A strange feeling; after an unknown amount of time, Liu Lanyan finally became aware of her own existence.
My eyes were blinking, and my head was still buzzing, but the tearing pain was gone.
Letting out a long breath, Liu Lanyan sighed softly. As expected, using soul power like this was still a bit strenuous.
Not wanting to use his hidden power, he could only grit his teeth and bear it. Fortunately, nothing serious happened.
I got up, changed out of my clothes which were soaked with cold sweat, and got a dry blanket before finally lying down to rest comfortably.
That's really annoying; that lord's reaction was incredibly quick.
Liu Lanyan smiled gently, "That's fine too."
The fact that His Majesty discovered her whereabouts so quickly means that His Majesty has been keeping an eye on the situation inside the barrier. In other words, there is only one place in the Immortal Realm.
I looked up at the sky; it wasn't dinnertime yet, just the time it would take to take a nap.
After Liu Lanyan regained some of her strength, she got up and went directly to find the Demon God.
After leaving her room, he turned around and entered the Demon God's room, which was quite close to his—next door.
"What's wrong?" Mo Yun looked at Liu Lanyan in surprise. Wasn't she supposed to be taking a nap in her room?
Why did you suddenly rush over to find him?
"The Immortal Realm uses souls to cultivate immortal souls." Liu Lanyan didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "What's most despicable is that they go around capturing souls to feed immortal souls."
Mo Yun frowned: "The Immortal Realm... actually uses such methods. Could it be that Your Excellency has already fallen into the demonic path?"
"Not yet." Liu Lanyan thought for a moment. Through the exchange just now, she did not find any signs of the Venerable One becoming demonic. "He is just acting rather extreme."
Mo Yun nodded: "I will be careful then."
"Huh?" Liu Lanyan looked at the Demon God in surprise. That's it?
She told him that the Immortal Realm was cultivating Immortal Souls, and if the Three Realms were to fight in the future, it would cause great harm to the Demon Realm. Didn't he think of a way to deal with it?
Just say he'll be careful then and that's it?
Isn't that too hasty?
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Mo Yun smiled, reached out and pulled Liu Lanyan into his arms, whispering in her ear, "Are you tired?"
It was a very casual remark, not something deliberately asked, so Liu Lanyan subconsciously replied, "Not tired."
As soon as she said it, Liu Lanyan's body suddenly trembled.
She forgot something very important.
She overlooked it.
How would she know the methods for cultivating immortal souls in the celestial realm?
How did she know that the Celestial Venerable had not fallen into the demonic path?
He knows.
He knew how awkward her excuse of taking a nap had sounded when she left in such a hurry, but he still went along with her and let her leave without asking any further questions.
When she rushed over and said something inexplicable, he still didn't ask her any questions.
I gave her enough space and enough trust, and in the end, all I wanted was her answer.
Is she tired?
It felt like something was stuck in my heart, a bittersweet feeling.
"I went to the Immortal Realm, so I discovered what was going on there." At this point, Liu Lanyan felt there was nothing left to hide.
"The Immortal Realm?" Clearly, Liu Lanyan underestimated the shock this news had on Mo Yun. "Why did you go to the Immortal Realm? Are you alright? How are you? Where are you injured?"
Mo Yun finished speaking hastily, then suddenly realized something was wrong. After a moment's thought, he immediately understood: "The soul leaves the body?"
"How are you now? Are you still feeling unwell?" Mo Yun gently massaged Liu Lanyan's temples. He knew that once the soul leaves the body, even a slight mishap can cause great harm to the body.
"It's alright now." Liu Lanyan felt the warmth of the Demon God's fingertips and gently shook her head.
The demon god's fingers did not restrain Liu Lanyan's head, but moved with her movements, without causing her any pain.
Liu Lanyan sighed softly. Whether you are good to someone or not is not something you say or do for others to see.
It's the details, the little things that happen in the interactions between people.
Whether someone truly cares for the other person can be revealed through these small details.
"I didn't know anything about the Demon Realm back then, so I made a deal with Qin Ming." Liu Lanyan recounted the whole story.
Qin Ming?
Mo Yun was slightly surprised. Wasn't he dead?
“He was unwilling to accept this, so I spared his soul from being taken by the underworld. He then told me some things about the demon realm.” Liu Lanyan smiled and shrugged. “This time, we really owe a debt to our deal with Qin Ming. Otherwise, we would never have discovered the things about the immortal realm.”
After listening to Liu Lanyan's words, Mo Yun did not speak, but simply lowered his head slightly and stared at the ground.
Liu Lanyan looked at the Demon God in confusion. What was wrong with him?
After thinking hard, I couldn't find anything wrong with what she just said. Could it be that something was amiss and made the demon god angry?
Although the demon god did not make any move, she could clearly sense that he was depressed. What was wrong?
"What's wrong?" Holding back and guessing isn't Liu Lanyan's style; whatever the problem is, they can talk it out openly.
Upon hearing Liu Lanyan's question, Mo Yun slowly raised his head and looked at her, his eyes filled with suppressed emotions. This made Liu Lanyan's heart pound, and a thought flashed through her mind, too fast to grasp, yet it made her very uneasy.
In stark contrast to the intense emotions in his eyes, Mo Yun spoke with utter calmness: "The separation of the soul from the body is not simple."
Liu Lanyan was slightly taken aback; of course, she knew it wasn't simple.
Liu Lanyan, who was puzzled, suddenly understood what the Demon God meant. Her eyes widened and she stared intently at the Demon God, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes, as she hurriedly explained.
"I definitely need to investigate the matter of the Demon Realm, this matter..."
Before Liu Lanyan could finish her hurried explanation, she felt a tight grip on her shoulder and fell into the Demon God's arms, where he held her tightly as if trying to meld her into his body.
"I..." Liu Lanyan wanted to say something more, but she couldn't let the demon god think too much.
"Shh..." Mo Yun whispered in Liu Lanyan's ear, his warm breath, slightly damp, entering her ear, "Don't say anything, I know, I understand."
Liu Lanyan shifted uncomfortably, sighed softly in her heart, swallowed all her words, and reached out to embrace the Demon God.
Yes, there's no need to say anything more.
He doesn't need to blame himself, nor does he need to be sad.
Both of them understood that if it weren't for the appearance of the Demon God, Liu Lanyan would have already left the Demon Realm and gone into seclusion.
There is absolutely no need for any power or clues to investigate matters concerning the Demon Realm.
Both of them knew and understood why Liu Lanyan did this.
If the Demon God were to blame himself at this moment, saying that he failed to protect Liu Lanyan, it would truly be a desecration of their relationship.
He could do anything for Liu Lanyan, and Liu Lanyan could naturally do the same for him.
In relationships, giving is sacred, and accepting with equanimity is equally noble.
Therefore, Mo Yun didn't want to say anything. He just wanted to hold Liu Lanyan tightly, the woman who held his heart and soul.
Carefully nurture it, and never let go.
Liu Lanyan understood the Demon God's thoughts; nothing she said would make a difference.
She wasn't saying the demon god was incompetent; she just didn't want to see him fighting alone.
The two of them don't need to say anything; they understand each other's feelings. For them, silence is the best form of communication.
"Don't worry, the matter in the Three Realms will be over soon, it will pass quickly." Mo Yun gently patted Liu Lanyan's back and said to her, "Lanyan, don't do anything anymore, I'll handle everything."
"Yes." Liu Lanyan did not argue with the demon god, but nodded heavily.
Since it was said by the demon god, she believed it.
"Take a good rest. It's harmful to both the soul and the body if the soul leaves the body." Mo Yun gently stroked Liu Lanyan's hair and coaxed her softly.
"Okay, I know, stop nagging." Liu Lanyan wrinkled her small, pretty nose slightly and muttered a word that sounded both coquettish and reproachful.
Mo Yun raised an eyebrow and said unfriendly, "Dare to say I'm long-winded?"
"It's just that I'm long-winded." Only in front of the Demon God would Liu Lanyan reveal her girlish charm.
"So what if you're long-winded?" With that, Mo Yun lowered his head and pressed his lips precisely against her slightly pouting red lips.
He gently bit Liu Lanyan's lower lip, causing her to let out a soft cry of pain. She slapped his chest with her small hand in dissatisfaction. What kind of thing is this guy? All he knows is how to bite people.
Mo Yun didn't care about anything else. He took the opportunity to force his tongue inside, and they entwined passionately, so intensely that Liu Lanyan couldn't breathe at all.
My heart was beating faster and faster, and I was forced to endure it.
Feel the domineering power and intensity of the demon god.
Without any struggle, Liu Lanyan's awkward cooperation only provoked an even more intense passion.
She knew this was because the demon god had been trying to suppress his emotions, and he needed a way to unleash them.
You could even say it was to confirm her existence, or something like that...
Liu Lanyan could rationally understand, but in practice it was very difficult. She felt her head getting dizzier and dizzier, it was too fast and completely beyond her capacity to bear.
Finally, my mind went completely blank, and I knew nothing.
She only snapped out of her daze when she heard the voice of the demon god. She took a deep breath of fresh air; she had almost suffocated.
Little did he know that his breath had been too strong, and he choked, coughing so loudly that it elicited a burst of laughter from the demon god.
Liu Lanyan glared angrily at the Demon God. It was all this guy's fault, and he still had the nerve to laugh.
Mo Yun looked at Liu Lanyan's eyes, which were slightly misty from coughing. It was less of a glare and more of a seduction that made him swallow hard. He whispered in a hoarse voice, "Lanyan, you'd better not look at me like that. I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself."
"You... shameless!" The demon god's thick skin left Liu Lanyan speechless. Could he be any more shameless?
"Shameless?" Mo Yun clearly disagreed with Liu Lanyan's definition of him, and asked her in a low voice, "If I'm not shameless towards my own woman, then who am I shameless towards?"
He wouldn't even deign to be shameless with other women.
"You, you, you..." Liu Lanyan trembled with anger. This arrogant and conceited guy!
Mo Yun looked at the pale white fingers poking his shoulder, and without thinking, he lowered his head, took them into his mouth, and sucked on them gently. His nimble tongue licked the fingertips, and he slightly raised his eyes, looking up at Liu Lanyan.
