Unable to dissuade Yun Qi, Li Muge dared not relax his gaze the slightest while casting the spell.
Just then, a silver needle pierced Li Muge's neck from behind, and Li Muge instantly felt as if his hand had gone numb.
"Who is it?" Li Muge gritted her teeth, wanting to see which villain had conspired with Yun Qi to frame her.
"Your Majesty, it's been a long time." Wu Qingyi approached gracefully, holding a folding fan in her hand.
"Wu Qingyi, you actually... you actually dared to conspire with Yun Qi to frame me. If I had known, I shouldn't have saved you because of Shao Junhao. You should have just died."
"Junhao." Wu Qingyi smiled bitterly, shaking her folding fan, when she heard Li Muge mention this name: "It's a pity that after today, I'm afraid my brotherhood with Shao Junhao will be over."
Li Muge couldn't understand Wu Qingyi's meaning. She was currently poisoned, and if she were facing other enemies, she might have delayed the time to detoxify.
But she ran into Yun Qi.
Yun Qi felt a pang of pain in his heart. To be honest, what Mu Ge said to him that day had indeed moved him deeply.
But compared to dying together.
He wanted Li Muge to live.
Poisoned, Li Muge struggled to use his Phoenix True Fire and was quickly injured by Yun Qi, falling onto the steps.
Wu Qingyi shouted, "Yun Qi, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and seal Li Muge inside!"
Upon hearing this...
Yun Qi pursed his thin lips, no longer hesitating.
The ashes left after the talisman burned all rushed towards Li Muge, tightly surrounding her in a circle.
Li Muge glared at Wu Qingyi with hatred.
What deep-seated hatred does this bastard have for her? Did she dig up this Wu family's ancestral grave?
Halfway up the palace.
The floral patterns of the formation gradually turned into a black vortex.
No matter how unwilling Li Muge was, he could only repeat the fate of his previous life and be sealed by Yun Qi.
Everything has settled down.
Yun Qi clenched his fist and cast a spell to leave without delay.
He was going to keep his appointment.
A pact destined to end in death.
--
[Oh no, Li Muge, look! I told you Yun Qi was no good. Now look what's happened, we're probably doomed.]
Li Muge continued to fall in the darkness.
Just as she was about to fall heavily onto the cold floor of the prison cell from her previous life, an invisible force slowly supported her.
The power dissipated only after Li Muge landed safely on the floor.
Returning to this familiar place from her previous life, Li Muge thought she would be afraid.
But when the feared reality finally arrives...
Li Muge felt mostly calm.
"Stop making noise." Li Muge's brain was about to explode from the noise of the alternate personality's voice.
Calm down, don't argue.
[Li Muge, we've all fallen to this state because of you. If it weren't for you, Yun Qi would have died by my sword long ago, and we wouldn't be prisoners now.]
The alternate personality has a shrill voice.
"I know, don't worry, I have a way to get out," Li Muge said indifferently.
"Get out? How could you possibly have a way to get out? Li Muge, stop spouting nonsense. If you really had a way, would we have been trapped in this abyss for tens of thousands of years in our past lives?"
The alternate personality simply didn't believe it; she felt that Li Muge was definitely lying to her.
"I didn't lie to you." Li Muge got up and meditated to heal his injuries for two hours. It took him another full hour to remove the silver needles from his neck.
[Li Muge, what exactly are that Yun guy and that Wu Qingyi up to?]
"He probably wanted to protect me." If she hadn't been reborn and hadn't fallen in love with Yun Qi, she would probably have thought that Yun Qi sealed him away to take revenge on her for torturing him.
But time has passed.
Li Muge gradually came to understand this cold-blooded man who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.
Beneath its cold, hard exterior.
Hidden within is a heart that yearns to be loved more than anyone else.
"Alternate personality, we've been together for so many years, you don't really think I'm that stupid, that I was sealed in this wretched place by Yun Qi's formation in my past life, and that I wouldn't have a backup plan to break this formation in this life."
[Really. Li Muge, you're so amazing, I absolutely adore you.]
Li Muge's words rekindled hope in her alternate personality; she didn't want the rest of her life to be like her previous one.
To be trapped in this hellish place for the rest of one's life.
"Li Muge, why haven't you escaped yet? I really don't want to stay in this awful place for another second."
The alternate personality impatiently urged Li Muge.
Li Muge meditated, focusing his internal energy.
"Don't rush, you have to give me some time to break this formation. But it's so strange, why is my heart so flustered?"
[I didn't know, Li Muge, you're really strange. The man beside you doesn't seem any worse than Yun Qi, only his appearance and magical power are slightly lower than Yun Qi's. But Li Muge, why do you have to hang yourself on this tree that's always going against us?]
The alternate personality's earnest advice stemmed from her role in protecting the primary personality.
She really didn't understand.
Love is such a thing.
Believing in it will bring bad luck.
Didn't your own personality suffer enough at Wuchen's hands?
Yun Qi truly loves her.
Didn't Wuchen truly love her in the past, but in the end, he still abandoned her without hesitation for the sake of the world?
