"You, you're not fair! You're using me and then discarding me! Believe me, if you say another word, I'll pluck all your leaves off! I'll make you bald!" Gu Liyan said fiercely.
"Hmph, do you think I'm afraid of you? I helped you solve your problem and you still yell at me. You deserve to be single forever!" Yin Yang retorted.
"Pah! I'll give you exactly what I said!"
Their amicable discussion suddenly turned into a mutual rant.
At this moment, Gu Liyan was unaware that the story of the world he was gradually forgetting was far from over—
Looking at the contents of the mission notification in his hand, Mo Chen's hand trembled slightly.
"Damn it!" Mo Han cursed under his breath, angrily putting away the mission book.
He never expected that Mo Han's first task for him would be to go back to this world and kill people! Looking at the list of familiar names, he trembled with rage.
Mo Han stood at the city gate, looking at the city tower with the words "Imperial City" written on it. His heart couldn't help but race. He didn't know if he would ever meet his younger brother again after returning here. After all, he hadn't even said goodbye when he left.
Just like when he left last time, Wu Wenfeng must be very disappointed in himself.
"Why--"
Mo Han sighed. The road ahead still had to be walked; there was no escaping it!
Just as he was about to step into the imperial city, an anxious and aged voice hurriedly called out, "Stop! Do not move rashly!"
Mo Chen subconsciously stopped in mid-air, turned his head and looked at the person who called him in confusion. The person was wearing a patched gray-yellow robe, with a wrinkled old face, messy hair, and anxious eyes. He ran up to him while calling out to him.
Looking at the somewhat disheveled old man, Mo Han felt a strange sense of familiarity, but after thinking about it, he figured it was just one of those common old faces he'd seen too many times, and didn't pay much attention. Out of politeness, he politely inquired:
"Sir, were you the one who called me just now?"
The old man arrived, panting, and after a few breaths, said irritably, "Nonsense, is there anyone else here besides you, you idiot?"
Mo Han was immediately displeased. He had at least offered a polite greeting, so why did this old man immediately call him a fool? He hadn't expected that in just a few days since he left, people in this world had already started to take advantage of their age! The world was going to the dogs, and morality was declining!
Mo Han smiled broadly, but her words were already starting to reveal their sharp edges:
"Old man, you're right. I'm not going to argue with you, I'll be going now!"
After saying that, he straightened his face, turned around, and left.
"Wait, wait! Young man, can't you understand human language? I'm trying to stop you from going into the city to die, why won't you listen to my advice!" The old man hurriedly pulled Mo Chen away.
Mo Chen was stunned, and was actually pulled back by the old man! Damn! I didn't expect this old man to be so strong! I almost got hurt!
"Hey! Old man, I respect you as a man, let go of me!" Mo Chen pointed at the old man with his free finger. How could he forget that while same-sex couples can be together, even elderly people should keep their distance!
The old man glared at Mo Chen and released his grip. "I was just anxious, afraid you'd go into the city and get yourself killed! You don't appreciate kindness, you don't understand anything!"
"Hey, you crazy old man, you don't speak human language to me, how am I supposed to understand you! You say you're kind, but I think you're doing this on purpose!" Hearing the old man's words, Mo Chen spoke up in annoyance, so angry that he almost rolled up his sleeves and started a fight with him.
"Ahem, I stopped you out of kindness, lad, because it's your first time in the capital and you're unfamiliar with the situation..." Just as he finished speaking, the old man looked up and saw that Mo Chen was completely ignoring him, heading straight for the capital. He immediately shouted urgently:
"Hey! Kid! Why did you leave already?"
"Nonsense, why would I stay here and spend the New Year with you if I didn't leave?" Mo Chen sneered.
The old man hurriedly chased after him, calling out, "Wait for me!"
Seeing the old man follow, Mo Chen rolled his eyes in anger.
Being pestered by someone is obviously a sign of personal charm, but being pestered by an elderly man in his sixties, how can that be associated with charm?
He really is a disheveled and insane old man! What terrible things has he done?!
"Young man!" the old man called out, then quickly covered his mouth, cautiously looked around to make sure no one else was there, and hurriedly chased after him, whispering in Mo Chen's ear:
"Young man, let me tell you, this imperial city has become a deserted city. You'd better stay away!"
Mo Chen rolled his eyes. "What does it matter to me if it becomes a deserted city?"
"Oh dear, this once prosperous imperial city has been ravaged by murder, and you still dare to say such careless things!" The old man suddenly became anxious. "I once advised a young man who didn't believe me, just like you, and he was killed by the female demon while walking at night! You'd better be careful, or you'll be gone as soon as it gets dark!"
Mo Chen rolled his eyes and said irritably, "It's still a long way from dark! If you're scared, go find an inn to rest first. I don't need you to come with me!"
"Hey! What are you saying! Do you think I, An Qianshan, am a coward who clings to life? I only reminded you because you look kind, and now you're disgusted with me instead!"
Mo Chen stopped in his tracks, abruptly turning around to look at the somewhat eccentric and disheveled old man behind him. "Who do you say you are?!"
An Qianshan was startled. Seeing the fierce look in Mo Chen's eyes, she immediately wilted. "I, I'm not, I don't know An Qianshan, I, I am me... Please don't kill me, please don't kill me!"
An Qianshan was so frightened that he turned and ran away. Mo Chen was slightly stunned. His speed was unprecedented and unparalleled.
