In the vast white world, Mu Xuan's lonely figure was walking nonstop. Every step he took made him gasp for breath, but he did not stop.
It was not that he did not wish to stop. Rather, after he stopped, he was unable to endure the chilliness. Thus, he could only continue to walk and alleviate the chilliness.
However, he had a feeling that he had been walking for three days. Other than the white snow, there was nothing else. He could not see the edge of the endless snowy plains.
In any case, in this snow-covered world, he had thought of many things, including everything that had happened since he could remember. He thought it over in his mind, and at the same time, he spoke of his own regret.
This was something that he had never experienced since he was young. He felt that this was the most peaceful time that he had ever been born in this world, where he could quietly think about his own matters and recall his memories.
The most important thing was that in this snow-white world, there was no longer the torment of the curse. He could feel the situation in his body, but he couldn't discover the curse either. This made him feel as if it wasn't real.
If he had not seen anything alive and knew the pain, he would have thought that he was already dead!
Except, other than him, no one else knew about this, not even if they wanted to share it with someone.
When he thought about sharing, he realized that he hadn't had any friends for thirteen years. Even Wu Ling and the others had been playing and studying together for more than ten years, and he didn't really accept them. He wanted to be friends with them.
In these thirteen years, he had thought too much, heard too much, and read too much. Of course, he knew the meaning of friends, but in this world, there were tens of thousands of friends, and none of them belonged to him.
However, although the brothers and sisters in the Immortal Ancient Town didn't like him, they would still give him a lot of surprises every time they went there. They just wanted to make him happy and smile. They truly treated him with sincerity.
Wu Ling and the others only cared about the speed of their cultivation because they did not understand him. In fact, they were still concerned about him, just like how they helped him withstand a palm strike.
Thinking of this, Mu Xuan was quite satisfied. It was already good enough to get so many people's attention! Some people had lived their whole lives, yet no one cared about them. That was the saddest thing, right?
Just like this, Mu Xuan kept recalling and walking, assuming many of the wishes in his heart. He was happy to keep walking.
He did not know that, because of him, there had almost been a human life outside.
When Cui Ping saw that Gao Wan'er had fed the elixir to Mu Xuan, he became furious and prepared to use his killing move again.
"Big brother!" Don't! Spare him! "He's quite pitiful. The reason why he's acting so crazily today is because he wants to court his own death!"
Cui Ping was stopped by the teenager for a moment, but he didn't stop. He tried to strike with all his strength, killing Gao Wan'er and getting everything he had.
"Stop!"
A furious roar scared Cui Ping, causing him to tremble. His spiritual power was chaotic, and his attack was broken by this sound.
It wasn't because the sound was that powerful, but rather, Cui Ping felt that the source of the sound was from his grandfather and the other Invigorated Meridian Realm martial artists. They had all been struck by the power of the sound.
In the blink of an eye, a middle-aged man with an aged face appeared beside Gao Wan'er, who was hugging Mu Xuan.
Time passes, cannot stop the passion of the heart; youth still, cannot cover up the old people; shining eyes, revealed the rough life.
Gao Wan'er was wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief when she saw a shadow shrouding her. The handkerchief was white and flawless, with only one plum flower that had been embroidered on it.
The person who came was none other than Mu Hong, who had been called over by Wang Sha. After receiving the message, Mu Hong rushed over without even bothering about Wang Sha.
Although he didn't know what Xuan'er was here for, it wasn't that easy to enter the Immortal Ancient Forest, even if it was only the outer perimeter, which was a buffer zone.
It just so happened that Cui Ping wanted to attack his son, so he stopped him. Otherwise, from his point of view, Gao Wan'er's defense wouldn't be able to stop him at all.
Seeing Mu Xuan sleeping in the girl's arms, Mu Hong breathed a sigh of relief. When Gao Wan'er saw that he was ready to defend himself, Mu Hong's heart warmed.
Knowing that Gao Wan'er wouldn't hurt Mu Xuan, he felt relieved and asked amiably, "My lady! Is my Xuan'er okay? "
"He was just knocked unconscious." Although she was a bit annoyed, Gao Wan'er still answered with a smile.
After that, he muttered, "Xuan'er? It's quite a good name, but it's a bit different from his crazy enthusiasm. "
She reached out her hand to take Mu Xuan from Gao Wan'er, but she stopped him with a twist of her body. She pouted and said, "He paid me for a Heaven Stage pill! You have to compensate me! "
Mu Hong was stunned. Then, he thought of something and checked Mu Xuan's condition carefully. Finally, he realized that something was amiss.
Even though Mu Xuan seemed to be asleep, his breathing was faint. He was hanging by a surge of spiritual power. Otherwise, his life would have ended long ago.
He could not help but roar, "Who is the one who wants to do this to Xuan'er!? I will kill him! " He had lost all of his power and influence, and the only thing left in his heart was Mu Xuan, whose life was in danger from the elixir.
Gao Wan'er was startled, while Cui Ping dared not to make a sound. Cui Jie who just came over covered his mouth with both hands, not letting himself make a sound.
Patting her chest, Gao Wan'er came back to her senses and pouted, "As a father, you still have the nerve to criticize others. If I didn't stop your son from dying, he would have already died and even wasted my best pills."
After pushing Mu Xuan into Mu Hong's arms, Gao Wan'er signaled Cui Ping with her eyes. When they were about to leave, she didn't forget to take away the handkerchief that had been used to wipe Mu Xuan's blood.
Cui Ping saw that Gao Wan'er was still defending him and didn't mention anything about him making a move on that young man. He was secretly grateful towards her, but he was a bit embarrassed about his actions.
If Gao Wan'er had said that he wanted to kill Xuan'er, the middle-aged man wouldn't have let her off.
In order to preserve his life, he had to hurry up and leave! He pulled his younger brother Cui Jie along and followed Gao Wan'er without the slightest hesitation.
Mu Hong didn't have time to react and turned around to find that Gao Wan'er and the other two were already out of sight. After all, this was the Immortal Ancient Forest; it was an ancient forest that stood tall and blocked their view.
Although he didn't ask where the three came from, he could tell from their clothes that they were people from the Cui and Gao Families of the Immortal Ancient Town.
Knowing that Mu Xuan's situation wasn't looking good, he urged his spiritual power to open up Mu Xuan's broken muscles and veins and circulated the medicinal power in order to maximize its absorption.
It wasn't long before he heard a sound. When he turned around, he found two men and a woman walking out from the depths of Immortal Ancient Forest. The woman was Mu Xuan's mother.
After seeing Mu Hong, the woman exclaimed, "Brother Hong! Why are you here? "
When he saw Mu Hong carrying Mu Xuan, he rushed to them and asked, "Why did you bring Xuan'er here? Don't you know it's dangerous here? "
Mu Hong's heart was also in pain. After all, from the young girl's words just now, Xuan'er was still courting death!
Without further explanation, Mu Hong transmitted his voice to give a general explanation. Liu Rong personally checked Mu Xuan's situation before heaving a sigh of relief. Then, she turned around to thank the two middle-aged men behind her.
"Thank you, my two sons. If it weren't for your children, my son would have been gone!"
The two middle-aged men said anxiously, "Senior, you must be joking. Senior has not repaid the debt of gratitude that you owe to us for saving our lives!" If Senior had not arrived in time, the lives of the two of us would have been lost in that beast's mouth. "
Liu Rong didn't care about their modesty, she pondered for a long time before making up her mind, "No matter what, your children saved my son, so those elixirs of yours are useful to me, so I won't return it to you. I have two cultivation techniques and martial skills here to repay the two of you! If one has enough lucky chances, they might be able to use this as an opportunity to break through! "
He originally wanted to refuse, but after hearing that there was a chance to break through, his desire was aroused and he didn't persist anymore. He took out all of his spiritual medicines before accepting Liu Rong's two jade slips.
After realizing that it was a Middle Spirit Stage, he was speechless with shock. Senior is indeed a senior! This move was different.
However, knowing the habits of these people, they gave up on the idea of inviting them to their own families. Not to mention that they simply couldn't afford to pay for the resources to invite such an expert, even if they had one, they wouldn't dare to offend these hidden experts with their heart set on returning to their own clan.
He put down the many thoughts in his heart and happily looked at each other before imprinting them on the paper. Only then did he accept the paper and left gratefully. After all, he was worried about his children.
Before they left, Liu Rong even reminded them not to come to this Immortal Ancient Forest unless it was necessary. The forest wasn't as peaceful as they had imagined.
Although it was weird that Liu Rong reminded them like this, since senior warned them, he definitely had his reasons, so he didn't ask too much.
Liu Rong took Mu Xuan, who was still unconscious, from Mu Hong. She also used her spiritual power to comb Mu Xuan's meridians, helping him absorb the medicinal powers. If her cultivation was higher, it would definitely be more helpful to Mu Xuan.
Just like this, Mu Xuan's life could be considered as saved thanks to the aid of the elixirs and the unlocking of his spiritual power along the way.
However, Mu Xuan was still walking in the snowy world day and night. After walking for a long time, even the concept of time had blurred. Perhaps there was a day, or a month, or a year, or three years.
No direction, non-stop walking, tired of eating snow, idle thinking, memories, daydreaming about a beautiful life.
He showed no signs of stopping, and slowly did not feel tired either. However, he did not feel energetic either, almost maintaining a balanced state.
Slowly, Mu Xuan found out what was missing. To call it a world, it would be more accurate to call it a dead world, or a land of death!
Mu Xuan stopped walking and just stood there, staring at the snow on the ground.
When Mu Xuan felt the chilliness, he had a feeling that this was the consciousness of the Snowy World, urging him to move forward.
He had only calculated three years, and he did not want to continue any further. He shouted at the accumulated snow, "I am not even afraid of death! What was there to be afraid of? Lonely? Was it bone-chilling cold? What's the use of all this? "What are you doing? Come out and say it. Don't waste time with me. I don't want to do these meaningless things again!"
There was no response, but Mu Xuan stood in his original spot and told her everything he had thought and felt, but she still didn't get any response.
With a resolute mind, Mu Xuan said, "You must have a purpose. If you don't come out, I will starve to death and make sure everything you do is for naught!"
"Starve to death? Aren't you thinking too simply? I don't want you to die. You can't die at all, and with your current physique, even if you don't eat or drink, you can still live for eight to ten years. "
When Mu Xuan said he was going to die from hunger strikes, a voice finally came. Mu Xuan heard a response and smiled. He knew that his plan was effective. He thought to himself, "Since you have responded to me, then don't run!"
"There are many ways to die. I only recently thought of this. Let's see if you can stop me from dying!"
Mu Xuan was about to bite his tongue and commit suicide.
"Humph!" You are ruthless! "You passed."
It was the first time a wind had risen in the snowy world. It blew strongly and swept Mu Xuan away. The place that appeared afterwards made Mu Xuan's eyes light up.
