Morning Star

Chapter 386: Yuxin Pill and Yuling Pill

"Okay, I've already said that I've let it go." Xiao Xiao took a deep breath, "The most important thing now is not to think about this, but to think about how to save my father."

After a pause, he looked at Chujiu and said, "I heard that you were injured by a hostage pretending to be my father? You are so afraid of hurting someone, what was the situation like at that time?"

As Xiao Xiao finished speaking, Mo Xinglan's eyes gently fell on Chujiu.

Chujiu thought about it and smiled nonchalantly: "Of course it hurts. But you also know that I don't care about anything when I get excited. When I was attacked, I was so angry that I almost exploded. How could I remember whether it hurts or not? I killed the pretender with one punch."

"What happened next? I heard you killed Xu Lian?"

"that is because……"

So Chujiu told Xiaoxiao what happened at that time.

Xiao Xiao said sadly after hearing this: "What about you now? Are you still sad?"

Chujiu shook his head: "Being sad can change anything? Besides, Xiaoluo told me not to be sad. She said she just fell asleep."

Then he laughed: "What a silly thing to say, isn't it?"

"..."

Xiao Xiao's lips trembled but he didn't say anything.

She remembered that she had said the same thing to Chujiu when she left this world in her previous life.

She thought she could understand Luluo's feelings at the time, and after a moment's hesitation she explained: "I know you will be sad, but I don't want to see you trapped in it. I hope you can get out of it soon."

Chujiu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and the corners of her lips curled up: "I know. So I walked out, I have a good life, and I take good care of myself."

"Well, that's good. You didn't let my efforts go to waste." Xiao Xiao finally smiled.

The two chatted for a long time, and Mo Xinglan on the side was like air.

He lay on the guardrail with his eyes closed. He seemed to be sleeping but he was actually alert.

Chujiu and Xiaoxiao didn't end their chat until Alger, who was looking for Xiaoxiao, showed up.

Xiao Xiao was dragged back by Alger because her wounds had not healed yet and he happened to see a wine pot on the side. Worried that Xiao Xiao had drunk alcohol, Alger refused to listen to Xiao Xiao's explanation and insisted on dragging her back to the house to rest. Xiao Xiao had no choice but to say goodbye to Chujiu.

Chujiu waved in the direction where Xiao Xiao and Alger left, then turned around and looked at Mo Xinglan.

At this time, Mo Xinglan had already sat up and was leaning against the pillar of the corridor.

She leaned over him and rubbed his chest: "Xingxing, why didn't you say anything just now?"

"What should I say?" Did they give him a chance to interrupt?

The two of them were having a great time chatting, and he was so bored that he almost fell asleep.

Seeing that he was speechless, Chujiu pursed her lips, buried her head in his arms and smiled secretly.

He was a man of few words to begin with, and when he met her and Xiao Xiao, two talkative people, how could he have a chance to interrupt?

After resting for a while, they stood up and prepared to leave, but they met Chu Wenxuan.

"Xiaojiu?" Chu Wenxuan looked Chujiu up and down, "How is your injury?"

"It's been a long time since I got here." Chujiu grinned, "But, brother, why are you here?"

"I..." Chu Wenxuan was stunned and glanced behind her and Mo Xinglan.

Seeing those wine jugs, he became worried: "Have you been drinking?"

After saying that, he looked at Mo Xinglan with a scrutinizing gaze.

Will he agree?

Chujiu shook his head: "That wine is not mine, it belongs to Xiao..."

He stopped talking before he finished speaking, and the look in Chujiu's eyes gradually became meaningful as he looked at Chu Wenxuan.

"Brother, you are not here to see anyone, are you?"

Chu Wenxuan was stunned for a moment, raised his hand to his lips and coughed lightly: "Well, I heard you were here, so I came to see you."

"Oh - look at me -" She nodded as if she understood, dragging out the last syllable.

After she said this, Chu Wenxuan felt guilty.

Chujiu didn't point it out, but his eyes rolled and a light bulb went off in his head.

Then he sighed, looking worried and distressed.

When Chu Wenxuan saw her like this, he had a bad feeling and immediately felt that something bad had happened.

"What's wrong with your expression?"

"Alas..." Chujiu sighed repeatedly and was not in a hurry to answer him.

Mo Xinglan's face remained calm.

But Chu Wenxuan became more and more anxious.

Finally, she pointed to the wine beside her and said, "Xiao Xiao was here just now. When Xingxing and I came here, Xiao Xiao was already drunk and talking nonsense."

"She's drunk?" Chu Wenxuan was shocked. "Where is she now?"

"She was taken away by her brother." Chujiu twisted her face. That expression seemed to say: Xiao Xiao's injury was getting worse and worse.

After listening to this, Chu Wenxuan walked past Chu Jiu and Mo Xinglan and headed towards Xiao Xiao's room.

"With what identity are you going to see her now?" Chujiu turned around and shouted at Chu Wenxuan's back.

Chu Wenxuan paused but did not turn his head, his hands hanging by his sides were clenched tightly.

Chujiu finally looked serious: "She said that she can no longer like anyone except you. She said that she has let it go and will not bother you anymore."

"Brother, do you remember what mother once said?"

She took a deep breath and said, "My mother said that if you meet someone you like, don't hide it in your heart, you have to speak it out. This kind of thing, only if you speak it out, that person will know. Liking someone, loving someone is a very beautiful thing, don't let it become a painful past. If you don't love someone, if you don't have that person in your heart, you must make it clear, otherwise it will be a torture for you and that person."

After a pause, he said earnestly: "Brother, don't wait until the person you love is gone before you regret it. By then it will be too late. No matter how much you regret, you can't go back to the past."

Chu Wenxuan just stood there without looking back or saying anything, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Mo Xinglan lowered his eyes and said, "Jiu'er, let's go back."

"Think about it yourself."

After saying that, she turned around and faced Mo Xinglan, raising her hands as if asking him to hug her.

Mo Xinglan was stunned for a moment, then curled his lips, bent his waist and picked her up.

Along the way, Chujiu buried his head in his chest, closed his eyes and didn't say a word.

Even after returning to the bedroom, she still held Mo Xinglan in her arms and refused to let go.

Mo Xinglan gently rubbed her head: "Are you in a bad mood?"

After a long while, she said in a muffled voice: "I was wrong before, I'm sorry."

"...Idiot, why are you saying sorry? Aren't you already here now?" He gently tapped her forehead.

Chujiu nodded and buried his head deeper, tightening his arms around his waist.

Mo Xinglan frowned and held her hand with his backhand: "Be gentle."

This idiot loses his sense of propriety when he gets proud of himself.

"Oh, sorry." Chujiu quickly let go, feeling a little embarrassed.

This bad habit of getting carried away when you are too proud must be changed. Otherwise, the stars will be destroyed by me sooner or later.

……

The number of injured people has gradually decreased during these days, and everyone has recovered and returned to their respective positions.

Some new disciples who came to the Demon Realm were a little worried when they first learned that there were disciples from the Mohist School here, but after hearing the whole story, they quickly started fighting.

The relationship between the two families is good, and it is a rare opportunity to meet in the same place. In the Demon Realm, everyone will eventually feel a sense of belonging.

After Chu Congnan woke up, he rested for a while and discussed the next steps with Elder Qi and Elder Liu of the Mohist School.

Mo Xinglan had already thought of what to do next during the time when everyone was recuperating, so all that was needed was for Elder Qi and Elder Liu to tell Chu Congnan about the plan.

The spies in Hualing reported that Mo Hengsong had basically taken control of all the practitioners in Hualing. The people who helped Mo Hengsong were well hidden, so they had not been found out yet.

Hualing is too vast, and there are many cultivators. Moreover, the battlefield will still be in Hualing, and a head-on confrontation will inevitably be another battle between humans and demons.

Not only Chu Congnan and Elder Qi, but also Chu Jiu couldn't bear to see such a scene. Mo Xinglan didn't care, but who made him listen to Chu Jiu.

After discussion, they decided to capture the leader first and start directly with Mo Hengsong and the Mo family.

At that time, the troops will be divided into four groups. Alger and Chu Wenxuan will lead the team to deal with the other controlled families, Chu Congnan and Xiang Tingqin will secretly lead the team to rescue people, Wu Li and Fang Hao will lead the team to secretly suppress the Mo family, and Mo Xinglan will lead the Mo family army to confront Mo Hengsong head-on.

The war was decided in three months.

After listening to Mo Xinglan's explanation, Chujiu felt that this was the best way. When he nodded, he suddenly thought of the elixir he had stolen from the Xu family.

He took out two wooden boxes and handed them to Mo Xinglan: "I stole these when I sneaked into the Xu family. The patriarch of the Xu family said that they contain the Yu Xin Dan and Yu Ling Dan."

"When did you sneak into the Xu family? Are you injured?" Mo Xinglan paused as he took the wooden box, his face showing worry.

Since Chujiu returned safely after sneaking into the Xu family, most people didn't take it to heart, so no one told Mo Xinglan.

Chujiu waved his hand and said, "No, I'm very careful. Besides, I've learned spatial isolation better than anyone else. You can't find me if you don't try to sense me. If you don't believe me, ask the Demon Feather Army following me. They can testify for me."

She was very afraid of death, so of course she learned the skills of escape better than anyone else.

Mo Xinglan also thought of this and breathed a sigh of relief. He lowered his eyes and carefully observed the pill in his hand.

It's true that there's his blood in it, and other spiritual medicines are also added in.

"How is it, have you found anything?" Chujiu looked at him and then at the pill in his hand.

Mo Xinglan didn't answer. He smelled the pill for a while and then looked at it in thought.

After asking this question, Chujiu stopped talking and waited quietly.

After a moment, Mo Xinglan raised his eyes suddenly, and a sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

"Did you find anything?" As soon as Chujiu saw his expression, he knew what he had seen.

Mo Xinglan turned his head and picked up the red Yu Xin Dan and explained to Chu Jiu: "Let's talk about the Yu Xin Dan first."

“Yeah, okay.” Chujiu immediately sat up straight and listened attentively.

"Anyone who takes the Yuxin Pill will have their mind controlled without knowing it."

“Didn’t they say that the Yuxin Pill can quickly improve one’s cultivation?” Chujiu was puzzled.

Mo Xinglan smiled without saying anything, his eyes gently falling on her.

Chujiu wondered why he was looking at her like that. Was there something else he hadn't expected?

Suddenly a thought flashed through my mind.
