Mo Jue walked over step by step, with a familiar smile on his face, and asked softly: "Chu Chu, who are you talking to? Can't you tell uncle? You said before that you only like uncle, is it possible that you have changed now? Uncle is so sad."

He said this as he walked over with his head lowered, looking sad.

Seeing this, Chu Chu felt extremely guilty: "Uncle, I didn't do that. I was just too lonely and wanted to talk to someone, so I... brought my handsome brother back. He's a good person and won't hurt me."

He muttered quietly, "There's only one head left. Even if I want to hurt anyone, I can't. Why would my uncle come? It's over. It's definitely over now."

Just when he was losing consciousness, his arm felt tight and he was pulled into someone's arms. The quilt was suddenly lifted, revealing Li Shang's weird face. At this moment, their eyes met and Mo Jue's expression changed instantly.

He retreated repeatedly, his eyes filled with horror: "Chu Chu, how did you bring it back? Do you know how dangerous it is? It's a monster that drinks blood. Let's go, get out of here quickly."

Mo Jue opened the door and shouted, "Someone come here!!"

Chu Chu didn't understand what was going on. He looked at his uncle, then at the head on the bed, confused: "Uncle, what's wrong with you? Don't you like him? If you don't like him, then I... just send him back. Don't hurt him."

"Silly child, you are too young to know how terrifying that thing is. Now he only has a head left. He was the one who hurt your mother and almost killed her."

"Ah, it hurts mother, why, he only has one head."

Mo Jue tightened his grip, looked at the things on the bed, and narrowed his eyes: "I didn't expect that you could still seduce a child even in this state. What do you want to do? Is it for Chuchu's blood? You really deserve to die."

Li Shang didn't say anything, but with a complicated look in his eyes, he looked at Chu Chu and asked in a low voice: "No, I never thought of hurting Chu Chu. This is just a coincidence. She was too lonely, so she sneaked into the ice cellar."

"As for bringing me back, it was just so that you could have one more person to talk to. I know I did a lot of evil things in the past, but now I only have a head left. If I don't put my body back together, I won't be able to use all my magical powers."

"Don't worry about me hurting her. Even if she is a venerable, she is still a little girl. I won't harm a child."

Mo Jue sneered upon hearing this, his eyes full of coldness: "Really? How did those children die? You don't need me to help you recall it. Go to where you should go. If you dare to get close to Chu Chu again, I will have to send you to the lava and hang you there."

"You should know what that place is like."

Li Shang remained silent. Now that he was at the mercy of the enemy, he naturally had no right to say no. But he really had not thought of hurting Chu Chu. As for why, he did not know. It seemed that the closer he was to Chu Chu, the less violent he felt.

The voice was deep: "Whether you believe it or not, I have never thought of hurting Chu Chu. Otherwise, I would have had many opportunities to suck her blood dry, but I didn't do it."

"Just because you don't have it now doesn't mean you won't have it in the future."

The guard in charge walked over quickly. When he saw the head on the bed, his eyes went dark and he almost fainted. He fell to his knees on the ground and stammered, "Master, it's all because I didn't keep a close eye on you."

Mo Jue glanced at him calmly, smiling, but there was no smile in his eyes, and he was cold: "Go quickly and take him back. Check on him once a day. If he is lost again, you will..."

They knew what was said after that, and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, don't worry, Master. We will check every day in the future. This kind of thing will never happen again. I hope you don't tell the princess, otherwise we are afraid that our lives will be in danger."

"Take him away first and keep him under strict guard."

Chuchu wanted to say something, but her eyes were covered, and she felt a little aggrieved: "Uncle, he really won't hurt me, why did you take him there, it's so cold, there's no one there, it's so lonely."

Mo Jue and the others left and closed the door. The little girl sat down, squatted down and said softly: "Chu Chu, if you are lonely, just move in with your brother and sister. It's good to have them accompany you, but not that person."

"A few years ago, your mother almost died at his hands. If you keep him by your side, what would happen if he hurt you? Have you ever thought about it?"

"I understand. No matter who it is, it is unacceptable to hurt my mother. Since he is such a bad guy, why didn't they kill him? Why did they keep him in the ice cellar?"

"…This matter is very complicated. You are still too young. You won't understand it even if I tell you. When you grow up, if you want to know, I will tell you everything. Go find your aunt tonight and I will read you a story."

Chuchu hummed, very obediently: "Okay, uncle, I will be obedient."

"Good boy, Chuchu is really sensible."

One year later

Jiang Limoyuan came back and went straight to the ice cellar. It was unknown what they said. A few days later, the heads in the ice cellar disappeared, and along with them, some bodies that were suppressed by other countries disappeared.

In the study, Mo Yuan was silent for a long time while reading the letter.

The two looked at each other, and Jiang Li said softly: "It seems that he could have gone out a long time ago, but I don't know why he waited until now. Pay more attention to him and see what he wants to do."

For many days, there was no movement at all, but some things would often appear inexplicably in front of Chuchu's door, including various children's toys and food from all over the world, and there were no two the same things every day.

in the room

Several people sat at the table. Chuchu stood on a stool, picking at the things, smiling happily: "Mom, look, this is so good-looking, and this is delicious, it's from Lancheng, he said..."

Jiang Li narrowed his eyes: "He said, who is he?"

"Well, he is just a handsome brother. These things were given to me by him. I also gave him delicious and fun things before. Now I can't go out, so he went out and brought them to me."

"Although we don't know his purpose, he has indeed not harmed Chuchu in the past few years. Let's observe him first. It's not easy to catch him. We can only deal with him if there is a real problem. Anyway, Chuchu is getting older and his abilities will become stronger."

Mo Yuan glanced at his daughter, frowning, "Well, let's just wait and see what he means. Now we can only fight back."

Eight years later

When she just came of age, she packed her bags and went out to gain experience with her shadow guard. No matter what she encountered along the way, she was always able to turn danger into safety. In fact, she could feel that the man had been following her, but just didn't come out.

Li Shang hid in the dark, just watching the little girl's bright smile. His memory was brought back to many years ago, when he was still a human being. He also had a daughter, but it was a pity because he... died.

Now being able to protect the little girl brought him more happiness than killing, so he decided to wait and not kill anyone for the time being. He felt very uncomfortable when he thought about the fear and disgust in the little girl's eyes when he killed someone.
