Nan Xun sensed someone approaching and lowered his voice to speak.
“But…” Liu Yiyi had changed into new clothes, but her foot was cut by the other party’s sword, which was also poisoned. It would take some time to remove the poison with spiritual energy.
"You go first, I'll stay." Now that things have come to this, she already owes him her life, so no matter what, Liu Yiyi can't bring herself to ask Nan Xun for help.
Even if she can't get revenge, as long as she dies together and takes one more person down with her to the underworld, she can at least atone for her sins.
"I apologize for my intrusion." Nan Xun didn't reply to her, but quickly walked over, whispered an apology, and then picked her up in his arms.
Liu Yiyi never expected that Nan Xun would still take her with him even in this state. Her nose tingled with tears, but this time she wouldn't cry, or rather, she would never cry again.
Because Nanxun said:
"Only by living can one atone for their sins."
…………
"Why would Nan Xun come here?" Qin Moyu was led by Shen Mo and arrived at their destination in almost half a day. Looking down at the endless forest, he couldn't understand why Nan Xun would run to such a desolate place.
As for the plot he knew, it had long since been blown away by the butterfly effect to some obscure corner, and was therefore completely worthless.
Shen Mo guessed a bit: "Perhaps it's to investigate Zhu Qingyun's matter."
“Zhu Qingyun…” Qin Moyu pondered the familiar name for a second, then suddenly realized, “Is that Nan Xun’s master? Is he searching for the cause of his master’s death?”
Finding the truth behind Zhu Qingyun's death is one of the main storylines in the original work. However, this goal is like completing a game level; you always have to defeat the smaller monsters in the earlier stages before you can get the reward.
“Yes.” Shen Mo thought about how he had investigated Nan Xun for so long before finding out that the other party had a special master, but it turned out that Qin Moyu seemed to know more than him. He also thought about how Qin Moyu had believed Nan Xun without hesitation before, and his tone couldn’t help but be sour. “Moyu seems to know Nan Xun very well.”
"It's alright." Qin Moyu was completely oblivious to the overwhelming jealousy in Shen Mo's words, and kept looking around for Nan Xun's whereabouts.
What could Shen Mo say? He didn't even dare to say that the scenery below was better than his own, because he couldn't figure out Qin Moyu's attitude either.
Saying "forgive me" is an understatement. Throughout the journey, Qin Moyu didn't speak to him at all, as if the kiss never happened. He absentmindedly looked at the scenery below, making Shen Mo feel as uncomfortable as if a cat was scratching at his heart.
But it doesn't seem like I can't forgive him. At least Qin Moyu was willing to come with me to find the inheritance, and he didn't say he wanted to leave again, so it seems like there's still a chance.
It seems that no matter when, the more powerful Shen Mo is always the one who is anxious and uneasy when the two are together, while Qin Moyu, who seems naive and innocent, is always the one who dominates this relationship.
And what about Qin Moyu?
He hadn't thought about it at all.
After discovering that Shen Mo was becoming more and more like Shen Yebai, and unsure whether he was actually in love, he decided to follow Shen Yu's advice and act on his heart. When there was no attraction or special feeling, then the scenery below was definitely more beautiful than Shen Mo. No matter how handsome Shen Mo was, you would get tired of looking at him after a while, but the scenery below was always fresh and new.
So, when it comes to romance, nothing beats the beauty of the scenery.
Chapter 71: The Beginning of Being Kicked Off the Bed...
If Qin Moyu were to rely on his eyes to find Nan Xun, he would probably be dead before he could be found. Shen Moyu would have to rely on his divine sense to find him.
"Want to give it a try?" Shen Mo smiled and extended his hand to Qin Moyu.
"Try what?" Qin Moyu looked at him in confusion, but her body betrayed her by placing her hand over.
Shen Mo was secretly pleased and smiled even more brightly. Despite his villainous and wicked appearance, he smiled so innocently. Qin Moyu tried hard not to laugh out loud.
"Let me show you what it's like to use your divine sense to search." Shen Mo held Qin Moyu's hand, the warm and delicate feeling stirring his heart. He said softly, "Close your eyes."
Qin Moyu closed her eyes as instructed.
"Don't look with your eyes, look with your heart."
Shen Mo's voice drifted over slowly, and Qin Moyu was drawn into a strange state by the clasped hands of the two—or more precisely, by the feeling emanating from Shen Mo himself.
The so-called divine consciousness is a kind of application of the soul.
Master Xuanjing once told him that ordinary people's souls are trapped in their bodies, and they can only see things through their eyes. High-level cultivators have undergone long periods of cultivation, and their five senses have been cleansed by spiritual energy, so they can see farther and hear farther sounds, but there are always limits.
But divine sense is different. Divine sense allows the soul to extend out of the body and "see" all things in a formless and intangible way.
Although Qin Moyu's cultivation level has improved considerably, he has not yet reached the point where he can freely control his divine soul.
Using himself as bait, Shen Mo slowly guided Qin Moyu to follow his steps and release his divine soul, allowing Qin Moyu to briefly achieve a state where his divine soul was outside the body.
The feeling of releasing one's divine soul was truly wondrous. Qin Moyu could instantly see the dewdrop on a blade of grass a hundred meters away, and hear the faint sounds of birds chirping and insects humming ten miles away. It seemed that there was nothing he didn't know as long as his divine sense could reach it.
This feeling of having everything under control is truly captivating. Even Qin Moyu remarked that it's no wonder so many people want to cultivate upwards; the feeling of standing atop a peak and looking down on everything is just too exhilarating.
But if we were to say what is most special among all things, it would be Shen Mo, who is right beside me.
Unlike other insects, plants, birds, and beasts that are present but clearly not threatening, Shen Mo practically screams "danger" in big letters, his presence like a 200-watt light bulb shining alone in the dead of night.
Qin Moyu silently "looked" at Shen Mo.
Shen Mo was aware of his strong presence. Despite his efforts to conceal his aura, the vast difference in strength between him and Qin Moyu still put immense pressure on Qin Moyu's soul.
It wasn't that Shen Mo couldn't make himself invisible, but if he did, Qin Moyu would immediately emerge from her spiritual state without guidance, which would be a loss.
Shen Mo felt that if he was going to give it to Qin Moyu, he should give him the best, and even the spiritual experience should not end so hastily.
The pressure from Shen Mo was so intense that Qin Moyu felt uncomfortable, and her soul instinctively shrank back into her body.
Shen Mo hesitated for a moment, then tentatively used his divine sense to approach Qin Moyu.
This was also the first time he had guided someone else's soul out of their body. He remembered that ancient books said that if one person's soul was unstable, it could be stabilized by wrapping it with the soul of the other person.
