Chapter 78 Chapter 78 What system are you using?
"Jiang Caiyu, what are you doing?"
"Master Jiang, how come even you have gone mad now?"
"Is there something wrong with the feng shui of your Yu Jian Sect? I'm convinced."
"Master Jiang, are you doing this to your Sect Leader You?"
Amidst the voices of condemnation, Mu Jiulin's eyes changed slightly. He hated that he was not Jiang Caiyu, and hated that he could not give up everything like Jiang Caiyu and just stand by Ye Nanque.
But he soon calmed down again: "If my brother is awake, he'll blame me if I don't stop him. He won't be happy if you indulge him. In fact, you've never truly understood him."
Ye Nanque didn't give them much time to chat. He absorbed the fear of the crowd and became more and more excited. The concentration of demonic energy around him became higher and higher and overflowed outward, as if he would not be able to bear it if he didn't vent it out.
Those with lower cultivation levels had been shaken away dozens of meters. Only Jiang Caiyu, Mu Jiulin, Luo Heng Zhenren and others could remain in the formation, but they did not dare to get close to Ye Nanque.
The moon in the sky grew redder and redder, and the boulder's face became increasingly similar to Ye Nanque's, almost identical. Mu Jiulin knew that Ye Nanque had almost completely...transformed into a demon.
If Ye Nanque had only become a demon cultivator before, now he was on the verge of complete degeneration into a demon. Degraded demons differed from those born naturally. Mu Jiulin had read many books that described fallen demons as more destructive, difficult to control, and lacking in rationality. Fallen demons had only appeared in legends. If the Sorrow Stone was fully absorbed, Ye Nanque would be the first to appear.
He would not let Ye Nanque become such a monster.
Many vines sprang out from the ground and quickly bound Ye Nanque's hands and feet, but were then shattered by him. These vines continued to come one after another, slowing down Ye Nanque's speed to some extent.
Zhenren Luo Heng saw Mu Jiulin's intention and used a magic weapon to summon a swarm of butterflies. Although it did not cause any harm to Ye Nanque, it was enough to disturb him and make him upset.
Just as Ye Nanque was rioting, Mu Jiulin had already approached very close. Unlike other cultivators, due to his physique, Mu Jiulin would not be harmed by the evil energy surrounding Ye Nanque. By the time Ye Nanque reacted, his hand had already grabbed Ye Nanque's wrist.
Ye Nanque tried to put some distance between the two of them, but discovered something strange.
He and the monk in front of him were connected by a strange kind of poisonous thread. The thread went through the palm of the man's hand and into his skin and flesh, looking extremely weird.
Ye Nanque finally responded, tilted his head and asked, "Are you an evil cultivator?"
Mu Jiulin smiled faintly and said, "I am not an evil cultivator. How come you can't even remember this, Senior Brother? It doesn't matter, Senior Brother, you will remember it soon."
Ye Nanque felt a little strange, a feeling of powerlessness instantly gripping his heart. Those Gu threads seemed alive. They... they were stealing his strength.
The person before me... the person before me... the Gu silk is growing... the person before me... Mu Jiulin...
It's Mu Jiulin? !
"Mu Jiulin, what are you doing!" Ye Nanque shouted, but his eyes slowly became clear.
Mu Jiulin smiled and said, "Brother? Are you awake? They want to turn you into a vessel filled with demonic energy, but I can also be your vessel."
Ye Nanque took a few seconds to react to the current situation. He looked at Mu Jiulin, his face so close that it almost made his heart ache. "The power of the Sorrow Stone is not something you can bear. Are you going to become a demon too?"
Mu Jiulin said almost naively, "Brother, if you can be a demon, I can be a demon too. Brother, have you forgotten that I am originally half demon? Demons and demons are of the same origin. Besides, what's wrong with being a demon? If I become a demon, I won't have to be corrupted by the "evil taste". Let's be a pair of great demons that the world scorns."
At this moment, when the plot was so tense, Ye Nanque shouldn't have laughed, but for some reason, Mu Jiulin made him laugh mischievously: "If you're a demon, you can't be a hero."
Mu Jiulin: "Then don't be a hero."
Ye Nanque paused, then added, "But... I can't bear to see you stop being a hero. Ah Lin, have you thought of a way to prevent us from losing control?"
Mu Jiulin's throat moved, but he didn't speak quickly because he couldn't bear it.
He leaned his head over and looked down at Ye Nanque. It was actually just a very brief glance, but it felt like a long time to both of them.
"I don't think Brother will blame me," Mu Jiulin's eyes grew redder, not knowing if it was because of the demonic energy or because he...was about to cry again. "If Brother completely turns to the devil, I'm afraid he won't be able to control himself. So, I have to seal you before you completely lose your mind. Brother now has immense power, so finding a magic weapon to seal you won't be easy. But it doesn't matter. Gu Si can share Brother's power with me, so I...should be the one to make the magic weapon to seal Brother."
Ye Nanque opened his mouth. He didn't expect Mu Jiulin to come up with such a method. He said that he was going to seal him, but in fact, this method was to seal both of them together.
Surprise was fleeting, replaced by a helpless yet doting expression: "You want to... use yourself to seal me? That's crazy, I knew... Junior Brother Mu, you're always going to be a hero. Never mind, it's up to you. You know I've made things difficult for you many times before, and I won't do it again this time. But you, kid... you don't have to get yourself involved. You're doing this on purpose... You just... want to be with me."
Mu Jiulin's expression turned serious. He looked at Ye Nanque's eyebrows and eyes, as if he wanted to remember it firmly: "Senior brother is right. I can't leave you. I want to accompany you. No matter where we are, I want to be with you."
"That's disgusting," Ye Nanque laughed. "Never mind. In that case, I have something to tell you. Senior Yan said before that I like you 70% in my heart, but I only show 30%. She's wrong."
Ye Nanque stared at Mu Jiulin's eyes, which were now purple and red like gemstones, and said firmly, "It's ten points. I always feel ten points in my heart. It has never, never changed. Really."
As soon as he said that, he felt dizzy again. Ye Nanque's hand on Mu Jiulin's sleeve suddenly tightened: "Mu Jiulin, you have to move faster."
At the same time, Ye Nanque called the system: [Tong, what's going on? You have to explain it to me! You can't let Mu Jiulin and I be sealed like this without knowing what's going on. Tong, say something! Tong!]
System: [You talk too much.]
Ye Nanque: [If I don't say anything at this point, I'll be a complete idiot! Tell me, tell me you've prepared a cheat code for me, tell me now, so I can rest assured!]
System: [Have you ever heard of plot-killing?]
Ye Nanque: [Huh?]
System: [You are a villain. No matter what, you are a villain. It is impossible to redeem yourself. This is plot-driven.]
Ye Nanque: […So this is the reason for this inexplicable plot?]
System: [Yes, in the plot, he's the good guy, and you're the bad guy. This is a fixed fact, unchangeable in the eyes of the world. Some of your previous actions were simply self-whitewashing, which the plot cannot tolerate. You must end up as a bad guy, understand?]
Ye Nanque nodded stupidly: [I seem to understand, but I don’t quite understand. Please continue.]
System: […Actually, I’ve already finished.]
Ye Nanque: [Why don't you tell me how to solve this? Can you give me a cheat code or something?]
System: [What? What did you say?]
Ye Nanque: [Golden Finger! Golden Finger!]
System: [What? Never heard of that.]
Ye Nanque: […I want to fight you…]
"Brother," Mu Jiulin said, "It won't hurt too much."
Ye Nanque came to her senses and realized she was practically in Mu Jiulin's arms. Strands of Gu silk emerged from Mu Jiulin's body, enveloping the two of them, isolating them from the rest of the world and wrapping them up like a giant cocoon. It felt like a world just for the two of them.
Ye Nanque heard Mu Jiulin say to him, "The Mirror Lake at the extreme end of the Bitter Sea is the place I chose for us to be sealed. It's the quietest place there, and I think Brother will like it too."
Oh, how could he forget that Mu Jiulin was at least half a Shura Sect disciple, able to enter and exit the Bitter Sea Extreme Realm. This kid must have made plans when he was preparing to seal the two of them.
Ye Nanque swallowed and said, "Okay, is that a freshwater lake? I don't want a sealed place that's too salty."
Mu Jiulin smiled and said, "Senior brother is always very humorous."
Ye Nanque, who was quite humorous, even managed to break off the focus and argue with the system: [Are you serious? System? Stop joking around at this point.]
System: [I don't like joking.]
Ye Nanque felt that he really had no other options...
As the world turned upside down, he seemed to hear Jiang Caiyu shouting, "Mu Jiulin, what are you going to do?"
He had rarely heard Jiang Caiyu's voice so emotionally exposed.
But...it doesn't matter...
It became very quiet outside the cocoon, with only the sound of flowing water. He and Mu Jiulin's bodies fell together, but not quickly. The gentle water flow wrapped them up.
Mu Jiulin's forehead was pressed against his, emitting a soft glow, and Ye Nanque felt extremely sleepy.
"Junior Brother Mu, I... I really want to sleep..."
[Tong, I'll give you one last chance... I'm really about to fall asleep...]
"Then let's go to sleep." Mu Jiulin said, "Senior Brother and I will go together."
Damn, the system actually didn’t say anything.
But think about it, this world is also his extra luck, and meeting Mu Jiulin is also... his extra luck.
Not bad.
No, it’s a big profit.
Ye Nanque tried hard to keep his eyes open, but he fought against sleepiness and kept looking at Mu Jiulin's lips.
Mu Jiulin's forehead left his, but soon his lips gently kissed the corner of his eyes, lightly, like a cotton ball.
"Sweet dreams."
[Ding — Tags highlighted: One Specific Love, Die Together, Danmei — Reader Satisfaction: Hiss — Why is this garbled? Is this correct…]
What the hell is this about dying together?! Is he and Mu Jiulin dying together? No, what is Danmei?
Ye Nanque: [Tong, you're finally online. I knew you wouldn't ignore me.]
System: [Wait a moment, I'll download an installation package and update it.]
Ye Nanque: [Why do you always update at critical moments? What system do you use?!]
