A figure passed over Dihuazhou like a gust of wind and reached the stone gate in the northernmost part of Liyue.

"I'm back!" Mo Ran's eyes were burning, his heart was surging like a huge wave. After thousands of years, they finally got to meet each other.

Mo Ran was only one step away from entering Mond's range, but the untimely sound of cold mechanical gears rang out.

[System restrictions, the host is not allowed to enter Mondstadt by himself, by letter, by message, etc.]

[Violation penalty: annihilation! ]

Quiet, deathly quiet, as if the whole world has stopped. It’s only one step away, yet it feels like a world away.

Mo Ran did not show any anger or threaten to do anything as one might imagine, because when people are extremely angry, they are not in the mood to think about these things.

Mo Ran casually let out the turbid air that was weighing on his heart, stepped on the peak of Shimen and made a big hole, then flew back to Jue Yunjian. Since he couldn't go back now, he would continue his life in Liyue.

Cherish the present.

…………

When he landed on the Aozang Mountain, Mo Ran saw the little girl he had saved was tormenting Master Liuyun Jiefeng.

"Master, where is the person who saved me? Please tell me, I beg you."

“How should I know? That guy has been elusive.” True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng straightened his messy tail feathers and said in a resentful tone, “Mo Ran, if you don’t give me a few more traps this time, I will find Gui Zhong!”

"Master, can you help me convey a message to my benefactor? I want to take him as my disciple!" the little girl pleaded.

"You have to go talk to him yourself, but I have to tell you that Mo Ran is not easy to get along with. Every time I go to him, I get rejected. You have to be careful."

True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng continuously transmitted bad words about a man in black standing not far away, "That guy likes to interrupt me when I'm talking. He doesn't know any manners. When he hears someone saying bad things about him, he always finds me first. Am I that bad?"

"I am not the kind of immortal who would wantonly vilify others. If there really is such an immortal, it is these guys who deserve it!"

"Yes, yes, not at all." Mo Ran walked quietly behind Master Liuyun Jiefeng, nodded like a chick pecking at rice, and sneered, "It's not like, you are exactly!"

"You, when did you come!" Master Liuyun Jiefeng took several steps back as if facing a formidable enemy, his pair of beautiful wings taut as knives.

Mo Ran's smile remained unchanged, "Just when a crane said to her face that she would not speak ill of others."

"I, I am telling you the truth. You can't do anything! Otherwise, I will report it to the Emperor. Okay... um..."

"Alright, alright, there's still a child here, you should at least pay attention to your image as an immortal! Otherwise, the impression of immortals in the eyes of the world will probably plummet."

"Hmph, I know." True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng put away his guard and said, "This kid wants to take you as his master, you can handle it yourself! I'm leaving."

True Lord Liuyun Jiefeng flew into the cave, put his ear close to the cave entrance, and activated a mechanism that amplified the sound.

Outside the cave, Mo Ran sat on a stone bench. There was tea set on the stone table in front of him. He reached out and heated a pot of tea with the power of fire element, and made a cup for himself and the little girl.

The little girl asked in a soft voice, "Uncle Benefactor, I want to be your disciple, is that ok?"

Mo Ran smiled and said, "Then tell me why you want to be my disciple."

"Because you saved me, I want to be your disciple and take care of you in my old age!" The little girl blinked her big watery eyes and said in a firm tone.

"Provide me with retirement funds? Haha." Mo Ran took a sip of tea and chuckled. His previous melancholy was swept away. Anyway, he couldn't go back now, so he might as well cherish the present.

It seems that Master Liuyun Jiefeng should not have explained to the child that although Mo Ran is a human, he is not an ordinary human and has a very long lifespan, but he did not expose it.

"Being my disciple is very tiring. Have you really thought it through?"

The little girl insisted, "I've thought about it!"

"Okay, then from today on, you will be my first disciple, Mo Ran. I don't know if you will be the last one, but our lineage is dwindling."

"Master, I bow three times to you, Shen He! Once a teacher, you are a father for life. Shen He will be your disciple from now on and will obey your arrangements in everything."

At this time, she still had black hair. After bowing three times, Shen He stood straight beside her master, waiting for his orders.

Mo Ran was not unfamiliar with this little girl, Shen He, who was originally a disciple of Master Liuyun Jiefeng. Now, because of his intervention, she had become his disciple.

The little girl was also a poor person. Her father left home when she was young and she depended on her mother for everything. Her father only came back after her mother died of illness, but he did not come to pick her up.

Instead, he believed the devil's resentful instigation and wanted to exchange his life for his wife's to revive her. He was a man who loved his wife, but he was not a competent husband, let alone a competent father.

Especially after leaving Shen He to the devil's resentment, when he turned and left, his words were heartbreaking, "You were born with this fate! You might as well die like this and bring her back..."

Shen He has the destiny of loneliness and disaster, and is prone to hurting people around her, but this is not her fault. Who wouldn't want to live a normal life?

Thinking of this, Mo Ran stretched out his big hand. Shen He saw his movement and subconsciously shrank his neck, but soon stopped moving.

Because she remembered the person in front of her, not that person, not the father who was already terminally ill.

Mo Ran gently stroked Shen He's little head and said softly: "Don't worry, no one can hurt you in the future."

"Yeah." Shen He lowered his head, and couldn't see the expression on his hungry and yellow face.

…………

Thinking that Shen He had fought with the devil for three days and was then handed over to the unreliable Liuyun Jiefeng Zhenjun, the girl should still be hungry, so Mo Ran prepared a bowl of noodles for her.

Lianxin noodles, it is said that people who eat it can feel the love of the cook. After Shen He took a few bites, he really felt warm, just like what he had eaten at home, but in fact he was just eating a bowl of hot soup noodles.

Mo Ran looked at the undulating sea of ​​clouds in various shapes and sizes, and caught a glimpse of a fairy deer flying through the air.

"Haha, Mo Ran, you're finally back." The person who came was Zhenjun Xueyue Zhuyang. With the light step of his deer hooves, he had already arrived in front of the man in black.

Mo Ran smiled faintly and said, "It's been a long time since we last met. How are you?"

“I hope you’ve been well.” True Lord Xueyue Zhuyang laughed a few times and said, “I made a bet with Yixiao before. I bet that you would break the seal and return in 500 years, and he bet for more than 400 years. It seems that I won! Haha.”

"I say, it's not good for you to gamble with me like this." Mo Ran smiled helplessly.

"It's just a way to amuse oneself occasionally, it won't hurt your body. Having said that..." True Lord Xue Yue Zhu Yang chatted with Mo Ran about many family matters. The two of them had a pretty good relationship, so naturally they talked about whatever they thought of, so there was no need to find things to talk about deliberately.

Shen He ate noodles quietly without disturbing the conversation between his master and the immortal.

After hearing that Mo Ran accepted a disciple, True Lord Xue Yue Zhu Yang looked at the girl with a little surprise. His pupils trembled at the sight. He could tell fortunes with his thoughts and saw some clues.

Just as he was about to speak, Mo Ran gave him a look, said something to Shen He, and the man and the deer walked to the edge of the cliff, enjoying the cool mountain breeze.

True Lord Xue Yue Zhu Yang said in a flurry, "This child's fate is not good, or rather, it is extremely bad. There are two kinds of fate that people should avoid the most."

"One is the fate of loneliness, which means you are destined to be separated from your friends and family and live a lonely life. The other is the fate of disasters, which means you are destined to suffer many disasters and have a dangerous life."

"The hexagram shows that this child's fate is both lonely and robbed, and he has a strong murderous nature. It is a very bad fate that is rare in a thousand years and will hurt others and himself."

"The child is still young, so there won't be any problems. But when he grows up, the evil and murderous aura in his body will reach its peak, endangering his own life and possibly hurting innocent people."

Zhenjun Xue Yue Zhu Yang looked reluctant. Perhaps it was because of Mo Ran that he looked at the child and actually felt that the child would become a great man in the future.

Mo Ran was more open-minded than True Lord Xueyue Zhuyang. "I never believe in fate or anything like that. If there is a disaster, I will do my best to protect her from it."

"It's not that easy. Fate is a matter that can't be taken lightly!" True Lord Xueyue Zhuyang said seriously, "I have a way to bind her soul with a red rope to protect her safety. However, it will restrict most of her human emotions. What do you think?"

"I'm not the person involved, why are you asking me? If Shen He is willing, then she can pester him. If not, forget it. Just follow her wishes."

Mo Ran stretched out his hand to block the bright sunshine. It was such a good day, but some people needed a red rope to lock their lives because of their fate to protect themselves. From then on, everything was like passing clouds and smoke, and it was difficult for them to enter their hearts. They were like a sculpture without seven emotions and six desires.

The law of nature is so cruel, especially to children who have suffered misfortunes since childhood.
