Chapter 23: Will He Die?

  Just as Mo Mo was anxiously searching, Qian Jue Se and Lian Yue, who had come to rescue her one after another, were all bewildered by the illusion and fell into the hands of Tian Xia Gong.

  In the underground room over ten meters high, a girl wearing a cloak looked at Li Wuye who had already been hung up. Black hair stuck to her face, sharp eyes narrowed, looking at the person in front of her.

  "Mozhu shi, I'm leaving this person to you, hoping you'll get some useful information out of him." The girl turned around and kicked the silver plate, stepping on it as she flew out of the dungeon.

  "Li Wuye? So that's what you look like." Mo Tian lifted Li Wuye's chin, facing his own face. He slightly hooked the corner of his mouth, "Speak! What's your purpose in approaching Mo Mo?"

  "I love her" Li Wu Ye gazed through the threads of silk at the rather cold man in front of him, looking at someone who should have long been dead.

  "Hmph, did you think I'd fall for that too?!" Mo Tian withdrew his hand and swept a glance at Li Wuye, picking up a long cowhide whip. With a forceful crack, a bloody mark immediately rolled across Li Wuye's honey-colored skin. Li Wuye, who had refused to make a sound all along, clenched his lips tightly shut and closed his eyes, waiting for the next lash to come.

  "What's your purpose in approaching Mo Mo?" A whip lashed out and struck Li Wuye's chest.

  "Why deceive her? It's already been half a month now, and you're still alive and well. You've already left Mo Mo far behind..." Another whip was swung out.

  "How come you're not dead yet?!" Mo Tian's whip flew up and down, half an hour later Li Wuye's body was covered in wounds, his bloody sweat-soaked head stuck to his cheek.

  "Li Wuye, I warn you, don't get close to Mo Mo, or else you'll regret it!" Just as Mo Tian was about to turn around and leave, he heard the person behind him say "Xuan Mo's Technique".

  Li Wuye successfully stopped Mo Tian's footsteps. He waved his hand to let the unrelated people leave. "Speak," Mo Tian turned around.

  "I know the Xuanmo technique" Li Wuye laboriously lifted his head and looked at Mo Tian.

  "Do you also know the use of the soul-receiving vessel?" Mo Tian put down the rope that was suspending Li Wu Ye in mid-air. He looked at the person who had fallen to the ground and sat down on a chair beside him.

  "It's okay." He weakly closed his eyes and leaned against the wall.

  "How did you know? Have you read the last page of 'The Demise of Love'?" Mo Tian leaned forward.

  "No. My master said so. He also said that the Xuanmo technique requires a medium to work. I want the Xuanmo Maze Stone, and once I get it, I'll leave her." Li Wuye opened his eyes and looked at Mo Tian, then continued speaking.

  "Hmph. As expected, you're all after the Mystic Inkstone. Let me tell you, the Mystic Ink technique isn't something just anyone can handle. At least, you certainly can't!"

  "Hmph, you want to deceive me too?" Li Wuye's mouth curled slightly at the corner.

  "Haven't you seen people with blue tears on their faces before?"

  "What?" Li Wu Ye's eyes flashed.

  "Not everyone is suitable for immortality, only those with blue tear marks can." Mo Tian stood up and pulled out the sword in his hand. Li Wuye's eyes were filled with incredulity.

  "How could I have thought of it? You know so much, you can't stay."

  It's been a long time since I used this separator for previous emotions...

  On the other side, several people in blue clothes carried Qian Jue's severely injured body back to his and Xuan Yu's dungeon. Xuan Yu wanted to go forward, but was stopped by several people.

  "Hmph, is this the general of that dynasty?" One of the azure-robed men crouched down and used his hand to lift up Qian Jue's face, tearing open the already tattered clothes. "Indeed worthy of being called a beauty, what a stunning woman" he said as he reached out to touch Qian Jue's shoulder which was covered in wounds.

  "Let him go!" Xuan Yu fiercely pounced forward, tightly protecting the already unconscious Qian Jue Se. The frivolous person was about to get angry when someone beside him slapped him, "Do you want to die? You want to keep him to threaten the emperor of the Wang Dynasty?! If you dare to touch him now, you won't be able to leave!"

  "What's going on, I'm not going to kill him!" The azure one still wouldn't give up. He stepped forward, punching and kicking, trying to pull Xuan Yu away. But suddenly the azure one fell to the ground, and a figure clad in a cloak flashed into view at the doorway.

  A calm and peaceful voice said "roll", but it scared the blue-legged creature so much that it trembled and quickly climbed up the ladder.

  The girl came down and saw Xuan Yu staring at her with a guarded expression. "It's unnecessary, Prince Loulan, now he is more important to me than you."

  "Why must he be tortured like this?" Xuan Yu's eyes were slightly red.

  "Because I want him to reveal the whereabouts of Xingyue Xuan" The girl stroked the jade pendant in her hand, gazing at the faint light seeping through the door over a zhang high, her eyes profound.

  "If he were awake, I'd advise him to suffer less!" With that, she flung out the silver plate and departed in a flash.

  Qian felt a chill on her face and opened her eyes to see Xuan Yu's tightly furrowed eyebrows, his weak smile.

  "Just tell her then." Xuan Yu held Qian Jue Se and let him get comfortable.

  "Hey, put me on the grass, I'm not a woman." Xuan Yu had no strength to struggle.

  "Don't let go!" He hugged tighter. The person in his arms stiffened.

  "Hey, teasing me for half a month is enough. Considering how I look now, just let it go." Qian Jue Se said with a helpless bitter smile.

  The night grew darker, and Mo Mo and Luo Luo, who had been chasing after them, also arrived on this day.

  Pushing open the door, Mo Mo leaned forward and felt that there was nothing under her feet. The Huanhuan behind her sprinkled something with her hand, and a fluorescent light appeared under her feet, vaguely reflecting the appearance in the darkness.

  There was nothing between the door and the ground several feet high, if you stepped out rashly, you would either die or be crippled. Mo Mo withdrew her foot and sat down at the door, looking at Luo Luo who also had a helpless expression on her face.

  "No wonder the door is locked, not to mention escaping, even if others want to rescue us, they can't get down." Mo's body slumped, her eyebrows furrowed. The golden cat beside her finished washing its face, looked at the sun that was about to set behind the mountain, stretched lazily, and then walked to the door of the underground room. It turned back to look at Mo and Luo, took a deep breath, and jumped down.

  Mo and Huanhuan hadn't even had time to call out, when they crawled to the door together, looked down, and saw that there was nothing on the fluorescent ground. Suddenly, she felt a chill on her face, the light from the basement was blocked, and a pair of silver, round eyes appeared in mid-air, staring at her. Then, she heard the sound of wings flapping. A soft body drew near, and she also saw clearly the owner of those silver eyes - a white tiger with wings.

  "Who's there?!" A low voice echoed from the basement.

  The white tiger carried the ink and fell towards the sound of human voices.

  "Who?!" After the ink fell to the ground, Mo Mo also leaned against that so-called official servant, staring at the person in the darkness.

  "Is that you, Mo?" A rustling sound came from the darkness, followed by footsteps getting closer. The sharp eyes scanned around the official's body. Mo gave Li a sacred grass seed to take, and there was a moment of silence. Was this still the same young man who had been so calm and collected? His dark blue robe was stained with blood, and his resolute face was filled with sorrow.

  "Master Li? How...?" Mo stretched out his hand to support him, but was interrupted by Li Wu Ye "Mo Master, please take Ru Yu out first, if not treated in time, I'm afraid it will be..." Li Si Xing turned around and stumbled towards the dark star, Ru Yu.

  Mo Mo and Li Si Xing together put the Star Like Rain on the rarely obedient official servant's body, carrying it out for Luo Luo to treat. Then come back again to take Mo Mo and Li Si Xing.

  "Xu Xu, do you still have that invisible powder?" Xu Xu glared at Mo Mo with her eyes, but her hands didn't stop moving, as she administered medicine to Xing Ru Yu and bandaged the wounds on her body.

  "I don't have that many! The immortal grass leaves are grown in Jiangnan, I've already used them all up"

  "So you're Guan Tong, can you take them out?" Mo Mo leaned against its neck, the white tiger raised an eyebrow looking at Li Si Xing who was heavily injured and holding the unconscious Xing Ru Yu.

  "Mojie, the official slave is a legendary ancient divine object, it's already a great blessing that it can take us out of the underground prison." Li Sihang looked at Xing Ruyu's tightly furrowed brow. "The others are also in the underground prison, in the back few rooms."

  Bai Hu, however, lowered his body beside them, and Mo Mo was extremely excited. Watching Bai Hu take Li Si Xing and Xing Ru Yu away, Mo Mo and Lian Lian got up and walked towards the prison cells in the back.

  It was also a small door with no guards or iron locks in front of it. Pushing the door open, the moonlight spilled in, but still couldn't see the people inside clearly.

  "Is anyone there? Auntie? Are you guys here?" MoMo searched for people who might appear in the darkness.

  "Is it you?"
