Chapter 73 The Girl Who Attracted the Attention of the Gods

Time is always fleeting. After their childhood dreams are shattered, many people face the reality and become part of the world that goes with the flow, whether mediocre or outstanding, with ups and downs, which are all part of life.

The wilderness that was once deserted now has a village. Although it is not large, it has all the necessary facilities. During each meal, dozens of wisps of smoke rise up, like a clear road leading from the human world to the heaven.

After the rain, the woods were filled with mist, and it felt like walking outside the world, like a dream.

There is a legend that has been circulating in the village for a long time, and the elders often tell it to the children who stay in the village. It is so wonderful.

Legend has it that more than 500 years ago, there was no one living here, but one day, immortals came and opened up a mountain here, which is the high mountain behind the village.

The villagers have passed down from generation to generation that it was a fairy cave. People originally thought that it was just a legend made up by the old people to deceive children.

However, villagers often say that they have seen fairies descending on the mountain, sometimes a fairy in green clothes and black hair, sometimes a deer walking in the air like walking on flat ground, and sometimes a crane flapping its wings in the wind.

Every month there are people who say that they have met an immortal, and have been blessed, and that they will surely become wealthy and prosperous in the future, but no one knows whether this is actually true or not.

At the foot of the mountain, there is a hidden cave. The people in the village are very awed by it because they are scared when getting close to it. Some people even fell seriously ill because of it.

Therefore, the villagers believed that it was a cave that suppressed the evil spirits, and that the immortals who came every month must have come to see whether the evil spirits had been killed.

…………

But who would have thought that this guess was actually both right and wrong. What was suppressed was the evil demon, but it was not the evil demon. It was not sealed by an immortal, but by himself.

After more than five hundred years of decline, all the filth that was absorbed into his body back then has been completely purified. The seal of five hundred years has finally been broken today!

In the cave, the rock-colored ochre seal was broken, and a human in black stood there. The tall figure had borne most of the disasters for Liyue.

He killed demons, exterminated monsters, and fought against the Dragon King Ruta. He was the eldest brother of the five Yakshas, ​​the leader of the Yakshas, ​​and served as the Grand Marshal. His name was Mo Ran.

Mo Ran had just broken through the seal he had set for himself and was still a little overwhelmed. When he looked up, he saw a tired-looking little girl fighting with the resentful spirit of the remains of the demon.

The girl, who should be no more than six or seven years old, had sharp eyes and stabbed the exorcism dagger in her hand forward. The resentment dodged it casually and hit the girl with the blow. She flew backwards and hit the wall of the cave.

The little girl tried to stand up, but she had no strength left. However, she still held the dagger in her hand and wanted to find a flaw, kill the devil, and then survive.

Perhaps this wish was too strong, which attracted the god's gaze. A shining eye of ice element appeared and fell beside the girl.

Her eyes were firm and she had only one thought in mind: to survive.

When Mo Ran saw this, it was like seeing his younger self, the same eyes, the same desire to live.

With a light sigh, Mo Ran flashed in front of the girl and blocked the resentful demon god who was about to pounce on her and devour her.

"It's you!" The resentful thought cried out in surprise, full of hatred, but was purified by Mo Ran's wave of his hand and completely turned into nothingness.

Looking back at the alert girl, she was trembling as she held the exorcism dagger. In her vague memory, there once was a man's back who would protect her like this, but now, everything was different.

However, perhaps the girl felt that the young man in front of her had no ill intentions, so she let down her guard. Fatigue rushed to her head and she felt drowsy.

Originally, he was holding on with great willpower. Now that he is safe, it is like a taut bowstring that has finally relaxed, and he is slowly returning to calm.

Mo Ran reached out to wipe the dust off her little face, and used the water element to heal the girl's injuries. He seemed to be talking to the girl in front of him, or to himself, "Poor child..."

He said that and nothing else. He gently picked up the girl and walked out of the cave. A crane swooped down from the sky, and when it saw the woman in black, the anxiety in its eyes disappeared.

"Long time no see, Liuyun."

“Well, it’s been a long time since we last met.” True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng landed on the ground, his blue crane feathers swaying gently in the wind. “Just now, this immortal sensed the aura of the devil’s resentment, so I hurried over. But since you’ve already broken the seal, it should be resolved.”

"That's just a matter of waving hands." Mo Ran smiled faintly, very calm and composed. Compared with the past, he has changed a lot.

Master Liuyun Jiefeng snorted softly, his eyes fell on the little girl in the black-clothed man's arms. She was breathing evenly and sleeping peacefully. "Where did this child come from?"

"I just picked him up. He must have been abandoned by his family. This child was fighting against the devil, and his desire was so strong that even the gods had their eyes on him. He's a good potential candidate." Mo Ran's eyes were gentle, and his voice was as light as a cloud.

Master Liuyun Jiefeng looked at the child suspiciously, then looked at Mo Ran, who was smiling, and said something shocking, "Could this child be your illegitimate child?"

Mo Ran was not surprised at all. He was used to the way this crane thought. "Do you think I have time to find a wife or hook up with women? Besides, we don't look alike."

"Of course I know that. It was just a joke to liven up the atmosphere." True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng said without blushing.

"I won't talk to you about this any more." Mo Ran put the child on the back of Master Liuyun Jiefeng and said, "I'm going to check a seal in Lishajiao. You take care of the child."

"Is this immortal willing to run errands for you?"

Mo Ran ignored him, flapped the wings on his back, and flew up into the Qingming sea of ​​clouds.

True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng could only stomp the ground with his claws, "Damn it, since you just broke through the seal, I won't bother with you."

He stretched out his wings to hold the child who was about to fall, and then Master Liuyun Jiefeng protected her with a wisp of magical power and flew back to Jueyunjian.

…………

Not far from Lingju Pass, Mo Ran fell straight down from the air. At the moment he was about to hit the ground, he stepped on the wind and landed steadily.

He glanced at the Lingju Pass, which was still heavily guarded, and smiled slightly.

Turning around, Mo Ran opened a crack in the mountain and stepped into it. The crack slowly closed without leaving any trace and without alarming anyone.

Inside the seal, Mo Ran looked at the wreckage quietly, without saying a word, not knowing what to say.

"You still dare to come! Haha, aren't you afraid of death?" A wisp of extremely violent resentment wanted to break the seal, but it was in vain, and instead made the already transparent body more scattered.

"Don't talk too much before you die. Save it for the way!" Mo Ran said coldly.

"Humph! You couldn't kill me before, and you can't kill me now! I am an immortal being."

Mo Ran flicked his fingers, and that wisp of resentment dissipated. He died completely, without any trace of his breath left. His soul had truly been destroyed.

Mo Ran purified another wisp, ready to kill the last one and then leave.

"Wait, don't kill me first! I can tell you something! It's related to this seal." The last trace of resentment was very cherishing of life.

Mo Ran only said one word, "Speak."

She did not dare to delay her resentment, fearing that this great god would wipe her out if she was in a bad mood, so she hurriedly blurted out everything, "Before, there was a very infatuated man who found this area."

"We used the information we infiltrated to have this person use exorcism to pry open a path and send a wisp of resentment out. We planned to wait until he became stronger and come back to save us."

"But before I could wait, you... came. That's all I have."

"Are you done?" Mo Ran's tone was still gloomy, as if he was suppressing his impulse to avoid erasing this resentment.

"It's gone, it's really gone. You promised not to kill me! People from Liyue don't respect contracts, do they?"

"Hehe, I do value contracts and I am considered a Liyue person. However, I did not agree to it just now, nor did I sign a contract. So, it is not impossible for me to kill you."

“You…you!”

"Let's go!" Mo Ran looked at the resentment that was filled with extreme fear, waved his hand to purify it, exhaled a breath of foul air, turned around and left.
