Volume 5: The Mystery of Shamo Chapter 11 I only wish to live and die with you
"In that case, you'd better take care of yourselves!" After pondering for a long time, Mo Wutan finally seemed to give in.
After hearing this, Mo Yi and Gong Lili both breathed a sigh of relief. Gong Lili subconsciously thought that he was frightened by the lies just now, but Mo Yi felt something was wrong. In his memory, his father did not seem to be such an easy-going person. He was famous for his stubbornness back then.
However, since he was willing to let Gong Lili go at this time, Mo Yi naturally wanted it more than he wanted.
Just when Mo Wutan had made up his mind and was ready to play the long game and catch the big fish, when he turned around and was about to leave, he was stopped by Mo Yi.
"Father, I have a question that I can't figure out." Qing Lili frowned slightly, because she could feel Mo Yi's whole body tense up. She could even feel his hand tightly wrapped around her waist, trembling slightly. What did he want to ask? Why was he so nervous?
Mo Wutan stopped and turned around to see his son's serious face: "What's the matter?" He suddenly had a premonition that this was not a question he would like.
"How did mother die back then?" Mo Yi's expression was extremely solemn at this moment, his dark eyes like midnight staring at his father intently.
"Have you been living in reverse for the past five hundred years? You even forgot how your mother died?!" Mo Wuotan curled his lips, and a mocking look appeared on his face. Only then did Ying Lili understand that Mo Yi's habit of curling his lips was actually hereditary.
"What I want to know is not what you told me, what I want to know is the real truth!" Mo Yi interrupted his father rudely. What he saw in the Ice Palace that day made him gradually begin to doubt the matter that he thought was settled.
These days, he has been recalling the scenes of the past over and over again. Although he was young at the time and more than five hundred years have passed, the scenes and details of the past have always remained in his mind. He always feels that there is something strange about his mother's death, and it is definitely not as his father downplayed. It was because his mother went astray while practicing, causing her tendons and veins to reverse, and finally her spiritual power exploded and she died.
Mo Wutian's expression gradually darkened, and his voice was intimidating without anger: "Do you think your father is deliberately hiding this from you?"
"I just want to know the truth." Mo Yi spoke every word with a sharp gaze, not giving in at all.
"The truth is what I told you back then! There is not and cannot be a second truth!" Mo Wutan didn't seem willing to talk too much about what happened back then. He threw down these words and disappeared in the blink of an eye!
"Since that's the case, I'll have no choice but to find the truth myself." Regardless of whether his father heard him or not, Mo Yi was determined as his voice echoed in the night sky for a long time...
Mo Wutan naturally heard his son's last words, and felt depressed. He flew several miles quickly on his sword, and then he played the flute again. This time the sound of the flute was extremely strange and out of tune, but it seemed extremely distant and long.
Swish, swish, swish, accompanied by the sound of the flute, several black shadows gradually appeared in the night sky.
"Call back all the men scattered across the country. That day is approaching, so we must prepare early." Mo Wutian's voice drifted coldly in the night sky, like an icy sword in the darkness...
Ping Lili stood in the void, pinching the Life-Saving Technique and staring at the direction where Mo Wutan disappeared for a long time. Until she confirmed that the other party had really left, she exhaled heavily, feeling that everything was like a dream. She could not believe that the other party would let her go like this. Her clenched fists loosened slightly, and she found that she was covered in cold sweat.
This was a powerful opponent that Gong Lili had never faced before. After the battle in Yonghui City, she originally thought that she had been promoted to the ranks of the top-notch strongmen in the Xu Ming Realm, at least she was not a weakling who could be slaughtered at will. She had never been afraid when facing Jianyi and Suzaku, but now it seems that there are always people better than you in this Xu Ming Realm. In front of Mo Yi's father, she once again felt her own weakness and powerlessness. It was a feeling that the opponent could kill her in the blink of an eye. Although she could not feel a trace of the opponent's spiritual pressure, the oppressive feeling of momentum and the mental deterrence were like an invisible sword.
It seems that I have to become stronger!
"It's late, let's go back." Mo Yi's voice came faintly from behind. Gong Lili just remembered the last words he shouted. Although she didn't understand what the father and son were talking about, she vaguely understood that this was another knot in Mo Yi's heart.
She subconsciously turned around and just happened to face him. At that moment, the loneliness on Mo Yi's face that he had no time to hide and the faint wrinkles between his brows fell into her eyes unexpectedly. For no reason, her heart seemed to be tugged at by someone, and suddenly, she felt sorry for this man whom she loved to the bone.
How many secrets does he hide in his heart? And how many past events does he refuse to share?
Ping Lili closed her golden-brown eyes slightly, and when she raised her eyes again, a flash of determination appeared in her eyes.
She pulled up Mo Yi's right hand without saying anything, and in Mo Yi's surprised eyes, she spread out his palm, then suddenly bit her finger, and with a little red on her white jade-like fingertips, she drew a talisman on Mo Yi's palm like a dragon and a snake.
She could be heard mumbling something, as if reciting some ancient spell, and then a tear-shaped cinnabar mole gradually appeared in the palm of Mo Yi's hand.
"This is the mark of my soul. Now, I write it on the palm of your hand. No matter how many reincarnations I have, no matter whether I am alive or dead, no matter whether I turn into flowers, butterflies, insects, birds or beasts, as long as you think of me, you can find me. So, no matter when, you are not alone. Remember this." The cold moonlight made Yan Lili's face as bright as jade, but the words that came out of her pretty and small red lips were so burning, and every word fell on Mo Yi's brow and heart.
This woman, in her own way , so stubbornly and firmly made a lifelong promise to Mo Yi that as long as he still remembered her, she would never leave him.
Because she didn't want to see him with such a lonely expression again, she just wanted to use her tenderness to smooth out the wrinkles on his brow that had been tangled for years.
This is the most secret forbidden technique of the Shamo clan, a forbidden technique that Shamo wizards will never use lightly, because this mark will brand her with his mark for the rest of her life.
He could forget her and treat her as a passing cloud in his life, but as long as he still thought of her, he could easily find her among the vast sea of people. This was a one-sided contract, a contract of never abandoning or betraying, and this was all that Yinglili could give to Mo Yi.
Mo Yi had also heard a little about the legend about this soul mark. At this moment, he stared blankly at the bright red cinnabar mark on the palm of his hand, his heart was filled with excitement. She actually promised him life after life?
"Lili, I..." Mo Yi's subsequent words were drowned out by a long roar that broke through the air, so that Lili had no time to hear clearly what he said.
Just like that, some words were missed.
Mo Yi reacted to the sneak attack in an instant. He pulled Gong Lili behind him with one hand, and with the other hand, he shot out from the air like a whirlwind, turning the attack into nothingness. However, when the man came closer, Mo Yi and Gong Lili were stunned almost at the same time!
The person coming is Yan Zheng!
In all the time Yan Lili had known him, she had never seen such an expression on his face. His anger was evident, and his already dark face had now turned a dark red. Could it be that he had heard their previous conversation with Mo Yi's father? Could it be that he already knew Mo Yi's identity as a Yuren?
Impossible! But with Yan Zheng's cultivation level, he couldn't hide his aura so perfectly!
Then why does he look so angry?
"Let her go!" Yan Zheng blurted out, leaving Mo Yi and Gong Lili startled again. They wondered what was going on. Mo Yi's brows furrowed again, his face showing extreme displeasure. Gong Lili quickly grabbed his hand to prevent him from losing his temper. She knew that if Mo Yi got serious, Yan Zheng would definitely not be his opponent.
Yan Zheng is an extremely important clan member and friend to her, and she doesn't want to see them fighting.
She quickly pulled Mo Yi behind her and asked anxiously, "What's going on? Yan Zheng, why are you here too?"
"Lord Gong Lili, don't be fooled by him! He is from Nayu!" Yan Zheng's face was dark at this time, and his brows were twisted into one. He really knew Mo Yi's identity as a Nayu person, but listening to his words, his understanding seemed to be a little biased. Could it be that he thought Gong Lili was deceived by Mo Yi's beauty trap without knowing it?
"G, Yan Zheng, this is a long story. Don't get excited. Mo Yi is not a bad person." As Ying Lili said this, she felt that Mo Yi behind her had already broken free from her hand. Yan Zheng's words just now obviously made Mo Yi unhappy.
Fearing that Mo Yi would attack again, Gong Lili turned around and glared at him fiercely. After using her eyes to signal him to calm down first, she turned around and continued to say to Yan Zheng, "How did you know he was from Nayu?"
She knew that Yan Zheng was an honest man and would not lie. In short, she wanted to sound him out first to see what he knew before making any plans, so as to avoid causing trouble by speaking out of turn and revealing her own secrets.
At this moment, he saw another person rushing over from a distance. He looked closely and found it was Zeze, holding the Purple Cloud Beast in his arms . He rubbed his forehead with a heavy head, thinking that he must have seen a ghost tonight. Why did everyone come to join in the fun!
Before Zeze arrived, a voice was heard: "Brother Zheng, don't get excited. I was just talking nonsense because I was confused in my sleep."
Ping Lili suddenly realized what was going on, and glared at Ze Ze fiercely, thinking to himself, well, it turns out that the culprit is you!
