which left the interrogators exasperated with his rambling.But those interrogating also knew in their hearts that arresting Old Chen was due to orders from above. They just had to complete the mission...Bai Qiyee's smile was meaningful.

"Why should I help you No no... I'm not helping you, I'm just handling affairs for the underworld ~~hihihi~~..."

"Little Princess," he said, poking my forehead with a finger. "You're such a clever little girl, how can you not see through it"

See through

"Qī yē... I'm just an ordinary person, what could I possibly see through"

"Hee hee hee..."

He suddenly reached out and grabbed my wrist, smiling and saying, "Come on, I'll take you to see..."

Originally, the hole I had dug was only big enough for my thin body to squeeze out. Suddenly, Qiyè grabbed me and took me toward another hole and "flew" with me!

His form shifted like semi-transparent gauze. I was enveloped within it, as if frozen by ice. This bone-chilling cold seeped into my very marrow, and in that instant, even my mind seemed to freeze.

The world outside the chasm was darker than the tunnels of Mount Jísǐ.

Although it was dawn, the originally indigo sky was covered by rolling black clouds.

There are no stars nor moon.

Standing on Mount Jishi, all I see is the ground cracking and the sky collapsing, with dark clouds pressing down like a heavy canopy.

The spirit of the Azure Dragon swirled within the black clouds, thunder and lightning clashing, bolts of rolling thunder surging from the horizon.

Previously, Bai Wu Chang set up a formation on a small patch of flat ground by the stream. At that time, the mouth of the yin road well was not large.

At this time, the well mouth spread from the creek bank, with circles of black ripples spreading out, farther and farther, darker and darker.

Across the mountains and fields, dyed like ink.

Just now, where the sealed passage was, black ripples appeared beneath my feet—the mouth of the Yin Road's well had spread.

At this time, the black aura emanating from the edge of the well is spreading, and the core area is gradually expanding.

"... See that little white circle" Bai Wuchang said with a grin. "When that circle expands to cover the whole mountain, all the spirits here will fall down, hoh ho ho, what amazing magic, no wonder Heaven's Decree is like this..."

"What kind of destiny is this" I frowned, looking down at the black lines beneath my feet.

Just like dropping an ink stone into a pond, ripples spread out in black, circle after circle, gradually covering the entire mountain range within my sight.

"Oh my... the current Wuzhi Mountain City, it's an empty city, this Dead Mountain will soon become a tomb as well~~~"

His tone was somewhat joyful, but the scene before him shifted with storm clouds and the air grew icy.

In the most treacherous part of the mountain, there was a hazy glow. Looking up, you could see two figures, one standing and one sitting, within the glow.

The Celestial Emperor stood there, gazing lightly at the black spreading across the heavens and earth.

This appearance, is just like when I first met him.

That night, with a furious storm raging, he walked through the forest, his umbrella keeping him dry. He watched the changing landscape with his hands behind his back, observing the ordinary people toiling for their homes.

Just like now, he stood beside Mu Wanchen, his eyes cast down to watch as the rocky slope was stained by the darkness of the well opening. Yet, he remained silent and motionless, arms at his side.

Mu Wanchen was right beside him.

I almost thought I was seeing things, wasn't that Mu Wanchen

He sat atop the jagged boulder, legs crossed and eyes closed, surrounded by a halo of flickering light.

Is he casting a spell Master is beside him, not interfering at all, even watching with his arms crossed. Does this mean Master agrees

"Qiyé, what are you doing" I couldn't climb up the steep cliff, so I turned to ask Bai Wu Chang beside me.

"You're not going to destroy everyone here, are you These are all lives!" I don't understand Mu Wanchen's motives, nor do I understand why Master is just watching coldly.

I could only anxiously yell at Bai Wuchang.

"Roar... well, 'roar' might be a stretch, my voice is pretty much hoarse."

Fear and bewilderment prevented me from asking with any force, my voice coming out in broken fragments.

But he heard it.

Mu Wanchen slightly lowered his eyes to look at me. Even from a distance, I could still feel his gaze.

Soft as water.

Gentle like water……

The clouds in the sky churned and roiled, while black streaks like waves rippled across the ground.

A cold wind howled, the chill piercing like a knife.

I stood in such an environment, feeling only despair and helplessness. Why, why would he still have such a gentle gaze

I don't know how to handle these people, but I don't want them to die. These are lives, the people of Mu Wanchen, and it is Mu Wanchen's responsibility to protect them.

The original anxiety and fear gradually subsided in Mu Wanchen's gaze.

I took a deep breath and lifted my gaze to meet his.

Little Luo'er, Little Luo'er, when those three words come out of his mouth, they always melt my tough exterior into water.

He always gives me a double-edged feeling, sweet yet anxious, gentle yet silent...

There was also a hint of loneliness and reluctance.

Regret, yes, that's the feeling.

From the very beginning, he held the sentiment that we couldn't be together day and night.

So he sent me away.

Even now, those eyes are gentle in a way that seems at odds with the atmosphere around them.

But it seemed to be telling a story of parting.

No, nothing pains me more right now than being separated.

I had just fallen deep into this relationship. I hadn't even gotten to be spoiled and make a fuss, to be gentle and carefree, to go on dates and have fun, or to foolishly discuss the future!

There are still so many things we haven't done together, right

Can he feel it

The spirit of the Azure Dragon let out a deafening roar, causing the mountains behind Death Peak to tremble. A colossal black dragon surged from the depths, violently shaking the mountain's foundation.

Rocks crumbled, trees toppled, and the Serpent of the Mountain roared with authority, but the black dragon ignored its warning.

"...Within this method, there are truly too many things hidden...The Panlong has been hiding in this deep ravine for a thousand years, ha ha ha..."

"My Lady, the Star Sovereign of the Ninth Heaven would not allow outsiders to exist in the mortal realm. It was by chance that the magical gate was damaged; it is fate. Survival of the fittest, destruction and renewal – this is the way of things."

The Great Shaman King saw clearly, and did his best...These people will eventually go to where they belong...hihihi...Come on, little princess.

Bai Wu Chang said it lightly, but my heart burned like a raging fire.

What on earth is Mu Wanchen doing—he's covering the entrance to the Yinlu Well with the entire mountain, does he want to bury himself!

And what about him, his looks!

"Little princess If you don't leave, don't blame me for taking action~!" Bai Wu Chang's warning voice echoed in my ear.

But I don't care, I don't care!

Why does Mu Wanchen look different!

His jet-black hair, was covered in snow, turning white under the soft glow.

"Wàn chén!!" I shouted hoarsely.

But I was pushed on the forehead by Bai Wu's single finger, and in that instant, I fell.

I looked at him

There were no stars nor moon in the sky, yet his gaze was gentle like a lake reflecting the Milky Way.

Wàn Chén, Mù Wǎn Chén.
