"Thank you for earlier," Kui Kui said, releasing Mo Ye.
Mo Ye looked at his empty sleeves and felt a little empty inside.
He smiled and said, "There's no need for thanks between us."
Mo Ye's smile is truly beautiful, possessing a unique and exquisite beauty, like a snow lotus blooming alone in the world.
Unfortunately, before he could properly showcase his charm, Wuwei Daoren arrived with Mao Junjie and Kui Ziyu.
Wuwei Daoren stepped forward and bowed to Mo Ye. Kui Ziyu found an opening and stood between Mo Ye and Kui Kui.
He took Kui Kui's hands and examined him carefully from head to toe.
"Dad, I'm fine. Now that you, Uncle, and Grandmaster are all here, I'll leave the rest of this to you. I'm a little tired, so I'll go back and rest first."
Kui Kui's emotions have been fluctuating wildly, leaving her with a chaotic mind, and she wants to calm down.
"Kui Kui, why don't you come to my room and rest first!" Although Wu Youyou didn't know what had happened, she felt sorry for Kui Kui because she saw that she looked exhausted. She half-supported and half-dragged her into the room.
As Wu Youyou closed the door, Kui Kui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Why don't you take a nap first?" Wu Youyou said while making the bed.
"I can't sleep, Youyou, can you talk to me?"
"Okay!" Wu Youyou's gossipy soul was awakened. She had a bellyful of questions, so she didn't even bother to make the bed and just shoved the blanket into the bed.
The blanket slammed against the wall and rolled down pitifully, where Wu Youyou sat on it with a thud.
Before Wu Youyou could decide what to ask first, Kui Kui started talking to himself.
Speaking of Zanling, speaking of childhood, speaking of Moye.
Wu Youyou stared wide-eyed at Kui Kui in disbelief.
At this moment, Kui Kui was nowhere near her usual aloof self; she was now a young girl trapped by love in the mundane world.
“I know he did nothing wrong, and I know my anger is inexplicable, but I feel so choked up.” Kui Kui said, pounding her chest.
Wu Youyou took her hand and said softly, "Kui Kui, let me ask you a question. What do you consider Mo Ye to be?"
Kui Kui thought for a moment and said, "Benefactor."
"More than that!" Although Wu Youyou had never been in a relationship, she was well-versed in theories. She tentatively asked in a low voice, "Do you like Mo Ye?"
"I like Mo Ye?" Kui Kui repeated blankly.
Wu Youyou laughed even more happily.
"Yeah! If you didn't like him, why would you feel so upset?"
"Because you like something, you have expectations. Disappointment only comes when expectations don't match your predictions!"
Looking at Kui Kui's bewildered expression, Wu Youyou continued, "To put it simply, it means you care about him, and you want to be special to him."
Kui Kui nodded silently, realizing that awkwardness was actually a sign of liking someone.
Wu Youyou was startled when Kui Kui suddenly stood up.
"Aoi, what are you doing?"
"I'm going to ask him what he's thinking!"
"Huh?" Before Wu Youyou could react, Kui Kui had already rushed out.
Watching Kui Kui's disappearing figure, she murmured to herself, "As expected of Kui Kui!"
As Kui Kui stepped out of the room, he saw Mo Ye standing in the courtyard, opposite him a man in a silver robe, his long hair tied up with a jade crown.
The two people, one in black and one in white, formed a striking contrast.
The man had a beard and an ordinary appearance, but he possessed an imposing aura that commanded respect without anger.
He clenched one fist in front of his abdomen and placed the other behind his back, saying calmly, "My sworn brother is still the same as ever, while I have aged considerably."
Mo Ye's face was cold: "What, do you want me to praise you as an old geezer?"
"Why provoke me? You can't beat me now. You just came out of the coffin and opened the coffin for the young lady of the Mang family. Your strength has not yet recovered to its peak."
"You need to be at your peak to beat me? Are you overestimating yourself, or underestimating me?"
Mo Ye's long hair billowed up, and his aura suddenly surged.
The Immortal Emperor simply watched quietly, and then...
"Pfft!" Mo Ye suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his already pale face becoming even more bloodless.
The Immortal Emperor smiled. In terms of strength, he was no match for Mo Ye, but he was the smartest person in the world, and he always calculated everything without missing a single detail.
After ascending to the position of Immortal Emperor, he was closer to the Heavenly Dao. Although the Heavenly Dao would not be of his use, the rules could.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have come in person.
"Mo Ye!" Kui Kui strode forward and caught the swaying Mo Ye.
Mo Ye instinctively tucked Kui Kui behind his back, but it was too late.
The Celestial Emperor had already seen Kui Kui. His pupils widened slightly, and he exclaimed in shock, "Little Stone, how could you be here? You have long since perished, how could you possibly be reincarnated!"
He was always meticulous in his calculations, but now this major oversight was standing right in front of him, undoubtedly a slap in the face.
