ha!
The captain of the guard was so shocked that he fell face-first into the mud.
"puff--"
Although it was very unethical, the scene was so funny that Qin Moyu couldn't help but laugh out loud, but immediately covered her mouth.
—Don't laugh, don't laugh.
Shen Mo's anger at being pointed at with a weapon miraculously melted away in Qin Moyu's laughter. He felt both helpless and amused by this farce.
He has indeed been out of the public eye for too long, and the fact that they don't recognize him is precisely a testament to his dedication. Why be so critical?
Shen Mo waved his hand and said helplessly, "Get up. I told you there's no need for such a grand ceremony."
Shen Sheng simply lowered his head and slowly got up without saying a word.
As the saying goes, "the more polite you are, the less likely you are to be offended." Although I don't know why things have turned out this way, as long as our ancestors aren't angry, we should still be polite no matter how much we need to be.
Although he was no longer angry, Shen Mo didn't want to relive the heartbreaking scene from just now. He turned to Shen Yebai and got back to business.
"I'll give you fifteen minutes, is that enough?"
Shen Yebai knew that this was the last time Shen Mo was giving him to spend with Qin Moyu.
That's enough.
Shen Yebai lowered his eyelids slightly.
"good."
Shen Mo nodded and set up a formation for Shen Yebai and Qin Moyu, giving them enough space.
"I'm waiting for you."
As he spoke, he turned and gestured for Shen Sheng to leave with his men.
Shen Sheng understood and obediently took everyone away—of course, since Shen Yu was temporarily unable to move due to the array, he was carried away.
Shen Mo found a place to sit cross-legged and close his eyes to cultivate.
A quarter of an hour is neither a long nor a short time.
The array set up by Shen Mo could not only isolate people, but also divine sense. So, unless Shen Mo specifically looked, he didn't know what Shen Yebai and Qin Moyu had said to each other in that short time.
But he knew when Shen Yebai finished talking and slowly opened his eyes.
Before taking Shen Yebai away, he glanced at Qin Moyu. He didn't know what Shen Yebai had said, but although Qin Moyu's eyes were slightly red, her emotions remained stable, though she seemed a little reluctant to part with him.
Shen Mo secretly breathed a sigh of relief that Qin Moyu was not as heartbroken as he had imagined.
Wait a minute, why am I so afraid of hurting his feelings?
The thought flashed through Shen Mo's mind, but he quickly dismissed it.
Because more important than thinking about this problem is integrating with Shen Yebai.
Looking at Shen Yebai, who was almost identical to himself, Shen Mo was overjoyed. Years of planning had led to this day.
As the familiar call from the depths of his soul grew louder, Shen Yebai closed his eyes and chose to let it go.
—The integration has begun.
Chapter Fifty-Seven: Heartbeat Whatever you like, I'll do it for you…
The fusion process was not as simple as imagined. Since Shen Yebai was merging voluntarily, Shen Mo completed the fusion with almost no obstacles.
When he opened his eyes again, Shen Yebai was no longer there.
However, Shen Mo's memories of Shen Yebai remain vague.
This is not surprising.
After all, since his soul had been divided for so many years, it would take some time for the memories and emotions belonging to Shen Yebai to be fully integrated. Shen Mo had endured it all these years, so a month or two wouldn't make a difference. Therefore, even so, it didn't affect Shen Mo's good mood.
However, now that they've merged, his plan can proceed.
After much deliberation and pacing around the room for a long time, he finally decided to find someone before going to the Demon Lord.
…………
A day and a night had passed since Shen Mo took Shen Yebai away. Qin Moyu was treated as an honored guest and stayed in the palace. Bored, she came to visit Shen Yu, who had been imprisoned again.
This time, Shen Sheng was determined to lock up Shen Yu. Not only did he guard her tightly with layers upon layers of security, but he also found a precious book from somewhere and punished Shen Yu by making her copy it fifty times and draw the illustrations inside. She wasn't allowed to leave the house until she finished copying it.
The book was ridiculously thick; Shen Yu had been copying it so much these past few days that he was almost going crazy. When he saw Qin Moyu come over, he acted as if he had seen a great benefactor.
"Only you remember me, waaaaaah." Shen Yu looked at Qin Moyu with teary eyes, almost ready to hug Qin Moyu's leg and shout "Good person!" three times.
Qin Moyu was amused by his pitiful appearance, and her originally heavy mood brightened up a bit.
He casually found a chair to sit down and started chatting with Shen Yu in a casual manner.
At first, they were just chatting about everything under the sun, but somehow the conversation drifted to Shen Yebai.
Shen Yu asked first, "Oh right, where did your Daoist partner go? Did you tell him when you came here?"
