Jin Kun replied in a profound and unfathomable manner, "It depends on fate."
With a wave of his hand, a beam of light flew towards 'Zhuangzhuang', who was trying to escape.
Zhuangzhuang's voice also changed, staring at Jin Kun with a sinister and ruthless expression.
Jin Kun made hand seals with incredible speed; at least in Mu Run's eyes, she couldn't see his movements clearly.
With a swift leap, Cha Bao blocked all of Zhuang Zhuang's escape routes, trapping him firmly.
A cage bearing sealing runes descended from the sky, attempting to trap 'Zhuangzhuang'.
'Zhuangzhuang' exuded a dense aura of death as it stared at the cage.
Mu Run looked at the unfamiliar 'Zhuangzhuang' and her heart was in her throat. She leaned against Fu Yunchen's chest and held his clothes tightly.
"Is he really alright?"
"Won't."
A black flame appeared in Zhuangzhuang's palm, growing larger and larger, emanating a chilling aura.
Jin Kun glanced disdainfully at the black flames, and his movements gradually slowed down. Although he slowed down, the golden cage emitted an even brighter golden light with each movement, making it even more terrifying than the black flames.
Suddenly, Zhuangzhuang spat out a mouthful of blood onto the black flames, and her little face turned as white as paper.
Looking at his face, Mu Run felt a sharp pain in her heart. "Wei Chengzhang! If you come out now, I can still plead with the mountain god for you."
'Zhuangzhuang' didn't look at her, but answered her question, "They killed me, but it's possible for me to become an immortal. How could they let go of such a good opportunity?"
Fu Yunchen suddenly remembered that when he was reincarnated, he had specially come to perform the father-son ceremony for him.
"Why does it have to be my child?"
Zhuangzhuang then looked over, ignoring Mu Run and meeting Fu Yunchen's eyes. "Perhaps you were too young to remember, but when you were four years old, you saved a destitute little beggar."
Fu Yunchen frowned, recalling his childhood memories… He didn’t quite remember being four years old. But he vaguely remembered that he had saved a destitute little beggar. At the time, he and his mother were traveling when they saw a little beggar huddled in a pile of garbage, searching for something to eat.
He had his mother stop the carriage and gave the beggar the bundle of food and some loose silver.
Because they left quickly, I didn't think much of it afterward.
"You are... that beggar from the garbage dump?"
“Yes.” Zhuangzhuang replied, “The imperial heirs are only glamorous in public, but behind the scenes they are full of murderous intent.”
After saying that, 'Zhuangzhuang' suddenly gave a bitter smile, put away the Netherfire, and stopped resisting the sealing golden cage, letting it envelop him.
Mu Run listened to Zhuang Zhuang's words and looked up at Fu Yunchen.
Fu Yunchen's eyes remained fixed on 'Zhuangzhuang,' and he suddenly recalled clearly what Wei Chengzhang had said back then—"This kindness will surely be repaid with gratitude. If I cannot repay it in this life, I will repay it in the next life as a cow or a horse."
'Zhuangzhuang' allowed the golden cage to bind him, and it gradually contracted and disappeared into his body.
A moment later, the golden cage that was sealed came out of his body again, containing a pitch-black soul whose shape was indistinguishable.
After the sealing golden cage left, Zhuangzhuang's body slumped softly backward...
Cha Bao was right there and caught him with a flick of its tail.
Mu Run rushed over, picked Zhuang Zhuang up from Cha Bao's tail, checked his breathing, and after confirming that he was alright, leaned against Cha Bao and breathed a sigh of relief.
