Mu Xiang hesitated and asked, "She won't die, will she?"
"No."
Mu Xiang breathed a sigh of relief.
Outside the city gate.
Mu An Xiao sat on the ground, looked down at her blood-soaked cloth shoes, then looked up at the city gate again, muttering, "Damn it!" She then tried to use her magic to stop the bleeding.
But it was in vain.
"..." She lowered her hand, gritted her teeth against the pain, looked at her equally injured arm, gasped as she tilted her head back, and with all her might, pushed herself up from the ground. She stood unsteadily, limping, and walked towards the city gate.
Inside the city.
A Long stopped outside the gate of a mansion and turned to look at the old man, asking, "Where is Mu An Xiao?"
Upon hearing this, the old man glanced left and right and said, "I don't know."
"..." A Long had expected Mu An Xiao to follow and take a look, but she was nowhere to be seen. She expressed her helplessness, turned around, and gently knocked on the wooden door.
Instantly.
The old man's eldest son opened the door.
"It's you?" He recognized A Long at a glance.
A Long nodded slightly, moved aside to glance at the old man standing behind her, and then turned back to the eldest son, asking, "Where is your mother?"
"My mother is cooking inside. She said that when father returns," the man felt guilty towards the old man, and his expression became noticeably unnatural, "he will be hungry."
The old man looked calmly at his eldest son and suddenly became serious: "You're not happy to see your father return?"
The man was startled and then looked up at the old man, whose demeanor had completely changed, asking, "You're not confused anymore?"
The old man: "..." He had completely forgotten about his confusion. Hearing his eldest son say this, he also looked at A Long with surprise, "A Long, did you cure me?"
"This is what I owe you. Take good care of your wife."
"You..." The old man looked at A Long with reluctance and asked, "Are you really leaving?"
"Yes." A Long nodded slightly.
"You can bear to leave me..."
"At this point, saying such things is meaningless." A Long interrupted again, looking at the man, "Take your father inside to eat. Your family should be well from now on, and don't always blame your father."
The man listened to A Long's words and thought about what he had done to A Long last night. His eyes darkened, and he said, "My mother said she also prepared something for you."
"I don't eat mortal food," A Long refused outright.
The man glanced at the old man who was staring at A Long and said, "If I remember correctly, twenty years ago, the day you left..." he said, "it was also in the morning. You were supposed to eat breakfast, but my mother drove you away."
Twenty years ago?
A Long never expected the man to remember what happened twenty years ago that morning.
So, she sneered, "I thought you had forgotten it all."
"..." The man pursed his lips and said, "Before, I had forgotten. Thanks to that person, I remembered."
A Long knew that the person the man was referring to was actually Mu An Xiao, but she didn't want to reveal it.
"As humans, it is better to be kind," she said. Little Snail Chinese Network.
"Yes." The man nodded slightly, carefully glancing at the old man, and said, "Father, I'm sorry."
The old man: "You are my son, you have nothing to apologize to me. It is I who should apologize to you."
"Father..."
"Don't be sentimental at the door. If you have anything to say, say it inside. I..." A Long interrupted and took a step back, "I should go."
The man: "Don't go, stay and have breakfast with us to express my apology."
The mountains and rivers may change, but a person's nature is hard to alter!
Looking at the man before her, who was completely different from yesterday, A Long thought that his change was not easy. If she refused again, it would be bad for him and for everyone.
With that in mind, she compromised, "Alright, for your sake, I'll eat one breakfast."
"That year, I told you, I'm sorry."
"Why are you apologizing to me?" A Long no longer remembered what had happened that year.
The man: "Honestly, last night, I had a very long dream, a dream related to you. After waking up, I realized that without you, our family wouldn't be so good, and my father wouldn't be so formidable. So... I'm sorry."
At this moment, A Long suddenly felt her life had value. Her eyes welled up with tears. "Your words are enough. Let's go eat."
The old man: "Let's go." He smiled.
The distance from outside the city to here was far. A Long had been walking with all her might along the way. She had intended to leave quickly after delivering the old man here, and hand over her soul to Mu An Xiao to help Mu An Xiao complete her mission.
Who knew that Mu An Xiao had disappeared.
So, she wanted to use her last trace of demonic energy to fly back outside the city to meet Mu An Xiao.
But now, it seemed her plan was not going to be realized.
"After this meal, I will have no regrets," A Long said, and began to use her last bit of demonic energy to sustain her mental state, awaiting death.
"Don't say that." The old man did not want to accept the fact that A Long was leaving.
A Long: "Stop talking, let's go inside." She didn't want to say too much to the old man, because she knew that no matter how perfect the assurances were, they were all false. It was better to be real.
The man: "Let's go."
And so, A Long followed them inside.
At this time, Mu An Xiao stopped in front of a secluded alley. Then, using her last bit of strength, she leaned tightly against the wall. Her mind was unclear as she mumbled, "Strange, where is that old man's house?" As she spoke, she panted and rested her head against the wall.
At the same time, Feng Qi Shi stopped on a street not far from Mu An Xiao and muttered to himself, "Strange, where is the person?" He looked straight ahead.
Then, the dagger tucked into his waist spoke, "Turn your head."
Startled by the voice, Feng Qi Shi jumped, looked down at the dagger, and asked in surprise, "How are you with me?"
The dagger: "When you took flight, I caught up with you," she said, moving slightly. "Hurry, Mu An Xiao seems to be in trouble."
Hearing the dagger's words, Feng Qi Shi quickly turned his head and saw Mu An Xiao, who was covered in blood. "No way," he muttered, and quickly ran towards Mu An Xiao.
Mu An Xiao did not notice Feng Qi Shi's arrival. She was still leaning against the wall, her eyes slightly narrowed, staring at her arm. Just as she was about to speak again, Feng Qi Shi grabbed her injured arm.
The next second, her eyes widened. Before she could cry out, she fainted.
Seeing this, Feng Qi Shi didn't have time to think. He quickly reached out to catch Mu An Xiao, picked her up, and urgently asked, "Dagger, where to now?"
"The old man's house," the dagger said.
Feng Qi Shi nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you." He then turned, holding Mu An Xiao, and ran through the winding alleys via the shortcut.
