In fact, Jun Mo didn’t know what Shen ShuiYan wanted, nor what Xie QianLan had.
But after calming down, he discovered that there were a lot of problems regarding them.
In that secret realm, he met Shen ShuiYan and Xie QianLan successively, which was enough to indicate that these two were looking for something.
Xie QianLan was fearless and even in the mood to return to the WanXiang Palace, presumably he has a clue to what he was looking for or even has already gotten it.
That’s why Jun Mo contacted Shen ShuiYan.
Anyway even if Xie QianLan had nothing, he and Shen ShuiYan already had a long-standing grievance and a few words were enough to provoke discord between them.
Jun Mo thought his idea was not bad and soon met with Shen ShuiYan.
The last time the two left each other unhappily and, after seeing each other again, naturally did not show the other person a good face.
Shen ShuiYan was dressed in splendid clothes, with a fair face and a snowy appearance. He had a little cinnabar mole in the center of his eyebrows, like a red plum in full bloom within the cold snow, and was really beautiful to look at.
His appearance, although cold, also makes people want to look at him.
Now look at Jun Mo: he was dressed in plain clothes and his silver hair was loose.
It was really pleasing to see such unique people standing together.
It’s a pity… that they couldn’t even manage the barest smile on their faces.
Shen ShuiYan looked at him: “How do you know?”
Jun Mo was not surprised, and straight to the point: “He took Ling Mu.”
Shen ShuiYan thought for a while then came to an understanding.
“You found the Supreme Pill Recipe Book together with him?”
When Jun Mo heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly and said, “Most likely he found it first and it should be in the WanXiang Palace.”
Shen ShuiYan said, “Are you sure?”
Jun Mo said: “He coaxed Ah-Mu to go by saying that there was a way to get rid of the Body of Heavenly Disaster using some kind of pill in the book. Then he took Ah-Mu back to WanXiang Palace.”
Shen ShuiYan was slightly startled when he heard this but soon recovered.
“When did they leave?”
Jun Mo said, “Yesterday.”
Shen ShuiYan frowned and turned to leave but Jun Mo suddenly said, “Are you going to resurrect Shen Yun?”
Shen ShuiYan stopped.
Jun Mo said: “I can help you produce the alchemical pill.”
Shen ShuiYan turned to look at him: “Your condition?”
Jun Mo’s voice was calm to the point of being strange: “Kill Xie QianLan.”
A smile overflowed from the corner of Shen ShuiYan’s mouth. Intentionally, he slowly climbed to the eyebrows and the ice beauty became a gorgeous flower king peony, and the whole appearance was full of extravagance. He opened his mouth and the joy in it was undisguised: “Deal.”
When Xie QianLan brought Chu MuYun back to the WanXiang Palace, he of course made early preparations.
As for what these early preparations were, Chu MuYun had a good idea.
To make a person despair, the easiest thing is to break his beliefs and faith. Let all the things he has always dedicated himself to, worked hard for and longed for, turn into emptiness. As long as such a strong emotion is overturned, then only a few more measures would be needed to make this person mentally collapse.
Ling Mu seems to be a determined person but actually such a person is in fact more vulnerable in certain respects.
When a person whose emotions are not easily moved falls in love, they will always pay more than those who are easily passionate.
The more you give, the more you ask for.
Ling Mu’s heart was completely tied to Jun Mo. When Jun Mo was still entangled by the Body of Natural Disaster, he never gave up and even tried his best to help him suppress his diabolical physique. Now there already existed within him the doubt that Jun Mo loved another but he was still eager to help him get rid of this constitution completely.
President Chu’s acting skills are nothing to say. With such deep affection and righteousness, how could Xie QianLan not believe in it?
After all… who would have thought that he had dug a pit but the other party actually dug a pit that was even bigger for him and that it was right below him…
The two did not waste time and went straight to the WanXiang Palace after leaving the secret realm.
The maze outside the WanXiang Palace was no joke. As a ‘newcomer’, Chu MuYun naturally acted amazed.
Entering the WanXiang Palace, it was quiet.
When Shen Yun was there and, in order not to let Shen Yun discrepancies, Xie QianLan dismissed all the servants. When Shen Yun died, the entire palace became a forbidden place for Xie QianLan and he would not allow any other people to step foot inside it.
So now that Chu MuYun walked in, he only felt that the emptiness was a little scary.
Shen Yun’s body disappeared beyond heaven and earth but this WanXiang Palace looked like a gorgeous tomb.
It was not Shen Yun who was buried but Xie QianLan.
What Shen Yun’s sacrifice formation rescued was nothing but a walking corpse.
Xie QianLan said to Jun Mo: I have waited for a thousand years and I have waited too long, I no longer want to wait.
But in fact… as long as anyone walked into this palace they would understand.
For Xie QianLan, Shen Yun has long been the only hope of life. If he doesn’t wait, then he is even less than a walking corpse…
Jun Mo didn’t tell Ling Mu that Xie QianLan wanted to pursue him. In fact, it was useless to say it. After seeing scene after scene like this, no one would believe that his man could change his heart.
Seeing his obsession was so deep, Chu MuYun was also genuinely slightly startled.
The feeling of deja vu made his eyes darken and his whole person showed absolute calm and rationality.
Some people would be confused and flustered after being disturbed but Chu MuYun was different.
He will become more and more calm and rational, just like the kind of person who gets more sober the more drunk he gets – others will only think that this kind of person is extremely scary but, in fact, no one can understand his sadness.
Xie QianLan sighed lightly: “I’ll go get the pill book, you can explore at your leisure.”
Chu MuYun paused and finally asked, “Can I go to Jun Mo’s residence to have a look?”
Xie QianLan said casually and lightly, “The yard is right outside, on the left. There is a bamboo forest outside.”
Chu MuYun said, “Okay.”
Xie QianLan added apologetically, “I haven’t been there since Ah-Yun left. If it’s a bit messy, please forgive me.”
“It’s fine, I’m just taking a look at it.”
Xie QianLan said, “I’ll call you when I get the pill.”
Chu MuYun deliberately took a detour to find this bamboo forest in order to continue acting.
Zerobaby was puzzled and asked, “What are you doing here?”
Chu MuYun sighed softly, “Xie QianLan prepared everything so carefully. Wouldn’t it be a disappointment if I didn’t join in on his act?”
Zero: Confused
If he doesn’t take the initiative, Xie QianLan will also lead him around in a circle.
Rather than being so troublesome, he might as well take the initiative to go there.
For thousands of years, the buildings here are all rare materials and they will inevitably be a bit shabby, far less bright and beautiful than in the past.
Chu MuYun didn’t show the appearance of any memories and just looked around with curious eyes.
This feeling is very easy to act out. It is nothing more than “walking into the hometown of my lover and imagining how he lived as a youth…”
Chu MuYun walked through the bamboo forest and entered the courtyard, feeling very emotional. Yes, there was always a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth.
All the way until he walked to Jun Mo’s bedroom with curiosity and opened the door. Then he stopped, completely stunned.
Portraits… all portraits of one person…
It is not so much to say that it was pushing open a door, it is better to say that it was a direct glimpse into the heart of the owner of the room.
