Mang Wei sensed something and was summoned to Bai Ren. Seeing the man who had caused her to be trapped in the snake coffin, she was filled with rage.
However, she was no longer the same as before. Suppressing her anger, Mang Wei bowed to Bai Ren with a gloomy expression, "Why did the Immortal Lord summon me here?"
"Please take good care of her for me; she is the reincarnation of Niao Niao."
Mang Wei glanced at the person in Bai Ren's arms. If it wasn't Feng Dan, then who was it?
Her pupils were slightly open, and a complex mix of emotions flashed in her beautiful, autumn-water-like eyes.
It's true that she and Mo Ye were engaged. They had spent a lot of time together and were childhood sweethearts, so they naturally had feelings for each other, but it wasn't romantic love.
The person she truly loved was someone else.
This person has an extraordinary relationship with Mo Ye; he is gentle and refined, with an otherworldly air.
Thanks to Mo Ye, she had the opportunity to get closer to him, but the more she learned about him, the more attracted Mang Wei became to him.
Even knowing that he might have someone he likes, Mang Wei still couldn't control her feelings for him.
Mang Wei wanted to know what kind of girl a person with a warm exterior but a cold interior would like, so she became friends with the person he cared about.
Niao Niao was truly a beautiful and kind girl.
Mang Wei knew that there was absolutely no possibility between her and that person, because she also liked Niao Niao very much.
But liking someone is liking someone, and like a cough, it's impossible to control.
She liked Niao Niao, but she also liked that person.
A man's infatuation can be explained. A woman's infatuation, however, cannot! ①
It wasn't until Mang Wei was sealed into a stone coffin by her beloved that she finally saw through this cold-hearted man, and her once-fluttering heart died along with him.
After a moment of silence, Mang Wei said, "There are many who are willing to go through fire and water for the Immortal Lord, so why does the Immortal Lord need to seek me out?"
"Niao Niao doesn't have many friends, Little Stone is one, and you are another. I feel at ease entrusting my affairs to you."
Seeing that Mang Wei did not answer, Bai Ren's face flashed with anxiety.
He gritted his teeth and pushed Niao Niao directly into Mang Wei's arms.
Mang Wei frowned, supporting Niao Niao's waist with both hands, ultimately preventing Niao Niao from collapsing to the ground.
Bai Ren breathed a slight sigh of relief, but his brows remained furrowed.
He quickly formed hand seals, and a complex mark swept across the air, as if time and space had frozen.
Mang Wei's pupils dilated slightly, and her heart inexplicably raced.
After a breath, a golden pill flew out from between Bai Ren's forehead.
Under the golden light of the pill, Bai Ren's pale face turned a waxy yellow.
The Golden Core is the culmination of a cultivator's entire life's cultivation.
Mang Wei frowned, glanced down at Feng Dan in her arms, and guessed that Bai Ren was going to transfer his life's cultivation to Niao Niao.
She couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly, thinking to herself: What does it matter if someone is outwardly warm but inwardly cold, or ruthless and heartless? In front of the woman she loves, she can give up everything.
Whether they love each other or not is so obvious!
Mang Wei caught a glimpse of the golden core flying towards her out of the corner of her eye and closed her eyes.
She was willing to accept this reality, but didn't want to witness it with her own eyes.
The moment she closed her eyes, the golden pill did not change direction and flew towards the phoenix pill.
Its target was Mang Wei from beginning to end, and with a "whoosh," it burrowed into Mang Wei's forehead.
She shuddered, opened her eyes abruptly, looked at Bai Ren with confusion, and asked, "Are you blind too? You gave it to the wrong person."
Bai Ren shook his head, looking relaxed and relieved. He raised his head slightly and smiled:
"I didn't give it to the wrong person, it's for you. Consider it my compensation to you, and also payment for taking care of Niao Niao."
Upon hearing this, Mang Wei cursed, "Are you out of your mind?! Take it away! I don't want it!"
Bai Ren opened his mouth, his face full of shock, never expecting Mang Wei to despise his cultivation level so much.
The key question is, now that I've given away my cultivation, how can I get it back?
No, he did consider taking it back, but not now!
Is this another missed test?
As the atmosphere between the two became extremely awkward, Feng Dan, who was in Mang Wei's arms, frowned and let out a soft moan, as if she was about to wake up.
