Originated from mountains and seas, life never ends

“…Oh my god.”

Outside the cave, 27 looked up and exclaimed.

The whole mountain began to shake violently, and various birds flew out of the forest, flapping their wings and hitting the trees, making a particularly deafening sound in the silent night. The moonlight sprinkled between the forest and the mountains, illuminating every inch of soil in the forest.

Yin Xihui staggered and was barely supported by Qiu Puryue beside him, and thanked her.

Qin Xiao rushed out of the cave without hesitation. He simply identified the direction and ran down the mountain.

While running, he met Feng Yaoshan.

Qin Xiao looked at him in surprise.

Feng Yaoshan smiled at him and said, "Listen to advice and have a full meal."

Qin Xiao: ...

But before they had taken a few steps, there was a sudden explosion behind them, and a gust of wind rushed over, knocking everyone to the ground, followed by a gust of flying sand and rocks.

Mo Hanyu raised his hand. The cold wind swept in, pressing the dust down again in an instant. The ground and treetops were covered with ice, but in an instant, the surroundings were all covered with frost.

Mo Hanyu looked back and saw that the frozen cave was exploding again, as if there was a fight, and a cloud of dirt and rocks was raised at the entrance of the cave again.

Qin Xiao paused, looked at Mo Hanyu's expression, turned his head and said to Yin Xihui: "You go down first, we will take a look here."

Yin Xihui frowned in confusion, as if he couldn't understand his intention.

"Go back and explain." Qin Xiao didn't say much and stopped behind Mo Hanyu.

Yin Xihui didn't ask any questions. He turned around and ran away, pulling Tian Miao, who was looking at Mo Hanyu hesitantly.

For some reason, No. 9 did not choose to leave, but stood still like Qin Xiao and the others.

27 paused, and finally stopped.

Qin Xiao was a little confused, but he didn't plan to ask any questions. He just looked at the cave quietly.

The earth was shaking and everything around was trembling, as if it would collapse at any time.

After an unknown amount of time, it finally stopped.

A huge black shadow appeared at the entrance of the cave, and Qiongqi walked out.

The dark golden eyes were tinged with blood, and the black claws and feathers on the wings behind were stained with dark red. Blood oozed from the hair that was saturated with blood and dripped onto the ground. It was particularly creepy in the silent night.

The black beast's wings were spread angrily, revealing its ferocious appearance, and its pair of dark golden pupils emitted a scorching light in the dark night. Just an unintentional collision of eyes could make one feel the coldness seeping into the body.

The terrifying aura poured out like a tide. The moment you were enveloped by the breath, you could feel the chill piercing your bones and the pressure penetrating your soul.

Many mountain creatures chose to kneel on the ground and show submissive behavior the moment they felt it.

Qiongqi walked out of the cave, looked at the moon hanging high in the sky, then lowered his head and saw the eye-catching white hair at a glance.

"Why don't you run?"

Qiongqi opened his mouth, revealing his sharp white teeth, and stared straight at Mo Hanyu.

"Didn't Taotie say that?"

Mo Hanyu met Qiongqi's gaze.

It was strange, he should have felt scared, but for some reason, his heart did not tremble with fear. He met Qiongqi's gaze and spoke.

"I saw they didn't leave, so I stayed."

Mo Hanyu said, pointing to numbers 27 and 9.

27: ...

You were the ones who stopped first, okay?!

Facing 27's incredulous gaze, Mo Hanyu remained calm and composed.

Qin Xiao glanced at him.

27 saw Qiongqi turned his head and was about to say something with a smile, but No. 9 next to him suddenly turned his head and pointed at him.

It happened in an instant. 27 didn't even feel anything unusual. His eyes had lost all color, his consciousness disappeared instantly, and he collapsed to the ground.

After No. 9 finished, he turned his gaze to Qin Xiao.

Qin Xiao's eyes fixed and he took a half step back.

He sensed danger from him.

No. 9's aura changed, and visible black energy was emanating from him. Not only that, his standing posture also changed unconsciously, as if he had a new soul.

...No, that's it.

Qin Xiao's eyes were red. He couldn't see the soul of No. 9, and couldn't even see his whole appearance. The powerful black energy spread all around. Qin Xiao looked up, but still couldn't see his whole appearance. After a few moments, he saw this person raised his finger towards him.

Qin Xiao instinctively wanted to resist, but he was unable to move. He could only watch the black gas getting closer and closer. He felt as if he was fixed to the ground and time seemed to slow down.

A chill came over me, interrupting the black energy.

Mo Hanyu stretched out his hand and stood in front of Qin Xiao, allowing the black energy to dissipate.

The meal at "No. 9" seemed a little unexpected.

Mo Hanyu was also stunned. He didn't expect that he could succeed.

Although a bit tired.

Mo Hanyu rubbed his sore wrist, raised his eyebrows, and looked at "No. 9" unkindly: "Who are you?"

"You have indeed taken back your power." "No. 9" spoke, but his voice became hoarse and vague, as if it passed through a huge valley, echoed several times in the air, and finally entered the ears of everyone.

"I knew you were on this kid!" Qiongqi bared his teeth and showed an expected smile.

"Zhu Yin."

Hearing this name, Qin Xiao's eyes fixed, and the red color in his eyes instantly dissipated.

When Mo Hanyu heard the name, he didn't react and still frowned.

"You have a very keen sense of smell." Zhu Yin glanced at him indifferently, "Did you kill all those humans?"

When Qiongqi heard this, his face darkened: "What else? This is really disgusting."

They communicated in that strange language throughout the whole process, but Mo Hanyu didn't feel anything wrong. His brain naturally translated their language into words that he could understand.

"Why are you on this human?" Qiongqi thought of something and asked, while looking around at No. 9, "Is there anything special about him?"

Zhu Yin didn't say anything. She lifted her hair and pulled off the bandage, revealing her other eye.

Qiongqi and Qin Xiao couldn't help but be stunned.

"...Born with Yin-Yang pupils?"

The eye that No. 9 had been covering was completely different from a normal person's eyes. The area where the white of the eye should be was rendered in ink, and the pupil was a strange white, which was completely the opposite of the color of the other eye.

"He is quite special, with only one mutated eye." Zhu Yin said calmly, loosening her hair. "My power is weakening day by day, and I can't even maintain my own form. The human soul sea helps with recuperation... He is the first human who can see me."

"So you chose him?" Qiongqi raised his eyebrows.

"No, he chose me." Zhu Yin said calmly, "He wanted to save a human that day, but he was only 4 years old and didn't have enough strength. I saw that he was kind-hearted and brave despite his young age, so I helped him."

"I didn't show up, but he saw me. He found out that I was in a trance and offered to help me... I slept in his body for several years until today when I felt a familiar breath and woke up."

Having said that, he glanced at Qiongqi.

"Your desire to kill is still that strong."

Qiongqi sneered: "That's what they deserve. It was nothing to begin with, but they had to find something to make me unhappy..."

"If you kill them, what will happen to the remaining humans?"

"What else can we do? Let them go back to where they came from." Qiongqi said coldly, "I have killed all the people inside. Don't tell me they can continue to do this without a leader."

"That's true." Zhu Yin turned to look at Qin Xiao, "You have the scent of an old friend."

Qin Xiao was stunned, and before he could say anything, a figure emerged from behind him.

"Zhu Yin, long time no see."

Before the figure appeared, dark clouds gathered in the sky, lightning flashed, and heavy rain fell in an instant.

Everyone who was caught off guard and drenched thoroughly: …

Zhu Yin glanced at the visitor, who scratched his head in embarrassment and waved his hand, and the rainstorm stopped abruptly.

"Sorry, I forgot hahaha..."

Ji Meng scratched his head and laughed.

Zhu Yin looked indifferent, Qiongqi was holding back something and closed his eyes.

Qin Xiao glanced at this god who hadn't spoken for half a year, silently took a step back, and wanted to leave.

Although he originally wanted to ask Zhu Yin to help unlock the seal, but hearing what he said, it seemed that he was very weak, and it was obviously not appropriate to ask again under such circumstances.

Unexpectedly, just as Qin Xiao was about to turn around and leave, Zhu Yin suddenly looked over.

"You want me to help you break the seal?"

Qin Xiao paused and looked at him.

Mo Hanyu looked at Qin Xiao.

"...Yes." Qin Xiao hesitated for a moment, but still nodded. In his opinion, lying in front of Zhu Yin was not a wise choice.

Besides, he did have this plan at the beginning.

"Number 9" looked at Qin Xiao with his dark pupils. Zhu Yin half-closed his eyelids, his eyes were deep, and he seemed to be thinking about something.

In an instant, he laughed.

"I see... I was wondering."

Qin Xiao was puzzled and was still thinking about what he meant when suddenly, a white light flashed before his eyes and he lost consciousness and fell down.

Mo Hanyu was paying attention to this side. When he saw Qin Xiao was about to fall, he immediately turned around and caught him.

"What did you do to him?" Mo Hanyu supported Qin Xiao, knelt on one knee, put his neck on his leg, and looked at Zhu Yin.

"Don't get excited, I just agreed to his request." Zhu Yin met Mo Hanyu's gaze and seemed to smile, "You have to be careful. If his memory is unlocked, you will be in big trouble."

Mo Hanyu was puzzled: "What?"

Zhu Yin ignored his question and said, "Tell him that there are conditions for me to help him unlock the seal. Don't do anything to the child—and you can't do that either."

Zhu Yin said, looking at Mo Hanyu: "There seems to be some conflict between you, but I hope you don't make enemies with this child. This is my condition."

"But you lifted the seal on Xiao, what does it have to do with me? I haven't received any favor from you, why should I agree to your conditions." Mo Hanyu frowned.

"Of course you can refuse." Zhu Yin was not angry, and even laughed, "It's your freedom."

Although he said that, Mo Hanyu always felt that he was up to something bad when he looked at his expression, as if he would do something bad if he didn't agree.

Mo Hanyu had no idea what Zhu Yin was thinking. Facing Mo Hanyu's doubtful gaze, Zhu Yin remained calm and composed.

Mo Hanyu frowned and thought for a moment: "I can agree, but there is a condition."

"Since you don't want me to be enemies with him, then correspondingly, he shouldn't attack me. Otherwise, I will fight back."

There was nothing wrong with Mo Hanyu's condition, and Zhu Yin agreed to it, but added a prerequisite.

"It is acceptable to prove that his attack came from his heart without any external interference."

Mo Hanyu responded: "Of course."

After Zhu Yin finished the mediation, he stopped communicating with them. A black mist rose from his body, enveloping him and 27 who was lying on the ground, and he disappeared from everyone's sight.

Qiongqi raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

Ji Meng had already returned to Qin Xiao's body. Mo Hanyu looked at Qin Xiao, pinched his pulse, and injected a trace of Qi into him. Just as he was about to explore, the wrist under his finger suddenly flipped over and grabbed his wrist.

Qin Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

"You lied to me." Qin Xiao pinched Mo Hanyu's wrist and said coldly.

Mo Hanyu didn't react for a moment: "What?"

But unexpectedly, the next moment, Qin Xiao reacted first, his eyes dimmed gradually as he looked at him, and then, two lines of tears flowed out.

Mo Hanyu was terrified.

Mo Hanyu was horrified, half opening his mouth, wanting to say something, but he didn't know what was wrong with him. He could only stare at him helplessly, not knowing what position to make with his hand that was being pinched by Qin Xiao.

Qin Xiao let go of his hand, sat up, covered his face with his hands, buried his head deeply in his palms, and seemed to be choking.

He finally understood why Qiongqi said that.

Because he had signed a life and death contract with Mo Ze without knowing anything - he accepted his heart's blood, but had no idea what it meant, and Mo Ze had never told him.

This meant that if he died, Mo Ze would suffer severe heart damage and would most likely die.

But he never knew...

Mo Ze will die, most likely because of him.

Qin Xiao covered his eyes with one hand, trying to stop the tears.

This is ridiculous, why would he give him this thing and not say anything?

He also lied to himself. She had clearly said that she would wait for him to find him, but she ran away without saying a word... He spent his whole life looking for her.

And when I finally arrived in the same world as him, he had already died.

Qin Xiao sniffed his nose and wiped away the tears from his eyes.

Mo Hanyu next to him stared at him with a conflicted look on his face, opened his mouth to say something, but closed it again after seeing his expression.

Mo Hanyu originally wanted to comfort Qin Xiao, but when he met Qin Xiao's eyes and saw the grief that he could not hide, his heart suddenly ached.

"...Why are you so sad?" Mo Hanyu patted his shoulder tentatively, "Because...Mo Ze?"

Qin Xiao did not resist, took a deep breath and closed his eyes: "Yes."

Mo Hanyu was extremely conflicted. He didn't know how to comfort Qin Xiao.

You said it doesn't matter, you still have me? Although my personality is not very similar to his, we are of the same soul and look the same. Can you just treat me as him?

Or is it that even though he is good, I can learn from him?

Mo Hanyu was lost in thought. Qin Xiao sighed and touched his head.

"Let's go, we can go home now."

Qin Xiao did not bring up the topic of Mo Ze again, but chose to calm down and ignore him.

Mo Hanyu, still immersed in his own world, said: "Ah?"

Qiongqi's eyes deepened a little more.
