Chapter 34: Return to the Divine Realm
It's not easy to comfort a man who is sulking, and even lifting his hand requires effort.
Embracing the person in her arms, Mo Jiu Yu grasped that small hand and played with it non-stop. However, when she sensed the commotion coming from outside, a cold glint flashed in her eyes.
"These people's news is indeed fast..." The same feeling of being ridiculed by the outside world, a frivolous and sarcastic remark was made, as she got up from the man's arms.
There are always people who don't know better in this world, and they just so happen to stir up a hornet's nest without realizing it. Mo Jiu You was already in a bad mood and was helping Qing Kuang put on his clothes when he heard the shouting outside, and his movements immediately came to a halt.
"Hey! Whoever is inside, come out quickly! Are you trying to be a turtle hiding in its shell?" A piercing female voice came, with an unmistakable tone of arrogance.
With a loud crash, the door shattered into fragments, all flying towards the approaching person outside. The first to bear the brunt was that arrogant woman.
"Ah..."
"My goodness..."
Hearing the noise outside, she gave the man a light and fierce glance, but her movements in her hand remained slow, obviously not putting the troublemaker outside in her eyes, it's just a pity for her door...
"Don't you know how to be gentle?" She lazily leaned against Mo Jiu You's body, letting the man help her tie her belt.
"What are they, daring to scold you? Letting them off with a warning is already my greatest mercy." Still with an air of superiority, but when facing his beloved daughter, the man immediately changed his expression, gentle and not at all like the original Demon King. "Wear this... my daughter looks really good! Come give daddy a kiss~"
Slap the man's face who came over, turn around and want to leave, but can't get rid of it. "Hurry up, people outside are waiting!"
"No one invited them over, and getting beaten up is their own fault!" Yu Yan changed back into his ugly appearance, and Mo Jiu was finally satisfied.
At that time, when the crowd outside was wailing and crying out in pain, he slowly and leisurely finally came out, and as soon as he appeared, he gave everyone a big show! How did this person have a pair of red eyes? It wasn't like that before!
"Hmph! You're that thief who's been hiding in fear? Hand over the goods quickly!" The disheveled woman sprang up, her eyes flashing with anger as she glared in the direction of Qing Cang. Despite being clearly not young, she still managed to maintain an air of elegance, dressed in a white silk robe. There were always foolish people around, and many onlookers held a wait-and-see attitude, including some familiar faces who wouldn't dare to provoke her.
Wow! Looking for trouble, but where did this guilty escape start from? With her arms around her chest, she slightly narrowed her eyes and looked at the few unfamiliar faces in front of her. They should be the ones who came during the time she left!
"Who can tell me what's going on here?" The slightly hoarse tone of the rising inflection made some familiar faces tremble with a hint of danger.
"What else can be said, the thing is what you stole, wait for it, someone will come to interrogate you soon, and see how you can defend yourself then!" The leading woman really didn't know her place, and in her excitement, she obviously ignored the different expressions of the people around her. As long as this matter was handled well, she could leave an impression on the gods' messenger, why bother struggling here? She would soon ascend to the divine realm and trample these people underfoot. Besides, she had already notified the investigating god's messenger before coming, believing they would arrive soon.
The foolish woman only saw the immediate benefits, but didn't see the mysterious and subtle things hidden behind. Not to mention that she was always arrogant and not a good person to get along with, even the Mo Jiao You behind her was also narrow-minded. So the foolish woman had already dug a hole for herself without realizing it, and was still happily jumping into it.
For the woman in front of him, Liang Kuang chose to ignore her. Since no one could speak up now, she would just have to wait. With a slight hint, Mo Yu understood what he meant and picked her up horizontally, sitting in mid-air with his large hands rubbing her slender waist again and again.
Two people seemed to be in their own backyard, but the woman in front of them was so angry that she couldn't breathe. However, before she could speak again, she was stopped by Mo Jue's cold and ruthless gaze, and even the people around her didn't dare to make a sound. They had seen "Jun Qing" 's methods before, and they knew they couldn't mess with him! Absolutely couldn't mess with him!
Now that Mo Jiu had achieved his desired outcome, he was finally satisfied. Since the young lady from his household wanted to wait, then so be it!
"Tired?" The man's hands continued to move, patiently inquiring, where was his previously fierce appearance?
"It's okay......" The force was just right, the soreness and pain were relieved instantly, making the slightly furrowed eyebrows relax, and the depression in her heart also decreased a lot.
Just as she was feeling a little better, someone came along and added insult to injury.
The five people wearing white cloaks arrived late, but as soon as they landed on the ground, they were rushed to the front by that stupid woman with a flattering expression.
"It's her, the thief! I found out she was back this morning and immediately reported it to you. She's the one who stole the White Spirit Wall and now she's walking right into our trap! Please, Honorable Sirs, punish her severely!" The foolish woman pointed at Qingkuang, not forgetting to curry favor at the same time.
Upon hearing this, Qing Kuang finally understood what had happened. However, this woman should no longer be stupid, but fierce! Even if it was for the sake of advancement, would she have eaten her own brain? No one would admit to such a thing, and which thief would steal something and then throw themselves into the net? Although Bai Lingbi was taken away by her, how could she possibly admit it in public?
A burst of snickering erupted from the crowd, and the gazes directed at the white-robed old woman were filled with even more disdain. Even the five divine envoys who arrived later had expressions full of displeasure, as if they felt deceived by someone.
"What do you have to say, was White Spirit Wall taken away by you?" The divine messenger standing in the middle spoke first, using a neutral tone with the word "taken". The disappearance of White Spirit Wall from the Nurturing Soul Institute was originally just a small matter, and it would be fine to just use an illusion device to take a look. However, the strange thing is that none of the illusion devices showed anything, and the only scene that could be seen was that White Spirit Wall had vanished. That's why people were sent down to investigate, but as time passed, even after such a long time, the truth of the matter still couldn't be known, which led to the attention from above, and the number of investigators increased from two to five, causing a stir in the Nurturing Soul Institute.
Changing his posture, he glanced at the questioner with a light and wild look, and replied calmly, "I didn't take it!"
Mo Jiu Yu was gently looking at the little girl in her arms, who was quietly following behind her. In her heart, she couldn't help but agree. Mmm... indeed, their family's Xiao Tuan was innocent because he was the one who did everything!
"You're talking nonsense! If it wasn't you who took it, then why did White Ling Wall disappear on the same day that you disappeared?" As soon as she heard this, the old woman in white clothes became even more agitated, and only wanted to shift the blame onto Qing Kuang's shoulders. If today's matter didn't succeed, her face would be utterly lost.
"This... um... auntie? I'd like to ask, which eye did you see me take the White Spirit Wall with? However, if it's as you say, then I have my doubts too. I've never seen you before, so are you new here? If that's the case, I'm also curious, why was everything peaceful before you arrived, but after you came, the White Spirit Wall disappeared? Everyone present is a clever person, let's think carefully about this." Her mouth maintained a perfect smile as she lightly turned the tables on them. Since these people didn't catch her as soon as they met, it proved that there was no evidence, so naturally, she had nothing to fear.
As soon as this was said, the onlookers who were just watching the commotion also began to waver in their minds. This person is right! For so many years, everything has been peaceful, why would such a thing happen recently? Could it be...
"You're talking nonsense! This is a frame-up, a trap! Your Honor, she's telling nothing but lies, you mustn't believe her! She's the thief, I'm sure of it, White Lingbi was stolen by her!" The woman in white was suddenly flustered and anxiously defended herself.
"Alright, this is not a public trial, we naturally have our own numbers in mind. Since the matter involves both of you, please follow us and it will be more convenient for us to investigate the truth!"
"What's it to me? This has nothing to do with me, I didn't do it, it wasn't me..."
"Alright! I believe Lord God will give me a satisfactory explanation."
One was like a madwoman, shouting and screaming wildly, while the other was calm and composed, cooperating with her. And so, in the eyes of the crowd, the scales naturally tipped towards the crazy side.
However, this scene was a bit chaotic for a moment, and seeing things get to this point, Mo Jiu You didn't like it.
"I'll see who dares to take her away!" The moment the strong pressure was released, the five gods' messengers who had turned around and were about to leave suddenly looked shocked, swiftly turning their heads towards Mo Jiu You's direction.
Strong! Very strong! Strong to the point of being unfathomable! The five people's hearts sounded an alarm, when did the Nurturing Spirit Temple produce such a person? And yet, someone so powerful hasn't even entered the Immortal Realm? It's truly too unbelievable!
"Who is this..." The middle divine messenger spoke up again, only with a more cautious attitude.
"I said no one is allowed to take her away, didn't you hear? The man, who was holding the waist of the delicate and lovely woman tightly, how could he bear his precious daughter to suffer this hardship?"
"Alright, it's not a big deal, we're just going to follow and take a look, just to clear things up, I'm sure the gods will give me a clean slate." Ha! Look at how righteous he sounds! However, when he saw the man's still unfriendly face, he quickly changed his tone, "Besides, aren't you here too? With you around, what do I have to fear?"
Can't help but say, this last sentence completely hit Mo Jiu You's soft spot and also satisfied the man's sense of pride. He just couldn't bear to see Xiao Liu suffer this injustice, but isn't everything still under his control?
The man who had come to his senses no longer objected, the low air pressure around him slightly converged, and he walked forward with a domineering embrace. "Aren't you leaving yet? Are you waiting for me to invite you?"
And so the farce came to an end. As they watched the few people leave, the crowd whispered among themselves, occasionally shaking their heads.
Even if she was taken away, Qing Kuang remained calm and unruffled. On the other hand, the woman in white was staring resentfully in the direction where Qing Kuang was, it seemed that she had not expected to fail to catch the fox but instead got a handful of trouble, it could only be said that ugly people are prone to making mistakes!
All the way, the five gods carefully sized up the man behind them, but they couldn't figure out what kind of person he was. So in terms of their attitude towards him, they naturally became much more polite and respectfully invited him into the house before retreating. Now things were even more mysterious than before, and this was something that had to be reported.
Waiting until everyone had left, Qing Kuang finally composed himself and thought deeply about the situation in front of him.
"What's on your mind? It's not like it's a difficult matter." He picked her up, and Mo Jiu lay down sideways on the couch.
"Of course it's not a big deal, but I have to get myself out of this mess after all, since I still need to hang around here for a while!" Her slender hand drew circles on the man's chest as she replied with a careless tone.
"Then just push everything onto that human." Stole a glance, Mo Jiu Yu's eyes sparkled with a hint of a smile as he gazed at the person in front of him. He was completely indifferent to whether this insignificant human lived or died.
"Now the situation is tense, I think it's better not to make any rash moves for now, it's best to return the White Spirit Wall first." The two of them were biting and teasing each other, playing happily, clearly neither of them took the matter seriously.
"Alright, I'll return that broken thing when I have time, but how are you going to thank me?" The mischievous smile pinched the slender waist of Qingchuang, and Mo Jiu smiled triumphantly.
"Alright, stop messing around, you still want to make progress, huh?" Struggling to get up, but only for a moment before being turned over and pressed down.
"Come on, come on..." With a big hand, he teased the ticklish spot, looking at those shining eyes, Mo Jue sealed it with a kiss, his breathing getting heavier.
The laughter in the house continued, but this night had too many possibilities. When something unusual happened, only Mo Jue's eyes flashed with red light, and in the end, he was comforting the person in his arms, watching as his precious little girl fell asleep again.
It wasn't until the second day that dawn broke, and outside there was a tendency for wind and rain to come. Oblivious to everything outside, he was drowsy and yawning.
Looking at those watery red eyes, Mo Jiuu rubbed that soft hair, but just thinking about what he had discovered last night, he still gave Qing Kuang a wake-up call. "Girlie, that woman is dead, she was silenced by someone last night!"
The action in her hand paused, and she was completely awake. Her mind quickly started racing. Is the person dead? Then the crime would fall on her head. Who did it? What's the motive? Was it aimed at her? Could it be someone from before seeking revenge? Or a vendetta? Whatever the truth of the matter, it had brought her trouble to some extent.
"Don't worry, no matter what, I'm here for you, right?" He picked her up and carried her on his back, Mō Kyū Yū gazed intently at those red eyes, truly beautiful no matter how he looked!
"Alright, put me down first~" All the worries in her heart were chased away, and she smiled with a hint of mischief as she rewarded him with a kiss on his thin lips.
As soon as the two of them were dressed and had eaten, someone knocked on the door. Of course, the attitude was no longer as respectful as before. "Hey, you guys come out quickly, someone wants to ask you questions!"
They exchanged a glance, and with a light stride, he stepped out of the door. The person who was originally impatient was stared at by Mo Jiu's eyes, and they obediently led the way in front, not daring to show any dissatisfaction.
Walking on the road, looking at the pointing and staring of passersby, she maintained a unified expression all along, but if it weren't for her holding him back, the man beside her would have ruined everything in front of them.
Until the mechanism opened, a grand hall that had never been seen before stood in front of him, and Qing Kuang only then became fully alert.
Before my eyes, apart from the five divine envoys yesterday, there was a dead body lying on the ground. Today, several more people appeared before me, but they didn't wear white cloaks like those five divine envoys; instead, their anger and hatred made me feel even more shocked and amazed.
"You're the one who stole the White Spirit Wall, and is this person on the ground the one you killed? You're so ruthless and cruel, it's unforgivable! Confess quickly! Have you killed others too?" The man sitting in the middle looked to be only in his forties, but there was a hint of familiarity around his eyebrows that made people completely bewildered by his words.
But she was always used to seeing big scenes and being reckless, how could she be intimidated by the pressure in front of her? Compared to the pressure, who is a match for her husband?
"This thing can be eaten casually, but words can't be spoken casually. Everything must be based on evidence, did you all see me kill someone?" Walking to the side of the corpse, she glanced at it lightly and crazily for a moment, if not for being in public view, in order to avoid trouble, she really wanted to carefully examine it again.
"Hum! Who else could it be but you? With a guilty conscience, you've even killed the only person who could identify you. Isn't that just to eliminate any evidence?"
"This is not right, I'm not a fool, at this critical moment, killing people would be equivalent to burning oneself. You are all experienced people, can't you see through these small tricks?" The sarcastic remarks made everyone's face change, and the atmosphere in the entire hall dropped to freezing point instantly.
"Perhaps you've taken advantage of this point and are doing the opposite? Quickly, say it, is White Lingbei stolen by you, and was the person also killed by you? Is there anyone else who has suffered at your hands?" The interrogation had reached this point, and the middle-aged man in front had already harbored murderous intentions. His poor child, his most excellent child, had died so miserably. No matter who the murderer was, he would rather mistakenly kill a thousand people than let one go unpunished!
"I'm saying the same thing, everything needs evidence. If this was really done by me, I wouldn't say another word and would admit it immediately! However, the real culprit is clearly someone else. So don't even think about pinning this on me! Framing me? Forcing a confession? Sorry, I won't be able to do that!"
For a moment, the arrogant words made everyone in the grand hall look at each other in dismay. By the time the killing intent spread, it was all blocked by Mo Jiu You and doubled back.
At this moment, a mysterious figure flashed across the sky, targeting the grand hall where Qing Kuang was located.
