Mo Li pursed her lips and nodded. "I understand, Senior Brother. To protect others, you must first have the strength to protect yourself. I will take this time to work hard to learn how to protect myself and her."
Mo Han nodded and patted Mo Li's shoulder, saying, "It's good that you understand. Also, your meridian injuries are too severe this time, and you can't use your destiny energy for the time being. If possible, I hope that you can break through this tribulation and condense your own demon core to become a true powerhouse!"
"I'll give it a try!" Mo Li nodded and said.
"Alright, then you do your best. I have a mission to complete, so I won't keep you company." Mo Han turned to Mo Chen and said, "I've heard about what happened to you. Yan Ligu asked me to inform you that once you've recovered, you should go and receive your punishment!"

"Mo Chen, we're friends, right?" Mo Li asked Mo Chen with a serious expression.
Mo Chen stared blankly at Mo Li. "What?"
Mo Chen was surprised that Mo Li would suddenly speak to him so seriously.
Are they friends?
Thinking about what they've been through recently, they really do seem like friends...
Mo Chen pursed his lips, looking at Mo Li with some disbelief. "Mo Li, do you... do you really consider me a friend?"
Mo Li smiled slightly, "Friend, please tell me how I can help you!"
