Faced with such a strange sight, the soldiers protecting Su Yuntian all changed their expressions and thought to themselves that something was wrong.

They drew their swords from their waists and shouted in panic, "Protect the emperor!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the people present discovered that countless scorpions were rushing out from the grass.

These scorpions were completely black, blending in with the night. If it weren't for their large numbers and the rustling sounds they made while crawling on the ground, people present would have hardly noticed their presence.

In the blink of an eye, scorpions swept in from all directions like a surging tide.

Su Yuntian frowned as he watched the East Vietnamese soldiers surrounding him who were about to attack the rushing scorpions with fire.

But at this moment, what no one present expected was that these scorpions had no intention of attacking Su Yuntian and the soldiers around him. Instead, as if driven by some mysterious force, they rushed towards the direction of Nangong Ce without hesitation.

Nangong Ce couldn't help but feel a sense of fear when he heard the flute sound. When the flute sound and countless black scorpions came at the same time, he immediately understood that all of this was aimed at him!

He tried to flee in panic, but before he could take a few steps, he was knocked to the ground by a powerful force. The scorpion tide was like a black torrent, instantly drowning him.

As Nangong Ce let out a series of shrill cries, the scorpions began to frantically drill into his body.

They drilled into his nostrils, eyes, ears and other parts of his body, chewing and devouring his brain, internal organs and flesh without mercy.

The East Vietnamese soldiers standing by looked at the endless stream of scorpions crawling all over Nangong Ce's body and heard the sound of scorpions gnawing at Nangong Ce. They couldn't help but feel their hair stand on end and tremble all over.

They were so scared that they dared not move a step, fearing that they would become the target of these scorpions the next moment.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, the scorpions retreated quickly like the tide.

The scorpions passed by Su Yuntian and the East Vietnamese soldiers without attacking them. At this time, the East Vietnamese soldiers were horrified to find that there was only a pool of blood left where Nangong Ce had just fallen.

Not far from the foot of the mountain, Nangong Min stopped playing the flute, mounted his horse, looked in the direction of Liangmen Pass, and turned away.

Just an hour ago, on the city wall of Liangmen Pass, Nangong Min turned and looked at Mu Jin as he saw the ten thousand zombie soldiers in front of him being controlled. His eyes seemed to contain thousands of words.

"Min, do you have something to tell me?"

Nangong Min nodded, but Su Yi said with a curved lip: "Thank you for your help tonight, Master. Let's talk about it when we return to the city."

Nangong Min and Mu Jin said: "I'm leaving now. I have something to say before I leave~"

Su Yi interrupted and said, "We are all old acquaintances. If you have anything to say, just talk here."

After Su Yi finished speaking, Mu Jin rolled her eyes at him, then turned to Nangong Min and said with a smile, "Let's talk over there."

Su Yi looked at Mu Jin and Nangong Min with an unhappy expression as they walked to another deserted corner of the city wall and looked at each other.

"Why do I feel like there's something wrong between Ah Jin and Nangong Min?" Mu Yan looked at Su Yi, who was unhappy, and said, "Is Ah Jin in love with Nangong Min?"

Su Yi was too lazy to pay attention to Mu Yan. He sneered and looked at the burning corpses outside the city wall, but his eyes kept staring at the direction where Mu Jin and Nangong Min were standing.

"Min, you've been busy all day, why don't you rest in the city for a night before leaving?"

Nangong Min shook his head and looked at the fire in the distant mountains, and said: "Seeing you are well, I feel relieved. Nangong Ce is over there now, it's a good opportunity."

Mu Jin knew what a good opportunity it was. It was a good opportunity to kill Nangong Ce.

Nangong Min took out a brocade box from his body and handed it to Mu Jin. Mu Jin took it and opened it. There was a pill inside.

"What is this?" Mu Jin looked at Nangong Min and asked.

"Longevity Pill."

"Is that the one your grandmother gave me?"

"No, I made it myself."

Mu Jin handed it back to Nangong Min and said, "This is too valuable. The longevity pill is a sacred object of your clan. How can you give it to someone else?"

When Mu Jin was in Nangong Divine Sect, Nangong Yun told her that every leader of Nangong Divine Sect could only refine one longevity pill in his lifetime, and it would be enshrined as a sacred object together with the longevity pills of previous leaders.

Nangong Min's eyes were red, and he whispered, "You are not her. I once promised you that I would refine pills for you."

"Min, the elixir you mentioned was not the longevity elixir."

"Do you still hate me? That's why you don't want my longevity pill?" Nangong Min choked up and said, "I'm sorry!"

"No, absolutely not. I have never hated you." Mu Jin explained anxiously. Nangong Min raised his red eyes and looked at Mu Jin. "Why not? I betrayed our oath."

"Min!" Mu Jin sighed, "There are many things that people have to do to survive in this world. The so-called betrayal in Nangong Divine Sect was not your intention. You are also a victim. It's just fate. Now you have become the leader of Nangong Divine Sect and married Bai Ling'er. Your child will be born soon. We should all learn to forget the past and live a good life."

"You have forgotten, right?" Nangong Min asked anxiously, "But I can't forget. Although my grandmother threatened to die, I had to marry Bai Ling'er, but except for that time when I touched Bai Ling'er because I was drugged, I have never touched her since then, and I won't in the future."

"Min! Don't be like this, forget the past and let yourself go, okay?"

"I'm sorry! I know you don't like me like this, and I don't like myself like this either."

Nangong Min handed the brocade box to Mu Jin again: "I broke my promise to stay with you for the rest of my life, but I don't want to fail to fulfill the promise I made to you in the cave that day to refine the elixir for you."

Mu Jin sighed in her heart. Nangong Min had saved her countless times. Even if they parted ways, Nangong Min would always be a very important person in her heart. If she didn't accept him, with Nangong Min's temper, he would probably always regret it.

"Ah Jin! This may be the last time we meet. The longevity pill can cure all diseases, detoxify and prolong life. With it by your side, at least I can leave with peace of mind."

Mu Jin pursed her lips and took the brocade box from Nangong Min's hand, "Then thank you!"

Seeing that Mu Jin was willing to accept his longevity pill, Nangong Min curled his lips happily. However, when he thought that it would be difficult for him to see Mu Jin again in the future, he couldn't help feeling sad.

"Ah Jin~Are you and Su Yi together?"

Mu Jin shook his head, then nodded again as if he had thought of something, and said, "Not yet, but soon."

Nangong Min knew the answer would be like this, but he still felt as if his heart was cut by a knife. He pulled the corners of his mouth hard and smiled: "He is fine. I feel relieved to have him protecting you!"

Mu Jin nodded, and Nangong Min smiled and said, "Ah Jin, I'm leaving now. You must take good care of yourself in the future. If you need me, please write to me."

Mu Jin raised his head, looked at Nangong Min and said with a smile: "I see, then you have to be good in the future too!"

"Yeah!" Nangong Min choked up and laughed, "We'll all be fine!"

After Nangong Min finished speaking, he stared at Mu Jin for a while, as if he wanted to engrave Mu Jin's appearance firmly in his mind.

Finally, he smiled, took a step forward, and hugged Mu Jin tightly in his arms. But before Mu Jin could react, he let go of Mu Jin, turned around and flew down the city wall, disappearing into the vast night in an instant.
