The other guards remained unmoved, their spears pressed straight against his throat.
Qiao Dongzi approached him and said, "Tell me, who are you, and what is your purpose?"
Xiaosong turned his face toward Murun, who was being protected, and suddenly a trickle of black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He had committed suicide by biting into poison.
Qiao Dongzi frowned; he had been careless. Then he pulled a dagger from his sleeve and slashed at the man's forehead, watching as a human skin mask peeled off.
A stranger's face was revealed.
"They came for me." Mu Run could feel the venomous hatred in the man's last glance at her. "But, I've been lying here for years, have I offended anyone?"
Qiao Dongzi glanced at Mu Run discreetly, not daring to say anything... "Of course I didn't offend you because you're kind-hearted, but the boss has helped me a lot!"
...
Fu Yunchen once lived in Death Valley for a period of time.
Here he found Mu Run and Tuan Tuan Huan Huan. And now, he also learned that his youngest son had always been there and had not been replaced by the Corpse King.
"Although this place is called Death Valley, it's quite the opposite for me; it's a blessed place." He always gets the answer when he doesn't know what to do.
Before this, he didn't know that Zhuangzhuang was his son or the Corpse King, so his attitude towards him was sometimes close and sometimes distant. Because of his attitude, Zhuangzhuang also became humble and timid. Now, thinking back, he feels ashamed and remorseful.
"How do we remove the Corpse King's soul from his body?" Fu Yunchen asked Cha Bao.
Cha Bao raised her hind leg and scratched her round, cute ears.
"..." Looking at its movements, Fu Yunchen found it hard to equate it with a mountain god.
“It’s not that it can’t be removed, but they are born together, and over the years, a small part of Zhuangzhuang’s soul has merged with the Corpse King’s. Removing the Corpse King will inevitably harm your son. For example, he may lose his previous memories, or he may become an idiot.”
Looking at Zhuangzhuang, whose eyes were pure and innocent, Fu Yunchen said truthfully, "There is a bad presence inside you. If you remove it, you may get hurt."
Zhuangzhuang nodded obediently, "It's okay."
Fu Yunchen patted his round head, feeling even more guilty. "You might lose your memory and forget everything from before."
To be honest, he wished he could forget. He had treated him terribly in the past, and he didn't have any good memories of him.
His being merged with the Corpse King might also be related to his attitude. When a person is sad and vulnerable, they are most susceptible to being invaded by evil spirits.
Zhuangzhuang looked at Fu Yunchen and asked, "Will Father dislike Zhuangzhuang?"
Fu Yunchen felt both heartbroken and distressed. "On the contrary, I will treat you even better, just as I treated Huanhuan and Tuantuan."
Zhuangzhuang's eyes instantly brightened with anticipation. "Zhuangzhuang will listen to Father."
Fu Yunchen, "Good boy/girl."
Looking at the obedient Zhuangzhuang, Cha Bao said, "There is another way, which is to seal her."
“There are times when even a seal can't hold back the flames. It’s better to nip it in the bud and eliminate any future troubles.” Fu Yunchen preferred to get rid of the Corpse King.
Cha Bao circled Zhuang Zhuang twice. "It's not impossible. He's still young, and you're his father, so you have the right to make this decision. Of course, it would be even better if Run Run agreed."
"Her?" Fu Yunchen asked.
“Dad might not be my biological father, but Mom is definitely my biological mother,” Cha Bao suddenly said.
Fu Yunchen: "..."
Tea Treasure: "Don't overthink it. Runrun isn't that kind of lewd woman."
If looks could kill a tea connoisseur, it would already be the filling for a steamed bun.
