Mozun and his Master Shizun

Chapter 59 You are not me

"I reject."

Xu Shumo answered decisively without any hesitation.

The pale golden flame paused for a second, Qu Ning's face remained unchanged, but he asked indifferently, "Why?"

"Why?" Xu Shumo was the one who was confused, "I am Xu Shumo and you are Qu Ning. Even if the reincarnation you said is true, we are two irrelevant people. Why should I become you?" ?”

Hearing this, Qu Ning chuckled and said, "With your current strength, you can't compete with Mu Juanshu. If you don't accept my memory, within ten strokes, you will be killed by him."

Xu Shumo said: "That's because my skills are inferior to others, there is no way."

Qu Ning was stunned for the first time, and the smile on his face gradually faded, he paused for a moment before saying: "I heard you ask just now, it seems that Mu Juanshu's body was taken away by someone, this person you know?"

"It's my apprentice," Xu Shumo said with a generous expression, "and also my Taoist companion."

There was a look of surprise on Qu Ning's face for a moment, and then it was replaced by a deeper smile:

"If you refuse my memory inheritance and die under Mu Juanshu's hands... I think you and that person may never have a chance to meet."

Xu Shumo's face finally showed a look of emotion, he looked deeply into Qu Ning's eyes, and Qu Ning also let him look at him calmly.

After a while, Xu Shumo withdrew his gaze and returned to his previous indifferent appearance.

"I reject."

Qu Ning's smile froze on his face, as if he didn't expect him to say that at all.

"You have to think about it," Qu Ning no longer smiled, and his eyes revealed a deeper light, "If you refuse..."

"I can't find a reason to accept it." Xu Shumo interrupted him, "Even if I choose to accept your memory inheritance for Yan Xiao, the person who will face him in the future will only be Qu Ning instead of Xu Shumo, so even Might as well..."

He didn't say any more, but Qu Ning already understood what he meant.

Xu Shumo didn't wait for Qu Ning to speak again, and said bluntly: "I am Xu Shumo, maybe it has something to do with you, Qu Ning, but after all, you are you and I am me. If I were to abandon myself and accept your inheritance, I would not Agree. Besides, you probably won't last long in this hallucination space, and I will continue to fight against Mu Juanshu."

After all, he turned around and was about to leave.

"stop."

Qu Ning's cold and deep voice sounded from behind him.

"You know, your life wasn't yours from the very beginning." Qu Ning had walked behind him at some point, and put a hand on Xu Shumo's shoulder, "When I fell a thousand years ago, Your birth is already in my plan. Say you are you..."

Qu Ning sneered and said, "Why do you think you were born under the gate of the Arctic Palace? Why do you think you can enter the country so quickly, and the whole Arctic Palace responds to your needs?"

Xu Shumo turned his head abruptly, and met Qu Ning's eyes.

"This is a plan that has been planned long ago!" Qu Ning's eyes showed a cold light, "From the very beginning, you were destined to be the body that I reincarnate to attach to! Now that Mu Juanshu has made a comeback, it is time for me to Back in place!"

"But now, you have nothing to do." Xu Shumo's attitude was still calm, "If you had a way to get my current body, you wouldn't tell me so much."

"Listen well, if you don't give me your body, with Mu Juanshu alone, the bloodbath of the cultivation world is not just talk!" Qu Ning showed an eager look on his face, and his words were resounding, "As a cultivator How can a person like this disregard the world and the common people for his own selfish desires!"

Xu Shumo was silent for a moment before saying:

"I have seen some of your memories before, by chance and coincidence."

Qu Ning's heart sank suddenly, and he was about to say something.Xu Shumo's eyes were like two sharp arrows, as if he wanted to see directly into the heart of the person in front of him.

"The so-called dispute between the two worlds... actually never existed from the very beginning," Xu Shumo paused, "Mu Juanshu has always wanted to seek revenge from you alone, didn't he?"

"you……"

Qu Ning wanted to say something more, but the color of the pale golden flame that was still dancing at his fingertips gradually faded, turning into a cold and pale dead flame, and the space that isolated the two of them from the outside world also faded little by little. , collapse.

Xu Shumo reached out and broke Qu Ning's hand on his shoulder, and said in a low voice:

"You should have died... 1000 years ago."

As soon as the words fell, the pale golden space around the two of them lost all light in an instant, and Qu Ning's last hideous face disappeared as the surrounding space collapsed.

They seem to have talked for a long time in the space, but outside, it was just a blink of an eye.

In Mu Juanshu's eyes, the second after Wanxianggui and Yishui Elegy's swords collided with each other, the pale golden light suddenly disappeared from the opponent's sword, and the long sword that was originally like a pool of autumn water immediately became rusty. It was mottled, and then it turned into two pieces from a break!

Even before he himself could react, Yi Shui's Elegy hit Xu Shumo's chest without hesitation, nailing the latter heavily from mid-air all the way to the sword discussion platform below.

"Junior Brother Xu!"

"you!"

Until he landed firmly on the ground, Mu Juanshu didn't realize what happened just now.On the contrary, Xu Shumo, although half of his body was stained with blood and was nailed to the ground by the giant sword Yishui Elegy in an extremely tragic appearance, the expression on his face was still extremely indifferent.

"You are not Qu Ning."

Mu Juanshu walked up to him, looked at the two pieces of everything that had been broken into one, and realized it in his heart.

Xu Shumo smiled slightly, but he didn't want to affect the wound on his chest, and the blood gushed out from his lips again.

The sword pierced his ribs just now and hurt his heart, and now he is just relying on his previous cultivation to hold on to the last moment.

There was obvious unbearable expression on Mu Juanshu's face, and he took a deep breath before pulling out the sad song of Yi Shui that had penetrated Xu Shumo's chest.

The moment the giant sword was separated from the body, large swathes of blood gushed out from the wound on his chest, and in the blink of an eye, Qu Ning's clothes were soaked in red, and under the cover of dark clouds all over the sky, it was extremely gorgeous.

Mu Juanshu turned his head away from looking at him, but his frown and tense back all revealed his restless mood at this moment.

"Where's Qu Ning?"

"Dead." Xu Shumo struggled to speak, his voice hoarse like a broken bellows, mixed with a few mouthfuls of blood.

"Dead..." Mu Juanshu subconsciously repeated, "Why did he die?"

He didn't know who he was asking these words, but Zhou Shuchen over there suddenly fell to his knees and burst into tears.

"Master Qu Ning...the disciple is ashamed..."

Xu Shumo turned his head sideways, his eyes flicked lightly on him, but he didn't say anything after all.

On the other side, Tan Shuci, Bai Shuqi and Li Shuqi held swords in their hands at the same time, and stabbed at Mu Juanshu.

Mu Juanshu lowered his head, still in the same dazed look just now, without even thinking about it, with a wave of his sleeves, he knocked them aside.

"I'm dead..."

The incomparably majestic spiritual pressure filled the space between the heaven and the earth instantly like a tornado, and the wind howled and flew the sand and rocks. Mu Juanshu suddenly raised his head and shouted to the sky of lightning and thunder:

"Qu Ning, why... why don't you let me kill you with my own hands!"

"I waited for 1000 years... a whole 1000 years, how did I wait for this result! You are already dead!"

The thunder in the sky seemed to be responding to the Demon Lord's fury, but no one could respond to his state of mind at this time.

He is located in the center of the storm, but he is also isolated from everything in the world. From then on, no one or anything can touch his heartstrings.

Mu Juanshu raised his head and stared blankly at the sky, but his whole body seemed to be completely taken out, he fell backwards, and fell right on Xu Shumo's side.

The two stood head to shoulder, shoulder to shoulder, in an extremely intimate pose.

After a while, Mu Juanshu suddenly said:

"The person who took my body before is your beloved."

Xu Shumo suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Mu Juanshu, who was also looking at him.

"……Yes."

"Forget it," Mu Juanshu's voice suddenly became very soft and gentle, "I'll take it as a good thing, or maybe a bad thing... who knows?"

Low laughter came from the ear, the laughter harmonized with the endless thunder in the sky, it was very noisy, and it made people feel sad for no reason.

Before Xu Shumo understood what he wanted to do, Mu Juanshu closed his eyes again and stopped making any sound.

A downpour finally fell.

Bean-sized raindrops hit the ground, and after a while, small puddles formed around.Xu Shumo was half-drenched in the rain and half-immersed in the water. The wet and cold feeling seemed to be penetrating into the marrow of his bones, taking away the last bit of heat from his body.

He sighed, thinking that this was really indecent.

His hand suddenly fell into a warm palm, and then he was hugged tightly by the same hot embrace.

Xu Shumo barely opened his eyes, and saw a pair of extremely familiar black eyes through the blood and rain in front of him.

There were too many overflowing emotions accumulated in those eyes, Xu Shumo was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, he said with some difficulty:

"Yan Xiao?"

The other party hugged him even tighter, and a steady stream of spiritual power was coming from his palm, wanting to help Xu Shumo repair the damage on his body.

"It's useless," Xu Shumo took a deep breath, pressed it against Yan Xiao's ear, and said in a very soft and slow voice, "I'm already a mortal, but it's just a waste of effort."

Hearing Yan Xiao's voice choked to the point of being speechless, he wanted to reach out and pat the little apprentice to comfort him, but he couldn't exert any strength, so he could only give up.

"I'm... very happy to see you at the end." Xu Shumo felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier. He half closed his eyes, raised his head slightly, and said word by word in Yan Xiao's ear: "I have something else to do. , I don’t know if you want it or not.”

Yan Xiao cried until he could only breathe in, then nodded desperately, and hugged Xu Shumo even tighter.

"The last time you and I got married was hasty and chaotic, and the most inappropriate thing was that we didn't have any sincerity." Speaking of this, Xu Shumo actually smiled softly, which made Yan Xiao cry even louder, "Now, I Although the clothes are neither fish nor fowl, they can barely be regarded as red clothes..." When his shoulders moved slightly, his blood-stained and muddy sleeves trembled, "Yan Xiao, are you willing to become a Taoist companion with me, and from now on Life after life, never abandon each other?"

The sound of rain was endless, even in the small world where the two of them hugged each other tightly, Xu Shumo's sighing voice seemed to be washed away by the rain at any time.

But in Yan Xiao's ears, it was incomparably thunderous.

"I..." Yan Xiao took a big breath, the lack of oxygen made him unable to connect his words, "I am...willing to."

"So... very good." Xu Shumo let out a breath slowly and smiled slightly.

After waiting for a while, Yan Xiao couldn't wait for his voice, and his heart sank.He was stunned for a long time before reaching out tremblingly to press Xu Shumo's pulse.

There is no trace of cultivation in the meridians, and there is no sign of life.

At this moment, Zhou Shuchen and the others had already surrounded him, but Yan Xiao didn't take his eyes off Xu Shumo. He gently hugged Xu Shumo in his arms, and said in a low voice:

"Master, don't worry, this apprentice will heal your injuries right away."

However, no matter how much spiritual power was poured into Xu Shumo's meridians, it disappeared as silently as a mud cow entered the sea, and that person's body showed no sign of improvement.

The six people from Beiji Peak wanted to dissuade them, but seeing Yan Xiao's crazy appearance, they couldn't say anything when it came to their lips.

Yan Xiao just didn't believe in evil. With trembling hands, he laid Xu Shumo flat on the ground, and even tried more than a dozen ways to convey spiritual power to Xu Shumo, but all of them failed without accident.

"There is a way, there must be a way," Yan Xiao's voice was trembling, "Master, wait a minute, I'll be right away, I'll be right away..."

"Yan Xiao, stop it." Li Shuqi couldn't stand it, and tried to persuade her with tears in her eyes, "Your master has already gone."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Yan Xiao yelled angrily, "What are you, how dare you curse him!"

The six Beibei boys shook their heads and stopped talking, just stood quietly in the rain, watching Yan Xiao anxiously and desperately doing futile work.

"Little Swallow, stop it."

The system, which had been silent for a long time, finally came online, "Your master has gone."

"Impossible!" Yan Xiao denied it straight away, "My master has a high cultivation base, how could it be easy... easy..."

Suddenly, endless chill and sadness welled up in his heart, Yan Xiao sat on the ground blankly as if struck by lightning, unable to say a word.

A flash of lightning suddenly flashed across the sky, illuminating everything around them, as well as Xu Shumo's face.

Yan Xiao's out-of-focus eyes fell on Xu Shumo's face. Although the face was still stained with blood and mud, the facial features were stretched and peaceful, as if he had fallen into a peaceful and long dream.

"Master...Master, he...really..."

The system said in a low voice: "Sorrow and change."

Yan Xiao didn't answer it, and the water jet fell in strands from his hair and clothes, but he didn't seem to notice it, and only gently brushed Xu Shumo's face with his trembling hands, gently wiping away the blood for him.

"Master has a slight obsession with cleanliness," Yan Xiao said in a low voice, "Although he didn't say anything about it on the surface, he must be disgusted with it in his heart."

"But..." Yan Xiao's hands had wiped off the last bit of blood on Xu Shumo's face, "It's all like this, why...why..."

"Master, why don't you come and scold me!"

Yan Xiao raised his head violently, his tragic accusation echoed for a long time in the rainy sky, the changing color of the wind and clouds, lightning and thunder were not enough to compare with the eventuality, because it would only tear the heart, crush the liver and intestines , the bones of the whole body will be broken every inch, and the whole life will be burned...

Extreme pain.
