Chapter 290: Quarrel But then, she suddenly came to her senses and gritted her teeth...
But then, she suddenly came back to her senses and said through gritted teeth, "Wei Mubai, you actually used your beauty to lure me!"
What was going on? How could this exiled immortal, the aloof and aloof Second Young Master Wei, resort to such tactics?
So is what he said true?
Xu Hui's heart was in a state of panic. She suddenly reached out and twisted the soft flesh around the man's waist. "Explain to me clearly, why do you have to do this?!"
She was also stupid. How could she be easily diverted by Wei Mubai?
Does his evasiveness mean that things are really bad?
When she thought about the person in front of her disappearing completely from her world, Xu Hui felt dizzy and had difficulty breathing. Despair hit her brain, making her unable to see clearly.
"Cough, cough," when she was panicking, Wei Mubai actually laughed out loud, his voice clear and joyful.
Meeting Xu Hui's angry gaze, he coughed twice, pretending it wasn't him. "Hey, don't be angry, I was just holding out a trump card. Curses can sometimes be just as effective as blessings. It all depends on how you use them."
Xu Hui stared at him without saying a word, insisting on an answer.
She also saw that Wei Mubai was truly relaxed at this moment and was not pretending to be calm.
Even through the connection between the two of them, she could feel the other person's happy mood.
But she didn't dare to believe it easily. If she hadn't said it, Wei Mubai would have been as scheming as Wei Muheng. If he wanted to control his mood, it was not impossible for him to do so.
He is so strong inside that he doesn't care about life and death at all, so when he feels the need to show happiness, he can really make himself happy both physically and mentally.
Xu Hui's devotion, reluctance to let go, and lingering worries already made him happy, and it was even easier for him to amplify these emotions and let Xu Hui feel them.
So sometimes, Xu Hui also felt that the Heavenly Dao Contract was not accurate, and that people like Wei Mubai could take advantage of it.
But Xu Hui believed that Wei Mubai's feelings for her were sincere and he would not deliberately deceive her.
But when it comes to life and death, she couldn't help but want to hide it from Wei Mubai, as she didn't want him to get into trouble with her.
Wei Mubai is probably the same.
So, how real and how fake is the ease he appears at this moment?
Xu Hui's expression of doubt and uncertainty explained everything. Wei Mubai tapped her nose and said, "You, you! You are always so sharp even when you shouldn't be."
Xu Hui gritted her teeth and warned word by word, "Wei Mubai!"
"Here you go," Wei Mubai chuckled, "Why are you so stubborn? This is a jade slip passed down from ancient times. You will believe it after reading it."
Xu Hui looked at him suspiciously, and probed into the jade slip with his spiritual sense, which actually contained a spiritual message of the head of the Wei family and his wife.
The two of them looked calm and relaxed, their tone of voice unhurried. "Ah Hui, Mu Bai said, 'Taoist Master Qingchenzi has calculated that you two are in a life-or-death situation on this journey, but there is a glimmer of hope. He wants to risk his life and survive, so he uses the curse as his last trump card. To be honest, my husband and I don't agree with this method. It's too dangerous, and it puts all our hopes on you, which is too difficult for you. Mu Bai is my son, but Mu Heng is sleeping to recover from his injuries, and we can't find a better way. If the worst comes to the worst, everything is up to you. But don't worry, my husband and I, along with Mu Heng and Mu Yan, will help you, so don't put too much pressure on yourself, just go with the flow. Since the Taoist master has calculated a glimmer of hope, then this hope will definitely come true for you. My husband and I believe in you!'"
After reading it, Xu Hui was stunned.
"Do you believe it now?" Wei Mubai asked slowly.
Xu Hui hesitated for a moment and said, "Believe it!"
Wei Mubai is the biological son of the Wei family head and his wife. If he really had no hope of survival, they would not be so calm and even specially recorded such a message to comfort her. It’s good that they don’t blame her.
After all, Wei Mubai entered this dangerous place just to save her.
"So, at most I'll just suffer a little," Wei Mubai concluded, holding her hand and whispering, "Are you relieved now?"
What are you reassured about?
Xu Hui lowered her eyebrows. This was not just suffering, it was clearly heart-wrenching, soul-shattering, and she had to suffer from the torment of being eaten by evil spirits every day. She was in excruciating pain!
Xu Hui's eyes darkened and she made up her mind that no matter what, no matter what the cost, she would not let Wei Mubai go to this point!
She raised her head and whispered, "Since the curse is your trump card, what is your plan?"
Wei Mubai's expression was calm, and his tone was normal. "Use the seven clones to clear the way for us to get out of the burial ground. Then we can replenish our souls. Once the repairs are complete, we can advance to the Out-of-Body Stage again."
"Materials for replenishing the soul?" Xu Hui knew that this method existed, but had never come across it, so she wanted to ask for clarification.
Wei Mubai took out a jade slip and handed it to her, and at the same time took out a storage ring filled with supplies, "All your previous things are left on your body, now use these."
Xu Hui swept her spiritual sense across the ring and found that it was full of all kinds of things.
From elixirs to magic tools to talismans, spirit stones and so on, there is everything, which is no less than her collection.
She has several top-grade spiritual swords, which are only slightly inferior to her Wanxiang Sword.
She was surprised, "Why did you bring so much?" Could it be that he exchanged all his points and emptied half of the Wei family's treasure house?
"So I am not acting impulsively. With these things, if I still can't get out safely, I can only say that it is fate. Then we will temporarily obey fate, and then seize a glimmer of hope to change our destiny!" Wei Mubai emphasized seriously.
Xu Hui thought about it and realized that although Taoist Master Guzhenzi had calculated the ending, no one knew what would happen until the last moment.
She shouldn't be so panicked. At most, they could just be a pair of mandarin ducks with the same fate.
Xu Hui stopped saying discouraging words and sank her consciousness into the jade slip, carefully memorizing the key points of the soul-replenishing technique and the various natural treasures needed.
This soul-replenishing technique is not only difficult, but the materials required are also rare in the world, but it is indeed not impossible to find.
She breathed a sigh of relief and asked the system, "Do you have these materials?"
[Ding, the host's authority has not been unlocked yet, please advance carefully! ]
"Just give me a promise, and I will try very hard," Xu Hui pleaded seriously.
The system can take out treasures such as the World Transformation Stone, the Innate Mysterious Stone, the Feathered Green Gold, the Soul Jade, etc. I think these are also available.
[Ding, host, please practice hard, everything is possible! ]
Upon hearing this, Xu Hui breathed a sigh of relief. This meant that the system really existed and she no longer needed to worry about the materials.
If Wei Mubai really reaches the point where he needs to replenish his soul, she can also be Wei Mubai's guarantee instead of being helpless.
She showed a sense of relief on her face, paused, and changed the subject, "So, are you a clone or your real body now?"
Putting aside the issue of life and death, Xu Hui really didn't know how to face the person who split her into eight pieces.
The thought of eight Wei Mubais circling around me was too beautiful to even imagine!
Xu Hui shuddered and couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth. What the hell!
Wei Mubai paused and suddenly became unhappy. The thought of someone snatching Xu Hui from him was particularly irritating.
Even though that was himself, he couldn't help but frown.
No one knows how possessive Wei Mubai is beneath his gentle and handsome appearance.
Even if they are all mine, how can those victims who have been divided away be worthy of competing with me for people?
He frowned and said in a bad tone, "Don't pay attention to them!"
Xu Hui understood, so this was the real body, "Okay, let's solve the current problem first."
As she spoke, she pulled the hand that was around her waist away, and under Wei Mubai's stunned gaze, she said with a forced smile, "I always feel very awkward. I feel like I cheated on my fiancé and backstabbed him."
"No, no..." Wei Mubai explained anxiously.
Xu Hui smiled, "You know how strong my sense of morality is. I would be ashamed in front of eight fiancés. That would be too weird. So, for now, it's better not to touch me. Let's keep our distance and wait until you recover."
Oh, did you really think she was convinced so easily?
There is no other way. Wei Mubai has been divided into eight parts. Apart from finding a way to solve the problem, can she push him back?
But she was still very angry. Wei Mubai always did things without considering the consequences. She had to teach him a lesson and let him know that she, Xu Hui, also had a temper and would not always listen to his arrangements.
It's great that she has a high IQ! But can you just assign her tasks to someone else without even asking?
Oh, wait for her!
Wei Mubai was shocked and quickly reached out to pull her, "Ah Hui."
Xu Hui shook it off, saying in a neither light nor heavy tone, "You have to give me some time to adapt, right?"
Wei Mubai's heart skipped a beat, knowing that he had really annoyed Xu Hui. For a moment he was at a loss and felt a little curious.
This was the first time Xu Hui got angry with him.
She is always obedient, sensible, gentle and emotionally stable, and rarely threatens people with a half-smile.
But Wei Mubai felt that she was particularly cute at this moment, and he couldn't help but soften his heart again and again, and lowered his tone with a bit of coquettishness, "I was wrong, I will definitely discuss it with you in advance next time, please forgive me this time, okay?"
Xu Hui was surprised that Wei Mubai could act like a spoiled child. She looked at him carefully. There was a kind of deliberate compromising gentleness on his face, but his eyes were full of smiles.
She knew that Wei Mubai had seen through her little thoughts and was deliberately cooperating with her. She could not help but snort coldly and turned her back, "Not good!"
"Then, will you punish me?" Wei Mubai lowered his tone again, his clear voice carrying a hint of hoarseness and a hint of temptation, like a succubus who was trying to lure Xu Hui into taking the bait while pretending to be reserved.
Xu Hui's heart trembled, and she couldn't help but frown. He did it on purpose!
Knowing that she couldn't resist the temptation, he deliberately acted like this to soften her heart.
But Xu Hui had principles. She pushed away his handsome face and said, "Stand away, or I'll feel guilty!"
Wei Mubai:......
It seems that he is really angry. How can I comfort him?
This was the first time he had experienced such distress, and it was quite novel!
However, there was a flash of sadness in his eyes. He had to coax her before he died, otherwise he would regret it!
